Sun. Dec 22nd, 3pm - 5pm:
The Unsolicited Return of the Winter Soul-stice (fill-in for Paul Bruno)
(More info...)
You can't stop the seasons from turning, and you evidently also can't stop an old dog from performing his one old trick. Answering the teeming clamor of one New York Times food columnist
, Gaylord Fields is returning to WFMU's airwaves for a one-off Winter Soul-stice program. In his time away he's learned nothing, so the format will remain the same: two hours of original 1960s soul 45s, and the abuse of an expensive reverb machine for the sake of corny vocal effects.
Hey, Jake, you had me bemoaning my childless status again when you said how great it would be if you had a kid nearby to say how rain makes the flowers grow.
Gaylord, those lyrics to Afro-blue are well wrought- but I still think that melody on its own(I'm thinking Coltrane here) has a mystical quality words get in the way of.
@StuartRose, “Hey, Jake, you had me bemoaning my childless status again when you said how great it would be if you had a kid nearby to say how rain makes the flowers grow.” Well as long as my posts are taken personally by random reason for little to no reason by someone I do not know on the Internet, my goal has been achieved.
...extending the conceit - I guess Sunday P.M.s FMU are like a whole little specific neighborhood of interesting, enriching & yet welcoming hangouts...
The best disco arrangers really had an ear for luscious strings and harmonies.
Only in FMU land, can Tommy Roe, My Bloody Valentine, and Silver Convention be such congenial housemates.
As usual, Gaylord, thanks for the melange.
