	8:02pm doctorjazz: HI David! Stork did a Denny Zeitlin birthday broadcast-great to hear some more! www.wfmu.org...
	8:03pm Observations: Hi drjazz - yes! I listened to it; lots more stuff that I didn't have time for this week.
	8:15pm WR: I missed his 1973 foray into electronic keyboards and had long thought of him only as "straight ahead" jazz player. Have greatly enjoyed hearing his other explorations and expeditions.
	8:27pm doctorjazz: I also thought of him in a standard jazz piano vein.
	8:28pm Dean: Just now preoccupied, I will take in this show on the archive. Long time admirer of Zeitlin's many facets.
	8:30pm Observations: he's lived a very full life, he's gone back to totally free improv lately, which is awesome for an 84 year old! lol
	8:32pm WR: But what did mom serve for the Sunday dinner?
	8:39pm PaulRobeson1922: Hi Hi Hi
	8:43pm WR: Totally wackvthat Columbia wasn't will to record/ release his exploratory material. What the hell, Miles and Weather Report were on Columbia.
	8:59pm Dean: Just realized that I had the good fortune of finding this Expansion LP several years ago.
	9:00pm Dean: The label resided just north a few blocks of the UC Berkeley campus. It's now a very active new music venue and lab.
	9:01pm Dean: The label of the reissue being 1750 Arch.
	9:09pm Observations: Great label!
	9:14pm Dean: Absolutely. Buckner performed a recital there a few years ago. Was a pleasure meeting him.
	9:20pm northguineahills: I recognized the Sesame Street number from the first note....
	9:29pm Observations: "It was too far out." Denny Zeitlin indeed! lol
	9:47pm WR: Great hearing his enthusiasm.
	9:52pm northguineahills: nice interview!
	9:53pm WR: Thank you for sharing the interview with us on WFMU. Have greatly enjoyed the whole episode. At 84, does he still have active psychiatry practice?
	9:54pm Observations: Yes, he's still an active psychoanalyst
	9:59pm WR: For some reason my mind keeps contrasting what they did on these sessions with what Soft Machine was doing.
	10:00pm northguineahills: I can hear that, WR....
	10:01pm WR: Again, many thank yous, David.
	10:02pm WR: It's Kris's wife birthday, I think. They were going to dinner before he did his show. Guess a bit late getting back. Or whatever.
