	🥁 ♥ 3:46pm Brian in UK: Hello Larry & friends. Never sure what Proby was doing with his voice.
	🥁 ♥ 3:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @3:46 Hey Brian! I love Proby's, uh...idiosyncratic style
	🥁 ♥ 3:47pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:44 Yeah, like Anyway You Want me, BOTH that and this covered by my American Breed Chicago buddies.
	🥁 ♥ 3:47pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:47 Nice job here, but hate how he did Beatles song they gave him.
	♥ 3:47pm Michael 98145: Listen, my children, and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere, On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-Five: Hardly a man is now alive Who remembers that famous day and year.
	🥁 ♥ 3:48pm Brian in UK: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:47 Larry, impressed that you can spell idiosyncrastic!
	🥁 ♥ 3:48pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Roses and Rainbows" by "Danny Hutton" Pretty good regional hit and cool pic sleeve--rare for HBR label to have PS.
	🥁 ♥ 3:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:47 I've never heard that couplet with the date attached!
	🥁 ♥ 3:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @3:48 Oh, I'm a spelling FOOL
	🥁 ♥ 3:49pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @3:48 Im more of a sarcastic idiot, I think.
	♥ 3:50pm Michael 98145: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:47 So through the night rode Paul Revere; And so through the night went his cry of alarm To every Middlesex village and farm,— A cry of defiance, and not of fear, A voice in the darkness, a knock at the door, And a word that shall echo forevermore!
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm Brian in UK: ↳ WLSClark @3:49 How sweet to be an idiot; as Neil Innes sang.
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @3:50 Always look on the bright side of life!
	♥ 3:51pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Magic In the Air" by "Cher" Back when Cher looked like Cher
	🥁 ♥ 3:51pm WLSClark: Took Jill to Cher play at out theater last week. They had 3 different age Chers in it and they talked to each other and occasionally sang together as the life was presented.
	🥁 ♥ 3:52pm Erica: ↳ WLSClark @3:50 And on the bright side of death too.
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm WLSClark: ↳ Erica @3:52 Haha. Never looked at that side! ;)
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm WLSClark: ↳ WLSClark @3:53 Well, at least not until Trump came along. Ugh
	🥁 ♥ 3:54pm Funky16Corners: I'm working on an "early Cher" show
	🥁 ♥ 3:54pm Brian in UK: Cher sings Phil. Whodatthoughtit. Not me.
	♥ 3:54pm Michael 98145: ↳ WLSClark @3:53 🤢
	🥁 ♥ 3:54pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "There But For Fortune" by "Cher" Phil Ochs--genius with troubles.
	♥ 3:55pm Michael 98145: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:54 Looking forward to that
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:54 Absolutely
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Brian in UK: ↳ WLSClark @3:54 I still get so frustrated that he took his life. Does not go away.
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:55 I wonder if Sonny ever met Phil? BOTH very driven by popularity.
	🥁 ♥ 3:57pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:56 Sonny worked with Spector a LOT. He and Nino Tempo are two of the biggest acolytes
	🥁 ♥ 3:57pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @3:56 Indeed. So sad. actually, I guess Sonny did meet Phil because I have all 3 on a TV show together--Merv Griffin maybe?
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Funky16Corners: Sonny started as a song plugger for Specialty records, then he and Cher both worked in the studio with Spector
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:57 No, sorry, am talking of Sonny and Phil Ochs.
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:58 Oh, I have no idea if they ever met
	🥁 ♥ 4:00pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:58 Yeah, I knew that. Phil Ochs sings 2 songs on MURRAY THE K show with S&C as guests too on TV that I have. When done, Murray comes out and talks to Phil and you can tell Phil is holding back because he thinks this is stupid.
	🥁 ♥ 4:01pm doctorjazz: ↳ WLSClark @3:54 I've mentioned this on the boards somewhere, but I saw Phil Ochs in some Village Club back in the day. The club was packed-Ochs hardly played, he spoke, seemed both depressed and confused. I wasn't shocked when I heard later that he took his life.
	🥁 ♥ 4:01pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Sandy" by "Ronny and the Daytonas" Beautiful song.
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Sandy" by "Ronny and the Daytonas" Did Gary Usher have a hand in this recording?
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm WLSClark: ↳ doctorjazz @4:01 I can see that. So much politics, but sometimes over the top?
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm WLSClark: larry are these your fave songs? I missed the start.
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:02 Ochs was bipolar, and it got worse as the years wore on.
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:02 These are all records that IMHO take the Wall of Sound concept in better directions
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:02 He did not. This is straight out of Tennessee!
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:03 I see. You are right!
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: Some of the best imitation Brian Wilson ever committed to vinyl
	♥ 4:05pm Michael 98145: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:04 i hear that
	🥁 ♥ 4:11pm WLSClark: i LOVE Beverly's "Happy New Year"
	🥁 ♥ 4:15pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Heroes and Villains" by "Beach Boys" Great song, but the 45 sounded kinda cloudy sounding back when it was new.
	🥁 ♥ 4:16pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:15 Brian, another disciple of the Wall of Sound
	🥁 ♥ 4:16pm Funky16Corners: Often working with the exact same bunch of musicians
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Heroes and Villains" by "Beach Boys" When I hear that whistle noise, makes me think of Spike Jones circa Cocktails for Two.
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:16 Yes indeed.
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Heroes and Villains" by "Beach Boys" Love this (wanted to clicky-star, but already clicky-starred)!
	♥ 4:18pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Heroes and Villains" by "Beach Boys" kind of a forgotten track ...
	4:18pm bobob plasticland: Hey Larry Great Show Great Music ...!!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm WR: ↳ Song: "Heroes and Villains" by "Beach Boys" I like this so much that I break my general pattern of not clicky star a recording that I have a copy (or two or three) of. But it is such a great recording.
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm Funky16Corners: ↳ bobob plasticland @4:18 Thanks bobob!
	🥁 ♥ 4:19pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:17 It reminds me of when Brian uses that giant chromatic harmonica. It has a funny sound to it!
	🥁 ♥ 4:19pm WLSClark: BOBOB! You're alright!!! :)
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: Speaking of that harmonica!
	🥁 ♥ 4:22pm Funky16Corners: Banjo!
	🥁 ♥ 4:22pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:20 I dont remember when I bought this LP, but I remember when I drove to the store in 80s to finally get the CD the day it came out! Totally stoked.
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm WLSClark: ↳ WR @4:18 What do you think of the long Smile version? Its a bit much to me.
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:23 I prefer the original
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:23 Me too.
	♥ 4:25pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Land of 1,000 Dances" by "Nino Tempo and April St... fun !
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Land of 1,000 Dances" by "Nino Tempo and April St... These two really surprise me how they were older hitmakers in 60s, but broke thru. One of my first 45s was Deep Purple which I loved.
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:25 Deep Purple is a fave of mine as well
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "All Strung Out" by "Nino Tempo and April Stevens" These WW songs are just SO great! I was lucky to do some work on their Varese CD reissue of it back in 90s.
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:26 Oneof my all time favorite albums
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:26 How about that B side title? OH MY. That was so funny!
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:27 The flip of this one?
	🥁 ♥ 4:29pm Erica: ↳ Song: "You'll Be Needing Me Baby" by "Nino Tempo and Apr... Beautiful song by Nino and April.
	🥁 ♥ 4:34pm Funky16Corners: This one covered in the UK by the Mindbenders
	🥁 ♥ 4:36pm WLSClark: Sorry, had to step away. Was talking bout flip of Deep Purple in SMALL print on 45. Title: "I've Been Carrying A Torch For You So Long That I Burned A Great Big Hole In My Heart"
	🥁 ♥ 4:36pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:36 That's hilarious!
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "World Of Dreams" by "Cake" Who produced the Cake LP? Certainly Wall of Sound SOUND.
	🥁 ♥ 4:40pm WLSClark: larry, I found the Sonny &Cher with phil Ochs on Murray the K show. I can send later as a transfer.
	🥁 ♥ 4:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:38 Credited to Charlie Greene and Brian Stone, more likely actually produced by Harold Battiste, Mac Rebennack and Doc Siegel
	♥ 4:40pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Off and Running" by "Lesley Gore" Did Lesley cover the Mindbenders? Or vice-versa?
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @4:40 Written by Toni Wine and Carole Bayer (Sager) so I'm going with Lesley first
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "River Deep Mountain High" by "Nilsson" First hearing of Ike & Tina got my attention. And the second & third!
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm WLSClark: ↳ David Shortell @4:40 I THINK Mindbenders covered after. Not sure, tho.
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm Brian in UK: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:41 Mindbenders also did Wine's Groovy Kind of Love?
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:40 Seems like Charlie Green worked with Sonny & Cher too?
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:42 They managed Sonny and Cher and a bunch of other acts. I addressed them at length during my marathon show about my premium
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm WLSClark: anyone ever see the 1967 Pandemonium BOX LP set that promoted the LP? I saw it way back in70s one time, but did not buy. Stupid!
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:43 I thought maybe so!
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm doctorjazz: Almost the end, went fast, thanks Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:44 NO! I wish I had that!
	🥁 ♥ 4:45pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:44 A couple of killers yet to come!
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Brian in UK: Nice work, Larry.
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:44 had photos and such inside. Kinda like the Donovan box set thing in 67 style. Gotta go ahead of your great theme song, sorry. Bye!
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:46 Thanks Brian!
	🥁 ♥ 4:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:46 Bye Clark!
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Some Velvet Morning" by "Nancy Sinatra and Lee Ha... This song always intrigues me. It's like 2 songs combined.
	♥ 4:48pm Michael 98145: Phaedra!
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Erica: Phaedra is my name.
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:48 A pretty amazing and inscrutable piece of art
	🥁 ♥ 4:49pm Funky16Corners: Make sure to stay tuned for Kip! wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 4:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:48 All the more interesting with Nancy Sinatra as one of the artists (wouldn't generally describe her work as amazing and inscrutable, though you could use "fun" to describe it).
	🥁 ♥ 4:50pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:48 That was groundbreaking arrangement for its time.
	🥁 ♥ 4:51pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:50 I think you can attribute its inscrutability 100% to Lee Hazlewood
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Expecting to Fly" by "Buffalo Springfield" Great track!
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:52 One of my favorites
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm Funky16Corners: By ANYONE
	♥ 4:54pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Some Velvet Morning" by "Nancy Sinatra and Lee Ha... Lee's granddaughter Phaedra Dawn Stewart sang this with him on his final record, which came out in 2006.
	♥ 4:54pm Andrew in Toronto: What another great episode! Thanks, larry!
	♥ 4:55pm Michael 98145: Nancy's still out there www.theguardian.com...
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:44 (can I go home now...) ;- )
	4:57pm bobobobob: WLS.....you da man with a radio plan

	🥁 ♥ 3:47pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:44 Yeah, like Anyway You Want me, BOTH that and this covered by my American Breed Chicago buddies.
	🥁 ♥ 3:47pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:47 Nice job here, but hate how he did Beatles song they gave him.
	♥ 3:47pm Michael 98145: Listen, my children, and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere, On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-Five: Hardly a man is now alive Who remembers that famous day and year.
	🥁 ♥ 3:48pm Brian in UK: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:47 Larry, impressed that you can spell idiosyncrastic!
	🥁 ♥ 3:48pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Roses and Rainbows" by "Danny Hutton" Pretty good regional hit and cool pic sleeve--rare for HBR label to have PS.
	🥁 ♥ 3:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:47 I've never heard that couplet with the date attached!
	🥁 ♥ 3:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @3:48 Oh, I'm a spelling FOOL
	🥁 ♥ 3:49pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @3:48 Im more of a sarcastic idiot, I think.
	♥ 3:50pm Michael 98145: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:47 So through the night rode Paul Revere; And so through the night went his cry of alarm To every Middlesex village and farm,— A cry of defiance, and not of fear, A voice in the darkness, a knock at the door, And a word that shall echo forevermore!
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm Brian in UK: ↳ WLSClark @3:49 How sweet to be an idiot; as Neil Innes sang.
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @3:50 Always look on the bright side of life!
	♥ 3:51pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Magic In the Air" by "Cher" Back when Cher looked like Cher
	🥁 ♥ 3:51pm WLSClark: Took Jill to Cher play at out theater last week. They had 3 different age Chers in it and they talked to each other and occasionally sang together as the life was presented.
	🥁 ♥ 3:52pm Erica: ↳ WLSClark @3:50 And on the bright side of death too.
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm WLSClark: ↳ Erica @3:52 Haha. Never looked at that side! ;)
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm WLSClark: ↳ WLSClark @3:53 Well, at least not until Trump came along. Ugh
	🥁 ♥ 3:54pm Funky16Corners: I'm working on an "early Cher" show
	🥁 ♥ 3:54pm Brian in UK: Cher sings Phil. Whodatthoughtit. Not me.
	♥ 3:54pm Michael 98145: ↳ WLSClark @3:53 🤢
	🥁 ♥ 3:54pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "There But For Fortune" by "Cher" Phil Ochs--genius with troubles.
	♥ 3:55pm Michael 98145: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:54 Looking forward to that
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:54 Absolutely
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Brian in UK: ↳ WLSClark @3:54 I still get so frustrated that he took his life. Does not go away.
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:55 I wonder if Sonny ever met Phil? BOTH very driven by popularity.
	🥁 ♥ 3:57pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:56 Sonny worked with Spector a LOT. He and Nino Tempo are two of the biggest acolytes
	🥁 ♥ 3:57pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @3:56 Indeed. So sad. actually, I guess Sonny did meet Phil because I have all 3 on a TV show together--Merv Griffin maybe?
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Funky16Corners: Sonny started as a song plugger for Specialty records, then he and Cher both worked in the studio with Spector
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:57 No, sorry, am talking of Sonny and Phil Ochs.
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:58 Oh, I have no idea if they ever met
	🥁 ♥ 4:00pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:58 Yeah, I knew that. Phil Ochs sings 2 songs on MURRAY THE K show with S&C as guests too on TV that I have. When done, Murray comes out and talks to Phil and you can tell Phil is holding back because he thinks this is stupid.
	🥁 ♥ 4:01pm doctorjazz: ↳ WLSClark @3:54 I've mentioned this on the boards somewhere, but I saw Phil Ochs in some Village Club back in the day. The club was packed-Ochs hardly played, he spoke, seemed both depressed and confused. I wasn't shocked when I heard later that he took his life.
	🥁 ♥ 4:01pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Sandy" by "Ronny and the Daytonas" Beautiful song.
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Sandy" by "Ronny and the Daytonas" Did Gary Usher have a hand in this recording?
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm WLSClark: ↳ doctorjazz @4:01 I can see that. So much politics, but sometimes over the top?
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm WLSClark: larry are these your fave songs? I missed the start.
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:02 Ochs was bipolar, and it got worse as the years wore on.
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:02 These are all records that IMHO take the Wall of Sound concept in better directions
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:02 He did not. This is straight out of Tennessee!
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:03 I see. You are right!
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: Some of the best imitation Brian Wilson ever committed to vinyl
	♥ 4:05pm Michael 98145: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:04 i hear that
	🥁 ♥ 4:11pm WLSClark: i LOVE Beverly's "Happy New Year"
	🥁 ♥ 4:15pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Heroes and Villains" by "Beach Boys" Great song, but the 45 sounded kinda cloudy sounding back when it was new.
	🥁 ♥ 4:16pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:15 Brian, another disciple of the Wall of Sound
	🥁 ♥ 4:16pm Funky16Corners: Often working with the exact same bunch of musicians
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Heroes and Villains" by "Beach Boys" When I hear that whistle noise, makes me think of Spike Jones circa Cocktails for Two.
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:16 Yes indeed.
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Heroes and Villains" by "Beach Boys" Love this (wanted to clicky-star, but already clicky-starred)!
	♥ 4:18pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Heroes and Villains" by "Beach Boys" kind of a forgotten track ...
	4:18pm bobob plasticland: Hey Larry Great Show Great Music ...!!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm WR: ↳ Song: "Heroes and Villains" by "Beach Boys" I like this so much that I break my general pattern of not clicky star a recording that I have a copy (or two or three) of. But it is such a great recording.
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm Funky16Corners: ↳ bobob plasticland @4:18 Thanks bobob!
	🥁 ♥ 4:19pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:17 It reminds me of when Brian uses that giant chromatic harmonica. It has a funny sound to it!
	🥁 ♥ 4:19pm WLSClark: BOBOB! You're alright!!! :)
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: Speaking of that harmonica!
	🥁 ♥ 4:22pm Funky16Corners: Banjo!
	🥁 ♥ 4:22pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:20 I dont remember when I bought this LP, but I remember when I drove to the store in 80s to finally get the CD the day it came out! Totally stoked.
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm WLSClark: ↳ WR @4:18 What do you think of the long Smile version? Its a bit much to me.
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:23 I prefer the original
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:23 Me too.
	♥ 4:25pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Land of 1,000 Dances" by "Nino Tempo and April St... fun !
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Land of 1,000 Dances" by "Nino Tempo and April St... These two really surprise me how they were older hitmakers in 60s, but broke thru. One of my first 45s was Deep Purple which I loved.
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:25 Deep Purple is a fave of mine as well
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "All Strung Out" by "Nino Tempo and April Stevens" These WW songs are just SO great! I was lucky to do some work on their Varese CD reissue of it back in 90s.
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:26 Oneof my all time favorite albums
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:26 How about that B side title? OH MY. That was so funny!
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:27 The flip of this one?
	🥁 ♥ 4:29pm Erica: ↳ Song: "You'll Be Needing Me Baby" by "Nino Tempo and Apr... Beautiful song by Nino and April.
	🥁 ♥ 4:34pm Funky16Corners: This one covered in the UK by the Mindbenders
	🥁 ♥ 4:36pm WLSClark: Sorry, had to step away. Was talking bout flip of Deep Purple in SMALL print on 45. Title: "I've Been Carrying A Torch For You So Long That I Burned A Great Big Hole In My Heart"
	🥁 ♥ 4:36pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:36 That's hilarious!
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "World Of Dreams" by "Cake" Who produced the Cake LP? Certainly Wall of Sound SOUND.
	🥁 ♥ 4:40pm WLSClark: larry, I found the Sonny &Cher with phil Ochs on Murray the K show. I can send later as a transfer.
	🥁 ♥ 4:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:38 Credited to Charlie Greene and Brian Stone, more likely actually produced by Harold Battiste, Mac Rebennack and Doc Siegel
	♥ 4:40pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Off and Running" by "Lesley Gore" Did Lesley cover the Mindbenders? Or vice-versa?
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @4:40 Written by Toni Wine and Carole Bayer (Sager) so I'm going with Lesley first
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "River Deep Mountain High" by "Nilsson" First hearing of Ike & Tina got my attention. And the second & third!
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm WLSClark: ↳ David Shortell @4:40 I THINK Mindbenders covered after. Not sure, tho.
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm Brian in UK: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:41 Mindbenders also did Wine's Groovy Kind of Love?
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:40 Seems like Charlie Green worked with Sonny & Cher too?
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:42 They managed Sonny and Cher and a bunch of other acts. I addressed them at length during my marathon show about my premium
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm WLSClark: anyone ever see the 1967 Pandemonium BOX LP set that promoted the LP? I saw it way back in70s one time, but did not buy. Stupid!
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:43 I thought maybe so!
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm doctorjazz: Almost the end, went fast, thanks Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:44 NO! I wish I had that!
	🥁 ♥ 4:45pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:44 A couple of killers yet to come!
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Brian in UK: Nice work, Larry.
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:44 had photos and such inside. Kinda like the Donovan box set thing in 67 style. Gotta go ahead of your great theme song, sorry. Bye!
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:46 Thanks Brian!
	🥁 ♥ 4:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:46 Bye Clark!
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Some Velvet Morning" by "Nancy Sinatra and Lee Ha... This song always intrigues me. It's like 2 songs combined.
	♥ 4:48pm Michael 98145: Phaedra!
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Erica: Phaedra is my name.
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:48 A pretty amazing and inscrutable piece of art
	🥁 ♥ 4:49pm Funky16Corners: Make sure to stay tuned for Kip! wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 4:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:48 All the more interesting with Nancy Sinatra as one of the artists (wouldn't generally describe her work as amazing and inscrutable, though you could use "fun" to describe it).
	🥁 ♥ 4:50pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:48 That was groundbreaking arrangement for its time.
	🥁 ♥ 4:51pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:50 I think you can attribute its inscrutability 100% to Lee Hazlewood
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Expecting to Fly" by "Buffalo Springfield" Great track!
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:52 One of my favorites
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm Funky16Corners: By ANYONE
	♥ 4:54pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Some Velvet Morning" by "Nancy Sinatra and Lee Ha... Lee's granddaughter Phaedra Dawn Stewart sang this with him on his final record, which came out in 2006.
	♥ 4:54pm Andrew in Toronto: What another great episode! Thanks, larry!
	♥ 4:55pm Michael 98145: Nancy's still out there www.theguardian.com...
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:44 (can I go home now...) ;- )
	4:57pm bobobobob: WLS.....you da man with a radio plan
