	🥁 9:19am Zip7: Good morning Doug and Drumizens! Back from visiting daughter Zippelita, who is now a Supermom – in charge of a four-year-old boy, two-year-old girl, 100 lb. Akita, two cats and an albino boa constrictor that eyed me hungrily from its cage. A highlight was when the dog was watching dinner prep and the two-year-old skittered over and stuck her finger in its ass. Yeeeow!!!
	🥁 9:20am sinner: I am officially backed with an Alabama girl.
	9:20am Doug Schulkind: I love how Mr. Hutchinton sings "burglar" with syllables.
	9:21am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zip7 @9:19 You have to admit, Zip7, you do look awful tasty!

	9:28am Little Danny: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:27 haha
	9:28am DJ Peter: 👍🏼
	9:28am Doug Schulkind: Now THAT was fuckn weird. The MP3 was playing at the wrong speed. How is that even possible?
	9:29am Stanley: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:28 Chipmunks got to it
	🥁 9:29am Zip7: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:28 I thought we were entering a wormhole
	9:29am Little Danny: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:28 play it again!!!
	9:30am Doug Schulkind: I think the possums have been nibbling on this digital file.
	9:31am Andrew in Toronto: Good morning, Doug, and all other listeners!
	9:31am KWilde: Someday Matinee!
	9:32am bigplanetnoise: Thank you so much!
	9:32am Webhamster Henry: Check the governor on your victrola, Doug!
	9:32am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:31 Good morning, Andrew in Toronto.

	9:37am Marie in Chicago: Good morning, Doug and All! Wonderful gif. Music, universal language?
	9:37am Andrew in Toronto: Morning, Gina!
	9:38am Gina Bacon: I dig that background music!
	9:38am tim: ↳ Song: "Mere Angne Men" by "Alka Yagnik" Hey Doug and everyone! Just so I can look cool and act like I know what I'm talking about on the next It's Complicated. what's the time signature of this song?
	9:38am Marie in Chicago: Good morning, Andrew in Toronto
	9:38am Doug Schulkind: Glad you're here, Andrew in Toronto! Listener Robert! Marie in Chicago! Gina Bacon! (I'll give you your Pluto Walkers back now, Gina. Thanks for the loaner.)

	9:42am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Little Danny @9:41 This set's gonna love you right back, Little Danny!
	9:42am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Janina Ki Kore Bolbo" by "Arati Mukherjee" What a treat
	9:42am TDK60: Hello Doug.
	9:43am Chris Hiatt: ↳ tim @9:38 I loved the cut, but wasn't counting. I would consider this prog adjacent for sure though.
	9:44am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:40 It's Complicated with Dave Mandl on Monday night, the land of odd time signatures!
	9:44am Doug Schulkind: Greetings and groovings, TDK60!
	9:45am tim: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:40 No sweat! Just riffin on the crazy time signatures on Dave Mandl's prog show It's Complicated. And I was quite intrigued with the percussive time signature of Mere Angne Men :)
	9:46am Listener Gregory: Doug, you’re missing the chance to end the show an hour early by not playing those fast versions. Or play twice as much music!
	🥁 9:46am PAULS: Present! We just need to LISTEN faster is all.
	9:47am Little Danny: lol
	9:47am Little Danny: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:46 completely agree!!!
	9:47am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:46 Those obvious upsides have escaped my consciousness at this moment, Listener Gregory. Obviously, I have clicked some rando button that is speeding things up in Deck #1. Funny but annoying.
	9:48am Little Danny: this show is all about maximizing productivity, a real back burner to front burner sitch
	🥁 9:48am PAULS: HA -- problem what problem?!?
	9:50am TDK60: Down with slow music. We need speedy stuff. Get more music in.
	9:50am Doug Schulkind: Hello PAULS!
	🥁 9:50am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:50 morning, Doug! I slept in cuz I was up late watching tennis from down unda
	9:50am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ PAULS @9:46 Hiya, PAULS!
	🥁 9:51am PAULS: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:50 hello AiT!
	9:51am tim: ↳ Song: "Dilbar Dilbra" by "Nahid Akhtar" That the keys and guitar on this are wicked!!!
	9:52am tim: ↳ tim @9:51 Or is it a shahi baaja?
	9:53am Doug Schulkind: The shahi baaja ("royal instrument") is an electrified and slightly modified version of the Indian bulbul tarang, a type of Indian zither to which have been added typewriter keys which depress two of the strings to change their pitch.
	🥁 9:54am PAULS: Big finish!
	9:55am chresti: Morning Doug and drummers!
	9:56am tim: I saw string slinger Derek Moneypenny play a shahi baaja last year. That fried my brain and fried it some more. I couldn't get enough of it! derekmonypeny.bandcamp.com...
	9:56am tim: Man. this set rules, Doug!
	🥁 9:57am Zip7: Diggin' this set. Vindaloo for breakfast!
	9:58am TDK60: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:53 Doug, I was trying a bulbul tarang at a music store here, and some smart aleck came in the shop and promptly bought it, took it out of my hands. Oh well.
	9:59am Webhamster Henry: Bulbul tarangs are cheap!
	9:59am Marie in Chicago: ↳ tim @9:56 I totally agree with Tim. Hey Tim!
	10:00am TDK60: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:59 Hi W.H. I should try again?
	10:01am Little Danny: sick
	10:04am Chris Hiatt: Oh jeez, Doug. Hope it goes smoothly!
	10:04am listener james from westwood: Goodness, Doug, kindest tidings on the surgery!
	10:04am adamdoesit: Here's looking at YEOW!, Doug.
	🥁 10:04am Zip7: Oh my, Doug! Good luck with surgery.
	10:05am Little Danny: epic side
	10:05am Marie in Chicago: I had cataracts removed and I survived. They make it painless but it is anxiety provoking for sure. I hope you have a nice meal and restful evening to look forward to afterwards
	10:05am Webhamster Henry: ↳ TDK60 @10:00 I dunno - a quick look shows they are more expensive than I remember. You can get a taishogoto though, same thing basically: www.etsy.com...
	10:06am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning. A-pickin' and a-grinnin' there.
	10:06am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Hi Doug and all
	10:06am Doug Schulkind: Apparently I have a rare form of glaucoma. My eye doesn't relieve pressure that way it should naturally, so they have to burn a hole in there. Like installing a sump pump, I was told.
	10:07am Doug Schulkind: Great to see you again and always, Oleh! Ken From Hyde Park!
	10:07am Ramblin' Ray: Some serious music during the procedure might help. Best of luck with it.
	10:09am Doug Schulkind: Completely accidentally, I am playing a track about being blind. That's just great.
	🥁 10:10am Zip7: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:06 Oh jeez. I have glaucoma too. Take so many eyedrops my eyeballs feel like marinated cocktail onions.
	10:10am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Smooth sailing with the glaucoma treatment Doug. Sorry to hear about this and going under the knife, or laser I guess. Best wishes.
	10:11am still b/p: Sending best thoughts for ease and effectiveness. Cataract action was all cut, clear and insert. Laser comes in from the bullpen later if I/eye get the cloudiness that develops for a pretty sizeable percentage of patients. But they say that's still quick 'n slick. Yours is a more particular and serious sounding situation with the tool and type of condition.
	10:11am Listener Gregory: A second Randy Newman song? A new record (or are all of them??)!
	10:11am Little Danny: killin it doug
	10:11am TDK60: Doug, good luck with the eye procedure.
	10:11am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:11 All Randy, all the time, Listener Gregory.
	10:12am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:09 hee hee hee. I have glaucoma and use drops. I also had stents put in, which I do not recommend. Some forms of glaucoma are linked to certain b vitamin deficiencies. I have had a certain b vitamin deficiency since I was a kid. Now I take more b vitamins and lutein and bilberry for eye health
	🥁 10:12am dutchtheo: Great Irma, i picked that song for Uncles request show a few years ago. Good luck with the eyes operation!
	10:13am Doug Schulkind: Thanks, all, for the good thoughts. I have had this surgery looming for the last four months, and today is finally the day. I wish I could just do this with drops, but apparently no.
	🥁 10:13am DJ Peter: Doug, it's like the name of your middle school band (Optic Sump Pump) was a premonition! In all seriousness, you'll be fine: routine procedure and you'll be very happy with the result!
	10:13am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ dutchtheo @10:12 Hi, dutchtheo.
	10:13am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:13 Good luck and best wishes, Doug.
	🥁 10:14am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:13 Do you at least get to wear an eye patch for a few days?
	10:14am Doug Schulkind: Wish I had some old cassettes of Optic Sump Pump to serenade me.
	10:14am adamdoesit: Maybe Deck #1 can help you make those 5 uncomfortable minutes feel like 2 1/2.
	10:14am Doug Schulkind: ↳ PAULS @10:14 Arrrrrrrrrrhhhhhh, matey!
	10:15am zzz: ↳ Song: "I Wonder Why" by "Ella Fitzgerald" groovy Ella! morning DJ DS and all. best vibes on surgery DS
	10:15am Doug Schulkind: ↳ adamdoesit @10:14 I'm so pissed at Deck #1 right now. Still can't figure out the problem. Looks like I'm gonna have to fire my unpaid intern. Again.
	🥁 10:15am dutchtheo: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @10:13 Hi, Andrew!
	10:16am Doug Schulkind: Nice to see you awake, zzz!
	10:16am chresti: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:06 I heard that cannabis helps glaucoma
	10:17am Listener Gregory: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:15 That's the problem when you can't dock their pay—there's few options left.
	10:17am still b/p: Mess with the operating team in there and request a playlist with Bowie/Queen "Under Pressure" and Joel's "Pressure."
	10:17am Doug Schulkind: ↳ chresti @10:16 It's a weird kind of glaucoma, chresti. I think I need the hard stuff.
	10:18am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Sweet version of a lovely old RN song
	10:19am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Oleh from Pittsburgh @10:18 Indeed, Oleh. All these RN tunes sound great in the hands of these masterful divas!
	10:21am Stanley: All the classics today Doug.
	🥁 10:21am DJ Peter: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:15 Suggest you bring deck #1 along to your appointment. Sometimes a laser bee sting is all it takes.
	10:21am Doug Schulkind: ↳ DJ Peter @10:21 Now THAT is a capital idea, DJP.
	10:22am Oleh from Pittsburgh: So refreshing. This is how to approach a cover version.
	10:22am WR: Hi folks, weird priorities here, work is caught up but I am behind on WFMU.
	10:23am Doug Schulkind: I think I've solved the problem. Simply by closing the application and reopening. Wish me luck.
	🥁 10:23am βrian: It's a rain day, so Little Human is home from school. Loving the Etta.
	🥁 10:23am DJ Peter: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:23 Good luck!
	10:23am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind)" by "Etta ... great lyrics
	🥁 10:25am Zip7: Etta did some great RN covers. "Let's Burn Down the Cornfield" is another
	10:25am Marie in Chicago: I believe blindness was mentioned again there... @)
	10:25am Doug Schulkind: ↳ βrian @10:23 Wait, whut?!? A rain day? This is madness, βrian! You can't shovel rain!!!
	10:26am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zip7 @10:25 You are so right, Zip7. I had to decide amongst four of Etta's Randy Newman covers.
	10:27am Dean: Nina Simone was not happy with this CTI album. It appeared when I was working in a record store. We played it frequently, and I, for one, really enjoy it.
	10:27am Doug Schulkind: Oh, and by the way, NINA is COMING TO YOU FROM DECK #1 MOTHAHFUCKAHS!
	10:27am Marie in Chicago: love these lush strings
	10:28am Alex In Illinois: Hi y'all! Finally, no more meetings for the rest of the day.
	10:28am zzz: ↳ Dean @10:27 yeah Nina on CTI caught my eye, first i’m hearing this. kinda dig it
	10:28am Listener Gregory: I heard Randy Newman perform Baltimore IN the city of Baltimore shortly after that album was released. The song was supposedly controversial in the city (according to the press), but it received a huge roar of approval when he began it.
	10:29am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Marie in Chicago @10:27 Yes, Marie in Chicago! The strings make these tunes so dramatic! (And melodramatic.)
	10:29am Doug Schulkind: I'm glad you could attend this meeting, Alex in Illinois.
	🥁 10:30am βrian: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:25 Well, technically it's a teacher conference day, but it is raining.
	10:30am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:15 Your unpaid intern must be goofing off at the bar with my unpaid roadie.
	10:31am pot8o: did it!
	10:31am Marie in Chicago: I loved that version of Baltimore. Great set!
	🥁 10:31am DJ Peter: I mean I clickied the whole show but I'll clicky Erma too
	10:31am zzz: ↳ Song: "Baltimore" by "Nina Simone" apparently there was a bassist on this record, Homer Mensch— which is a truly excellent name
	10:32am Marie in Chicago: Yes!
	10:34am Webhamster Henry: Welcome back Mike Lupica!
	🥁 10:35am listener james from westwood: ONCE AGAIN BACK IS THE INCREDIBLE
	10:36am adamdoesit: 34!!
	🥁 10:36am DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @10:27 I hadn't realized this was a CTI album: Sony put out the CD editions of many of the 1970s CTI's, my CD of this is in the red border "columbia jazz masters" series.
	10:37am Doug Schulkind: ↳ zzz @10:31 Homer Mensch is my spirit animal.
	10:37am Little Danny: doug what was your motown-ish talkover music?
	10:38am pot8o: ↳ DJ Peter @10:36 cti is an excellent label, whenever i find something off there i have to grab it
	10:39am Dean: My copy is also the Columbia issue CD, but in '78 the 12x12 CTI LP arrived at the store. Those were the days when you could glance across a record store and pick out the CTI and Tappan Zee covers without fail.
	10:39am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Little Danny @10:37 Little Danny, that was a very gentle way of alerting me that I forgot to add the talkover track to my playlist. I just did, and thanks!
	10:40am Dean: An interesting set theme: tracks off albums the artists themselves did not like. Nina's Baltimore and Allan Holdsworth's Velvet Darkness, also CTI, come to mind as candidates.
	10:41am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @10:38 pot8o, CTI albums are appreciated almost as much for the covert art as for the music.
	10:41am Doug Schulkind: ↳ DJ Peter @10:31 Erma and I thank you, deeply, DJP.
	10:43am Jeff Golick: ↳ DJ Peter @10:36 Signing in to say hi and mostly to reiterate my total hatred for the Columbia Jazz Masters CD design, which in my view set the whole jazz reissue/rediscovery process back a couple decades.
	10:43am rw: Good
	10:43am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:28 Listener Gregory, I bet Randy Newman's "Baltimore" received mixed reviews in Baltimore the same way David Simon's television program The Wire did.
	10:43am rw: morning!
	10:43am spodiodi: Greetings and good * Doug and all!
	10:43am Doug Schulkind: Are Dubya!!
	10:44am Doug Schulkind: ↳ spodiodi @10:43 'ello 'ello, spodiodi!
	10:44am Doug Schulkind: I love that you're here, Jeff "Total Hatred" Golick!
	🥁 10:45am DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:43 Agreed, terrible. "People love the "nice price" sticker, so let's just make a sticker shape part of our design!
	10:45am Listener Gregory: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:43 I think it was mostly political posturing. The citizens of the town (those who heard the song) mostly thought, "Yeah, it IS hard." Clearly, Baltimore was intended as a specific exemplar of hard times throughout the country, which those who were not professional politicians realized.
	10:46am Doug Schulkind: And hello, up there, WR! Almost missed ya!
	10:47am Dean: Randy Newman had a habit of aggravating people, didn't he? The South? Short people?
	🥁 10:47am DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @10:39 Yeah, I don't love all CTI records but I love the CTI look. CTi and Impulse! had that in common: gatefold, glossy, full bleed (typically)
	10:47am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:45 Listener Gregory, I think Baltimore is sick and tired of being the exemplar of urban ills. Actually, I know this to be true.
	10:48am Doug Schulkind: ↳ DJ Peter @10:47 I know Yusef Lateef was delighted with his two releases on CTI.
	10:49am Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "To My Friend Kenny McKenny" by "Anthony Braxton" Although this album is officially a classic, I have somehow managed not to ever hear it. It's not bad!
	10:49am pot8o: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:41 cti album art is in a league of its own, that and prog came out on top for great album art
	10:50am Jeff Golick: ↳ DJ Peter @10:45 Whoever designed and ok'd this travesty will have to answer for it in hell: www.discogs.com...
	10:50am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:49 I see you tapping your foot, Listener Gregory.
	10:51am zzz: ↳ DJ Peter @10:47 was explaining to my daughter that these Taylor Swift “Midnight” covers have a strong CTI vibe (not sure how much she cared, and whether it was an intentional reference being made by TS designers) www.discogs.com...
	10:51am Jeff Golick: Also note for the record that I am not mad.
	10:51am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:50 It burns, Jeff Golick. It BURNS.
	10:51am zzz: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:50 brutal
	10:52am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:51 But you are mad for the record, amirite, Jeff Golick?!?
	10:53am Jeff Golick: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:52 Yooooooooooo you know it.
	10:53am Listener Gregory: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:50 In a mystery novel, this person would be found dead tomorrow morning, and Jeff would be getting a visit from the Law & Order detectives. (Yes, I just mixed my media.)
	10:53am Dean: It's too bad that the CJM reissue of Kind of Blue is the only issue including a hidden track not released on any other Miles record.
	🥁 10:53am DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:50 For an album that has never been out of print, that was indeed a bizarre cover design. (Also, if you've forgotten, they ECM'd that issue by adding more reverb.)
	10:54am Jeff Golick: ↳ Song: "Solo I" by "Julius Hemphill" How do I not know of this record!? Thanks for playing.
	🥁 10:54am DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @10:53 Not rising to the bait, Dean. Save it for April Fools.
	10:55am Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Solo I" by "Julius Hemphill" Julius Hemphill's birthday two days ago.
	10:55am Jeff Golick: ↳ zzz @10:51 I buy that there's a reference being made here!
	10:55am still b/p: I don't want no trouble, see, but looked this up again cuz confusing at the time. One of our comment friends a few months ago: "Not sure he'd ever been to Baltimore before he wrote it. No, Randy, Baltimore is not particularly close to the sea or the ocean." Ummmm....I don't get that. City with an important harborfront, serving oceangoing traffic, on a major saltwater estuary. Major Navy facility just down the road. I don't think sea-related references are a stretch, eh?
	10:56am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:54 I feel kinda bad about not playing a duet track (with Peter Kowald) from this Live at Kassopiea disc.
	10:56am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:55 Listener Gregory, yes! I did see mention of that, and then plum forgot. No doubt it was in the back of my mind.
	10:58am Doug Schulkind: ↳ still b/p @10:55 You tell 'em, still b/p!
	10:59am Dean: January 26th Fools!
	11:01am Doug Schulkind: Today would have been my mother's 93rd birthday. Gone eight years now.
	11:03am Listener Gregory: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:01 She would have loved this set!
	11:04am Dean: Eight years! Happy birthday, Doug's mom. My mom just made it to 93 in 2020, departed one month later.
	🥁 11:04am Kevin Nutt: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:01 Big virtual hug.
	11:06am chresti: ↳ Dean @11:04 My dad was one month away from 93 when he passed last January.
	11:07am Dean: We never forget these milestones, birthdays, days of loss...
	11:08am Marie in Chicago: music critics---so many weenies among them
	🥁 11:08am StringOFperils: That 'f*** you' was artistic and classical.
	11:08am Dean: A friend of mine has a mother aiming to reach 103 later this year.
	11:09am Marie in Chicago: Happy Birthday, Doug's mom.
	11:09am Listener Gregory: The Blindfold Test has turned into a love-fest, where the person starts out giving 5 stars and then ends up giving a million stars to their hero. It is not very informative.
	11:10am Chris Hiatt: There's only one good Blindfold Test, and that's one with Monk. He was categorically uninterested in assessing anyone else's music, when DB started playing his work then he turned on.
	11:10am Listener Gregory: Have to run, Doug. If only Deck 1 had kept playing fast, I would have heard the whole show by now.
	11:12am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @11:10 Run like the wind, Listener Gregory!
	11:13am Doug Schulkind: ↳ StringOFperils @11:08 Why thank you, StringOFperils. I take certain pride in my fuuuuuckyouuuuus.
	11:13am Alex In Illinois: ↳ still b/p @10:55 Agreed. I've been to the Baltimore Maritime museum, which includes a few ships on the water. The Battle of Baltimore (subject of US national anthem) took place among ships. A few artists that participated in the Chicago Maritime festivals, (when we had them) were based out of Baltimore.
	11:14am Doug Schulkind: Shit, maybe it's an omen that I'm ranting about blindfold tests right before going in for eye surgery. Shit.
	11:14am still b/p: In my dream last night my mother (95) kept talking and interfered with me trying to hear some important public notification on a phone-ish device. In waking life, mom is NOT talk talk talky or interfere-y with ANYthing.
	🥁 11:15am Zip7: From an Elvin Jones Blindfold Test: "Keith Moons drumming during 'Underture' of Tommy produced appreciative comments: 'see there, where the tempo started to die, how he picked it up! The man is a drummer. Everything they play, he contains it.' Only Ginger Baker, of the now defunct Blind Faith, got the strong put down. Raising his head after an ominously silent hearing of 'do what you like,' with its enormously long drum solo, Jones growled 'NOTHING'S HAPPENIN'. CATS GOT DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR WITH NO GROUNDS. THEY SHOULD MAKE HIM AN ASTRONAUT AND LOSE HIS ASS'!"
	11:15am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Marie in Chicago @11:09 Thanks, Marie in Chicago!
	11:15am chresti: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:14 Start practicing!
	11:16am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @11:08 Dean, my father used to say, "I'm shooting for 100," and then I would say, "I hope you've got good aim," and then we'd both chuckle.
	11:17am adamdoesit: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:14 Omen, schmomen. How would you not have blindness on your mind? There was a good interview on the state of jazz criticism with the superbly productive Ethan Iverson on Nate Chinen's substack yesterday: open.substack.com...
	11:17am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zip7 @11:15 An asstronaut, Zip7?!
	11:18am Dean: If I reach 100--one helluva "if," I know--I want to go around proclaiming, "That's so last century!"
	11:18am Doug Schulkind: ↳ adamdoesit @11:17 Ethan Iverson is everywhere these days, it seems. I like his blog Do the Math, quite a bit: ethaniverson.com
	11:20am chresti: ↳ Zip7 @11:15 Lol
	🥁 11:22am Brian in UK: Hello Doug. Talk of blindfold tests & eye surgery where are we going? Best wishes for the op. It should get you out of cooking the dinner tonight.
	11:22am spodiodi: My maternal grandfather would have been 100 yesterdayish
	🥁 11:22am DJ Peter: Apropos of the solo alto sax set: I came across this LP while crate digging the other day. Still confused. www.discogs.com...
	11:23am adamdoesit: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:18 He writes as easily as he plays piano, and he plays a lot of piano. The self-confidence blows me away, without feeling overblown.
	11:23am Marie in Chicago: ↳ chresti @11:06 I'm sorry for your loss, Christi, that is very recent.
	11:24am Doug Schulkind: ↳ DJ Peter @11:22 DJ Peter, I like the comment left on that Discogs post: "Great album to lull your captives to sleep in the crawlspace."
	🥁 11:24am DJ Peter: He's got it pegged
	11:25am Doug Schulkind: ↳ chresti @11:06 chresti, my dad was three months short of 98. Blessings upon our dads.
	🥁 11:25am StringOFperils: ↳ DJ Peter @11:22 They do Barney Google. And they're clowns. How avant is that...
	11:26am Doug Schulkind: ↳ adamdoesit @11:23 adamdoesit, I have yet to find the space to dig into Iverson old band The Bad Plus. Are you a fan?
	11:27am Dean: Speaking of clowns, this recent NYT profile of Cindy Sherman's latest work is intriguing: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/24/arts/design/cindy-sherman-photography-hauser-wirth.html?unlocked_article_code=1.Qk0.yliy.R-ZVuWSjTuaX&smid=url-share
	🥁 11:28am DJ Peter: ↳ StringOFperils @11:25 Thanks, SOp. That "helps"
	🥁 11:29am PAULS: Back from the nature walk to greet a soul set!
	11:29am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Nnem Agwagom" by "Obiajulu Sound Power of Africa ... so bummed that I have to go into meeting and miss this tune! Loving it already
	11:30am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Marie in Chicago @11:29 See you next time, Marie in Chicago! Have a meaty meeting!
	11:31am Doug Schulkind: ↳ PAULS @11:29 And what a soul set it's gonna be, PAULS. Methinks you will approve.
	11:31am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:26 I loved Bad Plus when Iverson was still in the group. I hear they're still good, though haven't listened much to the post Iverson stuff.
	11:33am adamdoesit: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:26 I dipped a toe, and pulled it back out, after giving it an unfair shake. I know folks love The Bad Plus, but I didn't feel drawn in by it.
	11:34am adamdoesit: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:31 Chris, do you have a favorite album of theirs?
	11:36am zzz: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:31 after Iverson and Orren Evans, went in a whole new direction, swapping out piano for sax & guitar thebadplus.bandcamp.com...
	🥁 11:37am Artie: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:28 Decoder thought the sample rate was something it wasn't. I've heard this happen on my digital players.
	🥁 11:37am bobdc: I suppose it's too late to request Dizzy Gillespie's "Sumphin'" to prepare for your procedure, but good luck anyway!
	11:37am Doug Schulkind: I think what put me off checking out The Bad Plus is that I keep seeing the name as The Bad Pus, and that just isn't very enticing.
	11:38am chresti: ↳ Dean @11:27 Yeah, she's been posting clown like grotesques of her face on instagram for the past couple years.
	11:38am Chris Hiatt: ↳ adamdoesit @11:34 I like These are the Vistas a lot. Cool originals and a couple of fantastic covers, IMHO.
	11:39am Dean: Whenever I'm asked for a portrait, I refer to this golden oldie: https://www.christies.com/lot/lot-cindy-sherman-untitled-5408946/?
	11:40am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Artie @11:37 Quite possible, Artie. Though the failure occurred on tracks that it had played previously without incident. I think it was just a weird spasm. I closed the app and reopened, and the problem was dismissed.
	🥁 11:40am doctorjazz: Late to the party (Zoom meetings, puppy care, busy busy). I had laser eye surgery a few months ago,. Best of luck with the procedure Doug!
	11:40am chresti: ↳ chresti @11:38 They're great!
	11:40am adamdoesit: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:37 It's a fine line between infectious and infected. Chris, thanks. I'll give it a spin this weekend.
	11:40am Chris Hiatt: ↳ zzz @11:36 Yeah, I gotta make time to check out this incarnation. Chris Speed is a really great woodwinder.
	11:41am Dean: doctorjazz can advise about recommended recordings of the original Bad Plus...
	11:41am rw: I picked up a used Bad Plus CD for $1. For some reason it won’t play in my car, but sounds alright in the house.
	11:41am Doug Schulkind: ↳ doctorjazz @11:40 I'm having an iridotomy, doctorjazz. If it works, supposedly it will fix the problem forever and ever.
	🥁 11:41am doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @11:33 Loved the original, Iverson Bad Plus. Didn't care for the Evans group, like the new incarnation (but haven't gotten to love yet) Saw the Iverson version live menay times, not the other versions.
	11:41am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Good luck Doug. I’m sure it will be fine. Probably very brief and 8K in insurance cost. Ain’t that amazing? Still, the most handsomely paid speciality is orthopedics.
	11:42am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @11:41 Sebaciously Oozing was the name of my first band in high school.
	11:42am rw: Doug, Bad Pus is a perfectly good band name.
	11:42am Doug Schulkind: ↳ rw @11:42 Meow, rw!
	🥁 11:43am doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @11:34 I'll look around my Bad Plus CDs, send you recommendations!
	11:43am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Oleh from Pittsburgh @11:41 Thanks, Oleh.
	🥁 11:43am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:42 I went to high school with Doug and I wanted in the Oozing SO BAD. PLUS.
	11:43am adamdoesit: ↳ Dean @11:41 Dean, I've been listening to Jimmy LaFave in odd moments this week. Great stuff, like walking into some no-name joint to find the best bar there ever was. Thanks for the tip.
	🥁 11:44am doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @11:41 Sending Best Wishes and vibes for the procedure!
	11:44am adamdoesit: ↳ doctorjazz @11:43 Thanks, doc!
	11:44am Dean: Great to hear, adamdoesit! You nailed it.
	11:45am Doug Schulkind: ↳ doctorjazz @11:44 Thanks, doc. I, as they say in Pittsburgh, a-PRISH-ee-ate-it.
	11:46am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:45 What an inspired show! Thanks, Doug!
	11:47am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:42 lol
	11:47am rw: adamdoesit, I know what I say doesn’t make a difference but I woke up in a cold sweat the other night thinking, “Was I encouraging adamdoesit to paint his Gary Fisher flat black? It should totally be bright red, yellow, green, something"
	11:47am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:46 It was a little perspired there in the beginning, Andrew in Toronto.
	11:48am pot8o: gotta head to class, thanks Doug! best of luck on your surgery! have a great week everyone!
	🥁 11:49am StringOFperils: Bill Storm applying the high-pressure system
	11:49am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @11:48 Thank you, pot8o! Hope you learn up something good!
	11:50am adamdoesit: ↳ rw @11:47 rw, don't sweat it! I had to push back my visit to the powdercoaters, but I'm still thinking flame orange, signal yellow, lipstick pink…
	🥁 11:50am Artie: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:40 It doesn't necessarily take a bad file to trigger this, can be any combo of bad data, app state, and system state. New tech, new troubles. Stop/start app, and/or system in that order. Then check file on other player. This is the way. Glad you got it sorted.
	11:51am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Artie @11:50 It was prolly all of those things, Artie. First time in 14 years that it's happened. I'll see you in 2038.
	🥁 11:51am Mxter Baba: hello, Doug and folx!
	11:52am Mr C: Cool set man!
	🥁 11:53am Artie: @Doug - Good luck with your ocular laser drainage enholing. Wishing you fine powers of relaxation in the chair.
	11:53am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:51 Woo-hoo! Mxter Baba is in the mix!
	🥁 11:53am Mxter Baba: Just a splash!
	🥁 11:54am dutchtheo: Thanks and good luck, Doug!
	11:54am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Mr C @11:52 The MR C STAMP OF APPROVAL™!!!
	🥁 11:54am βrian: ↳ Artie @11:53 Afterward, Doug will be able to confirm the "ocular evidence" when watching blue movies.
	11:55am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Artie @11:53 Ocular laser drainage enholing sounds so friendly. Like, snuggling with a puppy or licking a double scoop of pistacio ice cream.
	11:55am Uncle Michael: HEY! wfmu.org...
	11:55am adamdoesit: Thank you for the beautiful music, Doug. Wishing you an easy surgery and a pleasant recovery.
	11:55am Jeff Golick: Thanks, Doug!
	🥁 11:55am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:31 I do approve! great effin' soul set, Doug.
	11:56am Doug Schulkind: ↳ adamdoesit @11:55 Thank you, adamdoesit and everyone!
	🥁 11:56am Mxter Baba: ↳ Song: "You've Got to Show Me" by "Sammy Jones" ok I just enjoy the back-up responses so much!
	🥁 11:56am Brian in UK: Good luck Mr S. Will you be able to play the piano after the procedure?
	11:56am Doug Schulkind: You've got to show Uncle Michael that you love him: wfmu.org...
	🥁 11:57am bobdc: Another great show! (I'll be listening to the first hour on tape delay and I'm looking forward to it.)
	🥁 11:57am Zip7: Thanks for another grand tour, Doug! Wishing you a painless procedure and speedy recovery

	11:58am rw: ↳ adamdoesit @11:50 Man. Tough. I don’t know if I’d have the confidence to go with pink, but I envy those who do.
	🥁 11:59am listener james from westwood: Doug, safe passage through the light, and clear vision be yours beyond!
	11:59am still b/p: While you're with the main operator today, to keep things loose, keep tossing quotes at him/her that are things said to or about Dr. Hackenpus. They love that.
	11:59am rw: Thamky thamky Doug!
	11:59am adamdoesit: ↳ rw @11:58 It's practical. Pink bikes never get stolen!
	🥁 11:59am DJ Peter: SEE you around, Doug. It'll be fine. Anxiety is normal: so is Valium.
	11:59am still b/p: ↳ still b/p @11:59 Rather, HackenBUSH.

	9:27am pot8o: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:13 not last night, but definitely the night before 😆
	9:27am Webhamster Henry: These guys are microdosing on acorns.
	9:28am adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "Mc Donald's Farm" by "Warren Caplinger's Cumberla... Old Mc Donald had some chipmunks, too.
	9:28am Little Danny: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:27 haha
	9:28am DJ Peter: 👍🏼
	9:28am Doug Schulkind: Now THAT was fuckn weird. The MP3 was playing at the wrong speed. How is that even possible?
	9:29am Stanley: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:28 Chipmunks got to it
	🥁 9:29am Zip7: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:28 I thought we were entering a wormhole
	9:29am Little Danny: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:28 play it again!!!
	9:30am Doug Schulkind: I think the possums have been nibbling on this digital file.
	9:31am Andrew in Toronto: Good morning, Doug, and all other listeners!
	9:31am KWilde: Someday Matinee!
	9:32am bigplanetnoise: Thank you so much!
	9:32am Webhamster Henry: Check the governor on your victrola, Doug!
	9:32am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:31 Good morning, Andrew in Toronto.
	9:32am Listener Robert: Aw, Foxy likes banjo (or mandolin)?
	9:37am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:32 Good morng, Chris.
	9:37am Gina Bacon: Morning, Doug & everybody!
	9:37am Marie in Chicago: Good morning, Doug and All! Wonderful gif. Music, universal language?
	9:37am Andrew in Toronto: Morning, Gina!
	9:38am Gina Bacon: I dig that background music!
	9:38am tim: ↳ Song: "Mere Angne Men" by "Alka Yagnik" Hey Doug and everyone! Just so I can look cool and act like I know what I'm talking about on the next It's Complicated. what's the time signature of this song?
	9:38am Marie in Chicago: Good morning, Andrew in Toronto
	9:38am Doug Schulkind: Glad you're here, Andrew in Toronto! Listener Robert! Marie in Chicago! Gina Bacon! (I'll give you your Pluto Walkers back now, Gina. Thanks for the loaner.)
	9:39am Gina Bacon: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:38 Hahaha! You're very welcome!
	9:40am Doug Schulkind: ↳ tim @9:38 Pardon my ignoramity, tim, but whaddyou mean?
	9:40am Gina Bacon: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:37 Morning, Andrew!
	9:41am Little Danny: lovin this set thusfar :)
	9:42am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Little Danny @9:41 This set's gonna love you right back, Little Danny!
	9:42am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Janina Ki Kore Bolbo" by "Arati Mukherjee" What a treat
	9:42am TDK60: Hello Doug.
	9:43am Chris Hiatt: ↳ tim @9:38 I loved the cut, but wasn't counting. I would consider this prog adjacent for sure though.
	9:44am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:40 It's Complicated with Dave Mandl on Monday night, the land of odd time signatures!
	9:44am Doug Schulkind: Greetings and groovings, TDK60!
	9:45am tim: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:40 No sweat! Just riffin on the crazy time signatures on Dave Mandl's prog show It's Complicated. And I was quite intrigued with the percussive time signature of Mere Angne Men :)
	9:46am Listener Gregory: Doug, you’re missing the chance to end the show an hour early by not playing those fast versions. Or play twice as much music!
	🥁 9:46am PAULS: Present! We just need to LISTEN faster is all.
	9:47am Little Danny: lol
	9:47am Little Danny: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:46 completely agree!!!
	9:47am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:46 Those obvious upsides have escaped my consciousness at this moment, Listener Gregory. Obviously, I have clicked some rando button that is speeding things up in Deck #1. Funny but annoying.
	9:48am Little Danny: this show is all about maximizing productivity, a real back burner to front burner sitch
	🥁 9:48am PAULS: HA -- problem what problem?!?
	9:50am TDK60: Down with slow music. We need speedy stuff. Get more music in.
	9:50am Doug Schulkind: Hello PAULS!
	🥁 9:50am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:50 morning, Doug! I slept in cuz I was up late watching tennis from down unda
	9:50am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ PAULS @9:46 Hiya, PAULS!
	🥁 9:51am PAULS: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:50 hello AiT!
	9:51am tim: ↳ Song: "Dilbar Dilbra" by "Nahid Akhtar" That the keys and guitar on this are wicked!!!
	9:52am tim: ↳ tim @9:51 Or is it a shahi baaja?
	9:53am Doug Schulkind: The shahi baaja ("royal instrument") is an electrified and slightly modified version of the Indian bulbul tarang, a type of Indian zither to which have been added typewriter keys which depress two of the strings to change their pitch.
	🥁 9:54am PAULS: Big finish!
	9:55am chresti: Morning Doug and drummers!
	9:56am tim: I saw string slinger Derek Moneypenny play a shahi baaja last year. That fried my brain and fried it some more. I couldn't get enough of it! derekmonypeny.bandcamp.com...
	9:56am tim: Man. this set rules, Doug!
	🥁 9:57am Zip7: Diggin' this set. Vindaloo for breakfast!
	9:58am TDK60: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:53 Doug, I was trying a bulbul tarang at a music store here, and some smart aleck came in the shop and promptly bought it, took it out of my hands. Oh well.
	9:59am Webhamster Henry: Bulbul tarangs are cheap!
	9:59am Marie in Chicago: ↳ tim @9:56 I totally agree with Tim. Hey Tim!
	10:00am TDK60: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:59 Hi W.H. I should try again?
	10:01am Little Danny: sick
	10:04am Chris Hiatt: Oh jeez, Doug. Hope it goes smoothly!
	10:04am listener james from westwood: Goodness, Doug, kindest tidings on the surgery!
	10:04am adamdoesit: Here's looking at YEOW!, Doug.
	🥁 10:04am Zip7: Oh my, Doug! Good luck with surgery.
	10:05am Little Danny: epic side
	10:05am Marie in Chicago: I had cataracts removed and I survived. They make it painless but it is anxiety provoking for sure. I hope you have a nice meal and restful evening to look forward to afterwards
	10:05am Webhamster Henry: ↳ TDK60 @10:00 I dunno - a quick look shows they are more expensive than I remember. You can get a taishogoto though, same thing basically: www.etsy.com...
	10:06am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning. A-pickin' and a-grinnin' there.
	10:06am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Hi Doug and all
	10:06am Doug Schulkind: Apparently I have a rare form of glaucoma. My eye doesn't relieve pressure that way it should naturally, so they have to burn a hole in there. Like installing a sump pump, I was told.
	10:07am Doug Schulkind: Great to see you again and always, Oleh! Ken From Hyde Park!
	10:07am Ramblin' Ray: Some serious music during the procedure might help. Best of luck with it.
	10:09am Doug Schulkind: Completely accidentally, I am playing a track about being blind. That's just great.
	🥁 10:10am Zip7: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:06 Oh jeez. I have glaucoma too. Take so many eyedrops my eyeballs feel like marinated cocktail onions.
	10:10am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Smooth sailing with the glaucoma treatment Doug. Sorry to hear about this and going under the knife, or laser I guess. Best wishes.
	10:11am still b/p: Sending best thoughts for ease and effectiveness. Cataract action was all cut, clear and insert. Laser comes in from the bullpen later if I/eye get the cloudiness that develops for a pretty sizeable percentage of patients. But they say that's still quick 'n slick. Yours is a more particular and serious sounding situation with the tool and type of condition.
	10:11am Listener Gregory: A second Randy Newman song? A new record (or are all of them??)!
	10:11am Little Danny: killin it doug
	10:11am TDK60: Doug, good luck with the eye procedure.
	10:11am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:11 All Randy, all the time, Listener Gregory.
	10:12am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:09 hee hee hee. I have glaucoma and use drops. I also had stents put in, which I do not recommend. Some forms of glaucoma are linked to certain b vitamin deficiencies. I have had a certain b vitamin deficiency since I was a kid. Now I take more b vitamins and lutein and bilberry for eye health
	🥁 10:12am dutchtheo: Great Irma, i picked that song for Uncles request show a few years ago. Good luck with the eyes operation!
	10:13am Doug Schulkind: Thanks, all, for the good thoughts. I have had this surgery looming for the last four months, and today is finally the day. I wish I could just do this with drops, but apparently no.
	🥁 10:13am DJ Peter: Doug, it's like the name of your middle school band (Optic Sump Pump) was a premonition! In all seriousness, you'll be fine: routine procedure and you'll be very happy with the result!
	10:13am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ dutchtheo @10:12 Hi, dutchtheo.
	10:13am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:13 Good luck and best wishes, Doug.
	🥁 10:14am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:13 Do you at least get to wear an eye patch for a few days?
	10:14am Doug Schulkind: Wish I had some old cassettes of Optic Sump Pump to serenade me.
	10:14am adamdoesit: Maybe Deck #1 can help you make those 5 uncomfortable minutes feel like 2 1/2.
	10:14am Doug Schulkind: ↳ PAULS @10:14 Arrrrrrrrrrhhhhhh, matey!
	10:15am zzz: ↳ Song: "I Wonder Why" by "Ella Fitzgerald" groovy Ella! morning DJ DS and all. best vibes on surgery DS
	10:15am Doug Schulkind: ↳ adamdoesit @10:14 I'm so pissed at Deck #1 right now. Still can't figure out the problem. Looks like I'm gonna have to fire my unpaid intern. Again.
	🥁 10:15am dutchtheo: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @10:13 Hi, Andrew!
	10:16am Doug Schulkind: Nice to see you awake, zzz!
	10:16am chresti: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:06 I heard that cannabis helps glaucoma
	10:17am Listener Gregory: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:15 That's the problem when you can't dock their pay—there's few options left.
	10:17am still b/p: Mess with the operating team in there and request a playlist with Bowie/Queen "Under Pressure" and Joel's "Pressure."
	10:17am Doug Schulkind: ↳ chresti @10:16 It's a weird kind of glaucoma, chresti. I think I need the hard stuff.
	10:18am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Sweet version of a lovely old RN song
	10:19am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Oleh from Pittsburgh @10:18 Indeed, Oleh. All these RN tunes sound great in the hands of these masterful divas!
	10:21am Stanley: All the classics today Doug.
	🥁 10:21am DJ Peter: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:15 Suggest you bring deck #1 along to your appointment. Sometimes a laser bee sting is all it takes.
	10:21am Doug Schulkind: ↳ DJ Peter @10:21 Now THAT is a capital idea, DJP.
	10:22am Oleh from Pittsburgh: So refreshing. This is how to approach a cover version.
	10:22am WR: Hi folks, weird priorities here, work is caught up but I am behind on WFMU.
	10:23am Doug Schulkind: I think I've solved the problem. Simply by closing the application and reopening. Wish me luck.
	🥁 10:23am βrian: It's a rain day, so Little Human is home from school. Loving the Etta.
	🥁 10:23am DJ Peter: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:23 Good luck!
	10:23am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind)" by "Etta ... great lyrics
	🥁 10:25am Zip7: Etta did some great RN covers. "Let's Burn Down the Cornfield" is another
	10:25am Marie in Chicago: I believe blindness was mentioned again there... @)
	10:25am Doug Schulkind: ↳ βrian @10:23 Wait, whut?!? A rain day? This is madness, βrian! You can't shovel rain!!!
	10:26am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zip7 @10:25 You are so right, Zip7. I had to decide amongst four of Etta's Randy Newman covers.
	10:27am Dean: Nina Simone was not happy with this CTI album. It appeared when I was working in a record store. We played it frequently, and I, for one, really enjoy it.
	10:27am Doug Schulkind: Oh, and by the way, NINA is COMING TO YOU FROM DECK #1 MOTHAHFUCKAHS!
	10:27am Marie in Chicago: love these lush strings
	10:28am Alex In Illinois: Hi y'all! Finally, no more meetings for the rest of the day.
	10:28am zzz: ↳ Dean @10:27 yeah Nina on CTI caught my eye, first i’m hearing this. kinda dig it
	10:28am Listener Gregory: I heard Randy Newman perform Baltimore IN the city of Baltimore shortly after that album was released. The song was supposedly controversial in the city (according to the press), but it received a huge roar of approval when he began it.
	10:29am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Marie in Chicago @10:27 Yes, Marie in Chicago! The strings make these tunes so dramatic! (And melodramatic.)
	10:29am Doug Schulkind: I'm glad you could attend this meeting, Alex in Illinois.
	🥁 10:30am βrian: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:25 Well, technically it's a teacher conference day, but it is raining.
	10:30am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:15 Your unpaid intern must be goofing off at the bar with my unpaid roadie.
	10:31am pot8o: did it!
	10:31am Marie in Chicago: I loved that version of Baltimore. Great set!
	🥁 10:31am DJ Peter: I mean I clickied the whole show but I'll clicky Erma too
	10:31am zzz: ↳ Song: "Baltimore" by "Nina Simone" apparently there was a bassist on this record, Homer Mensch— which is a truly excellent name
	10:32am Marie in Chicago: Yes!
	10:34am Webhamster Henry: Welcome back Mike Lupica!
	🥁 10:35am listener james from westwood: ONCE AGAIN BACK IS THE INCREDIBLE
	10:36am adamdoesit: 34!!
	🥁 10:36am DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @10:27 I hadn't realized this was a CTI album: Sony put out the CD editions of many of the 1970s CTI's, my CD of this is in the red border "columbia jazz masters" series.
	10:37am Doug Schulkind: ↳ zzz @10:31 Homer Mensch is my spirit animal.
	10:37am Little Danny: doug what was your motown-ish talkover music?
	10:38am pot8o: ↳ DJ Peter @10:36 cti is an excellent label, whenever i find something off there i have to grab it
	10:39am Dean: My copy is also the Columbia issue CD, but in '78 the 12x12 CTI LP arrived at the store. Those were the days when you could glance across a record store and pick out the CTI and Tappan Zee covers without fail.
	10:39am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Little Danny @10:37 Little Danny, that was a very gentle way of alerting me that I forgot to add the talkover track to my playlist. I just did, and thanks!
	10:40am Dean: An interesting set theme: tracks off albums the artists themselves did not like. Nina's Baltimore and Allan Holdsworth's Velvet Darkness, also CTI, come to mind as candidates.
	10:41am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @10:38 pot8o, CTI albums are appreciated almost as much for the covert art as for the music.
	10:41am Doug Schulkind: ↳ DJ Peter @10:31 Erma and I thank you, deeply, DJP.
	10:43am Jeff Golick: ↳ DJ Peter @10:36 Signing in to say hi and mostly to reiterate my total hatred for the Columbia Jazz Masters CD design, which in my view set the whole jazz reissue/rediscovery process back a couple decades.
	10:43am rw: Good
	10:43am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:28 Listener Gregory, I bet Randy Newman's "Baltimore" received mixed reviews in Baltimore the same way David Simon's television program The Wire did.
	10:43am rw: morning!
	10:43am spodiodi: Greetings and good * Doug and all!
	10:43am Doug Schulkind: Are Dubya!!
	10:44am Doug Schulkind: ↳ spodiodi @10:43 'ello 'ello, spodiodi!
	10:44am Doug Schulkind: I love that you're here, Jeff "Total Hatred" Golick!
	🥁 10:45am DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:43 Agreed, terrible. "People love the "nice price" sticker, so let's just make a sticker shape part of our design!
	10:45am Listener Gregory: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:43 I think it was mostly political posturing. The citizens of the town (those who heard the song) mostly thought, "Yeah, it IS hard." Clearly, Baltimore was intended as a specific exemplar of hard times throughout the country, which those who were not professional politicians realized.
	10:46am Doug Schulkind: And hello, up there, WR! Almost missed ya!
	10:47am Dean: Randy Newman had a habit of aggravating people, didn't he? The South? Short people?
	🥁 10:47am DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @10:39 Yeah, I don't love all CTI records but I love the CTI look. CTi and Impulse! had that in common: gatefold, glossy, full bleed (typically)
	10:47am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:45 Listener Gregory, I think Baltimore is sick and tired of being the exemplar of urban ills. Actually, I know this to be true.
	10:48am Doug Schulkind: ↳ DJ Peter @10:47 I know Yusef Lateef was delighted with his two releases on CTI.
	10:49am Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "To My Friend Kenny McKenny" by "Anthony Braxton" Although this album is officially a classic, I have somehow managed not to ever hear it. It's not bad!
	10:49am pot8o: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:41 cti album art is in a league of its own, that and prog came out on top for great album art
	10:50am Jeff Golick: ↳ DJ Peter @10:45 Whoever designed and ok'd this travesty will have to answer for it in hell: www.discogs.com...
	10:50am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:49 I see you tapping your foot, Listener Gregory.
	10:51am zzz: ↳ DJ Peter @10:47 was explaining to my daughter that these Taylor Swift “Midnight” covers have a strong CTI vibe (not sure how much she cared, and whether it was an intentional reference being made by TS designers) www.discogs.com...
	10:51am Jeff Golick: Also note for the record that I am not mad.
	10:51am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:50 It burns, Jeff Golick. It BURNS.
	10:51am zzz: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:50 brutal
	10:52am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:51 But you are mad for the record, amirite, Jeff Golick?!?
	10:53am Jeff Golick: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:52 Yooooooooooo you know it.
	10:53am Listener Gregory: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:50 In a mystery novel, this person would be found dead tomorrow morning, and Jeff would be getting a visit from the Law & Order detectives. (Yes, I just mixed my media.)
	10:53am Dean: It's too bad that the CJM reissue of Kind of Blue is the only issue including a hidden track not released on any other Miles record.
	🥁 10:53am DJ Peter: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:50 For an album that has never been out of print, that was indeed a bizarre cover design. (Also, if you've forgotten, they ECM'd that issue by adding more reverb.)
	10:54am Jeff Golick: ↳ Song: "Solo I" by "Julius Hemphill" How do I not know of this record!? Thanks for playing.
	🥁 10:54am DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @10:53 Not rising to the bait, Dean. Save it for April Fools.
	10:55am Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Solo I" by "Julius Hemphill" Julius Hemphill's birthday two days ago.
	10:55am Jeff Golick: ↳ zzz @10:51 I buy that there's a reference being made here!
	10:55am still b/p: I don't want no trouble, see, but looked this up again cuz confusing at the time. One of our comment friends a few months ago: "Not sure he'd ever been to Baltimore before he wrote it. No, Randy, Baltimore is not particularly close to the sea or the ocean." Ummmm....I don't get that. City with an important harborfront, serving oceangoing traffic, on a major saltwater estuary. Major Navy facility just down the road. I don't think sea-related references are a stretch, eh?
	10:56am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:54 I feel kinda bad about not playing a duet track (with Peter Kowald) from this Live at Kassopiea disc.
	10:56am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:55 Listener Gregory, yes! I did see mention of that, and then plum forgot. No doubt it was in the back of my mind.
	10:58am Doug Schulkind: ↳ still b/p @10:55 You tell 'em, still b/p!
	10:59am Dean: January 26th Fools!
	11:01am Doug Schulkind: Today would have been my mother's 93rd birthday. Gone eight years now.
	11:03am Listener Gregory: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:01 She would have loved this set!
	11:04am Dean: Eight years! Happy birthday, Doug's mom. My mom just made it to 93 in 2020, departed one month later.
	🥁 11:04am Kevin Nutt: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:01 Big virtual hug.
	11:06am chresti: ↳ Dean @11:04 My dad was one month away from 93 when he passed last January.
	11:07am Dean: We never forget these milestones, birthdays, days of loss...
	11:08am Marie in Chicago: music critics---so many weenies among them
	🥁 11:08am StringOFperils: That 'f*** you' was artistic and classical.
	11:08am Dean: A friend of mine has a mother aiming to reach 103 later this year.
	11:09am Marie in Chicago: Happy Birthday, Doug's mom.
	11:09am Listener Gregory: The Blindfold Test has turned into a love-fest, where the person starts out giving 5 stars and then ends up giving a million stars to their hero. It is not very informative.
	11:10am Chris Hiatt: There's only one good Blindfold Test, and that's one with Monk. He was categorically uninterested in assessing anyone else's music, when DB started playing his work then he turned on.
	11:10am Listener Gregory: Have to run, Doug. If only Deck 1 had kept playing fast, I would have heard the whole show by now.
	11:12am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @11:10 Run like the wind, Listener Gregory!
	11:13am Doug Schulkind: ↳ StringOFperils @11:08 Why thank you, StringOFperils. I take certain pride in my fuuuuuckyouuuuus.
	11:13am Alex In Illinois: ↳ still b/p @10:55 Agreed. I've been to the Baltimore Maritime museum, which includes a few ships on the water. The Battle of Baltimore (subject of US national anthem) took place among ships. A few artists that participated in the Chicago Maritime festivals, (when we had them) were based out of Baltimore.
	11:14am Doug Schulkind: Shit, maybe it's an omen that I'm ranting about blindfold tests right before going in for eye surgery. Shit.
	11:14am still b/p: In my dream last night my mother (95) kept talking and interfered with me trying to hear some important public notification on a phone-ish device. In waking life, mom is NOT talk talk talky or interfere-y with ANYthing.
	🥁 11:15am Zip7: From an Elvin Jones Blindfold Test: "Keith Moons drumming during 'Underture' of Tommy produced appreciative comments: 'see there, where the tempo started to die, how he picked it up! The man is a drummer. Everything they play, he contains it.' Only Ginger Baker, of the now defunct Blind Faith, got the strong put down. Raising his head after an ominously silent hearing of 'do what you like,' with its enormously long drum solo, Jones growled 'NOTHING'S HAPPENIN'. CATS GOT DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR WITH NO GROUNDS. THEY SHOULD MAKE HIM AN ASTRONAUT AND LOSE HIS ASS'!"
	11:15am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Marie in Chicago @11:09 Thanks, Marie in Chicago!
	11:15am chresti: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:14 Start practicing!
	11:16am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @11:08 Dean, my father used to say, "I'm shooting for 100," and then I would say, "I hope you've got good aim," and then we'd both chuckle.
	11:17am adamdoesit: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:14 Omen, schmomen. How would you not have blindness on your mind? There was a good interview on the state of jazz criticism with the superbly productive Ethan Iverson on Nate Chinen's substack yesterday: open.substack.com...
	11:17am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zip7 @11:15 An asstronaut, Zip7?!
	11:18am Dean: If I reach 100--one helluva "if," I know--I want to go around proclaiming, "That's so last century!"
	11:18am Doug Schulkind: ↳ adamdoesit @11:17 Ethan Iverson is everywhere these days, it seems. I like his blog Do the Math, quite a bit: ethaniverson.com
	11:20am chresti: ↳ Zip7 @11:15 Lol
	🥁 11:22am Brian in UK: Hello Doug. Talk of blindfold tests & eye surgery where are we going? Best wishes for the op. It should get you out of cooking the dinner tonight.
	11:22am spodiodi: My maternal grandfather would have been 100 yesterdayish
	🥁 11:22am DJ Peter: Apropos of the solo alto sax set: I came across this LP while crate digging the other day. Still confused. www.discogs.com...
	11:23am adamdoesit: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:18 He writes as easily as he plays piano, and he plays a lot of piano. The self-confidence blows me away, without feeling overblown.
	11:23am Marie in Chicago: ↳ chresti @11:06 I'm sorry for your loss, Christi, that is very recent.
	11:24am Doug Schulkind: ↳ DJ Peter @11:22 DJ Peter, I like the comment left on that Discogs post: "Great album to lull your captives to sleep in the crawlspace."
	🥁 11:24am DJ Peter: He's got it pegged
	11:25am Doug Schulkind: ↳ chresti @11:06 chresti, my dad was three months short of 98. Blessings upon our dads.
	🥁 11:25am StringOFperils: ↳ DJ Peter @11:22 They do Barney Google. And they're clowns. How avant is that...
	11:26am Doug Schulkind: ↳ adamdoesit @11:23 adamdoesit, I have yet to find the space to dig into Iverson old band The Bad Plus. Are you a fan?
	11:27am Dean: Speaking of clowns, this recent NYT profile of Cindy Sherman's latest work is intriguing: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/24/arts/design/cindy-sherman-photography-hauser-wirth.html?unlocked_article_code=1.Qk0.yliy.R-ZVuWSjTuaX&smid=url-share
	🥁 11:28am DJ Peter: ↳ StringOFperils @11:25 Thanks, SOp. That "helps"
	🥁 11:29am PAULS: Back from the nature walk to greet a soul set!
	11:29am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Nnem Agwagom" by "Obiajulu Sound Power of Africa ... so bummed that I have to go into meeting and miss this tune! Loving it already
	11:30am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Marie in Chicago @11:29 See you next time, Marie in Chicago! Have a meaty meeting!
	11:31am Doug Schulkind: ↳ PAULS @11:29 And what a soul set it's gonna be, PAULS. Methinks you will approve.
	11:31am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:26 I loved Bad Plus when Iverson was still in the group. I hear they're still good, though haven't listened much to the post Iverson stuff.
	11:33am adamdoesit: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:26 I dipped a toe, and pulled it back out, after giving it an unfair shake. I know folks love The Bad Plus, but I didn't feel drawn in by it.
	11:34am adamdoesit: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:31 Chris, do you have a favorite album of theirs?
	11:36am zzz: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:31 after Iverson and Orren Evans, went in a whole new direction, swapping out piano for sax & guitar thebadplus.bandcamp.com...
	🥁 11:37am Artie: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:28 Decoder thought the sample rate was something it wasn't. I've heard this happen on my digital players.
	🥁 11:37am bobdc: I suppose it's too late to request Dizzy Gillespie's "Sumphin'" to prepare for your procedure, but good luck anyway!
	11:37am Doug Schulkind: I think what put me off checking out The Bad Plus is that I keep seeing the name as The Bad Pus, and that just isn't very enticing.
	11:38am chresti: ↳ Dean @11:27 Yeah, she's been posting clown like grotesques of her face on instagram for the past couple years.
	11:38am Chris Hiatt: ↳ adamdoesit @11:34 I like These are the Vistas a lot. Cool originals and a couple of fantastic covers, IMHO.
	11:39am Dean: Whenever I'm asked for a portrait, I refer to this golden oldie: https://www.christies.com/lot/lot-cindy-sherman-untitled-5408946/?
	11:40am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Artie @11:37 Quite possible, Artie. Though the failure occurred on tracks that it had played previously without incident. I think it was just a weird spasm. I closed the app and reopened, and the problem was dismissed.
	🥁 11:40am doctorjazz: Late to the party (Zoom meetings, puppy care, busy busy). I had laser eye surgery a few months ago,. Best of luck with the procedure Doug!
	11:40am chresti: ↳ chresti @11:38 They're great!
	11:40am adamdoesit: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:37 It's a fine line between infectious and infected. Chris, thanks. I'll give it a spin this weekend.
	11:40am Chris Hiatt: ↳ zzz @11:36 Yeah, I gotta make time to check out this incarnation. Chris Speed is a really great woodwinder.
	11:41am Dean: doctorjazz can advise about recommended recordings of the original Bad Plus...
	11:41am rw: I picked up a used Bad Plus CD for $1. For some reason it won’t play in my car, but sounds alright in the house.
	11:41am Doug Schulkind: ↳ doctorjazz @11:40 I'm having an iridotomy, doctorjazz. If it works, supposedly it will fix the problem forever and ever.
	🥁 11:41am doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @11:33 Loved the original, Iverson Bad Plus. Didn't care for the Evans group, like the new incarnation (but haven't gotten to love yet) Saw the Iverson version live menay times, not the other versions.
	11:41am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Good luck Doug. I’m sure it will be fine. Probably very brief and 8K in insurance cost. Ain’t that amazing? Still, the most handsomely paid speciality is orthopedics.
	11:42am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @11:41 Sebaciously Oozing was the name of my first band in high school.
	11:42am rw: Doug, Bad Pus is a perfectly good band name.
	11:42am Doug Schulkind: ↳ rw @11:42 Meow, rw!
	🥁 11:43am doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @11:34 I'll look around my Bad Plus CDs, send you recommendations!
	11:43am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Oleh from Pittsburgh @11:41 Thanks, Oleh.
	🥁 11:43am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:42 I went to high school with Doug and I wanted in the Oozing SO BAD. PLUS.
	11:43am adamdoesit: ↳ Dean @11:41 Dean, I've been listening to Jimmy LaFave in odd moments this week. Great stuff, like walking into some no-name joint to find the best bar there ever was. Thanks for the tip.
	🥁 11:44am doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @11:41 Sending Best Wishes and vibes for the procedure!
	11:44am adamdoesit: ↳ doctorjazz @11:43 Thanks, doc!
	11:44am Dean: Great to hear, adamdoesit! You nailed it.
	11:45am Doug Schulkind: ↳ doctorjazz @11:44 Thanks, doc. I, as they say in Pittsburgh, a-PRISH-ee-ate-it.
	11:46am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:45 What an inspired show! Thanks, Doug!
	11:47am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:42 lol
	11:47am rw: adamdoesit, I know what I say doesn’t make a difference but I woke up in a cold sweat the other night thinking, “Was I encouraging adamdoesit to paint his Gary Fisher flat black? It should totally be bright red, yellow, green, something"
	11:47am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:46 It was a little perspired there in the beginning, Andrew in Toronto.
	11:48am pot8o: gotta head to class, thanks Doug! best of luck on your surgery! have a great week everyone!
	🥁 11:49am StringOFperils: Bill Storm applying the high-pressure system
	11:49am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @11:48 Thank you, pot8o! Hope you learn up something good!
	11:50am adamdoesit: ↳ rw @11:47 rw, don't sweat it! I had to push back my visit to the powdercoaters, but I'm still thinking flame orange, signal yellow, lipstick pink…
	🥁 11:50am Artie: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:40 It doesn't necessarily take a bad file to trigger this, can be any combo of bad data, app state, and system state. New tech, new troubles. Stop/start app, and/or system in that order. Then check file on other player. This is the way. Glad you got it sorted.
	11:51am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Artie @11:50 It was prolly all of those things, Artie. First time in 14 years that it's happened. I'll see you in 2038.
	🥁 11:51am Mxter Baba: hello, Doug and folx!
	11:52am Mr C: Cool set man!
	🥁 11:53am Artie: @Doug - Good luck with your ocular laser drainage enholing. Wishing you fine powers of relaxation in the chair.
	11:53am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:51 Woo-hoo! Mxter Baba is in the mix!
	🥁 11:53am Mxter Baba: Just a splash!
	🥁 11:54am dutchtheo: Thanks and good luck, Doug!
	11:54am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Mr C @11:52 The MR C STAMP OF APPROVAL™!!!
	🥁 11:54am βrian: ↳ Artie @11:53 Afterward, Doug will be able to confirm the "ocular evidence" when watching blue movies.
	11:55am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Artie @11:53 Ocular laser drainage enholing sounds so friendly. Like, snuggling with a puppy or licking a double scoop of pistacio ice cream.
	11:55am Uncle Michael: HEY! wfmu.org...
	11:55am adamdoesit: Thank you for the beautiful music, Doug. Wishing you an easy surgery and a pleasant recovery.
	11:55am Jeff Golick: Thanks, Doug!

	11:56am Doug Schulkind: ↳ adamdoesit @11:55 Thank you, adamdoesit and everyone!
	🥁 11:56am Mxter Baba: ↳ Song: "You've Got to Show Me" by "Sammy Jones" ok I just enjoy the back-up responses so much!
	🥁 11:56am Brian in UK: Good luck Mr S. Will you be able to play the piano after the procedure?
	11:56am Doug Schulkind: You've got to show Uncle Michael that you love him: wfmu.org...
	🥁 11:57am bobdc: Another great show! (I'll be listening to the first hour on tape delay and I'm looking forward to it.)
	🥁 11:57am Zip7: Thanks for another grand tour, Doug! Wishing you a painless procedure and speedy recovery

	11:58am rw: ↳ adamdoesit @11:50 Man. Tough. I don’t know if I’d have the confidence to go with pink, but I envy those who do.
	🥁 11:59am listener james from westwood: Doug, safe passage through the light, and clear vision be yours beyond!
	11:59am still b/p: While you're with the main operator today, to keep things loose, keep tossing quotes at him/her that are things said to or about Dr. Hackenpus. They love that.
	11:59am rw: Thamky thamky Doug!
	11:59am adamdoesit: ↳ rw @11:58 It's practical. Pink bikes never get stolen!
	🥁 11:59am DJ Peter: SEE you around, Doug. It'll be fine. Anxiety is normal: so is Valium.
