Listener comments!

8:53am annie:

yeah, baby!

8:54am Doug Schulkind:

annie baby!

8:58am annie:

i was thinking about some of my favorite sounds, things that make me stop in my path and just HAVTA dig it. four things: a bass thumping along with a smooth tune, piano keys boogie-style, clocktower bells every quarter hour, a raging thunderstorm....these are sounds that soothe me...

8:58am annie:

good morning doug!

🥁

8:58am listener james from westwood:

Gooood Friday, Doug and all!! Finally emerging from Sopranos-land with this gigunda book. Maybe I should celebrate at Holsten's.

🥁

8:59am dutchtheo:

Howdy drummer babies! (Baby Dodds)

8:59am Doug Schulkind:

Welcome to Raging Thunderstorm Radio, annie!

Have some mortadell on me, Listener James from Westwooood!

Hi-de-ho, dutchtheo!

🥁

9:04am listener james from westwood:

Ohhhh! Lemme know if you want in on the gabagool'!

9:06am Maggie B.:

Gabagool morning Doug and all! (I just started re-watching the Sopranos, LJFW.)

9:09am Doug Schulkind:

In my old Brooklyn nabe, the Italian-American stronghold Carroll Gardens, they actually spoke that way. "Gimme a little mutz and a lard bread!"

9:09am Webhamster Henry:

This is a rockin' Om namaha shivaya!

9:10am still b/p:

Morning.
An early season line from Sopranos and food matters always makes me chuckle...related to the young priest who was extra friendly with the missus and extra hungry. A tray of good leftovers is gone and Tony’s annoyed guess is that “...Monsignor Jughead was here.”

9:10am Maggie B.:

My mother-in-law talks like that too Doug!

9:11am Doug Schulkind:

Hello still Web/H and still b/p!

And great morning, Maggie B!

9:12am Doug Schulkind:

There is a special place in my heart (and cerebral cortex) for the nadaswaram.

You're soaking in it.

9:12am Sem:

Walked my bride down the aisle to this.

Hello, Doug,regulars, irregulars, and those seeking a remedy for the latter.

9:14am Doug Schulkind:

Irregardless of the irregularities, HELLO Sem!

🥁

9:15am dutchtheo:

i went cold turkey 2 weeks without GTDS, now cold turkey pizza antipasti focaccia mortadella mozzarella diet...

9:16am Doug Schulkind:

Serving up huge platterfuls of hot turkey, dutchtheo. Let your ears gobble!

🥁

9:19am dutchtheo:

mmm, the so-called hot turkey curry cure

9:20am Doug Schulkind:

From Wikipedia:

"Jalte Badan is a 1973 Bollywood drama film about the perils of drug addiction. Kiran (Kiran Kumar) is a young man who goes to Bombay to study. While his university is caught up in a student strike, Kiran descends into drug use, encouraged by an evil mobster and the peer pressure of his fellow students. Kiran's only hope is that a kindly cabaret dancer Malti (Padma Khanna) will take pity on him and call for his snake charmer girlfriend (Kum Kum) to rescue him with her true love."

9:22am Doug Schulkind:

Next up, a balm to soothe that savage beast of a track.

9:23am Sem:

Geez, I missed having a snake charmer girlfriend? Talk about asheltered upbringing.

9:28am Doug Schulkind:

Think about it this way, Sem. Maybe you are the snake.

9:29am Uncle Michael:

Doog Gninorm, Enoyreve!

9:29am Doug Schulkind:

I'll have what you're drinking, Uncle Michael!

9:34am annie:

re: Sopranos: when JG opened that restaurant in oneonta 15 or so years ago, he threw the best party! all food and drinks were free and the city turned out to partake. he and my son sat at the bar later talking about how to proceed on his movie-making efforts. james told him just go out and do it. Dylan took that to heart and he's still going strong, following his heart. i love that story.

9:37am Webhamster Henry:

Give the Thereminist Some!

9:38am Uncle Michael:

2%?

9:38am Doug Schulkind:

Make mine a double, UM.

9:39am Uncle Michael:

4%?

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

@Webhamster Henry
Any truth to the rumor that your autoharp is a diesel?

9:40am Webhamster Henry:

No Diesel, I have to keep winding it like a Victrola.

9:41am Webhamster Henry:

It's an Autoharp/it's a Hurdy-Gurdy #itsafloorwax

9:43am Doug Schulkind:

I don't like autoharps with good taste, I like autoharps that taste good.

9:44am Uncle Michael:

You got autoharp on my hurdy gurdy!

9:45am Doug Schulkind:

This sizzling track comes courtesy of a compilation of sizzlers shared by our own Little Danny, host of The Cool Blue Flame. Danny shared this at his blog, Office Naps: officenaps.com...

9:48am listener Rey:

good morning all. Listening quietly here at work and digging the sounds

9:51am Doug Schulkind:

I hope you are using your special GtDS-issued trowel, listener Rey!

🥁

9:51am Brian in UK:

Hello boss and fellow acolytes.

9:52am Uncle Michael:

This is Rimski? Of Korsakov.

9:52am Doug Schulkind:

Speaking of proper digging, hello Brian in UK!

9:53am ndbob:

well hello Doug and everyone!

9:54am listener Rey:

Que es lo que pasa aqui, ah?

🥁

9:55am Brian in UK:

@dutchotheo guess you had a good time in Italy and broader girth than when you left.

🥁

9:55am dutchtheo:

i think it's a glass harp, it flutes like a champagne-flute (with a wet finger on the rim) (UM; Rimski or Korsakoff, i can't rembember)

9:55am Goyim in the AM:

Morning folks. Today you are soundtracking my translation of Nazi legal writing, which is nice because the work itself would drive me nuts otherwise.

9:55am Doug Schulkind:

GintheA, hey hey!

🥁

9:56am Brian in UK:

ndbob great to 'see' you. Hope all is well.

9:56am ndbob:

been quite a while

9:57am ndbob:

Heya brian - UM - Goyim et al

9:57am annie:

nd, you've been on my mind... nice to seeyou!

9:58am ndbob:

heya Annie!

9:58am listener Rey:

Nice cumbia reworking by Bioritmo of Rafael Cortijo's hit song

9:59am Sem:

Landscaper BiUK, the war on unwanted vegatation goes well? Casualties aplenty, no doubt.

9:59am Uncle Michael:

Let's play "hi, Bob."

🥁

10:00am dutchtheo:

BiUK, definitely right on the good time in Italy and the waist!

10:01am listener Rey:

El Hipo means "the hiccup" which explains what those little yelps were

10:03am Doug Schulkind:

Aha! Thanks, Rey!

10:03am ndbob:

HI UM

10:03am Doug Schulkind:

ndbob? NDBOB!

10:04am ndbob:

good to listen again

🥁

10:06am dutchtheo:

hi bob & ndbob, el hipo (hiccups)

10:07am Doug Schulkind:

Some info about our dear William: playitagainmax.blogspot.com...

10:08am ndbob:

hi theo

10:09am ndbob:

somehow I don't think I've heard this before

10:09am ndbob:

this I have tho

10:09am Flash Strap:

morning Doug, morning Drummers!

10:10am Doug Schulkind:

Mighty mighty Flash Strap. You are a lovesome beast, Sir!

🥁

10:11am Brian in UK:

@Sem my body parts seem to be taking a beating, cuts, bruises and unexpected aches upon waking. There is a lot of clearing to do. The trees especially have been left to their own devices for too long.

10:11am Ramblin' Ray:

Nice segue Drummerman. Greetings all!

10:11am Flash Strap:

this beast comes bearing love

🥁

10:11am Brian in UK:

Oh and a chainsaw course next month. Be afraid!

10:12am Flash Strap:

never heard this Basho before, it's great

10:13am ndbob:

didn't he record for Takoma too?

🥁

10:13am Brian in UK:

Odd that the Strickland is recorded on Deram. A UK label. Early Cat Stevens etc.

10:13am Goyim in the AM:

Recently had the pleasure of introducing a very young fingerstyle guitarist (i.e. she learned from the dudes who learned from the dudes who learned from Michael Hedges records) to late Basho -- young mind blown, the future is assured.

10:15am Doug Schulkind:

At GtDS, we blow young minds. Of all ages.

10:16am Doug Schulkind:

@ndbob
Yes!

10:16am Sem:

A fair fight, then, BiUK, both sides getting in their licks.
Advantage: the Laird of the land, unless of course you are tangling with Great Birnam Wood, in which case the help of witches three is indicated.

🥁

10:17am dutchtheo:

from the William R. Strickland info: "I guess you would call him a folk singer".... (opinion of Louis Armstrong on folk:"I ain't never heard a horse sing a song")

🥁

10:17am Brian in UK:

Steve Earle got me thinking of Otis Lee Crenshaw (Rich Hall) He had eight wives, all called Brenda.

10:20am Doug Schulkind:

Just so long as we get you thinking, Brian in UK.

🥁

10:21am Brian in UK:

Sem there is one beautiful varigated maple. The garden was well thoughtout originally. This is just the time of year to seen the blossoms.

🥁

10:24am Brian in UK:

Sem none of that witchy malarky in Shropshire.

10:27am ndbob:

wow what a bizarre death

10:28am Flash Strap:

i never knew that about Basho, that is just weird and unfortunate

10:29am still b/p:

Witchy Malarky should have her own rhyming children’s tale. Or role in a fillum.

10:32am Sem:

Just so, still b/p.

One man's malarky is another man's ...

10:32am Doug Schulkind:

I'd vote for Witchy Malarky.

10:32am listener Rey:

... truth??

10:35am listener Rey:

This drumming is most definitely NOT malarky.

10:36am Doug Schulkind:

Andrew Cyrille is playing so stupendously here. He played live on my radio show the day Dizzy Gillespie died. He dedicated his performance to Dizzy.

10:38am Doug Schulkind:

Is there are record that Ron Carter, Reggie Workman or Fred Hopkins ISN'T on?

10:39am Flash Strap:

he's amazing

🥁

10:40am Brian in UK:

@Doug, Mull of Kintyre by Paul McCartney. I think.

10:41am Doug Schulkind:

Steve McCall was the original drummer in the trio Air, with Threadgill and Hopkins. Steve McCall also used to ask my wife out on dates in Chicago when she was 14.

10:41am Flash Strap:

yikes!

10:42am Doug Schulkind:

I guess that makes puts me in a category with Andrew Cyrille. We both replaced Steve McCall.

10:42am rw:

Good morning! 14?

10:43am still b/p:

Local chapter Roy Moore Club.

10:43am Doug Schulkind:

Don't worry, rw. She never took him up on it.

10:44am Doug Schulkind:

He probably thought she was at least 15.

10:45am Doug Schulkind:

Wow, that 15 minutes just flew by.

10:46am holland oats:

drumma! peoples! reece's pieces!

10:49am Goyim in the AM:

There's controversy as to whether Basho's death was a result of negligence or a pre-existing physical condition; both sides are adamant, but no suit was filed as far as I can tell. The chiropractor in question was a pretty prestigious one.

10:49am Doug Schulkind:

Hey-O, holland oats!

10:49am ndbob:

heya holland oats

🥁

10:51am Brian in UK:

What was the name of the nun running music in the school?

10:53am Dean:

First time I saw Jimmy Smith at Catalina Bar & Grill, Cyrille was supposed to be the drummer, but when Jimmy appeared on stage he reported that Cyrille couldn't make it for one reason or another. I always regret missing him. And I don't remember who sat in for him.

10:55am northguineahills:

That's how my recs are organized.

🥁

10:58am Brian in UK:

Drummers of Burundi.

10:59am annie:

love these people and their music!! had to turn up the volume...

🥁

11:01am dutchtheo:

BiUk or Adam Ant:?

11:01am Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, Dean! Jimmy Smith! Adam Ant! northguineahills!

11:03am Jeff g. on the LIRR:

Checking in to see what condition my drummer is in.

11:03am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
Sister Mary Ignatius Davies?

11:06am Doug Schulkind:

Hello, Jeff "Gonthe" Lirr!

🥁

11:06am Brian in UK:

Thanks, Doug. She has a lot to answer for. All good I would suggest.

11:07am annie:

the last time i YT-ed the Tambours group, i wormholed for about 2 hours.. great stuff

11:08am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
She was the Captain Walter Dyett of Alpha Boys School. (Look up Dusable High School in Chicago.)

11:10am Doug Schulkind:

You download Les Tambours du Bronx to your heart's content here: atuqtuq-askatu.blogspot.com...

11:10am still b/p:

The shouts in the drum attack made me wonder if the Gramercy Riffs had redirected their energies to focused ensemble percussion work.

11:11am Jeff Moore:

This is k3wl. Giving lots of drummers some!

11:12am Doug Schulkind:

Hello and welcome, exalted Jeff Moore!

🥁

11:16am Brian in UK:

Doug you need Robert Greenidge. King of the Pans.

11:17am Doug Schulkind:

Yes I most certainly do, Brian in UK.

11:17am Jeff Moore:

Or a double bill with Les Tambours du Bronx and some great big gloriously messy brass band!

🥁

11:26am βrian:

Just back from the moontains of Montana. Good day.

11:27am Dean:

A triple bill with an ensemble whose name is even more interesting with a typo: https://www.discogs.com/Buffa-Maise-Eric-Les-Tambours-Scar%C3%A9s-De-Grand-Bois-Malbars-Scared-Drums/release/4305594

Pretty sure they mean "sacrés."

11:27am Doug Schulkind:

Isthmus really you, βrian?!

11:28am northguineahills:

Dug the Les Tanbours du Bronx, new to me!

11:29am Dean:

Just in from D2D: http://www.dust-digital.com/listen-all-around/

🥁

11:29am βrian:

Saw some of your colleagues, @Dean, at Open Repo.

11:30am Doug Schulkind:

@Dean
I just received that email from D-t-D!

11:30am Dean:

I don't know it, @βrian. Music? Books? Information-ish stuff?

11:32am Dean:

Open Repositories in Bozeman. Huh. Folks from Berkeley there? Cool.

🥁

11:32am βrian:

Open Repositories. Lots of Inst. Repository, data repository, digital collections, etc. going on.

11:33am Dean:

I see UC folks on the program, nobody from my campus. Wish I'd known about this. One of my staff might have attended.

11:33am Doug Schulkind:

I played percussion in a steel drum band in college. See if you can pick me out of the group in this photo from 1982: tinyurl.com...

11:34am thedunkel:

Happy Fathers Day Mr. Drummer!

11:35am Dean:

http://firstmonday.org/article/view/8097/6583

11:36am Dean:

11:36am Doug Schulkind:

I am your ...faaaaaather... thedunkel!

11:37am ndbob:

Ah I see Doug

🥁

11:38am βrian:

I think I saw that. Need to check. It's so easy to get buried in the minutiae of daily work. Oy.

11:40am thedunkel:

You @MrDrummer and Robert Pollard will have to duke it out! :)

11:41am listener Rey:

Thanks for acknowledging the good fathers. I've also been known to be a bad mother...shutyomouth!

11:42am ndbob:

good Patti song there

🥁

11:42am Brian in UK:

Very interesting show, Doug. Must go and listen to some birdsong.
Good weekend everyone.

11:43am Doug Schulkind:

Can't you just read the birds' Tweets, Brian in UK?

11:45am Doug Schulkind:

I'm gonna watch Spain vs. Portugal in a couple hours. Who's with me? (With Uncle Michael doing play-by-play.)

🥁

11:46am dutchtheo:

Doug, easy, similar period like your avatar, did your son pass? mine did! happy fathers(day). BiUK that ain't folk but chirp chirp.

11:46am Uncle Michael:

Portuguese is my forte'...and French, of course.

11:48am ndbob:

I've tried - but I don't have any interest at all in the World Cup.

11:49am Doug Schulkind:

@dutchtheo
Yes, both photos from the same period. My daughter did indeed pass!

11:50am ndbob:

11:50am Uncle Michael:

11:52am ndbob:

11:52am Uncle Michael:

Love me by the pound.

11:52am ndbob:

11:53am Uncle Michael:

Thanks for the jar sauce, woman.

11:54am Uncle Michael:

And thanks for the music, Doug.

11:54am Doug Schulkind:

Uncle Michael's not going to jail, but he'll sentence your ears to love prison for next three hours. Go willingly!

Hinky Dinky Time is next!

PLAYLIST: wfmu.org...

11:54am annie:

🥁

11:54am dutchtheo:

Ah, daughter, congrats!. Morocco _ Iran, now with some dutch input. Skimpy input otherwise for Dutch and US football,

11:54am Dean:

Pardon me?

11:54am Sem:

I think I had the title of this song in a fortune cookie fortune. Prescient, I thought.

See ya, Doug, the Schulkinder, and all those irregular ones, yearning to be un-irregular. Later.

11:55am Uncle Michael:

Pardon, were you speaking of your commute?

11:55am listener Rey:

spaghetti sauce is so specific in this song, which brings us all the way back to Italian food!

11:55am ndbob:

11:56am Doug Schulkind:

So-long, Sem!

So happy to see you, ndbob!

11:57am Dean:

Gig economy, IYKWIMAITYD.

11:58am Doug Schulkind:

GtDS: Saucy sounds from the Drummerman!

11:58am Doug Schulkind:
