Listener comments!
	10:00pm Gary: I'mma jump in bed with the app
	10:01pm drowsy: I hope you are truly post-Covid Gary! Hi Sam!
	10:02pm Sam Segal: I echo drowsy's hope, Gary!
	10:03pm Sam Segal: This song reminds me of your old-school hip-hop shows, Gary. I love those shows!
	10:03pm northguineahills: a chicken a car, and the car won't go, that's how you spell chicago....
	10:05pm Sam Segal: NGH! Why did the Chicago cross the road?
	10:07pm drowsy: To get to Harold's chicken!
	10:08pm northguineahills: it saw Gary's (IN) bodega pop
	10:09pm drowsy: nice one.
	10:09pm doctorjazz: Quick hi, digging Light Touch Band (sounds like early hip hop, but don't remember it). Will take off for Headspace, maybe catch you again on the other side.
	10:10pm drowsy: OH HELL YES.
	10:10pm Sam Segal: Can't hear a Chicago song without thinking of this one.
	10:10pm drowsy: O'Douls, brats, and a softball the size of your head, yeah....
	10:11pm Sam Segal: Thanks for checking in, Doc! Hope we catch you in the glow of mindfulness later this evening.
	🥁 10:12pm WR: What's with that label on that photo, Marginal Street?
	10:13pm Gary via app: I missed the first track, crying!
	10:13pm drowsy: West Street photobombin again...
	10:15pm northguineahills: B = boro (1=Manhattan, 2 = bronx, 3 = brooklyn, 4 = queens, 5 = SI) Block (randomly assigned/borp) Lot (randomly assigned/block)
	🥁 10:16pm WR: one could play a tribute to?
	10:18pm northguineahills: what if you tribute a play?
	10:18pm Gary via app: Oh yeah this one is good
	10:18pm zzz: dying with that song. going to visit my brother in chicago next month definitely going to be listening to that one
	🥁 10:21pm WR: Super Djata Band ! Just when I thought I was fading great music comes through!
	10:21pm Sam Segal: Haha, I'm glad you could appreciate that one, zzz. Show your brother the song. I bet he sees guys like Kenny Dennis all the time.
	10:21pm Sam Segal: (Do) Not Fade Away, WR!
	10:24pm zzz: good description of this from the bandcamp page: Connecting Wasulu hunter music, griot praises, Senufo pastoral dances, Fula and Mandingo repertoire alongside Western psychedelia, blues and afro-beat, Zani Diabaté’s Super Djata Band de Bamako was among Mali’s top orchestras by the late 1970’s well into the mid-1980’s. Tracked live inside Radio Mali’s raw but inspiring studio in January 1982, En Super Forme was briefly available via Côte d'Ivoire’s Musique Mondiale imprint. The album centers around Diabaté and his electric guitar’s pyrotechnics, a relentless shredder that stands shoulder to shoulder with Mali’s fingerstyle gods Ali Farka Touré and Rail Band's legendary Djelimady Tounkara.
	10:24pm zzz: 1200line.bandcamp.com...
	10:25pm northguineahills: burkinabe funk!
	10:26pm rw: Good evening! I have a copy of that Super Djata Band EP but it seems to be an unofficial release (according to Discogs). Do I need to turn it in to the authorities?
	10:26pm Sam Segal: A relentless shredder indeed, zzz. I think I first encountered Super Djata Band on Doug's show many years ago. Amazing group.
	10:27pm Sam Segal: rw, if you're guilty, then I'm guilty too...I've got the 2013 reissue of Vol. 2, which must also be unsanctioned. Oh dear.
	🥁 10:27pm WR: rw: all unofficial releases should be sent to me for a full investigation.
	10:29pm coelacanth∅: 'evening Sam and stablemates
	10:29pm rw: It's cool Sam. Seems WR's got us covered.
	10:30pm Sam Segal: Late-summer's greetings, Coel!
	10:31pm coelacanth∅: late summer? are you in a different time-zone than i?!
	10:31pm rw: Sounding super by the way.
	10:32pm northguineahills: more summer behind us then ahead of us, but i'd still consider it mid-summer....
	10:32pm Sam Segal: You wouldn't call this late-summer yet? Are we in early-late-summer?
	10:33pm Sam Segal: Hey, I'm prepared to consider this mid-summer. I'm all for mid-summer.
	10:33pm Dean: My kids start school on Monday. Summer is over.
	10:33pm coelacanth∅: i wouldn't. late summer starts sometime in september. technically we're just past the 1/2way point.
	10:35pm rw: But my kid doesn't start until the end of September. Maybe summer is relative.
	10:35pm northguineahills: schools down here started this week....
	10:35pm Sam Segal: Yeah, I guess I still think of summer lasting until school starts at the end of August/early September.
	10:36pm coelacanth∅: school that starts within the first 1/2 of august is summer school.
	10:37pm rw: In any case, summers were way better when we were kids.
	10:37pm coelacanth∅: ...and should be illegal.
	10:37pm zzz: my friends who are school teachers are more depressed right now about summer ending/school year starting than all the neighborhood kids, hah
	10:39pm zzz: was the the sound of a leaf?? the one that sounds like a pan flute?
	10:40pm Sam Segal: It was the one that sounded like a saxophone.
	10:41pm StringOFperils: Hello Sam 'n' all!
	10:41pm rw: Did I mention the show is sounding super? Thanks Sam. The sounds of summer indeed.
	10:42pm Sam Segal: Thank you for saying so, rw!
	10:43pm Sam Segal: Good to see you, String!
	10:44pm coelacanth∅: 2 songs ago did remind me of peruvian panpipe music
	10:44pm coelacanth∅: ...maybe a particular song
	10:44pm coelacanth∅: hey StringO'
	10:45pm StringOFperils: I was hearing that too coel; I thought it was the Doug stream
	10:45pm northguineahills: @coel: considering ecuador is just to the north of peru....
	10:49pm doctorjazz: Back here, hi again!
	10:52pm coelacanth∅: someone gave me a cassette, c.1990, of a peruvian group - panpipes, little guitars...a version of el condor pasa... i was dazzled and thought i was pretty hip to add this to my musical knowledge; but was soon to learn that an influx of panpipe groups playing on streets, at fairs, in subways. . . had made that style of music quite fashionable in the "mainstream".
	10:53pm Dean: We're still trying to specify our relative temporal situation? "Mid-late"? "Not quite late"? We are where we are, aren't we?
	10:53pm Sam Segal: Doc! Glad to have you back.
	10:54pm Sam Segal: @NGH, just remembered I owe you an email.
	10:54pm northguineahills: @coel: then you saw the zamfir ads late at night on uhf tv.... ;p
	10:54pm Sam Segal: We are halfway to somewhere, Dean! That's all I know.
	10:56pm coelacanth∅: i yam where i yam - wherever that is
	10:56pm Sam Segal: @Coel, I think things have swung back around the other way where liking Peruvian pan flute music despite its ubiquity in those settings has become cool.
	10:58pm coelacanth∅: ah. ... so, i can like it again? ngh i admit i have never heard of "zamfir"
	10:59pm Sam Segal: It is the perfect time to like it again!
	10:59pm northguineahills: nagisa ni te! @coel: I remember late nights watching tv at home after returning from japan, and seeing the infomercials (this would have been around 1990)
	11:00pm zzz: huh. just learned that zamfir is romanian
	11:01pm Dean: Zamfir delivered a certain amount of classical recital recordings. He covered his bases.
	11:10pm coelacanth∅: just looked up Zamfir. he looks somewhat familiar, but i don't think i've seen his infomercials. ...but i'm slightly intrigued. wikipedia says he plays overtones on the pan flute.
	11:10pm northguineahills: always found it nice tenniscoats found themselves on the swedish free folk label, hapna...
	11:10pm rw: Sam, as far as Zamfir goes, DON'T DO IT!!!
	11:11pm doctorjazz: Like this Tenniscoats!
	11:11pm coelacanth∅: hahahaa
	11:12pm StringOFperils: ^what doc jazz said
	11:13pm Sam Segal: Not even as bed music during my microphone breaks, rw?
	11:14pm coelacanth∅: wfmu playlist search says Zamfir's been played 6 times on fmu; but 4 of those times are shows that are known to play music for reasons other than that it's "good"!
	11:14pm Sam Segal: Glad you dug the Tenniscoats, Doc and String. So much great folky avant-pop from Japan that hits my ear perfectly. Tenniscoats is definitely one of those bands.
	11:16pm coelacanth∅: oh, and 5 more times logged as Gheorghe Zamfir. i'm going to check it out. soon.
	11:17pm rw: Sam, you can do what you like. I was half joking. But only half. I believe in you.
	11:19pm Sam Segal: I'm not sure I've ever heard Zamfir before. You all have peaked my interest...
	11:20pm Dean: ??? Zamfir was huge. You've all heard him, trust me. And it's "piqued."
	11:20pm rw: Looking forward to that Zamfir bed music next week!
	11:20pm doctorjazz: Zamfir is not a familiar name to me either (not that that's so unusual...)
	11:21pm Sam Segal: Piqued!
	11:21pm Dean: I gotta watch out, though. Ken suspended me for "heckling" the DJs. I have no idea what he's talking about, but "peaked"/"piqued" might be an example.
	11:21pm doctorjazz: If you're looking into it, it's "peeked"
	11:22pm zzz: definitely a time when zamfir seemed ubiquitous. my mom was a big fan!
	11:22pm Sam Segal: You're welcome to correct my typos any time, Dean.
	11:23pm northguineahills: oh, wow, i step away, and find myself in planet e land....that takes me waaaaaaay back!
	11:24pm Dean: Thanks, Sam. I don't want to be a pedantic dick, even if on occasion I am.
	11:26pm coelacanth∅: it's fairly frequent that someone tells me i've definitely heard of something, when i definitely have not. it's easily possible to have never heard of him.
	11:27pm northguineahills: actually, "peaked' in this instance would be correct, as I can guarantee that anyone's interest in zamfir, once made aware, will only decline after first hearing that zamfir's music exists....
	11:27pm doctorjazz: One can be piqued at misspelling piqued, though that makes my head spin.
	11:29pm coelacanth∅: i peeked into peeked/piqued a long time ago. i didn't feel the need to mention it.
	11:30pm coelacanth∅: (i should say "peeked/piqued/peaked")
	11:30pm Ike: As a copy editor, this is the kind of DJ openness I can get behind -- the kind that's open to irritating stridency and pedantry like mine!
	11:31pm coelacanth∅: "shazzamiddit"
	11:31pm rw: I'm peaking right now.
	11:33pm rw: Okay, I'm crossing the line. Please disregard that last comment. Far too silly.
	11:34pm Dean: The closest OED entry reads: "a. transitive. To stimulate or provoke (a person) to action, esp. by arousing jealousy, etc.; to arouse (a feeling, esp. curiosity or interest). Occasionally intransitive." I never registered the negative valence. It means to anger or annoy. Curious...
	11:34pm Sam Segal: I find the copy editing helpful! This show is a collaborative endeavor. You all help me pronounce non-English words and names, improve my spelling...it is a good arrangement we have here, I think.
	11:35pm rw: Good point, Sam. We're all piquing.
	11:36pm doctorjazz: I'm feeling a bit peaked, will have to hit the hay, (do love szmidt, though), catch the rest tomorrow in the morning pre-live-drummer-stream space. Thanks, Sam, night all!
	11:36pm northguineahills: @dean: i believe that is the original definition. The one you used earlier is the more common one used today (i can't think of any usage of pique 'to arouse jealousy' except in older manuscripts...
	11:37pm coelacanth∅: you're far too silly rw. i'm never silly. silliness is for silly people.
	11:37pm Sam Segal: Sleep well, Doc! Catch you in the archives.
	11:37pm northguineahills: I'm following dr jazz in 10 mins...
	11:38pm rw: Good night DrJazz; coelacanth!!
	11:39pm rw: cc stay serious!!
	11:40pm coelacanth∅: i'm seriously silly
	11:40pm rw: Sweet summer dreams, ngh. In 10 mins...
	11:41pm rw: In The Deep Drift You Will Find The Most Serene Of Lullabies
	11:45pm Sam Segal: In The Deep Drift You Will Find The Most Serene Of Horses
	11:45pm Dean: I have no problem with the OED definition's tilt toward negativity, partly because it's qualified by "esp.," which means that stimulation/provocation absent negativity also fits. I never realized before tonight that it carries a negative quality. Being something of a contrarian, I like the idea that when something piques my interest it is because something about it irks me.
	11:47pm rw: In The Deep Drift You Will Define The Most Serene Of Horses
	🥁 11:51pm WR: Ah, have been listening but way behind reading the comments.
	11:56pm zzz: beautiful sounds
	🥁 11:57pm WR: I have a Zamfir story but looks like we are out of time. Have I piqued your interest? Thank you for the sound track Sam. Thank you for the comments, commentors. Onward,
	11:58pm rw: Super. Thanks. Good night all. Next time WR!
	11:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Sam!
	11:59pm coelacanth∅: 'night all. $¢ is away and Pedro will play, for those not sleeping any time soon
	12:01am rw: As long as we're doing pronunciations... coelacanth sounds more like seal a canth.
	12:02am rw: 'Night Sam. Happy Summer!
	12:02am coelacanth∅: sweet midsummer's night dreams
	12:03am coelacanth∅: (or midsummer night's dreams)

	11:14pm coelacanth∅: wfmu playlist search says Zamfir's been played 6 times on fmu; but 4 of those times are shows that are known to play music for reasons other than that it's "good"!
	11:14pm Sam Segal: Glad you dug the Tenniscoats, Doc and String. So much great folky avant-pop from Japan that hits my ear perfectly. Tenniscoats is definitely one of those bands.
	11:16pm coelacanth∅: oh, and 5 more times logged as Gheorghe Zamfir. i'm going to check it out. soon.
	11:17pm rw: Sam, you can do what you like. I was half joking. But only half. I believe in you.
	11:19pm Sam Segal: I'm not sure I've ever heard Zamfir before. You all have peaked my interest...
	11:20pm Dean: ??? Zamfir was huge. You've all heard him, trust me. And it's "piqued."
	11:20pm rw: Looking forward to that Zamfir bed music next week!
	11:20pm doctorjazz: Zamfir is not a familiar name to me either (not that that's so unusual...)
	11:21pm Sam Segal: Piqued!
	11:21pm Dean: I gotta watch out, though. Ken suspended me for "heckling" the DJs. I have no idea what he's talking about, but "peaked"/"piqued" might be an example.
	11:21pm doctorjazz: If you're looking into it, it's "peeked"
	11:22pm zzz: definitely a time when zamfir seemed ubiquitous. my mom was a big fan!
	11:22pm Sam Segal: You're welcome to correct my typos any time, Dean.
	11:23pm northguineahills: oh, wow, i step away, and find myself in planet e land....that takes me waaaaaaay back!
	11:24pm Dean: Thanks, Sam. I don't want to be a pedantic dick, even if on occasion I am.
	11:26pm coelacanth∅: it's fairly frequent that someone tells me i've definitely heard of something, when i definitely have not. it's easily possible to have never heard of him.
	11:27pm northguineahills: actually, "peaked' in this instance would be correct, as I can guarantee that anyone's interest in zamfir, once made aware, will only decline after first hearing that zamfir's music exists....
	11:27pm doctorjazz: One can be piqued at misspelling piqued, though that makes my head spin.
	11:29pm coelacanth∅: i peeked into peeked/piqued a long time ago. i didn't feel the need to mention it.
	11:30pm coelacanth∅: (i should say "peeked/piqued/peaked")
	11:30pm Ike: As a copy editor, this is the kind of DJ openness I can get behind -- the kind that's open to irritating stridency and pedantry like mine!
	11:31pm coelacanth∅: "shazzamiddit"
	11:31pm rw: I'm peaking right now.
	11:33pm rw: Okay, I'm crossing the line. Please disregard that last comment. Far too silly.
	11:34pm Dean: The closest OED entry reads: "a. transitive. To stimulate or provoke (a person) to action, esp. by arousing jealousy, etc.; to arouse (a feeling, esp. curiosity or interest). Occasionally intransitive." I never registered the negative valence. It means to anger or annoy. Curious...
	11:34pm Sam Segal: I find the copy editing helpful! This show is a collaborative endeavor. You all help me pronounce non-English words and names, improve my spelling...it is a good arrangement we have here, I think.
	11:35pm rw: Good point, Sam. We're all piquing.
	11:36pm doctorjazz: I'm feeling a bit peaked, will have to hit the hay, (do love szmidt, though), catch the rest tomorrow in the morning pre-live-drummer-stream space. Thanks, Sam, night all!
	11:36pm northguineahills: @dean: i believe that is the original definition. The one you used earlier is the more common one used today (i can't think of any usage of pique 'to arouse jealousy' except in older manuscripts...
	11:37pm coelacanth∅: you're far too silly rw. i'm never silly. silliness is for silly people.
	11:37pm Sam Segal: Sleep well, Doc! Catch you in the archives.
	11:37pm northguineahills: I'm following dr jazz in 10 mins...
	11:38pm rw: Good night DrJazz; coelacanth!!
	11:39pm rw: cc stay serious!!
	11:40pm coelacanth∅: i'm seriously silly
	11:40pm rw: Sweet summer dreams, ngh. In 10 mins...
	11:41pm rw: In The Deep Drift You Will Find The Most Serene Of Lullabies
	11:45pm Sam Segal: In The Deep Drift You Will Find The Most Serene Of Horses
	11:45pm Dean: I have no problem with the OED definition's tilt toward negativity, partly because it's qualified by "esp.," which means that stimulation/provocation absent negativity also fits. I never realized before tonight that it carries a negative quality. Being something of a contrarian, I like the idea that when something piques my interest it is because something about it irks me.
	11:47pm rw: In The Deep Drift You Will Define The Most Serene Of Horses
	🥁 11:51pm WR: Ah, have been listening but way behind reading the comments.
	11:56pm zzz: beautiful sounds
	🥁 11:57pm WR: I have a Zamfir story but looks like we are out of time. Have I piqued your interest? Thank you for the sound track Sam. Thank you for the comments, commentors. Onward,
	11:58pm rw: Super. Thanks. Good night all. Next time WR!
	11:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Sam!
	11:59pm coelacanth∅: 'night all. $¢ is away and Pedro will play, for those not sleeping any time soon
	12:01am rw: As long as we're doing pronunciations... coelacanth sounds more like seal a canth.
	12:02am rw: 'Night Sam. Happy Summer!
	12:02am coelacanth∅: sweet midsummer's night dreams
	12:03am coelacanth∅: (or midsummer night's dreams)
