I'm so sorry I'm going to miss the documentary. My boss boss is here today and will be in meetings all day. Get them to put it out!!! Hope you feel better.

Fri. 10/26/07 9:28am From: Parq

Those Hawaiian tracks have me sitting here trying to remember the name of that mid-80s air staffer who had lived in Hawaii for a time and specialized in trad Hawaiian music. She had long dark hair and glasses, and was on Saturday afternoons -- occupying, I think, the slot on which Rex currently is seated. Anyone?

Fri. 10/26/07 9:32am From: HotRod

Mmm...mmm...mmm mmm..mmmm...

Fri. 10/26/07 9:51am From: Dedalus

Tuning in for the first time from Dublin, Ireland. Loving the show in work... will listen in again for sure. Warm regards. D.

Fri. 10/26/07 9:52am From: Parq

Doug, what kind of cap did they market to Mexican kids as a "Pancho Lopez hat"? Hey Dedalus, say hi to all at Road Records for me.

Fri. 10/26/07 9:53am From: Doug

Hey Hey Dedalus!
Glad you're here. Grab an oar and start rowing.

Cheers,
Doug

Fri. 10/26/07 9:54am From: Doug

Parq, making it even stranger, those "Pancho Lopez" dudes were Brazilian.

Fri. 10/26/07 10:09am From: Brandon

Fri. 10/26/07 10:09am From: Jared

Fri. 10/26/07 10:24am From: Bad Ronald

Mmmmmm, shrooms!

Fri. 10/26/07 10:34am From: Jared

Fri. 10/26/07 10:46am From: frank

tuning in from the lowcountry, Charleston, SC. Rainy day, here, but not dreaming it away, unfortunately....

Fri. 10/26/07 10:55am From: Joe

Doug, your show is fantastic. I'm a recent convert drawn in by the Trane doc, but I love the breadth of your playlists. Thanks from Chicago!

Fri. 10/26/07 11:06am From: Josh

Hi Doug, thanks for all the great music over the years. Do you know of a site that has more information on the Coltrane documentary?

Fri. 10/26/07 11:09am From: Doug

Josh, the pleasure's mine! Your best bet for more info on the documentary is www.artistowned.com which is the site run by the doc's producer, Steve Rowland.

Fri. 10/26/07 11:11am From: Rob

Hey,
I happen to have an office hour during this Coltrane documentary and I have loved it these past weeks. I recently read the book "The House that Trane Built" on the Impulse Records story so this is a great companion to that.
Thanks,
Rob

Gratitude and greetings from the Waterford/Kilkenny border country. You broadcast the medicine of light.

Just getting deep into jazz recently, so this documentary is absolutely perfect. Absolutely brilliant, thanks doug.

Picked up Love Supreme on vinyl a couple weeks ago, along with a couple Sun Ra records, but otherwise just barely dipped my toes into the jazz pool with some downloaded albums.

Fri. 10/26/07 11:31am From: Wes

A Love Supreme is the Coltrane album I first bought, as well. Captain Beefheart turned me on to his work. This documentary is excellent, I've really enjoyed it as I've caught pieces here and there. Please publish the entire thing, producer man!

Fri. 10/26/07 11:33am From: Sun Ra

"weeeelllll, I was working on my space things, as usual."

Fri. 10/26/07 11:37am From: Doug

With my newborn daughter in my arms, I danced in the hospital to A Love Supreme. OK, gotta go. I'm starting to tear up again...

Fri. 10/26/07 12:03pm From: north guinea hills

coltrane's techniques and abstractions became fractals within themselves until they bifurcated and transcended all time space w/ pure love and joy

Fri. 10/26/07 12:10pm From: Brian Sanders

Congratulations, Steve Rowland. You can hear the care & love that has gone into this doc. Just to hear all those voices; it deserves a wider audience. So...... Power to you Doug for letting us hear it.
