Welcome to Monday Jazz!

I have been clicked in. Happy to have you in my digiteria. I hope you have a great show.

Thanks Richard!

Greetings to Dan and his listeners .Still basking in post Simpson Philadelphia glory!

I missed it! Was I in it, shaking my fist at Angelos Pizza zombies?

They cut the scene of Homer attending a BUSKIRK Rotunda film fest.

We were showing a Troy McClure double feature!

Saw a way too cool school Wild Wild West episode with gone daddy Victor Buono and Richard Pryor as his ventriloquist sidekick.like Wowsville man

Wow, I should track that down. I just watched a FLIPPEr episode where that precocious porpoise kept interfering with the shooting of an underwater monster movie...

My weekly Fugitive fix featured a young Beau Bridges,Telly Savalas and Ellen Corbin.

Flipper was always bitter he didn’t trademark his name when that San Francisco band became famous.He was not thrilled with Sex Bomb.

Minnie Riperton tune!

Didn’t think I would like this without Minnie’s vocals. But this is wonderful.Would have sounded great at a Senior Prom.

Yeah, what a vocal on the original!

Cabin Fever is very real in our fair city Dan.i took a beat down Saturday in Chinatown/Reading Terminal // Sunday Franklin Institute

A Happy Lunar Year to All. Year of the Horse.Shoutout to underrated Irish troubadours Horslips

I'm planning on having a burr under my saddle all year....

Reading Terminals a fave spot, glad there's always a roasted turkey sandwich near-by....

Did Ahmad dedicate this to Flipper?

As for fun guest stars in the 60's, I liked Lowell George on F Troop. Music and dialogue.

I learned Flipper was three females but only a male could do the backwards tail dance....

Lowell George, wow crazy! Never heard that...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XElJ25uhux8&themeRefresh=1

FTROOP like a Civil War Sergeant Bilko show.

One of the Flippers had a gig as the Miami Dolphins mascot

Yes, Flipper had an affair with Bob Griese...

Dan just name dropping 70 s Dolphins. Next I’ll get him watching NCAA tournament

Sports have gone downhill since they took roller derby off the TV...

Live from The Arena on Market Street it’s the Philadelphia Warriors

Judy Arnold!

She was the superstar. I believe the male star was Jim Williams?

Chinna Smith from Marley's band on acoustic, Ernest Ranglin from the Skatalites on electric and Charlie Hunter with his organ-sounding 8-string....

I believe American Bandstand was near The Arena

Yeah, I think the buildings still there. I used to wait outside of the broadcast so I could beat up the dancers stealing my moves. Ever-vigilant.

Mary Halvorson on guitar here!

This is sick I gotta check out more Tomeka Reid

She a big favorite, interviewed her on PRB years back...

https://soundcloud.com/fun2know/f2k-ep-23-cellist-tomeka-reid

Neat, I'll try and listen to that when I get the time

Not super well acquainted with the genre but I love some good free jazz

I'm super-acquainted but it's humbling because there's always more to discover!

I’ve listened to BUSKIRK many years. I learn something every program . However Dan does bring a weak barrel house piano game

i gots the records! Albert Ammons! Robert Shaw!

Al Does the Velvets!

Shout out to Meade Lux Lewis. Need to up your O. V. Wright game also . But all in all a still stupendous well curated program

Big OV Wright fan too...

Just noted Odetta on RCA Camden records. shout out to to NIPPER

New comp out, Black America Sings Bob Dylan, featuring that Odetta tune...

Sounds good. Joan Osborne also has a Dylan release.

And Joan Baez!

Rip to Robert Duvall at 95 . First saw him as Boo Radley . Never a bad performance

THE OUTFIT with Joe Don Baker and Robert Ryan!

This is a fun song

Sweet show will be a tough one to follow up for me rn

Thanks, had a great time. In good hands with DJ Smart Controlla..

Oh Im subbing for them today

Ray Manzarek of the Doors on keyboards here...

Ah! It's all yours Jagannath!

Next time!
