	3:37pm Funky16Corners: Hey NGH!
	3:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "El Bandido" by "Georgie Fame" Featuring a young Mitch Mitchell on drums!
	3:41pm Erica: Still trying to figure out the arrows.

	3:44pm Michael 98145: ↳ Erica @3:29 Yes! fun
	3:46pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @3:44 Thanks String!
	3:46pm Jeff Golick: ↳ Erica @3:41 Mousing over the arrows and holding for a sec provides a handy ID for what a particular arrow is designed to do. I get the comment threads more readily than the song arrows. Also: hello!
	3:46pm Zipperhead7: When I depart this blighted orb, I hope I am greeted by a chorus of seraphim singing "boogaloo"
	3:47pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Jeff!
	3:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Le Winston" by "Nilsmen" This was a promo for cigarettes, thus the RJR label. One of the picture sleeves features Brigitte Bardot smoking.
	3:50pm Jeff Golick: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:48 Of course, Bardot was always smoking.
	3:51pm northguineahills: ↳ Erica @3:41 you follow the arrows to do the neutron dance....
	3:51pm Michael 98145: ↳ Jeff Golick @3:50 so to speak 😎
	3:51pm Funky16Corners: True, true...
	3:53pm Erica: ↳ northguineahills @3:51 Very funny.
	3:53pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Ali" by "Andre Brasseur" Ooh, I forgot, a stop in Belgium!
	3:56pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Song: "Ali" by "Andre Brasseur" Road testing the Maestro fuzztone on that guitar solo
	3:57pm Funky16Corners: Brasseur did some wild stuff. Now really known over here other than Hammond collectors and Northern Soul fans (for one 45)
	3:58pm Michael 98145: Like what we're hearing
	3:59pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:58 Then my evil plans have been successful!
	🥁 4:00pm WR: Hi Larry, drummer streamers
	4:00pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Greazee Pts 1&2" by "Billy Preston" Billy was 16 when he recorded this
	4:00pm Funky16Corners: Hey WR!
	4:03pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:00 Young and talented.
	4:13pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Roadside 75" by "O'Jahs" I assumed the O'Jahs were a reggae/dub O'Jays cover band. (see Jah Division)
	🥁 4:13pm WR: ↳ Song: "Shimmy" by "Toussaint McCall" Had always known McCall for his vocals, didn't realize he did instrumental tracks featuring his organ playing.
	4:14pm Funky16Corners: ↳ northguineahills @4:13 With their big hit, "For the Love of MON"
	4:16pm Little Danny: thanks for the promo larry!

	4:25pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:24 All the big stars!
	4:25pm StringOFperils: Off to a classic start
	4:25pm Little Danny: indeed
	4:27pm StringOFperils: This station is so good that I feel HEALED
	🥁 4:27pm WR: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:14 After 20 minutes of searching, I can only assume that was a joke, playing off both O'Jays / Money & Rastafari Jah / Mon
	4:27pm Little Danny: larry don't wanna derail the xmas special focus but have you heard jimmy mcgriff's xmas-themed 45 "Chip Chip"?
	4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @4:27 You are correct!
	4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Little Danny @4:27 I have not!
	4:28pm Little Danny: just emailed ya :) it's a burner
	4:29pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Little Danny @4:28 Thanks!
	4:29pm Zipperhead7: ↳ StringOFperils @4:27 Yes, I had to move the furniture so Zipperdawg and I could do the shing-a-ling
	4:30pm StringOFperils: Kenzo needs to build something that allows the listener to instantly email a link to a friend, fellow traveler, or significant other one wants to freak out
	4:30pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:30 That's a great idea!
	4:33pm StringOFperils: I can almost see Mel co-piloting that sled, like he's always been there and still is
	4:36pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:33 Mel was the best
	4:37pm Erica: ↳ Song: "The Loneliest Christmas Tree" by "Little Lisa" Another 60s Christmas gem discovered.

	4:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:38 KAY Lewis...
	4:39pm StringOFperils: How was that NOT in the Christmas cannon?
	4:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @4:38 Paul F Tompkins is one of the funniest people. He started out on Mr Show
	4:39pm StringOFperils: I have this LP from back then. It's superbo
	4:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:39 It was a pretty rare 45 that was reissued along with Lisa Miller's equally rare LP
	4:40pm northguineahills: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:39 ok, now I'm trying to remember who he was...
	4:40pm Funky16Corners: Nilsson's voice goes right to my heart.
	4:41pm Funky16Corners: ↳ northguineahills @4:40 Google him, yiu'll recognize him, though he was heavier back then
	4:41pm StringOFperils: I think this is his best album

	3:46pm Jeff Golick: ↳ Erica @3:41 Mousing over the arrows and holding for a sec provides a handy ID for what a particular arrow is designed to do. I get the comment threads more readily than the song arrows. Also: hello!
	3:46pm Zipperhead7: When I depart this blighted orb, I hope I am greeted by a chorus of seraphim singing "boogaloo"
	3:47pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Jeff!
	3:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Le Winston" by "Nilsmen" This was a promo for cigarettes, thus the RJR label. One of the picture sleeves features Brigitte Bardot smoking.

	3:51pm northguineahills: ↳ Erica @3:41 you follow the arrows to do the neutron dance....

	🥁 4:27pm WR: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:14 After 20 minutes of searching, I can only assume that was a joke, playing off both O'Jays / Money & Rastafari Jah / Mon
	4:27pm Little Danny: larry don't wanna derail the xmas special focus but have you heard jimmy mcgriff's xmas-themed 45 "Chip Chip"?

	4:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:39 It was a pretty rare 45 that was reissued along with Lisa Miller's equally rare LP
	4:40pm northguineahills: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:39 ok, now I'm trying to remember who he was...
