WFMU: The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from December 22, 2024

Listener comments!
	🕰 6:00pm Listener Gregory: Festive holiday clock.
	6:02pm spodiodi: Greetings, DJ Peter and all!
	6:02pm doctorjazz: Welcome back DJ Peter. Out with family, catch up tomorrow (As usual).
	🕰 6:03pm Listener Gregory: Do you have a new mic, Peter? Your voice sounds a bit echoey or something.
	6:06pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:03 Thanks for spending your pre-holiday Sunday with me, Gregory, spodiodi, doc (well, doc only sort of spending it here). Some stuff going on here that is making the sound challenging... I think you must be hearing that.
	🕰 6:06pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:06 I did not ask whether you were broadcasting under water, but I was tempted.
	6:06pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Par la terre et le nuageux" by "Orchestre Nationa... One of the previous recordings: www.discogs.com...
	6:08pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @6:06 Also this one: www.discogs.com...
	6:10pm DJ Peter: I gather "Anna Livia Plurabelle" is a character in Finnegan's Wake.
	🕰 6:11pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:10 Yes, if there ARE characters in that book (which I have not read).
	6:12pm DJ Peter: I've read about five pages. Took me several weeks.
	6:24pm adamdoesit: Hi DJ Peter and horologists. We watched Laura (1944) last night, featuring the famous theme so many times and ways, there must've been a special. And clocks! Clocks galore. Or two important ones anyway, made by MacGuffin and Co. (Paris).
	6:26pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:24 A classic but one that I'm not sure has held up? But yes, many clocks! PS It's weird to see Vincent Price in that context.
	6:29pm Doug Schulkind: Sir Peter!
	6:30pm adamdoesit: ↳ DJ Peter @6:26 I felt it held up. Not contemporary, but taut. I thought the Price was the Winchell character; instead he was the dumb lug! The omnipresence of the theme made me think of (of all things) Mr. Hulot's Holday.
	6:30pm DJ Peter: ↳ Doug Schulkind @6:29 My liege!
	6:32pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:30 the byplay between Clifton Webb and Dana Andrews is very funny
	🕰 6:34pm Listener Gregory: ↳ adamdoesit @6:24 I haven't seen it in years, but I remember it as being quite good.
	🕰 6:35pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Courrante - Blue" by "The Roland Hanna Trio" How did Roland Hanna find his way to this rhythm section. European recording?
	🕰 6:36pm Jeff Golick: Hi there!
	6:41pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:35 Yes, I think MPS must have assembled the rhythm section.
	6:42pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @6:41 And recorded them in their Villingen studio
	🕰 6:43pm Jeff Golick: You're playing my bandcamp wishlist, DJ Peter, and I am grateful. Also, on the subject of watching older films, I finally saw Night of the Hunter on Friday night, after somehow making it this far without it.
	6:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @6:36 Hey Jeff! I kept expecting you to play John Coltrane's "Solstice" in your first set but when I poked around I realized... Coltrane does not have a tune called "Solstice." But he could have!
	6:44pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @6:43 Lillian Gish is arguably the creepiest part of that movie.
	6:45pm DJ Peter: Was talking old movies with my mother-in-law last night and she got a far away look in her eye when discussing Robert Mitchum. (But not that role)
	6:46pm Malcontent: ↳ Song: "Variations - 2nd Version" by "Gordon Beck's Gyros... Hey, this track is pretty sweet! Never really gave Gordon Beck's music the time of day before. Guess I need to reconsider.
	🕰 6:47pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Variations - 2nd Version" by "Gordon Beck's Gyros... This is bizarrely reminding me of something the Keith Jarrett quartet would play.
	6:48pm DJ Peter: ↳ Malcontent @6:46 Welcome Malcontent! Yeah I've recently been digging into Phil Woods during his "European Rhythm Machine" period, one of the pianists is Gordon Beck so I'm a short ways down the rabbit hole. This album is reminiscent (in spots) of the studio record by Gary Burton and Keith Jarrett.
	6:48pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:47 Jinx!
	6:49pm Malcontent: ↳ DJ Peter @6:48 Already purchased on Bandcamp! Thanks for the introduction.
	🕰 6:50pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:48 Great minds think in the same rut.
	6:50pm adamdoesit: ↳ Jeff Golick @6:43 Fantastic. Haven't seen it in 25 years. Should review. Loved the Roland Hanna featurette, DJ Peter. By the way, the clockiest movie of all time (!) is playing at the Museum of Modern Art through mid-Febrary: Christian Marclay's The Clock. If you haven't sat with it for an hour (or even if you have), you owe yourself a visit. www.moma.org...
	🕰 6:51pm Jeff Golick: ↳ DJ Peter @6:44 I didn't enjoy the holier than thou attitude of the local marm, Spoony's wife.
	6:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:50 I'm hoping to get to NYC in January, and also hoping it will coincide with one of the 24-hour viewing sessions
	🕰 6:54pm Jeff Golick: David Liebman and Richard Beirach, excuse me.
	6:55pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @6:54 Ah yes! And they are a "slash" duo, not an "ampersand" I confess I don't recall Spoony or his wife.
	6:56pm adamdoesit: ↳ DJ Peter @6:51 Excellent. (But, like, what do people do? Bring diapers?)
	🕰 6:57pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:55 Looking into Mitchum's eyes drives everything else out of your head. Just ask your mother-in-law.
	6:58pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:56 I hope so. Surely MoMA doesn't tolerate the alternative. (I worked as a movie theater usher during my college years, and some of the things you'd find left behind... yes, a diaper...
	7:00pm DJ Peter: BTW here's David and Richard from the inner gatefold: i.discogs.com...
	7:01pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @7:00 I want Richard's sweater. Tis the season.
	🕰 7:01pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Jeff Golick @6:54 Peter is waiting to see which of us cracks first and points out his crediting of "Richie" Beirach on the board.
	7:03pm adamdoesit: Signing off to watch Dìdi (2024). Thank you, DJ Peter!
	7:04pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:01 The Tom Lord Discography does not list Richard Beirach, I am sorry (I cut and pasted). this is how he credits them: "David Liebman/Richard Beirach : David Liebman (alto-fl,ts,sop) Richie Beirach (p)"
	7:05pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @7:03 haven't seen that yet, please report back! Enjoy!
	🕰 7:05pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @7:04 God help us.
	🕰 7:14pm Listener Gregory: I have to leave for a while to stock up on food, but I should be back for the Dutch. See you all then.
	7:26pm Jeff g. via app: Mangelsdorfffffffff!
	7:28pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff g. via app @7:26 (the extra F's signify the multiphonics?)
	🕰 7:37pm WR: I never understand why LG can't chew and listen at the same time. Here, watch me do it.
	7:38pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @7:37 WR please leave your door unlocked while you do that! In case we have to send an EMT!
	🕰 7:41pm WR: ↳ DJ Peter @7:38 Adding reading comprehension to the chewing and listening is really pushing it.
	7:42pm doctorjazz: OK, heading home, will listen in the car. Saw a movie i really like with the family, A Real Pain.
	7:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:42 We've been trying to see a movie in a theater for about a month now without succeeding. Hats off to you
	🕰 7:46pm WR: ↳ doctorjazz @7:42 Thanks for the endorsement, will add it to my list.
	7:56pm Listener Gregory: At the vegan restaurant picking up my order. They have a nice Jazz Xmas playlist going… just like Jeff G! Be home soon.
	7:58pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hello DJ Peter! Hello friends! Listener Gregalah, I haven't been to that vegan place (that used to be the best all-night diner in town when I was 17). Do you recommend it?
	7:59pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Peter Welcome back!
	8:00pm tom tom the pipers son: hello peter and all....
	8:04pm DJ Peter: Hey Wendy, coelacanthø, and tom tom the pipers son! Good good to be back back with the rerun rerun
	8:05pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @7:59 coel: you may enjoy this: www.nytimes.com...
	8:09pm spodiodi: thanks, DJ Peter! have a nice holiday
	8:10pm Jeff g. via app: Bamboo what now?
	8:10pm DJ Peter: ↳ spodiodi @8:09 And to you, spodiodi!
	8:10pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff g. via app @8:10 Hinze plays bamboo flute I guess? I hope?
	8:11pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DJ Peter @8:05 Thanks Peter, but ny times is owned/run by despicable pigs, so i have no access to their online anything.
	8:12pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:11 I hear that. (I get a subscription through my employer, that's my excuse.) It's an article on Googie architecture in L.A.
	🕰 8:13pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @7:58 Yes. I remember it as the wonderful Mayan restaurant Three Stones, but the vegan place is very good.
	🕰 8:14pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Jeff g. via app @8:10 A reference to flutist Robert Dick maybe?
	8:15pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:14 Dedicated to the first artist on the show, Dick van der Capellen
	8:17pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DJ Peter @8:12 no justification needed for my behalf - i'm no angel! ... but Yes, the space-age sensibilities! i think you just opened a can of worms for me!
	8:18pm coelacanth∅: (external-content.duckduckgo.com...)
	8:19pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:13 Three Stones was awesome! But I'm talking about Ed's Diner, which was a very different experience. :-) Glad for the review! I've been avoiding it because the name is stupid, but I'll swing by some time and check it out.
	8:21pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:18 That's awesome. Looks like a shark!
	8:21pm Listener Gregory: This is quite a concept, DJP.
	8:22pm doctorjazz: Home, cool set idea!
	8:22pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:21 Well now i feel challenged. Maybe I can put together a set of The John Coltrane Quartet separately playing songs from The Sound of Music.
	8:24pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Guys and Dolls" by "The Eddie Costa Quartet" This is wonderful. I love the vibes so much. And this musical, too!
	8:25pm DJ Peter: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @8:24 Maybe we can put on one of those "the actors are also the band" productions of Guys and Dolls and have the vibes on stage the whole time. "Luck be a lady tonight..." (casts dice across the vibes)
	8:26pm doctorjazz: My favorite Jazz Group does Broadway album is Cannonball Adderly doing Fiddler on the Roof, play that often!
	🕰 8:28pm Jeff Golick: Giuffre on bari on this one?
	8:28pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "I've Never Been In Love Before" by "Marty Paich" like the album image for a semi realistic portrayal of theater downtime
	8:29pm doctorjazz: The Paul Motian Broadway series was really good as well. And the first one I ever got was a box set put together by Murray Hill Records, Great Jazz Artists play the music of The Great Composers, which had a ton of great stuff (from albums by the artists). www.discogs.com...
	8:29pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:28 but we all know that wasn't the selling point
	8:31pm doctorjazz: (Henderson/Tyner's Forces of Nature just arrived a day or so ago)
	8:31pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @8:28 Indeed. Lots of doublers in this band (trumpet/trombone, trombone/tenor sax)... I guess the Hollywood based musicians were versatile?
	8:32pm chresti: Hi clockfaces! nice jazzed up clock business you got there!
	8:33pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Sue Me" by "Paul Motian Trio + Two" This is the later Motian On Broadway, when he returned to the concept (the original had Bill Frisell, Joe Lovano (I saw that group, back in the day).
	8:33pm DJ Peter: ↳ chresti @8:32 Jazzin' up the holidays, chresti!
	🕰 8:35pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Sue Me" by "Paul Motian Trio + Two" Kikuchi was a hummer during his solos.
	🕰 8:36pm Listener Gregory: This set is showing me that I don't know this musical well at all.
	8:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Sue Me" by "Paul Motian Trio + Two" This is pretty abstracted from the tune in the Broadway show, LG, it might be more recognizable if you heard it sung.
	8:38pm doctorjazz: (Is that the proper pronunciation of Motian? I always thought it rhymed with Motion...)
	8:39pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:29 Since you mention it, doc: one of my prized collections is a full run of the original LPs that CD is collecting. I have the covers framed together... e.g. www.discogs.com... and www.discogs.com... and www.discogs.com...
	8:40pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:38 Motian is the Armenian pronunciation. He went with the mispronunciation because it seemed appropriate from a drummer to be "motion." But after Cindy McGurl's radio show "Uncle Paul's Jazz Closet" where she says it the traditional way, I'm now in the habit.
	8:41pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:39 Wow, I never saw the originals, just the 5 LP box set (reissue), I'm jeolous!
	8:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:41 Saw three of them in a used record store and vowed to myself that someday I would own the full set. When eBay came along it became a lot easier to find them.
	8:47pm Listener Gregory: I am old enough to remember when it was Motion, then Mo-ti-an, then back to Motion for a long time. And now Mot-ti-an again!
	8:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:43 The box set is 6 LPs set, all those albums (though I'm sure the originals are better sounding. But, old Hebrew Proverb; Who is the Rich Man? The one who is satisfied with what he has...)
	8:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "When I Fall In Love" by "Art Farmer" Really nice track!
	8:48pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 So by that proverb... all record collectors are poor!
	8:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:48 Yeah, it's a really tough fit trying to say it fits me, but maybe just with this box set...
	8:50pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "When I Fall In Love" by "Art Farmer" some phrases in this keep reminding me of "dat dere"
	8:51pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Titoros (alternate take)" by "Mary Lou Williams" This is lovely. The more I hear Mary Lou Williams, the more I want to hear Mary Lou Williams.
	8:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:50 Farmer is definitely bringing da funk into the Great American Songbook!
	8:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:47 I'm sure I heard it pronounced 'Motion' when I've seen him perform (a number of times). But, having a name that is constantly mangled, I can identify with going with what's easier.
	8:52pm DJ Peter: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @8:51 same!
	8:57pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Movie Twelve" by "Michael Mantler" Carla Bley as a sideman (sidewoman..sideperson), very cool!
	8:57pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Movie Twelve" by "Michael Mantler" i like this but feel mantler is tipping toward la mancha with dramatics
	8:57pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Movie Twelve" by "Michael Mantler" Catherine's guitar really cuts through there...
	8:58pm doctorjazz: Thanks, DJ Peter! Happy Holidays all!
	8:59pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks peter...have a nice holiday...
	8:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Peter!
	9:00pm Wendy del Formaggio: Thanks, DJP!
	🕰 9:00pm WR: Thank you! Peter! Lovely lovely.
	🕰 9:00pm Listener Gregory: Thanks a lot, Peter. Your voice seemed to have recovered by the end, btw. Happy Xmas/Hkah, everyone!
	9:00pm DJ Peter: Be safe, be happy, love your family or at least don't kill them! thanks everybody!
	10:02am doctorjazz: Caught the first half of the show (my usual Monday Morning Quarterback catch-up). Dug the Roland Hanna (know him in groups, haven't chased down the solo stuff). Thanks, Peter, a very Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!

The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from December 22, 2024

View DJ Peter's profile

Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

Listener comments!
	🕰 6:00pm Listener Gregory: Festive holiday clock.
	6:02pm spodiodi: Greetings, DJ Peter and all!
	6:02pm doctorjazz: Welcome back DJ Peter. Out with family, catch up tomorrow (As usual).
	🕰 6:03pm Listener Gregory: Do you have a new mic, Peter? Your voice sounds a bit echoey or something.
	6:06pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:03 Thanks for spending your pre-holiday Sunday with me, Gregory, spodiodi, doc (well, doc only sort of spending it here). Some stuff going on here that is making the sound challenging... I think you must be hearing that.
	🕰 6:06pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:06 I did not ask whether you were broadcasting under water, but I was tempted.
	6:06pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Par la terre et le nuageux" by "Orchestre Nationa... One of the previous recordings: www.discogs.com...
	6:08pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @6:06 Also this one: www.discogs.com...
	6:10pm DJ Peter: I gather "Anna Livia Plurabelle" is a character in Finnegan's Wake.
	🕰 6:11pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:10 Yes, if there ARE characters in that book (which I have not read).
	6:12pm DJ Peter: I've read about five pages. Took me several weeks.
	6:24pm adamdoesit: Hi DJ Peter and horologists. We watched Laura (1944) last night, featuring the famous theme so many times and ways, there must've been a special. And clocks! Clocks galore. Or two important ones anyway, made by MacGuffin and Co. (Paris).
	6:26pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:24 A classic but one that I'm not sure has held up? But yes, many clocks! PS It's weird to see Vincent Price in that context.
	6:29pm Doug Schulkind: Sir Peter!
	6:30pm adamdoesit: ↳ DJ Peter @6:26 I felt it held up. Not contemporary, but taut. I thought the Price was the Winchell character; instead he was the dumb lug! The omnipresence of the theme made me think of (of all things) Mr. Hulot's Holday.
	6:30pm DJ Peter: ↳ Doug Schulkind @6:29 My liege!
	6:32pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:30 the byplay between Clifton Webb and Dana Andrews is very funny
	🕰 6:34pm Listener Gregory: ↳ adamdoesit @6:24 I haven't seen it in years, but I remember it as being quite good.
	🕰 6:35pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Courrante - Blue" by "The Roland Hanna Trio" How did Roland Hanna find his way to this rhythm section. European recording?
	🕰 6:36pm Jeff Golick: Hi there!
	6:41pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:35 Yes, I think MPS must have assembled the rhythm section.
	6:42pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @6:41 And recorded them in their Villingen studio
	🕰 6:43pm Jeff Golick: You're playing my bandcamp wishlist, DJ Peter, and I am grateful. Also, on the subject of watching older films, I finally saw Night of the Hunter on Friday night, after somehow making it this far without it.
	6:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @6:36 Hey Jeff! I kept expecting you to play John Coltrane's "Solstice" in your first set but when I poked around I realized... Coltrane does not have a tune called "Solstice." But he could have!
	6:44pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @6:43 Lillian Gish is arguably the creepiest part of that movie.
	6:45pm DJ Peter: Was talking old movies with my mother-in-law last night and she got a far away look in her eye when discussing Robert Mitchum. (But not that role)
	6:46pm Malcontent: ↳ Song: "Variations - 2nd Version" by "Gordon Beck's Gyros... Hey, this track is pretty sweet! Never really gave Gordon Beck's music the time of day before. Guess I need to reconsider.
	🕰 6:47pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Variations - 2nd Version" by "Gordon Beck's Gyros... This is bizarrely reminding me of something the Keith Jarrett quartet would play.
	6:48pm DJ Peter: ↳ Malcontent @6:46 Welcome Malcontent! Yeah I've recently been digging into Phil Woods during his "European Rhythm Machine" period, one of the pianists is Gordon Beck so I'm a short ways down the rabbit hole. This album is reminiscent (in spots) of the studio record by Gary Burton and Keith Jarrett.
	6:48pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @6:47 Jinx!
	6:49pm Malcontent: ↳ DJ Peter @6:48 Already purchased on Bandcamp! Thanks for the introduction.
	🕰 6:50pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:48 Great minds think in the same rut.
	6:50pm adamdoesit: ↳ Jeff Golick @6:43 Fantastic. Haven't seen it in 25 years. Should review. Loved the Roland Hanna featurette, DJ Peter. By the way, the clockiest movie of all time (!) is playing at the Museum of Modern Art through mid-Febrary: Christian Marclay's The Clock. If you haven't sat with it for an hour (or even if you have), you owe yourself a visit. www.moma.org...
	🕰 6:51pm Jeff Golick: ↳ DJ Peter @6:44 I didn't enjoy the holier than thou attitude of the local marm, Spoony's wife.
	6:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:50 I'm hoping to get to NYC in January, and also hoping it will coincide with one of the 24-hour viewing sessions
	🕰 6:54pm Jeff Golick: David Liebman and Richard Beirach, excuse me.
	6:55pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @6:54 Ah yes! And they are a "slash" duo, not an "ampersand" I confess I don't recall Spoony or his wife.
	6:56pm adamdoesit: ↳ DJ Peter @6:51 Excellent. (But, like, what do people do? Bring diapers?)
	🕰 6:57pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @6:55 Looking into Mitchum's eyes drives everything else out of your head. Just ask your mother-in-law.
	6:58pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @6:56 I hope so. Surely MoMA doesn't tolerate the alternative. (I worked as a movie theater usher during my college years, and some of the things you'd find left behind... yes, a diaper...
	7:00pm DJ Peter: BTW here's David and Richard from the inner gatefold: i.discogs.com...
	7:01pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @7:00 I want Richard's sweater. Tis the season.
	🕰 7:01pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Jeff Golick @6:54 Peter is waiting to see which of us cracks first and points out his crediting of "Richie" Beirach on the board.
	7:03pm adamdoesit: Signing off to watch Dìdi (2024). Thank you, DJ Peter!
	7:04pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:01 The Tom Lord Discography does not list Richard Beirach, I am sorry (I cut and pasted). this is how he credits them: "David Liebman/Richard Beirach : David Liebman (alto-fl,ts,sop) Richie Beirach (p)"
	7:05pm DJ Peter: ↳ adamdoesit @7:03 haven't seen that yet, please report back! Enjoy!
	🕰 7:05pm Listener Gregory: ↳ DJ Peter @7:04 God help us.
	🕰 7:14pm Listener Gregory: I have to leave for a while to stock up on food, but I should be back for the Dutch. See you all then.
	7:26pm Jeff g. via app: Mangelsdorfffffffff!
	7:28pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff g. via app @7:26 (the extra F's signify the multiphonics?)
	🕰 7:37pm WR: I never understand why LG can't chew and listen at the same time. Here, watch me do it.
	7:38pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @7:37 WR please leave your door unlocked while you do that! In case we have to send an EMT!
	🕰 7:41pm WR: ↳ DJ Peter @7:38 Adding reading comprehension to the chewing and listening is really pushing it.
	7:42pm doctorjazz: OK, heading home, will listen in the car. Saw a movie i really like with the family, A Real Pain.
	7:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @7:42 We've been trying to see a movie in a theater for about a month now without succeeding. Hats off to you
	🕰 7:46pm WR: ↳ doctorjazz @7:42 Thanks for the endorsement, will add it to my list.
	7:56pm Listener Gregory: At the vegan restaurant picking up my order. They have a nice Jazz Xmas playlist going… just like Jeff G! Be home soon.
	7:58pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hello DJ Peter! Hello friends! Listener Gregalah, I haven't been to that vegan place (that used to be the best all-night diner in town when I was 17). Do you recommend it?
	7:59pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Peter Welcome back!
	8:00pm tom tom the pipers son: hello peter and all....
	8:04pm DJ Peter: Hey Wendy, coelacanthø, and tom tom the pipers son! Good good to be back back with the rerun rerun
	8:05pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @7:59 coel: you may enjoy this: www.nytimes.com...
	8:09pm spodiodi: thanks, DJ Peter! have a nice holiday
	8:10pm Jeff g. via app: Bamboo what now?
	8:10pm DJ Peter: ↳ spodiodi @8:09 And to you, spodiodi!
	8:10pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff g. via app @8:10 Hinze plays bamboo flute I guess? I hope?
	8:11pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DJ Peter @8:05 Thanks Peter, but ny times is owned/run by despicable pigs, so i have no access to their online anything.
	8:12pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:11 I hear that. (I get a subscription through my employer, that's my excuse.) It's an article on Googie architecture in L.A.
	🕰 8:13pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @7:58 Yes. I remember it as the wonderful Mayan restaurant Three Stones, but the vegan place is very good.
	🕰 8:14pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Jeff g. via app @8:10 A reference to flutist Robert Dick maybe?
	8:15pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:14 Dedicated to the first artist on the show, Dick van der Capellen
	8:17pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DJ Peter @8:12 no justification needed for my behalf - i'm no angel! ... but Yes, the space-age sensibilities! i think you just opened a can of worms for me!
	8:18pm coelacanth∅: (external-content.duckduckgo.com...)
	8:19pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:13 Three Stones was awesome! But I'm talking about Ed's Diner, which was a very different experience. :-) Glad for the review! I've been avoiding it because the name is stupid, but I'll swing by some time and check it out.
	8:21pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:18 That's awesome. Looks like a shark!
	8:21pm Listener Gregory: This is quite a concept, DJP.
	8:22pm doctorjazz: Home, cool set idea!
	8:22pm DJ Peter: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:21 Well now i feel challenged. Maybe I can put together a set of The John Coltrane Quartet separately playing songs from The Sound of Music.
	8:24pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Guys and Dolls" by "The Eddie Costa Quartet" This is wonderful. I love the vibes so much. And this musical, too!
	8:25pm DJ Peter: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @8:24 Maybe we can put on one of those "the actors are also the band" productions of Guys and Dolls and have the vibes on stage the whole time. "Luck be a lady tonight..." (casts dice across the vibes)
	8:26pm doctorjazz: My favorite Jazz Group does Broadway album is Cannonball Adderly doing Fiddler on the Roof, play that often!
	🕰 8:28pm Jeff Golick: Giuffre on bari on this one?
	8:28pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "I've Never Been In Love Before" by "Marty Paich" like the album image for a semi realistic portrayal of theater downtime
	8:29pm doctorjazz: The Paul Motian Broadway series was really good as well. And the first one I ever got was a box set put together by Murray Hill Records, Great Jazz Artists play the music of The Great Composers, which had a ton of great stuff (from albums by the artists). www.discogs.com...
	8:29pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:28 but we all know that wasn't the selling point
	8:31pm doctorjazz: (Henderson/Tyner's Forces of Nature just arrived a day or so ago)
	8:31pm DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @8:28 Indeed. Lots of doublers in this band (trumpet/trombone, trombone/tenor sax)... I guess the Hollywood based musicians were versatile?
	8:32pm chresti: Hi clockfaces! nice jazzed up clock business you got there!
	8:33pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Sue Me" by "Paul Motian Trio + Two" This is the later Motian On Broadway, when he returned to the concept (the original had Bill Frisell, Joe Lovano (I saw that group, back in the day).
	8:33pm DJ Peter: ↳ chresti @8:32 Jazzin' up the holidays, chresti!
	🕰 8:35pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Sue Me" by "Paul Motian Trio + Two" Kikuchi was a hummer during his solos.
	🕰 8:36pm Listener Gregory: This set is showing me that I don't know this musical well at all.
	8:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Sue Me" by "Paul Motian Trio + Two" This is pretty abstracted from the tune in the Broadway show, LG, it might be more recognizable if you heard it sung.
	8:38pm doctorjazz: (Is that the proper pronunciation of Motian? I always thought it rhymed with Motion...)
	8:39pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:29 Since you mention it, doc: one of my prized collections is a full run of the original LPs that CD is collecting. I have the covers framed together... e.g. www.discogs.com... and www.discogs.com... and www.discogs.com...
	8:40pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:38 Motian is the Armenian pronunciation. He went with the mispronunciation because it seemed appropriate from a drummer to be "motion." But after Cindy McGurl's radio show "Uncle Paul's Jazz Closet" where she says it the traditional way, I'm now in the habit.
	8:41pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:39 Wow, I never saw the originals, just the 5 LP box set (reissue), I'm jeolous!
	8:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:41 Saw three of them in a used record store and vowed to myself that someday I would own the full set. When eBay came along it became a lot easier to find them.
	8:47pm Listener Gregory: I am old enough to remember when it was Motion, then Mo-ti-an, then back to Motion for a long time. And now Mot-ti-an again!
	8:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:43 The box set is 6 LPs set, all those albums (though I'm sure the originals are better sounding. But, old Hebrew Proverb; Who is the Rich Man? The one who is satisfied with what he has...)
	8:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "When I Fall In Love" by "Art Farmer" Really nice track!
	8:48pm DJ Peter: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 So by that proverb... all record collectors are poor!
	8:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ DJ Peter @8:48 Yeah, it's a really tough fit trying to say it fits me, but maybe just with this box set...
	8:50pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "When I Fall In Love" by "Art Farmer" some phrases in this keep reminding me of "dat dere"
	8:51pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Titoros (alternate take)" by "Mary Lou Williams" This is lovely. The more I hear Mary Lou Williams, the more I want to hear Mary Lou Williams.
	8:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ coelacanth∅ @8:50 Farmer is definitely bringing da funk into the Great American Songbook!
	8:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:47 I'm sure I heard it pronounced 'Motion' when I've seen him perform (a number of times). But, having a name that is constantly mangled, I can identify with going with what's easier.
	8:52pm DJ Peter: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @8:51 same!
	8:57pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Movie Twelve" by "Michael Mantler" Carla Bley as a sideman (sidewoman..sideperson), very cool!
	8:57pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Movie Twelve" by "Michael Mantler" i like this but feel mantler is tipping toward la mancha with dramatics
	8:57pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Movie Twelve" by "Michael Mantler" Catherine's guitar really cuts through there...
	8:58pm doctorjazz: Thanks, DJ Peter! Happy Holidays all!
	8:59pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks peter...have a nice holiday...
	8:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Peter!
	9:00pm Wendy del Formaggio: Thanks, DJP!
	🕰 9:00pm WR: Thank you! Peter! Lovely lovely.
	🕰 9:00pm Listener Gregory: Thanks a lot, Peter. Your voice seemed to have recovered by the end, btw. Happy Xmas/Hkah, everyone!
	9:00pm DJ Peter: Be safe, be happy, love your family or at least don't kill them! thanks everybody!
	10:02am doctorjazz: Caught the first half of the show (my usual Monday Morning Quarterback catch-up). Dug the Roland Hanna (know him in groups, haven't chased down the solo stuff). Thanks, Peter, a very Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!
