Listener comments!
	♥ 2:00pm Woo: Hi to Dennis
	♥ 2:02pm Dennis Diken: "WELCOME 'YON DENIZENS' TO AN ENCORE OF 'DENNY'S DEN' FROM JULY 21, 2021! LET'S HANG OUT AND GAB! GOOD TIMES FOR ALL! WELL ALRIGHT!"
	♥ 2:03pm Andrew in Toronto: Good afternoon Dennis and all other listeners!
	♥ 2:03pm Andrew in Toronto: Hey there Woo!
	♥ 2:07pm Dennis Diken: hey Woo and Andrew In Toronto!
	♥ 2:09pm myron feld: Hello DD, Woo and AIT!
	♥ 2:09pm Dennis Diken: my man myron! hey now!
	♥ 2:11pm Woo: Hey Andrew, myron. When I was a kid watching this Moon thing on TV I remember once they got to a certain point it was a "simulation" of the Apollo and not very exciting. Until of course they landed and walked on the Moon.
	♥ 2:12pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there myron!
	2:13pm Gerry from Miami: Howdy, DENNY! Got lost on the Internet searching for something insignificant and missed the first couple of tunes. But I joined in with the Bird and the Bee. Nice!
	2:15pm Gerry from Miami: I see DENNY is away this week. We shall carry on like good soldiers anyway!
	♥ 2:16pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - hey bud, the show's an encore but I'm hangin' out here on the message board with 'Yon Denizens'!
	♥ 2:16pm LesleyK: Hi Dennis and everyone!
	♥ 2:18pm Dennis Diken: hey LesleyK - nice fill-in for Flot!!
	2:18pm Gerry from Miami: Thanks for the heads-up, DENNY. I should be used to this by now.
	♥ 2:18pm Woo: Hey Gerry!
	♥ 2:19pm LesleyK: Thanks Dennis! Appreciate it!
	♥ 2:20pm Woo: Hey Lesley!
	2:21pm Gino1: Hey all! Looking forward to another great listen!
	♥ 2:22pm Dennis Diken: @Gino1 - nice to see you here!
	2:25pm Gerry from Miami: Hey, woo! Been having pretty bad luck with requests on the BUNNY stream. He sees the band name I asked for and he often plays Coca-Cola commercials or some such nonsense by these musicians from back in the day. Did it for the Monkees and the Cowsills. Even played a "drink milk" ad! Sounds of artificial intelligence indeed!
	2:29pm larryartguy: Skeeter is always a wise choice...I recall buying her box CD set...what a joy...!!
	2:29pm Nezrok: Hey All!
	♥ 2:31pm Dennis Diken: @nezrok - greetings! @larryartguy - you too!
	♥ 2:31pm Woo: Gerry, with the Bunny it helps to ask for a song you know has been played before. Sometimes forget the Bunny doesn't have every song ever like Spotify (which I've never used)
	2:32pm larryartguy: LOVING all these great female voices you are treating us to this afternoon...GREAT show...!!
	♥ 2:32pm Stu Rutherford: Hello Dennis & everyone!
	2:33pm Nezrok: Carpenters song brings me back to Jersey Shore summer vacation.
	♥ 2:33pm Dennis Diken: @larryartguy - so glad you're diggin'! @Stu Rutherford - thanks for tuning in!
	2:33pm Gerry from Miami: @larryartguy. I'm a big Skeeter Davis fan as well. But try and get BUNNY to play "I Can't Stay Mad at You." After 5 requests or so, I threw in the towel.
	♥ 2:37pm PaulRobeson1922: Good song- Oh Qu'il Est Vilain
	♥ 2:38pm Dennis Diken: @PaulRobeson1922 - at your service!
	2:38pm larryartguy: Who knew BB could sing? Pretty good pop song by her...!!
	2:40pm Gerry from Miami: @woo. But BUNNY has some of the most obscure records I have ever seen! Why aren't more well-known ones in his vast collection? I get the impression his algorithm is programmed to mess with his listeners. Oh well, I can always go to some alternative source to satisfy my musical desires.
	2:41pm Dudski: I like the story of how Love came up with the title "Forever Changes". Arthur Lee broke up with one of his girlfriends and she said, "But you told me you'd love me forever" and he replied "Forever Changes".
	♥ 2:41pm Woo: Gerry, I do believe every song ever is available on YouTube
	♥ 2:43pm Dennis Diken: @Dudski - that is wild! thanks!
	2:52pm Gerry from Miami: @woo. That's quite a claim! Not true, of course. But YouTube does have quite a lot of stuff at our fingertips. But because of copyright issues, many things posted there get taken down. Like almost the entire Keith Jarrett and Peter Gabriel (solo) catalogs. And I am sympathetic to artists' need to monetize their work. The streamers should pay these musicians much higher royalties per play. Now I will step down from my soapbox!
	2:52pm Myron Feld: Dennis, even though this show is a repeat, the music matches today’s sultry weather perfectly!
	♥ 2:53pm Eric R: hi all! I'll test that claim, Woo! (I know it's an exaggeration)
	♥ 2:54pm PaulRobeson1922: @Gerry from Miami: maybe! BUNNY likes to play other tunes by The Animals when I request “A Girl Named Sandoz”
	♥ 2:55pm Dennis Diken: @Myron Feld - thanks, brother man! @Eric R - hello!
	2:55pm larryartguy: Repeat? I did not know...but I did not know that. But it is like a sweet breeze on this HOT summer day...!! TY!!
	♥ 2:55pm LesleyK: Enjoying this encore while I slave away at work here!
	♥ 2:56pm Eric R: just went to youtube to see if the flip side of my group's 1978 single is there. It is. And not only that, but several tunes (not all, though) of an unreleased album we did. Pretty astounding and funny.
	♥ 2:57pm Dennis Diken: @larryartguy @LesleyK - thanks a bunch!
	♥ 2:58pm Woo: @Eric, are you OK with your songs on there?
	♥ 2:59pm Gaylord Fields: Sounded good to me, Dennis! Or should I say, "Très bien, Denis!"
	♥ 3:00pm Eric R: Woo, of course. Music is for sharing
	♥ 3:01pm Woo: Right on @Eric. You can always leave a comment there!
	♥ 3:01pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - merci!
	3:01pm Gerry from Miami: DENNY, I saw that Ed Ames tomahawk stunt the night it was broadcast on the "Johnny Carson Tonight Show." Give Johnny credit for pure bravery! His voice could have ended up at a much higher pitch if Mr. Ames's aim had been just a tad less accurate!
	♥ 3:05pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - yeah, well worth watching!!
	3:07pm Gerry from Miami: 87 cents for that record with the Heartbeats on it? Such a deal! Low royalties on music didn't just start in the streaming age!
	♥ 3:08pm Eric R: @Gerry, I bet there were NO royalties then
	♥ 3:14pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - that LP was a cutout - however, Morris Levy of Roulette didn't pay big to his artists nonetheless!
	♥ 3:15pm Woo: With Morris Levy, you paid HIM
	♥ 3:16pm Eric R: that Tommy James autobio is the best for Levy info
	♥ 3:16pm Woo: The Tommy James autobio is a great read.
	3:17pm Gerry from Miami: Eric R. I wouldn't doubt it. I worked in the retail sector of the music biz for several years in LA. Pretty insane. A friend worked at a large wholesaler at that time. Two other friends, husband and wife, had a working band and worked many high-profile sessions. Oh, the tales they used to tell me!!
	♥ 3:17pm Dennis Diken: @Woo @Eric R - and then there's this one: Godfather of the Music Business: Morris Levy Biography by Richard Carlin
	♥ 3:19pm Eric R: ooh, thanks Dennis, gotta find that one!
	3:20pm larryartguy: The TOMMY JAMES book...title and author? TY
	♥ 3:22pm Woo: Me, the Mob, and the Music: One Helluva Ride with Tommy James & The Shondells. And the author is...Tommy James!
	3:23pm larryartguy: TY WOO...quite the title, TY...!!
	3:23pm Gerry from Miami: Yes, DENNY. I am aware of the structure around unsold or deleted records back in the day. Levy was just an extreme example of corporate greed and, if I recall, returned records("schlock") often counted AGAINST the artists' earnings.
	♥ 3:26pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - not sure I'd even call it corporate greed - more like tough guy greed! yet many people felt he was a mensch?! read all about it in both books!
	♥ 3:29pm Woo: then there's the thing with Levy going after Lennon for borrowing from Chuck Berry on Come Together
	3:38pm larryartguy: Dennis-I see a free show coming up on Long Island for the Smithereens (with Marshall Crenshaw)--go ahead PLUG it here for everyone...!!
	3:41pm Gerry from Miami: Two distinctive and instantly-recognizable voices from the 60s in those last two records---- Steve Marriott with the Small Faces and Keith Relf with the Yardbirds. So good.
	3:44pm Gerry from Miami: You can add Mike Smith of the DC5 to that previous duo of top 60s singers!
	♥ 3:44pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - right - and then there was Del!
	3:45pm Dudski: Exceptionally good selection today.
	3:48pm Gerry from Miami: So sad that Del Shannon passed away just as he was about to join the Traveling Wilburys to replace Roy Orbison. Would love to have heard what his unique voice would have added to that supergroup.
	♥ 3:49pm Andrew in Toronto: Thanks for an awesome show!
	3:51pm Gerry from Miami: So much great stuff on this encore show today! Thanks. DENNY! Best wishes as your Smithereens tour continues.
	♥ 3:52pm Dennis Diken: @Dudski - many thanks! @Andrew In Toronto - you too! @Gerry from Miami - obliged!
	♥ 3:54pm Dennis Diken: “THANK YOU SO MUCH ‘YON DENIZENS’ FOR DIGGIN’ ON THE NOISE AND HANGIN’ OUT TODAY! SEE YOU NEXT WEEK – LOVE YOU ALL MADLY!!”
