Listener comments!
	9:59pm Willie Nelson Stan: Oh Boy!
	10:00pm headcleaner: let's ride this beast
	10:03pm Willie Nelson Stan: Surf Klezmer
	10:04pm Sam Segal: Willie Nelson Stan! Headcleaner! I hope you're ready for a Radically Jewish Episode of If You Lose Your Horse. Tonight, we celebrate the musical universe of John Zorn. Specifically, his Book of Angels releases from the 2000s-2010s.
	10:05pm NFL Longsnapper: Hello all! Apologies for missing the last few weeks. Signed up for a yoga retreat that was actually a yogurt retreat, and have been stuck in a vat of Yoplait.
	🥁 10:06pm WR: Major change in approach for you to put Zorn pic on the playlist page. listening as i wrap up work paperwork.
	10:06pm Sam Segal: Not to worry, NFL. Your absences are always excused. I received a note from your Doctor of Osteopathy.
	10:08pm Ike: I prefer vats of Cabot yogurt, but... let's see... curds and whey... something something Curd Duca? I don't know.
	10:10pm Pie: Hey
	10:11pm NFL Longsnapper: @Pie Welcome! I had a slice with my curds and whey before staring my intermittent fast.
	10:12pm Pie: hell who isn't?
	10:14pm Pie: That's nice and hope your fast goes well. I know fasting throughout the night helped me beat my night time snacking habit. Heck I still like to have a snack, but now I don't feel like I need it.
	10:15pm Sam Segal: @WR, for some reason my usual assortment of EPA images from the '70s didn't feel right with this theme. Glad you are here!
	10:16pm Sam Segal: You're on to something with that Cabot yogurt bit, Ike! Stick with it!
	10:18pm Sam Segal: Glad to hear the night time snacks continue on an occasional basis, Pie. Welcome!
	10:19pm Pie: It's good to be home.
	10:24pm Pie: Ya know, through it all, who this sounds like? Shpongle. Now shh. Shpongle.
	10:26pm Sam Segal: Shpongle! Haven't thought of that band in a long time. We should connect with John Zorn.
	10:27pm Pie: Yeah I agree. I haven't seen them in years. Maybe even invite CHAZ.
	10:29pm Pie: Look autonomous zones aside, for as much of a poo bear as I like to be, I still have work to do and my role to play.
	10:29pm NFL Longsnapper: ZoЯn did "Freak on a Leash" if I'm not mistaken.
	10:29pm NFL Longsnapper: Couldn't have that in the CHAZ. The strictures, the hegemony.
	10:29pm Pie: Yeah, I'll be honest I don't know a John Zorn. Yet. yet.
	10:30pm Pie: I'm one google away from being a new man.
	10:31pm Sam Segal: Hahaha, @NFL, someone should start a Jewish Nu Metal group called ZoЯn.
	10:33pm Pie: Ha, that'd be a backwards way of representing Korn. Ha, but I could hash it out. Oh, believe me I could hash it out. Couldn't hold NuCypher though. Sold the dump. Nu-uh, cart before the horse son. Horse poetry for? What is, horse walls? Correct.
	10:34pm rw: h e l l o
	10:34pm Sam Segal: Pleasure to see your initials this evening, RW.
	10:35pm rw: Thanks, man. Nice to be here. Thank you for hosting.
	10:35pm Pie: Lord, I wonder if/when I'll change my ways? It looks like the kids worked things out and rode off into the sunset. Kid rock. As it were?
	10:38pm Sam Segal: Kid Rock. There's another guy I'd like to see collaborate with Zorn.
	10:38pm NFL Longsnapper: @Sam I have always been fond of sludge klezmer and post-Ladino.
	10:39pm rw: I always wanted a John Zorn, Eddie Van Halen collaboration.
	10:39pm Pie: Yeah Kid Rock has been getting very politically charged and I just wish he'd get back to his roots. Whatever those are.
	10:40pm Pie: He had an eclectic upbringing on Lake Michigan..
	10:40pm Sam Segal: @NFL, what until you hear the Yiddish Prog I've got on tap.
	10:41pm Sam Segal: Haha, @RW, speaking of which...I think Zorn & Marc Ribot comes close to that here.
	10:41pm Pie: #Makingmusicthatwillrunfor1000years
	10:41pm rw: Yes! Exactly!
	10:42pm rw: Would have been fucking amazing.
	10:43pm NFL Longsnapper: Now That's What I Call The Oral Tradition! Volume 5781
	10:43pm Little Danny: Hey Sam, hey errbody.
	10:43pm Pie: Silence- the oral tradition with legs.
	10:44pm Sam Segal: Welcome, Little Danny!
	10:45pm Pie: errol is a courtly name. Like british but fancy, idk. Errol.
	10:45pm Sam Segal: Nice to know Metheny could still fully shred in 2013.
	10:46pm Little Danny: Great show theme!
	10:46pm Pie: Pat Metheny is back!
	10:46pm Sam Segal: Thanks, LD! Felt like going down a Zorn hole. Glad you all could come with me.
	10:47pm rw: Long as you don't go down a Korn hole next week.
	10:49pm Pie: Or maybe do..?
	10:49pm Sam Segal: Not to worry, RW. Rage Against the Machine is about as far as I go when it comes to Nu Metal.
	10:50pm Pie: Okay so not NuCypher? The data backed mining blockchain producing data driven results about concrete information important to your investing in blockchain?
	10:53pm Pie: If anyone needs any chewing gum, I've got a few pieces of nicotine gum left. Its not Chewleys but.. it'll do ; )
	10:56pm Pie: Ya know, I think I've been in a few classes at Yale that were talking about some new data driven texts or something? I'm not sure. You were there but, point being I was hearing that
	10:58pm Pie: Book > Pipe any day...
	11:01pm Sam Segal: Thank you for bringing enough nicotine gum for everybody, Pie! Very considerate of you.
	11:03pm Pie: Yes I learned that lesson in second grade. I didn't bring enough birthday invitations or patience for birthday parties for the entire class and was warned of classroom policy. No more birthday parties for this guy ;)
	11:03pm Sam Segal: The policy was that you had to invite everyone in the class to your party?
	11:04pm Pie: First let me say this is not the policies problem or fault.
	11:06pm Sam Segal: But of course. Wouldn't want to get you in trouble with the teacher by disparaging the policy.
	11:06pm Little Danny: Oh man I don't think I'd appreciated how many volumes there were in this series. I assumed it was like vols. 1-10, or something.
	11:06pm Pie: The policy was that invitations were to handed out outside of the classroom setting so as to not hurt any excluded parties feelings. I've been there.. regardless, The invitiations and pressure was too much.
	11:08pm Pie: Things got out of hand a mess was made. multiple times. And I was forced to retire from the formal scene and move into the underground scene of biking the neighborhoods., Then jr high. you know the rest. "Good kids gone bad: high school baseball tryouts editions"
	11:10pm coelacanth∅: hello Sam and others
	11:10pm Sam Segal: @LD, they need a word stronger than prolific to describe Zorn's output. I think the Book of Angels series is up to 32 volumes. Maybe more.
	11:10pm chresti: Hi Sam and company!
	11:11pm Sam Segal: Chresti and Coel! Make yourselves at home.
	11:11pm Pie: Coel and Chresti in the house, but black and white silent movie edition because I work in the morning
	11:12pm chresti: Hi Pie
	11:13pm Little Danny: Hi hi chresti!
	11:14pm Little Danny: And coela!
	11:15pm Sam Segal: @Pie, I wonder if this invitation issue persists in the modern age. I bet parents these days just send out emails. We'll have to ask your second grade teacher.
	11:15pm coelacanth∅: hi Pie and Danny!
	11:17pm Pie: Yeah I would think, ya know I wouldn't honestly know. With how far removed I am or feel from the world of parenting, who knows! Hopefully the kids get cake though and to have inflatable toy fights
	11:18pm Sam Segal: I believe this song is the first time tonight we've actually heard Zorn playing his saxophone.
	11:21pm Pie: Monetary requiems
	11:22pm Little Danny: This is lovely.
	11:23pm Sam Segal: I think this is one of my favorite albums in the series.
	11:23pm Pie: Situational games. to cut to the chase- Jazz.
	11:24pm rw: Sam, I wasn't paying too close attention, but I WAS sort of thinking there was a lack of sax.
	11:26pm rw: And the Masada Quintet DID sound particularly nice. And hey! coelacanth and chresti are here!
	11:26pm Sam Segal: I don't know why, but I feel like Zorn doesn't work with many other saxophonists in the recordings in this series. And he himself barely plays on any of them.
	11:27pm doctorjazz: Wow, it's a Zorn-a-thon, sorry I missed it. Definitely my morning listening tomorrow!
	11:27pm rw: Hi doc!
	11:28pm Sam Segal: Doc! Glad you made it for the end. Baruch Hashem for the archives.
	11:28pm doctorjazz: He doesn't play as much as he used to v seems to me, more interested in composer/producer activities.
	11:29pm Pie: goodnight sweet ones. I must be going, but I hope to return. Again and again.
	11:29pm doctorjazz: Baruch Hashem indeed!
	11:31pm Sam Segal: Sleep well, Pie!
	11:31pm rw: 'Night Pie. Pleasant dreams.
	11:32pm rw: I'm liking the quieter stuff. Am I getting old?
	11:33pm Sam Segal: Either you're getting old, or you're getting tired. Maybe both.
	11:33pm doctorjazz: I have this box set I believe, great stuff!
	11:34pm rw: Thanks sam.
	11:34pm coelacanth∅: hi rw hi dr.j!
	11:35pm doctorjazz: Are least I have one recent box, The Book Beriah, that's the one.
	🥁 11:35pm WR: that Halvorson selection is wonderful.
	11:38pm doctorjazz: So this is coming out soon, nice! I did misshearing Zorn play on many of the tracks. One of my greatest concert experiences was seeing the original Masada Quartet with Dave Douglas are the old Knitting Factory.
	🥁 11:39pm WR: rw, it's all good. There is a time for each of the levels of volume.
	11:40pm Sam Segal: More incredible playing from Marc Ribot on this tune.
	11:41pm Sam Segal: Agreed on the Halvorson piece, WR. Nice that Zorn ended the series with such a great group.
	11:41pm Little Danny: Aye yeah this too is so nice 'n' atmospheric.
	11:42pm Sam Segal: This group should score a Yiddish film noir.
	11:43pm Little Danny: @Sam: Random-ish question. Have you heard Dizzy Gillespie's Portrait of Jenny LP? Similar sorta loose, moody vibe.
	11:44pm Sam Segal: I have not heard that one, LD. Will definitely have to check it out now.
	11:45pm Little Danny: I recommend it all the time, Sam. Totally underrated (and cheap in original LP format), too.
	11:47pm Sam Segal: I don't think I've heard any Dizzy recordings from that late into his career actually. Now I'm really curious.
	11:48pm Little Danny: I'll email you a link! Uncharacteristic mellowness from Dizzy. And kind of a stoned vibe
	🥁 11:48pm WR: Wow, just wow, so beautiful, the string trio...
	11:50pm Sam Segal: Thanks, LD! Can't wait to hear it.
	🥁 11:52pm WR: Me too LD please?
	11:52pm Sam Segal: Yes, the Masada String Trio was my introduction to the Book of Angels series. I cherish their recordings. Got to see them live at a festival for Zorn's 60th birthday at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. Zorn sat on the floor in front of them conducting.
	11:54pm Little Danny: WR, here's a link for your future perusal: www.youtube.com... The Bar Kokhba track Sam played reminded me of it.
	11:54pm doctorjazz: The String Trio material I've heard is lovely.
	🥁 11:55pm WR: Saw similar performance in NY 2002 or 2003 or so. Zorn sitting at the front edge of the stage. Thank you LD!
	11:56pm doctorjazz: This Mycale is really cool!
	11:58pm doctorjazz: Saw Zorn conduct a show long ago, 2 guitars and a reader, reading Korean column like Dear Abby, and then Japanese news.
	12:01am doctorjazz: Such a crew of musicians on all of these (big Url Caine fan, don't hear that much from him these days)
	12:02am Sam Segal: Saw Uri Caine at one of Zorn's big group improv sessions at the Stone a few years ago. But I haven't heard a new recording from him in a little while either.
	12:03am doctorjazz: It's a Shondeh that I missed most of the show.
	12:03am Little Danny: Thanks Sam!
	12:05am coelacanth∅: Thanks Sam
	12:05am rw: Thank you Sam! Nice one. Have a good evening everyone!
	🥁 12:06am WR: Book of Angels marathon, more like a highlights sampler! Ha. Thanks so much. Sam. Laters all.
	12:06am chresti: Thanks Sam!
	5:17pm Doug Schulkind: What an amazing show this was (is).

	11:35pm doctorjazz: Are least I have one recent box, The Book Beriah, that's the one.
	🥁 11:35pm WR: that Halvorson selection is wonderful.
	11:38pm doctorjazz: So this is coming out soon, nice! I did misshearing Zorn play on many of the tracks. One of my greatest concert experiences was seeing the original Masada Quartet with Dave Douglas are the old Knitting Factory.
	🥁 11:39pm WR: rw, it's all good. There is a time for each of the levels of volume.
	11:40pm Sam Segal: More incredible playing from Marc Ribot on this tune.
	11:41pm Sam Segal: Agreed on the Halvorson piece, WR. Nice that Zorn ended the series with such a great group.
	11:41pm Little Danny: Aye yeah this too is so nice 'n' atmospheric.
	11:42pm Sam Segal: This group should score a Yiddish film noir.
	11:43pm Little Danny: @Sam: Random-ish question. Have you heard Dizzy Gillespie's Portrait of Jenny LP? Similar sorta loose, moody vibe.
	11:44pm Sam Segal: I have not heard that one, LD. Will definitely have to check it out now.
	11:45pm Little Danny: I recommend it all the time, Sam. Totally underrated (and cheap in original LP format), too.
	11:47pm Sam Segal: I don't think I've heard any Dizzy recordings from that late into his career actually. Now I'm really curious.
	11:48pm Little Danny: I'll email you a link! Uncharacteristic mellowness from Dizzy. And kind of a stoned vibe
	🥁 11:48pm WR: Wow, just wow, so beautiful, the string trio...
	11:50pm Sam Segal: Thanks, LD! Can't wait to hear it.
	🥁 11:52pm WR: Me too LD please?
	11:52pm Sam Segal: Yes, the Masada String Trio was my introduction to the Book of Angels series. I cherish their recordings. Got to see them live at a festival for Zorn's 60th birthday at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. Zorn sat on the floor in front of them conducting.
	11:54pm Little Danny: WR, here's a link for your future perusal: www.youtube.com... The Bar Kokhba track Sam played reminded me of it.
	11:54pm doctorjazz: The String Trio material I've heard is lovely.
	🥁 11:55pm WR: Saw similar performance in NY 2002 or 2003 or so. Zorn sitting at the front edge of the stage. Thank you LD!
	11:56pm doctorjazz: This Mycale is really cool!
	11:58pm doctorjazz: Saw Zorn conduct a show long ago, 2 guitars and a reader, reading Korean column like Dear Abby, and then Japanese news.
	12:01am doctorjazz: Such a crew of musicians on all of these (big Url Caine fan, don't hear that much from him these days)
	12:02am Sam Segal: Saw Uri Caine at one of Zorn's big group improv sessions at the Stone a few years ago. But I haven't heard a new recording from him in a little while either.
	12:03am doctorjazz: It's a Shondeh that I missed most of the show.
	12:03am Little Danny: Thanks Sam!
	12:05am coelacanth∅: Thanks Sam
	12:05am rw: Thank you Sam! Nice one. Have a good evening everyone!
	🥁 12:06am WR: Book of Angels marathon, more like a highlights sampler! Ha. Thanks so much. Sam. Laters all.
	12:06am chresti: Thanks Sam!
	5:17pm Doug Schulkind: What an amazing show this was (is).
