:hi:

[billyskank]

1. "Dolphin Dance" by Herbie Hancock

And please accept a :hug:

[progmom]

5. oooh - nice one - i can do that!

:hug: back atcha!!

[immoderate]

2. HI PROGMOM!

Wow! A free Saturday. How 'ya been?

--IMM

[progmom]

6. IMMODERATE!!

:loveya: nice to see you!!!

[immoderate]

26. And it's good to be "seen."

Especially by you.:loveya:

Monk and Coltrane -- my spiritual leaders. Thanks!

OK, here's a toughie -- "Clark in the Dark" from the Mingus Town Hall Concert. Features CT who is one of my special favorites. If you can't find that, (and who can?) "Black and Tan Fantasy" w/ Clark by Duke. Or maybe some Terry/Brookmeyer, like "Step Right Up" from the "Tonight" album.

And some you're more likely to find:

Stan Kenton from the Cuban Fire album. (Unless you have the "Kenton Plays Wagner" album, from which the "Flight of the Valkyries" always brings a smile.

Dorothy Donegan, most under appreciated of the Tatum heirs. By the way, it was good to hear some King Cole piano.

Or, whatever you like, which is usually what I like.

[billyskank]

25. This ROCKS!

:bounce:
I love funk!

[madinmaryland]

27. Thanks for the Link!!!!

:hi:

[faithnotgreed]

28. joe henderson

blue bossa

or how about
dave brubeck
blue rondo a la turk

hi progmom
cant believe i am up in time to catch you on the radio
how fun (and a great way to learn)

on edit:
jean luc ponty - mirage

for variety (and its funky) though maybe too much rock in your jazz

[GOPisEvil]

33. Hi there.

:hi: How are things?

[faithnotgreed]

35. well good morning

things are pretty groovy actually

this is a great opportunity for me to listen to my itunes jazz collection then listen in to progmom and get schooled

how about you

[GOPisEvil]

36. Things are ok here.

I use these Saturday mornings to see my friends, groove and learn some things. I always end up at iTunes or the record store afterward.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

37. Check this out in LBN if you haven't already

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=102&topic_id=1836743&mesg_id=1836743

[GOPisEvil]

40. I did read that...that's the agency I worked for until recently.

:7

I resigned via e-mail, too, so what's good for the goose is good for the gander. :bounce:

[faithnotgreed]

38. well since i clearly have so much to learn

then this is a great crash course

as you may recall from hawk n dove i know nothing really about jazz
progmom is giving a very kind assist and teaching me some good stuff

i know that i love the whole percussion horn thing
but also the torch song

any suggestions

david axelrod and nina simone are a couple examples

[GOPisEvil]

43. Eeep...I'm not much for suggestions.

I'm more into the combo stuff, trios, quartets and the like. My current favorite is Watts at Scott's, the Charlie Watts Tentet recorded live. I have much to learn myself.

[faithnotgreed]

48. well how about

we be independent together

and i requested a dave brubeck quartet piece
but aside from what i have here on itunes i am lost so we can do that together too

its been raining here for about 24 hours straight so this is a perfect day to listen

[GOPisEvil]

49. It's beautiful here.

Sunny, and it's finally cooled off. Sunny and a high of 76. I might have to get out and enjoy that - take a walk or something.

But I like the idea of learning together. I tend to be too focused on one area, and I ignore others. That's why this show is good for me. I'm exposed to a lot more.

[faithnotgreed]

56. as much as i love talking to you

and i do

if you are able to then please do make sure to get out on a day like this
76 and sunny is too good to stay inside
though i know its only noon there (assuming you arent in the mountain zone of texas)

see
i listen real good and remember your texas geography lesson

whatever you decide i hope you will have a fantastic day
you are starting it off in a great way

hey she just mentioned teena
where is your request

[GOPisEvil]

57. I didn't have a request today.

I'm just sitting back and learning.

Good for you, on the Texas Geography.

I'm recovering from being up late last night. I'll get up and moving after I eat some lunch. The chicken breast is marinating now. I'll cook it up after the show ends. Then, I'm out to enjoy this lovely day.

[faithnotgreed]

60. oh yeah

i remember you and teena discussing cooking
i bet it will be great

yesterday i saw your thread about red pepper hummus and i wanted to chime in but i wasnt signed in and couldnt find my password so i couldnt post
but i will now

i love hummus and have garlic hummus and pita all the time (though i dont make it but there is this place across the street called health bar)

is this off-beat song thats playing right now skipping or is this the way it is...
on edit - just kidding about the skipping

on edit edit - guess i wasnt kidding about skipping
now that the guys voice went that way then i get it now
must be my connection

hope you had fun last night

[GOPisEvil]

61. That hummus is really yummy.

I still have a lot leftover. I ate some last night after getting back home. The evening was fun, but I was out with a large group of people who knew each other well. I only knew one person. So, it got boring at times, but it was good to be out of the house.

I'm marinating the chicken breast in vodka and lime juice, as well as seasonings. I'm out of tequila, or I'd have used that.

Hummus is really easy to make if you have a food processor.

I do like this tune. I'm bopping along to it while I sit here.

[faithnotgreed]

84. not in our name

is playing right now
wow

my connection continues to skip so i didnt catch who plays this
did you

youre so sweet david
i started to write this longish thing about how great you are and if you were more to yourself last night i wondered if it was because you werent very into it last night
or
if you tend to be a bit shy

i can see either way
you dont have to share any of that with me of course.....

[GOPisEvil]

88. I tend to be quite shy.

Especially around people I don't know well. Once I know someone, I tend to open up more.

You're making me blush. You're being very sweet, too.

By the way, this H2OGate blues is an AWESOME piece.

[faithnotgreed]

91. isnt it

i just posted a little thing about it

how bizarre it is to have history literally repeat itself

i was watching an "all in the family" episode and that was so strange it was funny
then i heard "you havent done nothin" by stevie wonder and its just bizarre

yeah
this piece is mind blowingly good

[GOPisEvil]

93. Amazing that history has repeated just in my lifetime.

You would have thought we'd have learned our lessons, but greed always seems to triumph over reason.

[progmom]

45. blue bossa is perfect!!!

:woohoo:

I love Joe Henderson.

I picked him up from the airport once. He's an interesting guy. Or was, rather. :D

[faithnotgreed]

50. my o my

you do get around (and i mean that in only the best sense)
thats nifty about picking him up from the airport
did you get to chat a bit


thanks progmom
i am glad you like my joe henderson choice
see what a great teacher you are

(listening intently with a big smile)

plus its been raining for 24 hours straight and more on the way so its a perfect day to enjoy your program

thanks again..... this is great fun for me

[progmom]

55. yay!!

we did chat for a bit...once he decided i was worthy. long story. :D

[faithnotgreed]

59. i just heard your mention of teena - neat

and you know i have to hear that story about joe henderson but i will let you save that for (another) rainy day

[misanthrope]

75. Ever notice...

...the technical similarities in chord structure and melody between "Blue Bossa" and "More?"

[sakabatou]

30. "Too Good Too Bad" by the Seatbelts

[RandomKoolzip]

32. Here's a few I'd like to hear:

Ellery Eskelin: "43 RPM"
Peter Brotzmann: "machine gun"
John Coltrane: "My Favorite Things" from "Live! At the Village Vanguard Again," 1966

[billyskank]

34. I can never show my face around here again!

I actually meant Driftin' !

:blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush:
:dunce: :dunce: :dunce: :dunce: :dunce: :dunce: :dunce: :dunce:

Never mind; thanks progmom! :loveya:

[progmom]

44. no troubles...

we'll get it right next time. :loveya:

[RandomKoolzip]

46. How about "Indiana" by the Eddie Condon Quartet?

Since it seems there's a lot of older stuff being played today...

[progmom]

71. dammit...

i swear...it's nothing personal... :( it's just that i had that set all planned out.

[immoderate]

47. Pensativa -- the Clare Fisher tune.

By anybody.

Ah! Louis Prima's greatest hit, "Sing, Sing, Sing." A classic swing set, PM. (Cup running over.)

[progmom]

64. hmmmmmm

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

65. no worries..I just love the reaction of DU'ers when they hear it

[progmom]

80. it's up next

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

82. I'm loving this piece...gonna have to get this disc

with the flute

[ps1074]

73. That's my request

Sweet Honey Bee

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

70. "Free For All," Art Blakey

Wayne Shorter wrote it.

[progmom]

81. that would be a nice way to end the show....

let me see if it is the right length to get me up to the news.

[misanthrope]

83. If so, thanks...

...I'm jealous. I used to have a jazz show and it's fun playing the music you love for other people.

[billyskank]

72. This song rocks too!

:bounce:

[GrpCaptMandrake]

76. Pat Matheny "First Circle"

[faithnotgreed]

87. oh i am DOWN with this progmom

watergate blues

who does this (my connection keeps cutting out - thanks dial up)

cant help but keep thinking when i hear and see things from the 70s (all in the family or "you havent done nothin" by stevie wonder etc)
that this is all deja vu

and we know that of course but it doesnt make it less bizarre to re live

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

89. Gil Scott-Heron

[faithnotgreed]

94. thank you kindly

did you see my hello to you upstairs

well since youre here then
