@doctorjazz: I remember it as roughly a couple of weeks before Irene and Mayuko's birthday. I don't know if I should hope Irene is on the (virtual) air on her birthday. Seems fitting to me, but I only know her radio side

Good afternoon BB and fellow listeners! When I was but a wee lad, I thought Dave Davies was shouting "Oh yeah!" on the fade of Big Black Smoke. Many years later, I realized he was saying "Oyez! Oyez!" in the manner of a town crier of olde. Fascinating factoid? Maybe not, but that's all I got.

Interestingly (and relating to the post I did at 12:19 on my remaining brain cells), I went to bandcamp to check out Dialectic Soul, and it tells me I own it...

@dan- Did you come up with that description of Steeleye Span? It's too good to not reuse.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:56pm

I like that description as well, but were Fairport not that hip...?
  1:00pm
Gerry from Miami:

That Jocque and LeScott rendition of Ornette Coleman is the coolest thing I've heard since the late Charlie Haden's daughter, Petra, took on the entire "The Who Sell Out" album by the Who, rendered in vocal overdubs of all parts, both singing and instrumental. Amazing!

dB's, a fave (along with their subsequent solo albums), great tune!

Is this the same as the Joan Jett song?

Gerry from Miami:

This Jr. Walker tune reminded me of the summer of '69, when I spent two months at Fort Ord, California, training to go to war in Vietnam. Somehow, over the constant, thick fog at night, we were able to pick up songs like "Mendocino," by the Sir Douglas Quintet and Jr. Walker's "What Does It Take(to Win Your Love For Me?") on our puny AM radios. Oh yeah, also can't forget to mention "Sugar Sugar," by the Archies.

Bob, Frank Zappa considered all his songs part of a LARGE composition. He called it CONCEPTUAL CONTINUITY

@doctorjazz: Enjoy the birthday celebration! But stay off the Glen Passaic, it's dubious enough to start with, but if you get it from any place but the Stork club, with its renowned quality standards, you're taking a chance. Second hand dioxin is bad news

I do believe that "Follow You Down" tune you played is done by the New MENDICANTS, not Medicats. Just a minor typo.
