Dennis Diken's avatar View Dennis Diken's profile Favoriting

Step into Denny’s Den to give yourself a little lift as you make your way through the busy day. Or take a break and make the world go away for a while. Dig on platters a-plenty, from The Chantels to Del Shannon, The Small Faces to Jimmy Reed. And so much more. Maybe some Basie and Kenton? Relax. You’ve earned it!

LesleyK:

Hey Woo!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:22pm
Dennis Diken:

hi LesleyK! @Woo - I had the pleasure of compiling and writing the notes for the Meek Razor & Tie CD. we put a band together and performed a few Meek-themed shows at the Fez in '95 & '96. great fun!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:26pm
Woo:

That's great Dennis! I just got out my copy and I will read your notes again as well as give the disc a spin. After this show.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:27pm
Dennis Diken:

@Woo - yeah, a real labor of love! thanks!

Probably Christine Keeler, not Ruby Keeler.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:33pm
Dennis Diken:

@Jesse - glad you're here! did I say 'Ruby Keeler'? ha ha!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:36pm

DD, after you played this last year, I ran out (online-style) and bought an Erma Franklin compilation. Thanks!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:46pm
Dennis Diken:

@myron feld - hey bub! glad to be of service!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:47pm
Kim Reynolds:

Spoooooooooky!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:48pm
myron feld:

And coincidentally, yesterday a friend told me about the Ruby Keeler & Jimmy Cagney number "Shanghai Lil" from "Footlight Parade" -- well worth a youtube look. It's pre-code, so it's set in an opium den and bar, and features some doped-up ingenues. That's entertainment!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:49pm
Dennis Diken:

@myron feld - will check that out, to be sure!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:53pm
LesleyK:

I thought the stray cats in my neighborhood were trying to break in here
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:54pm

HEY ALL, PLEASE NOTE, I JUST SAID DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME BEGINS THIS WEEKEND - IT DOES NOT! THIS SHOW IS FROM LAST YEAR!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:55pm

SORRY ABOUT THAT - HAH! ANOTHER 'TRICK'!

@myron feld - well alright! thanks!!
  3:16pm
Dudski:

That's so close to the Spoonful original.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:18pm
Dennis Diken:

@Dudski - The Spoonful rocked it up a bunch - a totally unhinged cut!! Zal Yanovsky on vocals
  3:19pm
Dudski:

They were great. And Sebastian was very knowledgeable about folk music and jug bands and all that.
  3:20pm
Dudski:

Of course when you say Yanovsky the "unhinged" part is just implied. What a character and a great guitarist. Always loved his work on "Coconut Grove".
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:22pm
Dennis Diken:

@Dudski - yes indeed, I learned so much from listening to The Spoonful when I was a kid - without realizing it! Zal, my favorite guitarist!! agreed re "Coconut Grove"!
  3:24pm
Dudski:

"Hums of the Lovin' Spoonful" is one of those essential albums.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:27pm
Dennis Diken:

@Dudski - no argument here!! I can say the same thing for Daydream (I wrote liner notes for CD reishes of Hums and Daydream) as well as Do You Believe In Magic!
  3:31pm
Dudski:

I think it is easy to forget how important the Spoonful were. After the Beatles hit them and the Byrds were kind of the first great American bands.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:32pm
Eric R:

I need to check my copy of Hums!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:33pm
Dennis Diken:

@Dudski - don't get me started! @Eric R - that was a total dream gig - I interviewed all four guys, including Zally!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:33pm
Eric R:

in NYC the "Gods" (according to me and my friends) were the Lovin' Spoonful and the Young Rascals.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:34pm
Dennis Diken:

@Eric R - did you get to see them live?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:35pm
Eric R:

no, never did. I saw Sebastian do a surprise set at the Troubadour open mic, much later (1979?)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:39pm
Dennis Diken:

@Eric R - man, I woulda loved to have seen the original band live - tho I hear their performances could be erratic. but still...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:40pm
Eric R:

would have loved to have seen them at the Night Owl
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:42pm
Dennis Diken:

@EricR - me too!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:43pm
Kim Reynolds:

That's a great Vincent Price album.
Avatar 3:44pm
Patti K:

Always loved this song, dig hearing Vincent Price too
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:45pm
Dennis Diken:

@Kim Reynolds - indeed it is! I bought it at a street sale on St. Marks Place years ago! @Patti K - for sure!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:50pm
Woo:

Thanks Dennis! I will not set my clock back this weekend.
