Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:04:13 PM
Hopefully your employers can't bother you today!
DSM 12:04:38 PM
Hey Jerry! and Christine! Percussion with a side of pie.
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:05:37 PM
Hi DSM! I like a person who just eats their way from Thanksgiving thru Cyber Monday
DSM 12:09:24 PM
Haha, Tis' the season to be eatin'
Christine 𓅓 12:09:37 PM
I'm digging the camel bells and percussion here...
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:10:27 PM
I like the music I chose for the first hour, a mystical vibe.
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:11:08 PM

Brian D 12:11:40 PM
Wow that was great! Rhythm rhythm! Ian Dogole.Gotta get that
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:12:44 PM
Hi Brian, glad you're here. It's only going to be available digitally. Not sure if it is available or not yet. I Have to look
gboss 12:14:06 PM
Happy Friday, Jerry
Christine 𓅓 12:14:10 PM
This set is introspective as all get out...it helps to counteract the Black Friday capitalist frenzy. 🪷
Brian D 12:14:11 PM
I found this link: https://iandogole.hearnow.com/
gboss 12:14:18 PM
Yes, really dug that track too

Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:15:37 PM
i.e. meditative music
Brian D 12:15:45 PM
But that link only has streaming I think... I could not find a way to purchase...
Brian D 12:16:36 PM
Hard to keep up with Charles Lloyd wow. Many releases in past couple years. This one has 2 great players w/him.
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:18:45 PM
3 cds released seperately but available as a box. Incredible stuff as you have commented
gboss 12:19:41 PM
We had a great Thanksgiving, thank you. I hope you and your family did as well.
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:20:32 PM
Yes, thank you gboss. It's a great holiday as we focus on our family!
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:25:03 PM
Brian this is a new one and way deep
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:31:49 PM

Much music for you today in Jerry's Room
Mike Constantine 12:38:02 PM
Ha!....Hi Jerry
Brian D 12:39:14 PM
And yes that Nat B is something else too... Thanks for turning me onto him. Grabbed a couple of his lps from Bandcamp
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:39:22 PM
Brian, you know I have enough problems with English. I will never live down my mispronounciation of "Martinez"
Brian D 12:39:58 PM
¿dónde está el aeropuerto?
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:40:27 PM
Haha. I sent people running into the hills
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:40:51 PM
This new Dave Liebman album is superb
Christine 𓅓 12:42:20 PM
🔷️🔹️📘 ➡️ 🟢🌱📗
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:43:47 PM
possible record today, Christine, not sure
Christine 𓅓 12:46:47 PM
For the playing of the theme song? I think last week was a record. Could today be a new record?
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:48:57 PM
possible
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:49:30 PM
This song is 15 minutes long
Brian D 12:50:01 PM
Keep 'em guessin heh
Brian D 12:50:15 PM
Good to see that sunshine today!
Rob F 12:50:30 PM
Hi Jerry and all. Lots of good music so far
Mike Constantine 12:50:50 PM
Most would play the theme at the top of the show (like Dave Herman and Flying) I love not knowing when I'll hear it.
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:50:53 PM
Hey Rob F, good to see you, glad you like the music
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:51:41 PM
haha. Mike, I love your cosmic sense of adventure
Rob F 12:51:52 PM
Robert Glasper is always interesting
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:52:32 PM
That Love Supreme by him was a "bonus track"
Rob F 12:56:15 PM
Yeah - looks like that is on the new Deluxe version, not the original
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:56:56 PM
yeah Rob, I was delighted to find it. I love the fact you like Glasper's music
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:57:26 PM
Brian, Ian says his latest album is available at CD Baby
DSM 12:58:01 PM
This past hour has been a nice brain massage after conversation exhaustion yesterday, thanks Jerry!
Brian D 12:58:22 PM
There we go!
gboss 12:58:36 PM
CD Baby, is that Dick Vitale's music store?
Christine 𓅓 12:58:44 PM
12:58...A new record, I think! 🐦 🎶
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:59:19 PM
Ha, thanks DSM, conversation and relative overload that requires rest, beer, and wine
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 12:59:34 PM
Why yes, Gboss!
Mike Constantine 1:00:11 PM
There's beer?
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:00:33 PM
yes, in your refrigerator
Mike Constantine 1:01:00 PM
Truth
DSM 1:09:36 PM
🍻
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:12:25 PM
I don't have that icon but I should. There are several serious beer connoisseurs here today
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:14:13 PM
I think everybody here, in fact!
Brian D 1:16:27 PM
I missed the announce, who is playing now? Guitar organ etc?
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:17:01 PM
Ed Cherry-guitar, I better start typing
Christine 𓅓 1:17:41 PM
Jerry keeps us guessing lol
Brian D 1:17:44 PM
Jerry, the joys of copy-paste await you! haha
Russell Woessner 1:31:08 PM
My favorite version of Laura: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=u83VCPOu4QI Sorry, Jerry
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:31:48 PM
Hi Russ! Whose version is that?
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:32:16 PM
I am guessing Ran Blake
Guelo 1:32:41 PM
jazz :)
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:33:21 PM
Hi Guelo!
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:33:30 PM
Haha, Russ, I checked
Russell Woessner 1:37:28 PM
Ran Blake and Jeanne Lee was a good guess, though: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ktPEOtpFcVE
Christine 𓅓 1:41:59 PM
Hmmm. I can't name that without looking. 🤔💭
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:42:28 PM
You're not old enough, but some of our listeners are
Mike Constantine 1:43:47 PM
Original by Paul Anka....that's all I know
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:44:07 PM
Excellent. Ding Ding Ding!
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:44:28 PM
He wrote this as well as "My Way"
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:45:23 PM
Mike, your mate tells you this all the time
Mike Constantine 1:46:00 PM
And the questionable Having My Baby
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:46:14 PM
Haha
Brian D 1:49:49 PM
Paul A wrote the English translation to My Way. I believe the song/music was actually written in French first by someone else though.
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:52:43 PM
Good info, Brian. News to me, I will check that out!!! I have been living behind a cloud of disinformation
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:52:54 PM
apparently
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:56:56 PM
Christine, I know you went out to lunch with your girlfriend
Brian D 1:57:50 PM
Get ready... Bobby Darin song (and Harry James, Benny Goodman etc) "Beyond the Sea" is also a translation of a French song "La Mer"...
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 1:58:29 PM
My life has been totally altered, everything I was taught is untrue!
Brian D 2:01:43 PM
Fodder for the "Is that the Original? Quiz Show" featuring your host, Jerry Gordon
Christine 𓅓 2:03:52 PM
YES!
Brian D 2:05:07 PM
It's like when I learned that every other 1970s-1980s sitcom was based on a British sitcom.
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:05:37 PM
Pulling the carpet out from under us!
Christine 𓅓 2:10:41 PM
🔥 🔥 🔥
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:11:14 PM
Cover your ears for this one, Christine
Russell Woessner 2:12:30 PM
Bonnie, Linda & Ellen! Wowie zowie!
Russell Woessner 2:15:53 PM
Tracy Nelson, not Linda Ronstadt. Brain fart
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:16:26 PM
You don't have brain farts
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:25:48 PM
Mercy!
Rofflestomp 2:34:35 PM
I love that Gretchy sounding guitar!
Christine 𓅓 2:34:46 PM
Great set, Jerry
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:40:37 PM

Rofflestomp 2:41:27 PM

Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:41:50 PM
Thanks, Christine
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:42:21 PM
Thanks, RS. I already gave all the leftover turkey to my dogs who just expected it!
Rofflestomp 2:42:34 PM
HA!
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:43:18 PM
I will admit to loving Joe Bonamassa
Mike Constantine 2:43:23 PM
I went to a frieds house yesterday so I cooked my turkey today....house smells wonderful
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:43:51 PM
Yum! Do you have cranberry sauce?
Mike Constantine 2:46:01 PM
In a can wayyyyy back in the cabinet
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:46:02 PM
This is the greatest track I ever heard that so few people know. I know two others and one is dead.
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:46:34 PM
Mike, if not now, when? You need a stepstool
Mike Constantine 2:47:14 PM
I keep cranberry sauce at arms length : )
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:47:44 PM
It takes people to the next level
Mike Constantine 2:48:42 PM
I am of the church Thou Shalt Mix Sweet and Savory
Mike Constantine 2:48:59 PM
Thou shall not
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:51:13 PM
Mike, I don't even know what you are talking about
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:52:13 PM
preposterous
Mike Constantine 2:52:48 PM
I rarely do too : )
Mike Constantine 2:53:36 PM
Thou shall not pair mint jelly with lamb : )
Christine 𓅓 2:55:06 PM
These three hours flew. Thank you Jerry! Have a good weekend, all
Serenade to a Cuckoo w/Jerry Gordon (host) 2:55:26 PM
