Tune in Now!

chuckyd4 · December-21st-2003, 07:27 PM

Come on people! Im trying to get more people to listen to my radio shows... tonight (Sunday) until 1AM, I will be playing all kinds of out stuff - the perfect playlist to drive away annoying in-laws staying for the holidays.

You can find the link at my site - check out the other radio shows we have too.

Right now, I'm playing a cut off the Art Ensemble's latest ECM disc, up next is a cut from William Parker's Scrapbook , etc etc. Tune in folks, no special software required...

CYMBALHOLIC · December-21st-2003, 10:22 PM

Indeed! Loud and cranking over here in Mississippi!
Keep it coming
Chad

(REALLY enjoying the show...you can never beat "D Trad, That's What" ...right on!)

crawjo · December-21st-2003, 10:47 PM

I'm listening, man. Interesting stuff!

chuckyd4 · January-1st-2004, 08:40 PM

Up!

After a brief hiatus, we are back... check it out!

Cem · January-1st-2004, 09:05 PM

Just tuned in...great mix of classics! Thank you!

[edit] It kept cutting out on me. Was it my connection or your server? Otherwise, great show!

Dr Dave · January-1st-2004, 10:18 PM

Can't get a solid connection. What I got sounded pretty doggone good, though.

chuckyd4 · January-1st-2004, 11:49 PM

Hmm... don't know... sorry guys.

Went away to a movie... might be my computer (we're in a transitional phase - getting it up onto a more reliable server). I'll be here to see what's happening for the rest of the evening.

Thanks for listening, though!

EDIT: I see what you guys are talking about. I haven't seen that before. I'm trying to get in touch with my brother (the tech guy) to see what's up... I'll keep you updated.

DOUBLE EDIT (Friday Afternoon): Well, whatever the problem was, it seems to be fixed now, so I'm going to do a special show all afternoon and evening today to make up for it - I'll be replaying last night's playlist on repeat (it's about 3 hrs long), so enjoy. And keep letting me know if you run into any problems.

chuckyd4 · January-8th-2004, 08:33 PM

Up-

Everything's working great now... it's all classic stuff tonight, too... take a gander!

Ron Thorne · January-9th-2004, 12:08 AM

I'm checkin' it out right now in The Greatland, bro ... Larry Young - Visions. So far, so good, with no buffering on a 56k dialup.

More, later.

chuckyd4 · January-11th-2004, 05:26 PM

Since some actually seemed interested in this... I thought I'd go ahead and post the play list for tonight's show (Sunday 1/11) - this will give an idea of the Sunday shows, and then I'll try to post a representative list from a Tuesday and Thursday show as well, to give a good idea of all of them. Remember they are weekly... so if you like a particular type of "jazz", you should tune in on that day each week.

)

17) "Gee Wee (a.k.a. GW)" by Eric Dolphy - Stockholm Sessions (Enja)

Also, we'd love to see some more people comment on the reviews!

PS. Oh yeah... I should mention that I decided to go ahead and start this one early, so it'll be on from now until tomorrow morning, no matter what the schedule says.

Cem · January-11th-2004, 06:37 PM

Great playlist & connection today. Cheers, chuck!

Dibble · January-11th-2004, 08:51 PM

crawjo · January-11th-2004, 09:44 PM

Hey, I'm listening to it right now and really digging it. And thank you for the set list! That is very helpful for me to know what I'm listening to. I really liked "Lanquidity" by Sun Ra. Very cool stuff. Keep up the good work and keep the music coming.

you probably know this already by now but, it's "Little Pocket Sized Demons" off Threadgill's Too Much Sugar For A Dime

scuse me, i gotta go listen now...

nice job,

Mark

chuckyd4 · January-12th-2004, 08:54 AM

Hehehe... wow, sorry Mark... that's pretty cool to get called out by one of the musicians, though! Just one of those things where you're reading one word and it comes out the fingers another. And anyone who can find it, go buy this album immediately.... Mark's solo on the track listed here kills!

Thanks for listenin.

Douglas · January-12th-2004, 03:28 PM

I caught a bit last night as well - good job.

If you want to start a little earlier next week as well, you wont find me complaining

chuckyd4 · January-13th-2004, 12:07 PM

Okay, so top 2 requests seem to be:

1) Start earlier/keep it on longer

2) Post playlists.

As for #2, we are working on it... gonna try to write a program that will automatically post it to the site as the radio show plays, with links to buy the discs they come from. This should happen within the next couple of weeks.

WRT #1, I have just officially updated the schedule. The shows will now start at 4 PM on the appropriate day, run on their 3 hour loop and keep going late into the night.

Thanks for listening and enjoy!

crawjo · January-13th-2004, 12:45 PM

chuckyd4,

Thanks! I think if you could put up the play lists automatically on the site, that would be very helpful, and the links to buy the disks is also a great idea, except that now I'm going to be tempted too much!

chuckyd4 · January-18th-2004, 02:57 PM

Nick - that'd be the one Chapin album to get and among those I've heard that version of "Ask Me Now" remains my favorite - what a fitting tone he has for that tune.
