Listener comments!
	6:11am Sue: Joe! Awesome track! You totally rule! :) It's just perfect for this time of morning.
	6:12am Joe: Thanks, Sue, and good morning to you! I'm glad you're with me this morning.
	6:19am Sue: I'm just sitting around listening to your show again. I gotta get ready for work! :)
	6:20am Joe: Uh-oh! I'm making you so unproductive!
	6:21am Sue: At least I can listen while I iron :)
	6:22am Sue: I think you should know that you're driving me crazy with this set right now. It's too unreal
	6:22am Joe: Just so long as you pretend you are in a Bollywood musical while you do it!
	6:51am Marco: Great show! Wanna hear the Peter Walker LP. Greetings to all from London, England!
	6:53am Joe: Hey, Marco! Welcome to you and all of our fine listeners from the UK and environs. Saw Peter Walker at Cecil Sharp earlier this year. Great stuff!
	6:56am Marco: Must have been awesome, Joe! Thank you for the great selection. Hope is well in beautiful NYC and continue to play more of thie fantastic stuff.
	7:05am Joe: Hey, thanks, Marco! It's lookin' pretty good out there this morning, so I hope it's a beautiful day. Hope all is swell over there!
	7:10am Marco: It sure is! Summer has reached these shores too. Will buy the Peter Walker and Sandy Bull LP reissues you just spoke about. Any mail order recommendation from your side? When I am in NY I go to Other Music but have no visit planned for the moment (unfortunately). Will now tune in every Saturday. What a great discovery: you made my day.
	7:12am Joe: Wow, Marco, that's so cool! Thanks. If you like Other Music, they do mail order online, so you can still shop there if you like!
	7:13am Marco: Thank YOU, Joe. All the best.
	7:37am Jeffersonic: Joe Maphis is it! The 1:58 min. "electric" version of "Fire on the Strings" just tears it to pieces!
	7:39am Joe: You said it! That's an amazing LP.
	7:52am Marco: Wow! The Last and Starz! You really know your music, Joe! What next? Any Willie Alexander? The db's? Do you accept requests for next week? Just joking, you choose. TOP SHOW!!!
	7:54am Joe: To tell you the truth, Marco, I feel like playing the Starz 45 about 8 times in a row! God, I love that record. Feel free to send me requests! I can't guarantee I'll play 'em, but maybe! I like your two suggestions so far!
	8:07am ?: I will love to be surprised by your outstanding taste, Joe! Just a few humble random thoughts: anything on the ORK label (Prix, Alex Chilton, Chris Bell, early Television). Any MV&EE music from nowadays (love them myself). A track from the latest Vetiver album. Just blabbering. You play what you feel is right and I will listen and appreciate.
	8:09am Joe: Those are all such great suggestions! Wish I had 3 more hours and I'd get 'em all in!
	8:15am fred: I like this transmission a lot. And I like a lot of what you've transmitted so far. My request is for you to keep doing what you do. It's less fun if I know what's coming
	8:17am Joe: Thanks, Fred! I'll try to keep you guessing.
	8:40am Marco: May the rest of your Saturday be as good as the music you played today. Am going out myself to take advantage of God's sunny day and a London park. I will tune in next Saturday again. Ciao! (My Italian nationality creeps through!)
	8:44am Joe: Thanks, Marco! Have a great day, and thanks for tuning in!
	8:44am Listener Lisa in Tampa: Great show, Joe! And other things that rhyme!
	8:47am dale: nice program. I keep getting thrown off when i'm so accustomed to the olde timey brit/folk etc on in this timeslot. but this is lovely to wake up to. cheers!
	8:48am Joe: Thanks, Lisa from Tampa!! And thanks, Dale. Yes, my show is a bit different than Jeff's. But I'll get some of that folk on, too, I swear!
	8:53am Joe: In fact, here's some nice Brit folk for you now!
	8:54am dale: don't do that for me joe, i like hearing all this new (old) stuff. oops! there you go with the pentangle...jacqui mcshee has the best reedy voice...
	8:56am Joe: Love her voice!
