Greetings sir. Please some 'stop the wind & rain music' this Friday. This ofcourse is not the same as sunshine music! | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 8:55am
Drummer Some:

|
Fri. 2/4/11 8:59am
Drummer Some:
Hey LJfW, If we all pitch it, will that make it any easier? I'm not THAT busy. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:01am

Fri. 2/4/11 9:06am
listener james from westwood:
thanks, doug & brian! the good news is it's mostly done. the anxiety-producing news is, it's the first time i'm writing anything like this. the more critiquing it gets, the better the next one will be, tho. so if i need anything, it would be a bracing drink. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:06am
Tom:
Yowsah! It's still in the theme music and we've got comments galore. Allo all! | |

lisa from Brooklyn:
Hey Doug- hi to Jess and Lincoln. Got on at last, but music from my phone only! It's getting harder to get drummer some live at work- they must be blocking more. Don't they know you help me THINK!? | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:13am
Drummer Some:
Parishioners slide over. Brother Paul Sherratt has arrived at the pew. | |

Amen to that. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:22am
Drummer Some:
Next up is an AMAZING Ray Barretto record I just stumbled on for the first time: a 1966 album of James Bond soundtrack tunes called "Señor 007." How freaking cool is that? | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:23am
listener james from westwood:
very freakin' cool is what I say ... | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:25am
listener james from westwood:
that flute riff was from "thunderball," I think, if my connery-era bond knowledge hasn't decayed.... | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:26am
Drummer Some:
You are CORRECT sir! | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:30am
listener james from westwood:
ahhhhh, my parents raised me right (on a diet of soundtracks!). gracias! | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:31am
lisa from Brooklyn:
Merrily crunchy. Not to speak of the weather. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:37am
Drummer Some:
I miss the crunch of Brooklyn.I'm still pissed about not being there for the tornado last October. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:41am
Tom:
That tornado was the most bizarre weather I've witnessed since living in NYC. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:43am
Drummer Some:
Tom, OK, now you're just rubbing it in. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:46am
Tom:
Hahah! No really, not my intention ... but I'm telling you, the sky turned 8 different shades and there was an end of the world feel in the air ... ok, now I'm rubbing it in! | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:49am
Drummer Some:
Curse you Tom. Nothing makes me miss "home" like extreme weather. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 9:50am
Tom:
Will Drummer Some be partaking in the Burg's Super Bowl festivities this weekend? | |

Fri. 2/4/11 10:09am

Well, it's strictly past work hours over here, but a good start to the weekend to hang in there for a few hours more; quiet inside, raining outside, no snow at all. | |
|

marcury:
Hey, Nixon in China premiered at the Met Weds night. It's these "little" things I miss the most about the city. | |

For my wife Jessie's birthday, I am taking her back to NYC to see Nixon in China! She, of course, saw the original. | |

The Bowie/Wilson duet is excellent, but I'm not sure if it's still available. I have the old vinyl of that one. Get it if you can ... | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 10:55am
still b/p:
This reminds me of one of the Garifuna tracks I bought after hearing the music on FMU. I would like chicken stewed in (mildly) spiced orange sauce for lunch! With grilled flatbread. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 10:58am
Drummer Some:
Love the Garifuna stuff, still b/p, LOVE it. Hugo, my old vinyl copy of the Bowie/Wilson is too scratchy to play. I actually found an actual CD release of it a few years back. (Pressed by some outfit in Milano.) This isn't where I bought it, but you can check this out: http://tinyurl.com/4dc4wep | |

Tom:
Drummer - i came back late ... what is the soccer record? | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 11:13am
Drummer Some:
Tom, I was talking about a record I'll be adding to the web stream this week. It is by Sukafunk of Africa and it's called "Viva Rangers." Here it is: http://tinyurl.com/4pmzqbu | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 11:16am
Carmichael:
Doug, you surely know of Jorge Ben's classic "Umbabarauma (Homem Gol)"? The best soccer song I know of. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 11:17am
Tom:
Holy moly Drummer Some, that looks amazing. Thanks. And to bring this full circle, one of the best songs ever written about the sport is the Real Sounds "TORNADOS vs Dynamos"!! | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 11:18am
Hugo:
Funny you should mention Wuppertal. I have an amateur recording of the Art Ensemble of Chicago playing in a church in Wuppertal in 1995. The most amazing acoustics, akin to the Grace Cathedral in San Francisco. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 11:21am
Tom:
Stack Waddy! | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 11:23am

Carmichael, Charlie Lewis just played Umbabarauma on his show yesterday! Back during the world cup, I did a show with a set dedicated to soccer songs, including that Tornados vs. Dynamos: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/36119 | |

Wow, good man, that Charlie! | |

mark:
Great show! btw Ambitious Lovers (John Zorn/Peter Scherer) did a decent cover of Umbabarauma. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 11:30am
Drummer Some:
I think it is a chemical impossibility to do a bad cover of Umbabarauma. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 11:31am
mark:
oops! I meant Arto Lindsay not Zorn. I have Zorn on my brain today. | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 11:32am

very decent cover of my coloring book - skeeter davis | |
|
Fri. 2/4/11 11:34am

Yes, Leigh, yes! Also Aretha Franklin, Dusty Springfield and even Barbra Streisand. | |

Fri. 2/4/11 11:37am

Great hearing Stack Waddy. Classic UK garage rock, though largely forgotten ... When might we hear Third World War? Also early 70s. | |
