Listener comments!
	2:01pm cherylflute: digging the sounds , hi Dave and Fay , stay cool
	2:04pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ cherylflute @2:01 stay in s'cool cheryl...
	2:07pm Dean: Quite a discography Ms. Victor has! Her husband wrote a thesis on circus music!
	2:08pm Dean: And a certain Dave Sewelson performs on and engineered a recent recording with her husband.
	2:08pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ Dean @2:08 Dean...you is in the know now...
	2:09pm Dean: A-n-d she sings on one of Anthony Braxton GTM recordings. Yikes, a lot to hear and learn about!
	🥁 2:13pm WR: Hello Dave, honoured guest Fay Victor and streaming folks.
	2:15pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ WR @2:13 hey WR....
	2:18pm wimpy: July 24th is national tequila day, just btw
	2:24pm Dean: Yes, Carmen Sings Monk, great album.
	2:27pm adamdoesit: Hey Dave and Fay. Carmen Sings Monk was a formative jazz album for me. Carmen was uncommonly wise. She knew the answer, that time's a dancer. She knew you can't pack up the moment and take it with you on the road, so now is the time.
	2:32pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ adamdoesit @2:27 talk about it adamdoesit....
	2:33pm Dave Sewelson: if you have any questions for Fay...let us know....
	2:35pm wimpy: This is great stuff! I’ll definitely have to check out the album
	2:40pm Dean: I'm curious about her work in "rave." I see examples from the '90s in her discography. What drew her to it?
	2:40pm Dean: The dog was saying, "Pay attention to me!"
	2:46pm Dean: Thanks. Such a curious trajectory!
	2:51pm Dean: "I Hate Being President," live, with Branch et al. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWx4qRPLeZc
	2:57pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Song: "take over the world" by "jaimie branch" I'm sad and annoyed that Jaimie Branch died so damn young. I'm glad that her friends and collaborators made sure the last album she was working on got finished up and released posthumously.
	2:59pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ Jeff Moore @2:57 yeah Jeff......
	3:02pm Dave Sewelson: ticketing.jazz.org...
	3:06pm doctorjazz: Hi Free Folks!
	3:09pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ doctorjazz @3:06 hey doc....
	3:29pm Dave Sewelson: www.fayvictor.com...
	3:43pm Dean: Who is playing bassoon here? I was out for a bit, just in case you already announced it.
	3:45pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ Dean @3:43 Maribel Alonso
	3:46pm Dean: Thanks.
	🥁 3:46pm fred: Insightful Fellowship of Uselessness, just playing along; but that sounds like the motto of the left here
	3:47pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ fred @3:46 I Feel U fred....
	3:48pm Dean: So this is Big Bambi?
	3:49pm Dean: Cool photo here: https://www.bassoonandbassguitar.com/
	3:52pm Dean: Portabarivoicebass?
	3:55pm Dean: I would love to hear Ms. Victor sing recent Supreme Court opinions, e.g., this first line from the majority opinion (lyrics J. Thomas) in Garland v. Cargill: Congress has long restricted access to “‘machinegun[s],’ ”a category of firearms defined by the ability to “shoot, automatically more than one shot . . . by a single function of the trigger.”
	3:57pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ Dean @3:55 I will sing that for you Dean....
	3:59pm Dean: I'm perfectly serious, by the way. Supreme Court and other legal writings can be dry and infuriating, but approached from the right angle they can be poetically revealing.
	4:05pm Dean: Sounded great here, too.
	🥁 4:13pm fred: ↳ Dean @3:59 You remind me of Kenny G reading weather reports. Infuriating and repetitive, but it revealed something
	4:16pm Dean: On the money, @fred, though there is a difference, too. Judicial opinions try to persuade, to foreclose alternatives, pontificate, and feign objectivity. Among all that you get phrases like "single function of a trigger," which happens to be the crux of the case. I may very well use that phrase in a poem.
	🥁 4:21pm fred: ↳ Dean @4:16 My point (assuming there's one, which is a stretch) is that switching the conventions can help see what's actually being said, what remains when you ridiculously switch the jargon
	4:24pm Dean: No, that is a point, for sure. In part, this is what poetry routinely accomplishes by adapting to lyric the syntax, diction, and meter of a-poetic modes of discourse. This Dunston is hitting the spot.
	4:26pm Dean: Local classical label Music & Arts is having a sale. If you enjoy, say, solo Bach keyboard recitals, dig in. To receive the discount, simply enter the code 25%DISCOUNT into the “APPLY COUPON” box in the shopping cart. https://musicandarts.com/shop/ The Tilney Bach Partitas is amazing!
	4:27pm doctorjazz: Also digging this Dunston! (went out for a quick haircut/beard trim, looking neat)
	🥁 4:27pm WR: ↳ Song: "Fully Turbulent" by "Nick Dunston" I give it a 110% turbulence rating. Remarkable follow to the Maestro Mayfield tract.
	4:28pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ doctorjazz @4:27 whats the matter, your barber won't cut your hair any longer doc?
	🥁 4:28pm WR: track...
	🥁 4:28pm fred: ↳ doctorjazz @4:27 pics or it didn't happen!
	4:28pm Dean: The title of this album is marvelous! Now somebody needs to take it into metal territory with Blackity Black Black Sabbathy Sabbath Sabbath.
	4:29pm Dean: I really want to hear Ms. Victor performing Braxton.
	🥁 4:30pm fred: ↳ Dean @4:28 That's Wendy territory there
	🥁 4:30pm WR: ↳ Dave Sewelson @4:28 Dave, you working on material for the Catskills (even those gigs are getting scarce).
	4:31pm Dean: Fay Victor covers "Fairies Wear Boots"?
	4:32pm Dean: A Herbie Nichols t-shirt?! Oh, hell, yeah.
	🥁 4:35pm fred: No tour dates in Europe, unfortunately
	🥁 4:36pm WR: Thank you, Fay, for sharing your work and these other great tracks with us.
	4:38pm Dean: @fred: If I had the wherewithal, I'd head to Europe this coming fall to shadow Seattle speed-punk band Zeke, whom I've recently seen live twice. I almost flew to Portland, OR, for a third show, but being a husband and dad I made a stupidly prudent choice not to do it. If you have a chance to hear them--assuming you like loud and fast and excessive sensory overload--check them out.
	4:45pm Observations: ↳ Song: "The Culprit Is You" by "Fay Victor / Herbie Nicho... Love Herbie, love Fay Victor’s SUNG project & album, love this show. I’ll be going live in about 15 minutes with Five Hours of music my John Coltrane compatriot DONALD RAFAEL GARRETT Here ➡️ wfmu.org...
	🥁 4:45pm fred: ↳ Dean @4:38 As usual, nothing nearby! We suffer from a dearth of venues between say the basement of a bar and 2000. There are a few, "few" being the keyword. So interesting gigs are hard to find, Paris is just not on the map. The olympics will not help
	4:45pm Dean: Wow, this Talib Rakul Hakim appears on a record with Rzewski and Bolcolm. Remarkable.
	4:45pm Observations: ↳ Observations @4:45 *by
	4:47pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ Observations @4:45 Go GO GO GO!
	4:47pm Dean: Fantastic, David! Garrett worked with Kali Fasteau, yes? The Olympics in Paris: Relax. I was in LA in '84. It was the best summer to be in LA. No traffic, and an amazing arts festival, to boot.
	4:47pm Dave Sewelson: ↳ Observations @4:45 www.wfmu.org...
	4:51pm Observations: ↳ Dean @4:47 Yes
	4:53pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Lady Sings the Blues" by "Fay Victor / Herbie Nic... GREAT!
	4:55pm doctorjazz: Thanks Fay and David!
	4:56pm Dave Sewelson: Thanks all you listenears!
	4:57pm Dean: I didn't know about Ben. Still, sad. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/15/arts/ben-vautier-dead.html?unlocked_article_code=1.z00.wUIS.mHsTbY7Kjpmn&smid=url-share
	4:57pm DavidJ: Beautiful show! Thanks Fay and Dave!
