Overheard in the control room last night from the irrepressible, beautifully honest Ray Fallon (our beloved engineer at WGBH): “Why do you have three good guests tonight? Normally you have two goods guests and one knucklehead.”
The irrepressible, beautifully dogged David Miller emailed Walter F. Murphy last night and nailed him for tonight’s program. Murphy is the Princeton law professor who found himself on the terrorist watch list. Murphy is a veteran, he’s conservative (he supported Alito for the Court and he’s against Roe vs. Wade) and now he’s one angry citizen.
Chris booked Eddie Palmieri for tomorrow night. I pointed out that if he had written in his post something along the lines of “Jazz is dead. Latin music is the new jazz” it might have got more attention. In any case, this is the show and the conversation we’re interested in pursuing with Palmieri and Ned Sublette, author of Cuba and Its Music. Chris will throw in Robin’s notion that maybe it’s hip hop or reggaeton that have replaced jazz among young people. Weigh in here.
Said with Love…of course!
– Ray Fallon
Love indeed. Lots and lots of love.
You the man.
Hey a new game! Spot the knuckle head ..
No, i get the humor. Still … funny.
