"Back through the glass the other way: Handy is framed, Jesse is once again animated.":
This photo looks through a pane of glass, which supplies interesting floating out-of-focus reflections.  A bearded man with rectangular black-metal-framed eyeglasses and a cap is framed by rectangular reflected elements; another bearded man, wearing headphones, looks toward the camera while apparently in mid-speech. "Phone Room for Techtonic with Mark Hurst and co-host Jesse Jarnow":
A man holds a traditional landline telephone handset to the side of his face and listens intently while consulting a laptop computer. "by the light of the laptop":
A woman with an artfully messy bun, wearing a Nordic-looking patterned sweater, sits in the phone room and works at a laptop computer.  The computer's screen bathes her face in cooler light than the room's ambient illumination.  Colorful, quirkily festive decorations are visible out of focus on the wall behind her. "Phone Room: a sheaf of pledges and a room full of volunteers":
A bearded man wearing headphones tilts his head back slightly while eyeing a sheaf of papers he holds up in front of himself.

A photo of me and Roman standing in front of a blue curtain. We're standing back to back; she's looking towards the camera and I'm kind of staring off into space ...

Tonight I'm racing to WFMU to hang out with Roman from midnight to 3am on her fantastic overnight show Ear Racing! It's week 2 of WFMU's fundraiser and we need all the money you can muster, mister! Here's the link to support WFMU and Ear Racing: pledge.wfmu.org/donate/E2

"Handy takes a pledge.":
A bearded man with black metal-framed glasses, wearing a flat cap, holds a traditional landline telephone receiver to his head and apparently speaks into it.  His hand which is not holding the phone holds a ballpoint pen, poised to write.  In the background, out of focus, a bearded man holds some sheets of paper and speaks into a paper-towel-wrapped microphone. "background: co-host Jesse Jarnow":
In the foreground, out of focus, a bearded man with black metal-framed glasses, wearing a flat cap, holds a traditional landline telephone receiver to his head and apparently speaks into it. In the background, in focus, a bearded man looks up and approximately in the direction of the camera. "Busy Phone Room":
We see three people at various distances from the camera doing phone-room-related activities (with one phone instrument visible, and two arms reaching across the table mirroring each other). "Mark Hurst in Studio B #2":
A man in a black tee shirt, wearing black headphones and sporting a black plastic Casio watch, smiles and gazes toward the left of the frame, past a paper-towel-wrapped microphone on an articulating arm.

"Jesse is animated":
A bearded man before a paper-towel-wrapped microphone has his hands (one of which holds a sheaf of papers) raised as he looks and apparently speaks with animation toward someone not seen off to the viewer's right. "Mark Hurst's co-host Jesse Jarnow":
A bearded man before a paper-towel-wrapped microphone holds up some papers in his hands and reads from them with a smile. "focus":
A man with a close-cropped salt-and-pepper beard and a shaved head resides in the left part of this photo and looks with intense focus off toward something apparently happening past the photo's right edge.  A woman with an artfully messy bun and a patterned alpine-looking sweater resides in the right part of the photo's frame, slightly out of focus, and gazes down. "Mark Hurst in Studio B":
A man in a black tee shirt, wearing black headphones and sporting a black plastic Casio watch, smiles and gazes toward the left of the frame, past a paper-towel-wrapped microphone on an articulating arm.

Observations of Deviance with David Mittleman presents Way Way Out: Quiet Storm Avant-Garde Jazz (1948-1965), the cool side of out Jazz on vintage vinyl. Eighteen vintage vinyl tracks from OoD host David Mittleman's collection. The mix traces the secret history of Free Jazz, the filp-side to Fire Music. Rare tracks by Sun Ra, Buddy Collette's Swinging Shepherds, MJT + 3, Jimmy Giuffre and more.

The cover art is by noted designer Darryl Norsen. He's designed cover art for labels like Eremite, Numero Group, Light in the Attic and many more. His art work "flips" the cover of the MJT + 3 album, "Daddy-O Presents MJT + 3" (Argo 1957). Darryl generously donated his time/work to this project. Enjoy!

Way Way Out: Quiet Storm Avant-Garde Jazz (1948-1965)
