	12:52am Joe McG: Hi, everyone I haven't said hi to yet!
	12:53am Cheri Pi: Hi Scott! Jayzo this is a blast from the past.

	1:02am Joe McG: @CP: Ha ha! @KP: You old Rascal, you!
	1:04am Cheri Pi: Teeheeheehee!!!!!!!!!!
	1:05am KP: Heh. That's me.
	1:05am Ralphine: Do they really still call themselves the Young Rascals?
	1:07am Cheri Pi: Oooooo, Kurt, I had no idea
	1:08am Matt from Springfield: Prince played "Guitar"? Ziggy also played guitar. Hi Joe and Surface Noisers of the Night!
	1:08am Cheri Pi: I can't wait for Duane's premium...sigh
	1:09am Cheri Pi: Heya MFS!
	1:09am b: Actually Ziggy played geetahh
	1:09am KP: No. No more "Young." I think of them as that though and feel it sounds funny w/o it.
	1:09am Cheri Pi: b's kinda right
	1:10am Matt from Springfield: Well HELLO CP! Pleasant surprise seeing you here! :) All of these "daytime celebs" here, actually!
	1:10am Matt from Springfield: Well HELLO CP! Pleasant surprise seeing you here! :) All of these "daytime celebs" here, actually!
	1:11am Ralphine: Prince borrowed Kirk Douglas's guitar when he was on Jimmy Fallon's show and broke it at the end of his number.
	1:12am Matt from Springfield: @b: Ziggy played geeeetaaahhhhhhhhhhhhaahh, to include a bassline ending. @KP: The Rascals were once "Young" in the 60s, then they weren't. Now not sure what to call them. But, as long as there's Felix Cavaliere in the lineup?
	1:13am b: geeeetaaahhhhhhhhhhhhaahh, yes!
	1:13am Joe McG: @Raphine: Ha ha! @Matt: Hey, Matt, all springy in Springfield this evening?
	1:14am KP: Lonely Planet Boy, I had misgivings about broadway aspect but they proved unfounded. Everything was great.
	1:14am b: So, who is more gay, Ziggy or Hedwig?
	1:14am Ralphine: Kirk was pissed.
	1:15am b: And which of them would rock my hat better?
	1:15am jeff-m: evening sir. been helping me keep up the pace and crank out some chores. great show tonight!
	1:16am b: Joe the Pro, Mr. Eclectic, I'm diggin' it as usual!
	1:16am Matt from Springfield: Hey Joe, diggin' this Slavic Soul Party! It May be getting even more Springy in Springfield! @b: Ziggy sounds the more gay, but I'm certain Hedwig would rock your hat.
	1:17am Joe McG: Jeff-m! Thanks, man! Hey, b, thanks!
	1:18am b: "Otis! My man!"
	1:18am Lonely Planet Boy: hey b: I was just typing to Joe that he was "covering a lot of ground tonight" when your message popped up.
	1:20am b: Watch out, LPB, he just might slip in something from the '30s when you least expect it!
	1:21am Matt from Springfield: @Joe: I just heard a great single from Martha & The Vandellas later years, "Tear It On Down" from '72. It's a great one!
	1:21am Lonely Planet Boy: b: That's fine w/ me.
	1:21am Matt from Springfield: @b: I hope it's a radio broadcast "transcription"!
	1:22am Julie: Something kinda T. Rex about this
	1:23am b: Or something from "Alfred Hitchcock Presents Ghost Stories for Young People."
	1:24am b: @julie, good call
	1:25am b: Little records, big holes! Little records, big holes!
	1:29am Matt from Springfield: Too bad it's only for a half hour, b! Since they're at 45 rpm, how about 45 minutes of 45 revolutions per minute? :)
	1:31am b: Matt.....don't tease me......
	1:33am b: Ow, sticks to my bridgework...
	1:33am Matt from Springfield: I'm no accordionist, so I don't tease, or squeeze... Ooooh!!! Ohio Players?! Ohio Players?! Wow, Tommy Roe, this is one of his better ones!!
	1:34am Lonely Planet Boy: I have this 45 on the ABC Dunhill label. Also have Dizzy, too.
	1:35am KP: Ooh. Sore point in household. I can't get off work to go to Tommy Roe Monday. Joe, can you work for me.
	1:35am b: QUATROOOOOOOOOOO!
	1:35am Julie: I have DGD on a 45 too! I was obsessed for a while with getting all the Suzi b-sides
	1:35am KP: MJM is enjoying this though.
	1:35am Matt from Springfield: @LPB: To Clay Pigeon, the ABC Dunhill label can do no wrong. Glam Suzi!!!!
	1:36am Matt from Springfield: Hey Julie! What's your fave Suzi B-side?
	1:36am Lonely Planet Boy: Bell label was the best! Quatro and The Sweet.
	1:38am KP: Suzie Quatro was also big with Brit teeny boppers in a certain era.
	1:38am kevin g: Interesting section in Suzi Quatro's Wikipedia entry: en.wikipedia.org...
	1:40am Matt from Springfield: "Raparata and the Delrons"?? Don't know who they are, but this sounds good, kind of Shirelles like.
	1:41am Julie: Peter Peter. She did eventually put out a cd collection called A's and B's
	1:43am KP: Matt, just saw your Rascals comment. This was a big broadway production of reunion of original lineup. It was produced by Steve Van Zandt. And Eddie Brigati easily steals the show
	1:45am b: Why had I never heard that Phil Seymour track? Solid, solid power pop. Another one buried by a backward-thinking record company (or one going broke) I suppose. Good stuff.
	1:45am Matt from Springfield: Thanks Julie and KP! I once saw Felix Cavaliere on a package tour, incidentally.
	1:48am Joe McG: @b: Actually, that was the b-side of his biggest hit, "Precious to Me," which was Top 30 or Top 20 or something like that.
	1:49am b: Yeah, ok, I sure remember Precious to Me. Another long-list b-side then. Nice!
	1:49am KP: In Va? My in-laws were with us and prob saw same show in Alexandria area.
	1:51am Matt from Springfield: @KP: Yes, although at Wolf Trap.
	1:54am Julie: Joe your Singles File is always awesome.
	1:55am b: Joe, have you ever heard Conley's tribute to Otis Redding? b-side of his Obladi Oblada.
	1:55am KP: That's it. They are the rulers of the package tours .
	1:56am Joe McG: @Julie: Thanks! @b: I have, b! I kinda thought about playing it next to the Wilson Pickett one, but that's too calculated for Single File!
	1:56am Matt from Springfield: Do you like sweet soul music? Arthur Conley does, and so do I.
	1:57am KP: Don't think I've ever Arthur Conley outside of the obvious. Good one Joe.
	1:58am KP: He just compared himself to Otis Redding! That takes hutzpah, as we say on LI.
	1:59am b: Otis was Conley's mentor. He's givin' the man his props.
	2:02am KP: He should have been his successor. Tremendous talent.
	2:03am b: I reached into MY box of 45s randomly to see what came up and how it would measure up. Ricky Nelson's version of "I Got a Woman." Joe rules. :-)
	2:03am KP: b: also I didn't know that. Thanks.
	2:06am Matt from Springfield: Joe rules! And anyone with a box of 45s also rules! :)
	2:06am b: @Joe: A little cheese goes well with most things. @KP: Always happy to serve in whatever humble way my trivial brain may fit! Gnite all, late here in the midsouth.
	2:07am Julie: I love that old bell label, the silver
	2:07am purpuraj: havent been around in a while, but Im happy to be back! onward!
	2:10am Matt from Springfield: G'nite b! Onward, and UPWARD purpuraj!
	2:11am amEdeo: Goodnight everybodies. I will see you in my dreams.
	2:12am KP: He stopped loving her Friday.
	2:13am Matt from Springfield: amEdeo dreams on - as does Lily! I'll pass by you later under sleep, good night!
	2:13am KP: This time he's over her for good.
	2:14am Matt from Springfield: @KP: Doug Schulkind said that "he stopped living here today" I also like Waylon the best of those, but George J. is not to be forgotten!
	2:15am Matt from Springfield: I also like Johnny Paycheck's 'tude and well written country songs. RIP to him as well.
	2:16am amEdeo (in dreams): seeeeee youuuu theeereeeee
	2:17am Joe McG: Hey, purpuraj! Sleep well, amEdeo! @Matt: Yes, I agree, Paycheck was uniquely gifted.
	2:20am Matt from Springfield: "Where All Good Daddies Go" is a tender classic a lot of people might not know he did. Thanks for making it a Father's Day regular around here!
	2:20am KP: People can have favorites but really as a country singer no one's close to Jones. I was in Nashville when He stopped loving her first hit. It was absolutely everywhere. It was the last great country song and maybe the end of the genre.
	2:25am Joe McG: No, KP, I wouldn't go that far, but it sure must have been a doozy.
	2:27am Matt from Springfield: To no one's surprise, Nashville radio has been playing nothing but No-Show this weekend.
	2:29am Joe McG: Is that right, Matt? That's nice!
	2:32am Matt from Springfield: Yeah, "Almost Persuaded"! @Joe: I heard a news item on that--maybe Classical isn't, but come on! They should be hip enough to realize that this stuff is "future Classical" music from Nashville, and deserves a tribute! :)
	2:34am Joe McG: I just watched that video that George did with his daughter and I thought the song was kind of touching.
	2:34am KP: Joe, play Radio Lover but don't follow the example of the DJ in the song.
	2:36am Matt from Springfield: I once heard a George J. song on Willie's Roadhouse sirius channel, where the narrator is saddened by the death of Elvis, and since he just broke up with his girl he pours whiskey in a Flintstones glass. The tagline: "Yabba dabba do / The King is gone / And so are you!" a country breakup song, Elvis tribute AND novelty chorus all in one! Why it took them 30 years to give him a Kennedy Center Honor for that is criminal!! ;)
	2:36am Joe McG: @KP: Ha ha! I'm just going to do one more, I think. I've played a few faves. I'll leave the big tributes to others.
	2:37am KP: I saw Garth Brook's first performance on Nashville Now. I thought this guy is going to be huge and he just killed country music.
	2:37am Joe McG: @Matt: Well, I could play "Yabba Dabba Do" if you really want me to, but....no, maybe not!
	2:40am Matt from Springfield: Only if you have it, Joe! But even if you don't, it's well worth mentioning, so I encourage others to seek it out!
	2:40am KP: I have to go, great stuff Joe. See ya Matt
	2:40am Matt from Springfield: Good night KP! See ya around!
	2:44am Julie: Is this the southern Stephen Wright?
	2:55am Matt from Springfield: Wow, a great Lee Hazlewood style! A more "mainstream" type of country of the early 60s, thanks Joe (and Light in the Attic, as usual)!
	2:57am Joe McG: Goodnight, everybody! Thanks for listening!
	👻 2:57am 12539: Thank you, Joe.
	2:59am Matt from Springfield: All right! Many thanks Joe! Have a good night (and great week!) everyone!

	1:21am Matt from Springfield: @Joe: I just heard a great single from Martha & The Vandellas later years, "Tear It On Down" from '72. It's a great one!
	1:21am Lonely Planet Boy: b: That's fine w/ me.
	1:21am Matt from Springfield: @b: I hope it's a radio broadcast "transcription"!
	1:22am Julie: Something kinda T. Rex about this
	1:23am b: Or something from "Alfred Hitchcock Presents Ghost Stories for Young People."
	1:24am b: @julie, good call
	1:25am b: Little records, big holes! Little records, big holes!
	1:29am Matt from Springfield: Too bad it's only for a half hour, b! Since they're at 45 rpm, how about 45 minutes of 45 revolutions per minute? :)
	1:31am b: Matt.....don't tease me......
	1:33am b: Ow, sticks to my bridgework...
	1:33am Matt from Springfield: I'm no accordionist, so I don't tease, or squeeze... Ooooh!!! Ohio Players?! Ohio Players?! Wow, Tommy Roe, this is one of his better ones!!
	1:34am Lonely Planet Boy: I have this 45 on the ABC Dunhill label. Also have Dizzy, too.
	1:35am KP: Ooh. Sore point in household. I can't get off work to go to Tommy Roe Monday. Joe, can you work for me.
	1:35am b: QUATROOOOOOOOOOO!
	1:35am Julie: I have DGD on a 45 too! I was obsessed for a while with getting all the Suzi b-sides
	1:35am KP: MJM is enjoying this though.
	1:35am Matt from Springfield: @LPB: To Clay Pigeon, the ABC Dunhill label can do no wrong. Glam Suzi!!!!
	1:36am Matt from Springfield: Hey Julie! What's your fave Suzi B-side?
	1:36am Lonely Planet Boy: Bell label was the best! Quatro and The Sweet.
	1:38am KP: Suzie Quatro was also big with Brit teeny boppers in a certain era.
	1:38am kevin g: Interesting section in Suzi Quatro's Wikipedia entry: en.wikipedia.org...
	1:40am Matt from Springfield: "Raparata and the Delrons"?? Don't know who they are, but this sounds good, kind of Shirelles like.
	1:41am Julie: Peter Peter. She did eventually put out a cd collection called A's and B's
	1:43am KP: Matt, just saw your Rascals comment. This was a big broadway production of reunion of original lineup. It was produced by Steve Van Zandt. And Eddie Brigati easily steals the show
	1:45am b: Why had I never heard that Phil Seymour track? Solid, solid power pop. Another one buried by a backward-thinking record company (or one going broke) I suppose. Good stuff.
	1:45am Matt from Springfield: Thanks Julie and KP! I once saw Felix Cavaliere on a package tour, incidentally.
	1:48am Joe McG: @b: Actually, that was the b-side of his biggest hit, "Precious to Me," which was Top 30 or Top 20 or something like that.
	1:49am b: Yeah, ok, I sure remember Precious to Me. Another long-list b-side then. Nice!
	1:49am KP: In Va? My in-laws were with us and prob saw same show in Alexandria area.
	1:51am Matt from Springfield: @KP: Yes, although at Wolf Trap.
	1:54am Julie: Joe your Singles File is always awesome.
	1:55am b: Joe, have you ever heard Conley's tribute to Otis Redding? b-side of his Obladi Oblada.
	1:55am KP: That's it. They are the rulers of the package tours .
	1:56am Joe McG: @Julie: Thanks! @b: I have, b! I kinda thought about playing it next to the Wilson Pickett one, but that's too calculated for Single File!
	1:56am Matt from Springfield: Do you like sweet soul music? Arthur Conley does, and so do I.
	1:57am KP: Don't think I've ever Arthur Conley outside of the obvious. Good one Joe.
	1:58am KP: He just compared himself to Otis Redding! That takes hutzpah, as we say on LI.
	1:59am b: Otis was Conley's mentor. He's givin' the man his props.
	2:02am KP: He should have been his successor. Tremendous talent.
	2:03am b: I reached into MY box of 45s randomly to see what came up and how it would measure up. Ricky Nelson's version of "I Got a Woman." Joe rules. :-)
	2:03am KP: b: also I didn't know that. Thanks.
	2:06am Matt from Springfield: Joe rules! And anyone with a box of 45s also rules! :)
	2:06am b: @Joe: A little cheese goes well with most things. @KP: Always happy to serve in whatever humble way my trivial brain may fit! Gnite all, late here in the midsouth.
	2:07am Julie: I love that old bell label, the silver
	2:07am purpuraj: havent been around in a while, but Im happy to be back! onward!
	2:10am Matt from Springfield: G'nite b! Onward, and UPWARD purpuraj!
	2:11am amEdeo: Goodnight everybodies. I will see you in my dreams.
	2:12am KP: He stopped loving her Friday.
	2:13am Matt from Springfield: amEdeo dreams on - as does Lily! I'll pass by you later under sleep, good night!
	2:13am KP: This time he's over her for good.
	2:14am Matt from Springfield: @KP: Doug Schulkind said that "he stopped living here today" I also like Waylon the best of those, but George J. is not to be forgotten!
	2:15am Matt from Springfield: I also like Johnny Paycheck's 'tude and well written country songs. RIP to him as well.
	2:16am amEdeo (in dreams): seeeeee youuuu theeereeeee
	2:17am Joe McG: Hey, purpuraj! Sleep well, amEdeo! @Matt: Yes, I agree, Paycheck was uniquely gifted.
	2:20am Matt from Springfield: "Where All Good Daddies Go" is a tender classic a lot of people might not know he did. Thanks for making it a Father's Day regular around here!
	2:20am KP: People can have favorites but really as a country singer no one's close to Jones. I was in Nashville when He stopped loving her first hit. It was absolutely everywhere. It was the last great country song and maybe the end of the genre.
	2:25am Joe McG: No, KP, I wouldn't go that far, but it sure must have been a doozy.
	2:27am Matt from Springfield: To no one's surprise, Nashville radio has been playing nothing but No-Show this weekend.
	2:29am Joe McG: Is that right, Matt? That's nice!
	2:32am Matt from Springfield: Yeah, "Almost Persuaded"! @Joe: I heard a news item on that--maybe Classical isn't, but come on! They should be hip enough to realize that this stuff is "future Classical" music from Nashville, and deserves a tribute! :)
	2:34am Joe McG: I just watched that video that George did with his daughter and I thought the song was kind of touching.
	2:34am KP: Joe, play Radio Lover but don't follow the example of the DJ in the song.
	2:36am Matt from Springfield: I once heard a George J. song on Willie's Roadhouse sirius channel, where the narrator is saddened by the death of Elvis, and since he just broke up with his girl he pours whiskey in a Flintstones glass. The tagline: "Yabba dabba do / The King is gone / And so are you!" a country breakup song, Elvis tribute AND novelty chorus all in one! Why it took them 30 years to give him a Kennedy Center Honor for that is criminal!! ;)
	2:36am Joe McG: @KP: Ha ha! I'm just going to do one more, I think. I've played a few faves. I'll leave the big tributes to others.
	2:37am KP: I saw Garth Brook's first performance on Nashville Now. I thought this guy is going to be huge and he just killed country music.
	2:37am Joe McG: @Matt: Well, I could play "Yabba Dabba Do" if you really want me to, but....no, maybe not!
	2:40am Matt from Springfield: Only if you have it, Joe! But even if you don't, it's well worth mentioning, so I encourage others to seek it out!
	2:40am KP: I have to go, great stuff Joe. See ya Matt
	2:40am Matt from Springfield: Good night KP! See ya around!
	2:44am Julie: Is this the southern Stephen Wright?
	2:55am Matt from Springfield: Wow, a great Lee Hazlewood style! A more "mainstream" type of country of the early 60s, thanks Joe (and Light in the Attic, as usual)!
	2:57am Joe McG: Goodnight, everybody! Thanks for listening!
	👻 2:57am 12539: Thank you, Joe.
	2:59am Matt from Springfield: All right! Many thanks Joe! Have a good night (and great week!) everyone!
