Parq, Parq... I've have expected you or someone else to quickly throw a "Cally Fifty Four, Where Are You?" in here. The only thing keeping me from crippling depression for missing something called Dreamers Cha Cha Cha from an album called Hot Chas Chas...is that it's still early in the show and many remedies will come. | |

BodegaMan:
I have a bunch of Numero releases, including the first Good God! collection. they do put out some great works. As of late, I feel like it's a bit of lazy man's record collecting. As in, the feeling of discovery through Numero isn't as exciting. So I've avoided them in the past year. any other thoughts on Numero? I say that but I fully expect to get the Syl Johnson box when the time is right. | |

I like the heading of this show, though I suspect the third word is best pronounced in a sober state. | |

mr drummer; i'm not close enough to wallkill for his easy commute. the chef we have is pretty snazzy... his cooking is nice, very nice. his wings are to die for... he hails from louisiana and other places southward, so we are assured of some pretty spicy dishes. we are closer to the susquehanna river, and the farm is right on the delaware. | |

Brian in UK:
I've never been a fan of electric guitar played by white boys, so how does it sound like a different instrument when in African hands? It's something I have pondered for many years. Waste of time really. Just enjoy. | |

Doug was that band name that you like "Bougies"? It means "spark plugs" in French. At least according to the AC Delco spark plug boxes that I purchase by the crate. | |

listening quietly at work since gospel set. unable to comment til now. Going to catch that film about Kalaparusha this weekend. There are a lot of bad cats busking all over nyc. There's a Joe Henderson look-alike in the corridor of the A train at 175th street that kills every time. The African set was sublime. And I can listen to that Movers groove all day long! | |
