	2:09pm Gerry from Miami: Julie London had a slew of great album covers! Playboy Magazine-worthy, only with clothes on! I assume her hubby, Bobby Troup, who wrote "Route 66," gave her a few musical tips.
	2:09pm MOM WHIG: Gerry they were both on TV series Emergency
	2:11pm Woo: Hey Eric
	2:11pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - you will not get an argument from me re Julie's LP sleeves! Bobby Troup also penned one of my top favorite songs: "Their Hearts Were Full Of Spring"
	2:13pm Woo: Is this Atlantic Tunnel Ed?
	2:13pm Gerry from Miami: Yes, MOM WHIG, so they were! Was Julie considered a good actress or just another pretty face?
	2:14pm Eric R: beautiful arrangement on this Marianne song
	2:14pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Eric.
	2:15pm MOM WHIG: Eric agreed - good one
	2:16pm Gerry from Miami: That Edward Rogers has a retro "throwback" sound. Thought I was listening to a 60s record.
	2:16pm Dennis Diken: @Woo - indeed it is Ed Rogers of Atlantic Tunnel!
	2:16pm LesleyK: Hi Mom Whig, Woo, Eric , Stu and all!
	2:16pm Woo: I liked that very much @Dennis.
	2:17pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi LesleyK!
	2:17pm LesleyK: Hi Andrew!
	2:18pm Dennis Diken: @Woo - me too!
	2:18pm LesleyK: @Stu, I will miss your show tonight...going to see the Avengers this evening. Will catch the archives tomorrow
	2:20pm LesleyK: The band the Avengers, just to clarify
	2:22pm Woo: Before I looked I though Buffalo Nickel was Tommy James
	2:23pm Gerry from Miami: Many of Brian Wilson's songs make me melt away! Too bad we don't have Carl around to sing them. He was the most gifted vocalist in the Beach Boys, imo.
	2:24pm Dennis Diken: @Woo - indeed, I can hear that too! @Gerry from Miami - yeah, I miss Carl - and Dennis!
	2:27pm Woo: There's Tommy!
	2:27pm Gerry from Miami: Not to overlook that great cut from the Association. The glee club at my college alma mater sang a few Association tunes at their concerts. Some intricate choral arrangements there!
	2:28pm Dennis Diken: @Woo - yeah, man! @Gerry from Miami - don't get me started about my The Association worship!
	2:30pm Woo: Everything's Archie!
	2:31pm poptone: wow melody hill! is that some kind of bootleg "fake" archies single?
	2:31pm Gerry from Miami: Ron Dante's 77th birthday coming up in a few weeks.
	2:33pm Stu Rutherford: Enjoy the Avengers show, Lesley!
	2:33pm Gerry from Miami: OK, Denny, who were the Revells?
	2:34pm Dennis Diken: @poptone - hey! "Melody Hill" was the b-side of "Sugar, Sugar"
	2:37pm LesleyK: Thanks Stu!
	2:37pm LesleyK: Dennis, I just checked my Archie's single and you are right. Wow I don't think I ever played the B side of that before
	2:38pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - The Revels were a Gary Usher studio concoction with the Wrecking Crew. I'd need to research who the singers were. named for Revell - the model car company!
	2:39pm MOM WHIG: Just saw Vin Scully passed away 8-2-22 Legendary Broadcaster for LA Dodgers
	2:40pm Gerry from Miami: The Beach Boys singing with their favorite backing band, the LA Wrecking Crew!
	2:40pm Dennis Diken: @LesleyK - ALWAYS check the b-side!!
	2:40pm poptone: Den sure I always played the b-side of "sugar sugar" and may have even had that track from a cereal box cardboard single too. just was thrown off on the weird looking "colored" archies on that sleeve
	2:41pm Dennis Diken: @poptone - I think the images were redrawn for some foreign market on that particular sleeve
	2:43pm LesleyK: Yes Dennis 🤦‍♀️
	2:46pm myron feld: Hey gang! Sorry I'm late! I missed some good ones.
	2:46pm MOM WHIG: Hi myron feld
	2:47pm LesleyK: Hi Myron!
	2:47pm Dennis Diken: @myron feld - glad you're here!
	2:49pm Gerry from Miami: Hello to myron feld!
	2:57pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi myron!
	3:00pm Dennis Diken: holy moly, that O.V. Wright track so rules!
	3:00pm myron feld: Nickel and a Nail is such a great song, and that graphic makes it that much greater!
	3:02pm Dennis Diken: @myron feld - this is not untrue!
	3:02pm Dudski: Wonder if that was Al Jackson or Howard Grimes on drums on A Nickel And A Nail?
	3:03pm Dennis Diken: hey Dudski - good question - my money's on Grimes!
	3:05pm Dudski: Good ear. Just found it and it was Grimes. I know nothing about drumming but from all those Al Green records I associate Al Jackson with a little fuller sound. But the Hi records stuff is such a distinctive sound you know it is one or the other.
	3:07pm Dudski: O.V. Wright was great.
	3:08pm Dudski: Mick Jagger must of listened to a lot of Don Covay early on.
	3:08pm Dennis Diken: @Dudski - re Don C/Mick J - to be sure!
	3:11pm Gerry from Miami: DENNY, Jim Gordon was a drum icon, for sure!
	3:12pm Nezrok: made it - hi all!
	3:13pm Gerry from Miami: Isn't this Cool Aid tune a Crusaders one as well? Different title, I think.
	3:14pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - oh man, Jim Gordon was thee dude! too bad his life took such a bad turn. don't know re Crusaders?
	3:15pm bradford: i remember this advert from WOR-AM when I was a kid!
	3:15pm Gerry from Miami: The Crusaders number I'm thinking of was "Put It Where You Want It."
	3:16pm Dennis Diken: @Nezrok - welcome!
	3:16pm Dennis Diken: @bradford - yeah, it's a bit of an earworm!
	3:18pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - is it the same tune or is it just similar?
	3:19pm MOM WHIG: DD Thanks for a GREAT time today here. Gotta go for now
	3:19pm Gerry from Miami: DENNY, if it isn't a carbon copy, it is awful close!
	3:20pm Pat in Toronto almost: Dennis I wanted to assure you that I have always been listening,just not texting.Apologies
	3:20pm Dennis Diken: @MOM WHIG - thank you so much! have a good afternoon!
	3:22pm Dennis Diken: @Pat in Toronto almost - thanks for being here, no apologies needed! @Gerry from Miami - I'll check it out!
	3:22pm Andrew in Toronto: @Dudski www.discogs.com... The Stones had Don Covay sing arrangements on Dirty Work.
	3:25pm myron feld: Bye, MOM!
	3:27pm Dudski: Andrew in Toronto: thanks, I didn't know that.
	3:33pm Gerry from Miami: Illes were supposedly really big in their native Hungary, but this is my first time hearing them.
	3:35pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - yeah, Illes made a lot of cool records!
	3:38pm Stu Rutherford: @Dennis - re: Jim Gordon - A few years ago I came to the morbid realization that John Lennon's 'Imagine' LP sessions featured two future murderers and two future murder victims (both of whom were killed right outside their respective NYC apartments).
	3:40pm Dennis Diken: @Stu - do tell?!
	3:40pm Gerry from Miami: My mom was a big fan of June Christy. I grew up knowing this song. Seductress pop! .
	3:42pm LesleyK: I still can't believe that last time you "aired" this show, I walked into my local record shop the same week and found that Something Cool LP right as I walked in.
	3:42pm Stu Rutherford: @Dennis - Phil Spector & Jim Gordon: murderers. And Lennon & King Curtis were both killed outside their apartments. Curtis less than a year after his sessions with Lennon.
	3:42pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - good stash to grow up with!
	3:43pm Dennis Diken: @Stu - ah! news we can use - but I wish we didn't need to!
	3:43pm Gerry from Miami: Murry Wilson thought he was as talented as his offspring: Brian, Carl and Dennis. Visions of grandeur. The Boys had to fire him, I think.
	3:43pm Stu Rutherford: Agreed, Dennis.
	3:43pm Dennis Diken: @LesleyK - right, I remember you telling me that at the time! that indeed is "something cool"!!
	3:46pm Andrew in Toronto: Thanks for another great show!
	3:47pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - indeed, The Boys fired Murry. but in all actuality, he was not an untalented man tho not in the same league as his sons. and the band probably wouldn't have gotten off the ground without his push and dedication.
	3:48pm Gerry from Miami: Such fun today, DENNY! Had a ball listening and posting.
	3:49pm Nezrok: Another "hot" show!
	3:49pm Dennis Diken: @Andrew in Toronto @Gerry from Miami - thank you, guys!
	3:49pm Dennis Diken: thanks, Nezrok!
	3:49pm LesleyK: Thanks for the show Dennis, gotta run into a meeting soon. Take care everyone!
	3:50pm Dennis Diken: I said that today was Jim Gordon's birthday but it ain't - it was when I ran this show last July!
	3:50pm Stu Rutherford: Take care, Lesley!
	3:50pm Dennis Diken: @LesleyK - muchos gracias!
	3:53pm Dennis Diken: and don't forget Stu's big show tonite - it wasn't on the air last year when this show ran!!
	3:53pm Dennis Diken: “BOY OH BOY, ‘YON DENIZENS’ ARE THE BEST! I SO APPRECIATE YOU ALL HANGING OUT IN ‘DENNY’S DEN’ AND MAKING THE SCENE TODAY! LOVE YOU ALL MADLY!!”
	3:53pm bradford: many thanks dennis
	3:54pm Dennis Diken: @bradford - at your service!

	3:40pm Dennis Diken: @Stu - do tell?!
	3:40pm Gerry from Miami: My mom was a big fan of June Christy. I grew up knowing this song. Seductress pop! .
	3:42pm LesleyK: I still can't believe that last time you "aired" this show, I walked into my local record shop the same week and found that Something Cool LP right as I walked in.
	3:42pm Stu Rutherford: @Dennis - Phil Spector & Jim Gordon: murderers. And Lennon & King Curtis were both killed outside their apartments. Curtis less than a year after his sessions with Lennon.
	3:42pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - good stash to grow up with!
	3:43pm Dennis Diken: @Stu - ah! news we can use - but I wish we didn't need to!
	3:43pm Gerry from Miami: Murry Wilson thought he was as talented as his offspring: Brian, Carl and Dennis. Visions of grandeur. The Boys had to fire him, I think.
	3:43pm Stu Rutherford: Agreed, Dennis.
	3:43pm Dennis Diken: @LesleyK - right, I remember you telling me that at the time! that indeed is "something cool"!!
	3:46pm Andrew in Toronto: Thanks for another great show!
	3:47pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - indeed, The Boys fired Murry. but in all actuality, he was not an untalented man tho not in the same league as his sons. and the band probably wouldn't have gotten off the ground without his push and dedication.
	3:48pm Gerry from Miami: Such fun today, DENNY! Had a ball listening and posting.
	3:49pm Nezrok: Another "hot" show!
	3:49pm Dennis Diken: @Andrew in Toronto @Gerry from Miami - thank you, guys!
	3:49pm Dennis Diken: thanks, Nezrok!
	3:49pm LesleyK: Thanks for the show Dennis, gotta run into a meeting soon. Take care everyone!
	3:50pm Dennis Diken: I said that today was Jim Gordon's birthday but it ain't - it was when I ran this show last July!
	3:50pm Stu Rutherford: Take care, Lesley!
	3:50pm Dennis Diken: @LesleyK - muchos gracias!
	3:53pm Dennis Diken: and don't forget Stu's big show tonite - it wasn't on the air last year when this show ran!!
	3:53pm Dennis Diken: “BOY OH BOY, ‘YON DENIZENS’ ARE THE BEST! I SO APPRECIATE YOU ALL HANGING OUT IN ‘DENNY’S DEN’ AND MAKING THE SCENE TODAY! LOVE YOU ALL MADLY!!”
