Welcome to Monday!

Hi Dan. Looking forward to the JC Players feature.

Hey Bri! Going through the Elvin stuff his week just knocked me out. Excited to tackle the other, and I'm throwing in Alice for a bonus on the fifth week...

Hello Dan 20 plus years of listening to DB Jazz hours.First time while playing basketball

I think the next set will help your jump shot.

Truly ecstatic about this week's playlist....

I should run the Four Corners offense.

Strong vertical ascension....

Did you know C and C s basketball Jones was a tribute to Elvin Jones?

He's always one our minds....

"on"

Particularly juicy Shipp/Parker/Dickey release....

Dan pulling out all his Hall of Fame performers today.

Hi Dan

Hello Vaughn How's Halloween weather look.I have to take an eager 5 year old out.

Hey Vaughn! Good to see ya!

It's true Patrick, all my favorites have just stellar new releases this week. I've exhausted myself gorging on the harvest this past week...

Been awhile since I've done an artist profile for the hour, for the first decade or so I'm profiled just about every jazz figure from the mid-sixties on I could think of (okay, maybe not Najee...) inspiring to hear all of Elvin's work together,...

Time to go home.Sadly my jump shot nowhere near as good as DBS playlist.

Don't worry. It's looks that matter.

To add insult to injury a bird defecated on my basketball in mid flight. Cue...May the Bluebird of Happiness song...

A blessing from Larry Bird, no doubt...

Nice of Miles to add those dissonant sounds there...

Apparently Elvin Jones was cast in a musical western Zachariah?never heard of this movie.

I have a copy a few feet away. Written by the Firesign Theater guys, "A Psychedelic Western" from 1970, I think. You should check out Elvin the gunfighter's big scene on youtube, at least...

Will do.looks like Don Johnson was in it.

Johnson is in the midnight classic A BOY AND HIS DOG with script by Harlan Ellison as well.;..

People might be right to complain I don't play enough Wayne Shorter...

Please aren't going to buy my, "I'm more into Alan Shorter" line forever!

bonus bonus weeks... Eric Dolphy? Pharoah Sanders? It could go on and on. Great set here

Oh yeah Rashied Ali too. What great bands

JuJu is so much in the Coltraneb world wow. Very much Shorter's smoothness in writing and phrases but those moods and tones ... so similar to JCQ

As soon as your back in studio I will be leading a more Wayne Shorter protest outside the studio.

Always a different faction protesting my playlists as I came in each week. I often used disguises.

Just double-checked, Charnett Moffatt on the bass here, Laswell just produces. Great to hear Sharrock play with Pharoah, Charnett and Elvin, artists of his stature...

Thanks Dan for some reason hearing Bill Frisell always puts a smile on my face.Really enjoy seeing him live.

Frissell and Lovano both cut records around the same time with Dave Holland and Elvin in their trios...

Some Malkmus for Mickey of The Sprawl....

Aww yeah! We are rocking! Leather McWhip!

Giant Sand way back lp. Love that. Low key vocal under all that fuzz almost sounded like you were singing along on your live mic!

Recent bargain bin find, the Giant Sand....

Howe Gelb still putting out interesting stuff. Morphing along the way. Love his sound and ideas

I've liked what I heard. Since he sounded like an old codger right from the beginning he must have aged into it gracefully

Crazy bout that Rubinos too, bought the vinyl this week...

Old Codger that's your buddy Sun Ra ologist.Irwin Chusid pseudonym

More weird choices to come....

Oooh this is great!

Ha yeah! Howe Gelb has had that sandy dusty sound for a long time.

"Sheba" classic instrumental;

I'm a sucker for this choral stuff, love that positive collective feeling.

Sheba is grade A geator approved.

The Geator calls every week and tells me he hates my show again.

Just make sure you don't dine with him

Oh, I got stories....

Stick around for the coda and geez, I forgot to mention to y'all about the pledge.wprb.com thing...

Thanks Dan will send out soon.Extra great show today

Thanks to all, next week!
