	5:08pm Blissland: Greetings
	5:08pm rx "rexy" scabin: Heavens.
	5:08pm clarke: the wildest, most aggressive Hey Joe!
	5:08pm Sudbury Bob: ↳ Song: "Hey Joe Where You Gonna Go?" by "The Leaves" 'this really makes the case for the garage rock of the 60's as proto punk
	5:09pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: The best Hey Joe!
	5:13pm Creature Boy: ↳ Song: "Hey Joe Where You Gonna Go?" by "The Leaves" Fuck. It's hard to keep the 2 ( or is it 3?) single versions straight. This sounds gReat. I recently saw both versions for not too much money. I should've bought them both . That would've insured some disambiguation. They could've joined my existing stack of unsorted HEY Joe LEAVES45s &LPs but I wouldve come up w the missing version. This version
	5:13pm rx "rexy" scabin: Patti's Version.
	5:14pm northguineahills: ↳ Sweet Corn Lizzie @5:09 i might have to agree w/ sweet corn lizzie...
	5:14pm Sudbury Bob: the origin story
	5:15pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: ↳ Creature Boy @5:13 I noticed that this version lacked the guitar solo. Still great.
	5:16pm Creature Boy: The Kassenenetz & Katz Orchestra & Johnny Rivers' & quite possibly ALL versions of Hey Joe are good
	5:16pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Creature Boy @5:16 The Byrds did a version too.
	5:17pm Creature Boy: ↳ San Pedro Girl @5:16 Love does it. It's a WHOLE subject

	5:26pm rx "rexy" scabin: Bryce!
	5:26pm common: bryce and monica!
	5:26pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: A fellow turtle keeper! Is it named Gamera?
	5:27pm rx "rexy" scabin: Preach!

	5:45pm Steve Harsh: Lenny is the greatest, and Todd's not too shabby either
	5:47pm Drunken Creep: Used to play music with Lenny quite a bit here, and it's true, that's a man who authentically loves music to a level that lifts and inspires those blessed to collaborate with him.
	5:47pm Blissland: now it's possible to duck the vocal and leave the music, although it would be difficult on the fly
	5:47pm listener 126464: Great conversation, TOPT & Lenny Kaye.
	5:48pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "My Generation" by "The Patti Smith Group" WOW Volume up!

	5:57pm clarke: todd - pondering whether lenny knows his mum.
	5:57pm traven: ↳ Avspuk @5:55 I'd hate like hell for the FCC to take any kind of action against WFMU, that's all.
	5:57pm Sudbury Bob: Long live WFMU!
	5:57pm Woo: Great show Todd!

	5:08pm clarke: the wildest, most aggressive Hey Joe!
	5:08pm Sudbury Bob: ↳ Song: "Hey Joe Where You Gonna Go?" by "The Leaves" 'this really makes the case for the garage rock of the 60's as proto punk
	5:09pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: The best Hey Joe!
	5:13pm Creature Boy: ↳ Song: "Hey Joe Where You Gonna Go?" by "The Leaves" Fuck. It's hard to keep the 2 ( or is it 3?) single versions straight. This sounds gReat. I recently saw both versions for not too much money. I should've bought them both . That would've insured some disambiguation. They could've joined my existing stack of unsorted HEY Joe LEAVES45s &LPs but I wouldve come up w the missing version. This version
	5:13pm rx "rexy" scabin: Patti's Version.
	5:14pm northguineahills: ↳ Sweet Corn Lizzie @5:09 i might have to agree w/ sweet corn lizzie...

	5:47pm Drunken Creep: Used to play music with Lenny quite a bit here, and it's true, that's a man who authentically loves music to a level that lifts and inspires those blessed to collaborate with him.
	5:47pm Blissland: now it's possible to duck the vocal and leave the music, although it would be difficult on the fly
	5:47pm listener 126464: Great conversation, TOPT & Lenny Kaye.
	5:48pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "My Generation" by "The Patti Smith Group" WOW Volume up!
