It was always a cultural point of interest in the girl's lavatory, though, watching the greaser gals ratting their hair and popping their gum. :)
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:31am Brian in UK:

Hey Doug, have you seen the film 'Muscle Shoals' yet? Thought it was a bit pastiche in places but there is no way to forget the sounds that eminated from Florence.

My hair was all my own.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:32am Doug Schulkind:

Brian, I haven't yet seen the movie. Would love to, though I could do without the absurd inclusion (apparently) of Bono as a talking head in the film.
Avatar 9:32am kat330:

Hey, Doug, your star-click system doesn't seem to be working, for me anyway. I've clicked and reclicked and reclicked a track, but it keeps unclicking itself.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:34am Doug Schulkind:

Yikes, kat330! Don't know what to say. Anyone else having that problem?

He is a prat. We could say what he says and better. That's what I mean by pastiche some of it looks a bit duff.

Try refreshing the page and see if the star sticks, Duke.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:37am listener james from westwood:

i checked my profile page after starring a track. it's listed among my faves, but the star isn't "lit." perhaps yours did in fact make it into your list?
Avatar 9:39am kat330:

I just timed it: about 15 seconds after I click Dan Penn's track, the star unclicks itself automatically, no need even to refresh to have it happen. Weird.
Avatar 🥁 9:39am duke:

@kat330 star is highlighted after refresh. Maybe browser differences?
Avatar 9:42am kat330:

@James: Yep, made it to the list and, right, the star's unlit and simply refuses to stay lit. Oh well, guess Dan IS losing his good thing.

With the harp background, crossing over into the light has a different connotation.

This is from the divine Laura Veirs' new record. Elsewhere on the record she has a song that pays tribute in name to Alice Coltrane, but I think this song is even more of a tribute.

And by divine, I don't mean Harris Glenn Milstead.

great one here Doug!

Advocaat + lemonade = snowball.

As 'a younger man' I used to whip up an egg and brandy flip for breakfast. Followed quickly by a bottle of beer. Great for breakfast.

@Stanley & Brian: Well, this Chesterfield / Sheffield dude IS into very retro things. He's fixated on all things of the '80s.

Thanks!

Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:40am Uncle Michael:

Just a quick drive-by to say happy new year and see you in 2014 to all assembled Drumsomes!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:41am Stanley:

@Brian - not sure, is that warm brandy or something?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:41am Uncle Michael:

Oh, and he asked ME for a good egg nog recipe -- a 'Merkan! Told him we don't do egg nog. Not a fan.

@kat One speciality in Chesterfield are huge Yorkshire puddings with fillings or just filled with gravy.

Stanley, never touched one myself.

THIS IS NUTS! I like it.
Avatar 11:44am kat330:

How did your pudding ice cream turn out, btw? He mentioned putting mincemeat pies into the oven on Christmas Eve. But he loves '80s music (the collab I'm doing with him) and film and tv.
Avatar 11:46am kat330:

[Actually, just mince pies, no meat mentioned on a reread.]
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:46am Brian in UK:

@kat During this programme the receipe for egg nog is divulged.

Ice Cream was good, the machine does most of the work!!!

You'd be crazy not to, Uncle Michael.
Avatar 11:47am kat330:

Doug, did you add the "De" before Frank so it could be an all "D" artist set? ;)

Great programme Doug, if it does sound a bit familar.

About 66% of that was Suspicious Minds, right?
Avatar 11:50am Carmichael:

@Brian, who's the drunkard that built your church?!
Avatar 11:51am kat330:

@still b/p: Yeah, I heard that, too.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:52am Stanley:

@kat330 - those drinks, are definitely sixties favourites. The pangalactic gargleblaster was the drink of the eighties for me.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:52am Doug Schulkind:

My pleasure, Brian in UK. My pleasure, Brian in UK.
