	♥ 2:03pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Dennis! I literally LOL'd at your Bobby Rydell choice!

	♥ 2:05pm Dennis Diken: hey HyperDose! ha Gaylord! good ear! yes, Hatch rules - and don't we know it!!
	2:05pm Reechie: Happy National Disc Jockey Day, Dennis & everybody!
	2:06pm DA the DJ: Hi Dennis and everyone.
	♥ 2:06pm Gaylord Fields: Dennis, I'm trying to get TH on my show — I do have a pretty strong lead.
	♥ 2:06pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Dennis, Gaylord, and everybody who is smiling today!
	♥ 2:07pm Dennis Diken: thanks Reechie! DA! TAST! hey Hoboken Jack! alright!
	♥ 2:08pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Hoboken Jack! It's a sunny day today.
	♥ 2:09pm Woo: Very good afternoon.
	♥ 2:09pm myron feld: Hello, Denizens! Mrs. Feld said earlier, "It certainly is a new day in America: the First Lady isn't swatting away the president's hand."
	♥ 2:09pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - did Michael Shelley interview TH once? also, it's been said that "Forget Him" informed the writing of "She Loves You"
	♥ 2:10pm Chop Scott: Good Afternoon Dennis & all!
	♥ 2:10pm Dennis Diken: welcome Woo! and my man myron! hey Chop Scott!
	♥ 2:10pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Dennis and everybody else!
	♥ 2:11pm Dennis Diken: alright Andrew in Toronto!
	2:12pm Hackensack Slim: Beg Borrow and Steal. The Trump Business Model!
	2:12pm Reechie: So is this The Ohio Express or The Rare Breed? ;)
	♥ 2:14pm Dennis Diken: you got it Hackensack Slim! do tell Reechie?
	2:15pm Reechie: Same record, two different names.
	♥ 2:18pm Gaylord Fields: Dennis, that's correct. John & Paul got the idea of writing SLY as addressing a second person from "Forget Him."
	2:18pm gene sculatti: Great show-start, Dennis! Five Discs forever.
	2:19pm Reechie: The Rare Breed first released "Beg Borrow And Steal" in '66 on the Attack label. Did not chart. Cameo re-released the same record in 67 as The Ohio Express. Went to #29.
	2:22pm Reechie: Rhino was able to include "Beg Borrow And Steal" on the "Nuggets" box set by crediting it as "The Rare Breed", after ABKCO wouldn't let them use it as by "The Ohio Express".
	♥ 2:23pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - I think the upward motion on the verse melody might figure in as well? thanks Gene! @Reechie - new we can use, thanks!
	2:28pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks for the rave on the playlist Dennis! Enjoying this "deep cut" by The Vacant Lot!
	♥ 2:30pm Dennis Diken: sure Todd, well-deserved! we need to occupy The Lot!
	♥ 2:31pm Hoboken Jack: Reechie, I was wondering why it wasn't on my Ohio Express compilation but that explains it, predating Buddah. Hey TOPT
	2:32pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: My Friend Jack!
	♥ 2:33pm Dennis Diken: @Todd - fantastic Lambert, Hendricks & Ross track last nite! yeah, baby!!
	♥ 2:33pm Hoboken Jack: snacking on sugarlumps
	♥ 2:36pm Woo: Everything is fine Dennis on Tape.
	♥ 2:37pm Dennis Diken: thanks Woo!!
	♥ 2:38pm Gaylord Fields: Dennis, of course you're right about "Forget Him" having that ascending melody in common too.
	♥ 2:39pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - and perhaps they got "yeah, yeah, yeah" from Rydell's "We Got Love"?
	2:41pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Dennis Diken: If you need a copy of that 45..."it can be arranged".
	♥ 2:42pm Gaylord Fields: @Dennis: Ha, possibly! However, no "Wildwood Fun" influence detected in the Fab Four.
	♥ 2:42pm Gaylord Fields: "Wildwood Days," I mean.
	2:42pm HyperDose: Todd "knows a guy"
	♥ 2:42pm Dennis Diken: @Todd - hey thanks pally! the wine shall pour!
	2:42pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Milt's! We had the pleasure of hanging out with Leon from Leon's BBQ there one night.
	2:42pm Sissophonic Cheryl: Great to celebrate here with you Dennis, and everybody!
	♥ 2:43pm Dennis Diken: love you dear Sissophonic, welcome! oh Todd, Milt's, oh man oh man!!
	♥ 2:46pm Gaylord Fields: I am happy to have seen the Treniers (as well as Keely Smith) with many assembled here!
	♥ 2:48pm Dennis Diken: yeah Gaylord - don't know if we could top that summer '88 AC nite with Treniers and Sam Butera - 3 SETS EACH!!!!
	♥ 2:48pm Gaylord Fields: Love that toy piano intro on "It's Growing"!
	♥ 2:49pm Gaylord Fields: @Dennis: All that top notch entertainment, and then you can relive it with "cassettes — for da caaah!"
	♥ 2:51pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - me too, man. such a cool, unique hooky intro. Sam was the master merch salesman! boy am I glad we got to see him together. were you and Kathleen at that Bayside show with Anders &Cirell as openers?
	♥ 2:52pm Gaylord Fields: Dennis, we sure were! Best Gabby Hayes impression I heard in the late '90s!
	♥ 2:56pm Gaylord Fields: Man, I haven't heard this Johnny Williams song since back in the day on WWRL! Dennis, you are killing it today!
	♥ 2:58pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - actually, that one is new to me, I flipped over it when I heard it! thanks!
	♥ 3:00pm Andrew in Toronto: I second that @Gaylord!
	3:00pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Sissophonic & I are still laughing about Anders & Cirell's routine about Boris Karloff and Peter Falk.
	3:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Dennis, I feel that you and I might have seen The Swan Silvertones together. Some Gospel show in Tribeca...I don't remember the exact bill but I do remember we dined at Hamburger Harry's beforehand!
	♥ 3:04pm Dennis Diken: @Andrew - no argument here! @Todd & Sissophonic - good, we need laughter. and in answer to your next statement...keep listening, pal!
	♥ 3:04pm David (in London): Evening all.
	♥ 3:05pm Gaylord Fields: Todd, I recall seeing the Soul Stirrers, with the requisite Sam Cooke soundalike doing a faithful version of "Touch the Hem of His Garment," with you. Not certain where we dined, but it wasn't the place that served the "Penalty Box Burger"!
	♥ 3:05pm Dennis Diken: welcome David!!
	♥ 3:06pm David (in London): Thanks Dennis, glad to be aboard. A tip o' the hat to the Boss Groover and to Gaylord.
	♥ 3:07pm Gaylord Fields: Ta, David!
	3:07pm gene sculatti: Thanx for the shout-out, Dennis.

	♥ 3:07pm Dennis Diken: yeah Gene!
	3:08pm big fan: Sam Williams shout out!!!
	♥ 3:08pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd: Sermon on the Altamont!

	♥ 3:11pm Matt Clarke: Good afternoon, Denny and all denizens
	♥ 3:11pm Gaylord Fields: Dennis, you may be aware that "Our Winter Love" is one of my top songs of all time. When the distortion kicks in, ain't nothing easy about listening to it!
