A jazz dominated show this week, with "experimental" music probably coming in second place. This edition also featured the first baby vocal ("If I could sing" by CaneFire) and a great starting sequence (the first three tracks above; throw in Demon Fuzz and it's an even better start), or so I think :-)
A reminder that Breaking The Tethers will be moving to a new time as of next week (July 5). The day will remain the same but the program will now run from noon to 2 pm.

Change to time
Just got the official word today that Breaking The Tethers will be changing times starting July 5, 2010. The day - Monday - will remain the same but the program will be taking place two hours later than its present slot. So, as of July, please listen for Breaking The Tethers beginning at noon on Mondays (on CJSW, 90.9 FM, www.cjsw.com, of course).
I should note that the program that formerly started at noon, Her Royal Opinion, will now be starting at 10 am on Mondays and will go to 11:30 am. The University of Calgary Students' Union program, So SU Me, will fill the spot between Tethers and Opinion.

"Ice cream man" - Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers (Rock 'n' roll with the modern lovers)
"Monstorous colossus" - Dan Berglund's Tonbruket (Dan Berglund's Tonbruket)
"These treasures will never befall you" - Darkthrone (Circle the wagons)
"Now and then" - Sandy Denny (Who knows where the time goes?)
"Epitah III: J-Mac (for Jackie McLean)" - Chad Eby (Broken shadows)
"Sissy wa wa" - Kropotkins (Five points crawl)
"Escapades for alto saxophone and orchestra: III. Joy ride" - North Carolina Symphony and Branford Marsalis (American spectrum)
"Big deal" - The Dead Milkmen (Stoney's extra stout (pig))
"Improv2" - Tetuzi Akiyama (Frontline, Ghent, Belgium, September 28, 2005)
"Elevate" - Tyler Hornby (A road to remember)
"Grand action" - John McLachlan (Contemporary new music from Ireland)
"Look what we have found" - Delaney & Bonnie (Home)
"Rachel & Cali" - Damien Jurado (Saint Bartlett)
"Sang with the tongue of an angel" - Sajia Sultana (Bengali winger)
"Little suicides" - Golden Palominos (Pure)
"Electric Aunt Jemima" - The Persuasions (Frankly a capella)
"The iron harvest" - This Quiet Army (Aftermath)
"Big black lake" - Emily Triggs (Magnolia buckskin)
"Sardaukar levenbrech" - Grimes (Geidi primes)

"A distant voice" - Sonny Simmons (Staying on the watch)
track 2 - Scratoa! (Live en San Anton, April 2008)
"Metal machine music, part I" - Lou Reed (Metal machine music)
Another "very varied" program this week, maybe the most diverse since the changes to Breaking The Tethers earlier in 2010. There was metal, folk, doo-wop, jazz (though much less jazz than usual), rock, and more, all culminating in the horrorshow that is Lou Reed's "Metal machine music".
More of the same next week, though perhaps with more of a jazz lean. Note that next week's show will be the last in the 10 am to noon time slot. Beginning July 5, Breaking The Tethers will appear at noon on Mondays.

"Better get another lighthouse" - Paul Dunmall-Chris Corsano (Identical sunsets)
"Tom Cruz" - Plants & Animals (La la land)
"Sarala" - Hank Jones meets Cheick-Tidiane Seck and the Mandinkas (Sarala)
"Rockport Sunday" - Tom Rush (The circle game)
"Field stones" - Boxharp (The green)
"Airstrip one" - Bobby Previte (The coalition of the willing)
"Ingratiated beam - leroy" - William Hooker Trio (Yearn for certainty)
"Momentum" - Brent Mah-Alex Goodman (Convergence)
"Cheerleaders on drugs" - Uncle Bonsai (The inessential Uncle Bonsai)
"Sandusky" - Uncle Tuepelo (March 16-20, 1992)
"Ting" - Chris Lightcap's Bigmouth (Deluxe)
"Tornado" - Ramin Rahimi & Friends (The pulse of Persia: Iranian rhythms - global influences)
"Tango loco" - Klaus Paier & Asja Valcic (A deux)
"Gris-gris gumbo ya-ya" - Dr. John (Gris gris)
"Pegasus" - Lars Danielsson (Tarantella)
"Tussock" - Ookpikk (Captain starlite)
"Nicaragua" - Jeff Dyer & Bill Brennan (Afterhours)
"Ready to go" - Stoning Mary (Stoning Mary)
"Flakes" - Ideal Bread (Transmit: vol. 2 of the music of Steve Lacy)
"Renmin park (revisited)" - Cowboys Junkies (Renmin park)
"Armitage shanks" - The Claudia Quintet with Gary Versace (Royal toast)
Everything about this show fell into place smoothly. The music came together nicely and I didn't trip over the board or my tongue too much (and I didn't care when I did!).
Music-wise, the platter, as usual, featured plenty of jazz along with a wide variety of other treats. There was a definite "folky" vibe to the proceedings, as can be seen in the "Uncle" songs, "Rockport Sunday", and a few other things. There was also a tribute tune, "Sarala", in honor of Hank Jones, the last of the Jones brothers of jazz (along with Thad and Elvin), who passed away on May 16, 2010.
