Brown Rice is the name of the Don Cherry album I was grasping for there, in reference to the Mop Mop cut.

Hooo boy! I hope not, robert p. I'm listening right now, but over the Internet. That usually keeps working even if there's a problem with the transmitter.

Eeeeep! Nothing but static on the air! You're quite right. I was wondering why I was getting less than the usual listener engagement here. I'll alert the authorities!
