Fri. 5/30/08 9:22am From: jonathan

space is the place you know.

Fri. 5/30/08 9:40am From: A. Johnson

Doug, Please let us know when the version of Summertime was recorded. I am always especially interested to hear Porgy and Bess tunes recorded before the "return" of that music in the '50s.

Thanks

Fri. 5/30/08 9:40am From: Bad Ronald

This song is even funnier en Espanol!

Fri. 5/30/08 9:40am From: Paul Sherratt

I'm wondering if this Manuel " Loco " Valdes song was one of Franco's favourites ? ( Not le grande maitre, obviously ! )

Fri. 5/30/08 9:42am From: Paul Sherratt

... le grand !

Fri. 5/30/08 9:45am From: Doug

A. Johnson:
I wish I could provide details on Enrique Herrera's version of
"Summertime." The compilation I have offers no info. When I included that track on a Marathon Premium a few years ago, I did some Internet snooping and couldn't find any info. Maybe something has been posted since.

Fri. 5/30/08 9:55am From: Cecile

what did I miss last week> ;D

Fri. 5/30/08 10:02am From: Cecile

Dude...Doug, you're a Geminoid like me. No wonder I liked your show. :D

I turn very old tomorrow.

Fri. 5/30/08 10:05am From: Parq

'Cile, HBD from your very old cohort. Everybody, the photo on the home page today says it all.

Fri. 5/30/08 10:07am From: Cecile

thankee, Parq!

Fri. 5/30/08 10:07am From: Bad Ronald

Yes Happy BD C!!!

Fri. 5/30/08 10:09am From: north guinea hills

this song reminds me i need to invest in more beer cozies of various sizes (40 oz beer cozies, anyone?)

Fri. 5/30/08 10:11am From: Bad Ronald

Lovin' the honky tonk set!!!

Fri. 5/30/08 10:11am From: Cecile

I think that perhaps the Chihuahua needs a little bit less spicy diet. I'd hate to be cleaning that up.

Fri. 5/30/08 10:17am From: Mike

best show on the radio, no comparison...
i guess the internet is good for something as it's been about 13 years since my radio could pick up FMU's signal. thank you doug, for bringing something beautiful to friday morn

Fri. 5/30/08 10:17am From: Cecile

As my dad said about Hank Snow:

"You can't beat an old s**t-kicker".

In Finnish, his name is Heikki Lunta, the subject of an old Upper Michigan joke,

Fri. 5/30/08 10:35am From: Carmichael

Tiffany Shade!!

Fri. 5/30/08 10:43am From: Hugo

Ah, this is the part of the show where Doug morphs into Tony Coulter. It's only a matter of time, I suppose, before we get to hear the Edgar Broughton Band or Savage Rose or Burnin Red Ivanhoe ...

Fri. 5/30/08 10:45am From: Carmichael

Nothin' wrong with that, Hugo. I'm staring cross-legged at the lava lamp, diggin' the righteous tunes.

Fri. 5/30/08 10:45am From: Ken

I echo Mike's comments. Except I quibble on one point. The internet -- what about all the funny pictures of people getting hit in the head? Isn't that worth something?

Fri. 5/30/08 10:48am From: Cecile

Or the funny dog videos?

Fri. 5/30/08 10:50am From: Doug

Hugo,
Two of my favorite words in the English language are "Tony" and "Coulter."

Fri. 5/30/08 10:55am From: Parq

Without the Internet, we would never have had the Dancing Hamsters or Badger-Badger-Badger. 'Nuff said.

Fri. 5/30/08 10:59am From: Carmichael

Or the fat kid doing the Star wars light saber dance.

Fri. 5/30/08 11:02am From: Hugo

Doug,

my most recent purchase is a John Stevens lp (with Bobby Bradford), but that should come as no surprise, least of all to you. Never heard that SME before, btw ... hmmm ...

Fri. 5/30/08 11:12am From: Toby

My buddy John Kruth and longtime friend and collaborator w/The Masked Announcer (aka Joel Dorn) will be co-hosting an audio tribute to the late producer WKCR this Sunday afternoon. I saw Joel last summer. He told me something great: "I was always determined to fail on my own terms." Listen up...

Fri. 5/30/08 11:16am From: Hugo

Soft Heap - that should be Elton Dean, then. Never heard this one, either ...

Fri. 5/30/08 11:18am From: Doug

Toby,
Joel Dorn paid me the greatest complement I've ever had in my musical life. (He mentioned me in the liner notes to a Yusef Lateef reissue. Yusef being, of course, my all-time musical hero, guru and rabbi.) For that (and a thousand other reasons) I will always love Joel Dorn.

Fri. 5/30/08 11:19am From: Mike

i'm simply a bitter computer user. I can't say i've seen fat kids doing light saber dances, but it doesn't sound sweet...
anyway, i am happy to have re-connected with the fmu weirdness, not to mention great people like doug (when is lincoln appearing again?) and the likes of BA listeners like Hugo.

Fri. 5/30/08 11:26am From: Hugo

Mike, stay reconnected!

Fri. 5/30/08 11:29am From: Miki

Hey Doug,
We just met with Hugh Hopper in France, playing with the Canterbury Legends! What a lovely man and with such a soft touch on the bass...more to come!
Cheers!

Fri. 5/30/08 11:32am From: Parq

Just saw a guy on Madison Ave in a Pulaski Skwy teeshirt. Greeted him and said I was on way to listen to FMU myself. But I'm in business drag, so I don't know if he believed me. Maybe he'll see this post.

Fri. 5/30/08 11:33am From: Cecile

johnny dyani!

Fri. 5/30/08 11:42am From: Hugo

The Dyani duet should be "African Bass" on the Red label, out of Italy? If so, got it ...

Fri. 5/30/08 11:50am From: mike

poly - rhythm loveliness... how can anyone listen to 'pop-music' when master work like 'Odeiyolaoo" exist?

Fri. 5/30/08 11:51am From: Cecile

sometimes I like candy and sometimes I like a real meal.

Fri. 5/30/08 11:54am From: Parq

What 'Cile said. I don't confine myself to one flavor of ice cream, so why should I do so with music?

Fri. 5/30/08 11:57am From: north guinea hills

i consider pop music to be anything that approaches having a melody and repeatable recognizable rhythms , so, i would consider this pop music....

top 40 is another scoop all together.

Fri. 5/30/08 11:58am From: mike

alright, alright... britney spears vs. Enrique Herrera
