	♥ 9:09am Joe McG: Hi, everybody! Welcome to the show. @bob: Early birds get the worms. @sphere: They had a few, just none of them in the U.S.
	9:10am Wild Neil: 75 dollar bill has an African sounding guitar.
	9:14am Pete L: and #1 on the WFMU HOT 100 - it's 75 Dollar Bill"!!!!!! not a complaint

	9:16am Pete L: Ali Farke Toure gone wrong!
	♥ 9:18am Joe McG: @Pete L: Ali Tookarong Tourne.

	9:21am Pete L: is this on CD? i mean can i buy a CD someplace - oh yeah, i could look on that internet. May have buy a fuckin rekkid
	9:23am bobdoesthings: @peteL- or you could buy on their bandcamp - 75dollarbill.bandcamp.com...
	♥ 9:26am Sem Chumbo: Love this language and the snappy uke pickin'. Can Gabby Pahinui be far behind?
	♥ 9:29am Joe McG: @Sem: I brought in that Ry Cooder LP with Gabby on it and forgot about it, so there goes that transition! :)
	♥ 9:32am Sem Chumbo: Huh. Live radio, what are ya gonna do:-D
	9:33am KP: Hey over the air radio is a great solution to this iffy Internet thing
	♥ 9:35am Joe McG: @Fred: Oh, man, I wish I'd thought of that during the marathon!
	9:40am Wild Neil: @Pete L-yes it is at least a CD is available...just google it, I found it...
	🎸 ♥ 9:44am melinda: Enjoying the new Britta Phillips album.
	9:46am Wild Neil: Dean and Britta were in some movie about a high powered executive cheating on his wife with a high powered woman in the supermarket market. The woman had a hissy fit during a board meeting and got away with it. This is the first time I saw Britta Philips. Wow, she is well-preserved.
	9:48am Cecile: she's 2 years younger than I am...
	9:50am Wild Neil: @Cecile sorry I offended you...that came out wrong to be sure! You have always been fair to me and I appreciate that...
	9:52am Cecile: sorry, I was just amused. It's hard to think of oneself and ones age-group as old, but we technically are!
	9:52am Cecile: My knees know they are. I had to run to the bus today, and everyone laughed at my little stiff legged jog - "c'mon you can do it!"
	9:53am Wild Neil: I am still 17 in my mind...but almost 50 in my body. Yikes, the 60's used to be "twenty years ago"...but wait, that's like 30 years ago...geez....
	9:53am Wild Neil: I love Hashish! Wait, that came out wrong...
	🎸 ♥ 9:53am melinda: Aging is weird.
	9:54am Cecile: you damn right.
	♥ 9:54am Marcel M: Ain't nothin' but a numbah.
	🎸 ♥ 9:55am melinda: Great set, hate to miss more while I transit to work. This Gap Dream is excellent.
	🎸 ♥ 9:55am melinda: I wish it were only a number.
	♥ 9:55am Joe McG: Thanks, Melinda, sorry you have to go to work today! :(
	🎸 ♥ 9:56am Stevel: Gap Dream gets better and better.
	9:56am Cecile: age has a way of humbling you
	♥ 9:58am Ear Hammer: les yeux sans visage!
	10:00am Wild Neil: Is Rat Rios secretly Coctuea Twins? OR this next song? Also, check out Chimera on Grass Records as a very similar band sometime...
	10:01am david from ks.: ,,,,good stuff !
	10:02am KP: Gap Dream
	♥ 10:06am βrian: Castilian?
	10:07am Wild Neil: SERIOUS 80's nostalgia now...I was in tenth grade...
	10:09am Cecile: I think I was 70 when this came out.
	♥ 10:10am βrian: There's a fine line between 80s nostalgia and 80s neuralgia.
	10:11am Wild Neil: Hey, if I graduated in 1985, was it really 1986 the day I walked down the aisle cap and gown or was it really June 1985? I am confused now about if I started kindergarten at age 4...
	10:12am Cecile: I like early Depeche Mode. I like the idea of Erasure.
	♥ 10:14am βrian: As far as the clothing store, I used to remember it's name as The Lapse.
	10:18am KP: Prop with Gap Dream is sales people think Gap Band and succeed in confusing me
	♥ 10:20am annie: if i recall some little ditty on TCM discusssing hattie mcaniel, she was a very vocal human rights advocate, both for women and for minorities in film and on stage?
	10:21am Cecile: Okay, I now like Erasure's cover of Gaudete.
	10:23am Wild Neil: Never mind, I called North Warren Regional High School and they cleared it up...I graduated in June of 1985...and started kindergarten at age 5 in 1972..all is in order with the universe now..oh yeah, Pylon, they were in Athens Inside Out...I saw this in the village near 4th street in the 80's...that was like so 20th century. They were really out there for back then as I was discovering this whole world of college radio and REMs colleagues.
	♥ 10:24am Joe McG: @annie: Yes, Annie, she was quite a lady! She also won an Academy Award.
	10:24am Wild Neil: Got any live PIL?
	♥ 10:25am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe!
	♥ 10:25am Santos L. Halper: Hey Joe, thanks for the Pylon, and that first set was wonderful. Tuning in from Montreal for the next couple weeks. Any tourist recommendations from anyone out there?
	♥ 10:26am Guido from Cologne: I love this section!
	♥ 10:27am Joe McG: Hey Greg! Glad you enjoyed the LONG set, Santos! I'm eager to hear Montreal recommendations, too, since I'd like to go up there in the fall...
	♥ 10:28am βrian: @Santos: is the Cinéma Parallèle still around? I used to go there when I could in the late 80s.
	♥ 10:28am annie: her movie career was quite extensive and prolific.
	♥ 10:29am Guido from Cologne: ... guitar solos as they should be ...
	10:30am Wild Neil: I think Elfin Saddle is from Montreal, so maybe you could catch them...they have like two good songs.
	♥ 10:30am βrian: Ah, it seems to have closed ...
	♥ 10:31am Sem Chumbo: Wiggy sounds, Joe.
	♥ 10:32am βrian: As far as the beers I remember and love: Ste Ambroise and Boréale.
	🎸 ♥ 10:36am Mike Sin: All right -- happy to hear the show live today!
	10:36am Wild Neil: The Gothic Bascillica in Montreal looks like a must-see.
	♥ 10:37am Joe McG: Nice to see you, Mike!
	10:37am bobdoesthings: YES!!!!!! KERMIT AND FOZZZIE!
	10:38am bobdoesthings: I can sing along!
	♥ 10:38am annie: early muppets rocked!!
	10:38am Wild Neil: Is it just me or does Kermit sound like the guy that does the Monk theme song?
	10:38am melinda: Aw, muppets! Thanks Joe.
	♥ 10:38am Sem Chumbo: I love THE Quebecois IPA, Irregular Poutine Ale @ βrian.
	10:39am Cecile: I love Chromeo and they put on the best shows. I also had a great sandwich at Titanic in Montreal when I was up there a long time ago.
	♥ 10:39am JP from KC: OH HELL YES, JOE!! MUPPETS!! Things like his are why I'm pretty sure we should be best friends.
	10:39am melinda: The Bran Flakes sampled this to good effect in one of their songs.
	10:40am Wild Neil: As a kid I always wanted to live the furthest west as possible in a time zone so I could stay outside late for the late sunset in June.
	♥ 10:41am βrian: You may also get some good information via CKUT.
	♥ 10:42am Santos L. Halper: @Brian: il y a beaucoup des megaplexes ici; did find a couple of art house type places
	10:42am Cecile: you have to go to Schwartz's. The smoked meat is amazing.
	10:43am Cecile: yaaas
	10:43am sphere: sometimes nostalgia is a good thing. this Soul II Soul tune still does the job :)
	10:43am Jack: Hey Joe! My swag just arrived! Nice tee-shirt. Thank you Herr Swagmeister, and thanks to volunteers who stuffed my envelope (nice job!) and thank you Scott (Director of Volunteer Deployment).
	♥ 10:44am Joe McG: Glad to hear it, Jack! Everyone, slowly but surely, swag is leaving the building. If you don't have yours yet, don't worry.
	♥ 10:45am Sem Chumbo: Yes @Cecile, a highlight of any trip to Montreal, no doubt,
	♥ 10:45am βrian: And Montreal is bagel-central, of course.
	♥ 10:46am Parq: Soul II Soul -- not much out there that says the early 90s more to me.
	10:47am V Priceless: Roy!!
	♥ 10:48am Parq: What VP said.
	♥ 10:51am βrian: Mmm, on the sandwich menu at Titanic: Smoked mackerel with pickled onions. Yes, please.
	10:51am V Priceless: The Ox...gone 14 years today
	🎸 ♥ 10:52am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Roy Wood certainly knew a good hook.
	♥ 10:52am annie: my swag has arrived in august usually..
	🎸 ♥ 10:52am Mick: @V Priceless, Yes pour one out for the Quiet One
	10:53am KP: Who was that
	♥ 10:54am annie: i LOVE singing along to this!
	10:54am V Priceless: @Mick - indeed, cheers!
	10:55am bobdoesthings: hmmmmmmmm surface noise
	♥ 10:56am Joe McG: @bobdt: Yep, it's a scratchy one, but I think the song just jumps out anyhow! :)
	10:59am bobdoesthings: @joemcg- i'm into it! I was indulging in it. like an ASMR response.
	11:01am Wild Neil: This show is really summer-y. This is the music I imagine playing at a drive in theatre an hour before showtime...in the 50's
	11:01am Cecile: wow, you forget about the 50s hits before rock 'n' roll. And this song kind of makes you remember why.
	🎸 ♥ 11:02am Brian in UK: Marsupial is a good word.
	♥ 11:03am Greg from ZONE 5: Rex loves playing the "Rednecks, crackers, hillbillies, pea-pickers!" clip from A Face In The Crowd. (Great effin' movie…)
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am Brian in UK: @Joe when is Chip Taylor DAY?
	♥ 11:05am annie: does anyone know if winamp has a version for El Capitan?
	🎸 ♥ 11:05am Stevel: Happy death to us all!
	🎸 ♥ 11:05am ChrisB.: Tex Williams was a vocalist in Spade Cooley's outfit, too.
	♥ 11:07am Rev. Turnip Druid: [crashes through door, tumbles to the floor in a shower of splintered wood and certain injuries] "...SOMEONE SAID MARSUPIAL!"
	🎸 ♥ 11:07am tadpoles: Hey then Joe, Roy Wood was the genius of the Move! Keep movin' right along now...
	♥ 11:11am βrian: Indeed, the website is the best medium for event listings. Better not to chew up good air time.
	11:13am Cecile: this is really nice.
	11:13am Exile: wasn't this the theme for easy rider?
	🎸 ♥ 11:14am Brian in UK: When suddenly this Harley chopper heading down a two lane black top flattened the singer.
	11:14am thedunkel: agree with Cecile - this really does sound nice!
	11:14am KP: Until this Monkees version came out I had no idea Carol King wrote it. Just Byrds
	11:15am Cecile: beau brummels!
	🎸 ♥ 11:20am Brian in UK: Easy Rider was one of the first films to match music and film. Beatles notwithstanding. The Wasn't Born to Follow scene is spot on unlike a lot of the rest of the film. Looks dated now but in '69 I thought it was great.
	11:20am bobdoesthings: these lyrics are great ... "hey remember when we killed that poor guy in mexico... ya.. best not to think about it.. what a weird day"
	🎸 ♥ 11:20am ChrisB.: I've heard rumors of a Danny and Dusty re-boot for some time now.
	♥ 11:21am Joe McG: @bob: Ah, nostalgia! @BrianUK: Sheila B. did a nice Chip Taylor day a few weeks ago! Check out her archives.
	🎸 ♥ 11:22am Brian in UK: Thanks Joe, must give Sheila B more time.
	♥ 11:23am Joe McG: @Brian: Yes, do! One of the best shows on the air right now.
	♥ 11:27am Michael 98145: what Joe said
	11:28am Dennis Diken: wonderful show Joe! loved the Roy Wood cut, haven't heard it in many moons, it's a fave!
	11:28am Cecile: that Monkees album looks quite good. I just listened to the Weezer-penned song, and it was surprisingly good!
	11:28am Cecile: Mickey sounds amazing. www.youtube.com...
	11:28am melinda: This is one of my favorite Bobby Gentry songs! aahh...
	♥ 11:29am Joe McG: @DD: Thanks for tuning in, Dennis!
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am Brian in UK: Had to have some Bobbie G in there.
	♥ 11:32am annie: damn, i have to stop walking into the other rooms, i keep missing the good stuff..
	11:33am Linda Lee: perfect show for the day, Joe! thank you!
	♥ 11:34am Joe McG: Glad you're enjoying it, Linda Lee!
	11:35am Linda Lee: absolutely!
	🎸 ♥ 11:38am Mike Sin: re: "The Last Ritual" Always saw this LP listed in in Capitol numbered lists and was a bit curious, but saw all the long tracks... Glad to be hearing it for first time. Never reissued, huh?
	♥ 11:39am Michael 98145: This is mostly all new to me. Thank you.
	♥ 11:40am Joe McG: @Mike Sin: Not to my knowledge. Produced by Tom Wilson. A very interesting LP: a bit of country, a bit of jazz, a bit of horn rock. Very involved, interesting lyrics.
	11:42am Linda Lee: at one time covering as many genres per disk as feasible was de rigeur! i do recall.
	11:43am Linda Lee: indeed, LL is old enough to remember when this was happenin.
	11:46am Cecile: I remember the first Zapp album of all things having country (!!!) and rock tinged deep cuts.
	11:47am Linda Lee: indeed. crossover was the game. even in mainstream radio.
	11:50am Linda Lee: not so many sturdy boxes. i have a 5 disc set of nashville stars doing current pop/light rock hits, early 70s vintage. that's 5 albums worth.
	♥ 11:50am Sem Chumbo: Big fun this morning, Joe. Thanks a lot, and see you again next time. Love this Dolly, btw.
	11:50am Cecile: also, loads of these bands had to play live anything and anywhere to be able to make a living at music.
	11:51am cee: man this set is gonna give me a breakdown
	11:51am Wild Neil: Cool show Joe!
	♥ 11:51am Michael 98145: Dolly time!
	♥ 11:52am βrian: America's Piaf.
	♥ 11:52am Greg from ZONE 5: Oof.
	11:53am Linda Lee: right. also, the demographics just weren't as compartmentalized, in terms of marketing or airplay.
	♥ 11:53am Greg from ZONE 5: Did you go see Dolly, Joe?
	🎸 ♥ 11:53am Brian in UK: That Five Man Electrical Band, is it on a Train label?
	♥ 11:53am Joe McG: Sure did, Greg! She was a goddess.
	11:54am Wild Neil: In the beginning, FM radio was a real free-for-all from what I have heard here and there...
	🎸 ♥ 11:54am Brian in UK: Present tense, Joe. Great show as ever.
	11:55am Wild Neil: every smart phone has a switched off FM radio chip! www.npr.org...
	♥ 11:55am Santos L. Halper: Great show Joe, thanks! I'll make a list of what i find cool here in Montreal for ya.
	🎸 ♥ 11:55am Mick: This country set is stopping me in my tracks!
	♥ 11:55am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, all! Have a GREAT week!
	11:55am Cecile: someone was complaining on slate that the old chart system should come back so that an album can really be the "album of the year". I personally loved it when Sound Scan upended everything in the 80s. It reflected what people were actually listening to.
	♥ 11:56am βrian: My one great regret: I cannot whistle.
	🎸 ♥ 11:57am Brian in UK: @βrian get a dog.
	11:57am bobdoesthings: Thanks Joe!! great show
	11:57am cee: there something in my eyes. it's probably just dust
	11:58am Linda Lee: Wild Neil, i started listening in 1970, nyc. it was pretty wonderful.
	♥ 11:58am βrian: Je suis déjà un chien.
	11:58am melinda: I thought that sounded Fred Neilish.
	11:58am Cecile: making a lasagna for one.
	11:59am sinner: ...and Joe is our Square DJ!
	🎸 ♥ 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: if (day='Monday') then do ...call('Joe1') ...call('Joe2') end
	♥ 11:59am Michael 98145: speaking of those early days of FM: www.krab.fm...
	11:59am Cecile: Gary Busey is a walking PSA for motorcycle helmet laws.

	9:10am Wild Neil: 75 dollar bill has an African sounding guitar.

	9:40am Wild Neil: @Pete L-yes it is at least a CD is available...just google it, I found it...
	🎸 ♥ 9:44am melinda: Enjoying the new Britta Phillips album.
	9:46am Wild Neil: Dean and Britta were in some movie about a high powered executive cheating on his wife with a high powered woman in the supermarket market. The woman had a hissy fit during a board meeting and got away with it. This is the first time I saw Britta Philips. Wow, she is well-preserved.
	9:48am Cecile: she's 2 years younger than I am...
	9:50am Wild Neil: @Cecile sorry I offended you...that came out wrong to be sure! You have always been fair to me and I appreciate that...
	9:52am Cecile: sorry, I was just amused. It's hard to think of oneself and ones age-group as old, but we technically are!
	9:52am Cecile: My knees know they are. I had to run to the bus today, and everyone laughed at my little stiff legged jog - "c'mon you can do it!"
	9:53am Wild Neil: I am still 17 in my mind...but almost 50 in my body. Yikes, the 60's used to be "twenty years ago"...but wait, that's like 30 years ago...geez....
	9:53am Wild Neil: I love Hashish! Wait, that came out wrong...
	🎸 ♥ 9:53am melinda: Aging is weird.
	9:54am Cecile: you damn right.
	♥ 9:54am Marcel M: Ain't nothin' but a numbah.
	🎸 ♥ 9:55am melinda: Great set, hate to miss more while I transit to work. This Gap Dream is excellent.
	🎸 ♥ 9:55am melinda: I wish it were only a number.
	♥ 9:55am Joe McG: Thanks, Melinda, sorry you have to go to work today! :(
	🎸 ♥ 9:56am Stevel: Gap Dream gets better and better.
	9:56am Cecile: age has a way of humbling you
	♥ 9:58am Ear Hammer: les yeux sans visage!
	10:00am Wild Neil: Is Rat Rios secretly Coctuea Twins? OR this next song? Also, check out Chimera on Grass Records as a very similar band sometime...
	10:01am david from ks.: ,,,,good stuff !
	10:02am KP: Gap Dream
	♥ 10:06am βrian: Castilian?
	10:07am Wild Neil: SERIOUS 80's nostalgia now...I was in tenth grade...
	10:09am Cecile: I think I was 70 when this came out.
	♥ 10:10am βrian: There's a fine line between 80s nostalgia and 80s neuralgia.
	10:11am Wild Neil: Hey, if I graduated in 1985, was it really 1986 the day I walked down the aisle cap and gown or was it really June 1985? I am confused now about if I started kindergarten at age 4...
	10:12am Cecile: I like early Depeche Mode. I like the idea of Erasure.
	♥ 10:14am βrian: As far as the clothing store, I used to remember it's name as The Lapse.
	10:18am KP: Prop with Gap Dream is sales people think Gap Band and succeed in confusing me
	♥ 10:20am annie: if i recall some little ditty on TCM discusssing hattie mcaniel, she was a very vocal human rights advocate, both for women and for minorities in film and on stage?
	10:21am Cecile: Okay, I now like Erasure's cover of Gaudete.
	10:23am Wild Neil: Never mind, I called North Warren Regional High School and they cleared it up...I graduated in June of 1985...and started kindergarten at age 5 in 1972..all is in order with the universe now..oh yeah, Pylon, they were in Athens Inside Out...I saw this in the village near 4th street in the 80's...that was like so 20th century. They were really out there for back then as I was discovering this whole world of college radio and REMs colleagues.
	♥ 10:24am Joe McG: @annie: Yes, Annie, she was quite a lady! She also won an Academy Award.
	10:24am Wild Neil: Got any live PIL?
	♥ 10:25am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe!
	♥ 10:25am Santos L. Halper: Hey Joe, thanks for the Pylon, and that first set was wonderful. Tuning in from Montreal for the next couple weeks. Any tourist recommendations from anyone out there?
	♥ 10:26am Guido from Cologne: I love this section!
	♥ 10:27am Joe McG: Hey Greg! Glad you enjoyed the LONG set, Santos! I'm eager to hear Montreal recommendations, too, since I'd like to go up there in the fall...
	♥ 10:28am βrian: @Santos: is the Cinéma Parallèle still around? I used to go there when I could in the late 80s.
	♥ 10:28am annie: her movie career was quite extensive and prolific.
	♥ 10:29am Guido from Cologne: ... guitar solos as they should be ...
	10:30am Wild Neil: I think Elfin Saddle is from Montreal, so maybe you could catch them...they have like two good songs.
	♥ 10:30am βrian: Ah, it seems to have closed ...
	♥ 10:31am Sem Chumbo: Wiggy sounds, Joe.
	♥ 10:32am βrian: As far as the beers I remember and love: Ste Ambroise and Boréale.
	🎸 ♥ 10:36am Mike Sin: All right -- happy to hear the show live today!
	10:36am Wild Neil: The Gothic Bascillica in Montreal looks like a must-see.
	♥ 10:37am Joe McG: Nice to see you, Mike!
	10:37am bobdoesthings: YES!!!!!! KERMIT AND FOZZZIE!
	10:38am bobdoesthings: I can sing along!
	♥ 10:38am annie: early muppets rocked!!
	10:38am Wild Neil: Is it just me or does Kermit sound like the guy that does the Monk theme song?
	10:38am melinda: Aw, muppets! Thanks Joe.
	♥ 10:38am Sem Chumbo: I love THE Quebecois IPA, Irregular Poutine Ale @ βrian.
	10:39am Cecile: I love Chromeo and they put on the best shows. I also had a great sandwich at Titanic in Montreal when I was up there a long time ago.
	♥ 10:39am JP from KC: OH HELL YES, JOE!! MUPPETS!! Things like his are why I'm pretty sure we should be best friends.
	10:39am melinda: The Bran Flakes sampled this to good effect in one of their songs.
	10:40am Wild Neil: As a kid I always wanted to live the furthest west as possible in a time zone so I could stay outside late for the late sunset in June.
	♥ 10:41am βrian: You may also get some good information via CKUT.
	♥ 10:42am Santos L. Halper: @Brian: il y a beaucoup des megaplexes ici; did find a couple of art house type places
	10:42am Cecile: you have to go to Schwartz's. The smoked meat is amazing.
	10:43am Cecile: yaaas
	10:43am sphere: sometimes nostalgia is a good thing. this Soul II Soul tune still does the job :)
	10:43am Jack: Hey Joe! My swag just arrived! Nice tee-shirt. Thank you Herr Swagmeister, and thanks to volunteers who stuffed my envelope (nice job!) and thank you Scott (Director of Volunteer Deployment).
	♥ 10:44am Joe McG: Glad to hear it, Jack! Everyone, slowly but surely, swag is leaving the building. If you don't have yours yet, don't worry.
	♥ 10:45am Sem Chumbo: Yes @Cecile, a highlight of any trip to Montreal, no doubt,
	♥ 10:45am βrian: And Montreal is bagel-central, of course.
	♥ 10:46am Parq: Soul II Soul -- not much out there that says the early 90s more to me.
	10:47am V Priceless: Roy!!
	♥ 10:48am Parq: What VP said.
	♥ 10:51am βrian: Mmm, on the sandwich menu at Titanic: Smoked mackerel with pickled onions. Yes, please.
	10:51am V Priceless: The Ox...gone 14 years today
	🎸 ♥ 10:52am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Roy Wood certainly knew a good hook.
	♥ 10:52am annie: my swag has arrived in august usually..
	🎸 ♥ 10:52am Mick: @V Priceless, Yes pour one out for the Quiet One
	10:53am KP: Who was that
	♥ 10:54am annie: i LOVE singing along to this!
	10:54am V Priceless: @Mick - indeed, cheers!
	10:55am bobdoesthings: hmmmmmmmm surface noise
	♥ 10:56am Joe McG: @bobdt: Yep, it's a scratchy one, but I think the song just jumps out anyhow! :)
	10:59am bobdoesthings: @joemcg- i'm into it! I was indulging in it. like an ASMR response.
	11:01am Wild Neil: This show is really summer-y. This is the music I imagine playing at a drive in theatre an hour before showtime...in the 50's
	11:01am Cecile: wow, you forget about the 50s hits before rock 'n' roll. And this song kind of makes you remember why.
	🎸 ♥ 11:02am Brian in UK: Marsupial is a good word.
	♥ 11:03am Greg from ZONE 5: Rex loves playing the "Rednecks, crackers, hillbillies, pea-pickers!" clip from A Face In The Crowd. (Great effin' movie…)
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am Brian in UK: @Joe when is Chip Taylor DAY?
	♥ 11:05am annie: does anyone know if winamp has a version for El Capitan?
	🎸 ♥ 11:05am Stevel: Happy death to us all!
	🎸 ♥ 11:05am ChrisB.: Tex Williams was a vocalist in Spade Cooley's outfit, too.
	♥ 11:07am Rev. Turnip Druid: [crashes through door, tumbles to the floor in a shower of splintered wood and certain injuries] "...SOMEONE SAID MARSUPIAL!"
	🎸 ♥ 11:07am tadpoles: Hey then Joe, Roy Wood was the genius of the Move! Keep movin' right along now...
	♥ 11:11am βrian: Indeed, the website is the best medium for event listings. Better not to chew up good air time.
	11:13am Cecile: this is really nice.
	11:13am Exile: wasn't this the theme for easy rider?
	🎸 ♥ 11:14am Brian in UK: When suddenly this Harley chopper heading down a two lane black top flattened the singer.
	11:14am thedunkel: agree with Cecile - this really does sound nice!
	11:14am KP: Until this Monkees version came out I had no idea Carol King wrote it. Just Byrds
	11:15am Cecile: beau brummels!
	🎸 ♥ 11:20am Brian in UK: Easy Rider was one of the first films to match music and film. Beatles notwithstanding. The Wasn't Born to Follow scene is spot on unlike a lot of the rest of the film. Looks dated now but in '69 I thought it was great.
	11:20am bobdoesthings: these lyrics are great ... "hey remember when we killed that poor guy in mexico... ya.. best not to think about it.. what a weird day"
	🎸 ♥ 11:20am ChrisB.: I've heard rumors of a Danny and Dusty re-boot for some time now.
	♥ 11:21am Joe McG: @bob: Ah, nostalgia! @BrianUK: Sheila B. did a nice Chip Taylor day a few weeks ago! Check out her archives.
	🎸 ♥ 11:22am Brian in UK: Thanks Joe, must give Sheila B more time.
	♥ 11:23am Joe McG: @Brian: Yes, do! One of the best shows on the air right now.
	♥ 11:27am Michael 98145: what Joe said
	11:28am Dennis Diken: wonderful show Joe! loved the Roy Wood cut, haven't heard it in many moons, it's a fave!
	11:28am Cecile: that Monkees album looks quite good. I just listened to the Weezer-penned song, and it was surprisingly good!
	11:28am Cecile: Mickey sounds amazing. www.youtube.com...
	11:28am melinda: This is one of my favorite Bobby Gentry songs! aahh...
	♥ 11:29am Joe McG: @DD: Thanks for tuning in, Dennis!
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am Brian in UK: Had to have some Bobbie G in there.
	♥ 11:32am annie: damn, i have to stop walking into the other rooms, i keep missing the good stuff..
	11:33am Linda Lee: perfect show for the day, Joe! thank you!
	♥ 11:34am Joe McG: Glad you're enjoying it, Linda Lee!
	11:35am Linda Lee: absolutely!
	🎸 ♥ 11:38am Mike Sin: re: "The Last Ritual" Always saw this LP listed in in Capitol numbered lists and was a bit curious, but saw all the long tracks... Glad to be hearing it for first time. Never reissued, huh?
	♥ 11:39am Michael 98145: This is mostly all new to me. Thank you.
	♥ 11:40am Joe McG: @Mike Sin: Not to my knowledge. Produced by Tom Wilson. A very interesting LP: a bit of country, a bit of jazz, a bit of horn rock. Very involved, interesting lyrics.
	11:42am Linda Lee: at one time covering as many genres per disk as feasible was de rigeur! i do recall.
	11:43am Linda Lee: indeed, LL is old enough to remember when this was happenin.
	11:46am Cecile: I remember the first Zapp album of all things having country (!!!) and rock tinged deep cuts.
	11:47am Linda Lee: indeed. crossover was the game. even in mainstream radio.
	11:50am Linda Lee: not so many sturdy boxes. i have a 5 disc set of nashville stars doing current pop/light rock hits, early 70s vintage. that's 5 albums worth.
	♥ 11:50am Sem Chumbo: Big fun this morning, Joe. Thanks a lot, and see you again next time. Love this Dolly, btw.
	11:50am Cecile: also, loads of these bands had to play live anything and anywhere to be able to make a living at music.
	11:51am cee: man this set is gonna give me a breakdown
	11:51am Wild Neil: Cool show Joe!
	♥ 11:51am Michael 98145: Dolly time!
	♥ 11:52am βrian: America's Piaf.
	♥ 11:52am Greg from ZONE 5: Oof.
	11:53am Linda Lee: right. also, the demographics just weren't as compartmentalized, in terms of marketing or airplay.
	♥ 11:53am Greg from ZONE 5: Did you go see Dolly, Joe?
	🎸 ♥ 11:53am Brian in UK: That Five Man Electrical Band, is it on a Train label?
	♥ 11:53am Joe McG: Sure did, Greg! She was a goddess.
	11:54am Wild Neil: In the beginning, FM radio was a real free-for-all from what I have heard here and there...
	🎸 ♥ 11:54am Brian in UK: Present tense, Joe. Great show as ever.
	11:55am Wild Neil: every smart phone has a switched off FM radio chip! www.npr.org...
	♥ 11:55am Santos L. Halper: Great show Joe, thanks! I'll make a list of what i find cool here in Montreal for ya.
	🎸 ♥ 11:55am Mick: This country set is stopping me in my tracks!
	♥ 11:55am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, all! Have a GREAT week!
	11:55am Cecile: someone was complaining on slate that the old chart system should come back so that an album can really be the "album of the year". I personally loved it when Sound Scan upended everything in the 80s. It reflected what people were actually listening to.
	♥ 11:56am βrian: My one great regret: I cannot whistle.
	🎸 ♥ 11:57am Brian in UK: @βrian get a dog.
	11:57am bobdoesthings: Thanks Joe!! great show
	11:57am cee: there something in my eyes. it's probably just dust
	11:58am Linda Lee: Wild Neil, i started listening in 1970, nyc. it was pretty wonderful.
	♥ 11:58am βrian: Je suis déjà un chien.
	11:58am melinda: I thought that sounded Fred Neilish.
	11:58am Cecile: making a lasagna for one.
	11:59am sinner: ...and Joe is our Square DJ!
	🎸 ♥ 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: if (day='Monday') then do ...call('Joe1') ...call('Joe2') end
	♥ 11:59am Michael 98145: speaking of those early days of FM: www.krab.fm...
	11:59am Cecile: Gary Busey is a walking PSA for motorcycle helmet laws.
