Hi rp in g! Always good to have you along for the trip. More groovy new stuff to come, and a few old favourites too. Some great spiritual jazz coming up in hour three, and something from AC/DC by way of China!

Hi Rob, Just got home from my Sunday run and tuned in. Thunderstruck on a Chinese harp—why not? Listen to CKCU, keep an open mind!

2:18 PM, July 24th, 2022
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Hey hey, Shelly Ann. Nice to have you here. Thunderstruck will come blasting through in about, oh, ten minutes or so when Anoushka Shankar and friends are finished. Good times!

Oh, I’m sure that Clarice will love it, too. She’s all stretched out enjoying Anoushka and friends.

Manmohan
Grooviness. Thanks for the soundtrack on this dreary afternoon.

3:27 PM, July 24th, 2022
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Hi Manmohan! Grooviness indeed. Happy to provide a little audio sunshine to beat back the clouds.

3:32 PM, July 24th, 2022
hb
tres cool now... almost "far out"...

3:37 PM, July 24th, 2022
PeterB
KER &%@# WOW! Pharaoh Sanders on now i do believe. me and da Ms banging away on any flat surface. And our collective of drums that have adopted us recently. BEATS OUT THE WAZOO as always!

3:37 PM, July 24th, 2022
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
yep, hb and pb: we are in far out territory now with Pharoah Sanders. This right now is SUmmun, Bukmun, Umyun. Awesome.

3:40 PM, July 24th, 2022
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
...and happy drumming!

3:40 PM, July 24th, 2022
Manmohan
RobB, thanks for reminding me. While perusing the collection of a local record seller in his house, I found a copy of Deaf Dumb Blind (Summun Bukmun Umyun) with CKCU written on the cover. When I pointed it out he apologized for not having noted that and asked me if I could return it to the station library. It's not a great copy buit still plays reasonably well. I'll bring it back in next time I'm in the studio. I have my own copy on wax and it's a great sounding record.

hb
I tap the skins....but not like ....in 'Solitude';-)

3:52 PM, July 24th, 2022
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Manmohan, that might have been from that guy who used to raid the library here. How low can you go? Stealing music from a community radio station. Anyway, I was diggin' through the stacks here for what to play after this, and I can tell you, we don't have it, so that's good news. Strangely, we have two copies of Jewels of Thought.

3:52 PM, July 24th, 2022
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
hb: rock on! we're not here to judge.

3:55 PM, July 24th, 2022
Manmohan
Yes, I note that as well. Jewels is a great record as well but not as strong as Deaf. Indeed, it may very well have been that dude, who davE told me last week, had passed away a while back. Maybe, karma? Ooooh, we're back to another Pharoah album! :-)

3:56 PM, July 24th, 2022
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Journey to the One! Yeah, davE told me the same. Sad case.

3:57 PM, July 24th, 2022
Chris I.
Thanks Rob!

3:59 PM, July 24th, 2022
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
A pleasure! And thanks to you all for tuning in!
