Today on WFMU: On The Frow Show w/Jesse Jarnow: Sleepy Doug Shaw (aka Highlife) departed far too soon in May. Though he released no full-lengths, Jesse will celebrate him with a tribute drawn from his discography of EPs, Soundcloud loosies, and live tapes (9 p.m. ET).
It's sad to see Ardent shut down. Ardent was the most important and successful studio in Memphis, beginning in the late 1960s. I spent a lot of time there and have many fine memories. I loved that the studio and my hometown were a magnet for so many artists.

the frow show returns! emitting new music & decent-as-possible vibrations from now 'til midnight ET on listener-supported @wfmu.bsky.social, with an extended tribute to the late great doug shaw at around 10ish. wfmu.org/playlists/JJ...
the frow show returned to the friendly airwaves of @wfmu.bsky.social last night, including a long tribute to doug shaw, plus excellent new music & a little bit of excellent old music, too. wfmu.org/playlists/JJ...
well, the bummer news is that william tyler had to cancel, but the opposite-of-bummer news is that a truly wig-flipping replacement has consented to blow our minds instead. come to @mamatriedbk.bsky.social tomorrow, peel slowly, & see! plus our pal ted barron's spinning 45s all night.
