1. 'TRANE!

play that dirty, bitter "Alabama" from the Village Vanguard set!

[punpirate]

3. Yeah, that's good...

... failing that, a little Lester Young, huh?

Cheers.

[progmom]

27. didja hear it?

[punpirate]

39. Umm, just thought I was doing a favor...

... for your listeners with the suggestion... was listening to WKAR and got busy with replies here and forgot to switch over... mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa....

[progmom]

10. i got yer trane right here, buddy

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

2. I see you are still participating in your therapy

with Ella...howzabout some Keeley Smith

[progmom]

4. i'll see if the station has any keely

if not, i will dig her up at home and bring her in next time. ;)

[immoderate]

5. Hi Progmom, how about Epistrophy?

Don't know if you're in a Monk mood. I always liked the one with Johnny Griffin.

But whatever -- you seem to be able to program somehow even without my suggestions.

Got any Kenton?

6. Mose Allison

Have a great show!

:hi:

[progmom]

29. yes ma'am

[Rabrrrrrr]

7. Play whatever you like best!

And dedicate it to me! :woohoo:

YAY for progmom!!

[Spider Jerusalem]

8. I'm guessing Ken Vandermark and the Gold Sparkle Trio...

aren't "straight ahead", eh? (I'd love to hear "Marcella Variations No. 1" from "Brooklyn Cantos" if you've got it).

If not...the solo piano version of "Greensleeves" from George Shearing's album "My Ship" would be good.

[Rabrrrrrr]

9. Woo hoo! I'm listening to progmom with my wireless headphones

while I clean!

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

[parasim]

11. Great show once again...

Perhaps Kenny Drew?

... or Tete Montoliu?

Thanks for providing a couple hours of straight-ahead coolness every week!

[billyskank]

12. Oscar Peterson

Hymn To Freedom

pretty please! (If you have it).

[progmom]

26. nice

i will try.

[billyskank]

83. Not possible, huh?

Thanks for trying! :loveya:

[progmom]

90. i'm so sorry - the show kind of got away from me

that lesbian set kind of hijacked the rest of the show ;)

[billyskank]

92. Haha! Things like Lesbian sets definitely need to be planned in advance!

:D

[Misunderestimator]

13. Wooohooooo!!!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=3301136&mesg_id=3301159

:hi:

[progmom]

14. erm....i am a terrible human being

[Misunderestimator]

15. Somehow, I will recover from this trauma...

and forgive you :cry:

[progmom]

18. i will play you some weill

:rofl:

[progmom]

20. it's not the finest weill

but will it do?

[Misunderestimator]

21. Well.... if it's not the finest no...

Weill CAN suck. :)

(On edit... you sweetie... that was good!)

[progmom]

24. twas a teensy bit vile in terms of weill

dee dee bridgewater didn't quite do him justice if you ask me

[Misunderestimator]

31. Still... it worked.

I'm just dying of curiosity to hear Marianne Faithfull do Weill... should be interesting.

[CanuckAmok]

[progmom]

41. up next!

[GOPisEvil]

17. Woohoo! Back from the bank, and I want my jazz fix!

[Misunderestimator]

44. No....

No... you said it well... in your radio voice is all.... never mind... I make no sense anymore :cry: :cry:

[progmom]

47. LOL

I'm trying to come up with another reason to say Alladin. I used to have a friend who would feed me weird words to work into my patter during my show.

[Misunderestimator]

49. Oh.... then I have another...

"Lesbian"

:rofl: :evilgrin:

[billyskank]

[billyskank]

60. Hahahaha!

[Misunderestimator]

61. OMG!!!! She did it!!

I was afraid I'd miss it as I was in the kitchen toasting a poptart!

:yourock:

Say it again!

[Zuni]

64. I was thinking "how is she going to do it?"

I like this Blondie jazz stuff though :D

[Zuni]

62. bwahahahahahaha

:spray:

[GOPisEvil]

66. I damn-near just fell out of my chair!

:rofl:

[Misunderestimator]

67. Oh... I like this arrangement too...

Very cool! :loveya:

Lesbians rock! :D

[Zuni]

55. a double dog dare

[Zuni]

51. How about "Bratwurst"

:D

[Misunderestimator]

56. LOL.... How about Wienerschnitzel?

:spray:

[Zuni]

58. well how about

Peaches and wienerschnitzel in one sentence? :o

[Misunderestimator]

71. Peaches, wienerschnitzel and lesbians!

Now THAT would be a challenge. :D

[biscodawg]

75. you just said lesbian

rawr

[progmom]

78. i did???

:wow:

[Zuni]

32. Hi Progmom

:hi:

how about some Charlie Parker? "Mohawk" maybe?

[progmom]

43. i played Bird last hour

my son had my husband call up and remind me that i had forgotten to play it for him. :rofl:

[Zuni]

45. Shoot--I missed it. I had to run into work for a little bit this morning

How about some Horace Silver..."Song for My father"?
Progspawn has good taste in Jazz! :D
:hi:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

46. Is it too soon to request H2O again?

[Zuni]

48. How about Revolution Will Not be Televised?

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

53. great idea!

Or even Winter IN America

[Zuni]

86. here we go

:smoke:

[democracyindanger]

59. The world needs more Django and Jobim.

[Rabrrrrrr]

63. A lesbian set! Holy crow!!

Is that even legal?

:-)

[progmom]

65. congress will be pulling all funding from public radio

:rofl:

[Zuni]

68. Big Ups Progmom---"she is a lesbian"

:applause:

:rofl:

[Misunderestimator]

69. Oh yeah!! And it certainly makes this song all the more appealing

knowing that... :)

[Zuni]

72. I could not believe she fit it in

Very clever, that Progmom. I knew she was going to try to fit that word 'lesbian' in, but I couldn't figure out how....

now, if she would only say "bratwurst" :D

:hi:

good song too, btw. I love Blondie

[GOPisEvil]

70. Crap! I have to leave.

Stupid friends and their baby-furniture buying!

A great show as usual. :hi:

[Misunderestimator]

73. What's this piece playing now... the piano piece?

On edit... apparently "All my love" :D

[Misunderestimator]

74. LMFAO!!!!

You enjoyed that too much!!! I heard that little chuckle when you said "LESBIAN" AGAIN! :bounce:

[progmom]

77. it is important to always sound like one is smiling when one is on the air

;)

[Misunderestimator]

79. Yes, that is important.

:P

[immoderate]

76. Sounds like Mulligan/Monk

Not much more straight-ahead than that.:bounce:

--IMM

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

80. I love the piece that is playing now...guitar

[Misunderestimator]

81. I was just going to say the same thing!

I LOVED IT! Was reminiscent of one of those bands we heard at the Puerto Rican festival, no?

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

82. Yeah..I'm gonna pick it up :)

and she's gonna play my song next :)

[Misunderestimator]

85. The Liz Wright?

I Like it!!

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

87. No the Frank and Joe one

just ordered it online :D

[Misunderestimator]

88. Ah... cool!

Put that sucker on your ipod!

[progmom]

89. i kind of thought you would dig it

:)

it has Janis Siegel on it as well. i am trying hard to convince her to do a whole album with those guys next go around. i might just have her convinced. :)

[Misunderestimator]

84. Is Liz Wright a Lesbian?

'Cause really... you oughtta end with a lesbian. :loveya:

[progmom]

91. i'm having lunch with her on monday

would you like me to ask her? :P

[Misunderestimator]

93. Absolutely! And tell her I like her voice...

whether or not she is :)

[progmom]

94. maybe it would be rude to just come right and ask

is there something that would tip me off? something lesbians always order for lunch? a certain special handshake? :P

[Misunderestimator]

95. Oh, I am NOT serious...

I wouldn't ask her... but LynneSin could give you tips on that. :) She basically just says "Are you a lesbian?"

And the handshake thing.... SOME women I've met tend to grip and hold just a tad longer than normal. And those limp-fish handshakes some women give? Never met a lesbian with a handshake like that. ;)

[progmom]

96. i wasn't serious either, you goof!

:P

[Misunderestimator]

97. Well, you never know... :)

:loveya: Loved your show... Have a great weekend! :hi:

[progmom]

98. some of my best friends are

...lesbians. :P

you have a great weekend too. after i get my playlist posted and i get my ass out of here, i have to accompany my dear husband to my inlaws' to celebrate my mother-in-law's mother's 98th birthday. :banghead:

[Maddy McCall]

99. Do you have Satchmo's "Rocking Chair?"

I love that song. :D

[usedtobesick]

100. damn
