Cool tribal sounds.... Reminds me of nights at college ('79) sitting around the shortwave radio listening to African stations sign on in the morning on the 60 meter band. (It was morning there, but just after midnight here....it sure beat studying!)

Tis some good stuff that I don't expose myself to enough.

Guten tag!

That Winston Jones was great, dissonant enough to be interesting, yet oddly soothing. I could have listened to that cycle through for an hour,

Fri. 12/7/07 9:57am From: Wes

I wanted to comment on the same tune, Parq..whatever "it" is, Winston has it.

My ears were having aural sex with Al-Khartoum Bulafoda. This show is a good listen for a Friday morning.

Fri. 12/7/07 10:01am From: Parq

Yeah, yeah Chance, you're right, that one was great too.

That Abayudaya track was truly remarkable, somehow reminiscent of the collaboration between the Taiwanese choir and David Darling which you've played before. Ola Belle Reed is remarkable, too, though, shall we say, in another "world".

now this is what i'm talkin' about... old-timey.

Ugandian Jews are awesome- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abayudaya

Hello blessed listenerfolk. (Especially you, Olga!) Speaking of daughters, my cherub Lincoln and I were just discussing when to do another on-air collaboration. Probably in February. Give the Daughter Some!

I was blessed to be able to see Johnny Cash perform live, although I was too young to fully appreciate what I was seeing. His son opened for him, some kind of weird (not the good kind) dark make-up depressing goth stuff...

fuck yeah! TVZ!!

Thanks for the Kim Doo Soo. I love it when you end a set of singer-songwriter type stuff with a non english speaker.

Jersey's own Barry Mitterhoff has played mandolin with Hazel's live band for years. The NYC area's folk/country heritage is rich, biatch!

Fri. 12/7/07 10:41am From: Chance From That Third World Country, Maine

The fact that Johnny Cash would let his son express himself in a seemingly radically different manner is gnarly.

Nice move w/ the Aktuala, Doug. Check out my blog, grown so ugly, for more of their stuff: http://grown-so-ugly.blogspot.com/search?q=aktuala

I'm partial to jejunum.

Fri. 12/7/07 11:16am From: Hey Eerowen

Your blog is precisly where I got La Terra from! I love Grown So Ugly. I visit it everyday. Many, many wonderful tracks I've played on the show have come from your efforts. So I THANK YOU con gusto!

Fri. 12/7/07 11:20am From: krex

Doug mentioned the 'miracle' of recorded sound before. It's so true. Thanks Doug! and thanks to the PR All-Starts. w00t!

Fri. 12/7/07 11:24am From: Eerowen

My pleasure, Doug, and many thanks right back at ya for introducing ME to so much good stuff. btw, you actually know me by my real name -- we and our wives took a birth class together back in 2000. ;)

Stay tuned on gsu -- ejg and I will be posting some updates soon.

OH! Also... Nice to hear a Malvina Reynolds track that ISN'T "Little Boxes" (not that there's anything wrong with that...). So, you know, thanks for that, too.

Fri. 12/7/07 11:24am From: N'Lo

Gracias! you are making me pine for my dancing nights at El Vasilon & the Lousiana Bar & Grill to Mo'Guajiro!

Fri. 12/7/07 11:28am From: Parq

Doug, I will be glad to hear your charming kinder ("Dad, why do they call it Abayaduya?") any time you care to bring her along.

Fri. 12/7/07 11:31am From: Marko

Eerowen:

Just checked out your blog.... very interesting and informative! I was wondering if you (or anyone else here) could recommend a guitarist whose work would be similar in style to Steve Tibbetts on his "Yr" album (one of my all-time faves).

Fri. 12/7/07 11:41am From: Sur

Oh, Doug, thank you for getting the bebop out of your system! I had not listened to your show, sadly, for several weeks, because that sort of jazz is just...not my thing. SO happy now that it's back to world-wide explorations in aural beauty! Y que viva Cuba!

Fri. 12/7/07 11:55am From: Sean Daily

Probably the last comment! Woo hoo!

Fri. 12/7/07 11:59am From: Andrew in Toronto

Thanks for playing soul and bebop and Cuban and and and....

Fri. 12/7/07 12:05pm From: Doug

Sur, the bebop will come and go, just like other waves in the ocean. We all must swallow a little saltwater now and then. Glad you were swimming along today!
