	🥁 11:21am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:08 Hiya, Will. How’s by you today? Are you related to Megan Thee Stallion? Distant cousin or something?
	11:21am Jeff: I think Bill Haley deserves a reappraisal.
	🥁 11:21am Will thee Sound Guy: hi doctorjazz!
	11:22am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:21 Hi Will!
	11:22am Peter Tomlinson: @Jeff: Ain’t THAT the truth!
	🥁 11:23am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:21 nah not really, I used to be 'the' changed it to 'a'... then Billy Jam told me I should change it to 'Thee'....
	11:23am sydnius: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:23 how about ’yer’
	🥁 11:24am Will thee Sound Guy: It's sunny today in Orange County, NY
	11:24am doctorjazz: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:21 Hello Will!
	11:24am dan: ↳ Song: "The Wayward Wind" by "P.J. O'Connell" He died? I did not know that.
	🥁 11:25am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ sydnius @11:23 I don't want to step on Paul's toes
	11:25am sydnius: it’s a little presumptuous too. It does add the entendre to the wiil, however.
	11:27am StringOFperils: PLEDGE before rock'n' roll's pulse gets any fainter. Don't let it become the fossil record.
	11:27am doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "The Wayward Wind" by "P.J. O'Connell" I didn't realize this was a cover, Patsy Clint (MsJazz recognized it, original much slower...)
	11:27am Jeff: To all you Q fans out there. None other than Joey Spampinato is scheduled to appear at the Jazz Foundation’s Great Night In Harlem benefit at the Apollo on March 30.
	🥁 11:29am Will thee Sound Guy: I donate a bunch, but I'm technically not part of the station, a few years ago I think 'the' was confusing some and bothering others. I could be Will the Sound Guy from Chester, NY... but It's way too long . I may shrink it to Will tSG it's about Dan time 🕑
	11:30am doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @11:27 She was thrilled to recognize song I didn't know...😁)
	11:30am dan: Michael McDonald with those great harmonies.
	11:30am sydnius: 🍕 anyone? Is that Micheal McDonald I hear?
	🥁 11:31am chresti: ↳ doctorjazz @11:30 I bet!
	🥁 11:31am wmfromD: One of my fave Dan tunes from my fave Dan album.
	11:32am sydnius: The 🐸 tone is a reference tone, produced at our operating level
	🥁 11:33am chresti: ↳ sydnius @11:32 There they are!
	11:34am doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @11:27 Patsy Cline, of course...)
	11:34am StringOFperils: Gee I wonder what an idle bad-sneaker-wearer would spend a large sum of money on near Radio City in 1974, loaded on piña coladas. Probably amoxycillin in the offing...
	🥁 11:35am Will thee Sound Guy: 🐸 🐸 🐸
	11:36am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Jeff @11:27 Thanks for that Jeff.
	11:37am Franco Twinkie: Hi Bob. I remember when the Sandpipers were on Ninth Street West - an afternoon dance show. The bands that guested were mostly Hollywood rabble - The Doors, The Seeds, Music Machine - whoever was playing on Sunset that night. Well, when The Sandpipers sang they looked like my dad! Nice slacks, cardigan sweaters and polished shoes. Weirdly, even though I was totally absorbed in bands wearing striped pants and suede boots, I LOVED that song! It was all over the radio, which at the time was very segregated - Jefferson Airplane, then Frank Sinatra, then Leslie Gore, then The Yardbirds. Closer to WFMU that the crud you hear on the broadcast radio today. That's why I'm here, I guess.
	🥁 11:42am Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Franco!
	11:43am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:42 Hey Will! I met to say Unsegregated. I just got out of bed.
	11:44am doctorjazz: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:35 Sounds like the singers are not quite there intonation wise (and I l love dBs/Holsapple)
	11:45am doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @11:44 (Didn't mean to tag Will...)
	🥁 11:45am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ doctorjazz @11:45 all good, I hear that too
	11:45am Franco Twinkie: I'm going to stop typing until I wake up.
	🥁 11:46am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:45 all good mr Twinkie
	11:47am sydnius: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:45 🖖🏻👍🏻
	11:47am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:43 Mahalo Franco!
	11:47am StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:45 Your Sandpipers enthusiasm absolves you of all your sins.
	11:48am doctorjazz: ↳ StringOFperils @11:47 😂😂😂😂
	🥁 11:48am chresti: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:46 Charlotte looks like you!
	🥁 11:49am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ chresti @11:48 she tried bacon for the first time today, she's a fan
	11:49am doctorjazz: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:46 I just enlarged the photo, really sweet!!!!
	11:50am Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @11:47 Actually, It was Guantanamera, their first radio hit that I freaked out over, which was in 1966.
	11:50am Yes: Hello all. Sunny ade always the cure
	🥁 11:52am Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you, it's from Tuesday, I think it was the last time she can wear the jersey tomato onesie 🍅... getting way to tight
	11:53am sydnius: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:49 my son (16) didn’t like bacon until I gave him bacon cheese fries
	11:54am StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:50 Ha ha. I had to step up to a mic and do the spoken word bit in a live children's concert when I was in grade 6 ("the words mean I am a truthful man from the land of the palm trees etc)
	11:55am doctorjazz: Speaking of bacon and out children... youtu.be...
	11:55am doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @11:55 *our children...
	11:56am sydnius: I wonder if Bob has played Doki Doki LC after he keeps playing all the kawaii tunes
	11:56am Doug Schulkind: Eternal love for Laura Nyro! Eternal love for Bob Brainen!
	11:57am Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @11:54 That is so great! I'm sure you were fantastic.
	11:58am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:57 Mahalo Franco!
	11:58am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:58 Andrew the great!
	11:59am Jeff: The only things humans have done worth anything are music, art, and literature. Other than that, we’re a plague on the planet.
	🥁 12:00pm Will thee Sound Guy: 🐸 🐸 🐸
	12:00pm sydnius: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @12:00 it ain’t easy, bein green
	12:01pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Jeff @11:59 I agree! But I would add cooking.
	🥁 12:03pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:56 I second this emotion, with what’s remaining of my lifetime of devotion.
	12:04pm Jeff: @Franco - I hear you re cooking, but we torture and kill animals in the process. We suck!
	12:08pm Jeff: Manu Dibango, Olutunji, all the salsa cats, etc were world music before that term was coined. “Soul Makossa” was a big hat, back in the day. And, of course, there was bossa nova too!
	12:08pm Jeff: Big HIT!
	12:12pm Jeff: I think I saw Sunny Ade’s first NY gig at the Savoy produced by Verna Gillis. Anyone remember Soundscape on 52nd and 10th? Verna ran that space/loft. Went there many times. Loved it so much, I even got mugged and stabbed in the back on my way there. As I was laying in the hospital, all I could think about was the gig I was missing.
	12:15pm doctorjazz: I got to see Sunny Ade once as well.
	12:15pm doctorjazz: ORNETTE!!
	12:17pm StringOFperils: ↳ Jeff @12:12 Ouch. Literally a die-hard fan.
	12:18pm sydnius: ↳ doctorjazz @12:15 O can be difficult to bring to a relationship. My wife hates this kind of jazz, very specifically.
	12:20pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ doctorjazz @12:15 I saw Ornette and Prime Time in 1982 at the Westwood Playhouse. The stage was decorated like a sit-com living room. It was the classic line up - two drummers, two bass players and Ornette in the middle going nuts. It was funny and wild. Not unlike an improbable dream.
	12:21pm doctorjazz: ↳ Jeff @12:12 Wow-the worst club mishap I ever had was at the Mudd Club...I had bumped into someone and spilled their drink. I was apologetic, they were furious. I left the show, found I had 4 flat tires. Couldn't be sure, but pretty sure it was the same person.
	12:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:20 I got to see Ornette at Town Hall; they did a concert (and an album), first featuring the classic Quartet, then after intermission, Prime Time, his electric band. Great show!
	12:25pm StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:20 Saw the same a few blocks from here around '88. And felt the same, i.e. 'is this really happening??'
	12:28pm doctorjazz: ↳ sydnius @12:18 MsJazz doesn't like Ornette and other "free" music (she's been stuck at aome with me, the last time was BassDrumBone, who were playing very "out" that night)
	12:31pm sydnius: so many ⭐️ today, thx for the great sets Bob
	12:31pm dan: @doctorjazz Where is/was the Mudd Club?
	12:34pm dan: I misread the Artist as the John Birch Society
	🥁 12:34pm Will thee Sound Guy: Bob and Pete are tearing it up today, diggin the tunes!
	12:34pm StringOFperils: Mudd Club was down in Tribeca, when there was nothing re-developed down there. A good snapshot of how that was is in Scorcese's 'After Hours', a vast post-industrial urban wasteland
	12:35pm StringOFperils: ...although I think that was the 'meatpacking' district
	12:36pm doctorjazz: ↳ dan @12:31 It's long gone, part of the early music scene in the early 80's in lower Manhattan. I believe I was seeing Glenn Branca and his guitar army.
	12:37pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @12:34 I love the scene in After Hours where the vigilantes were walking down the street with lit torches following a Mr. Softee truck....or did I dream that?
	12:38pm StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:37 That happened. Katherine O'Hara was the ice-cream vendor and vigilante leader
	🥁 12:38pm Will thee Sound Guy: 🐸 🐸 🐸
	12:39pm Pax: ↳ Song: "IT'll Never Happen Again" by "Lady Blackbird" Nice cover.
	12:39pm Jeff: ORNETTE COLEMAN June 30, 1977 I would like you to know something about the music you are about to hear. This music is made up of written and unwritten parts. The players have their written parts to play and the freedom to play any musical idea, providing they can return to the original part at will. For example, SOUND AMOEBA is written in 8 parts. Each part is played solo and then all together. I call this form of playing "harmolodic." It is a music that fulfills one's musical views without being restricted to form. This program is dedicated to ail those whose lives can be helped by sound. Enjoy. Qrath Calamen PART ONE 1. 2• 3. 4. 5. NAME BRAIN THE BLACK HOUSE MR. AND MRS.

	12:39pm Frank Zaatar: I saw so much great music at the Mudd Club. Frankly, a lot more than CBGB. Like Captain Beefheart and Pere Ubu on the same bill.
	12:40pm Jeff: The above were the program notes from my first Ornette gig.
	12:40pm doctorjazz: 🐸🐸🐸
	12:41pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @12:38 Like so many movies, I saw it only once - in a theater.
	12:41pm doctorjazz: ↳ Frank Zaatar @12:39 Same, the variety of booking there was first rate (though the venue was not quite...)
	12:42pm Jeff: It was signed by Ornette but translated to some strange name by the copy and paste process.
	12:43pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Frank Zaatar @12:39 WHAA!? I saw both at The Whisky - but not on the same night!
	12:44pm sydnius: 💚 TTYD
	12:44pm Frank Zaatar: Binghamton, home of WHRW. The radio station that saved my life (way back in the day).
	12:45pm doctorjazz: Never caught Beefheart, never saw Pere Ubu (but I did get to see David Thomas solo at another defunkt club, Danceteria).
	12:47pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ doctorjazz @12:45 The Captain opened for Pere Ubu. He had one of his band members go up to the mic and say "He's trying to keep up with the New Wave."
	12:51pm doctorjazz: ↳ Frank Zaatar @12:47 Sounds great! Jealous!
	12:52pm doctorjazz: Pere Ubu still tours, no?
	12:53pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Van Dieman's Land" by "Shirley Collins & Albion C... Love these English folk-rock female sigers (tend to sing without much vibrato, a very delicate sound).
	12:55pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ doctorjazz @12:52 I've Dave Thomas about half a dozen times, including a reunion of Rocket from the Tombs.
	12:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Frank Zaatar @12:47 That's hilarious! One time Captain Beefheart was guesting on the radio station down the street from my house. I intercepted him coming out the back door. I had him sign my copy of Trout Mask Replica in the parking lot. I was wearing some thrift store rag. Don, who was sitting down looked up at me and said "That's a nice jacket man! You know, I invented punk rock."
	12:55pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @12:53 Check your email for Pere Ubu project.
	12:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Ode To Ethiopa" by "John Betsch Society" Betch was one of 2 drummers in Henry Threadgills Sextette (a band I saw and loved).
	12:59pm doctorjazz: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:55 Thanks, Andrew (that link says Ubu is playing at Le Poisson Rouge NYC on June 19)
	12:59pm Doug Schulkind: I was with Max Roach in his Central Park West apartment doing an interview when he received a phone call from John Betsch.
	1:00pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @12:59 They`re always interesting live.
	1:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:59 That first part of the sentence ("I was with Max Roach...) makes my mind EXPLODE!!!)
	1:01pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Hold On To The Best Times" by "Tom Shotton" Bit of a Steely Dan feel, no?
	1:02pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "This Is The Day" by "Ivy" Don't know Ivy's music, that was another project of Adam Schlesinger (from Fountains of Wayne, RIP)
	1:03pm Gerry from Miami: Greetings to you, Bob and Pete! Are Ivy and the Ivy League the same band? Your album jacket photo shows the Ivy League, but the playlist shows Ivy. Just asking.
	1:03pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Hold On To The Best Times" by "Tom Shotton" Maybe a bit NRBQ as well (wonder why Bob would dig this...???)
	1:06pm StringOFperils: One of the times I saw Pere Ubu as at Danceteria (pretty sure) where doctorjazz saw them, maybe the same show? Jim Jones on guitar that time.
	1:07pm StringOFperils: ...with Brian Woodbury warming up...
	1:08pm doctorjazz: ↳ StringOFperils @1:06 It wasn't Pere Ubu that I saw, was David Thomas (with the Pedestrians, I believe). It was Danceteria.
	1:09pm Jeff: Eddie Hinton had more soul than Soul Train!
	1:09pm spodiodi: greetings, Bob and Pete! and all
	1:10pm StringOFperils: ↳ doctorjazz @1:08 That's what happens when you see David Thomas too many times; you can't read anymore.
	1:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ StringOFperils @1:10 I believe he IS capable of reordering your neurons!😀
	1:15pm Listener Robert: Wow, without my help this year, you've raised $80k just since 6 this morning. At this hand-over-fist rate, they could hit the goal before Hoof & Mouth again -- and that's $100k more than last year!! It's the best charity of all: our own amusement,
	🥁 1:19pm (Mr) Bill: What a coincidence! A couple of days ago, I asked my wife what a “lou” is.
	1:21pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ spodiodi @1:09 mahalo spodi!
	1:21pm Peter Tomlinson: Some incredible comments today, everyone! You restore my flagging faith in the people’s forward motion…
	1:21pm Doug Schulkind: Wee Dot is a sweet J.J. Johnson original. Was such a shock when he took his own life.
	1:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Wee Dot" by "Bebop Blues" This reminded me of a reissue coming out at the ene of the month, that I'm salivating over a bit...craftrecordings.com...
	1:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @1:22 (and, I likely have most of what's on this set, but still...)
	1:24pm spodiodi: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @1:21 hi Andrew!
	1:25pm doctorjazz: Pledge! Ribit! Ribit! Pledge!
	1:27pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @1:25 Thanks for the link.
	1:28pm StringOFperils: Dan Blocker. Boss Hoss before The Sonics
	1:35pm Franco Twinkie: I want that!
	1:36pm Gerry from Miami: Speaking of Pere Ubu, I had the pleasure of seeing them as part of a 2-night extravaganza at the Santa Monica Civic in conjunction with the release of the "new wave" film, "Urrgh, a Music War." Other bands who took part included Magazine, X, Dead Boys, and Devo, among others.
	1:37pm sydnius: ↳ Gerry from Miami @1:36 I saw Pere Ubu opening for TMBG. killed it.
	1:38pm doctorjazz: ↳ sydnius @1:37 That's another killer double bill! (TMBG are on a world tour right now, tix all sold out in NY area)
	1:39pm doctorjazz: ↳ Gerry from Miami @1:36 And that sounds amazing!
	1:40pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @1:22 This is why I may never retire, LOL!
	1:41pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Gerry from Miami @1:36 I went to the first night - X, Cramps, Dead Kennedys and Chrome. Strangely, I didn't have a very good time. It was the summer of 1980 and was tired of going to punk shows. I had been doing it since 1976 and was a little crispy around the edges.
	🥁 1:44pm (Mr) Bill: Bob and Pete make Bobby Vinton safe for music cognoscenti. Ceaseless wonders!
	1:45pm Gerry from Miami: @FRANCO TWINKIE. I just remembered that Wall of Voodoo played on the second night as well.
	1:46pm StringOFperils: AM rotation of Bobby Vinton's Blue Velvet cursed my childhood
	1:47pm doctorjazz: ↳ (Mr) Bill @1:44 👍
	1:48pm Andrew in Toronto: That was a delightful show! Thanks Bob and Pete!
	1:48pm Gerry from Miami: They made us learn to slow dance to that Bobby Vinton scmaltz in 7th and 8th grade gym class!!
	1:51pm doctorjazz: Time for some JELLY ROLL!
	🥁 1:51pm (Mr) Bill: Thank G-d I don’t have to describe this show to anyone. “Delightfully eclectic” doesn’t come close.
	🥁 1:52pm (Mr) Bill: No Jelly Roll Morton, no Randy Newman.
	1:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ Gerry from Miami @1:48 Woulda been interesting if they tried that in my 7th/8th grade class, all boys parochial school...)
	1:52pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Gerry from Miami @1:45 Earlier that summer, I had seen Wall of Voodoo at Beyond Baroque in Venice. A very sinister vibe was casting it's spell that night. Wall of Voodoo stopped playing and the audience went nuts. Joe Nanini, the drummer stood in front of the crowd and baited the audience. "Motherfuckers meet me out side and I'll kick your ass!" Ah, those were the days.
	1:53pm Dean: Saw Kommunity FK at Beyond Baroque. And Richard Meltzer.
	🥁 1:54pm listener 126464: Been listening, thanks Bob & Pete! Hey, radio pals!
	1:55pm spodiodi: thank you, Bob and Pete! great show
	1:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @1:53 Beyond Baroque had great shows!
	1:55pm Gerry from Miami: @doctorjazz. For sure! LOL!
	1:55pm Dean: A great venue, indeed. And it's mostly about poetry!
	🥁 1:56pm chresti: Thanks Bob and Pete!
	1:56pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @1:55 Chresti and I met Richard Hell there.
	1:56pm Doug Schulkind: Your are the straw that stirs the Drummer drink, Mr. Brainen!
	🥁 1:56pm wmfromD: Another great one. Thanks Bob and Pete.
	1:56pm Dean: Nice! Was his band in town?
	1:57pm doctorjazz: Almost quittin' time, great show, thanks Bob and Pete! Laters all!
	1:57pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @1:56 No, he was reading from his new book, Hot and Cold.
	1:58pm Dean: Hallelujah! Thank you!
	1:59pm doctorjazz: NO FROGS!!!!! THE EARTH IS ENDING!!!
	1:59pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Bob and Pete!
	🥁 1:59pm (Mr) Bill: With immense appreciation until Saturday morning comes again……
	1:59pm StringOFperils: Thanks! Great show (no surprise there)
	🥁 1:59pm Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Bob, Pete, Volunteers, and pledgers!!

	11:24am doctorjazz: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:21 Hello Will!
	11:24am dan: ↳ Song: "The Wayward Wind" by "P.J. O'Connell" He died? I did not know that.
	🥁 11:25am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ sydnius @11:23 I don't want to step on Paul's toes
	11:25am sydnius: it’s a little presumptuous too. It does add the entendre to the wiil, however.
	11:27am StringOFperils: PLEDGE before rock'n' roll's pulse gets any fainter. Don't let it become the fossil record.
	11:27am doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "The Wayward Wind" by "P.J. O'Connell" I didn't realize this was a cover, Patsy Clint (MsJazz recognized it, original much slower...)
	11:27am Jeff: To all you Q fans out there. None other than Joey Spampinato is scheduled to appear at the Jazz Foundation’s Great Night In Harlem benefit at the Apollo on March 30.
	🥁 11:29am Will thee Sound Guy: I donate a bunch, but I'm technically not part of the station, a few years ago I think 'the' was confusing some and bothering others. I could be Will the Sound Guy from Chester, NY... but It's way too long . I may shrink it to Will tSG it's about Dan time 🕑
	11:30am doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @11:27 She was thrilled to recognize song I didn't know...😁)
	11:30am dan: Michael McDonald with those great harmonies.

	🥁 11:33am chresti: ↳ sydnius @11:32 There they are!
	11:34am doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @11:27 Patsy Cline, of course...)
	11:34am StringOFperils: Gee I wonder what an idle bad-sneaker-wearer would spend a large sum of money on near Radio City in 1974, loaded on piña coladas. Probably amoxycillin in the offing...
	🥁 11:35am Will thee Sound Guy: 🐸 🐸 🐸
	11:36am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Jeff @11:27 Thanks for that Jeff.
	11:37am Franco Twinkie: Hi Bob. I remember when the Sandpipers were on Ninth Street West - an afternoon dance show. The bands that guested were mostly Hollywood rabble - The Doors, The Seeds, Music Machine - whoever was playing on Sunset that night. Well, when The Sandpipers sang they looked like my dad! Nice slacks, cardigan sweaters and polished shoes. Weirdly, even though I was totally absorbed in bands wearing striped pants and suede boots, I LOVED that song! It was all over the radio, which at the time was very segregated - Jefferson Airplane, then Frank Sinatra, then Leslie Gore, then The Yardbirds. Closer to WFMU that the crud you hear on the broadcast radio today. That's why I'm here, I guess.
	🥁 11:42am Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Franco!
	11:43am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:42 Hey Will! I met to say Unsegregated. I just got out of bed.
	11:44am doctorjazz: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:35 Sounds like the singers are not quite there intonation wise (and I l love dBs/Holsapple)
	11:45am doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @11:44 (Didn't mean to tag Will...)
	🥁 11:45am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ doctorjazz @11:45 all good, I hear that too
	11:45am Franco Twinkie: I'm going to stop typing until I wake up.
	🥁 11:46am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:45 all good mr Twinkie
	11:47am sydnius: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:45 🖖🏻👍🏻
	11:47am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:43 Mahalo Franco!
	11:47am StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:45 Your Sandpipers enthusiasm absolves you of all your sins.
	11:48am doctorjazz: ↳ StringOFperils @11:47 😂😂😂😂
	🥁 11:48am chresti: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:46 Charlotte looks like you!
	🥁 11:49am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ chresti @11:48 she tried bacon for the first time today, she's a fan
	11:49am doctorjazz: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:46 I just enlarged the photo, really sweet!!!!
	11:50am Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @11:47 Actually, It was Guantanamera, their first radio hit that I freaked out over, which was in 1966.
	11:50am Yes: Hello all. Sunny ade always the cure
	🥁 11:52am Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you, it's from Tuesday, I think it was the last time she can wear the jersey tomato onesie 🍅... getting way to tight
	11:53am sydnius: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:49 my son (16) didn’t like bacon until I gave him bacon cheese fries
	11:54am StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:50 Ha ha. I had to step up to a mic and do the spoken word bit in a live children's concert when I was in grade 6 ("the words mean I am a truthful man from the land of the palm trees etc)
	11:55am doctorjazz: Speaking of bacon and out children... youtu.be...
	11:55am doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @11:55 *our children...
	11:56am sydnius: I wonder if Bob has played Doki Doki LC after he keeps playing all the kawaii tunes
	11:56am Doug Schulkind: Eternal love for Laura Nyro! Eternal love for Bob Brainen!
	11:57am Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @11:54 That is so great! I'm sure you were fantastic.
	11:58am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:57 Mahalo Franco!
	11:58am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:58 Andrew the great!
	11:59am Jeff: The only things humans have done worth anything are music, art, and literature. Other than that, we’re a plague on the planet.
	🥁 12:00pm Will thee Sound Guy: 🐸 🐸 🐸
	12:00pm sydnius: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @12:00 it ain’t easy, bein green
	12:01pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Jeff @11:59 I agree! But I would add cooking.
	🥁 12:03pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:56 I second this emotion, with what’s remaining of my lifetime of devotion.
	12:04pm Jeff: @Franco - I hear you re cooking, but we torture and kill animals in the process. We suck!
	12:08pm Jeff: Manu Dibango, Olutunji, all the salsa cats, etc were world music before that term was coined. “Soul Makossa” was a big hat, back in the day. And, of course, there was bossa nova too!
	12:08pm Jeff: Big HIT!
	12:12pm Jeff: I think I saw Sunny Ade’s first NY gig at the Savoy produced by Verna Gillis. Anyone remember Soundscape on 52nd and 10th? Verna ran that space/loft. Went there many times. Loved it so much, I even got mugged and stabbed in the back on my way there. As I was laying in the hospital, all I could think about was the gig I was missing.
	12:15pm doctorjazz: I got to see Sunny Ade once as well.
	12:15pm doctorjazz: ORNETTE!!
	12:17pm StringOFperils: ↳ Jeff @12:12 Ouch. Literally a die-hard fan.
	12:18pm sydnius: ↳ doctorjazz @12:15 O can be difficult to bring to a relationship. My wife hates this kind of jazz, very specifically.
	12:20pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ doctorjazz @12:15 I saw Ornette and Prime Time in 1982 at the Westwood Playhouse. The stage was decorated like a sit-com living room. It was the classic line up - two drummers, two bass players and Ornette in the middle going nuts. It was funny and wild. Not unlike an improbable dream.
	12:21pm doctorjazz: ↳ Jeff @12:12 Wow-the worst club mishap I ever had was at the Mudd Club...I had bumped into someone and spilled their drink. I was apologetic, they were furious. I left the show, found I had 4 flat tires. Couldn't be sure, but pretty sure it was the same person.
	12:23pm doctorjazz: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:20 I got to see Ornette at Town Hall; they did a concert (and an album), first featuring the classic Quartet, then after intermission, Prime Time, his electric band. Great show!
	12:25pm StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:20 Saw the same a few blocks from here around '88. And felt the same, i.e. 'is this really happening??'
	12:28pm doctorjazz: ↳ sydnius @12:18 MsJazz doesn't like Ornette and other "free" music (she's been stuck at aome with me, the last time was BassDrumBone, who were playing very "out" that night)
	12:31pm sydnius: so many ⭐️ today, thx for the great sets Bob
	12:31pm dan: @doctorjazz Where is/was the Mudd Club?
	12:34pm dan: I misread the Artist as the John Birch Society
	🥁 12:34pm Will thee Sound Guy: Bob and Pete are tearing it up today, diggin the tunes!
	12:34pm StringOFperils: Mudd Club was down in Tribeca, when there was nothing re-developed down there. A good snapshot of how that was is in Scorcese's 'After Hours', a vast post-industrial urban wasteland
	12:35pm StringOFperils: ...although I think that was the 'meatpacking' district
	12:36pm doctorjazz: ↳ dan @12:31 It's long gone, part of the early music scene in the early 80's in lower Manhattan. I believe I was seeing Glenn Branca and his guitar army.
	12:37pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @12:34 I love the scene in After Hours where the vigilantes were walking down the street with lit torches following a Mr. Softee truck....or did I dream that?
	12:38pm StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:37 That happened. Katherine O'Hara was the ice-cream vendor and vigilante leader
	🥁 12:38pm Will thee Sound Guy: 🐸 🐸 🐸
	12:39pm Pax: ↳ Song: "IT'll Never Happen Again" by "Lady Blackbird" Nice cover.
	12:39pm Jeff: ORNETTE COLEMAN June 30, 1977 I would like you to know something about the music you are about to hear. This music is made up of written and unwritten parts. The players have their written parts to play and the freedom to play any musical idea, providing they can return to the original part at will. For example, SOUND AMOEBA is written in 8 parts. Each part is played solo and then all together. I call this form of playing "harmolodic." It is a music that fulfills one's musical views without being restricted to form. This program is dedicated to ail those whose lives can be helped by sound. Enjoy. Qrath Calamen PART ONE 1. 2• 3. 4. 5. NAME BRAIN THE BLACK HOUSE MR. AND MRS.

	12:39pm Frank Zaatar: I saw so much great music at the Mudd Club. Frankly, a lot more than CBGB. Like Captain Beefheart and Pere Ubu on the same bill.
	12:40pm Jeff: The above were the program notes from my first Ornette gig.
	12:40pm doctorjazz: 🐸🐸🐸
	12:41pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @12:38 Like so many movies, I saw it only once - in a theater.
	12:41pm doctorjazz: ↳ Frank Zaatar @12:39 Same, the variety of booking there was first rate (though the venue was not quite...)
	12:42pm Jeff: It was signed by Ornette but translated to some strange name by the copy and paste process.
	12:43pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Frank Zaatar @12:39 WHAA!? I saw both at The Whisky - but not on the same night!
	12:44pm sydnius: 💚 TTYD
	12:44pm Frank Zaatar: Binghamton, home of WHRW. The radio station that saved my life (way back in the day).
	12:45pm doctorjazz: Never caught Beefheart, never saw Pere Ubu (but I did get to see David Thomas solo at another defunkt club, Danceteria).
	12:47pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ doctorjazz @12:45 The Captain opened for Pere Ubu. He had one of his band members go up to the mic and say "He's trying to keep up with the New Wave."
	12:51pm doctorjazz: ↳ Frank Zaatar @12:47 Sounds great! Jealous!
	12:52pm doctorjazz: Pere Ubu still tours, no?
	12:53pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Van Dieman's Land" by "Shirley Collins & Albion C... Love these English folk-rock female sigers (tend to sing without much vibrato, a very delicate sound).
	12:55pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ doctorjazz @12:52 I've Dave Thomas about half a dozen times, including a reunion of Rocket from the Tombs.
	12:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Frank Zaatar @12:47 That's hilarious! One time Captain Beefheart was guesting on the radio station down the street from my house. I intercepted him coming out the back door. I had him sign my copy of Trout Mask Replica in the parking lot. I was wearing some thrift store rag. Don, who was sitting down looked up at me and said "That's a nice jacket man! You know, I invented punk rock."
	12:55pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @12:53 Check your email for Pere Ubu project.
	12:56pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Ode To Ethiopa" by "John Betsch Society" Betch was one of 2 drummers in Henry Threadgills Sextette (a band I saw and loved).
	12:59pm doctorjazz: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:55 Thanks, Andrew (that link says Ubu is playing at Le Poisson Rouge NYC on June 19)
	12:59pm Doug Schulkind: I was with Max Roach in his Central Park West apartment doing an interview when he received a phone call from John Betsch.
	1:00pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @12:59 They`re always interesting live.
	1:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:59 That first part of the sentence ("I was with Max Roach...) makes my mind EXPLODE!!!)
	1:01pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Hold On To The Best Times" by "Tom Shotton" Bit of a Steely Dan feel, no?
	1:02pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "This Is The Day" by "Ivy" Don't know Ivy's music, that was another project of Adam Schlesinger (from Fountains of Wayne, RIP)
	1:03pm Gerry from Miami: Greetings to you, Bob and Pete! Are Ivy and the Ivy League the same band? Your album jacket photo shows the Ivy League, but the playlist shows Ivy. Just asking.
	1:03pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Hold On To The Best Times" by "Tom Shotton" Maybe a bit NRBQ as well (wonder why Bob would dig this...???)
	1:06pm StringOFperils: One of the times I saw Pere Ubu as at Danceteria (pretty sure) where doctorjazz saw them, maybe the same show? Jim Jones on guitar that time.
	1:07pm StringOFperils: ...with Brian Woodbury warming up...
	1:08pm doctorjazz: ↳ StringOFperils @1:06 It wasn't Pere Ubu that I saw, was David Thomas (with the Pedestrians, I believe). It was Danceteria.
	1:09pm Jeff: Eddie Hinton had more soul than Soul Train!
	1:09pm spodiodi: greetings, Bob and Pete! and all
	1:10pm StringOFperils: ↳ doctorjazz @1:08 That's what happens when you see David Thomas too many times; you can't read anymore.
	1:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ StringOFperils @1:10 I believe he IS capable of reordering your neurons!😀
	1:15pm Listener Robert: Wow, without my help this year, you've raised $80k just since 6 this morning. At this hand-over-fist rate, they could hit the goal before Hoof & Mouth again -- and that's $100k more than last year!! It's the best charity of all: our own amusement,
	🥁 1:19pm (Mr) Bill: What a coincidence! A couple of days ago, I asked my wife what a “lou” is.
	1:21pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ spodiodi @1:09 mahalo spodi!
	1:21pm Peter Tomlinson: Some incredible comments today, everyone! You restore my flagging faith in the people’s forward motion…
	1:21pm Doug Schulkind: Wee Dot is a sweet J.J. Johnson original. Was such a shock when he took his own life.
	1:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Wee Dot" by "Bebop Blues" This reminded me of a reissue coming out at the ene of the month, that I'm salivating over a bit...craftrecordings.com...
	1:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @1:22 (and, I likely have most of what's on this set, but still...)
	1:24pm spodiodi: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @1:21 hi Andrew!
	1:25pm doctorjazz: Pledge! Ribit! Ribit! Pledge!
	1:27pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @1:25 Thanks for the link.
	1:28pm StringOFperils: Dan Blocker. Boss Hoss before The Sonics
	1:35pm Franco Twinkie: I want that!
	1:36pm Gerry from Miami: Speaking of Pere Ubu, I had the pleasure of seeing them as part of a 2-night extravaganza at the Santa Monica Civic in conjunction with the release of the "new wave" film, "Urrgh, a Music War." Other bands who took part included Magazine, X, Dead Boys, and Devo, among others.
	1:37pm sydnius: ↳ Gerry from Miami @1:36 I saw Pere Ubu opening for TMBG. killed it.
	1:38pm doctorjazz: ↳ sydnius @1:37 That's another killer double bill! (TMBG are on a world tour right now, tix all sold out in NY area)
	1:39pm doctorjazz: ↳ Gerry from Miami @1:36 And that sounds amazing!
	1:40pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @1:22 This is why I may never retire, LOL!
	1:41pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Gerry from Miami @1:36 I went to the first night - X, Cramps, Dead Kennedys and Chrome. Strangely, I didn't have a very good time. It was the summer of 1980 and was tired of going to punk shows. I had been doing it since 1976 and was a little crispy around the edges.
	🥁 1:44pm (Mr) Bill: Bob and Pete make Bobby Vinton safe for music cognoscenti. Ceaseless wonders!
	1:45pm Gerry from Miami: @FRANCO TWINKIE. I just remembered that Wall of Voodoo played on the second night as well.
	1:46pm StringOFperils: AM rotation of Bobby Vinton's Blue Velvet cursed my childhood
	1:47pm doctorjazz: ↳ (Mr) Bill @1:44 👍
	1:48pm Andrew in Toronto: That was a delightful show! Thanks Bob and Pete!
	1:48pm Gerry from Miami: They made us learn to slow dance to that Bobby Vinton scmaltz in 7th and 8th grade gym class!!
	1:51pm doctorjazz: Time for some JELLY ROLL!
	🥁 1:51pm (Mr) Bill: Thank G-d I don’t have to describe this show to anyone. “Delightfully eclectic” doesn’t come close.
	🥁 1:52pm (Mr) Bill: No Jelly Roll Morton, no Randy Newman.
	1:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ Gerry from Miami @1:48 Woulda been interesting if they tried that in my 7th/8th grade class, all boys parochial school...)
	1:52pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Gerry from Miami @1:45 Earlier that summer, I had seen Wall of Voodoo at Beyond Baroque in Venice. A very sinister vibe was casting it's spell that night. Wall of Voodoo stopped playing and the audience went nuts. Joe Nanini, the drummer stood in front of the crowd and baited the audience. "Motherfuckers meet me out side and I'll kick your ass!" Ah, those were the days.
	1:53pm Dean: Saw Kommunity FK at Beyond Baroque. And Richard Meltzer.
	🥁 1:54pm listener 126464: Been listening, thanks Bob & Pete! Hey, radio pals!
	1:55pm spodiodi: thank you, Bob and Pete! great show
	1:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @1:53 Beyond Baroque had great shows!
	1:55pm Gerry from Miami: @doctorjazz. For sure! LOL!
	1:55pm Dean: A great venue, indeed. And it's mostly about poetry!
	🥁 1:56pm chresti: Thanks Bob and Pete!
	1:56pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @1:55 Chresti and I met Richard Hell there.
	1:56pm Doug Schulkind: Your are the straw that stirs the Drummer drink, Mr. Brainen!
	🥁 1:56pm wmfromD: Another great one. Thanks Bob and Pete.
	1:56pm Dean: Nice! Was his band in town?
	1:57pm doctorjazz: Almost quittin' time, great show, thanks Bob and Pete! Laters all!
	1:57pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @1:56 No, he was reading from his new book, Hot and Cold.
	1:58pm Dean: Hallelujah! Thank you!
	1:59pm doctorjazz: NO FROGS!!!!! THE EARTH IS ENDING!!!
	1:59pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Bob and Pete!
	🥁 1:59pm (Mr) Bill: With immense appreciation until Saturday morning comes again……
	1:59pm StringOFperils: Thanks! Great show (no surprise there)
	🥁 1:59pm Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Bob, Pete, Volunteers, and pledgers!!
