Serenade to a Cuckoo Fri Dec 8 with Jerry Gordon on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

Good afternoon, everybody, and welcome to Serenade to a Cuckoo

Good day

Hey Mike, good morning/afternoon

Hi Jerry, Mike and all...happy Friday! Happy Hanukkah 🕎

after this song, will you or anybody tell me if my voice is clear and a correct ratio with the music "he ridiculously requested"

Hi Christine

Hi Christine, you're the greatest

Yep....proper modulation!

I haven't talked yet!

OK, I'll be listening for your voice level, Jerry 🎧

Afternoon All!

Hey Stephen!

Hi, Stephen 👍

Could my ID be heard?

Sounded fine to me listening online

Nice & clear 🎙 💯

OK, Mike, good and thanks

The wonders of chat rooms in the deep recesses of the internet to find the "proper" settings

Thanks for being here, Stephen

Easier than calling the listener line

Mike, are you working today?

Feedback (in the form of helpful comments) is good. The other feedback is bad. 🔁

I only get good feedback from this group! And Cuckoo listeners

Working 6 to ten tonight....first shift in a week

Thankfully

Dub style, nice

Hi Rob F, love the fact that you are here!

Thanks. Happy Friday and Happy Hanukkah

I have been unhappy with the voice volume vs music volume "ratio" for like a year. Went into the deep recesses of the internet and found a chatroom with answers!

Thank Rob, Chritine, et al

I need some potato latkes and sour cream

and applesauce

Right the frick on, Rob F

mmmmmmmmm

Oh and Happy Hanukkah to all who celebrate!

Thanks, Stephen. But the big story on Action News is I gave my gym 2 hours of Irish music and they are playing it!

Celebrating Hanukah and Christmas are good for the soul!

Big Story...Action News...Irish Music! You are a Philly guy, for sure!!

Yessir!

Jerry, you may be pleased to hear that Dave the Obscure played Josh Feinberg (track Puriya Kalyan from his 2013 Homage album) on Sangeet this past Saturday, and credited you for bringing Josh Feinberg to his attention.

Thanks, Christine, that's really great to hear. To be able to turn DTO on to some music is an honor

To turn anyone on to a piece of music is an honor! Nothing better!

That's the stuff Jerry! Happy Hanukkah Friday!

Haha, hi Roffle! Right on!

Dave mentioned that were it not for Jerry Gordon, he may never have heard Josh Feinberg. I remarked in the chat that it's great when discoveries on one show inspire the playlist on another show. WPRB magic. ✨️

And thank you. It's a holiday that passes down our history, especially to kids. Not a particularly "holy" day, a "OK, here's the story, kids"

Right...the Orthodox don't pay much attention to this one.

It's all about the chocolate gelt imho.

Hahahahahahaha! A message in that! Gelt is good!!!!!

Theme song time...it's officially Friday afternoon now

!

Good movie about Alan Turing called The Imitation Game

Hi DF

Mike, you know everything. I never heard of him before. Wow! What a story!

Curly: "I keep trying to think but nothing happens. "

It's an incredible story

Haha, Brian! You got it. Self-effacing!

Why you I oughta.....

Hey, I resemble that!

Oha wise guy eh?

Nyuk, Nyuk

Moe....I'm sorry

Here, hold this...

Spread out!!!

Haha, that's where Cuckoo listeners are at!

Love this bass

And the sax is just beautiful

He was kind of unique in Philly!

That was a 🔥 track

Simon Moullier

Alright, Christine!!!

That percussion!

Thanks. Fits right in today. Lots of great smooth piano stuff in the show

The sound is great! 1964!

Thanks for suggesting it

Ya sound is right there in your ear. The recent archival Brubeck one is too

More piano!

Hello Jerry. Hi everyone.

This guy makes it seem easy

Thanks for the great jazz music today!

DJ Cailyn ✨️ Girlflop!

Hi Allan, I'm trying to get my friend Bruce do a Love post-Forever Changes show next Friday, can't confirm it yet

You have inspired me

Thank you, Rob F

Thank you, producer Christine! I should have been better prepared and cleaned out the cobwebs

Very nice, Russ, thank you!

Jerry - You are reading my mind 👏. There’s plenty of Arthur Lee and Love, maybe even some Sons of Adam material to choose from

Girlflop is a good show 🎧

You got me going! He appreciated all the info you shared.

Thank you and my pleasure of course

I will mention her by name in a bit, Christine

Hi Ossy!

The scary talented Andrew Gold all over those Linda R records. (Lonely Boy, Thank you for Being a Friend etc). Great player

Shoop.

Freda Payne is a Band of Gold, for real 🌟

Betty boop boop song

Glad you mentioned that Brian. Superstars on that track, I didn't realize

Shoop and Betty Boop

Here's one you were digging, Allan, when you were supposed to be doing your homework

Ya great session and touring players in the Linda R history . Andrew Gold had a gold touch. Great writing, arranging, playing etc

Your love is like sea salt

Brian D 👍

There's a live version of Linda R doing You're No Good and they are masterful

This record was a surprise and just killer

Christine, I know you used to go dancing to this

Yeah Ossy, she's a great one

Timmy Yuro had a great voice
