pat - you have to suffer for the music. what's more important: Trane or your job? i think the answer should be clear to you. | |
|

Hmm, job or music?...Well, I work for a conservation org so really I'm working to preserve this planet for human life so everyone can go on listening to music. I guess I'll sacrifice my ears for the good of all... | |

Eric Hoffsten:
Great show as always, Doug. Really grooved on that Os Canibais, which reminded me that I hadn't been to Brazilian Nuggets in a while... and lo and behold! | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 9:51am
Doug:
Eric, Now you know all my secrets! Brazilian Nuggets is fantastic. Also check out Loronix and J Thyme... Kind for other amazing Brazilian downloads. | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 9:51am

Is all this stuff you're playing off the brazilian nuggets site? | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 10:02am
Parq:
While we're on the subject of cool music blogs, Crud Crud is a great source for FMUish off-off-mainstream music, domestic and international. | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 10:03am
Doug:
Christina, Three of the Brazilian tracks ARE from that site! It's been a good couple of weeks over at Brazilian Nuggets. | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 10:06am

Yeah, this is making it hard to work since I have to keep coming back to this window to see what's playing! | |

krex:
I did that as soon as I read about it earlier this week. not dorky, 'prepared'. | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 11:09am
mike:
Thanks for the tip Christina. I wrote it on a regular calendar like an incompetent dork. I'm transferring it to the space age right now. Doug- thank you, thank you, thank you. | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 11:10am
Doug:
We are all dorks together. Long live the dorks. | |

Christina:
I pass thru Philly on the train when I go from NYC to DC to see the folks ... boy is it down at the heel. I"m sure there are revitalized areas but I was shocked. When I think of messed up cities I think of Baltimore or Detroit, not Philadelphia. | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 11:29am
Bob DuCharme:
Cal Massey's name just keeps coming up... I got the album off of emusic.com, and it's great, but I wish someone had tuned that piano before they recorded it. | |
|

Liz French:
Hi Doug: Was this doc ever aired? I will send a letter of appreciation, this is a TREASURE. thanks for broadcasting it. | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 11:44am
Lars:
This is really great. Can't wait for next week. Expect my love letter to the producer sometime soon. (Especially since I'll be away from all internet two Fridays from now!) | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 11:45am
Doug:
"Tell Me How Long Trane's Been Gone" first aired on public radio stations across the country back in 2001, which would have been Coltrane's 75th year. It has never aired since and has never been made available commercially. | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 11:48am
Christina:
Think about what's to come -- the greatness they're going to cover in the next four hours. We've barely gotten started, here. | |
|
Fri. 10/5/07 12:00pm
mike:
"A Force for good." God- I'm sitting here at my desk trying not to cry. I'll definitely write a thank you to the producers for this. Transcendent. | |
