	11:19am clarke: wow! this Rubinoos is, uh, heartening!!
	11:20am clarke: i still have a bad taste in my Rub's mouf, because that five-song EP of theirs is the last thing i put on my "killer" turntable - it is SO not-good.
	11:20am egould310: Ichiban hit record!
	11:20am clarke: bad production in every way
	11:21am Handy Haversack: Walkerville, MI, clarke. Oceana Co. Hoping to meet up with listener Corey when we're out there.
	11:22am clarke: going to stalk that... brb
	11:22am Hughie Considine: @Michael, one of the Grateful Dead's 25-minute takes on "Lovelight" might change your mind.
	11:22am Hughie Considine: @Michael, one of the Grateful Dead's 25-minute takes on "Lovelight" might change your mind.
	11:23am Hughie Considine: oops - sorry bout that
	11:23am Handy Haversack: Look for School Section lake, ~5.5 miles north of Walkerville. We're on the E-W stretch of road near there.
	11:25am clarke: wow, that's not too far from Leland, where i have played before - and home to Tobin Sprout (gBV)
	11:25am Frank Zaatar: Are Canadians so prudish that Ronnie had to censor the words "doodly-squat?"
	11:25am clarke: there's a nice art community around leland, MI
	11:28am Sean: What no bongo feet?
	11:28am clarke: i have also been to Petosky - across state, i think - where Hemingway grew up - nice area!!
	11:28am Handy Haversack: That's very close to where Corey works.
	11:29am Hoboken Jack: Helloooo Michael, Baby, Handy, Baggy, Greg, everybody!
	11:29am clarke: yes, nice area!!!
	11:30am Shri: @serious_cactus why are white ppl obsessed with fixing things?
	11:31am Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack!
	11:31am Sean: AGAIN with the pie! You guys are killin'me.
	11:31am Avrilinmay: PREACH! (about the olympics)
	11:32am clarke: sorry!!
	11:32am Handy Haversack: Yeah, Western MI is pretty sweet.
	11:33am Joe B: hey Michael and everyone
	11:33am clarke: howdy!
	11:33am phat in Lincoln: I really should just make it a point to own every NRBQ record.
	11:35am Rebus: As someone who doesn't own any NRBQ records, where should I start?
	11:35am Handy Haversack: OK, last loads heading to car. Thanks for the tunes, MS. We will try to pick it up in the car as long as we can. Be well, everyone. Have a great week.
	11:35am clarke: with NO MovieTime (and NO Frank): i was quite underwhelmed by Mona Lisa, last night (TCM). it had been way over-hyped to me.
	11:36am clarke: @Rebus: good start: Live At Yankee Stadium (it ain't live)
	11:36am HyperDose: Take care of yourselves, Handy. I'll be thinking about you guys!
	11:36am Hoboken Jack: Travel safe, Handy!!!
	11:36am Hoboken Jack: Hey Joe!!
	11:37am clarke: happy trails HH!!
	11:37am Hughie Considine: @Rebus, I would go for "All Hopped Up."
	11:37am Shri: @real_cactus why ppl so obsessed with being good?
	11:38am Handy Haversack: Thanks, pals!
	11:38am clarke: taking Hughie's point: almost any of their "classic line-up" albums will do - also, any live bootlegs of same era.
	11:38am Bob: That Joey tribute record has some great tracks and a couple stinkers too. Penn & Teller, ugh. Peter Case, Los Lobos, Buddy and Jim, Robbie all nail it. Joey and Kami provide the best track, of course. Thats my review.
	11:38am Sean: "Missed it by that much" - Don Adams review of The Kirkbys' single
	11:39am Baja Joe: Nothing worse than stale Boston Baked Beans candies... or is there?
	11:39am clarke: Thunderbirds used to play once a month at Chief's in baton rouge when i was at lsu - unreal.
	11:39am Moammar: Jimmie by far the superior Vaughan. Thank you for listening.
	11:42am P-90: Agreed, Jimmy is the #1 hit Vaughn
	11:43am clarke: true - but the 'secret weapon' of the Thunderbirds was ALWAYS their first bass player: keith ferguson
	11:43am Rebus: @clarke, @Hughie: Thanks!!
	11:44am clarke: enjoy Rebus!! it's a fun ride.
	11:45am Moammar: Used to run into the post T-Birds Keith Ferguson in Austin clubs staring glassy eyed at things in the middle distance.
	11:45am Bob: I agree on Jimmy but i've been going back to SRV lately. It's like the Dead. You have to get past the fans. Porky white dudes in blues hats playing guitars that are way too good for them on the weekend. It's taken me a long time to get past that part. His records are good though.
	11:45am Hughie Considine: I could not get my kids to appreciate the anarchic silliness of the Marx Brothers, and it hit me hard at first. Generationally, I think the current crop of kids just don't find adults behaving insanely as funny as we did.
	11:45am phat in Lincoln: I have trouble understanding a person not enjoying the Marx Brothers. I didn't know such a person existed. I'm not kidding. I just believed everyone enjoyed them, more or less. Huh.
	11:45am Maggie B.: Michael, that was the Thalia on 94th or 95th between Broadway and West End. My old nabe.
	11:45am clarke: well Keith got pretty junked-out for a while there
	11:45am Frank Zaatar: Michael. have you read Harpo Speaks? If not, you must.
	11:45am Jimmy Wipper: Harpo's autobiography, Harpo Speaks! is fantastic!
	11:46am juan: Michael, I think the theatre where you went to see Duck Soup might have been the Thalia which was on the side street where Symphony Space is now
	11:46am gf2002: Saw a great noir from 1947 this week: Desperate, with Steve Brodie and Raymond Burr. Worth seeking out, great cinematography.
	11:46am Hughie Considine: Good call, @Maggie. The Thalia indeed!
	11:46am clarke: WIPPAAAAAAH!!! WHERE THE HELL U BEEEN??
	11:47am Sean: Hey I went to see Marty Stuart with one of those Bakersfield Breakers. Can't wait for them to have a gig soon too.
	11:47am clarke: taking the summer off is NOT an option, sir!!
	11:48am Maggie B.: I think there was a tiny bookstore nearby and I remember buying Harpo's autobiography. Either there or closer to 90th St.
	11:49am Bob: I like Kurt well enough but Sirius radio listeners like me gotta ask, is there some conspiracy to make us love Kurt Baker and Jessie Malin? Do they have nude pictures of Lil' Steven? Is Mr Sirius their uncle? Seriously. Every five minutes. I'll stop now.
	11:49am clarke: steve brodie - awesome!! so underrated!!
	11:49am Jimmy Wipper: I'm ALWAYS here, but we've been listening some of the time after the show airs. Not taking the summer off...yet!
	11:49am gf2002: Stevie Ray unfortunately falls victim to something that happens a lot. The blame for some of his fans and his copycat artists fell on him and gets in the way of the music. The dude could play his a** off, and almost by himself revived the blues as a viable commercial genre.
	11:50am Vertual: Similar experience for me Michael. A much older cousin took me to see Marx Brothers movies on a big screen in the 70s at about that age. Life changing.
	11:50am clarke: how goes on the Va-shore?? hot i hear.
	11:51am Jimmy Wipper: Hot and covidy!
	11:51am clarke: that's EVERYwhere, JW
	11:51am gf2002: @clarke - Steve Brodie is terrific in that lead role. He looks and acts like the classic noir character who gets drawn into things totally out of his control. Great film! Burr is fantastic as the gangster lead too.
	11:52am Dan from Delco: One of my dear friends is an orphan from El Salvador. She was adopted in 1991. Her husband is a refugee from Liberia. Beautiful family.
	11:52am Don Gorden: Was the movie theater, north riverside Luxury 6 Theater ??, used to pass it almost every day back in the 90s working in NYC
	11:52am clarke: stevie ray was actually roadie'ing for the Thunderbirds on a few of those later shows i saw in baton rouge.
	11:53am Jimmy Wipper: True, but a mixture of right wing idiots in Virginia Beach and a flood of tourists has made this area especially covidy. Going maskless lasted about 2 weeks. Ughhh.
	11:53am clarke: yes, too bad it is getting ruined for the smart folk.
	11:54am clarke: oh, Jim: i remembered that one of those shows we did at Va-beach was with The Posies
	11:55am P-90: …goddamn white radio stations…
	11:56am Hughie Considine: Went to high school with Sylvia's son, Joey Robinson, who was a good guy. Favorite band: The Moments.
	11:56am Jimmy Wipper: Really? I saw The Posies several times here, but my memory is not what it used to be. At Peabody's maybe?
	11:56am clarke: it was at nemo's i think??
	11:57am Jimmy Wipper: Hmmm, never heard of it.
	11:57am clarke: between us we might have ONE memory
	11:58am clarke: will get to the bottom of this, eventually. just need to ask chandler, ha ha.
	11:58am Michael Shelley: I think it was at Uzzel's
	11:58am clarke: ha ha ha ha. probably!!
	11:58am Jimmy Wipper: I think that you're right. Or less than one. You're righ Michaelt, it could have been at Uzzle's Downunder!
	11:59am Listener Baby: Baby. Was thinking just yesterday that you were WAY overdue for some Apples. And here you go!!
	11:59am clarke: speaking of down under...where's eddy??
	12:00pm clarke: this is the news dept.
	12:00pm Michael Shelley: If I'm remembering correctly, The Full House Band opened.
	12:01pm clarke: Stinkfinger!!!!
	12:01pm gf2002: We got ZZ Hill this morning, any ZZ Top cued up? RIP Dusty Hill.
	12:02pm Jimmy Wipper: They were the ones with the Les Paul?
	12:02pm clarke: dusty hit the road, but lives on in terlingua
	12:03pm clarke: with p-90's.
	12:03pm dk50b: Michael, did you let Sylvia know your station played race records?
	12:03pm clarke: double-dippin' Apples!! yep!!
	12:05pm gf2002: Ernie sounds more like Gerry Marsden!
	12:08pm Bob: Trying to imagine what ZZ Top record Michael would play. If he played one. Which he probably wouldn't.
	12:08pm Joe B: life-altering LP here for me as an 11/12 yr old
	12:09pm clarke: Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers!!
	12:10pm Paul: Michael, Since you remember parking on a steep road, perhaps you saw Duck Soup at the Metro theater, on Broadway at 99th St. 99th Street is quite steep between Riverside Drive and West End Avenue.
	12:10pm clarke: and, although dusty was not involved, i like Billy Gibbons' lastest album a bunch.
	12:11pm Bob: sonofa!
	12:11pm MFlynn: Wow! What a cool Isley Bros tune!!!
	12:11pm clarke: DUSTY!! has gone looking for some...
	12:12pm SeanG: HELL YEAH
	12:12pm Michael Shelley: Paul - we walked...
	12:12pm davefromtoronto: zztop were so great until they discovered synths.
	12:12pm Listener Baby: It's a good thing Billy Gibbons could never get a good guitar sound.
	12:13pm clarke: same guys that ruined The Replacement ruined ZZ Topp before them
	12:13pm Moammar: I believe "Tush" is what we refer to as a single entendre. I might have gone with their version of "Thunderbird" by the Nightcaps. On that live Fandango record. Smoking!
	12:13pm Hoboken Jack: Hi MFlynn!
	12:13pm gf2002: Solid man! Thank you! ZZ Top in the 70's...boogie all night long.
	12:13pm Hughie Considine: I love Dusty's quote that sometimes you couldn't even hear the bass, and that was both good and bad.
	12:13pm MFlynn: Hey Jack!!!
	12:14pm clarke: damn that sounds just like petty
	12:14pm Hughie Considine: He injured his hip badly years ago.
	12:16pm Frank Zaatar: The Metro was on Broadway. It sounds like the Thalia. There was also a bookstore right next to it or under it, which had a basement level. I miss the UWS.
	12:17pm listener Elias: The picture sleeve for ZZ Top’s Tush 45 is a true masterpiece.
	12:17pm efd: Per this interview with Billy Gibbons from a couple of days ago that guitar tech’s beard is legit. He started growing it last year when the lockdown started. variety.com...
	12:17pm Sean: First the pies and now danishes. THAT'S IT! No more waffling, I'm making waffles.
	12:19pm clarke: the cover of the new Tape Op mag has a jingle-bell stick with the name Blaine written on it
	12:19pm dk50b: Are we sure Dusty didn't join a fake Zombies revival band?
	12:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...afternoon ! ...Let's see if there's one place on a Saturday for one week I can avoid anybody's controversies & just have fun for a second... ...Ah. Spade Cooley...nevermind. :p ...
	12:21pm mariano: Hey MS, everyone! I was stirred to wakefulness by "Tush." You know, If the Hells Angels were going to chain you to the back of a hog and take you on a scrape through the Texas desert, "Tush" would be the soundtrack. Love that song.
	12:21pm clarke: ha ha ha!! Mariano!!!! hey ho!!
	12:22pm Hoboken Jack: EFD! Mariano!
	12:23pm mariano: Hey, what's up clarke, Hoboken Jack!
	12:24pm MFlynn: This Honey Cones song gives me chills! Fabulous!!!
	12:25pm DG: RE: Tush----I'm still confused as to how ZZ Top knew Yiddish....or does this local slang (I assume) just happen to be similar?
	12:26pm davefromtoronto: monkees should've done this.
	12:26pm Cooh John: I thought this was the theme song for The Courtship of Eddie's Father?
	12:26pm P-90: Schmilsson!
	12:26pm Mister Dobalina: Epicly later'd but diggin' the tunes.
	12:27pm clarke: jimmy whipper still around?? Outer Limits was the name of the club.
	12:27pm Frank Zaatar: @DG: I guess they khey knew mispronounced Yiddish. I would love to read a sociolinguistic analysis of that song.
	12:28pm mariano: DG: There's a scene in the Simpsons episode where they go to NYC, and Bart sees three Hasidic men on the corner and says "Hey, it's ZZ Top! You guys rock!" and after a brief pause, one of them shrugs and says "Eh, maybe a little."
	12:28pm clarke: it SOUNDS like jim gordon and the right era for him being there in l.a.
	12:28pm phat in Lincoln: @Cooh John that confused me too. I have never listened to The Point, since I've never been much of a Nilsson fan.
	12:29pm clarke: The Point is a dang good rekkid.
	12:29pm davefromtoronto: the song was revised later for that show.
	12:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...because what's better than KuntryMusic ...& the people who play it !...
	12:30pm P-90: Yes, Jim Gordon is listed on “Girlfriend”.
	12:31pm clarke: that straight hi-hat is a tell-tale sign
	12:31pm davefromtoronto: cluster bottom - isn't that an STD?
	12:31pm miss kitty Catskill: I know them blues
	12:32pm phat in Lincoln: @davefromtoronto changed to "Best Friend" it seems. I had no idea it was a Nilsson tune. Like I said, I've never been much of a fan.
	12:32pm phat in Lincoln: It was a GREAT interview.
	12:32pm clarke: they are all great. grimes = genius
	12:33pm clarke: that's his snare - no doubt!!
	12:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: FMU RAWKS the Interviews.
	12:33pm davefromtoronto: phat yeah i didn't know either till i heard the original here years ago. i actually used to watch that show when i was a kid.
	12:34pm Jimmy Wipper: Outer Limits! Yeah, I remember that place!
	12:34pm DJ Johnny Cool: I'm playing this one on my soul show. OV!!!
	12:35pm clarke: i didn't remember - ha ha - but that show was PACKED. DO remember that!
	12:35pm clarke: i had to "phone a friend" for that tidbit
	12:35pm Steve from Dunwoody: Thank you Michael Shelley! I love this album from the Steve Gibbons Band!
	12:36pm Steve from Dunwoody: infra-dig and prohib
	12:37pm Jimmy Wipper: I saw the Buzzcocks there! I've seen the Posies a bunch of times, but I don't remember that show.
	12:37pm Steve from Dunwoody: Down In The Bunker, sometime please!
	12:38pm clarke: the Posies actually had to stop their set to get everyone to push back off the front, there.
	12:38pm Hubig Pie: Any relation between Billy Gibbons , Steve Gibbons and/or Michael and John Gibbons of Bardo Pond ?
	12:39pm Corey: Hello Michael and listeners! Been away from the computer this morning, but digging the show!
	12:39pm Jimmy Wipper: It was a great club. In the middle of VB in a weird strip mall.
	12:40pm clarke: a few nights later, opened for the Posies at Club Babyhead in providence - i think their best show EVER!
	12:41pm clarke: yeah - that club was sorta like the club i was in the same place as Baby - on long beach: Bogart's?
	12:42pm davefromtoronto: surf's down!
	12:43pm clarke: a rock venue in a strip mall
	12:43pm Jimmy Wipper: Now there are still lots of strip malls but now rock venues.
	12:44pm Michael Shelley: saw amazing Smithereens show at Bogarts
	12:44pm clarke: were you working for them, then?? was Baby there?
	12:45pm Tookie a.k.a Wuthry Guffy: howdy
	12:47pm Corey: Kinda sounds like Nashville Skyline Bob. Ha.
	12:47pm Michael Shelley: was 1st lp time - I went with Bob Say
	12:48pm clarke: they were badass during that period, to be sure
	12:48pm Hubig Pie: Cola Wine ! The scene of them performing this in "Harder They Come..." is pure joy
	12:49pm Frank Zaatar: @Corey: That might not be such a coincidence. Pops could have been Bob's father-in-law. You can wonder if he inspired Bob's Nashville style.
	12:51pm clarke: yep
	12:51pm Corey: @Frank Hadn't thought of that! Will start listening for it.
	12:52pm morphe': Thanks Mikey and all !!!!! Clarke - send us a name to find some footage/sounds??
	12:52pm clarke: dj's!
	12:53pm radioronan: Thanks Michael!
	12:53pm quinn: Love the Beachcomber. Discovered it last year. Heading back there in a couple of weeks.
	12:53pm clarke: i am not drumming on this: their original drummer Vince Valium on this - but certainly enjoyed playing it often, later.
	12:54pm listener Elias: DUDE. At the Wellfleet drive in before the show they would play a promo for the incredible casuals. It was really great. It must have been on 16mm.
	12:55pm clarke: unfortunately, the 'comber is a shell of what it once was - but, the building is still there, just not cool music much anymore, sadly.
	12:57pm clarke: ...there was a time....
	12:57pm Corey: Thanks Michael for the great show! Take care all.
	12:58pm clarke: i can say the 'coma was the greatest place to play for YEARS! kinda the american cavern club
	12:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY As Ever DJ MS
	12:59pm clarke: my love is real. goodnite.
	12:59pm mariano: Thank you, Michael Shelley!
	12:59pm Listener Baby: I was there

We are very much hoping that getting out of town can bring a little rest. We're both over the COVID. We're picking up Lulu's ashes on the way out of town so we can bury her with her fellows out on the farm in Michigan.
	11:07am Sean: Marty Stuart's band threw a Johnny Horton into the set last night.

	11:16am Handy Haversack: Me too! Two years ago was the first time we could get it there. I hooked it back up last week, but you just never know whether anything will still be working out there.
	11:17am clarke: well, if rural mississippi has fiber cable, let's hope michigan does! what is that nearest town?
	11:18am Danny in Poughkeepsie: Hey Michael. Digging the Rubinoos. Thanks
	11:18am P-90: If Clive was still there, he might have given these guys a deal at CBS.
	11:19am clarke: wow! this Rubinoos is, uh, heartening!!
	11:20am clarke: i still have a bad taste in my Rub's mouf, because that five-song EP of theirs is the last thing i put on my "killer" turntable - it is SO not-good.
	11:20am egould310: Ichiban hit record!
	11:20am clarke: bad production in every way
	11:21am Handy Haversack: Walkerville, MI, clarke. Oceana Co. Hoping to meet up with listener Corey when we're out there.
	11:22am clarke: going to stalk that... brb
	11:22am Hughie Considine: @Michael, one of the Grateful Dead's 25-minute takes on "Lovelight" might change your mind.
	11:22am Hughie Considine: @Michael, one of the Grateful Dead's 25-minute takes on "Lovelight" might change your mind.
	11:23am Hughie Considine: oops - sorry bout that
	11:23am Handy Haversack: Look for School Section lake, ~5.5 miles north of Walkerville. We're on the E-W stretch of road near there.
	11:25am clarke: wow, that's not too far from Leland, where i have played before - and home to Tobin Sprout (gBV)
	11:25am Frank Zaatar: Are Canadians so prudish that Ronnie had to censor the words "doodly-squat?"
	11:25am clarke: there's a nice art community around leland, MI
	11:28am Sean: What no bongo feet?
	11:28am clarke: i have also been to Petosky - across state, i think - where Hemingway grew up - nice area!!
	11:28am Handy Haversack: That's very close to where Corey works.
	11:29am Hoboken Jack: Helloooo Michael, Baby, Handy, Baggy, Greg, everybody!
	11:29am clarke: yes, nice area!!!
	11:30am Shri: @serious_cactus why are white ppl obsessed with fixing things?
	11:31am Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack!
	11:31am Sean: AGAIN with the pie! You guys are killin'me.
	11:31am Avrilinmay: PREACH! (about the olympics)
	11:32am clarke: sorry!!
	11:32am Handy Haversack: Yeah, Western MI is pretty sweet.
	11:33am Joe B: hey Michael and everyone
	11:33am clarke: howdy!
	11:33am phat in Lincoln: I really should just make it a point to own every NRBQ record.
	11:35am Rebus: As someone who doesn't own any NRBQ records, where should I start?
	11:35am Handy Haversack: OK, last loads heading to car. Thanks for the tunes, MS. We will try to pick it up in the car as long as we can. Be well, everyone. Have a great week.
	11:35am clarke: with NO MovieTime (and NO Frank): i was quite underwhelmed by Mona Lisa, last night (TCM). it had been way over-hyped to me.
	11:36am clarke: @Rebus: good start: Live At Yankee Stadium (it ain't live)
	11:36am HyperDose: Take care of yourselves, Handy. I'll be thinking about you guys!
	11:36am Hoboken Jack: Travel safe, Handy!!!
	11:36am Hoboken Jack: Hey Joe!!
	11:37am clarke: happy trails HH!!
	11:37am Hughie Considine: @Rebus, I would go for "All Hopped Up."
	11:37am Shri: @real_cactus why ppl so obsessed with being good?
	11:38am Handy Haversack: Thanks, pals!
	11:38am clarke: taking Hughie's point: almost any of their "classic line-up" albums will do - also, any live bootlegs of same era.
	11:38am Bob: That Joey tribute record has some great tracks and a couple stinkers too. Penn & Teller, ugh. Peter Case, Los Lobos, Buddy and Jim, Robbie all nail it. Joey and Kami provide the best track, of course. Thats my review.
	11:38am Sean: "Missed it by that much" - Don Adams review of The Kirkbys' single
	11:39am Baja Joe: Nothing worse than stale Boston Baked Beans candies... or is there?
	11:39am clarke: Thunderbirds used to play once a month at Chief's in baton rouge when i was at lsu - unreal.
	11:39am Moammar: Jimmie by far the superior Vaughan. Thank you for listening.
	11:42am P-90: Agreed, Jimmy is the #1 hit Vaughn
	11:43am clarke: true - but the 'secret weapon' of the Thunderbirds was ALWAYS their first bass player: keith ferguson
	11:43am Rebus: @clarke, @Hughie: Thanks!!
	11:44am clarke: enjoy Rebus!! it's a fun ride.
	11:45am Moammar: Used to run into the post T-Birds Keith Ferguson in Austin clubs staring glassy eyed at things in the middle distance.
	11:45am Bob: I agree on Jimmy but i've been going back to SRV lately. It's like the Dead. You have to get past the fans. Porky white dudes in blues hats playing guitars that are way too good for them on the weekend. It's taken me a long time to get past that part. His records are good though.
	11:45am Hughie Considine: I could not get my kids to appreciate the anarchic silliness of the Marx Brothers, and it hit me hard at first. Generationally, I think the current crop of kids just don't find adults behaving insanely as funny as we did.
	11:45am phat in Lincoln: I have trouble understanding a person not enjoying the Marx Brothers. I didn't know such a person existed. I'm not kidding. I just believed everyone enjoyed them, more or less. Huh.
	11:45am Maggie B.: Michael, that was the Thalia on 94th or 95th between Broadway and West End. My old nabe.
	11:45am clarke: well Keith got pretty junked-out for a while there
	11:45am Frank Zaatar: Michael. have you read Harpo Speaks? If not, you must.
	11:45am Jimmy Wipper: Harpo's autobiography, Harpo Speaks! is fantastic!
	11:46am juan: Michael, I think the theatre where you went to see Duck Soup might have been the Thalia which was on the side street where Symphony Space is now
	11:46am gf2002: Saw a great noir from 1947 this week: Desperate, with Steve Brodie and Raymond Burr. Worth seeking out, great cinematography.
	11:46am Hughie Considine: Good call, @Maggie. The Thalia indeed!
	11:46am clarke: WIPPAAAAAAH!!! WHERE THE HELL U BEEEN??
	11:47am Sean: Hey I went to see Marty Stuart with one of those Bakersfield Breakers. Can't wait for them to have a gig soon too.
	11:47am clarke: taking the summer off is NOT an option, sir!!
	11:48am Maggie B.: I think there was a tiny bookstore nearby and I remember buying Harpo's autobiography. Either there or closer to 90th St.
	11:49am Bob: I like Kurt well enough but Sirius radio listeners like me gotta ask, is there some conspiracy to make us love Kurt Baker and Jessie Malin? Do they have nude pictures of Lil' Steven? Is Mr Sirius their uncle? Seriously. Every five minutes. I'll stop now.
	11:49am clarke: steve brodie - awesome!! so underrated!!
	11:49am Jimmy Wipper: I'm ALWAYS here, but we've been listening some of the time after the show airs. Not taking the summer off...yet!
	11:49am gf2002: Stevie Ray unfortunately falls victim to something that happens a lot. The blame for some of his fans and his copycat artists fell on him and gets in the way of the music. The dude could play his a** off, and almost by himself revived the blues as a viable commercial genre.
	11:50am Vertual: Similar experience for me Michael. A much older cousin took me to see Marx Brothers movies on a big screen in the 70s at about that age. Life changing.
	11:50am clarke: how goes on the Va-shore?? hot i hear.
	11:51am Jimmy Wipper: Hot and covidy!
	11:51am clarke: that's EVERYwhere, JW
	11:51am gf2002: @clarke - Steve Brodie is terrific in that lead role. He looks and acts like the classic noir character who gets drawn into things totally out of his control. Great film! Burr is fantastic as the gangster lead too.
	11:52am Dan from Delco: One of my dear friends is an orphan from El Salvador. She was adopted in 1991. Her husband is a refugee from Liberia. Beautiful family.
	11:52am Don Gorden: Was the movie theater, north riverside Luxury 6 Theater ??, used to pass it almost every day back in the 90s working in NYC
	11:52am clarke: stevie ray was actually roadie'ing for the Thunderbirds on a few of those later shows i saw in baton rouge.
	11:53am Jimmy Wipper: True, but a mixture of right wing idiots in Virginia Beach and a flood of tourists has made this area especially covidy. Going maskless lasted about 2 weeks. Ughhh.
	11:53am clarke: yes, too bad it is getting ruined for the smart folk.
	11:54am clarke: oh, Jim: i remembered that one of those shows we did at Va-beach was with The Posies
	11:55am P-90: …goddamn white radio stations…
	11:56am Hughie Considine: Went to high school with Sylvia's son, Joey Robinson, who was a good guy. Favorite band: The Moments.
	11:56am Jimmy Wipper: Really? I saw The Posies several times here, but my memory is not what it used to be. At Peabody's maybe?
	11:56am clarke: it was at nemo's i think??
	11:57am Jimmy Wipper: Hmmm, never heard of it.
	11:57am clarke: between us we might have ONE memory
	11:58am clarke: will get to the bottom of this, eventually. just need to ask chandler, ha ha.
	11:58am Michael Shelley: I think it was at Uzzel's
	11:58am clarke: ha ha ha ha. probably!!
	11:58am Jimmy Wipper: I think that you're right. Or less than one. You're righ Michaelt, it could have been at Uzzle's Downunder!
	11:59am Listener Baby: Baby. Was thinking just yesterday that you were WAY overdue for some Apples. And here you go!!
	11:59am clarke: speaking of down under...where's eddy??
	12:00pm clarke: this is the news dept.
	12:00pm Michael Shelley: If I'm remembering correctly, The Full House Band opened.
	12:01pm clarke: Stinkfinger!!!!
	12:01pm gf2002: We got ZZ Hill this morning, any ZZ Top cued up? RIP Dusty Hill.
	12:02pm Jimmy Wipper: They were the ones with the Les Paul?
	12:02pm clarke: dusty hit the road, but lives on in terlingua
	12:03pm clarke: with p-90's.
	12:03pm dk50b: Michael, did you let Sylvia know your station played race records?
	12:03pm clarke: double-dippin' Apples!! yep!!
	12:05pm gf2002: Ernie sounds more like Gerry Marsden!
	12:08pm Bob: Trying to imagine what ZZ Top record Michael would play. If he played one. Which he probably wouldn't.
	12:08pm Joe B: life-altering LP here for me as an 11/12 yr old
	12:09pm clarke: Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers!!
	12:10pm Paul: Michael, Since you remember parking on a steep road, perhaps you saw Duck Soup at the Metro theater, on Broadway at 99th St. 99th Street is quite steep between Riverside Drive and West End Avenue.
	12:10pm clarke: and, although dusty was not involved, i like Billy Gibbons' lastest album a bunch.
	12:11pm Bob: sonofa!
	12:11pm MFlynn: Wow! What a cool Isley Bros tune!!!
	12:11pm clarke: DUSTY!! has gone looking for some...
	12:12pm SeanG: HELL YEAH
	12:12pm Michael Shelley: Paul - we walked...
	12:12pm davefromtoronto: zztop were so great until they discovered synths.
	12:12pm Listener Baby: It's a good thing Billy Gibbons could never get a good guitar sound.
	12:13pm clarke: same guys that ruined The Replacement ruined ZZ Topp before them
	12:13pm Moammar: I believe "Tush" is what we refer to as a single entendre. I might have gone with their version of "Thunderbird" by the Nightcaps. On that live Fandango record. Smoking!
	12:13pm Hoboken Jack: Hi MFlynn!
	12:13pm gf2002: Solid man! Thank you! ZZ Top in the 70's...boogie all night long.
	12:13pm Hughie Considine: I love Dusty's quote that sometimes you couldn't even hear the bass, and that was both good and bad.
	12:13pm MFlynn: Hey Jack!!!
	12:14pm clarke: damn that sounds just like petty
	12:14pm Hughie Considine: He injured his hip badly years ago.
	12:16pm Frank Zaatar: The Metro was on Broadway. It sounds like the Thalia. There was also a bookstore right next to it or under it, which had a basement level. I miss the UWS.
	12:17pm listener Elias: The picture sleeve for ZZ Top’s Tush 45 is a true masterpiece.
	12:17pm efd: Per this interview with Billy Gibbons from a couple of days ago that guitar tech’s beard is legit. He started growing it last year when the lockdown started. variety.com...
	12:17pm Sean: First the pies and now danishes. THAT'S IT! No more waffling, I'm making waffles.
	12:19pm clarke: the cover of the new Tape Op mag has a jingle-bell stick with the name Blaine written on it
	12:19pm dk50b: Are we sure Dusty didn't join a fake Zombies revival band?
	12:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...afternoon ! ...Let's see if there's one place on a Saturday for one week I can avoid anybody's controversies & just have fun for a second... ...Ah. Spade Cooley...nevermind. :p ...
	12:21pm mariano: Hey MS, everyone! I was stirred to wakefulness by "Tush." You know, If the Hells Angels were going to chain you to the back of a hog and take you on a scrape through the Texas desert, "Tush" would be the soundtrack. Love that song.
	12:21pm clarke: ha ha ha!! Mariano!!!! hey ho!!
	12:22pm Hoboken Jack: EFD! Mariano!
	12:23pm mariano: Hey, what's up clarke, Hoboken Jack!
	12:24pm MFlynn: This Honey Cones song gives me chills! Fabulous!!!
	12:25pm DG: RE: Tush----I'm still confused as to how ZZ Top knew Yiddish....or does this local slang (I assume) just happen to be similar?
	12:26pm davefromtoronto: monkees should've done this.
	12:26pm Cooh John: I thought this was the theme song for The Courtship of Eddie's Father?
	12:26pm P-90: Schmilsson!
	12:26pm Mister Dobalina: Epicly later'd but diggin' the tunes.
	12:27pm clarke: jimmy whipper still around?? Outer Limits was the name of the club.
	12:27pm Frank Zaatar: @DG: I guess they khey knew mispronounced Yiddish. I would love to read a sociolinguistic analysis of that song.
	12:28pm mariano: DG: There's a scene in the Simpsons episode where they go to NYC, and Bart sees three Hasidic men on the corner and says "Hey, it's ZZ Top! You guys rock!" and after a brief pause, one of them shrugs and says "Eh, maybe a little."
	12:28pm clarke: it SOUNDS like jim gordon and the right era for him being there in l.a.
	12:28pm phat in Lincoln: @Cooh John that confused me too. I have never listened to The Point, since I've never been much of a Nilsson fan.
	12:29pm clarke: The Point is a dang good rekkid.
	12:29pm davefromtoronto: the song was revised later for that show.
	12:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...because what's better than KuntryMusic ...& the people who play it !...
	12:30pm P-90: Yes, Jim Gordon is listed on “Girlfriend”.
	12:31pm clarke: that straight hi-hat is a tell-tale sign
	12:31pm davefromtoronto: cluster bottom - isn't that an STD?
	12:31pm miss kitty Catskill: I know them blues
	12:32pm phat in Lincoln: @davefromtoronto changed to "Best Friend" it seems. I had no idea it was a Nilsson tune. Like I said, I've never been much of a fan.
	12:32pm phat in Lincoln: It was a GREAT interview.
	12:32pm clarke: they are all great. grimes = genius
	12:33pm clarke: that's his snare - no doubt!!
	12:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: FMU RAWKS the Interviews.
	12:33pm davefromtoronto: phat yeah i didn't know either till i heard the original here years ago. i actually used to watch that show when i was a kid.
	12:34pm Jimmy Wipper: Outer Limits! Yeah, I remember that place!
	12:34pm DJ Johnny Cool: I'm playing this one on my soul show. OV!!!
	12:35pm clarke: i didn't remember - ha ha - but that show was PACKED. DO remember that!
	12:35pm clarke: i had to "phone a friend" for that tidbit
	12:35pm Steve from Dunwoody: Thank you Michael Shelley! I love this album from the Steve Gibbons Band!
	12:36pm Steve from Dunwoody: infra-dig and prohib
	12:37pm Jimmy Wipper: I saw the Buzzcocks there! I've seen the Posies a bunch of times, but I don't remember that show.
	12:37pm Steve from Dunwoody: Down In The Bunker, sometime please!
	12:38pm clarke: the Posies actually had to stop their set to get everyone to push back off the front, there.
	12:38pm Hubig Pie: Any relation between Billy Gibbons , Steve Gibbons and/or Michael and John Gibbons of Bardo Pond ?
	12:39pm Corey: Hello Michael and listeners! Been away from the computer this morning, but digging the show!
	12:39pm Jimmy Wipper: It was a great club. In the middle of VB in a weird strip mall.
	12:40pm clarke: a few nights later, opened for the Posies at Club Babyhead in providence - i think their best show EVER!
	12:41pm clarke: yeah - that club was sorta like the club i was in the same place as Baby - on long beach: Bogart's?
	12:42pm davefromtoronto: surf's down!
	12:43pm clarke: a rock venue in a strip mall
	12:43pm Jimmy Wipper: Now there are still lots of strip malls but now rock venues.
	12:44pm Michael Shelley: saw amazing Smithereens show at Bogarts
	12:44pm clarke: were you working for them, then?? was Baby there?
	12:45pm Tookie a.k.a Wuthry Guffy: howdy
	12:47pm Corey: Kinda sounds like Nashville Skyline Bob. Ha.
	12:47pm Michael Shelley: was 1st lp time - I went with Bob Say
	12:48pm clarke: they were badass during that period, to be sure
	12:48pm Hubig Pie: Cola Wine ! The scene of them performing this in "Harder They Come..." is pure joy
	12:49pm Frank Zaatar: @Corey: That might not be such a coincidence. Pops could have been Bob's father-in-law. You can wonder if he inspired Bob's Nashville style.
	12:51pm clarke: yep
	12:51pm Corey: @Frank Hadn't thought of that! Will start listening for it.
	12:52pm morphe': Thanks Mikey and all !!!!! Clarke - send us a name to find some footage/sounds??
	12:52pm clarke: dj's!
	12:53pm radioronan: Thanks Michael!
	12:53pm quinn: Love the Beachcomber. Discovered it last year. Heading back there in a couple of weeks.
	12:53pm clarke: i am not drumming on this: their original drummer Vince Valium on this - but certainly enjoyed playing it often, later.
	12:54pm listener Elias: DUDE. At the Wellfleet drive in before the show they would play a promo for the incredible casuals. It was really great. It must have been on 16mm.
	12:55pm clarke: unfortunately, the 'comber is a shell of what it once was - but, the building is still there, just not cool music much anymore, sadly.
	12:57pm clarke: ...there was a time....
	12:57pm Corey: Thanks Michael for the great show! Take care all.
	12:58pm clarke: i can say the 'coma was the greatest place to play for YEARS! kinda the american cavern club
	12:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY As Ever DJ MS
	12:59pm clarke: my love is real. goodnite.
	12:59pm mariano: Thank you, Michael Shelley!
	12:59pm Listener Baby: I was there
