	2:46pm LesleyK: oops- didn't mean to post 2x.. something bugged out on my end
	2:48pm MOM WHIG: How is it going Gaylord - are we sending you in NJ the super super winds and cold later?
	2:49pm Gaylord Fields: It just rained here, Mom Whig. Good for the flowers, so no complaints.
	2:50pm Dennis Diken: @gene - LOVED last week's Atomic Cocktail - been meaning to drop a line! @medson - one of these years I gotta dig out my 78s!
	2:51pm gene sculatti: Thanks, Dennis. Glad you dug the show.
	2:52pm Dennis Diken: @gene - you betcha! hey JoeB!
	2:52pm Matt Clarke: Hey Denny! Hey everyone! Sneaking in a quick listen in between work. Diggin' the Den!
	2:53pm Dennis Diken: glad you can jump in for a bit Matt!
	2:54pm medson: Hey Matt.
	2:55pm Joe B: crazy t-storm rolling through Bayonne right now
	2:56pm Matt Clarke: The hail was insane in lower Manhattan just a bit ago. Watch out!
	2:56pm Candy-O'67: Hey, MOM WHIG! I've been listening, but just popped back in the chat. We had high winds here yesterday evening, strong gusts while I was walking the pup way too late! :)
	2:56pm Matt Clarke: Hey medson!
	2:56pm Candy-O'67: Lovin' this sooo-uuuul set, Denny!
	2:56pm medson: It’s like a hurricane down here in Cape May

	2:59pm Joe B: hey candy-o!
	3:00pm Dennis Diken: @Candy-O - thanks much! @medson - hope it's OK down there, wonder how heavy it will get up in North Jersey?
	3:02pm medson: Crazy wind, rain and it went from bright to almost black skies in minutes. So far so good though.
	3:03pm Matt Clarke: Swingin'!
	3:05pm Dennis Diken: at your service, Matt!
	3:08pm MOM WHIG: Hey Matt and Joe too
	3:08pm Matt Clarke: Hey Mom Whig! How are you doing today?
	3:08pm Joe B: what a crazy varied career Madeline had!
	3:09pm MOM WHIG: Matt - lost power, cable a bit ago - but good to go for now. Those nasty high windy
	3:10pm Joe B: glad yr back Mom. guess we are getting that same storm right about now
	3:11pm Dennis Diken: I just mispoke - the name of the book on Morris Levy is called "Godfather of the Music Business" (not "Soul"!)
	3:11pm Power Papi: 'Godfather of the Music Business' is the Morris Levy book
	3:11pm MOM WHIG: Joe - CRAZY weather for sure -- but glad to be back listening to Denny - at least I have battery operated turn table in case power goes out.
	3:11pm Candy-O'67: Glad your power is back, Mom Whig!
	3:11pm Matt Clarke: @Mom Whig: Oof be safe out there
	3:11pm MOM WHIG: Candy-thanks
	3:12pm MOM WHIG: Could be worse - hail and snow!
	3:12pm LesleyK: Steve Marriott -- 30 years gone as of yesterday. (Your background music reminded me)
	3:13pm myron feld: Dennis, you were probably right the first time -- pretty sure Moishe wrote or co-wrote 92% of all songs, soul or otherwise. At least the label credits indicate it, right?
	3:13pm Dennis Diken: @JoeB - indeed, re Ms Bell! man, I dig her rekkids!
	3:14pm MFlynn: Enjoying everything Dennis including this great honky tonk set! Thanks
	3:15pm MOM WHIG: Hey MFlynn- where are you?
	3:15pm Andrew in Toronto: This is really kicking it!
	3:16pm MOM WHIG: I knew a Mike Flynn in High School
	3:16pm MFlynn: Out in Pa!
	3:17pm MOM WHIG: Not the one then - but good you can join in here (I'm in Va-DC)
	3:17pm Dennis Diken: @LesleyK - wow, I remember the moment I heard the sad news. @MFlynn and Andrew In Toronto - thanks! @myron - HA!
	3:18pm Matt Clarke: Nice platter, Denny
	3:18pm Joe B: Brummelstones!
	3:19pm Dennis Diken: thanks Matt - yes indeed, Joe B!
	3:20pm MFlynn: @Mom Whig..unfortunately there are a lot of us.
	3:20pm MOM WHIG: MFlynn -- exactly!
	3:21pm MOM WHIG: Joe do love those Beau Brummels
	3:22pm Joe B: there was even a Jerry Lewis Capitol Collectors Series disc!
	3:22pm MOM WHIG: Denny - yes, please more Everley Brothers
	3:23pm Joe B: everyone should play more Everlys!
	3:24pm MFlynn: We can never have enough Everly tunes spinning. Been listening to the "Two Yanks" album a lot lately.
	3:25pm Gaylord Fields: I will join that "play more Everlys" pledge.
	3:26pm Matt Clarke: The Two Yanks LP is fantastic
	3:26pm Matt Clarke: Top track
	3:27pm Baby: Man I love this one. Way to rock it Dennis
	3:28pm Gaylord Fields: My rule of freakbeat programming: Where there's Smoke there's Fire.
	3:28pm MOM WHIG: Denny you really know how to pick the BEST each week
	3:29pm Joe B: exactly Gaylord!
	3:29pm DA the DJ: Hi Dennis and Denizens.
	3:30pm Joe B: even though this was a hit, was slightly before my time, so I knew it from the tommy roe version a year or so later
	3:30pm Joe B: Hey DA!
	3:30pm DA the DJ: Hi Joe!
	3:33pm Dennis Diken: hey DA! TAST to all Everly "brothers and sisters" out there - your wish is my command! @MOM WHIG - bless your heart! thanks Matt & Baby!
	3:34pm Reechie: God Save The Shaggs!
	3:35pm Gaylord Fields: The first time I heard the Shaggs, I thought it was all so funny. I know better now. All I hear these days is misery, sorrow, and angst amid the literally and figuratively offbeat.
	3:36pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - indeed, a lot there
	3:36pm Spankyflop: Years ago, I heard a rumor that Tom Cruise optioned the rights to a Shaggs biopic.
	3:36pm DA the DJ: Good movie too.
	3:37pm Mike Conroy: This may be the most diverse set I have ever heard.
	3:39pm Andrew in Toronto: Nice call Gaylord.
	3:40pm Dennis Diken: @Spankyflop - I heard there is a film in the works? @Mike - thanks!
	3:40pm Joe B: as long as adam sandler has not optioned it, I'm fine with whoever
	3:40pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, Andrew!
	3:41pm Joe B: the title cut to today's show! I've been waiting!
	3:41pm MFlynn: Wow, this Cookies song is beautiful!!!!
	3:41pm Candy-O'67: Love this Cookies track!
	3:42pm Baby: Amen Joe B.
	3:42pm Gaylord Fields: This. Song. Right. Here. Russ Titelman was all of 18 when he devised this song.
	3:42pm MOM WHIG: Gaylord - The Cookies -- eating some now - hot from oven
	3:42pm Gaylord Fields: Yay Mom Whig!!!
	3:43pm Joe B: Carole King with the arranger credit. Probably could have been on a hundred other 45s as well
	3:44pm Gaylord Fields: "I Never Dreamed" is perfection. Still gives me literal chills when I hear it! And I mean literal.
	3:45pm Pat in Toronto almost: Saw O Lucky Man in 73 and thought it was great. Then I went and bought the album.
	3:45pm Dennis Diken: to all - I feel the same way where "I Never Dreamed" is concerned. how can such a record even exist?!
	3:45pm Gaylord Fields: Seriously, Russ Titelman has the greatest one-year songwriting career ever!
	3:47pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - plus he played percussion on "She Knows Me Too Well"! (ashtray I think?)
	3:48pm hawaiimarti: Denny - super luv how you mix and match all PLATTERS from so many different venues for us each week - you are "Truly a Gem" to have.
	3:48pm Hackensack Slim: Swingin' Show, Dennis. Top to Bottom!
	3:49pm Gaylord Fields: @Dennis: clink! clink!
	3:49pm Joe B: re - she knows me too well - wikipedia says "microphone boom with screwdriver"
	3:49pm Chop Scott: Bravo Dennis--thanks!
	3:49pm Joe B: I think the ashtray was hal blaine or Russ on beach boys party?
	3:50pm LesleyK: I agree that Cookies song is amazing! Thanks again for a great show!

	3:08pm Joe B: what a crazy varied career Madeline had!
	3:09pm MOM WHIG: Matt - lost power, cable a bit ago - but good to go for now. Those nasty high windy
	3:10pm Joe B: glad yr back Mom. guess we are getting that same storm right about now
	3:11pm Dennis Diken: I just mispoke - the name of the book on Morris Levy is called "Godfather of the Music Business" (not "Soul"!)
	3:11pm Power Papi: 'Godfather of the Music Business' is the Morris Levy book
	3:11pm MOM WHIG: Joe - CRAZY weather for sure -- but glad to be back listening to Denny - at least I have battery operated turn table in case power goes out.
	3:11pm Candy-O'67: Glad your power is back, Mom Whig!
	3:11pm Matt Clarke: @Mom Whig: Oof be safe out there
	3:11pm MOM WHIG: Candy-thanks
	3:12pm MOM WHIG: Could be worse - hail and snow!
	3:12pm LesleyK: Steve Marriott -- 30 years gone as of yesterday. (Your background music reminded me)
	3:13pm myron feld: Dennis, you were probably right the first time -- pretty sure Moishe wrote or co-wrote 92% of all songs, soul or otherwise. At least the label credits indicate it, right?
	3:13pm Dennis Diken: @JoeB - indeed, re Ms Bell! man, I dig her rekkids!
	3:14pm MFlynn: Enjoying everything Dennis including this great honky tonk set! Thanks

	3:15pm Andrew in Toronto: This is really kicking it!
	3:16pm MOM WHIG: I knew a Mike Flynn in High School
	3:16pm MFlynn: Out in Pa!
	3:17pm MOM WHIG: Not the one then - but good you can join in here (I'm in Va-DC)
	3:17pm Dennis Diken: @LesleyK - wow, I remember the moment I heard the sad news. @MFlynn and Andrew In Toronto - thanks! @myron - HA!
	3:18pm Matt Clarke: Nice platter, Denny
	3:18pm Joe B: Brummelstones!
	3:19pm Dennis Diken: thanks Matt - yes indeed, Joe B!
	3:20pm MFlynn: @Mom Whig..unfortunately there are a lot of us.
	3:20pm MOM WHIG: MFlynn -- exactly!
	3:21pm MOM WHIG: Joe do love those Beau Brummels
	3:22pm Joe B: there was even a Jerry Lewis Capitol Collectors Series disc!
	3:22pm MOM WHIG: Denny - yes, please more Everley Brothers
	3:23pm Joe B: everyone should play more Everlys!
	3:24pm MFlynn: We can never have enough Everly tunes spinning. Been listening to the "Two Yanks" album a lot lately.

	3:26pm Matt Clarke: The Two Yanks LP is fantastic
	3:26pm Matt Clarke: Top track

	3:29pm Joe B: exactly Gaylord!
	3:29pm DA the DJ: Hi Dennis and Denizens.
	3:30pm Joe B: even though this was a hit, was slightly before my time, so I knew it from the tommy roe version a year or so later
	3:30pm Joe B: Hey DA!
	3:30pm DA the DJ: Hi Joe!
	3:33pm Dennis Diken: hey DA! TAST to all Everly "brothers and sisters" out there - your wish is my command! @MOM WHIG - bless your heart! thanks Matt & Baby!
	3:34pm Reechie: God Save The Shaggs!
	3:35pm Gaylord Fields: The first time I heard the Shaggs, I thought it was all so funny. I know better now. All I hear these days is misery, sorrow, and angst amid the literally and figuratively offbeat.
	3:36pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - indeed, a lot there
	3:36pm Spankyflop: Years ago, I heard a rumor that Tom Cruise optioned the rights to a Shaggs biopic.
	3:36pm DA the DJ: Good movie too.
	3:37pm Mike Conroy: This may be the most diverse set I have ever heard.
	3:39pm Andrew in Toronto: Nice call Gaylord.
	3:40pm Dennis Diken: @Spankyflop - I heard there is a film in the works? @Mike - thanks!
	3:40pm Joe B: as long as adam sandler has not optioned it, I'm fine with whoever

	3:42pm MOM WHIG: Gaylord - The Cookies -- eating some now - hot from oven
	3:42pm Gaylord Fields: Yay Mom Whig!!!
	3:43pm Joe B: Carole King with the arranger credit. Probably could have been on a hundred other 45s as well
	3:44pm Gaylord Fields: "I Never Dreamed" is perfection. Still gives me literal chills when I hear it! And I mean literal.
	3:45pm Pat in Toronto almost: Saw O Lucky Man in 73 and thought it was great. Then I went and bought the album.
	3:45pm Dennis Diken: to all - I feel the same way where "I Never Dreamed" is concerned. how can such a record even exist?!
	3:45pm Gaylord Fields: Seriously, Russ Titelman has the greatest one-year songwriting career ever!
	3:47pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - plus he played percussion on "She Knows Me Too Well"! (ashtray I think?)
	3:48pm hawaiimarti: Denny - super luv how you mix and match all PLATTERS from so many different venues for us each week - you are "Truly a Gem" to have.
	3:48pm Hackensack Slim: Swingin' Show, Dennis. Top to Bottom!
	3:49pm Gaylord Fields: @Dennis: clink! clink!
	3:49pm Joe B: re - she knows me too well - wikipedia says "microphone boom with screwdriver"
