WFMU: Honky Tonk Radio Girl with Becky: Playlist from August 18, 2021

Listener comments!
	🎸 ♥ 8:02pm ultradamno: Becky! Tonkies! Poor Depp, first interrupted by a Rutle and now "boycotted" by "Hollywood"
	♥ 8:02pm loveless: Tonkin' while craftin'. Hello all.
	🎸 ♥ 8:02pm Handy Haversack: Becky! Tonka Trucks!
	♥ 8:03pm Pauly from Clifton: Hiya, Becky, gang!
	8:04pm BH: Thanks to the "not paying out much" evil entity Spotify for alerting me that "Hey, we have the 'Monsters' Holiday' Buck Owens album up now." No idea why it was just made available last week. Apparently not all 70s albums that received 2 stars on AllMusic were on Spotify. So that was 25 minutes well spent in the middle of the night while in bed.
	♥ 8:05pm Ivan from Woodbridge: Hello Becky, loveless and all
	♥ 8:07pm Becky: Howdy friends!!
	♥ 8:09pm loveless: @Ivan from Woodbridge Howdee!
	♥ 8:10pm Ivan from Woodbridge: Tonight’s show is brought to you by the letter “c”
	8:10pm JakeGould: Hey Becky! I say this with no ill will, but you sound like the Honky Drunk Radio Girl. If so… Cheers! 🤠
	♥ 8:11pm loveless: Hummmm, both Matt & Becky will be away next week . . .
	8:11pm JT: evenin’
	♥ 8:11pm Ivan from Woodbridge: Hummm,
	♥ 8:14pm Becky: Thanks Jake! So good to know.
	🎸 ♥ 8:15pm Handy Haversack: I am definitely perfecting my drunk listening skills.
	8:19pm JakeGould: Handy! Saw a kayaker near one of the NYC Ferry docks in deep Brooklyn and thought of you. Also, thought that guy was nuts being out so deep in Brooklyn waters.
	🎸 ♥ 8:24pm PigeonsAndRust: I'll shecond that Handy
	8:26pm BH: Flashback to the mid-2000s when I decided "Okay, i'll download 'Seven Spanish Angels'" and found.. "hey this is pretty good"
	🎸 ♥ 8:26pm luka: i… don’t think i’ve heard ray charles do country? this smokes.
	♥ 8:27pm Ivan from Woodbridge: @luka me neither. Another educational moment on Fmu, should that issue ever resurface.
	♥ 8:27pm Becky: Yeah!! Ray Charles had country in the heart of everything he did. Also this song makes me cry.
	🎸 ♥ 8:30pm PigeonsAndRust: I used to hear this all of the time back when there were still pop standards station on AM. I miss them
	🎸 ♥ 8:31pm Handy Haversack: WORD.
	♥ 8:31pm Becky: You must put aside the white people choir on these records. A crime.
	♥ 8:32pm Pauly from Clifton: PigeonsAndRust, that's exactly how I first heard of Ray Charles. That and the C&W music collections that were hawked on WOR and WPIX, back in the day.
	8:33pm BH: there were a few early 60s country songs with an eerily similar choir or echoing backup vocals, weren't there?
	🎸 ♥ 8:34pm Handy Haversack: Seriously, Becky. But Ray Charles ... what a gift.
	♥ 8:35pm Becky: Like who decided we needed the white people choir?? Why? Was this considered a value-add?
	🎸 ♥ 8:36pm ultradamno: I think they came with the room
	🎸 ♥ 8:36pm Handy Haversack: My experience so far is that it's hard to get the money guys to get the white people out of the damn way.
	🎸 ♥ 8:37pm Ken From Hyde Park: Possibly a make-work WPA project.
	♥ 8:37pm McGroovey: I could listen to Ray Charles all night now. But yeah, the white-girl choir is cheesey. The black-girl choir is better.
	🎸 ♥ 8:38pm Gaylord Fields: Haha, Becky! No love for the Pale-ettes from you.
	8:38pm JakeGould: @Becky: The same people who thought Louie Anderson was needed as the white guy in “Coming to America.” Still this is such a funny scene in the film “Hey, I started out mopping the floor just like you guys. But now... now I'm washing lettuce. Soon I'll be on fries; then the grill. In a year or two, I'll make assistant manager, and that's when the big bucks start rolling in.”
	8:40pm BH: just remembered the "Johnny Cash at Sun" album where they had versions of some of his songs without the overdubbed backup vocals. But yeah, there's some sorta Nashville Sound stuff on various songs by various artists that is... something.
	♥ 8:42pm loveless: Awwwww, my cold bitter heart is melting . . .
	🎸 ♥ 8:42pm ultradamno: I'd like to think no one would dispute it, but watching Link Wray get dicked around by the rockhall makes one wonder how these thing work.
	8:43pm wenzo: love this numba!!
	🎸 ♥ 8:43pm Handy Haversack: Nice. Felicitaciones, Maya and Matt.
	🎸 ♥ 8:43pm PigeonsAndRust: I had to check : Ray was backed up on ' I Can't Stop Lovin' You' by the Randy Van Horne Singers, who sang the themes for Hanna-Barbera cartoons like The Flintstones and The Jetsons!
	8:44pm BH: deep in the vaults of a record studio is Ray Charles and the Van Horne Singers singing the theme to the Flintstones
	8:49pm P-90: That Flintstones theme by Hoyt Curtin is a work of genius. Jazz musicians love to jam that tune,
	🎸 ♥ 8:50pm Handy Haversack: As we say on Saturday mornings: bongo feet!
	🎸 ♥ 8:51pm Gaylord Fields: The Randy Van Horne singers are the ones who go "Pow!" and "Zu-zu-zu" on Esquivel's records. Even that may have worked better on Ray's songs.
	🎸 ♥ 8:51pm PigeonsAndRust: Gosh, they are soo pale....but yet it's captivating to see them sing The Flintstones theme about 50 years after they originally did. Honky Tonk's polar opposite! youtu.be...
	🎸 ♥ 8:53pm Ken From Hyde Park: A good trivia question would be who sings the Hinky Dinky Time theme song.
	🎸 ♥ 8:56pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Becky! ALSO: YEEEEEAH, Becky!
	♥ 8:58pm radioronan: Thank you Becky!
	🎸 ♥ 8:58pm PigeonsAndRust: Hinky Dinky, Drinky Winky, Honky Dronky. Thanks Becky!!!!
	♥ 8:59pm McGroovey: Loved the show
	♥ 9:00pm Pauly from Clifton: Thanks, Becky!
	9:00pm P-90: Lovely show as always! Thanks!
	9:00pm wenzo: great show! ima thankin’ ya!
