Welcome to Monday jazz!

yoo righteous dj dan

Did I just hear jarontee lol

\Hey Gerry! Ready for Thursday?

Hey Tandy. Uh, what?

"A genuine guarantee?"

I swore I heard you say "jarontee" instead of guarantee

I'm Donald Trump's speech writer, so maybe...

Ha!

dude i'm so ready. stitching pink said sun ra himself will be there, i'm not ready but i'm glad he still visits us from the beyond

I hope everyone has fun at the show! I won't be able to make it, but I'm looking forward to hearing all about it :)

I did say they would be surprises...

lol

And Tandy, it IS going to be broadcast live over PRB....

!!! What time does the show start again, 7?

I'll make sure I'm awake in time

7:30!

I'll be tuned right in :)

dan did you see the city arts grant for coltrane's 100th ? tell digba

Will do!

watched the "great day in harlem" doc this weekend. did some portraits you'll like, will show ya thursday

also caught shinoda's "demon pond." you'd like that film, great visual style and otherworldly synth-only soundtrack

Wold have loved to see that, I'm familiar...

IWe have the GREAT DAY picture over our kitchen table...

hearing all the stories was next level. monk was late cause he couldnt pick an outfit and he wanted to make sure he stood out lol. all the playful ribbing, all the personality

Horace Silver talking about who got fat...

Hi, Dan! Congrats on the interview. See you Thursday!

"i couldnt speak until 12" is a huge line

I was just momentarily distracted, the only real time in the interview, as he said that. "I hope I didn't miss sumthing" I thought. If I get a chance to talk to him Thursday, I might ask him about that...

Thanks Eso!

I think everyone from the Great Day photo is gone.

Yeah, Sonny Rollins was the last...

skipping for me ?

thanks danno

Fine interview. Interesting man. Unfortunately I used to pronounce the K in his name. Loudly. Don't ask me about a Cocteau Twins album from the 80's.

Best ever abuse of a K was Cleese abusing Arthur. Badly pronouncing knights.

fingers crossed here...

Made knights a three syllable word somehow.

I get your point. Neither John nor I ever meant anything untoward.

Quarantined!

I'm a bit older than Knoel, and I don't enjoy traveling as much as I used to.

Plane travel is the worst, I dread it.

Hope you enjoyed the conversation!

r.i.p. Tim Curry...

New Olivia Tremor Control!

Thanks Dan great interview. Hope to make concert Thursday unless the weekly biblical flooding

Great! Be good to see ya!

Great interview, thx Dan!

I too had a Great Day in Harlem past Saturday . At Charlie Parker fest. Shout out to Nicole Glover, Nat Adderly JR,Catherine Russell and Joshua Redman.

Love to talk to Nat Jr some day...

He actually opened with The Carpenters SUPERSTAR

Thanks for great program Dan. Hoping to see you Thursday

Take care, thanks for checking in!

Tim Curry was terrific in a CBS show called Wiseguy. Playing a sleazy record mogul. Debbie Harry was in those 7 episodes, I think.

I forgot about that arc. Is Kevin Spacey in that one too?

Jerry Lewis in the garmet district. I thought Ken Wahl was going to be Tom Cruise-big....

Tim and Ray Sharkey were the best villains on that show.

Ray Sharkey!

No overlap with Spacey. Patti D'Arbanville was on the Curry episodes.

Paul Winfield was brilliant.

Always!

The Jerry Lewis episodes were great.

It's all on Tubi

Joe Dallesandro?

Lost track of the time from my walk at mercer park, thanks for the show Dan! Looking forward to the labor wave show!
