Welcome to Monday Jazz...

Heya, Dan. Chiming in quick just to say that your audio levels are noticably lower than usual. Or were, it's a bit better now. You barging?

Howzzat?

Hi, Dan, TAndy. Sounds fine here.

Much better, pretty much how Dan R was! Love these Dan Dan Mondays btw. Heya Marcus

Afternoon Dan! Chatters!

Hey Dan & all

Hello all! Live today!

That was real nice🎶

Thanks for the jamz! Dig yer show

Buck Wild! There was an ill-fated musician with that name in S.F., he took stage wearing only a plunger thong!

Randy Brecker's debut, produced by Duke Pearson...

Heya Ambrose, Christine, Buck, and all henceforth! Loving the show so far, just stopped for some Checkers on the way to Seaside. Big love to Dan Ruccia, that last tune he played was a legendary one.

Mammatus Expanding Majesty, Expanding Majesty -

Def gonna have to listen to that band

Lunch. Thai chicken. I have vegetables, TCP, coconut milk, Thai basil, jasmine rice... Somebody loan me a lime.

Greetings Dan and listeners. Since you are in Princeton will be expecting the obligatory Princeton Public Library shout out

Good afternoon all!

Hello Parrscream...

Brining to mind "Naughty Naughty" rocker John Parr (screammmm!"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Parr

Bond Theme alert...

One more soundtrack riff to come...

Leslie Bricusse wrote Feeling Good with Anthony Newley.

This Frisell and Morgan piece is magnificent 💙

Just gorgeous!

I like the MASH theme music.Never really thought much of thevTV show. Theme from Room 222 most underrated TV theme music.

I loved it in the day, I wonder how it play for me now. A friend watched it recently and said Hawkeye's constant propositioning the nurses is a little tiresome

That canned laugh track and his junior varsity Groucho Marx act made me switch to UHF offerings

Didn’t Kronos Quartet release something similar sounding to this.?

This is them!

They released something EXACTLY like that!

It's a rare day when you don't introduce me to three or four artists with whom I'm unfamiliar.

I was taking no chances today, dug deep for new stuff, breaking my back dragging it in the door...

hi Dan and fellow PRB fam

Ahoy?

Ahoy!

Hey Ahab, call me, "Dan"...

You're Ishmael from now on.

I'm TAndy!

Anyone who's read Moby Dick, say so.

lol, Ishmaels Dans and TAndys, ahoy all

Mondae innit

Absolute belter of a tune right here

Agreed

Love that Don Pullen, Ricky Ford and Hamiett on horns

This is an instant buy on Bandcamp for me, thanks Dan!

I love Don Pullen. You should hear him play nasty B-3 on David Murray's Shakill's Warrior.

Duly noted!

Oh dude this album is one of the best physical purchases I made this year.

Kronos Quartet is celebrating their 50thanniversary season with two concerts at Bang in a Can’s LOUD Weekend at MASS MOCA in North Adams, MA on July 27-29: https://massmoca.org/event/bang-on-a-can-loud-weekend-2023/

The Shemp label is good but the Curly label more experimental

In S.F. I dated someone who worked P.R. for Kronos, I got to see them and be around them quite a bit. This might be my favorite from them, the African one...

Do you know the legend of The Fake Shemp?

No, please.

My best Curly voice….not sure but if you hum a few bars!!!Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk

Fake Shemp 💀 it's been a while

You got us going, Dan. When I was ten or so, Sally Starr played Warner Brothers cartoons and Stooges shorts.

After he died they filmed four shorts with old footage and a lot of obscured double standing in, thge "fake Shemps"...

Sort of like Bela Lugosi in PLAN 9

Yes!

Probably better than the Joe Besser shorts.

Not so hard!

Probably funnier than Two and a Half Men.

Never verified that Curly Joe joined the group and then after contracts were signed told Moe he was abused as a kid and didn't want to be hit. Supposedly, they worked around it...

Network sitcoms are dreadful. I liked Community, and Brooklyn 99.

I used to listen to COMMUNITY creator Dan Harmon's podcast religiously. He went on to create RICK & MORTY..

Went to Prex and picked up a Dangerfield film I never heard of MY 5 WIVES...

Me neither. I saw Rodney at Emerald City, the former Latin Casino.

That Rodney film never got any respect

"Rappin' Rodney" got him huge respect in the hip-hop community

Latin Casino: Francis Albert, Dean, Sammy, and eventually XTC. Sorry I missed the latter.

Would've like to see Prince there...

Would have liked to have seen Prince anywhere.

This is so good.

Sounds like something I'd hear on Grady's show.

I have a sealed vinyl copy of Sign 'o' The Times that I bought

(Oh to be at home enjoying a smoke to this one...)

35 years ago. I wonder what it's worth?

When it comes to Latin Casino shows it’s Al Martino and everyone else

I prefer Pat Martino.

Sergio Martino, the Italian genre film director!

You stumped me Dan. Sergio?

Careful Marcus Remember what that Director in the Godfather woke up to when he rejected Al Martino

Well played, Patrick.

Here's one never on CD or Bandcamp, Jarmusch's Del-Byzanteens releases....

Just horsing around Marcus. Pat Martino is numero uno Martino

Martino directed ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK and wrote tghe Christopher Lee vehicle THE WHIP & THE BODY

You could find Nixon's Head in your bed. Sorry, long forgotten Philly group.

Or Herman’s Head

Double shot of Jim Jarmusch🤗

Nixon's Head are friends, used to see them all the time in the 80s...

Just went ahead and ordered those Denudes and Squrl records... What I heard made it an easy decision

Congrats!

I have at least 30 or 40 records still waiting to be organized, and a shelf that's been sitting in boxes for months 💀 I dread assembling anything from Ikea

Some of us, especially Dan, own way too many records.

hey Dan shout to DiBella retiring after 48 years .gotta give the guy credit. No talent unfunny obnoxious and playlist of 10 same songs.Amazing he lasted that long

@Patrick 😝😂

Thank you for the show today, Dan! Wonderful selections as always!

Had me there for a sec, I was forced to listen to him for years at a job, it made me murderous (cue "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" and "Nikki Hoeky" forever...

A 45? I think the last new 45 I bought was Breathing by Kate Bush.

Last 45 I bought was from Jerry Gordon at 3rd street

The first was (I can't get no) Satisfaction when I was nine.

Brilliant stuff today Dan, many thanks!

Thanks 'Brose!

As Taggart said to Hedley Lamarr, 'Ditto'.

Next Time!
