: clocking in for the evening shift   6:01pm
Andrew in Toronto: Hi there, Peter, and all others who are musically adventurous! 🕰 ♥ 6:02pm
doctorjazz: My clock is a mess, Jet Lagged.
Hey DJ Peter and you all with balanced internal clocks... 🕰 ♥ 6:03pm
doctorjazz:

↳ Andrew in Toronto @6:01

Hey Andrew, welcome back! 🕰 ♥ 6:05pm
tom tom the pipers son: hi peter… i have a c pap machine that i cannot discipline myself to use … hello all… i have a poem for later…fwiw ♥ 6:05pm
adamdoesit: Hello DJ Peter and horologists.

doc, you're sprung! How was your trip?

🕰 ♥ 6:08pm
doctorjazz: I believe this is the electric-funk version of Hancock. He'll be at NJPAC for those in the NY/MJ area...
www.njpac.org...
(top ticket is $118.50-not inexpensive, but these days not out of line with larger/nicer venues. My experience there for acoustic jazz is that it doesn't pay to be far out in the audience, but it may be different with an electric band...)   6:08pm
Andrew in Toronto:

↳ doctorjazz @6:03

I am still offline.
I want to lend my support.
Thanks! 🕰 ♥ 6:09pm

DJ Peter: Welcome home,doctorjazz!
Good breathing to you, tom tom the pipers son

doctorjazz:

↳ Song: "Sister Cheryl" by "Wynton Marsalis"

Really like this tune (quick internet search says it's composed by Tony Williams, but 1at released by Wynton. Great bass line! 🕰 ♥ 6:20pm
doctorjazz:

↳ Song: "Sister Cheryl" by "Wynton Marsalis"

Wynton is stepping down from directing Jazz at Lincoln Center. ♥ 6:20pm
DJ Peter:

↳ doctorjazz @6:18

Love this tune, too. I arranged it for my college combo. But I put it in the key of C (Tony has it in B. Yikes. Improvising in B major and then B minor, beyond my band's capabilities) 🕰 ♥ 6:21pm
doctorjazz:

↳ Song: "Sister Cheryl" by "Wynton Marsalis"

branford goes a bit out on this (he was always a bit hipper than Wynton, though, deslpte my making difficulties, I actually do really like Wynton). 🕰 ♥ 6:23pm
doctorjazz:

↳ Song: "The Collector" by "Wayne Shorter"

Have Adam's Apple, but hadn't seen this album until now... ♥ 6:24pm
DJ Peter:

↳ doctorjazz @6:23

doctorjazz:

↳ DJ Peter @6:24

Only have it on LP... 🕰 ♥ 6:25pm
doctorjazz:

↳ Song: "The Collector" by "Wayne Shorter"

Hancock floating the harmonies... 🕰 ♥ 6:33pm
doctorjazz:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:05

MsJazz has to use a CPAP machine-she didn't think she could tolerate it at first, but she sleeps much better since she got used to using it (I sleep better too-though I used to listen to more music, as I had to plug in ear headphones and a digital audio player to be able to fall asleep).
it's actually very unhealthy to persist with bad snoring, obstructive sleep apnea-over the long haul, it damages your lungs, can cause your heart to enlarge, and the adverse effects of poor sleep are many... ♥ 6:35pm
DJ Peter:

↳ doctorjazz @6:33

it took me three months to get stop fighting it, longer than that to actually like it. now i actually WANT it. 🕰 ♥ 6:36pm
doctorjazz:

↳ Song: "Dolphin Dance" by "Ahmad Jamal"

Herbie Hancock tune... 🕰 ♥ 6:38pm
doctorjazz:

↳ DJ Peter @6:35

I think often people have trouble with it because, as you said, they fight it, decide they can't tolerate it before they even use it (MsJazz was like that, at first, but now never misses a night). But it's actually very useful, prevents some serious complications down the line... 🕰 ♥ 6:39pm
tom tom the pipers son:

↳ doctorjazz @6:33

thx for the advice dr j… it’s unclear to me how my sleep is interrupted. i don’t waken with a gasp or a snort … yeah but either way i should be using it... ♥ 6:43pm
DJ Peter: there's a whole CPAP subreddit and it mostly consists of people assuring newbies "it takes time you'll get used to it" 🕰 ♥ 6:46pm
doctorjazz:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:39

it actually doesn't have to be interrupted (though people often go into very light sleep, even wake up,even without sleep apnea, but they learn to put themselves right back to sleep and don't remember it). But even if you didn't wake at all, what's happening if one really has obstructive sleep apnea is that when you're sleeping, you're having multiple episodes where you actually stop breathing for a few seconds. That causes your blood oxygen to go down to levels that are unhealthy for your brain and the rest of the body, and that struggle to start breathing causes lung damage and the enlareged heart (this doesn't happen in weeks, even months, but over many years it accumulates and causes damage). 🕰 ♥ 6:46pm

↳ DJ Peter @6:43

Everything I posted is the truth, I've got no financial interest in CPAP machines (wish I did...) 🕰 ♥ 6:51pm

call your local Record Store if you want it on LP this coming Saturday... or you can get it on digital the following Friday. 🕰 ♥ 7:10pm
doctorjazz:

↳ DJ Peter @7:04

I don't really HAVE a local record store-the closest one, Scotties in Summit, closed a couple of months ago (and that was a 20 minute drive). PREX is always an option, but further, and will likely be a zoo on Saturday-Record Store Day, I assume (there are a few others, but all are a decent drive...) 🕰 ♥ 7:12pm

henderson’s shifts in tone are pretty amazing… at moments sounds like he’s playing a bari then an alto… and then the tenor 🕰 ♥ 8:14pm

↳ Song: "Well You Needn't" by "Herbie Hancock"

When you said "transitional period in jazz," I braced for guitars and flutes played by dudes in open shirts, not doubletime bop played by guys in… well Wynton isn't in a suit yet, but he'll put one on soon. ♥ 8:21pm
DJ Peter: I shoulda said "back to the future" kinda transition 🕰 ♥ 8:24pm
doctorjazz:

↳ Song: "Well You Needn't" by "Herbie Hancock"

Saw Wynton and Branford back when they were with Blakey (and Wynton a few times since, Branford later on as well, once fronting the Lincoln Center Jazz Orch at Tanglewood sans Wynton). 🕰 ♥ 8:30pm
doctorjazz:

↳ Song: "Ezz-May" by "Mel Powell"

This is very cool track indeed! (used to spend full days at PREX going through the racks, then trimmig what I bought when I added it up). Getting too old to do that these days, less patient, more back trouble... 🕰 ♥ 8:32pm
doctorjazz:

↳ Song: "Every Bear That Ever There Was" by "Jenny Scheinman"

and seen Scheinman a number of times, most recently at Winter Jazz Fest at The City Winery NYC. She did a great set! 🕰 ♥ 8:39pm
doctorjazz:

She played this album (but the guitarist was Steve Cardenas, not Frisell) 🕰 ♥ 8:39pm
doctorjazz:

Boy, this doesn't sound like Hancock's, the rhythm is all changed, displaced...I like it!   8:49pm
Andrew in Toronto: What a fabulous show!
Peter, Thanks! 🕰 ♥ 8:50pm
doctorjazz: Oh, it's late, almost the end, (don't often make it this far), terriffic show, DJ Peter (loving this last set), thanks a bunch! ♥ 8:51pm

↳ Song: "Balance of Time" by "Artemis"

(a few years ago the NYC Winter Jazz Fest at The City Winery did a show featurig almost all women, many of these players were there). 🕰 ♥ 8:53pm
doctorjazz:

↳ DJ Peter @8:51

I've never quite taken to Radiohead, i've tried, they put me to sleep (not a bad thing if that's what you're trying to do, but not for listening to music...) I wanted to like them, have such a following, but... 🕰 ♥ 8:55pm
doctorjazz: Alright, nighty night all! 🕰 ♥ 8:55pm
tom tom the pipers son: hey thanks peter… do you think you’ll be in town for mana opening… duchamp exhibit at MOMA ♥ 8:57pm

DJ Peter:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:55

i do plan to visit in May and will check out Duchamp for sure. But cannot be there for the mana opening... how long will your stuff be up? 🕰 ♥ 9:05pm

↳ Song: "Dolphin Dance" by "Ahmad Jamal"

This version of Dolphin Dance seems weird to me. It’s a beautiful tune, so why pick this song if you want to go into a completely different direction? That is my opinion. 🕰 ♥ 8:04pm
Listener Gregory:

↳ Song: "Straighten Up and Fly Right" by "Yusef Lateef"

Humorous quote from Flying Home in Barron’s solo on Straighten Up and Fly Right. I enjoyed that. 🕰 ♥ 8:26pm
Listener Gregory:

↳ Song: "One Finger Snap (take 19)" by "Herbie Hancock"

Take 19—yikes! ♥ 8:40pm
DJ Peter:

↳ Listener Gregory @8:26

Van Gelder numbered all takes sequentially, so take 19 means it's the 19th performance of the session (not the 19th of that one tune).
the Blue Note discography does not give info on every take (e.g. if it's a false start or a break down, or if there's another composition that they tried but never released.)
FWIW the released version of "The Egg" was take 17. So we do know that they did complete takes of "Snap" and "Oliloqui Valley" early on, then completed "Cantaloupe Island" and "The Egg," then went back to the other two. (shrug) 🕰 ♥ 8:34pm
Listener Gregory:

↳ Song: "'Round Midnight" by "Herbie Hancock"

Kudos to Gil Evans, who did the arrangement for Miles that this is based on. 🕰 ♥ 9:03pm

I don’t remember a love story in Mutiny on the Bounty. Maybe when the crew gets to their island paradise?
Anyway, excellent show, DJP! Sorry I wasn’t here live.
