WFMU: Bob Brainen: Playlist from July 5, 2025

Listener comments!
	10:55am Bob Brainen: WFMU’s website broke on July 3rd, and remains partially broken now. Please go to this address in order to reach WFMU’s live streams and playlist and chat pages: freeform.wfmu.org again, that new web address is freeform.wfmu.org Our pop-up archive player is working again, and archives also still work from our three mobile apps – “WFMU Radio” and the “WFMU Archive Bunker” in the Apple iTunes App Store, and the “Woof Moo Player” in the Google Play store. Sorry for this outage! Our IT team is working round the clock trying to get things back to what passes as “normal” at WFMU.

	🥁 ♥ 11:11am (Mr) Bill: Whenever I write the word "outage," I spell it with two Ts and have to correct myself. Maybe I have "outrage" is top of unconscious mind.

	11:37am Bob Brainen: Hey there, Soule
	11:37am Bob Brainen: Howdy, Franco Twinkie
	🥁 ♥ 11:39am StringOFperils: I can still (for whatever reason) clearly re-experience sitting at the breakfast table in winter 1973, before school, listening to AM radio, and the set was Rick Nelson's 'Garden Party', Glen Campbell's 'Ann', Dolly Parton's 'Jolene', and Sly Stone's 'Family Affair'. Guess which one blew a hole in the world and let the future in.
	🥁 ♥ 11:40am Franco Twinkie: Jolene?
	🥁 ♥ 11:41am StringOFperils: Next contestant!
	🥁 ♥ 11:44am StringOFperils: Not that Jolene itself didn't break some new ground...actually those were all good...but..."one child turns out to be, somebody you'd just love to burn"...c'mon, that was the highlight of my schoolday
	🥁 ♥ 11:49am Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @11:44 I agree! But Jolene told a story that I was yet to experience. But when I did, my lord the trouble I was in.
	🥁 ♥ 11:49am Frank Zaatar: ↳ Song: "Sometimes I'm Happy" by "Nat King Cole Trio w/ St... Morning Bob and crew! So great to year the underappreciated Stuff Smith.
	🥁 ♥ 11:50am Mxter Baba: I found my way in! Howdy, Bob, WFMU palz, SOpkins, Pranko!
	🥁 ♥ 11:50am Franco Twinkie: Babinski!
	11:50am Bob Brainen: Morning, Frank Zataar
	11:51am Bob Brainen: Glad to hear it, Mxter Baba
	🥁 ♥ 11:51am doctorjazz: Hi Bob, Saturday Streamers!
	🥁 ♥ 11:51am (Mr) Bill: ↳ StringOFperils @11:44 I've always misheard that line as "somebody who just loves to burn," in the sense of "Burn, baby, burn." My world has been unalterably rocked.
	🥁 ♥ 11:51am StringOFperils: Mxter B!
	♥ 11:51am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @11:51 Hi there, doc!
	🥁 ♥ 11:52am Mxter Baba: freeformal normal!
	11:52am Bob Brainen: This is another entryway, maybe the best: wfmu.org...
	11:52am Bob Brainen: Hi, doctorjazz
	🥁 ♥ 11:53am Soule: A cat named Jolene is staying at our house while her owners and dog are up in the redwoods escaping Fourth of July fireworks noise. photos.app.goo.gl...
	🥁 ♥ 11:53am Mxter Baba: I entered through my daily Drummer stream email!
	11:54am Bob Brainen: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:53 There you go.
	🥁 ♥ 11:54am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Soule @11:53 What a cutie!
	🥁 ♥ 11:55am Mxter Baba: ↳ Song: "Rock It" by "Thumper Jones" ack when rockin’ meant more than shaking your hair around and making devil horn hands!
	♥ 11:55am Dano59: ↳ Bob Brainen @10:55 that explains everything in bold text here (playlist, comments) and redesigned FMU landing page ...
	🥁 ♥ 11:56am Mxter Baba: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:55 where did that initial b go? Obviously it’s time to prepare for a caffeine infusion
	11:56am Bob Brainen: Morning, Dano59,
	🥁 ♥ 11:57am StringOFperils: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:55 Ack is a good spit take though, so it worked for me
	🥁 ♥ 11:58am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:55 I like to think that Thumper Jones had a house full of kids and worked at a gas station out on the highway when he wasn't rocking it.
	♥ 11:59am TDK60: It's a morning for a minute or two more; good morning Bob!
	11:59am Bob Brainen: Hey, TDK60
	🥁 ♥ 12:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:51 Hey Andrew!
	♥ 12:00pm Doug Schulkind: Good afternoon, Bob!
	🥁 ♥ 12:01pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:00 So, how did the potato salad turn out?
	12:01pm Bob Brainen: Good afternoon to you, Doug
	♥ 12:03pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Psychedelic Situation" by "Jimmy Curtiss" Hmmmnn....you may need to see a specialist. Or, at least a guide.
	🥁 ♥ 12:03pm StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "Psychedelic Situation" by "Jimmy Curtiss" Hah! This is a good one.
	🥁 ♥ 12:03pm PAULS: Still morning here in flash flood central... so good morning Bob!
	🥁 ♥ 12:05pm Mxter Baba: mmm, potato salad—my summer snacking has not enjoyed that yet
	♥ 12:05pm Doug Schulkind: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:01 It was delicious, Franco Twinkie. The secret ingredient? No, silly, it was anchovies!
	12:05pm Bob Brainen: Hey PAULS
	🥁 ♥ 12:05pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Soule @11:53 Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, JOLENE.
	🥁 ♥ 12:05pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:05 Noted!
	🥁 ♥ 12:07pm Soule: ↳ (Mr) Bill @12:05 [smile]
	🥁 ♥ 12:11pm Will thee SG OCNY: Good morning Bob Brainen and all!!! 🐸 🐸 🐸
	♥ 12:12pm TDK60: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:05 Anchovies mentioned! (Hello Doug.) This reminds me. Twice recently I was in a cheap open-to-the-street pizza joint and THEY DIDN'T HAVE OREGANO, NOR HAD THEY BLACK PEPPER!! I almost called the fuzz but realized that would lead nowhere. But...I am moving through life with a grim demeanor. Sad.
	♥ 12:14pm Doug Schulkind: ↳ TDK60 @12:12 These really are the end times, TDK60.
	♥ 12:17pm TDK60: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:14 Yes Doug. It's so unpleasant to ponder, it really should be deleted from the history books.
	♥ 12:18pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "She Don't Care About Time" by "The Byrds" I love this Byrds cut. For a long time only available on a 45. I bought it marked "Rare" at the old Colony Records shop in Midtown NYC. Oh yeah, and Gene Clark!
	🥁 ♥ 12:30pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @12:18 As a ten year old who liked to play baseball and light fires, The Byrds were a profound influence. Musically of course, but those early pictures! Of course as a kid who was milk chocolate brown with curly short hair, it would be an impossible fantasy to try and emulate. But I tried! The closest I got was a pair of granny glasses that I would wear to baseball practice.
	♥ 12:32pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:30 Hola Franco. That combo was yet another of the great ones assembled in your hep locale. But, granny glasses at baseball practice?! There's a song in there somehow. A folk-rock sound, mind you.
	🥁 ♥ 12:34pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @12:32 Much to the consternation of the coach I have to say "How are going to catch a pop fly with those stupid glasses on!?'
	♥ 12:39pm Rich in Wading River: ↳ Song: "Church" by "James Blood Ulmer" I’ve slept way too long on James Blood Ulmer.
	♥ 12:41pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:34 See, Franco? There's song material in this incident. Hitmakers are standing by just a few exits away over at the Capitol Tower, down at the Whiskey.
	12:42pm Bob Brainen: Hiya, Rich in Wading River. Blood is a favorite.
	♥ 12:44pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Church" by "James Blood Ulmer" True factiness from my past-> A 1980s New Wave rock bassist gave me this album because they found the album too "out." My demeanor was all shiny-happy-LP-owner.
	🥁 ♥ 12:44pm Soule: I went through a weird phase in my thirties when I arranged my LPs by label, partly because it made the spines look interesting on the shelf. I was surprised to find that I had more Columbia LPs than any other label. All the Bob Dylans, all the 60s and 70s Miles Davises, my first Steve Reich and Terry Riley... Before the great Columbia jazz purge of 1973 ( www.honest-broker.com... ) they had significant albums by Ornette and Keith Jarrett.
	🥁 ♥ 12:46pm PAULS: ↳ Song: "Crazy Blues" by "Mamie Smith And Her Jazz Hounds" The very first! She's buried on Staten Island -- grave was unmarked until 2014, I contributed to a kickstarter that put a nice one up for her...
	🥁 ♥ 12:59pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @12:41 I was able to confabulate my idea of an album cover in the Summer of 1966. On a family vacation to San Francisco, we went to The Legion of Honor - a museum full of musty painting and other remnants of past. I saw a bronze statue of Shiva, the Hindu goddess of war raising her many arms and standing on one foot. Later that week, we went to Muir Beach in Marin County where I convinced my father to take a picture of me with a traffic cone on my head wearing my granny glasses and striking a pose like Shiva. I think I was trying to make art, but I was thinking about Soupy Sales.
	1:00pm JoeChrisMorris: ↳ Song: "Creators Of Rain" by "Smokey & His Sister" Good choice. Good single! Is the rest of the album as good?
	1:01pm JoeChrisMorris: Morning all, sorry I'm late, my bed was on fire!
	1:01pm Bob Brainen: ↳ JoeChrisMorris @1:00 Hi Joe, I love it.
	1:02pm JoeChrisMorris: ↳ PAULS @12:46 Wish I was dead; people say nice things about you and do a Kickstarter for you
	1:04pm JoeChrisMorris: ↳ Bob Brainen @1:01 The whole album? I found the chords for Inventors of Rain! Sounds kinda jazzy on guitar : and it made #100 on the charts
	♥ 1:06pm Wendy del Formaggio: I love this Andy Williams track. I also love the cover the English Beat did.
	🥁 ♥ 1:06pm StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "Can't Get Used to Losing You" by "Andy Williams" This chord progression. What a hook!
	♥ 1:13pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:59 F.T. I've been to Muir Beach. You've added more material for another verse...granny glasses in Marin. Co. Get Lou Adler on the phone.
	🥁 ♥ 1:14pm Soule: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @1:06 Ditto!
	♥ 1:17pm Wendy del Formaggio: This show is helping make my Saturday, puttering around the house, cooking, organizing, putting away records, etc., so pleasant. Thank you, dear Bob Brainen!
	🥁 ♥ 1:18pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ Frank Zaatar @11:49 You know, a set about Columbia could simply have been called About an Hour with the Greatest Music Ever Recorded.
	🥁 ♥ 1:20pm PAULS: YAY GRAPE!
	🥁 ♥ 1:21pm StringOFperils: Alexander the Great!
	🥁 ♥ 1:22pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @1:13 Seriously, I don't think it would mean squat to anyone under sixty. But what am I suppose to do with all this stuff that rattles around in my head? But hey, you got the ball rolling talking about The Byrds, right?
	🥁 ♥ 1:22pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Omaha" by "Moby Grape" THIS!
	🥁 ♥ 1:23pm Soule: I just remembered that "Living Time," the weirdest, wonderfulest Bill Evans album, was on Columbia.
	♥ 1:26pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:22 Yep.
	♥ 1:29pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:22 FT- I knew Bob would have to spin from this debut slab. I was just talking yesterday about the infamous middle finger caper on the M.G. album cover.
	🥁 ♥ 1:30pm StringOFperils: Claudine L
	🥁 ♥ 1:30pm Frank Zaatar: Claudine Longet
	🥁 ♥ 1:31pm Mxter Baba: yes, Claudine—my friend's father knew Spider—what a wild scene
	♥ 1:32pm spodiodi: Greetings, Bob and all.
	🥁 ♥ 1:32pm PAULS: Infamous SNL skit about the "The Claudine Longet Ski Invitational" where all the participants are shot mid-jump
	🥁 ♥ 1:33pm StringOFperils: English Beat. A second cover? That's a surprise to me
	🥁 ♥ 1:38pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @1:29 ...yes. I heard it was the result of Jim Marshall trying to get 'the best shot'. He was dragging Moby Grape all over Marin. Finally, he found that junk shop in Fairfax. The finger was Don Lewis saying we're done. Was that what you heard?
	♥ 1:40pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:38 Franco. I didn't know the details! I knew you might. I figured some suit like John Hammond Sr. or Clive Davis threw a shit fit back at Columbia HQ in Manhattan.
	🥁 ♥ 1:42pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @1:40 I had the poster on my bedroom wall when I was a teenager.
	♥ 1:53pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:56 What an inspired show! Thanks, Bob!
	♥ 1:54pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:38 [Don Stevenson; there was a Peter Lewis there.]
	🥁 ♥ 1:55pm StringOFperils: Nice! Early Joe's hard to beat. Seemed like the last of it for me though...Tulsa Tops people on this??
	🥁 ♥ 1:56pm PAULS: thanks Bob!
	🥁 ♥ 1:57pm listener 126464: Thanks for another great show, Bob.
	🥁 ♥ 1:57pm Soule: Super show, Bob! Many thanks.
	🥁 ♥ 1:57pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Song: "High Time We Went" by "Joe Cocker" A great, great cut. It's never high time to go from this show. Thanks, Bob.
	♥ 1:57pm TDK60: Gracias, Bob. Keep cool.
	🥁 ♥ 1:59pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Bob. Great way to spend the morning when the air outside is toxic.
	🥁 ♥ 1:59pm Mxter Baba: thanks, Bob! take good care
	🥁 ♥ 2:04pm StringOFperils: Thanks!
	♥ 2:07pm spodiodi: Thanks, Bob!
	🥁 ♥ 2:21pm WR: thanks Bob, regarding the Gunsmoke circus: en.wikipedia.org... Also living in New Orleans, the street and the infamous projects were generally pronounced kal lee ope.
	2:24pm Bob Brainen: ↳ WR @2:21 Wow, thanks WR, that's pretty amazing.

Please go to this address in order to reach WFMU’s live streams and playlist and chat pages: freeform.wfmu.org again, that new web address is freeform.wfmu.org Our pop-up archive player is working again, and archives also still work from our three mobile apps – “WFMU Radio” and the “WFMU Archive Bunker” in the Apple iTunes App Store, and the “Woof Moo Player” in the Google Play store. Sorry for this outage! Our IT team is working round the clock trying to get things back to what passes as “normal” at WFMU.

	11:37am Bob Brainen: Howdy, Franco Twinkie
	🥁 ♥ 11:39am StringOFperils: I can still (for whatever reason) clearly re-experience sitting at the breakfast table in winter 1973, before school, listening to AM radio, and the set was Rick Nelson's 'Garden Party', Glen Campbell's 'Ann', Dolly Parton's 'Jolene', and Sly Stone's 'Family Affair'. Guess which one blew a hole in the world and let the future in.
	🥁 ♥ 11:40am Franco Twinkie: Jolene?
	🥁 ♥ 11:41am StringOFperils: Next contestant!
	🥁 ♥ 11:44am StringOFperils: Not that Jolene itself didn't break some new ground...actually those were all good...but..."one child turns out to be, somebody you'd just love to burn"...c'mon, that was the highlight of my schoolday
	🥁 ♥ 11:49am Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @11:44 I agree! But Jolene told a story that I was yet to experience. But when I did, my lord the trouble I was in.
	🥁 ♥ 11:49am Frank Zaatar: ↳ Song: "Sometimes I'm Happy" by "Nat King Cole Trio w/ St... Morning Bob and crew! So great to year the underappreciated Stuff Smith.
	🥁 ♥ 11:50am Mxter Baba: I found my way in! Howdy, Bob, WFMU palz, SOpkins, Pranko!
	🥁 ♥ 11:50am Franco Twinkie: Babinski!
	11:50am Bob Brainen: Morning, Frank Zataar
	11:51am Bob Brainen: Glad to hear it, Mxter Baba
	🥁 ♥ 11:51am doctorjazz: Hi Bob, Saturday Streamers!
	🥁 ♥ 11:51am (Mr) Bill: ↳ StringOFperils @11:44 I've always misheard that line as "somebody who just loves to burn," in the sense of "Burn, baby, burn." My world has been unalterably rocked.
	🥁 ♥ 11:51am StringOFperils: Mxter B!
	♥ 11:51am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @11:51 Hi there, doc!
	🥁 ♥ 11:52am Mxter Baba: freeformal normal!
	11:52am Bob Brainen: This is another entryway, maybe the best: wfmu.org...
	11:52am Bob Brainen: Hi, doctorjazz
	🥁 ♥ 11:53am Soule: A cat named Jolene is staying at our house while her owners and dog are up in the redwoods escaping Fourth of July fireworks noise. photos.app.goo.gl...
	🥁 ♥ 11:53am Mxter Baba: I entered through my daily Drummer stream email!
	11:54am Bob Brainen: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:53 There you go.
	🥁 ♥ 11:54am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Soule @11:53 What a cutie!
	🥁 ♥ 11:55am Mxter Baba: ↳ Song: "Rock It" by "Thumper Jones" ack when rockin’ meant more than shaking your hair around and making devil horn hands!
	♥ 11:55am Dano59: ↳ Bob Brainen @10:55 that explains everything in bold text here (playlist, comments) and redesigned FMU landing page ...
	🥁 ♥ 11:56am Mxter Baba: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:55 where did that initial b go? Obviously it’s time to prepare for a caffeine infusion
	11:56am Bob Brainen: Morning, Dano59,
	🥁 ♥ 11:57am StringOFperils: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:55 Ack is a good spit take though, so it worked for me
	🥁 ♥ 11:58am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:55 I like to think that Thumper Jones had a house full of kids and worked at a gas station out on the highway when he wasn't rocking it.
	♥ 11:59am TDK60: It's a morning for a minute or two more; good morning Bob!
	11:59am Bob Brainen: Hey, TDK60
	🥁 ♥ 12:00pm doctorjazz: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:51 Hey Andrew!
	♥ 12:00pm Doug Schulkind: Good afternoon, Bob!
	🥁 ♥ 12:01pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:00 So, how did the potato salad turn out?
	12:01pm Bob Brainen: Good afternoon to you, Doug
	♥ 12:03pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Psychedelic Situation" by "Jimmy Curtiss" Hmmmnn....you may need to see a specialist. Or, at least a guide.
	🥁 ♥ 12:03pm StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "Psychedelic Situation" by "Jimmy Curtiss" Hah! This is a good one.
	🥁 ♥ 12:03pm PAULS: Still morning here in flash flood central... so good morning Bob!
	🥁 ♥ 12:05pm Mxter Baba: mmm, potato salad—my summer snacking has not enjoyed that yet
	♥ 12:05pm Doug Schulkind: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:01 It was delicious, Franco Twinkie. The secret ingredient? No, silly, it was anchovies!
	12:05pm Bob Brainen: Hey PAULS
	🥁 ♥ 12:05pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Soule @11:53 Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, JOLENE.
	🥁 ♥ 12:05pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:05 Noted!
	🥁 ♥ 12:07pm Soule: ↳ (Mr) Bill @12:05 [smile]
	🥁 ♥ 12:11pm Will thee SG OCNY: Good morning Bob Brainen and all!!! 🐸 🐸 🐸
	♥ 12:12pm TDK60: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:05 Anchovies mentioned! (Hello Doug.) This reminds me. Twice recently I was in a cheap open-to-the-street pizza joint and THEY DIDN'T HAVE OREGANO, NOR HAD THEY BLACK PEPPER!! I almost called the fuzz but realized that would lead nowhere. But...I am moving through life with a grim demeanor. Sad.
	♥ 12:14pm Doug Schulkind: ↳ TDK60 @12:12 These really are the end times, TDK60.
	♥ 12:17pm TDK60: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:14 Yes Doug. It's so unpleasant to ponder, it really should be deleted from the history books.
	♥ 12:18pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "She Don't Care About Time" by "The Byrds" I love this Byrds cut. For a long time only available on a 45. I bought it marked "Rare" at the old Colony Records shop in Midtown NYC. Oh yeah, and Gene Clark!
	🥁 ♥ 12:30pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @12:18 As a ten year old who liked to play baseball and light fires, The Byrds were a profound influence. Musically of course, but those early pictures! Of course as a kid who was milk chocolate brown with curly short hair, it would be an impossible fantasy to try and emulate. But I tried! The closest I got was a pair of granny glasses that I would wear to baseball practice.
	♥ 12:32pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:30 Hola Franco. That combo was yet another of the great ones assembled in your hep locale. But, granny glasses at baseball practice?! There's a song in there somehow. A folk-rock sound, mind you.
	🥁 ♥ 12:34pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @12:32 Much to the consternation of the coach I have to say "How are going to catch a pop fly with those stupid glasses on!?'
	♥ 12:39pm Rich in Wading River: ↳ Song: "Church" by "James Blood Ulmer" I’ve slept way too long on James Blood Ulmer.
	♥ 12:41pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:34 See, Franco? There's song material in this incident. Hitmakers are standing by just a few exits away over at the Capitol Tower, down at the Whiskey.
	12:42pm Bob Brainen: Hiya, Rich in Wading River. Blood is a favorite.
	♥ 12:44pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Church" by "James Blood Ulmer" True factiness from my past-> A 1980s New Wave rock bassist gave me this album because they found the album too "out." My demeanor was all shiny-happy-LP-owner.
	🥁 ♥ 12:44pm Soule: I went through a weird phase in my thirties when I arranged my LPs by label, partly because it made the spines look interesting on the shelf. I was surprised to find that I had more Columbia LPs than any other label. All the Bob Dylans, all the 60s and 70s Miles Davises, my first Steve Reich and Terry Riley... Before the great Columbia jazz purge of 1973 ( www.honest-broker.com... ) they had significant albums by Ornette and Keith Jarrett.
	🥁 ♥ 12:46pm PAULS: ↳ Song: "Crazy Blues" by "Mamie Smith And Her Jazz Hounds" The very first! She's buried on Staten Island -- grave was unmarked until 2014, I contributed to a kickstarter that put a nice one up for her...
	🥁 ♥ 12:59pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @12:41 I was able to confabulate my idea of an album cover in the Summer of 1966. On a family vacation to San Francisco, we went to The Legion of Honor - a museum full of musty painting and other remnants of past. I saw a bronze statue of Shiva, the Hindu goddess of war raising her many arms and standing on one foot. Later that week, we went to Muir Beach in Marin County where I convinced my father to take a picture of me with a traffic cone on my head wearing my granny glasses and striking a pose like Shiva. I think I was trying to make art, but I was thinking about Soupy Sales.
	1:00pm JoeChrisMorris: ↳ Song: "Creators Of Rain" by "Smokey & His Sister" Good choice. Good single! Is the rest of the album as good?
	1:01pm JoeChrisMorris: Morning all, sorry I'm late, my bed was on fire!
	1:01pm Bob Brainen: ↳ JoeChrisMorris @1:00 Hi Joe, I love it.
	1:02pm JoeChrisMorris: ↳ PAULS @12:46 Wish I was dead; people say nice things about you and do a Kickstarter for you
	1:04pm JoeChrisMorris: ↳ Bob Brainen @1:01 The whole album? I found the chords for Inventors of Rain! Sounds kinda jazzy on guitar : and it made #100 on the charts
	♥ 1:06pm Wendy del Formaggio: I love this Andy Williams track. I also love the cover the English Beat did.
	🥁 ♥ 1:06pm StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "Can't Get Used to Losing You" by "Andy Williams" This chord progression. What a hook!
	♥ 1:13pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:59 F.T. I've been to Muir Beach. You've added more material for another verse...granny glasses in Marin. Co. Get Lou Adler on the phone.
	🥁 ♥ 1:14pm Soule: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @1:06 Ditto!
	♥ 1:17pm Wendy del Formaggio: This show is helping make my Saturday, puttering around the house, cooking, organizing, putting away records, etc., so pleasant. Thank you, dear Bob Brainen!
	🥁 ♥ 1:18pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ Frank Zaatar @11:49 You know, a set about Columbia could simply have been called About an Hour with the Greatest Music Ever Recorded.
	🥁 ♥ 1:20pm PAULS: YAY GRAPE!
	🥁 ♥ 1:21pm StringOFperils: Alexander the Great!
	🥁 ♥ 1:22pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @1:13 Seriously, I don't think it would mean squat to anyone under sixty. But what am I suppose to do with all this stuff that rattles around in my head? But hey, you got the ball rolling talking about The Byrds, right?
	🥁 ♥ 1:22pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Omaha" by "Moby Grape" THIS!
	🥁 ♥ 1:23pm Soule: I just remembered that "Living Time," the weirdest, wonderfulest Bill Evans album, was on Columbia.
	♥ 1:26pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:22 Yep.
	♥ 1:29pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:22 FT- I knew Bob would have to spin from this debut slab. I was just talking yesterday about the infamous middle finger caper on the M.G. album cover.
	🥁 ♥ 1:30pm StringOFperils: Claudine L
	🥁 ♥ 1:30pm Frank Zaatar: Claudine Longet
	🥁 ♥ 1:31pm Mxter Baba: yes, Claudine—my friend's father knew Spider—what a wild scene
	♥ 1:32pm spodiodi: Greetings, Bob and all.
	🥁 ♥ 1:32pm PAULS: Infamous SNL skit about the "The Claudine Longet Ski Invitational" where all the participants are shot mid-jump
	🥁 ♥ 1:33pm StringOFperils: English Beat. A second cover? That's a surprise to me
	🥁 ♥ 1:38pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @1:29 ...yes. I heard it was the result of Jim Marshall trying to get 'the best shot'. He was dragging Moby Grape all over Marin. Finally, he found that junk shop in Fairfax. The finger was Don Lewis saying we're done. Was that what you heard?
	♥ 1:40pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:38 Franco. I didn't know the details! I knew you might. I figured some suit like John Hammond Sr. or Clive Davis threw a shit fit back at Columbia HQ in Manhattan.
	🥁 ♥ 1:42pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @1:40 I had the poster on my bedroom wall when I was a teenager.
	♥ 1:53pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:56 What an inspired show! Thanks, Bob!
	♥ 1:54pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:38 [Don Stevenson; there was a Peter Lewis there.]
	🥁 ♥ 1:55pm StringOFperils: Nice! Early Joe's hard to beat. Seemed like the last of it for me though...Tulsa Tops people on this??
	🥁 ♥ 1:56pm PAULS: thanks Bob!
	🥁 ♥ 1:57pm listener 126464: Thanks for another great show, Bob.
	🥁 ♥ 1:57pm Soule: Super show, Bob! Many thanks.
	🥁 ♥ 1:57pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Song: "High Time We Went" by "Joe Cocker" A great, great cut. It's never high time to go from this show. Thanks, Bob.
	♥ 1:57pm TDK60: Gracias, Bob. Keep cool.
	🥁 ♥ 1:59pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Bob. Great way to spend the morning when the air outside is toxic.
	🥁 ♥ 1:59pm Mxter Baba: thanks, Bob! take good care
	🥁 ♥ 2:04pm StringOFperils: Thanks!
	♥ 2:07pm spodiodi: Thanks, Bob!
	🥁 ♥ 2:21pm WR: thanks Bob, regarding the Gunsmoke circus: en.wikipedia.org... Also living in New Orleans, the street and the infamous projects were generally pronounced kal lee ope.
	2:24pm Bob Brainen: ↳ WR @2:21 Wow, thanks WR, that's pretty amazing.
