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.
Gaylord: Or, as Dionne sang, Here I Am. Wait, did I use that joke last week? I can't remember! Time-confusion and memory-loss = pandemic ailments for people w/o COVID.
@Julie P.: Nancy did a lot with what little she got from Frank. The opposite applies to Frank Jr., who has his dad's general singing ability but lacked Senior's soul.
@Gaylord: Yes, I guess I am. My last COVID test, a few days after a cold came on (and went), was negative. So as far as I know, I'm a healthy Wendalah!
@Jett thanks for the well wishes. One appt was great news but my 3rd overnight sleep study was harsh and i didn't want to spoil the flow of the show. I rested up at home afterwards. May all your REM be pleasant and productive.
I think I see a narrative developing with these song titles. Or maybe it's just my interpretation/projection. Either way, it's so good. Especially this Wizzard, which is new to me.
Mandalorian maybe
Oh, I don't really care much how it's spelled.

Funny, Sinatra was an issue earlier on the comment boards, Stork's show. I'm tepid. I've seen him twice live, once on the mark once way off. I don't think he's all that. Folks seem to invest a lot in Sinatra that isn't perhaps warranted. He had good shows and bad shows.
Good question, Julie P. I was a full-grown adult (whatever the hell that means), and my brother and I took our parents to see him a couple times. Once was shortly after the Universal Amphitheater was enclosed, so early
'80s.
Another cheer for the Russ Titelman show. I listened to the whole thing on the archives at work a few months ago and kept rewinding parts of it because it was so good.
@Wendy del Formaggio: I had wanted to do it for several years, since I proposed it to Russ. I think I was ready for it when I finally got around to it.
...as long as you don't buy all the TP...
Gaylord we need to start a whole new awards show & a unique new category in it to pay you proper tribute.
Those are unrelated statements...
Madam Sail, I just baked a winter vegetable pastry whachamacallet, and now we're going to stuff it in our faces with all this minor key wistfulness loud enough to wake the dead on it two rooms.
@Gaylord: Ooooh Creation! I love that label's Patron Saints of Teenage compilation (featuring Weather Prophets, Jasmine Minks, Biff Bang Pow! and other luminaries).
as for supraorbital travel, count me in - anytime - I've been doing a fair bit of quantum dimensional jumping myself of late - what a trip! (insert exploding mind/soul/heart emoji here) :D
Gaylord, you put this Ike Quebec on your Bossa Nova premium from a few years ago, right? I'm trying to figure out why it's familiar to me. I really love it.
@Gaylord: Yes, very true about poor Donny, and many other talented folks. His s/t album is one of my faves, as is the one he did with Roberta Flack. I found the latter on vinyl at my local record store for $3 or so. His voice goes right to my heart.
I had to look up Ghost Funk Orchestra. Colemine is becoming a favorite label of mine.

Joe R.:
Ghost Funk Orchestra is one helluva band name

Hi Jnorton34328. Sadly I haven't listened to TOPT's archived program. Made doughnuts, fed cats 3x, drove Child to play date, played guitar, made dinner.
Lectric pianer - nice round tone, its own instrument... obviously there are many electronic keyboard tones that are - insufficient. When they should know better.
...I'ma start a faux Bossa Beatles band call it Eight Mendes A Week...
Uncle Michael I kind of like that real Soulful version that Three Dog Night does with that boy I forget what his name is...that one singer who really gets down???...:)
@Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Haha! You goofball! I know I shouldn't encourage you.

Y’all are really giving me some giggles. I think I made up a new word describing myself:
sillebral.
Gaylord ... I knew it came off WRONG... sorry.. You are amazing and with the goodness... We Are Again Moving Forwards!!!!! Unfortunately, old folk like you and i will be deceaed when the youth and goodness prevail...
Gaylord Fields:
