The New Abnormal Fri Sep 2 with ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

It’s “ኻᶒ ᚻєឃ Ⱑᛔᚥፀ𐌓ᛗⲀᶅ” on uoʇǝɔui̩ɹꓒ ꓭꓤꓒꓟ

I wonder what happens when those four touch the big red button.

The New Abnormal begins.

The button of abnormality...

Good morning, sir.

Good morning, TAndy.

Good day, DJ DaveTheObscure!

Good morning -ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀

¡ ʇuǝʇuoɔɭɐꓪ ɹꓪ noʎ oʇ sᵷui̩ʇǝǝɹ⅁

Oh, highTAndy

-ᎷяMØᎡ𐊏ᏐNᏳ-☠

'Tis indeed.

MrM I hope to see you in the chat bright and early for Laborwave

Also thank you Mr. Obscure for posting the Bandcamp links, on this wonderful Bandcamp Friday.

🙏 Happy to provide excellent customer service for our valued clients. 😬

I should be in the chat by the second show of the day. Also, first show will likely have a digital archive. #ExtraSleepy

Nice selections! Cheers, DJ DaveTheObscure!

🙏 I am honored that you sacrifice sleep to check out the show.

smooth transition, loved this album

🙏🏾 Yeah, I heard echoes of Harold Budd in Surya Botofasina's music.

YES! Great song/lp here!

Anyone still have the geometric shaped lp cover w/the cut corners?

🌦🌧🌨⛈🌩. I have the original LP, sure.

It was in 1971 that my ears were opened to good music. This was one of the first LPs I purchased with my meager allowance.

Got to see the Winwood-Capaldi reunion in 1994 opening for the Grateful Dead in Wash DC. Jerry sat in for a song or 2 at end. Dear Mr Fantasy most likely.

But sadly no Chris Wood of course

Rebop Kwaku Baah presence on the perc makes these early 70s Traffic really groove.

Already loving this Tony Bray

Like Chris Wood, Rebop Kwaku Baah also died in 1983

@ TAndy, Tony Bray does a lot of session work and small venue performances. This release has a consistent vibe.

The joined-hands howling figures in the picture at the top of the screen here are troubled with the ages old question "Should we press the giant red button, or not?"

🔴 That button always gets pressed.

This is the exact type of Jazz I'm in love with. This and just about anything that WJJZ 106.1 used to play

https://superfriends.fandom.com/wiki/%27Don%27t_Press%27_button

Haha Brian I asked the very same question earlier during the show. Just smash that button

That "Don't Press Button" button reminds me of the rubber stamp I had made that prints "Do Not Stamp".

Nice. Short thumbnail form just the word "Don't"

YES!

oh hell yeah more zappa

If only Zappa didn't sabotage his work, I'd easily be able to air more of it.

Starting to formulate thoughts, thinking I’ll probably enjoy this,

Good morning DSM

Take it slowly, DSM.

Haha thanks. Good morning everyone ☕️

JLP !

The famous Helsinki concerts.

🎻 prime Zappa period

Ruth Underwood percussion greatness

luv to hear percussion

turn it upside down

uʍop ǝpi̩sdn

This is fantastic

🙃

𓀡

Snarky Puppy has a ton of impressive music.

Loving this Jaga Jazzist

@DSM, they escaped my attention entirely until earlier this year.

Gonna have to check em out

Ph hell YEAH Ozrics

Nice here. String instruments getting play today

🎻

Elle Emeneau and neighbors Pikyu Arestee, Yuvee W Ekswyzee

SIX new albums to listen to thanks to this show and there's still another 73 minutes left. Oh boy.

It is my mission to keep you all busy with music to explore.

...and the cover of Tunnels has another red button.

Must... press...

You, PAX, and Grady are putting me out of house and home this week.

World, the time has come to (Push The Button)

Poosh da botton

Whomst

Good morning. Enjoyed that last set

Christine is not around to post the 🗣 'screaming online'.

Davíd no está aqui

The world pushed the red button and all I got was this lousy T shrt

Good morning, Rob F.

*aquí

Gonna leave this here for Christine just in case 🍩

💟💀

💜 ☠️ inspired by MrM

Many thanks and kind regards to you, DJ DaveTheObscure!

TIL Borat has a brother

WAA WAA WEE WAA

MY WIFE

Musical Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Radio Station WPRB

This is lovely

HIGH FIVE!

🙏

Zahava Ben was sampled vocalist

I love how the dvd packaging and actual disc for Borat were made to look like a shoddy pirated bootleg DVD

Zehava Ben (Born 1968 in Beer Sheva) is an Israeli Mizrahi singer. She is of Moroccon Jewish origin and is known for singing both in Hebrew and Arabic.

Scrawled Sharpie writing on the disc heh

Attention to detail.

Aye

Great segues today as always

🙏 I try to put some effort into transitions.

If Joe Frank was still on earth he could have used that E Cohen Zohar piece

Love the Balkan sounds

Their tight harmonies are quite appealing.

You have been playing Fuze quite a bit latetly

Swift Technique 😤

Somebody has to play Fuze. I am the best equipped.

Love what I've heard of them, this album is a definitely buy/listen

I know his brother from youth soccer. He told me his brother teaches at Berklee and is a great guitar player. I had no idea until hearing it here

Saw them in Princeton. Great show, but wrong audience.

Mostly elderly, sat quietly in their seats while the music was demanding all to GET UP AND DANCE!

Yeah, Fuze has roots around Princeton. He is great. Unique.

Unless it was standing room only I'd be bobbing in my chair and cutting shapes to this

Dat transition

Funky

This whole show is gonna be catalogued in a YouTube playlist for future listening

Final 8 minutes crying etc etc

get ready to flood the stage with trash

No crying!

JAM ALERT

As usual, work is getting in the way of chat, but digging the music!

I've been wondering where that melody was from for so long

Hey, Bud. Glad you were able to catch some.

that melody always reminds me of independent cinemas

Thanks Dave, another great show. Have a lovely weekend everyone!

Thank you for the show as always Dave!

🙏 Thanks, everyone for hanging out this morning. My show remains here during the fall schedule.
