Listener comments!

  3:07pm
GUMBY:

If it's Lee Morgan it must be Irwin time.
  3:10pm
Sean Daily:

Nice start to the proceedings.
  3:13pm
north guinea hills:

wow, never heard this cannonball adderly track before. bravo! stumped again!
  3:20pm
Bad Ronald:

Nice Steely Dan cover!
  3:23pm
Sean Daily:

Don't lie to us, Irwin! MARIA WAS REALLY KENNY IN DISGUISE, WASN'T SHE! OR HE!
  3:24pm
north guinea hills:

some live albums kick ass, it depends on the band/musician....
  3:26pm
Bad Ronald:

Live at Leeds for example.
  3:32pm
Otis:

Some live albums suck royal ass. Van Halen's 1993 "Right Here Right Now" is so grandpa, even the codger would enjoy it... maybe.

But the majority of live albums do kick ass. It's always nice to hear a polished band recreate a sound live.
  3:32pm
Listener Dave:

Is this Moby track the substitute for today's obligatory Hall & Oates track? (See Maria and Ken's playlists for details on the H&O issue).
  3:34pm
JJZ:

It better not be!
  3:35pm
JJZ:

Well, I would prefer it not be.
  3:35pm
Otis:

OIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  3:37pm
Sean Daily:

"Up Came Oil" ROCKS, Irwin.
  3:38pm
Bren Collins:

I've got this awesome industry "musical" promoting G.E. Electricity. "The Nuclear Kid" is my favourite gun-slingin' western on the record!
  3:39pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

one more comment about live albums...I know someone who absolutely abhors hearing the audience. I find that interesting.
  3:40pm
Bren Collins:

The first Jandek live album irritated me because of that one guy in the audience who kept calling out "Yeah!!" every few seconds. Heh...
  3:42pm
carol:

Hey. Remembered to tune in (at the office). Heard Moby and thought I was listening to an ordinary radio station....for a minute.
  3:44pm
Otis:

I would buy an album with nothing but the sounds of audiences. There was recently a recording put out like this but with concert intermissions, http://tinyurl.com/3eyd6j
  3:50pm
north guinea hills:

Otis, that sounds like a Jan jelinek project....
  3:55pm
Irwin:

Otis, say hi to Carol. THAT Carol.
  3:58pm
Ismael:

a little concert intermission would sound good just... about... now.
  3:59pm
carol:

Hey, don't tell Otis what to do. Loved Dance, dance, dance and not just cuz of the title.
  4:01pm
Gigantor:

Yay! Calypso! And a new version of Cinemascope! Bring back Muriel (but for the first hour--I miss the last part of your show now)!
  4:02pm
Hooty Sapperticker:

Hi, Maelo!
  4:04pm
Ismael:

good mahwing! how ah you? this sounds like Ed Wood. yeuh.
  4:05pm
Harvey:

song of India!
  4:06pm
Groovy:

Yeah, groovy
  4:09pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

love your vinyl and it will perform
  4:15pm
Parq:

How 'bout a live recording of Cages 4'33"? An occasional cough, perhaps the rustle of progrm pages . . .
  4:21pm
Otis:

Bonjour Carol!
  4:23pm
Otis:

Got any R Stevie Moore today Irwin? Something classic maybe... with you on DRUMS?
  4:24pm
carol:

Ciao, Otis!
  4:34pm
Hooty Sapperticker:

This song contains invaluable advice.
  4:35pm
Peter K:

Regarding that Wayne Shorter track (great choice, by the way): Those musicians whose names you don't know are named McCoy Tyner, Reggie Workman, and Elvin Jones. Never heard of 'em. Just a bunch of hack session guys, I guess.

Regarding Louis Jordan: Yes! Yes! More! More! Always worth hearing -- and I'm very pleased to know that he and I practically share a birthday.
  4:37pm
Irwin:

Pete: Thanks for the personnel on the Shorter track. I have an mp3 and the liner notes are SO TINY.
  4:38pm
Otis:

You could play Jordan until 6pm and I would be a HAPPY man. This is the PERFECT antidote to a work filled afternoon.
  4:50pm
north guinea hills:

wow, never heard "jordan for president". wfmu has been throwing me unknowst-to-me jewels at me all day!
  4:51pm
Otis:

I don't know 1/2 of these songs. I love it, and I my productivity has doubled over the past 1/2hr.
  4:55pm
Listener Dave:

This Louis Jordan set is the best stuff I've heard all day. Beats Hall & Oates by miles and miles.

Thank you Irwin!
  4:59pm
G:

I've seen the group name spelled Tympany (not the same as the drum called tympani) -- not sure, though --

Great set...
  5:01pm
dave from sea:

How about some Slim Gaillard?
  5:04pm
Peter K:

Unless I missed it, I think that in "Jordan for President" (which I had never heard before either), presumably recorded sometime before the summer of 1952, he name-checks EVERY possible major-party presidential nominee for that year EXCEPT the eventual Democratic candidate, Adlai Stevenson. I'm not sure what this means, but it's kind of interesting, no?
  5:05pm
Irwin:

"Tympany" -- yep, you iz rite! I done fixed 'em all.
  5:05pm
Otis:

Slim's "Lauging in Rhythm" has to be one of my favorites of his. Right up there with "How High The Moon". I'm right with ya Dave. If not today, next week Irwin?
  5:06pm
Listener Dave:

So what would be the best Jordan compilation to buy if you didn't have $200 to blow on the Bear Family box?
  5:07pm
G:

np -- it's for the historical record, given the archive, lol
  5:09pm
dave from sea:

The Proper Jordan box, as well as their Slim Gaillard, are both excellent and a great bargain.
  5:42pm
Listener Dave:

Is anyone else waiting for X Ray Burns to yell "Jonesy!" or is it just me?
  5:47pm
Listener Dave:

Charmberlain was a setup reliever until about 6 weeks ago. Don't get many wins or even saves there.
  5:51pm
Irwin:

I know, I know. But FOUR LIFETIME W'S -- and he's already doing corporate endorsements?
