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?

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.

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

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!

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?

From:

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.

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

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.

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!

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...

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

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.
