Hello ndbob! Glad you're here (there).

good tuesday, all!
when i saw vintage nfl films footage on the tv at the gym this a.m., i had a feeling we'd lost a classic player.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:58pm Doug Schulkind:

If we lost a Vlassic player, we'd be in a pickle.

I half-soured on your sense of humor, Listener James

mostly I remember Deacon Jones from his shaving cream commercials with Oscar Madison

Hi davex and you, too, hyde! Glad you friends are aboard the jalopy!

Crackin' open a jar of Mount Olive Sweets and settling in for the duration...

Well well well, if it isn't Artie!

I hope you're well, Artie.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:11pm Artie:

Cool and clear after only thirty feet of drilling, I'm well indeed.

If you strike oil, be sure to share with your fellow Drummersomey Hillbillies.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:14pm Ike:

Hello Doug. I notice your competition this evening on the main channel is "Catch-all code for archives of random shows/events." Scintillating, but I'd say "Give the Drummer Some" is probably a better title overall.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:15pm Doug Schulkind:

Damn, I was gonna use "Catch-all code for archives of random shows/events" as my next show title!

Todd-o-phonic Todd played a Fearsome Foursome 45 this morning.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:18pm davex:

Doug: You really should!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:19pm Doug Schulkind:

Probably the same one that will end the coming set...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:20pm Doug Schulkind:

NO! I have a different Fearsome Foursome 45!
Avatar 6:20pm fleep:

Whew!

Hey fleep, you're in deep now. Don't try to fight it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:29pm Uncle Michael:

Been out listening on the mower. Great stuff...though I had The Deacon Is Movin' In in my show folder BEFORE the news broke. Grr...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:30pm Uncle Michael:

Doug, the book you referenced is The First Fifty Years. I had it and loved it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:30pm Doug Schulkind:

Someone is moving their lawn just down the street from me and the aroma of new-cut grass is heady and wonderful. Just like you, Uncle Michael.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:31pm Uncle Michael:

I remember the pages that showed the evolution of the uniforms and equipment. George Halas as a Decatur Staley...and the full page image of the state of the art was Bob Lily!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:32pm listener james from westwood:

thank the nine christs for fine music like this. as i listen, i am fact-checking the ages of the members of prefab boy band one direction. oy.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:32pm Doug Schulkind:

Yes, that's right, UM. Nine-year-old me gave that book to my father, then didn't relinquish it for years. Do you remember that photo of our man Deacon flying over the offensive line?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:33pm Doug Schulkind:

@LJFW
It's that tenth christ you gotta watch out for.
Avatar 6:33pm Matt from Springfield:

Catch all code for drummers of random songs! Hey Doug and everyone!

Oh wow, a colleague said today that "one of his heroes", Deacon Jones "just died"--didn't know it was just just now died.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:33pm Uncle Michael:

I do...but not so clearly like you do. I remember a great picture of my man Butkus.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:34pm Doug Schulkind:

Apropos of nothing: My wife's grandfather played for Amos Alonzo Stagg.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:35pm Uncle Michael:

There's some superb Fearsome Foursome on youtube.

Hello!
Avatar 6:35pm ndbob:

sounds like Rosie here
Avatar 6:36pm hyde:

drummer some playlist is pretty sportsy lately. i think it's time for some chest bumps.
Avatar 6:36pm northguineahills:

It is Rosie.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:36pm Uncle Michael:

I prefer Rosie's duet with Ray Milland.
Avatar 6:36pm Matt from Springfield:

Great Fearsome Foursome! If you ever wanted to hear nursery rhymes at a sock hop, this the group to hire!

GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO PROGRAMMING ALERT...
Our hero Jesse Kaminsky will hit the stream paddling with another episode of KAMINSKY KAMOUTSKY immediately following this show, at 7pm (ET). Here is Jesse's playlist page: wfmu.org...
Avatar 6:41pm Matt from Springfield:

Totally not thrilled with George Allen (Jr), and think they were better Redskins coaches than George Allen (Sr), but the Coach Allen was very loyal to his players, so no offense taken to Deacon stumping for his son.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:43pm Doug Schulkind:

@Matt from S
You have it exactly right about Allen/Jones. George Allen Sr was fiercely to his players. He always called Jones the greatest defensive end in NFL history. I believe Allen introduced Jones for his Hall of Fame induction speech. Jones was obviously be loyal to Allen, Jr.
Avatar 🥁 6:44pm duke:

Fare thee well Deacon Jones
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:44pm Doug Schulkind:

Two heads are better than one, Uncle Michael.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:45pm Uncle Michael:

can you imagine waking up and finding Milland growing out of your neck?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:46pm Doug Schulkind:

Better than having him grow out of your [bleeeep].
Avatar 6:46pm hyde:

oooh, it's lefty fiddler Daniel Huggins Williams.
Avatar 6:48pm Matt from Springfield:

The East Texas Serenaders are a welcome recurring band on GTDS--pretty cool of you to know their members, hyde!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:48pm Doug Schulkind:

Well these tracks I recorded off Spotify really sound shitty. I'm guessing they do that on purpose. I am such an emeffing cheapskate.

Avatar 6:51pm hyde:

@Matt only remembered because it always gets pointed out he was a lefty!
Avatar 6:53pm Matt from Springfield:

Wray Men!!

@hyde: That's why there were so many fiddlers named "Lefty"! :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:53pm Doug Schulkind:

If you want your children to grow up a whole lot in a short time, drag 'em into the room for this next and final track. It tells the truth and the nothing but the filthy truth.
Avatar 6:54pm ndbob:

excellent show Deacon Doug!
Avatar 6:54pm Matt from Springfield:

Oh wow, Deacon was one of the four (along with George Plimpton) who held down Sirhan Sirhan at the Ambassador Hotel right after he assassinated Robert Kennedy: ""So I see George Plimpton has the gun pointed at his face, and I'm concerned that it is going to go off, so I put my hand under the trigger housing and I pulled back the hammer so it couldn't strike. I wrench the gun from Sirhan. I find the pin and I ripped it out and held it. Now I have the gun in my hand, so I shove it in my pocket." "
Avatar 6:54pm hyde:

@Doug awful funereal here today. but good pickup tune to go out on. oh, didn't he ramble.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:55pm Doug Schulkind:

@Matt from Springfield
No, that was Rosey Grier.
Avatar 6:56pm Matt from Springfield:

Aaah, I'm stupid--I linked to the last surviving member of the Foursome, Rosey Grier, and quoted from his page. Please attribute the above to him! :D
Avatar 6:57pm Matt from Springfield:

@Doug: Good thing the children don't speak Cajun!! ;)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:57pm Uncle Michael:

FILTH!
Avatar 6:58pm Holly in NC:

Doug!!!!!!!! Everyone!!!!!!!!!
@Artie - dang, as a fellow NCer I perhaps stupidly assumed you'd be down w the long-running Mt Olive boycott.
Always 2 sides :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:58pm Uncle Michael:

Unitas is GOING DOWN.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:58pm davex:

Matt: Exactly - good tune though.
Doug: Great set - who knew there were so many songs with the same original name!
Avatar 6:59pm Matt from Springfield:

AMEN, Deacon! A rousin' Hallelujah to the dear departed Deacon Jones--the deceased Rams in Heaven will be glad to have him home for their next afterlife NFL game!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:59pm listener james from westwood:

fine sendoff for the deacon, doug! thanks!
Avatar 7:00pm fleep:

Thanks, Doug.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:00pm Doug Schulkind:

Blessings upon you all, fellow travelers!
Avatar 7:00pm Matt from Springfield:

Have a great evenin', everyone!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:42am Artie:

@Holly: Farm Labor Organizing Committee was able to organize Mt Olive way back in 2004, and called off the boycott soon after. 6000+ guest workers covered under collective bargaining agreement.
Avatar 🥁 12:09pm bobdc:

(Because of some travel, I'm a little behind on listening to your shows.) Jones' singing career reminded me of a bit of confusion I had when I was about 12: I knew that "Jim" is short for "James," and that actors are sometimes singers, and that Jim Brown the running back was also an actor; a schoolmate had to explain to me that James Brown was not the same person.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:11pm Doug Schulkind:

@bobdc
I think if Jim Brown and James Brown had been the same person, the universe would have imploded. In a good way.
