12:01pm doctorjazz:

12:02pm Doug Schulkind:

What's up, doc?!

🥁

12:02pm Brian in UK:

Who was that masked bloke from Stoke, I'd like to shake his hand.
What-ho, Doug.

🥁

12:02pm doctorjazz:

Kwazy Wabbit!!!!!

🥁

12:03pm duke:

Happy black friday drummers

12:04pm Doug Schulkind:

Howdy howdy, Brian in UK and duke!

🥁

12:07pm Brian in UK:

Over 70 million people on the island of Java alone.

12:07pm David D:

Looking forward to some musics!

12:09pm Doug Schulkind:

If I may paraphrase Duke Ellington: Musics is my mistress.

🥁

12:09pm Brian in UK:

Funny how many times Sunda becomes Sudan through lack of concentration.

12:10pm Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
I will ask my intern to type carefully.

🥁

12:11pm Brian in UK:

Doug, guessing these are from around Bandung. There is such a lightness of touch.

12:12pm SeanG:

Hola Doug! loving the drummer stream

12:13pm sinner:

Mr. Sherratt! I was thinking about you the other day. Very nice to hear from you.

12:13pm ndbob:

heya Doug - I'm here but will catch up with the listening a little later

12:13pm George from Bristol UK:

Now tuned in after a while away.

12:14pm Doug Schulkind:

So glad, SeanG!

Greetings, sinner, ndbob & George from Bristol!

12:15pm Doug Schulkind:

This Aan Darwati cassette was shared by the estimable Henk at his blog Madrotter Treasure Hunt: madrotter-treasure-hunt.blogspot.com...

12:19pm Doug Schulkind:

Hey friends, this show ain't Kidung around. Wait, yes it is!

12:20pm sinner:

Love the blog tips.

12:21pm Doug Schulkind:

@sinner
I usually braise my blog tips first, then sautée them in peanut oil.

12:22pm sinner:

schucculents. yummy.

🥁

12:22pm Brian in UK:

Some say that peanut oil and groundnut oil are the same. I would beg to differ.

12:23pm Doug Schulkind:

Nut grinding is a phrase I hope to hear with infrequency.

🥁

12:23pm Brian in UK:

Doug but you are the braisen one.

12:28pm Doug Schulkind:

The heart-in-your-throat sounds of jegog! There is only one place in the world, an island in the Indonesian archipelago, that produces bamboo massive enough for the instruments in the jegog ensemble. Wow wow wow!

12:29pm Gary:

*scanning the comments for all previously used puns*

12:29pm David D:

Just follow the punnut trail.

🥁

12:31pm doctorjazz:

Pretty crazy sounds!

12:32pm Doug Schulkind:

Nature abhors a vacuum, but it adores a good toaster.

🥁

12:32pm doctorjazz:

The whole thread has gone Agong.

12:33pm Doug Schulkind:

Check out these jegog players: blogfiles.wfmu.org...

🥁

12:35pm Brian in UK:

My wife went to Indonesia on holiday.
Jakarta?
No, she went by boat.

12:41pm sinner:

"roy moore loves the little children / All the little children of the World..."

🥁

12:42pm doctorjazz:

Too creepy...

12:44pm Alex In Illinois:

Hello.

12:44pm JtotheK:

Hi Doug, hi everyone!

12:46pm Marie:

Hi everybody! Hey, the virgin mary was a teen, right? I mean, right?

12:47pm Doug Schulkind:

So pleased you're here Alex in Illinois, JtotheK and Marie!

12:48pm sinner:

Absolutely Sweet Marie.

🥁

12:48pm doctorjazz:

That seems to be Moore's excuse/justification, @Marie.

12:49pm Marie:

yeah, some of these bible thumpers seem to always find what they need to justify anything in the bible (sigh....)

12:51pm Doug Schulkind:

No little girls were physically harmed during the production of this set. (Psychologically is another story.)

🥁

12:51pm Brian in UK:

@Marie same with the Koran, no mention of women covering themselves up in it. Men still have the upper hand.

12:51pm Alex In Illinois:

Does anyone remember David Koresh?

12:52pm Doug Schulkind:

Who could forget him?!

🥁

12:54pm Brian in UK:

I still have a fear of eating apples.

12:54pm Marie:

Yeah, I think it is all about control. Evoluntionary psychology (some theorists) beleive all of that derives from the essential uncertainty of paternity (without genetic testing) and the relatively low number of eggs (compared to sperm) that women produce

12:55pm notsinner:

He koreshed and burned.

12:55pm Marie:

Evolutionary not evoluntionary! :>)

🥁

12:57pm Brian in UK:

In lieu of nothing, Spencer our beagle is sooo close to the radiator he is going to have to marry it.

12:58pm Doug Schulkind:

Van Morrison cover here by Duffy.

1:02pm Doug Schulkind:

A warm dog is a happy dog, Brian.

🥁

1:07pm Brian in UK:

The Rustem Pasha mosque is a thing of wonder.

1:18pm hyde:

hello!

1:19pm Doug Schulkind:

Where've you been hydeing?!

1:19pm hyde:

under a rock

1:19pm Doug Schulkind:

I love the tenor sax-bass-bass-cello lineup on this number.

1:23pm Doug Schulkind:

You rock, hyde.

🥁

1:29pm doctorjazz:

Loving the Jazz Set!!!!!

🥁

1:30pm doctorjazz:

(good for household chores, got the garage under control).

1:31pm Doug Schulkind:

You're not called doctorjazz for nothing! (It fits you way better than doctorgarbage.)

1:34pm hyde:

love this record

1:40pm Sem Chumbo:

Along for the rest of the Schulkind Shindig. Hey, Doug, all.

🥁

1:41pm doctorjazz:

Notes and Tones was the Art Taylor book, read ages ago, was an interesting read.

1:43pm Doug Schulkind:

Sem Chumbo in the howwwwse!

1:53pm Sem Chumbo:

It's good to have the drums and the organ equal partners, the drummer getting...

1:54pm Doug Schulkind:

You get no argument from me, Sem Chumbo.

1:55pm Dean:

Reminds me: Israel Vibration played the club behind our house Wednesday night. I didn't attend, but I heard them loudly and clearly.

1:58pm Doug Schulkind:

Hey, Dean! Wow, Israel Vibration have been having a good long run.

2:00pm sinner:

Ut-ter. Ut-ter. Ut-ter Drummer Some. Ut-ter. Ut-ter. Ut-ter Drummer Some. Ut-ter. Ut-ter. Ut-ter Drummer Some.

2:01pm Doug Schulkind:

Word up, sinner!

2:04pm Doug Schulkind:

Please enjoy this number from Noel Bartholomew "Zoot" Simms.

2:07pm Jeff Golick:

Hiyo.

2:08pm Doug Schulkind:

JeffGo®!

2:20pm Alex In Illinois:

When I think of Zimbabwe and the revolution, I think of Thomas Mapfumo.

2:21pm Doug Schulkind:

You will hear from Mr. Mapfumo twice in this set, Alex.

2:21pm Dean:

Heh, Mapfumo played the club behind my house in early October!

2:23pm Dean:

That show didn't rock the rafters the way Israel Vibration's did.

2:24pm Doug Schulkind:

@Dean
Behind your house is the place to be!

2:25pm Dean:

Some nights, yes.

2:25pm Alex In Illinois:

Dean, in what part of the planet do you reside?

2:26pm Dean:

The Berkeley part.

2:29pm Doug Schulkind:

@Dean
You know my sis and bro-in-law live in Berkeley. Oregon Street, a few blocks from the Berkeley Bowl.

2:34pm Doug Schulkind:

Thomas Mapfumo in happy times: friss0n.com...

2:35pm Dean:

I know the area well! We're closer to Berkeley Bowl West, where I frequently shop. (Closed today, though, 'cuz they try to be good to their crew.)

2:37pm geezerette:

Hello,Doug & all.
Sweet music. :)

2:38pm Doug Schulkind:

Berkley Bowl has about 473 different kinds of mushrooms.

Hello, sweet geezerette!

2:38pm ?:

So thankful to be spending Black Friday with you and not the shopping mall. My wife wants to know if you are going to social work school, since that is what she did mid-life.

2:39pm Dean:

You exaggerate, @Doug. Can't be more than 385. Lotsa beer, too. Every time I shop with my kids I faux-complain that the only thing missing from BB is a beer section. Then we stumble upon the aisle, and I'm like a kid in a candy store, "Wow, they finally added a beer section!"

2:40pm Robert Brenner:

(Forgot to include my name.)

2:41pm Doug Schulkind:

@Robert Brenner
Hey! So happy to see you here. Yes, I am going to social work school. About to finish my 3rd of 4 semesters en route to an MSW.

2:42pm Doug Schulkind:

@Dead
Classic "Dad" move.

2:43pm Dean:

Yep, and the kids' responses are equally predictable. The 6YO thinks it's hilarious, the 11YO is all raised eyebrows.

2:45pm Doug Schulkind:

The eyebrows will remain raised for about 8-9 more years.

2:46pm Dean:

Gonna be a party.

2:48pm Doug Schulkind:

I've loved every minute of it.

2:49pm David D:

I'm back and greatly enjoying the set!

2:50pm Dean:

Absolutely. A remarkable paradox.

🥁

2:55pm doctorjazz:

Thanks for a great post Turkey show, keep going! (easy for me to say...}

2:55pm Doug Schulkind:

David D, the man who never sleeps.

🥁

2:56pm Brian in UK:

Remember when Thomas was singing Zanu Zanu.
The British authorities would not let him play WOMAD (was I sore not to see him) on the grounds that he would not go back to Oregon. Nuts.

2:56pm Doug Schulkind:

@doctorjazz
Doing this last set is my best way to put off writing my last two papers.

🥁

2:56pm doctorjazz:

Only about 11 in Leipzig, no?

🥁

2:57pm doctorjazz:

I can understand that, Doug...

2:58pm Sem Chumbo:

Thanks, Doug. See you again, next time. BiUK, D.D. in Leipzig, people of the night? Catch you when the sun shines, Bye!

2:58pm David D:

Actually *only* 9pm now - for a change!

🥁

2:58pm Brian in UK:

Adios, Sem.

2:58pm David D:

Have a great weekend, Sem!

2:59pm Doug Schulkind:

So long, Sem Chumbo. Thanks for stopping by!

🥁

3:00pm Brian in UK:

Fashionable not to wear a tie these days. Have you noticed?

3:00pm geezerette:

@Dean, Do wild turkeys saunter down your street? My Berkeley dwelling brother and his neighbors see them walk race every year.
I fnd that hilarious.

'Bye Sem!

3:00pm Johanna Climenko:

Hi Doug, I'm Bob's wife Johanna. We've chatted in the past. It's wonderful to be hearing your splendid show on a leisurely Black Friday. It is almost like having a visit. I wanted to cheer you on in completing SW school. I went to SW school after 25 years of working as a dance/movement therapist, and a mind/body psychotherapist. Administrators of the hospitals and clinics that I worked in kept trying to send me to SW school. I kept saying 'you couldn't pay me enough'. Long story short, I ended up loving it. Twenty years later, I'm proud to have LCSW-R added to my credentials. Social Workers are generally cool activists. Congratulations, I hope you are enjoying it!

3:01pm Doug Schulkind:

@geezerette
On my way to work this past Tuesday, I had to stop the car and let 20 (I counted them) wild turkeys cross the road. On my way home from work, I encountered them again crossing back!

3:03pm Dean:

@geezerette: They haven't made it to our street, but they are definitely in the 'hood. My daughter likes to visit a park a few blocks away. She calls it Turkey Park, and the turkeys hung out at my son's former elementary school (along with Canada geese). A few days ago we were driving in the 'hood as the turkeys crossed. One walked directly up to the car and squawked. Didn't even approach a gobble. I informed the family that the turkey was saying, "Fuck Thanksgiving!"

3:04pm Doug Schulkind:

@Johanna
Wow! Reading that gave me goosebumps. It is a wild ride being back in school after so long. I am a good 30 years older than most of my classmates. (I adore them. So idealistic and inspiring.)

3:04pm geezerette:

Ha ha, that's wonderful! Companion children's book to "Make Way For Ducklings".

3:05pm Doug Schulkind:

@Johanna
I'm going to needlepoint your comment into a pillow.

🥁

3:06pm Brian in UK:

Doug, you may have no idea what they think of you. Maybe they do 'cause I imagine that the feeling is reciprocated.

3:07pm Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
Some of them are creeped out by the old fart. Others are totally cool and comfortable with the creeped out old fart.

🥁

3:08pm Brian in UK:

Either way it is a reaction.

3:08pm Doug Schulkind:

OK, I am getting hungry for re-heated turkey and stuffing. Who's with me?!?!

3:09pm geezerette:

One of the many reasons to love WFMU is the variety of life enhancing things all the DJs do in addition to spinning records.
Plethora of polymaths here.

3:10pm Doug Schulkind:

Nice "Wimoweh" quote in the horn section just there.

🥁

3:10pm Brian in UK:

Great show as ever, Doug. What is that rif?

3:11pm Doug Schulkind:

@geezerette
In the UK they say "polymaths."

🥁

3:11pm Brian in UK:

Ofcourse.

3:11pm Dean:

Heh, my son just started singing, "...the lion sleeps tonight..." Caught the quote. A few days ago I played some Aretha Franklin. He was all, "That woman can sing!"

3:12pm Doug Schulkind:

@Dean
You are doing it RIGHT, Sir.

3:12pm geezerette:

Chip off the ol'... :D

🥁

3:13pm Brian in UK:

So they did not invent flying.

3:13pm Dean:

I don't think I paid much attention to Aretha at 11. Took a while for me to grow up.

3:16pm Doug Schulkind:

Just the other day I was chatting with a resident at the nursing home where I'm doing my internship. The woman had been a gospel singer when she was younger. We started talking about music and the subject led to talking about Aretha singing gospel in her father's church at the age of 14.

🥁

3:16pm doctorjazz:

Cool story, Doug!

3:17pm Dean:

Heading out for burgers! Great show, as always. Great way to spend a post-Thanksgiving morning!

🥁

3:17pm doctorjazz:

Great weekend all!

3:18pm Doug Schulkind:

What a fabulous blast to spend the afternoon (evening, morning) with you all!! Thanks for a great date!

3:20pm geezerette:

Thank you, Doug! Great show, great company.

3:22pm Doug Schulkind:

Back atcha, geezerette and everyone!

3:22pm Doug Schulkind:

Don't let nobody tell you nothin' different.

3:51pm Johanna Climenko:

Doug, I was a group work major in SW school. A professor suggested we 'do a needlepoint pillow saying 'Trust the Group.' BTW, I worked in a psychogeriatric program for 11 years, and we had clients who were children of slaves! We had amazing music therapy sessions, you can imagine the songs we sang! When Bob and I were in New Orleans, we happened on a Sunday afternoon tea dance(!) where the 'New Leviathon Foxtrot Orchestra' was playing.' People were doing the cakewalk to songs my clients sang. An elderly woman cakewalked to me as I was singing along. She said 'You're too young to know this.' I said 'Apparently not!'

4:03pm Doug Schulkind:

@Johanna
Amazing! I am specializing in geriatric social work. The powerful connections and humanity you are describing are chiefly the reason why. Thank you so much for sharing this.
