	🎸 3:05pm tadpoles: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:03 Looking forward to it Todd...."My White Bicycle" was a great start. Cheers
	3:05pm JReganK: ↳ Blissland @3:05 Hey, Buffalo Bob!
	3:06pm Blissland: ↳ JReganK @3:05 is that a cannibal metaphor?
	3:06pm JReganK: ↳ Song: "Venus In Furs" by "The Velvet Underground" Ha! @Bliss, You know what I'm thinking?
	3:06pm Pauly from Clifton: Hey Boss G, folks!
	3:07pm JReganK: ↳ Blissland @3:06 A Howdy Doody reference. You're thinking of Buffalo Bill

	🎸 3:08pm Karl: I hope Joe McGasko is present for this!
	3:08pm Blissland: ↳ JReganK @3:06 I don't know and I can't even guess. That's how sharp I am right now
	3:09pm common: todd! all!
	3:10pm JReganK: ↳ Blissland @3:08 Don't drive or operate heavy machinery until you get some sleep
	3:10pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ prof.fuzz @3:00 Great use of old skool type with emojis for your creative greeting...
	3:10pm Blissland: ↳ JReganK @3:10 is a personal computer considered heavy machinery?
	🎸 3:11pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:10 thank you, Sir!
	3:11pm JReganK: ↳ Blissland @3:10 It could be perverted to evil purposes
	🎸 3:12pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Blissland @3:10 it's not heavy, it's my laptop!
	3:12pm clarke: 'allo all! pau pau pau.
	3:13pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Chili MacPagoda @3:04 Heh Chili...hope life has been treating you a bit kinder in the last little while. You've had a tough spring/early summer.
	3:14pm JReganK: ↳ Song: "A Whiter Shade Of Pale" by "Robyn Hitchcock" Nice!
	3:15pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ prof.fuzz @3:11 Ms will do...;-) Not all us listeners are "dudes"...
	3:16pm clarke: they just showed dylan's performance at Newport 64 on TCM - in. sane.
	3:16pm clarke: ↳ clarke @3:16 bloomfield. unreal.
	🎸 3:17pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:15 ooops! my bad. i think i subconsciously read "Rip" in front of your screen name. (\_/) ( 👁️) />🌮> please accept this taco as a gift of apology!
	3:18pm clarke: i know a gal named Rip.
	3:18pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Dandelion" by "The Rolling Stones" #1 all-time!
	🎸 3:20pm John L: I planned on going to one of the nearby Robyn book appearances, but family obligations prevail. But I recommend the book and seeing Robyn any time he comes around.
	🎸 3:20pm Benoni: Is this a playlist of songs that influenced Robyn Hitchcock?
	🎸 3:20pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:13 Hey there Mr. Van Winkle! The last week felt like an entire month, it was rough. Helping my aging parents through a difficult period. But today is beautiful and I’m hiking through Western Pennsylvania while listening to Thee Stones play on TOPT. No complaints on this spectacular Saturday - hope yr doing well!
	3:20pm clarke: ↳ John L @3:20 ah, you finished the book?
	3:22pm Victrola Tom: Happy Birthday Ms Ginger! 🫚
	3:22pm Victrola Tom: And hello to all fellow lovers of great music!
	3:23pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Armenia City In The Sky" by "The Who" is John Keane the sole writer of this?
	3:24pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ prof.fuzz @3:17 No apologies necessary. Although...for the most part...serious music heads do traditionally skew male...but there's always been plucky types like me or Ms Christina Ginger et al who have made music our main special interest.
	3:25pm clarke: no sex none at all.
	🎸 3:25pm tadpoles: ↳ Song: "I Can Hear The Grass Grow" by "The Move" This certainly influenced The Fall!
	🎸 3:26pm 80sZuulScully: Todd, I may be stating the obvious, but killer set so far.
	🎸 3:26pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Song: "I Can Hear The Grass Grow" by "The Move" Seeing Thee Move & Thee Who on a double bill, 1967 has to be a top five concert time travel destination
	3:26pm clarke: get ahold of yourself now, baby.
	3:26pm Scott from Boston: I can hear the grass grow, gets better every time I hear it
	3:29pm Deano de los Muertos: Heya Todd…about to throw on your premium t-shirt for the first time. Thanks brotha
	3:29pm johnk77: the who, james taylor, the james gang
	3:30pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Chili MacPagoda @3:26 Agree...that would have been a killer bill. 6 year old moi got to see Wayne Newton at the Expo 67 World's Fair in Montreal instead. My first "real concert".
	🎸 3:30pm John L: ↳ clarke @3:20 Yes. It's a fun, breezy read, but with great detail that puts you in a time and place. I didn't plan on it, but afterward I started reading the new Francine Prose memoir entitled 1974. I'm amazed at the detail and recall that some people have ; I can barely remember last week, let alone my teens and twenties. I suppose that's why Hitchcock and Prose are artists; an ability to observe, recall and share these observations.
	3:31pm Christina Ginger: Thanks for the Who dedication!
	3:31pm JReganK: ↳ Song: "A Day In The Life" by "Robyn Hitchcock" Ha! I like the differences in British accents.
	3:32pm Ignore Function: Robyn covering The Fall's "A Day in the Life"? JK!
	3:32pm clarke: ↳ John L @3:30 yes, memory is hazy, but you'd be surprised when you start writing about it - remembering more.
	3:32pm clarke: ↳ Christina Ginger @3:31 HAPPY BDAY!!!!
	3:33pm egould: Time for brunch. Thanks for the music Todd.
	3:33pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Christina Ginger @3:31 Happy Birthday!
	🎸 3:33pm 80sZuulScully: Enjoy that promo.
	3:34pm clarke: turn me on, dead man.
	3:34pm Deano de los Muertos: MOMMA!
	🎸 3:35pm StuartR: ↳ Song: "A Day In The Life" by "Robyn Hitchcock" Sounds retro, yet fresh. FYI: Robyn will be in Montclair on 10.26
	3:35pm clarke: i'm more partial to Fairfeild Parlour
	3:36pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @3:33 Thanks!
	3:36pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Gold Star live on WFMU! Engineered by Scott K!" YES!!! sounding great!!

	3:37pm Christina Ginger: Thanks, Clarke!
	3:38pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Christina Ginger @3:36 My 40th is next week, trying my best to avoid it!
	3:38pm clarke: ↳ Christina Ginger @3:37 hope you have a GREAT one!
	3:39pm persimmon: Best sounding live performance on wfmu I've heard in years!
	3:39pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Song: "Gold Star live on WFMU! Engineered by Scott K!" It is sounding great...thanks Scott K...and of course Gold Star... Popping in my earbuds and meandering off to the local farmers market...to the perfect sonic accompaniment. Thanks TOPT!!!
	3:40pm clarke: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:39 you often refer to farmer's mkt - is that the one in hollywood??
	🎸 3:42pm Hoboken Jack: Hello from a rockin' backyard in Laurence Harbor, NJ!

	3:43pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @3:42 is it like a random backyard? or were you invited there?
	3:46pm clarke: wow! this set is wonderful.
	3:46pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @3:38 Eh, it’s no biggie. I am 41 today. I feel pretty damn good.
	3:48pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ clarke @3:40 Nope...West End of Vancouver. Mike Hill/Nelson Park. It's a really nice one.
	3:48pm Van Winkle ;-): Sorry ...Mole Hill... Typochaun interference... ;-)
	3:48pm clarke: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:48 ah, sorry!! confused (again).

	3:49pm clarke: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:48 enjoy -- mole hill!
	3:50pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ clarke @3:48 TOPT has a global & glowball...listenership.
	3:50pm clarke: he doth!
	3:52pm Fredericks: ↳ persimmon @3:39 How far back in time would you have to go to find its equivalent?

	4:39pm clarke: ↳ Victrola Tom @4:39 it could be rhode island.
	4:39pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ bob @4:22 Problem solved!
	🎸 4:39pm efd: ↳ Victrola Tom @4:38 www.instagram.com...
	🎸 4:40pm efd: ↳ efd @4:39 (I think you can see that even if you don't have an instagram acct but I'm not sure)
	4:40pm Various Julius: ↳ efd @4:39 That was quick
	4:40pm clarke: ↳ efd @4:39 howdy!

	4:43pm clarke: ↳ tadpoles @4:42 nope!
	🎸 4:44pm tadpoles: ↳ clarke @4:43 Still wonderful....and soooo great!
	4:44pm clarke: ↳ Matt_E @4:43 that film is hilarious - but, uh, not meant to be.

	4:47pm Billybob: ↳ efd @4:40 Yes, it's visible w/o an account. And it's funny (a la Steve Buscemi and John Waters).

	4:50pm Victrola Tom: & efd thanks for what i assume will be photographic evidence! I can’t open it currently, bad WiFi!
	4:50pm Victrola Tom: @ TOPT you’re living your best life!
	🎸 4:50pm 80sZuulScully: Hey, this Robyn Hitchcock guy has pretty good taste!
	4:54pm clarke: King Lear

	4:58pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:57 probably in '67
	4:58pm AppleOverEasy: Man I "LOVE" the Moody Blues
	4:58pm clarke: ↳ DonJuanTijuana @4:57 dude - HB!!
	4:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Critical OhPinYun has spotlighted 1966 for some time ...it's worth recalling the Full Flowering of Forms in 1967. Too. Yeah...
	🎸 4:59pm DonJuanTijuana: ↳ clarke @4:58 Thx Man!
	4:59pm onthetrain: ¡feliz cumpleaños! Don Juan!
	5:00pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Live And Let Live" by "Love" Some of the only electric guitar on this album.
	5:00pm bigplanetnoise: Great sounds, Todd!
	5:00pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:59 very prescient: i was just saying my fave year is '66 - but, now??
	5:00pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ bigplanetnoise @5:00 Thanks Bob!
	🎸 5:01pm DonJuanTijuana: Thx TOPT!
	5:01pm common: ↳ Song: "Itchycoo Park" by "Robyn Hitchcock" nice cover!
	5:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ DonJuanTijuana @4:57 Joyeux ♌︎Leonine ⦿Solar Return DonJuan Tijuana ! www.facebook.com...
	5:02pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Itchycoo Park" by "Robyn Hitchcock" Speaking of no electric guitars.
	5:03pm Greg k: Great Set list!
	🎸 5:03pm tadpoles: I have a feeling this RH record is a must buy!
	🎸 5:04pm John L: ↳ clarke @5:00 I was just looking at all the albums that came out in 1967 and it MIGHT have 1966 beat. Robyn could have made a triple lp of great 67 covers and not repeat an artist.
	5:05pm clarke: ↳ John L @5:04 yeah, but what sways me the most is Revolver vs. Pepper
	5:06pm Various Julius: I love listening to Robyn talk
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @5:05 I was recently musing on how the trend these days is to consider Pepper a one-off. But I was thinking of how Pepper is almost a commentary on the precedent of Revolver - both as Songs & as an Album...
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Various Julius @5:06 Always.
	5:08pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:07 i should say that when i was a kid Pepper was EVERYthing to me!
	5:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @5:08 Uh-huh. It's immersive.
	5:09pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:09 my musings, now, are more retrospective.
	5:10pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Todd and Robyn turn back the clock" fab!!!
	5:10pm morphe': ↳ Song: "Itchycoo Park" by "Robyn Hitchcock" Tom Hanks...Dick Cheny .. Lucille Ball..what a trilogy to pop up instantaneously!!!
	5:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Did you know LucilleBall green-lighted StarTrek @ the company ? ...1966...
	5:14pm Various Julius: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:13 First-ballot for that alone
	5:15pm Elena: There are feeds of oblique strategies on mastodon and probably also twitter
	5:20pm clarke: aha! true!
	5:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Actually a bit inbetween peak Summer of Love & the political Assassinations & such of 1968 I like to call the Winter of Love...
	5:22pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:21 speaking of - did you ever check out that series i sent you?
	5:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @5:22 It takes a lot to get me watching something for too long...
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...DisraeliGears 1967 tho :D ..Cream had great Songs for a bit ...they didn't last long in fact...
	5:24pm clarke: this is my moment to testify that Robyn Hitchcock is truly one of my favorite artists. thank you Robyn and thank you Todd.
	5:25pm morphe': ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:21 Somebody od significance said :"the 60s died/ended when the Carpenters played the White House.." 1970???
	5:27pm Frank Zaatar: Butterfield/Bloomfield's East West came out in 1966. I'll take those jams over Cream any day.
	5:27pm clarke: ↳ Frank Zaatar @5:27 but, i'll take his stuff with dylan over THAT!
	5:29pm clarke: ↳ clarke @5:27 meaning mike
	5:30pm clarke: the age of 14 in america is most probably the freshman year of high school - which is a very fickled year
	5:32pm Various Julius: ↳ Song: "Todd and Robyn turn back the clock" He can riff like nobody else
	5:32pm burpage: my father told me, Listen to your elders because what they forget you might not get too
	🎸 5:33pm John L: ↳ clarke @5:24 I love some of his recent stuff as much as some of his older LPs and he is always a treat live.Glad he played NYC with a full band last year. he's always great solo, but he is an underrated electric player. I hadn't seen him play electric since 1988.
	5:34pm mr_donutsu: Britain is almost exactly the same size as Oregon.
	5:34pm clarke: ↳ John L @5:33 i haven't seen him since The Egyptians!! ha ha
	5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Robyn is a Genius of our Time far as I'm concerned. Just his inbetween song banter Live is worth a ticket.
	5:35pm clarke: that was GREAT!! cool!!
	5:36pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ clarke @5:29 Sure, but apples and oranges.
	5:36pm mawVT: Such a great interview Todd
	5:36pm Victrola Tom: Classic RH here, love it!
	5:36pm morphe': As a vagabond from 1986 => not following any thing .. .. BBC radio and A'dam Pirates ..always thought Roby Hitchcock was a woman from Ohio .. Joan Jettish..
	5:36pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks folks!
	5:37pm clarke: you Skenes'd it!
	5:37pm Ignore Function: Listening to Robyn ad lib when he performs is reason enough to go see him, let alone the songs.
	🎸 5:38pm John L: ↳ clarke @5:34 I just looked up the 1988 show I saw him at and the opening act was The Feelies! I knew I saw them open for a couple of different people in the 80's, but I could not remember who. Thank you internet!!!
	5:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ignore Function @5:37 & a Visual Artist too. The complete Surrealist.
	5:38pm Greg from ZONE 5: On a beer run at Alan 6’s backyard party- tuned in just in time!
	5:38pm Robini: Just tuned in towards the end. Can someone post deets on where/when he's laying next week
	5:38pm San Pedro Girl: @TOPT A great show and an excellent interview. Thanks!
	5:39pm clarke: ↳ John L @5:38 one of them REM, maybe? (for me, yes)
	5:39pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Needles In The Camel's Eye" by "Eno" Whatta segue, smooth, Todd, smoooth.
	5:39pm morphe': ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @5:36 NO NO NO ... Thank YOU !!! & Robyn Hitchcock !!!!!
	5:40pm Matt from OK: Great interviews, great show!
	🎸 5:41pm John L: ↳ clarke @5:39 Lou Reed. Never got to see REM, dammit!
	🎸 5:44pm herb.nyc: Niiiice interview, thx for doing, Todd. Robyn is a slow and sure spkr, and doesn’t ramble. Let me try and catch the Hoboken event, or rough trade
	🎸 5:44pm tadpoles: Many thanks for a wonderful radio afternoon Todd. Very special once again. Cheers
	5:44pm Zinn The Mood: Caught the last little bit. Excellent! Wouldn’t say I’ve been an avid fan. But definitely liked him fine. Was just into other heavier music then. Really really enjoyed his recollections, and advocacy for late 60’s music. Think I’m gonna have to check out the book! Seem to remember in my early days in the music industry in the late 80’s/early 90’s being invited to a loft that was apparently his home, to listen to him play his new stuff live. Very cool night. Cool and open guy. “The world’s oldest child,” as he said he’d been referred to.
	5:45pm clarke: ↳ John L @5:41 too bad you didn't see their early tours! not much of a loss, later, tho.
	5:45pm Victrola Tom: These guys would be great if they could just harmonize a little! 😂
	5:46pm JohnEBGood: Thank you Todd and Robyn. Groovy show ; )

	3:06pm Pauly from Clifton: Hey Boss G, folks!

	3:10pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ prof.fuzz @3:00 Great use of old skool type with emojis for your creative greeting...
	3:10pm Blissland: ↳ JReganK @3:10 is a personal computer considered heavy machinery?
	🎸 3:11pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:10 thank you, Sir!
	3:11pm JReganK: ↳ Blissland @3:10 It could be perverted to evil purposes
	🎸 3:12pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Blissland @3:10 it's not heavy, it's my laptop!
	3:12pm clarke: 'allo all! pau pau pau.
	3:13pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Chili MacPagoda @3:04 Heh Chili...hope life has been treating you a bit kinder in the last little while. You've had a tough spring/early summer.
	3:14pm JReganK: ↳ Song: "A Whiter Shade Of Pale" by "Robyn Hitchcock" Nice!
	3:15pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ prof.fuzz @3:11 Ms will do...;-) Not all us listeners are "dudes"...
	3:16pm clarke: they just showed dylan's performance at Newport 64 on TCM - in. sane.
	3:16pm clarke: ↳ clarke @3:16 bloomfield. unreal.
	🎸 3:17pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:15 ooops! my bad. i think i subconsciously read "Rip" in front of your screen name. (\_/) ( 👁️) />🌮> please accept this taco as a gift of apology!
	3:18pm clarke: i know a gal named Rip.
	3:18pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Dandelion" by "The Rolling Stones" #1 all-time!
	🎸 3:20pm John L: I planned on going to one of the nearby Robyn book appearances, but family obligations prevail. But I recommend the book and seeing Robyn any time he comes around.
	🎸 3:20pm Benoni: Is this a playlist of songs that influenced Robyn Hitchcock?
	🎸 3:20pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:13 Hey there Mr. Van Winkle! The last week felt like an entire month, it was rough. Helping my aging parents through a difficult period. But today is beautiful and I’m hiking through Western Pennsylvania while listening to Thee Stones play on TOPT. No complaints on this spectacular Saturday - hope yr doing well!
	3:20pm clarke: ↳ John L @3:20 ah, you finished the book?
	3:22pm Victrola Tom: Happy Birthday Ms Ginger! 🫚
	3:22pm Victrola Tom: And hello to all fellow lovers of great music!
	3:23pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Armenia City In The Sky" by "The Who" is John Keane the sole writer of this?
	3:24pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ prof.fuzz @3:17 No apologies necessary. Although...for the most part...serious music heads do traditionally skew male...but there's always been plucky types like me or Ms Christina Ginger et al who have made music our main special interest.
	3:25pm clarke: no sex none at all.
	🎸 3:25pm tadpoles: ↳ Song: "I Can Hear The Grass Grow" by "The Move" This certainly influenced The Fall!
	🎸 3:26pm 80sZuulScully: Todd, I may be stating the obvious, but killer set so far.
	🎸 3:26pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Song: "I Can Hear The Grass Grow" by "The Move" Seeing Thee Move & Thee Who on a double bill, 1967 has to be a top five concert time travel destination
	3:26pm clarke: get ahold of yourself now, baby.
	3:26pm Scott from Boston: I can hear the grass grow, gets better every time I hear it
	3:29pm Deano de los Muertos: Heya Todd…about to throw on your premium t-shirt for the first time. Thanks brotha
	3:29pm johnk77: the who, james taylor, the james gang
	3:30pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Chili MacPagoda @3:26 Agree...that would have been a killer bill. 6 year old moi got to see Wayne Newton at the Expo 67 World's Fair in Montreal instead. My first "real concert".
	🎸 3:30pm John L: ↳ clarke @3:20 Yes. It's a fun, breezy read, but with great detail that puts you in a time and place. I didn't plan on it, but afterward I started reading the new Francine Prose memoir entitled 1974. I'm amazed at the detail and recall that some people have ; I can barely remember last week, let alone my teens and twenties. I suppose that's why Hitchcock and Prose are artists; an ability to observe, recall and share these observations.
	3:31pm Christina Ginger: Thanks for the Who dedication!
	3:31pm JReganK: ↳ Song: "A Day In The Life" by "Robyn Hitchcock" Ha! I like the differences in British accents.
	3:32pm Ignore Function: Robyn covering The Fall's "A Day in the Life"? JK!
	3:32pm clarke: ↳ John L @3:30 yes, memory is hazy, but you'd be surprised when you start writing about it - remembering more.
	3:32pm clarke: ↳ Christina Ginger @3:31 HAPPY BDAY!!!!
	3:33pm egould: Time for brunch. Thanks for the music Todd.
	3:33pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Christina Ginger @3:31 Happy Birthday!
	🎸 3:33pm 80sZuulScully: Enjoy that promo.
	3:34pm clarke: turn me on, dead man.
	3:34pm Deano de los Muertos: MOMMA!
	🎸 3:35pm StuartR: ↳ Song: "A Day In The Life" by "Robyn Hitchcock" Sounds retro, yet fresh. FYI: Robyn will be in Montclair on 10.26
	3:35pm clarke: i'm more partial to Fairfeild Parlour
	3:36pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @3:33 Thanks!
	3:36pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Gold Star live on WFMU! Engineered by Scott K!" YES!!! sounding great!!

	3:39pm persimmon: Best sounding live performance on wfmu I've heard in years!
	3:39pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ Song: "Gold Star live on WFMU! Engineered by Scott K!" It is sounding great...thanks Scott K...and of course Gold Star... Popping in my earbuds and meandering off to the local farmers market...to the perfect sonic accompaniment. Thanks TOPT!!!
	3:40pm clarke: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:39 you often refer to farmer's mkt - is that the one in hollywood??
	🎸 3:42pm Hoboken Jack: Hello from a rockin' backyard in Laurence Harbor, NJ!

	3:43pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @3:42 is it like a random backyard? or were you invited there?

	3:46pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @3:38 Eh, it’s no biggie. I am 41 today. I feel pretty damn good.
	3:48pm Van Winkle ;-): ↳ clarke @3:40 Nope...West End of Vancouver. Mike Hill/Nelson Park. It's a really nice one.
	3:48pm Van Winkle ;-): Sorry ...Mole Hill... Typochaun interference... ;-)
	3:48pm clarke: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:48 ah, sorry!! confused (again).
	3:49pm Fredericks: Hello my fellow Toddlers! Gold Star is quite all right.
	3:49pm clarke: ↳ Van Winkle ;-) @3:48 enjoy -- mole hill!

	4:47pm David Watts: My boys! 1967 forever!
	4:47pm clarke: ↳ Matt_E @4:46 as long as the admission is FREE!
	4:49pm morphe': Simon of 13 of Madrid has been singing along to this whole set [not the PF]... hope for the future !!!
	🎸 4:49pm Bklyn_Dutch: ↳ Song: "Waterloo Sunset" by "The Kinks" I haven't heard these in a while. All my faves from when I originally starting buying records back in the 70s. Awesome!
	4:49pm JohnEBGood: Wow.. James Bond sound. Yes 1967 . Cool 😎
	4:50pm Victrola Tom: & efd thanks for what i assume will be photographic evidence! I can’t open it currently, bad WiFi!
	4:50pm Victrola Tom: @ TOPT you’re living your best life!
	🎸 4:50pm 80sZuulScully: Hey, this Robyn Hitchcock guy has pretty good taste!

	4:58pm AppleOverEasy: Man I "LOVE" the Moody Blues
	4:58pm clarke: ↳ DonJuanTijuana @4:57 dude - HB!!
	4:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Critical OhPinYun has spotlighted 1966 for some time ...it's worth recalling the Full Flowering of Forms in 1967. Too. Yeah...
	🎸 4:59pm DonJuanTijuana: ↳ clarke @4:58 Thx Man!
	4:59pm onthetrain: ¡feliz cumpleaños! Don Juan!

	5:03pm Greg k: Great Set list!
	🎸 5:03pm tadpoles: I have a feeling this RH record is a must buy!
	🎸 5:04pm John L: ↳ clarke @5:00 I was just looking at all the albums that came out in 1967 and it MIGHT have 1966 beat. Robyn could have made a triple lp of great 67 covers and not repeat an artist.
	5:05pm clarke: ↳ John L @5:04 yeah, but what sways me the most is Revolver vs. Pepper
	5:06pm Various Julius: I love listening to Robyn talk
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @5:05 I was recently musing on how the trend these days is to consider Pepper a one-off. But I was thinking of how Pepper is almost a commentary on the precedent of Revolver - both as Songs & as an Album...
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Various Julius @5:06 Always.
	5:08pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:07 i should say that when i was a kid Pepper was EVERYthing to me!
	5:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @5:08 Uh-huh. It's immersive.
	5:09pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:09 my musings, now, are more retrospective.
	5:10pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Todd and Robyn turn back the clock" fab!!!
	5:10pm morphe': ↳ Song: "Itchycoo Park" by "Robyn Hitchcock" Tom Hanks...Dick Cheny .. Lucille Ball..what a trilogy to pop up instantaneously!!!
	5:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Did you know LucilleBall green-lighted StarTrek @ the company ? ...1966...
	5:14pm Various Julius: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:13 First-ballot for that alone
	5:15pm Elena: There are feeds of oblique strategies on mastodon and probably also twitter
	5:20pm clarke: aha! true!
	5:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Actually a bit inbetween peak Summer of Love & the political Assassinations & such of 1968 I like to call the Winter of Love...
	5:22pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:21 speaking of - did you ever check out that series i sent you?
	5:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @5:22 It takes a lot to get me watching something for too long...
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...DisraeliGears 1967 tho :D ..Cream had great Songs for a bit ...they didn't last long in fact...
	5:24pm clarke: this is my moment to testify that Robyn Hitchcock is truly one of my favorite artists. thank you Robyn and thank you Todd.
	5:25pm morphe': ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:21 Somebody od significance said :"the 60s died/ended when the Carpenters played the White House.." 1970???
	5:27pm Frank Zaatar: Butterfield/Bloomfield's East West came out in 1966. I'll take those jams over Cream any day.
	5:27pm clarke: ↳ Frank Zaatar @5:27 but, i'll take his stuff with dylan over THAT!
	5:29pm clarke: ↳ clarke @5:27 meaning mike
	5:30pm clarke: the age of 14 in america is most probably the freshman year of high school - which is a very fickled year
	5:32pm Various Julius: ↳ Song: "Todd and Robyn turn back the clock" He can riff like nobody else
	5:32pm burpage: my father told me, Listen to your elders because what they forget you might not get too
	🎸 5:33pm John L: ↳ clarke @5:24 I love some of his recent stuff as much as some of his older LPs and he is always a treat live.Glad he played NYC with a full band last year. he's always great solo, but he is an underrated electric player. I hadn't seen him play electric since 1988.
	5:34pm mr_donutsu: Britain is almost exactly the same size as Oregon.
	5:34pm clarke: ↳ John L @5:33 i haven't seen him since The Egyptians!! ha ha
	5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Robyn is a Genius of our Time far as I'm concerned. Just his inbetween song banter Live is worth a ticket.
	5:35pm clarke: that was GREAT!! cool!!
	5:36pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ clarke @5:29 Sure, but apples and oranges.
	5:36pm mawVT: Such a great interview Todd
	5:36pm Victrola Tom: Classic RH here, love it!
	5:36pm morphe': As a vagabond from 1986 => not following any thing .. .. BBC radio and A'dam Pirates ..always thought Roby Hitchcock was a woman from Ohio .. Joan Jettish..
	5:36pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks folks!
	5:37pm clarke: you Skenes'd it!
	5:37pm Ignore Function: Listening to Robyn ad lib when he performs is reason enough to go see him, let alone the songs.
	🎸 5:38pm John L: ↳ clarke @5:34 I just looked up the 1988 show I saw him at and the opening act was The Feelies! I knew I saw them open for a couple of different people in the 80's, but I could not remember who. Thank you internet!!!
	5:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ignore Function @5:37 & a Visual Artist too. The complete Surrealist.
	5:38pm Greg from ZONE 5: On a beer run at Alan 6’s backyard party- tuned in just in time!
	5:38pm Robini: Just tuned in towards the end. Can someone post deets on where/when he's laying next week
	5:38pm San Pedro Girl: @TOPT A great show and an excellent interview. Thanks!
	5:39pm clarke: ↳ John L @5:38 one of them REM, maybe? (for me, yes)
	5:39pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Needles In The Camel's Eye" by "Eno" Whatta segue, smooth, Todd, smoooth.
	5:39pm morphe': ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @5:36 NO NO NO ... Thank YOU !!! & Robyn Hitchcock !!!!!
	5:40pm Matt from OK: Great interviews, great show!
	🎸 5:41pm John L: ↳ clarke @5:39 Lou Reed. Never got to see REM, dammit!
	🎸 5:44pm herb.nyc: Niiiice interview, thx for doing, Todd. Robyn is a slow and sure spkr, and doesn’t ramble. Let me try and catch the Hoboken event, or rough trade
	🎸 5:44pm tadpoles: Many thanks for a wonderful radio afternoon Todd. Very special once again. Cheers
	5:44pm Zinn The Mood: Caught the last little bit. Excellent! Wouldn’t say I’ve been an avid fan. But definitely liked him fine. Was just into other heavier music then. Really really enjoyed his recollections, and advocacy for late 60’s music. Think I’m gonna have to check out the book! Seem to remember in my early days in the music industry in the late 80’s/early 90’s being invited to a loft that was apparently his home, to listen to him play his new stuff live. Very cool night. Cool and open guy. “The world’s oldest child,” as he said he’d been referred to.
	5:45pm clarke: ↳ John L @5:41 too bad you didn't see their early tours! not much of a loss, later, tho.
	5:45pm Victrola Tom: These guys would be great if they could just harmonize a little! 😂
	5:46pm JohnEBGood: Thank you Todd and Robyn. Groovy show ; )
	5:46pm Victrola Tom: Same goes for these guys!
	5:46pm pBlee: Wonderful interview.

	5:48pm radioronan: Action packed show..Thanks Todd! Cheers y'all!
	5:48pm clarke: oof on rod argent - sorry to hear!
	🎸 5:49pm Bklyn_Dutch: ↳ clarke @5:39 Yes! I saw REM at the Felt Forum in Nov.'86 and The Feelies opened.
	5:50pm Artanker: is that why the Zombies cancelled shows earlier this year? or did the stroke just happen?
	5:51pm clarke: i don't mind later REM, but gosh as soon as the Rickenbacker got "retired"...
	5:52pm morphe': ↳ Bklyn_Dutch @5:49 Never saw REM and knew little about them but my students = 17-21 in the So Bx 1990s used to say = "Yo mista.. you look like that gay guy in the movie Philidelphia and that guy in REM?????
	5:52pm clarke: Todd - you have played some of my favorite all-time songs, today, this is one of them! winner!
	🎸 5:52pm John L: ↳ clarke @5:45 In 1983 they played right across the river, in Poughkeepsie, but I was in college and too focused on drinking, drugs and other things. What a mook.
	5:52pm Kevin the Painter: My favorite 13th Floor cut!
	5:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Slip Inside This House" by "The Thirteenth Floor ... Perhaps the most authentic Lysergic Evangelists of RawkBands.
	🎸 5:53pm Ciggy: Todays Program is a Pure Hitchcock MacGuffin I'm honored to award you with a Ciggy Meritorious Medal of Honor. Thanks Todd
	5:53pm clarke: ↳ John L @5:52 ha ha ha. you grew out of it!

	5:55pm clarke: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @5:54 and hey! and bye!
	5:55pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ Ciggy @5:53 Wow! That's as good as it gets!
	🎸 5:56pm John L: ↳ clarke @5:53 Almost to a fault. I have too many shows coming up in the next 4 months and may add motre.Luckily many are local-ish.Next up is GBV in Woodstock, just 30 miles from me.
	5:56pm Kevin the Painter: @Chili MacPagoda 100%
	5:56pm clarke: ↳ John L @5:56 hey, at least there ARE shows (as i have said). you should consider writing a book, yourself, there!
	🎸 5:57pm Bklyn_Dutch: ↳ clarke @5:51 The IRS years were the best. It's always the climb to wider appeal as bands evolve into something more popular that sticks with me.
	5:58pm tom tom the pipers son: roky was a prophet
	5:58pm Artanker: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @5:54 agreed! and hello from a fellow perfumed gardner!
	5:58pm Van Winkle ;-): Thank goodness for the archives! Only managed snippets of what sounded like a great conversation w/ Robin H. Thanks for another fine, fine, fine Sat afternoon show TOPT!!!

	6:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:59 i don't think that makes huim less a prophet
