Listener comments!

  12:04am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

Good evening, Mike! Thanks for filling in for Sue. I'm looking forward to the next three hours!
  12:10am
Matt from Springfield:

Hi there Mike! Glad to have you on tonight!

Black Hollies! Love them, love this album!

Mike Sin:

Hey BadGuyZero!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:10am
Mike Sin:

All right Matt!
  12:14am
Matt from Springfield:

Appreciate those who cover Beatles obscurities like this one.
  12:15am
Matt from Springfield:

Written by George, recorded by George at EMI Bombay with the musicians recording the Wonderwall soundtrack. Released 1968, B-side of "Lady Madonna".
  12:23am
Sunny Kim:

This is really great music. I'm thankful for your fill-in!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:24am
Mike Sin:

Thank you Sunny!
  12:24am
Matt from Springfield:

EMI Vault material! Hidden treasures!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:27am
Mike Sin:

Thanks for commenting folks! Make me feel alive out there!
  12:30am
Matt from Springfield:

Alive and ROCKIN!
Watch Children, a good psychey-delic nugget I'm new to.
  12:33am
Terre T:

Tell me u were really playin a cassette on that Watch Children cut brosef!?
  12:47am
brycepunk:

Solid Gold Hell substitute -- you are doing well. Big shoes to fill. I trust you.
  12:50am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

I don't know which studio Amanda Nazario does her show from, but she did an all cassette show a few weeks back. As far as I know no tapes were devoured. The only picky equipment I'm aware of is a CD player that tends to skip if someone attempts to play a CDR and turntable #2 in one of the studios like to create left- or right-channel only mixes.

And of course there's the squeaky chair!
  12:52am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

I need to get that Lovestruck 7-inch!

Giuda released a few records as Taxi that are top-notch too.
  12:56am
Matt from Springfield:

Web-only shows used to be in Studio B, but from what Amanda's announced, it seems they've moved to Studio C this year. Mike Sin's prob in A right now.

And to summarize: avoid Turntable 2 in ANY studio! They're all possessed! :)
  12:57am
Matt from Springfield:

Is THIS the origin of the "99th Floor Elevators"?
  12:59am
Matt from Springfield:

Paul Revere & The Raiders "Just Like Me" -- WHO ripped off whose riff first?!
  12:59am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

@Matt: You're off by 86 floors. :P
  1:04am
Matt from Springfield:

True, it was probably taken from the 13th, but wondered if the 99th floor lyric had anything to do with. "Twenty Floor Rock", "99th floor of the block", so many refs to floor levels in rock!
  1:12am
Terre T:

@Matt from Springfield -great observation! Don't forget "Heaven on the 7th Floor"! And thx for always being there MFromS & BGZero!
  1:14am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

That Lovestruck single is proving to be elusive. But I did find out about a new Ty Segall/Velvet Underground split flexi and pounced on that!
  1:15am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

Hello, Terre T! I hope your week is off to a tremendous start!
  1:19am
Matt from Springfield:

Thanks Terre T! Always glad to be always here!

Stick with me sleepyheads!
  1:41am
Terre T:

Luvin' this xtra bonus mini-Singles Going Steady show. This Wylde Mammoths is pretty!
  1:43am
Matt from Springfield:

Wow, music hall rock! As a huge Anglophile, I approve 'eartily!
  1:47am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

Ended up emailing LoveStruck to see if they have any of those singles left. :sigh:
  1:48am
Matt from Springfield:

Loving the whole mini Singles block, great sound!
  1:51am
John Wy:

Happy Thanksgiving Mikey! Eat plenty of mashed potatoes and green bean casserole, etc. Put some fat on for the winter!
  1:53am
Matt from Springfield:

Hey, *I* liked it! Good choice Mike!
  1:53am
KP:

Hey, Mike!
  1:53am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

A downer song to kick-start the alcoholidays!
  1:54am
Matt from Springfield:

@BGZ: Cheers to the alcoholidays, and its alcoholidaze! ;)

Hey, KP!
  1:54am
osvi:

  1:55am
Yair Yona (Tel Aviv, Israel,Earth,Milky Way):

You're not alone!
  1:55am
Joe B:

Hey Mike! wow, what are you doin up so late!
  1:55am
KP:

Is there a band called the Sleepyheads?
  1:56am
KP:

How 'd the lakers do?
  1:58am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

Lakers won 95-90.
  1:59am
KP:

Thanks.
  2:01am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

"Wild As Soul" came out in 1985. They released an album in 1986 and another 7-inch in 1987.
  2:02am
Chop Scott:

Excellent show Mike--Cheers!
  2:05am
KP:

Lot of Hoosiers on this train.
  2:07am
Matt from Springfield:

Every Mother's Son--WFMU has been a great resource for playing their lesser known songs. It seems EVERY non-hit of theirs is pretty good!
  2:07am
KP:

Wow that sounded like the Monkees. Raging Gretsches.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:10am
Mike Sin:

Osvi, Joe B, Yair Yona, Chop Scott, KP -- Well all right! Thanks!
  2:12am
KP:

This is so awesome. Baby ...
  2:17am
V:

A true hero...
  2:17am
Matt from Springfield:

Prehistoric Bowie! Nice!
  2:18am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

T. Bowie!
  2:21am
Matt from Springfield:

@BGZ: In the late 60s I believe it was "Tyrannosaurus Bowie"! :)

Go old folk-rock Gerry!
  2:24am
KP:

Tim Hardin is so real.
  2:30am
Joe B:

This single was on my record fair list
  2:36am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

When I was up there in June I was staying with a friend that lives at 2nd & Coles. I was coming out of the Grove PATH station and Iris Records was setting their boot up. Found a couple of things. Found more at their store over on Brunswick St. Great recommendation from Therese!
  2:38am
KP:

Grove! Have to check it out, tnx.
  2:39am
KP:

BGZ, is the store far from Grove?
  2:43am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

It's about a ten minute walk. There's a street market around the Grove station on the second or third weekend of the month. I don't know if it's year-round. But Grove has quite a bit of vinyl and some CDs. The vinyl is divided by genre but not alphabetized. Lots of records for two or three bucks each.
  2:46am
tmurf:

Awwwww! Actually this was a big childhood fave as a kid. You rock, Mike Sin! Fill in more.
  2:47am
KP:

Thanks BGZ, and Mike. Happy Thanksgiving all!
  2:49am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

I'm pleased to be able to pass some info along, KP. You have a great Thanksgiving as well!
  2:50am
tmurf:

also while I'm up - miss your regular(?) CBC fills ins. Fill in more!
  2:54am
Joe B:

Great volume of Garage Beat 66! was just playing this the other day
  2:59am
Matt from Springfield:

Awesome show! Thanks Mike!
Keep on rockin' everyone, good night and have a good Thanksgiving!
  3:00am
