Playlist for Bryce - August 8, 2008

Fridays Noon - 3pm on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

I never miscue a record. I am punctual, well-prepared, and dislike clutter. Outgoing and helpful, I'm always appropriately dressed. I do not behave erratically and have excellent penmanship. My CD's never skip, and I am in good health. I like all the notes, in any order.

ohhhh I haven't heard Crispell play in a long time. I really like her.

Fri. 8/8/08 12:22pm From: jon

he's never gonna catch that piano. it's moving too fast!

Fri. 8/8/08 12:22pm From: bryce

i know! someone should get DARPA involved.

Fri. 8/8/08 12:28pm From: Matt

I love Bobby Few. He's criminally under appreciated.....

Bryce- you are killing it like usual this afternoon!

Fri. 8/8/08 12:32pm From: Dubs

who is in the band?

Fri. 8/8/08 12:33pm From: Hugo

Aah, this gotta be off the "More or less Few" on the Centre of the World label. Yup, got that one. With Alan Silva and Mohd. Ali. Stone killer!

Fri. 8/8/08 12:35pm From: Dubs

I knew it was Silva. That guy is rad

Fri. 8/8/08 12:43pm From: Dubs

Is this one for the Dubs or are you just awesome?

Fri. 8/8/08 12:45pm From: bryce

15% awesome, 80% obsequious, 5% self-loathing.

Fri. 8/8/08 12:52pm From: Hugo

more awesome, less obsequious ...

If we could get to hear the entire "Seasons", that would be truly awesome. Haven't even played the entire damn thing through myself ...

but Bryce could do it ...

Fri. 8/8/08 12:54pm From: bryce

hugo, get out of my head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(only this morning i narrowly didn't leave the house with that celestrial communication)

Fri. 8/8/08 12:59pm From: Dubs

True story: I am a radio DJ in St. Louis, MO. On January 31 of this year I indeed aired Seasons in it's 2 hour 40 minutes entirety with no interruptions. http://www.kdhx.org/index.php?option=com_kdhxradio&task=playlist&show=All%20Soul,%20No%20Borders&Itemid=268&date=2008-01-31

Fri. 8/8/08 1:01pm From: Hugo

That is TRULY awesome!

Fri. 8/8/08 1:02pm From: Dubs

100% awesome?

Fri. 8/8/08 1:02pm From: Dubs

0% obsequious

Fri. 8/8/08 1:05pm From: bryce

i'm fucking-a square root of negative one percent crestfallen.

Fri. 8/8/08 1:07pm From: Scott m

You're absolutely killin it, brother!

Fri. 8/8/08 1:08pm From: bryce

hey, man! was hoping you were butterfly stroking the aether....

Fri. 8/8/08 1:09pm From: Hugo

Wow, that's cosmically significant at the 0,005 per cent level!

Fri. 8/8/08 1:11pm From: Hugo

This set is stochastically indeterminate ...

Fri. 8/8/08 1:14pm From: bryce

bethany's gonna krinkle kut me!!

Fri. 8/8/08 1:19pm From: gumby

So how come Sun Ra is the only one to own up to coming from Saturn. There must be others out there. Come on out with it!

Fri. 8/8/08 1:24pm From: Mark

Wonderful set so far... Thanks Bryce!

Fri. 8/8/08 1:26pm From: Hugo

they're too shy to tell ...

can probably be attributed to problems of confidence interval ..?

Fri. 8/8/08 1:29pm From: mp

have you ever met any of the arkhestra members, past, present or future?
any one of them will answer your saturn question, with their energy alone.

Fri. 8/8/08 1:36pm From: gumby

There are worse places to be from than Saturn. I hear the girls are hot on Venus, but so is everything else.

Fri. 8/8/08 1:42pm From: north guinea hills

my friend just gave me 27 sun ra albums (mp3's), it's going to take awhile to get through them.

note: his late 80's stuff (ie: reflections in blue) really sucks!

Fri. 8/8/08 1:48pm From: mp

give that late 80's stuff a chance.
it may take 20 years but eventually it starts to get you.

Fri. 8/8/08 1:54pm From: gumby

I have to get some Sun Ra stuff. Where does one start?

Fri. 8/8/08 1:57pm From: Scott m

Start at Cosmic Tones.

Fri. 8/8/08 1:58pm From: Scott m

I started at Jazz in Silhouette but was sort of disappointed that it wasn't more far out. Now I think it's my favorite one (or one of them). Also, start with Bryce's show right now!

Fri. 8/8/08 2:00pm From: mp

if you are buying cd's i'd go with evidence records (el saturn reissue catalog) and the esp-disk's.

www.espdisk.com

Fri. 8/8/08 2:00pm From: Hugo

Well, you could start on the blog I'm running with some other folks.

http://www.inconstantsol.blogspot.com

(roughly midway down the first page - three 80s live recordings)

I might start posting some from my own mp3 archive, but it's not top of the list - but that can always be rearranged.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:03pm From: J

dude, don't apologize and don't stop!

Fri. 8/8/08 2:04pm From: ?

there is also a 3 part sun ra radio tribute with lots of interviews etc that was produced by wfmu dj "the good doctor" at http://espdisk.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=28&Itemid=86

Fri. 8/8/08 2:05pm From: J

Yes! Thank you!

Fri. 8/8/08 2:05pm From: Scott m

man Hugo I adore inconstant sol (in fact have linked to it from the wfmu blog many times). Fantastic work.

Salt Peanuts!

Fri. 8/8/08 2:06pm From: bryce

the good doctor played on lanquidity!

Fri. 8/8/08 2:07pm From: ?

I would second "Jazz in Silhouette" as a Sun Ra starting point

Fri. 8/8/08 2:11pm From: bartelby

Hi,
I can't hear this at work, but I did not know you played such good stuff. I will definitely be checking out this show on the archive in the next few days.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:13pm From: bryce

i don't usually! a recently piano fell on my head.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:13pm From: sm

sun ra solar myth approach vol 1 and 2

Fri. 8/8/08 2:13pm From: eric

i don't know what i've done to deserve all this sun ra today, but oh baby, thank you so so much. reminds me of all-night-sun-ra new year's eve shows i did in seattle years ago. thank you!

Fri. 8/8/08 2:14pm From: matt

I might be in the minority on this one, but I really like Other Planes of There

Fri. 8/8/08 2:15pm From: mp

wow, i did not know that. i knew he played with ra but didn't know there were any recordings (other than live tapes) and i love that album, will have to ask the good doc about that when i see him next. great show

Fri. 8/8/08 2:19pm From: Hugo

Good to hear, Scott. It has sort of evolved out of the old "Church number nine" blog, to which I did contribute, but not as a regular poster.

hugo aka "kinabalu"

Fri. 8/8/08 2:23pm From: Scott m

Yeah CN9 RIP, so many good records went up there. You are doing important work!

another killer Bryce jazz show: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/25824

If you're not already hooked on friday afternoons you will be after that.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:23pm From: gumby

Thanks for the Sun Ra suggestions and thanks Bryce for the indoctrination this afternoon.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:39pm From: Hugo

Scott, yes I think those two blogs have featured practically all artists on that playlist at one time or another. No wonder I'm stuck inside Bryce's head!

Your show is at an inconvenient time, at least for European listeners, but I do try to catch it on the archives. Some very fine selections there!

Fri. 8/8/08 2:41pm From: Johnny

Hola,
I'm glad you fell into an unplanned Sun Ra adventure. These things do happen.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:44pm From: m

forgot to bring my headphones to work today so i'm just watching the playlist unfurl and getting more sad... thanks bryce

Fri. 8/8/08 2:45pm From: Qfwfq

Wow, just want to say, this is some fantastic stuff...
Makes me wish I was on Saturn...or maybe not

Fri. 8/8/08 2:47pm From: Hugo

doesn't matter as long as Saturn's here ...

Fri. 8/8/08 2:49pm From: Matt

m, I'm listening at work and my co-workers are enjoying for the most part....I'm a lucky guy.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:50pm From: bryce

HOLY SHIT, no one's ever said that about this show before.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:52pm From: Matt

First time for everything!

Fri. 8/8/08 2:54pm From: J

I can think of nothing better than the fact that this has become a full on Sun Ra afternoon.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:56pm From: Parq

Hurra for the Ra. I caught only the tail end of it, but it was knock-out.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:58pm From: bryce

thanks, everybody!!
seriously, i'd like to send you all pizzas. please contact me.

Fri. 8/8/08 2:59pm From: gumby

If it makes you feel better bryce, my coworker just said, "What the hell are you listening to?" But this guy also considers Muddy Waters music strange.

Fri. 8/8/08 3:00pm From: Bad Ronald

could use a pizza right about now...

Thanks Bryce!

Fri. 8/8/08 3:39pm From: mp

i'll take sun ra over pizza anyday, thanks bryce.

Fri. 8/8/08 9:34pm From: TrUdE

First time listening to your show this afternoon / Long time supporter of WFMU. Really glad that Sun Ra was my afternoon background music at work on this rainy Montreal day!

Sat. 8/9/08 11:30am From: mark mcintyre

second stop is jupiter!
