Word Jazz VI w/ Ken Nordine (A “Cheek-In-Tongues,” “Fill-In-Shows,” Installment)

WFMU Playlist & Interactive Live Chat (The Digital Salon)

(This show was a last-minute fill-in. As such, our “chat” started at another location, and edited at the Playlist / Chat link above. We started over here:

WFMU Playlist & Interactive Live Chat (The Digital Salon, Where We Started this week)

More words of wisdom from Mr. Nordine, as we continue to work our way through the Word Jazz series of radio shows. With word play, music, and a general overview of Ken’s past work, this show is a beautiful example of the possibility of radio, if you are really willing to go the extra mile.

 

 

Enjoy!

More Nordine Nuggets, as we continue our chronological overview of “Word Jazz,” whenever we are asked to cover for Barno and “Cheek In Tongues.” We share a few “how did you find him?” comments in the Digital Salon, and we work through 60 minutes of vintage Nordine, as he cleverly offers improvised word salad in the best possible way.

WFMU Playlist & Interactive Live Chat (The Digital Salon)

We make another nod to Nordine, as we continue to explore the classic Word Jazz series of broadcasts.

This week, Barno was out again, so it made sense to grab two more installments of this program, and give it a throw. The Digital Salon was pretty lively, as Hot Dog – and the pros and cons of Chicago Style – rapidly became the subject of conversation.

 

Enjoy!
