	12:11pm Uncle Michael: Doc! Is it just me or does Main Spring recapitulate The Congregation?
	12:11pm Doug Schulkind: Andrew Warhola was born and grew up about two miles from where I currently reside.

	12:12pm chresti: \\//Hi spodi!
	12:12pm doctorjazz: For a minute, I thought it was some digital glitch and it was replaying.

	12:13pm Uncle Michael: DIGITAL?!
	12:14pm Wolfgang von Hinkdinkenstein: Paul Chambers 4evah!!
	🛒 12:15pm Alvy Singer: The artist who put "Hard" in Hard Bop. I believe this was Johnny's last recording for Blue Note as well. Hi ya Uncle Michael.
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Alvy!
	12:16pm doctorjazz: I am listening through a phone over the internets, no matter how analog the signal starts.
	12:16pm Wolfgang von Hinkdinkenstein: Alvy! Tell Fielding Melish I say hi!
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: No worries, Doc. It's digital after the first six feet.
	12:18pm Uncle Michael: How's this for some fucking cello?
	12:18pm HyperDose: Digital is a sneaky mistress. You say you like analog, heck you might even lover her. But night after night you find yourself craving the cold, harsh embrace of...DIGITAL DISTORTION!
	12:18pm spodiodi: fucking marvelous.
	12:18pm Artie: So this is what cellos sound like when they do that!
	12:19pm Dean: Yo Yo Ma says, "That is some fucking cello fo' yo mama."
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: Artie!
	12:19pm doctorjazz: Cool cello, NOT mellow!
	12:22pm spodiodi: irie mon
	12:23pm Doug Schulkind: This jam is a different flavor from the cello. Both tasty.
	12:24pm prudy: good afternoon all...
	12:25pm spodiodi: three in a row bringing the grins over here, UM
	🛒 12:26pm Franco Twinkie: Guten morguenaut, Michael.

	12:27pm Uncle Michael: I've bee feeling a lot of love for Supertramp lately.
	12:28pm Uncle Michael: prudy! jmd! jon!
	12:29pm johnk77: nice set selecter stereo separation effects in effect
	12:29pm Asheville Jon: yeah, can get into supertramp at times, but roger hodgson seems like an a-hole to me
	12:29pm dan: Supertramp are the best!!!!!
	12:29pm prudy: gotcha Unicle Michael...
	12:31pm dan: One of the best cello tracks is on Jim Croce's "These Dreams".
	12:31pm spodiodi: give him a break, Jon (he was born naked in the eye of the storm)
	12:33pm spodiodi: oooh. nice.
	12:33pm Dean: Still have the Mobile Fidelity vinyl remaster of CotC, along with press materials I received in college when Even in the Quietist Moments. Didn't retain anything else of theirs, regrettably.
	12:33pm HyperDose: This is perfect for touring Dracula's castle
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: john! Dean! is, dan...is
	12:34pm prudy: mi Dad was an organist so this piece is bittersweet...
	12:34pm doctorjazz: Chest Fever would follow nicely (I'm such a heathen)
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: where were you yesterday, Doc?!
	12:38pm Dean: Apt comment, HyperDose. Gizzi wrote soundtrack music to Andy Warhol's Dracula.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Because I know you're wondering....that's Wolfgang Melz on the bass.
	12:39pm doctorjazz: I was wondering, actually
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: I know.
	12:40pm spodiodi: haha
	🛒 12:42pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy. Here to get my hinky dinked!
	12:43pm densely: Hello!
	🛒 12:43pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey spodi, chresti and Franco! How you holding up, Franco?
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: Phillippe! densely!
	12:44pm dan: Rolling Stone never out Frank Sinatra on their great singers list.
	12:44pm spodiodi: helloha, Phillippe Bastille ✌️
	12:45pm prudy: don't like Frank as much after the last show's DJ from South Africa reveal...
	12:47pm still b/p: Good afternoon. Would be interesting to hear what Frank would've sounded like singing that five years and ten years earlier, (composition date notwithstanding).
	12:48pm Uncle Michael: still b/p!
	12:49pm prudy: this is great shit...
	12:51pm Listening Out There: When the going gets tough, the tough go Bonzos....
	12:51pm Webhamster Henry: I have been summoned out of torpor by the Bonzos.
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: Henry!
	12:51pm still b/p: Freedom is important. I received a free edition of the Epoch Times in the mail today, for the second time, and I've been set straight about the whole freedom thing.
	12:52pm Webhamster Henry: Epoch Times has their own idea about "Normal" too.
	12:52pm HyperDose: @Dean Hey, the more you know! Going to have to give Blood for Dracula a watch.
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: Aaaaaand...I am SO into Klaatu lately!
	12:53pm prudy: b/pL glad to know you're on the right path...
	12:55pm still b/p: Get it on, falun gong, get it on...
	12:56pm prudy: b/p...correct..
	12:57pm doctorjazz: I never "got" Sinatra-one of those artists who either speaks to you, or doesn't (and I've tried)
	12:57pm dan: I thought Klaatu were a Krautrock band at first.
	12:57pm Paul from Toronto: I always liked Sinatra with Jobim
	12:57pm prudy: nice attempt UM..
	12:58pm prudy: never heard of Klaatu...from where?
	12:58pm Listening Out There: Google translate tells me "Frisch Gewagt Ist Halb Gewonnen" means "Freshly diced is half won"...
	12:59pm Paul from Toronto: From here in Toronto
	12:59pm prudy: ah Canadia...
	1:00pm Mike Sin: All the BeatlesGeeks (like myself) own that first Klaatu LP!
	1:00pm Derek in Atlantic City: RIP Muriel’s Treasure. Anyone remember Irwin’s segment?
	1:01pm Listening Out There: @Derek: Yep. Wish Irwin would return to the FMU...
	1:01pm rich the greeb: You’re totally right about the everly’s second act! Roots! That alone warrants that assessment. Their live record from that time. So much great stuff.
	🛒 1:01pm Franco Twinkie: Neither did I Doc. My mom hated Sinatra. My parents took me and my sister to see Oceans 11 when it first came out in 1960. I liked the idea of a criminal gang driving trash trucks.
	1:02pm Mike Sin: The Everly Bros on Warner Bros -- so much obscure gold during their tenure there.
	1:03pm chresti: Hi Phillippe!
	🛒 1:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WooHoo ! VaxJab #1 ! ...keep me company while I see if Gates takes over my mind won't you ?...
	1:03pm RevWaldo: #KlaatuAnonTruth
	1:04pm spodiodi: same here, doc (reminds me of drunken golfers) good to see you, Franco
	1:04pm dan: If this is a set about teachers, will one of the songs be Elton John's "Teacher I Need You?
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: Paul! Mike! Derek! rich! Rev! REV!
	1:04pm prudy: wish I didn't have to work...this music makes me want to dance...
	1:05pm still b/p: I like a lot but surely not all of Sinatra, with varying recipes in the favor assigned to the capabilities, the context, the camp. Now, if someone at a gathering said such a thing, you and me and everyone else would say,"Jeeeezus, don't invite THAT guy again! ..or rescue me if I'm stuck talking to him."
	1:05pm Derek in Atlantic City: https://wfmu.org/playlists/MZ A Calypso rabbit hole to fall into.
	1:06pm BillD: The same label also tried to market "The Phantom " as Jim Morrison with a single called "Calm Before The Storm" and one album.
	🛒 1:07pm Franco Twinkie: I'm okay Phillipe. I have my moments. Yesterday was not so good, I had to talk to my mom's neighbors. Thanks for asking.
	🛒 1:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...do Calypso RabbitHoles feature Caribbean bunny gurlzz ?? ...asking for friend...
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: Bill! Franco, I'm not sure what's going on, but I wish you nothing but the best.
	🛒 1:08pm Franco Twinkie: My mom died.
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: I'm very sorry. That's the worst.
	🛒 1:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Franco - Sincere Condolences. <3 <3 <3
	1:09pm still b/p: Very sorry, Franco. Difficult times in difficult times.
	🛒 1:09pm Franco Twinkie: It is.
	🛒 1:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Lost my Father in 2005 - my Mom is a stubborn old Scorpio & has longevity genes apparently... But the day will come. We loves ya Brother.
	1:10pm prudy: franco...so sorry to hear of your loss...that's a big one...
	1:10pm BillD: You were talking about marketing geniuses at Capitol who ruined Klaatu's career.
	1:10pm HyperDose: Very sorry to hear Franco. I lost my mother a few years ago, so I know what a nightmare it is. Hang in there, and don't hesitate to reach out if you need a friend.
	1:12pm BillD: Franco very sorry for your loss
	1:13pm dan: Sorry for your loss Franco.
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: My mom's been gone 15 years and I still reach for the phone to call her. It gets easier but it never gets gone.
	🛒 1:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If I were George Harrison - I would say no one ever dies.
	1:15pm HyperDose: A book that helped me through it. A very soul nourishing read: www.amazon.com...
	1:16pm Wolfgang von Hinkdinkenstein: I'm so sorry for you, Franco. My mom isn't as we remember her, but she is still with us. Losing my dad makes me hope she will hang on forever. Kondonlenzen.
	🛒 1:16pm Franco Twinkie: Having said that. It had to happen. But I spend a lot of time cracking up thinking of all the funny shit my mom would say, Also, she use to buy whatever records I wanted when I was little. I mean, how many moms bought their kid Uncle Meat by The Mothers Of Invention? She use to walk around the house whistling Cruising For Burgers. She was a great whistler.
	1:18pm Uncle Michael: That's a great mom.
	1:19pm prudy: super Mom...
	1:21pm dan: How did I know in my head you were gonna play the Alan Price song?
	1:21pm still b/p: Meanwhile in a very different house, I was roundly scolded by mom for buying Zeppelin I and Are You Experienced with my own money. I think it was mostly about the appearance of the musicians on the Hendrix cover. To know there was a mom who found no easy menace is heartwarming.
	1:21pm densely: Who is Jack? Was he one of the Three Little Pigs?
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: Because I'd already played two HTJB songs?
	1:22pm Listening Out There: My mother imposed Johnny Mathis on me. Regularly. I have never been the same...
	1:25pm Wolfgang von Hinkdinkenstein: Wolfgang is levatating mit dem Wings!!
	1:25pm HyperDose: @Franco That's what you gotta do, remember the good times. She would always take me to Scotti's so I could get whatever new album came out, only to drive home and be forced to listen to me playing along with it on the drums. She was a saint and the biggest supporter I had.
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: pre-wings!
	1:26pm Dean: Mom talk, sigh, prompted by loss. Again, sorry, Franco. You and I were in similar situations for several months. My mom died last May...almost a year ago...jeez. My mom also introduced me to Johnny Mathis, but I still like him. One of my early purchases was the Hair soundtrack, which I played on the front room console. The song "Sodomy" is playing and she heads to the front room from the kitchen to ask, "What is that you're listening to?" "It's the Hair soundtrack, Mom." "Oh, huh, okay."
	1:27pm Listening Out There: McCartney's got a ~900 page book coming out in November, based around most/all of his songs...
	🛒 1:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I am the youngest of five - & my brother the oldest. & - he was an original Hiippie ...& eventually lead guitarist for a certain very notorious New Hampshuh PunkRawk singer... So - a lot of ground had been broken. Otoh - my parents were older than those of many my age - & there was/is the whole late 20th Century cultural divide in thinking. Insurmountable.
	🛒 1:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Lennon begged to differ about being wrong... Macca was right about Klein though.
	1:29pm prudy: agreed Rev Rabbit: My mother grew up on another planet...
	1:29pm Listening Out There: Always liked McCartney's solo stuff more than Wings. Never cared much for Wings...
	🛒 1:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: prudy their formative years were the Depression then WWII - mine were Watergate, Nixon - & Beatles & Hendrix & everything else...
	1:31pm dan: I don't agree with this view, but my late aunt once said that McCartney should apologize for some of his solo and Wings material.
	1:31pm Roberto: I'm fixing a-hole where the rain gets in
	1:32pm RevWaldo: Franco, sorry for your loss.
	🛒 1:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Nam... Macca is obviously a particular sort of Genius - but he needs a Collaborator to provide some Gravtas & Relevance. If Only there were someone who qualified... If Only...
	🛒 1:32pm Franco Twinkie: Still/bp, she had her limits. WPLJ by The Mothers was the only record ever she told me to take off. All the filthy swearing in Spanish reminded her of our next door neighbors who were heroin dealers from Lincoln Heights. She hated those guys more than you can imagine.
	1:33pm prudy: god how have i not known this song?
	🛒 1:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A not completely unjustified reaction to junky neighbors...
	🛒 1:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...solves nothing - still...
	1:35pm Uncle Michael: Roberto! which song, prudy?
	🛒 1:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: HBD Fats Domino
	1:39pm KWilde: LOVE this Louvin Bros tune!
	1:40pm prudy: sittin and drinkin
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: KWilde!
	1:40pm prudy: I do it often enough...
	1:40pm Doug Schulkind: I'm so sorry, Franco.
	🛒 1:41pm Franco Twinkie: RR, your avatar! My mom gave me Forever Changes for Christmas in 1967.
	1:42pm dan: Is that a young Dolly Parton on this recording?
	1:42pm doctorjazz: So sorry, Franco!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Lorrie Collins.
	1:44pm densely: No, not Dolly. Her little brother played a double neck guitar.
	🛒 1:45pm Brian in UK: Franco, we are all thinking of you in this radio family. Sounds like you have some good memories though. Mom's are nuts but priceless. X
	🛒 1:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Franco that's for You, Brother.
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: BiUK! (yup, mine was nuts)
	1:46pm Michael Shelley: Michael - you do get around the genre world in a pleasing way.
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Michael.
	🛒 1:47pm Franco Twinkie: Indeed Brian! Virginia was the nuttiest of the nuts.
	1:49pm doctorjazz: Mine had lapsed quite far into dementia by the time she passed. Also still think it's time for a call. About 8 years now.
	🛒 1:55pm Brian in UK: Franco, Forever Changes is still with me today. It does not date. What a present. The Bonzoes sing 'We are normal & we want our freedom'. Arthur Lee sings 'We are all normal & we want our freedom'.
	1:58pm johnk77: 1 thing most people who are now younger than about 60 have a hard time understanding is how much cultural conflict there was between youth and their parents between about 1964->74
	2:01pm Webhamster Henry: I have been summoned out of torpor by Harry Nillson.
	2:02pm doctorjazz: My computer music playing set up has stopped working. Thinking of just ditching it, using some sort of server connected to the stereo and just plugging in external hard drives (where most of the music lives). Maybe like the microRendu, but I'm not very knowledgeable on this stuff. Anyone have a link to some helpful, "...For Dummies" site?
	2:02pm dan: I've never heard this song before and I knew by the opening piano that it was Harry Nilsson.
	2:03pm Webhamster Henry: @drjazz if you have itunes or another stream layer like VLC, you can indeed use the stream URLs directly. Drummer: stream0.wfmu.org...
	2:04pm Webhamster Henry: I myself use an old iPhone as an internet radio and podcast player.
	2:06pm doctorjazz: I haha been using JRiver (I actually think that's the source of my PC problem). Did have VLC at one point, easy enough to download again. Thanks, Harry, I'll check out that link.
	🛒 2:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WeegHat
	2:07pm spodiodi: VLC is bomb
	🛒 2:08pm Franco Twinkie: Brian, long after I left home, my mom would call me on the phone and say that The Grateful Dead had sent me some junk in the mail.
	🛒 2:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yer sons & yer daughters are beyond yer cummand ...don't criticize what ya kan't unnderstanddd !...
	2:10pm doctorjazz: I steam through an old Squeezebox Touch, thinking of being able to play music I have on hard drives on my stereo.
	2:11pm still b/p: I incorrectly guessed Chile for the Random Road country on Continental Subway yesterday. Can I get a prize of some kind, for a day late and a different show and a small random Chilean presence? Can I? Luggage or Turtle Wax or something?
	2:12pm johnk77: @derekinac thanks for the link calypsonian mighty sparrow 1 of the greatest frontpersons ever
	2:12pm Stevel: All high-heel sneakers, all the time!
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: still b/p, I'll send you some Rice-A-Roni.
	2:13pm Uncle Michael: Steve!
	2:13pm densely: One of the things I like about most versions of High Heel Sneakers is that it has outrageous lyrics that are delivered in an understated way. Feliciano's dramatics ruin that for me.
	2:14pm doctorjazz: My dad used to call music I played "catz moosic", which was his way of translating the Yiddish for screeching cats. My mom thought she was extremely hip because she bought the Tony Orlando and Dawn album with "Knock Three Times".
	2:14pm Dean: Cover of the Rip Rig & Panic album is excerpted from a famous work by John Dominis, who also did a number of Giuliano Bugialli's cookbook covers. https://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/01/arts/design/john-dominis-a-star-life-magazine-photographer-dies.html
	2:14pm prudy: thanks for the Airplane, UM
	🛒 2:14pm Franco Twinkie: Doesn't mean shit to a tree. Yup.
	🛒 2:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: yup
	2:15pm doctorjazz: Doesn't mean shit to a tree, great lyric.
	2:16pm doctorjazz: Meeting in the morning, off for the afternoon, nice to be able to just sit and listen to Hinky Dinky Time
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: Good to have you...you all!
	2:18pm Lee B: thanks for the Airplane!
	2:19pm Lee B: And for being on the air today
	🛒 2:19pm Brian in UK: For some reason an Airplane line came into my head the other day. 'I thunk, didn't do me no good'.
	2:19pm Uncle Michael: Lee! YW!
	🛒 2:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah - Terence McKenna was right about the Archaic Revival. We went past Families for restoration of Tribe. Rawkers were indeed Shamans - despite the critical backlash against the notion. Anyhow - in the sense of providing Tribe with Guidance not found elsewhere in the Culture. Townshend for instance concluded that Tommy was about turning back to Family - & what to do about that...
	🛒 2:21pm Brian in UK: Franco, cool avatar.
	🛒 2:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah Franco - completely Righteous.
	2:22pm doctorjazz: Agree, very cool avatar.
	2:24pm spodiodi: Franco, love the old B&W pic of your Mom too
	2:25pm still b/p: That Kassel style seem a little dated for '38? Was that a band that just hung on with their established sound? Or were they in similar company, with that flavor still common? I don't know from nothing in details of period's music history. Just the general sound to my ear expectations.
	🛒 2:25pm Brian in UK: Uncle you are freeform as fuck. Thank you.
	🛒 2:26pm Franco Twinkie: Although she was no hippie, she sure had to put up with a lot of hippie nonsense. She would say to me "When you ran away to join the hippies...." I never ran away.
	🛒 2:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'I suppose one of my kids had to turn out wild'... Ma - I barely even put a ball thru a window...
	2:28pm still b/p: But were they waiting outside for you in their painted microbus? "Fraaaaaanco...come with ussss..."
	🛒 2:29pm Franco Twinkie: Haha! If they only knew!
	2:29pm densely: Where's Lester Bowie's version of High Heel Sneakers?
	2:31pm spodiodi: the sun is a lot of fun... it's a gas
	2:31pm dan: I take it Mr. Science replaces the weekly version of Caravan.
	🛒 2:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Why Does the Sun Shine? ...& follow-up explains actually - it's plasma not gas... ♏︎Scorpio brutha shouting out to housewives... Thx for the representation dude...
	2:33pm doctorjazz: Still b/p @ 2:25- I has also places that Kassel mugs to late 20s, was surprised to see 1938. It was dated by them.
	2:33pm spodiodi: i love "Why Does the Sun Shine?" RR. i was just quoting the "inter-planet janet" ditty
	2:33pm spodiodi: i nearly quoted WDTSS first
	2:33pm prudy: thanks UM for a wonderful show...
	🛒 2:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She be a galaxy girl spodi.
	2:35pm spodiodi: "She's been to the Sun, it's a lot of fun It's a hot-spot, It's a gas! Hydrogen and helium in a big, bright, glowing mass It's a star, it's a star! So Janet got an autograph!" indeed, RRN63 B-)
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: 1938 could be wrong!
	2:36pm Doug Schulkind: Makes me want to hear Spinal Tap's "You Don't Know What Glove Is."
	2:37pm spodiodi: sniffs
	2:37pm spodiodi: Janet was wise to pass we earthlings by
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: recoded in 1937 for a 1938 release: adp.library.ucsb.edu...
	🛒 2:39pm Brian in UK: Thanks Uncle, time for some grub. Stay safe everyone.
	2:39pm Webhamster Henry: I did a radio special once on Singing Science records: jhhl.net...
	🛒 2:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WebHenry - can we get more than a minute ?!
	2:43pm spodiodi: cool, Webhamster Henry. is the actual show link available? (that one you posted sounds like a promo only)
	2:50pm johnk77: great show herbie hancock's car: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1SQn4stkXA&list=WL&index=1&t=1s
	2:51pm spodiodi: Snowman ftw
	2:52pm dan: Petula Clark is so amazing in both her beauty and talent.
	🛒 2:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...She's So Petula...
	2:54pm Uncle Michael: So is Robin.
	2:55pm dan: Robin Gibb was 21 here, he sounds older.
	2:55pm Webhamster Henry: @spodiodi, @rr63 I have it digitized, I'll put it up sometime. Meanwhile you can check out my other WBAI shows jhhl.net...

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

	12:14pm Wolfgang von Hinkdinkenstein: Paul Chambers 4evah!!
	🛒 12:15pm Alvy Singer: The artist who put "Hard" in Hard Bop. I believe this was Johnny's last recording for Blue Note as well. Hi ya Uncle Michael.
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Alvy!
	12:16pm doctorjazz: I am listening through a phone over the internets, no matter how analog the signal starts.
	12:16pm Wolfgang von Hinkdinkenstein: Alvy! Tell Fielding Melish I say hi!
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: No worries, Doc. It's digital after the first six feet.
	12:18pm Uncle Michael: How's this for some fucking cello?
	12:18pm HyperDose: Digital is a sneaky mistress. You say you like analog, heck you might even lover her. But night after night you find yourself craving the cold, harsh embrace of...DIGITAL DISTORTION!
	12:18pm spodiodi: fucking marvelous.
	12:18pm Artie: So this is what cellos sound like when they do that!
	12:19pm Dean: Yo Yo Ma says, "That is some fucking cello fo' yo mama."
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: Artie!
	12:19pm doctorjazz: Cool cello, NOT mellow!
	12:22pm spodiodi: irie mon
	12:23pm Doug Schulkind: This jam is a different flavor from the cello. Both tasty.

	12:29pm johnk77: nice set selecter stereo separation effects in effect
	12:29pm Asheville Jon: yeah, can get into supertramp at times, but roger hodgson seems like an a-hole to me
	12:29pm dan: Supertramp are the best!!!!!
	12:29pm prudy: gotcha Unicle Michael...
	12:31pm dan: One of the best cello tracks is on Jim Croce's "These Dreams".
	12:31pm spodiodi: give him a break, Jon (he was born naked in the eye of the storm)
	12:33pm spodiodi: oooh. nice.
	12:33pm Dean: Still have the Mobile Fidelity vinyl remaster of CotC, along with press materials I received in college when Even in the Quietist Moments. Didn't retain anything else of theirs, regrettably.
	12:33pm HyperDose: This is perfect for touring Dracula's castle
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: john! Dean! is, dan...is
	12:34pm prudy: mi Dad was an organist so this piece is bittersweet...
	12:34pm doctorjazz: Chest Fever would follow nicely (I'm such a heathen)
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: where were you yesterday, Doc?!
	12:38pm Dean: Apt comment, HyperDose. Gizzi wrote soundtrack music to Andy Warhol's Dracula.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Because I know you're wondering....that's Wolfgang Melz on the bass.
	12:39pm doctorjazz: I was wondering, actually
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: I know.
	12:40pm spodiodi: haha
	🛒 12:42pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy. Here to get my hinky dinked!
	12:43pm densely: Hello!
	🛒 12:43pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey spodi, chresti and Franco! How you holding up, Franco?
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: Phillippe! densely!
	12:44pm dan: Rolling Stone never out Frank Sinatra on their great singers list.
	12:44pm spodiodi: helloha, Phillippe Bastille ✌️
	12:45pm prudy: don't like Frank as much after the last show's DJ from South Africa reveal...
	12:47pm still b/p: Good afternoon. Would be interesting to hear what Frank would've sounded like singing that five years and ten years earlier, (composition date notwithstanding).
	12:48pm Uncle Michael: still b/p!
	12:49pm prudy: this is great shit...
	12:51pm Listening Out There: When the going gets tough, the tough go Bonzos....
	12:51pm Webhamster Henry: I have been summoned out of torpor by the Bonzos.
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: Henry!
	12:51pm still b/p: Freedom is important. I received a free edition of the Epoch Times in the mail today, for the second time, and I've been set straight about the whole freedom thing.
	12:52pm Webhamster Henry: Epoch Times has their own idea about "Normal" too.
	12:52pm HyperDose: @Dean Hey, the more you know! Going to have to give Blood for Dracula a watch.
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: Aaaaaand...I am SO into Klaatu lately!
	12:53pm prudy: b/pL glad to know you're on the right path...
	12:55pm still b/p: Get it on, falun gong, get it on...
	12:56pm prudy: b/p...correct..
	12:57pm doctorjazz: I never "got" Sinatra-one of those artists who either speaks to you, or doesn't (and I've tried)
	12:57pm dan: I thought Klaatu were a Krautrock band at first.
	12:57pm Paul from Toronto: I always liked Sinatra with Jobim
	12:57pm prudy: nice attempt UM..
	12:58pm prudy: never heard of Klaatu...from where?
	12:58pm Listening Out There: Google translate tells me "Frisch Gewagt Ist Halb Gewonnen" means "Freshly diced is half won"...
	12:59pm Paul from Toronto: From here in Toronto
	12:59pm prudy: ah Canadia...
	1:00pm Mike Sin: All the BeatlesGeeks (like myself) own that first Klaatu LP!
	1:00pm Derek in Atlantic City: RIP Muriel’s Treasure. Anyone remember Irwin’s segment?
	1:01pm Listening Out There: @Derek: Yep. Wish Irwin would return to the FMU...
	1:01pm rich the greeb: You’re totally right about the everly’s second act! Roots! That alone warrants that assessment. Their live record from that time. So much great stuff.
	🛒 1:01pm Franco Twinkie: Neither did I Doc. My mom hated Sinatra. My parents took me and my sister to see Oceans 11 when it first came out in 1960. I liked the idea of a criminal gang driving trash trucks.
	1:02pm Mike Sin: The Everly Bros on Warner Bros -- so much obscure gold during their tenure there.
	1:03pm chresti: Hi Phillippe!
	🛒 1:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WooHoo ! VaxJab #1 ! ...keep me company while I see if Gates takes over my mind won't you ?...
	1:03pm RevWaldo: #KlaatuAnonTruth
	1:04pm spodiodi: same here, doc (reminds me of drunken golfers) good to see you, Franco
	1:04pm dan: If this is a set about teachers, will one of the songs be Elton John's "Teacher I Need You?
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: Paul! Mike! Derek! rich! Rev! REV!
	1:04pm prudy: wish I didn't have to work...this music makes me want to dance...
	1:05pm still b/p: I like a lot but surely not all of Sinatra, with varying recipes in the favor assigned to the capabilities, the context, the camp. Now, if someone at a gathering said such a thing, you and me and everyone else would say,"Jeeeezus, don't invite THAT guy again! ..or rescue me if I'm stuck talking to him."
	1:05pm Derek in Atlantic City: https://wfmu.org/playlists/MZ A Calypso rabbit hole to fall into.
	1:06pm BillD: The same label also tried to market "The Phantom " as Jim Morrison with a single called "Calm Before The Storm" and one album.
	🛒 1:07pm Franco Twinkie: I'm okay Phillipe. I have my moments. Yesterday was not so good, I had to talk to my mom's neighbors. Thanks for asking.
	🛒 1:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...do Calypso RabbitHoles feature Caribbean bunny gurlzz ?? ...asking for friend...
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: Bill! Franco, I'm not sure what's going on, but I wish you nothing but the best.
	🛒 1:08pm Franco Twinkie: My mom died.
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: I'm very sorry. That's the worst.
	🛒 1:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Franco - Sincere Condolences. <3 <3 <3
	1:09pm still b/p: Very sorry, Franco. Difficult times in difficult times.
	🛒 1:09pm Franco Twinkie: It is.
	🛒 1:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Lost my Father in 2005 - my Mom is a stubborn old Scorpio & has longevity genes apparently... But the day will come. We loves ya Brother.
	1:10pm prudy: franco...so sorry to hear of your loss...that's a big one...
	1:10pm BillD: You were talking about marketing geniuses at Capitol who ruined Klaatu's career.
	1:10pm HyperDose: Very sorry to hear Franco. I lost my mother a few years ago, so I know what a nightmare it is. Hang in there, and don't hesitate to reach out if you need a friend.
	1:12pm BillD: Franco very sorry for your loss
	1:13pm dan: Sorry for your loss Franco.
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: My mom's been gone 15 years and I still reach for the phone to call her. It gets easier but it never gets gone.
	🛒 1:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If I were George Harrison - I would say no one ever dies.
	1:15pm HyperDose: A book that helped me through it. A very soul nourishing read: www.amazon.com...
	1:16pm Wolfgang von Hinkdinkenstein: I'm so sorry for you, Franco. My mom isn't as we remember her, but she is still with us. Losing my dad makes me hope she will hang on forever. Kondonlenzen.
	🛒 1:16pm Franco Twinkie: Having said that. It had to happen. But I spend a lot of time cracking up thinking of all the funny shit my mom would say, Also, she use to buy whatever records I wanted when I was little. I mean, how many moms bought their kid Uncle Meat by The Mothers Of Invention? She use to walk around the house whistling Cruising For Burgers. She was a great whistler.
	1:18pm Uncle Michael: That's a great mom.
	1:19pm prudy: super Mom...
	1:21pm dan: How did I know in my head you were gonna play the Alan Price song?
	1:21pm still b/p: Meanwhile in a very different house, I was roundly scolded by mom for buying Zeppelin I and Are You Experienced with my own money. I think it was mostly about the appearance of the musicians on the Hendrix cover. To know there was a mom who found no easy menace is heartwarming.
	1:21pm densely: Who is Jack? Was he one of the Three Little Pigs?
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: Because I'd already played two HTJB songs?
	1:22pm Listening Out There: My mother imposed Johnny Mathis on me. Regularly. I have never been the same...
	1:25pm Wolfgang von Hinkdinkenstein: Wolfgang is levatating mit dem Wings!!
	1:25pm HyperDose: @Franco That's what you gotta do, remember the good times. She would always take me to Scotti's so I could get whatever new album came out, only to drive home and be forced to listen to me playing along with it on the drums. She was a saint and the biggest supporter I had.
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: pre-wings!
	1:26pm Dean: Mom talk, sigh, prompted by loss. Again, sorry, Franco. You and I were in similar situations for several months. My mom died last May...almost a year ago...jeez. My mom also introduced me to Johnny Mathis, but I still like him. One of my early purchases was the Hair soundtrack, which I played on the front room console. The song "Sodomy" is playing and she heads to the front room from the kitchen to ask, "What is that you're listening to?" "It's the Hair soundtrack, Mom." "Oh, huh, okay."
	1:27pm Listening Out There: McCartney's got a ~900 page book coming out in November, based around most/all of his songs...
	🛒 1:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I am the youngest of five - & my brother the oldest. & - he was an original Hiippie ...& eventually lead guitarist for a certain very notorious New Hampshuh PunkRawk singer... So - a lot of ground had been broken. Otoh - my parents were older than those of many my age - & there was/is the whole late 20th Century cultural divide in thinking. Insurmountable.
	🛒 1:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Lennon begged to differ about being wrong... Macca was right about Klein though.
	1:29pm prudy: agreed Rev Rabbit: My mother grew up on another planet...
	1:29pm Listening Out There: Always liked McCartney's solo stuff more than Wings. Never cared much for Wings...
	🛒 1:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: prudy their formative years were the Depression then WWII - mine were Watergate, Nixon - & Beatles & Hendrix & everything else...
	1:31pm dan: I don't agree with this view, but my late aunt once said that McCartney should apologize for some of his solo and Wings material.
	1:31pm Roberto: I'm fixing a-hole where the rain gets in
	1:32pm RevWaldo: Franco, sorry for your loss.
	🛒 1:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Nam... Macca is obviously a particular sort of Genius - but he needs a Collaborator to provide some Gravtas & Relevance. If Only there were someone who qualified... If Only...
	🛒 1:32pm Franco Twinkie: Still/bp, she had her limits. WPLJ by The Mothers was the only record ever she told me to take off. All the filthy swearing in Spanish reminded her of our next door neighbors who were heroin dealers from Lincoln Heights. She hated those guys more than you can imagine.
	1:33pm prudy: god how have i not known this song?
	🛒 1:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A not completely unjustified reaction to junky neighbors...
	🛒 1:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...solves nothing - still...
	1:35pm Uncle Michael: Roberto! which song, prudy?
	🛒 1:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: HBD Fats Domino
	1:39pm KWilde: LOVE this Louvin Bros tune!
	1:40pm prudy: sittin and drinkin
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: KWilde!
	1:40pm prudy: I do it often enough...
	1:40pm Doug Schulkind: I'm so sorry, Franco.
	🛒 1:41pm Franco Twinkie: RR, your avatar! My mom gave me Forever Changes for Christmas in 1967.
	1:42pm dan: Is that a young Dolly Parton on this recording?
	1:42pm doctorjazz: So sorry, Franco!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Lorrie Collins.
	1:44pm densely: No, not Dolly. Her little brother played a double neck guitar.
	🛒 1:45pm Brian in UK: Franco, we are all thinking of you in this radio family. Sounds like you have some good memories though. Mom's are nuts but priceless. X
	🛒 1:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Franco that's for You, Brother.
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: BiUK! (yup, mine was nuts)
	1:46pm Michael Shelley: Michael - you do get around the genre world in a pleasing way.
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Michael.
	🛒 1:47pm Franco Twinkie: Indeed Brian! Virginia was the nuttiest of the nuts.
	1:49pm doctorjazz: Mine had lapsed quite far into dementia by the time she passed. Also still think it's time for a call. About 8 years now.
	🛒 1:55pm Brian in UK: Franco, Forever Changes is still with me today. It does not date. What a present. The Bonzoes sing 'We are normal & we want our freedom'. Arthur Lee sings 'We are all normal & we want our freedom'.
	1:58pm johnk77: 1 thing most people who are now younger than about 60 have a hard time understanding is how much cultural conflict there was between youth and their parents between about 1964->74
	2:01pm Webhamster Henry: I have been summoned out of torpor by Harry Nillson.
	2:02pm doctorjazz: My computer music playing set up has stopped working. Thinking of just ditching it, using some sort of server connected to the stereo and just plugging in external hard drives (where most of the music lives). Maybe like the microRendu, but I'm not very knowledgeable on this stuff. Anyone have a link to some helpful, "...For Dummies" site?
	2:02pm dan: I've never heard this song before and I knew by the opening piano that it was Harry Nilsson.
	2:03pm Webhamster Henry: @drjazz if you have itunes or another stream layer like VLC, you can indeed use the stream URLs directly. Drummer: stream0.wfmu.org...
	2:04pm Webhamster Henry: I myself use an old iPhone as an internet radio and podcast player.
	2:06pm doctorjazz: I haha been using JRiver (I actually think that's the source of my PC problem). Did have VLC at one point, easy enough to download again. Thanks, Harry, I'll check out that link.
	🛒 2:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WeegHat
	2:07pm spodiodi: VLC is bomb
	🛒 2:08pm Franco Twinkie: Brian, long after I left home, my mom would call me on the phone and say that The Grateful Dead had sent me some junk in the mail.
	🛒 2:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yer sons & yer daughters are beyond yer cummand ...don't criticize what ya kan't unnderstanddd !...
	2:10pm doctorjazz: I steam through an old Squeezebox Touch, thinking of being able to play music I have on hard drives on my stereo.
	2:11pm still b/p: I incorrectly guessed Chile for the Random Road country on Continental Subway yesterday. Can I get a prize of some kind, for a day late and a different show and a small random Chilean presence? Can I? Luggage or Turtle Wax or something?
	2:12pm johnk77: @derekinac thanks for the link calypsonian mighty sparrow 1 of the greatest frontpersons ever
	2:12pm Stevel: All high-heel sneakers, all the time!
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: still b/p, I'll send you some Rice-A-Roni.
	2:13pm Uncle Michael: Steve!
	2:13pm densely: One of the things I like about most versions of High Heel Sneakers is that it has outrageous lyrics that are delivered in an understated way. Feliciano's dramatics ruin that for me.
	2:14pm doctorjazz: My dad used to call music I played "catz moosic", which was his way of translating the Yiddish for screeching cats. My mom thought she was extremely hip because she bought the Tony Orlando and Dawn album with "Knock Three Times".
	2:14pm Dean: Cover of the Rip Rig & Panic album is excerpted from a famous work by John Dominis, who also did a number of Giuliano Bugialli's cookbook covers. https://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/01/arts/design/john-dominis-a-star-life-magazine-photographer-dies.html
	2:14pm prudy: thanks for the Airplane, UM
	🛒 2:14pm Franco Twinkie: Doesn't mean shit to a tree. Yup.
	🛒 2:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: yup
	2:15pm doctorjazz: Doesn't mean shit to a tree, great lyric.
	2:16pm doctorjazz: Meeting in the morning, off for the afternoon, nice to be able to just sit and listen to Hinky Dinky Time
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: Good to have you...you all!
	2:18pm Lee B: thanks for the Airplane!
	2:19pm Lee B: And for being on the air today
	🛒 2:19pm Brian in UK: For some reason an Airplane line came into my head the other day. 'I thunk, didn't do me no good'.
	2:19pm Uncle Michael: Lee! YW!
	🛒 2:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah - Terence McKenna was right about the Archaic Revival. We went past Families for restoration of Tribe. Rawkers were indeed Shamans - despite the critical backlash against the notion. Anyhow - in the sense of providing Tribe with Guidance not found elsewhere in the Culture. Townshend for instance concluded that Tommy was about turning back to Family - & what to do about that...
	🛒 2:21pm Brian in UK: Franco, cool avatar.
	🛒 2:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah Franco - completely Righteous.
	2:22pm doctorjazz: Agree, very cool avatar.
	2:24pm spodiodi: Franco, love the old B&W pic of your Mom too
	2:25pm still b/p: That Kassel style seem a little dated for '38? Was that a band that just hung on with their established sound? Or were they in similar company, with that flavor still common? I don't know from nothing in details of period's music history. Just the general sound to my ear expectations.
	🛒 2:25pm Brian in UK: Uncle you are freeform as fuck. Thank you.
	🛒 2:26pm Franco Twinkie: Although she was no hippie, she sure had to put up with a lot of hippie nonsense. She would say to me "When you ran away to join the hippies...." I never ran away.
	🛒 2:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'I suppose one of my kids had to turn out wild'... Ma - I barely even put a ball thru a window...
	2:28pm still b/p: But were they waiting outside for you in their painted microbus? "Fraaaaaanco...come with ussss..."
	🛒 2:29pm Franco Twinkie: Haha! If they only knew!
	2:29pm densely: Where's Lester Bowie's version of High Heel Sneakers?
	2:31pm spodiodi: the sun is a lot of fun... it's a gas
	2:31pm dan: I take it Mr. Science replaces the weekly version of Caravan.
	🛒 2:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Why Does the Sun Shine? ...& follow-up explains actually - it's plasma not gas... ♏︎Scorpio brutha shouting out to housewives... Thx for the representation dude...
	2:33pm doctorjazz: Still b/p @ 2:25- I has also places that Kassel mugs to late 20s, was surprised to see 1938. It was dated by them.
	2:33pm spodiodi: i love "Why Does the Sun Shine?" RR. i was just quoting the "inter-planet janet" ditty
	2:33pm spodiodi: i nearly quoted WDTSS first
	2:33pm prudy: thanks UM for a wonderful show...
	🛒 2:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She be a galaxy girl spodi.
	2:35pm spodiodi: "She's been to the Sun, it's a lot of fun It's a hot-spot, It's a gas! Hydrogen and helium in a big, bright, glowing mass It's a star, it's a star! So Janet got an autograph!" indeed, RRN63 B-)
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: 1938 could be wrong!
	2:36pm Doug Schulkind: Makes me want to hear Spinal Tap's "You Don't Know What Glove Is."
	2:37pm spodiodi: sniffs
	2:37pm spodiodi: Janet was wise to pass we earthlings by
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: recoded in 1937 for a 1938 release: adp.library.ucsb.edu...
	🛒 2:39pm Brian in UK: Thanks Uncle, time for some grub. Stay safe everyone.
	2:39pm Webhamster Henry: I did a radio special once on Singing Science records: jhhl.net...
	🛒 2:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WebHenry - can we get more than a minute ?!
	2:43pm spodiodi: cool, Webhamster Henry. is the actual show link available? (that one you posted sounds like a promo only)
	2:50pm johnk77: great show herbie hancock's car: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1SQn4stkXA&list=WL&index=1&t=1s
	2:51pm spodiodi: Snowman ftw
	2:52pm dan: Petula Clark is so amazing in both her beauty and talent.
	🛒 2:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...She's So Petula...
	2:54pm Uncle Michael: So is Robin.
	2:55pm dan: Robin Gibb was 21 here, he sounds older.
