i know it's probably not really a request show ... but how about some filipino music ? :) i have a friend listening in the philippines and he'd enjoy hearing some tagalog on wfmu
thanks !

Fri. 2/6/09 9:38am From: texas scott

Hello to everyone of youse.
PTMP?
Good stuff,Doug!

Fri. 2/6/09 9:42am From: Hugo

I did pick up some filipino from a record shop in Makati, Metro Manila some years back. Some very interesting instrumental folk music on those cds ...

Fri. 2/6/09 9:45am From: postmanpaul

talking of agents, annie, mine suggested a name makeover, something that might roll off the tongue a little easier. well, after he said that we came up with several unprintable ones. and settled on postmanpaul. he thinks it might also help bring out the female side of my nature. after his first suggestion, i wasn't quite sure what he meant by that.

Fri. 2/6/09 9:48am From: annie

hhmmmmmmmmm gotta chew on that for a while... PMP> ok i can do it.. one thing, straighten your kilt.

Fri. 2/6/09 9:50am From: Cecile

give me good ticket buying karma, internet box office for this one show I want to see opens in an hour or so...

Fri. 2/6/09 9:50am From: postmanpaul

woohoo, kilt lifted!

Fri. 2/6/09 9:51am From: Cecile

*hides virtual eyes*

Fri. 2/6/09 9:52am From: ?

Any one out there keen to start a WFMU tribute band?

Fri. 2/6/09 9:53am From: postmanpaul

Cecile - can karma be bought that easily?

Fri. 2/6/09 9:53am From: miki

Mornin' Doug!
Luv the Moffett Man!
Groovy!

Fri. 2/6/09 9:53am From: Cecile

Only if I can be Kenny G.

Fri. 2/6/09 9:54am From: Doug from DC

Doug, really enjoying this. This isn't the track with his son Cody on it, is it?

Fri. 2/6/09 9:55am From: Cecile

Hey, DFDC, I got Kenny to read the cupcake dog poem on his show...

Fri. 2/6/09 9:56am From: Cecile

I thought Chales Moffett's son was Charnette?

Fri. 2/6/09 9:56am From: Drummer Some

Doug from DC:
Cody (Codaryl) is seven years old on this record!

Fri. 2/6/09 9:58am From: Cecile

More Moffets, wow, cool
that's like that Empty Foxhole record with Denardo Coleman in diapers...

Fri. 2/6/09 9:58am From: Doug from DC

Awesome, thanks Cecile! Was it this week's show or last?
DS - I know, and he's still playing drums! Charnette is his other son. This is Codaryl.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:01am From: Cecile

this week's, and I made sure he gave a shout out to your blog, too.

this Lancaster sure don't fake the funk. Great Friday music.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:03am From: Doctor B

Oooh , I LOVE what you're playing this morning! Keep the great jazz coming!

Fri. 2/6/09 10:03am From: Cecile

OH - does anyone know where I can download a copy of Air Lore by Air?
I would spend whatever they ask for it, but i never see any copies these days...

Fri. 2/6/09 10:06am From: dc pat

I don't expect to hear much Cramps coming out of Give the Drummer Some, BUT I know you have the music that made the Cramps possible. I could use some Ronnie Dawson about now..

Fri. 2/6/09 10:16am From: Drummer Some

DC Pat,
Funny, but heard that Lux listened to nothing but Gregorian chants...

Fri. 2/6/09 10:18am From: dc pat

Yeah, those chants on the Sun label are bitchin!

Fri. 2/6/09 10:19am From: Drummer Some

Cecile,
Not sure if the link is still active, but here you go:

This latin stuff is really working for me right now...

Fri. 2/6/09 10:21am From: Cecile

thank you, Doug, it looks like it's still good.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:22am From: Cecile

id est nothing but a hound dog?

Fri. 2/6/09 10:25am From: Carmichael

Good mornin' Douglas and everyone. This is just the music I need on a Friday morning.

Wasn't this the music Kramer and Newman were listening to while grinding sausages?

Fri. 2/6/09 10:26am From: Freddy

It does sound like that song

Fri. 2/6/09 10:27am From: Freddy

Morning everyone

Fri. 2/6/09 10:34am From: Rey Cruz

great selections as always, Doug!
I only knew Joseito Mateo for his merengues but I recently learned he used to be original vocalist for El Gran Combo.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:34am From: Ike

Carm, I never understood Seinfeld. Red Dwarf and the first 8 yrs. of the Simpsons are vastly better than Seinfeld. Actually, eating dirt and being beaten with pointy sticks is vastly better than Seinfeld.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:37am From: annie

so weird, i'm heading into the city today, returning late tonight, and staying at a friend's house; brunch with another friend saturday. feel like a million bucks!!! i get to see people!! woohoo!!

Fri. 2/6/09 10:37am From: Parq

Morning all, arriving late to the party. Saw a cardinal in the park while walking the dog this morning. Not sure what it means, but given the ice-blasted wasteland that is currently our neck of the woods, it can't be bad news.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:38am From: Parq

And I haven't checked Doug's blogpost yet. "Whistle Bait" is on it? People, trust your Uncle Parq and grab it. I've had it for years, and never get even a little tired of it.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:38am From: annie

parq, it definitely qualifies as good news!

Fri. 2/6/09 10:38am From: Rey

@Ike:
That's kinda how I feel about Curb Your Enthusiasm. Similar type shows but somehow I can take Seinfeld. Must be my crush on Julia Louis -D.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:39am From: chris

Curb rules!!!!! Give it another try

Fri. 2/6/09 10:42am From: Cecile

I am obsessed by Flight of the Conchords and Reno 911! so all this stuff sounds like crazy talk to me.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:43am From: postmanpaul

poo, must dash, par excellent doug.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:43am From: annie

movie recommendation: lalo schifrin's "tango". sooo damn sexy.. the music makes it all the better, not to mention all the great dancing.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:43am From: Carmichael

I do like Curb Your Enthusiasm, but it's a little different than Seinfeld. I've always liked the Simpsons, but I can't watch any other animated show.

When I was younger, I couldn't stand to read comic books either, except for Mad magazine, which doesn't really qualify.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:45am From: dc pat

THIS Zeit tune is amazing! I vote for 30 Rock.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:45am From: Carmichael

I just saw Flight of the Conchords for the first time. It's quirky enough that I enjoy it. If someone should die as a result of a bad joke, it would be near-perfect.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:46am From: annie

beavis and butthead, and family guy were thrust upon me and i have loved them.. just get rid of the damn commercials..

Fri. 2/6/09 10:47am From: Parq

Sitcoms in general - TV shows in general, for that matter - don't make it for me any more. The last thing I watched regularly was the first season of Fraiser. And Ike, you've got to stop holding back, it's going to eat you up inside.

Fri. 2/6/09 10:48am From: Parq

huh-huh huh-huh. Annie said "thrust".

Fri. 2/6/09 10:49am From: NS Andy

Wholly Shit! This is indeed Profundhu!!!! (Muttos)

Fri. 2/6/09 10:50am From: ?

Doug, is this the end of the set? This sounds way cool in my book. Is this from the link you put in Vol. 1 of the download list?

Fri. 2/6/09 10:50am From: Hugo

Ah, Winter & Winter, they sure know how to make good-looking cds. That Marras track - Southern Italy or the outer islands - Sardinia?

Fri. 2/6/09 10:55am From: Doug from DC

I was just looking this up, they're from Sardinia. Footage on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpycH2jV4Ow

Fri. 2/6/09 10:57am From: NS Andy

There is a resemblance to Georgian acapella singing

Fri. 2/6/09 10:57am From: Ike

Holy heck. Almost reminds me of Tuvan throat singing.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:03am From: Chopaho

I miss old TV shows like Who's the Boss, Perfect Strangers, Alf, Small Wonder. Stuff like that TV now a days just sucks

Fri. 2/6/09 11:04am From: Carmichael

More Sean Nos singing, please.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:06am From: Rey

@Chopaho:
A lot of these old shows are now available for free on the internets.
I'd watch more of them if I wasn't too busy downloading music from Doug's Audio Motherlode

Fri. 2/6/09 11:07am From: Cecile

Alright. It's BUSINESS TIME.

(I got my Conchords tickets.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:08am From: Chopaho

I've download a lot of them. Its just ashame that TV has turn into garbage over the years. You know what I mean.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:11am From: Cecile

I just want someone to started re-running old Bob Newharts, MTMs and Barney Millers...

Fri. 2/6/09 11:11am From: Hugo

A favourite from the W & W label:

http://www.winterandwinter.com/index.php?id=11

A musical travelogue of sorts.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:12am From: Parq

'Cile, one minute with Flight of the Conchords is like two minutes with any other humor-folk duo from New Zealand.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:12am From: Brian C.

As per Doug's suggestion, I had to dig around a while beofre unearthing "Whistlebait" -- but for those of you with less patience, you might want to check out http://hillbillycountry.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2009-01-29T06%3A56%3A00-08%3A00&max-results=7

Fri. 2/6/09 11:12am From: Cecile

Is that the Collins Kids song?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:14am From: texas scott

Re:whistle bait.Googleblog and it's still availiable second or third blog.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:14am From: Brian C.

Hi Cecile, "whistlebait" is by Larry Collins but there is "Hoy Hoy" with Larry & Lonnie

Fri. 2/6/09 11:15am From: Cecile

Parq, LOL!

Fri. 2/6/09 11:16am From: Chopaho

Name this classic theme song:

Sometimes the world looks perfect
Nothing can be arranged
Sometime just, Get a feeling like you need some kind of change
No matter what the odds are this time
Nothing gonna stand in my way
This flame in my heart
Of a long lost friend
Give dark street a light at the end.
Standing Tall
On the wings of my dreams
Rise and Fall
On the wings of my dreams
The rain, and thunder
The wind, and haze are bound for better days
Its my Life
MY Dream
Nothings gonna stop me now.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:17am From: Cecile

The A-Team? Gary Shandling's Show?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:17am From: Drummer Some

Maddy Priot alert! Maddy Prior alert! Maddy Priot alert!

Fri. 2/6/09 11:17am From: Carmichael

The Good Guys?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:18am From: Cecile

@Brian C - ahhhh, it's collected on that one COllins Kids comp that CBS put out a while back. That's the source of my confusion.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:18am From: Carmichael

Thanks Doug!! I'm all ears.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:18am From: texas scott

Perfect Strangers?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:19am From: Carmichael

The Span!

Fri. 2/6/09 11:19am From: Carmichael

This Old House?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:20am From: Chopaho

Texas Scott is right

Fri. 2/6/09 11:20am From: Cecile

YAYAYAYAYAYYAYAYAYAY!

I love the super rugged verseion on Please to See The king, too. I bought that one out of a cutout bin in 1997 - just wow.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:20am From: Carmichael

Hazel?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:21am From: texas scott

hooray for me!!

Fri. 2/6/09 11:21am From: Fishman

Doug, love your show, though I am permanently scarred by the Dottie West number, "Mommy, Can I Still Call Him Daddy?" Creepiest song I've ever heard.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:22am From: chris

does anyone remember the theme to Valerie's Place ? I remember it being really bad but I can't find a recording of it anywhere...

Fri. 2/6/09 11:22am From: Chopaho

Someone needs to do a whole 3 hour set of classic TV theme songs

Fri. 2/6/09 11:23am From: Hugo

That link did not work very well, did it? It's "Orient Express" on that list. And it does have a brass band!

Ah, classic Steeleye Span - that is a lovely album and so is the one that followed. They did not match those two later, imho ...

Fri. 2/6/09 11:23am From: Carmichael

Found a great video comp of Brirish folk-rock stuff like Fairport, Steeleye, Lindisfarne, Mostly Autumn, and others. It has some generic title like "British Folk Rock". Check it out if you can find it.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:23am From: jacob

I love the Planxty version of The Blacksmith, too.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:24am From: Brian Sanders

Just heard of Claude Jeters demise on Jan 6th. News travels slow it seems on this side of the Atlantic. He never went over to the secular side. Ref MP Cold showera for you Schulkind.

Fri. 2/6/09 11:24am From: Chopaho

Is it the same theme from Hogan's Famly

Fri. 2/6/09 11:26am From: chris

I think so. it had this part where it said "the laughter and the sadness... together through the years..." I remember I couldn't believe how chessey it was

Fri. 2/6/09 11:26am From: Carmichael

Also, June Tabor & Martin Carthy play a few songs on the Richard Thompson tribute album "Beat the Retreat". It's worth it just for that, although I really dig Syd Straw & Evan Dando doing "For Shame of Doing Wrong".

Fri. 2/6/09 11:27am From: Cecile

What is Syd Straw up to?
I remember her being great with that one version of the Golden Palominos...

Fri. 2/6/09 11:28am From: Carmichael

I have a feeling she does whatever the hell she wants to. I kinda like her for that ....

Fri. 2/6/09 11:29am From: Hugo

Speaking of the Steeleyes, I suppose, Doug, that you have to play (give the) female drummer (some) at one point or the other. Goes with the show, dunnit?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:32am From: Joe

Thanks for the Anne Briggs, Doug. If you had a crush on Maddy Prior, I was totally gone on Anne Briggs. Still am, I think!

Fri. 2/6/09 11:32am From: Chopaho

Show me that smile again
Don't waste another minute on your crying
We're nowhere near the end
The best is ready to begin
As long as we got each other
We got the world spinning right in our hands
Baby you and me
We gonna be
The luckiest dreams, Who ever could dream it
As long as we keep on giving
We can take anything that comes our way
Baby rain or shine
All the time
We got each other
Sharing the Laughter and Love

Fri. 2/6/09 11:32am From: Chopaho

Garrison's Guerillas?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:38am From: chris

who's the boss

Fri. 2/6/09 11:38am From: Chopaho

Wrong

Fri. 2/6/09 11:38am From: Carmichael

Dear John?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:39am From: Freddy

Is it Growing Pains?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:40am From: Chopaho

Freddy got it

Fri. 2/6/09 11:40am From: Carmichael

Mannix?

Fri. 2/6/09 11:41am From: Drummer Some

Are you kidding, Hugo? Female drummers are like Gods to me. Take Dame Evelyn Glennie, fer instance. Worship!!! (I am not worthy.)

Fri. 2/6/09 11:41am From: Cecile

Shelia E was the shit back in the day
