	3:32pm Steve-O: @Teri Olins: (P.S. are you in the British Isles somewhere? =) )
	♥ 3:32pm Mike East: I won't say I don't miss terre...I do. I will say that the DJ's she tends to get to fill in are some of the best fill in DJ's on this station. Present company included.

	3:34pm CTEmpress: Hey Todd: keep 'em coming on strong!
	3:34pm glenn: thanks evan. from the accu playlist it appears like chris m. is the only person to have played them.
	3:38pm bealonee sandwich: @eld Thanks for that. The question of the photo, Ace of Cups, was killing me. Interesting wiki read.
	♥ 3:38pm efd: I did a "starts with" search and found a few others have given them a spin, including Miss Terre T herself. Looks like there was a a CD collection released about 10 years ago.
	3:40pm glenn: checkerlads are from regina, apparently.
	3:42pm glenn: jam.canoe.ca...
	3:47pm Sissophonic Cheryl: Teri, cottage pie and champagne? My kinda meal! Wish I was listening with you guys, miss you!!
	3:48pm Sissophonic Cheryl: Todd O Phonic, Mike Sin said New Years Paris tv video 1969 was like combo of Playboy After Dark and Laugh In! Dancing in my pajamas and slipper sox to Baby Ray!
	3:54pm Sissophonic Cheryl: You felt the pressure! I am so tough on you.
	3:56pm Listener Jumpy in Brooklyn: Ah, my favorite Beatles song!
	♥ 3:58pm Gaylord Fields: @Teri: I hope Todd-o-phonic didn't curdle your creme with his wisecrack about Ben. (Also, hi!)
	3:58pm CTEmpress: Back when they were young and hungry hungry Beatles!
	4:00pm Brez: A cornucopia of over-the-top tip-top tunes, Todd!
	4:01pm glenn: jeez, there are probably about a hundred bands who were referred to as the american beatles.
	4:03pm Listener Jumpy in Brooklyn: That's also my favorite Cherckerlads songs!
	4:03pm Marmalade Kitty: McCartney had a great rocknroll voice shame he wasted it on sloppy ballads!
	4:04pm ?: Eclect - o - phonic playlist today !
	4:05pm Elliott Simon: yeah but only one called the american beetles
	4:05pm joe harris: Dreams of yogi is a song by the eat in sofla.
	♥ 4:06pm Gaylord Fields: Shea Stadium vesion of I'm Down even surpasses the record, with fantastic elbow keyboard playing by J.W. Lennon. It's a rare glimpse iof the top-tier live band they must have been back in the days when they could actually hear themselves onstage.
	4:06pm 8track: sorry ? = 8track 4:04
	4:06pm slade: Texting while driving to say this show rocks.
	4:07pm Elliott Simon: actually they couldn't hear themselves at Shea and they were basically farting around
	4:07pm Frank Above: Ah, I tuned in just in time!
	♥ 4:09pm herb.nyc: (2 weeks later) that EQUALS song was indeed v.g.; i'll look for this comp cd i have, somewhere. (Super Bowl tickets giveaway during Rob W's show? i googled, and see there's a new headliner for that halftime show: Décimas: Music and Poetry of Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic)
	4:10pm Teri Olins: Raising a glass to you, Sissophonic!
	♥ 4:10pm Gaylord Fields: @Elliott Simon: My comment about the days when they actually could hear themselves onstage seems to address that, don't you think?
	4:11pm Elliott Simon: yeah yeah.....just commenting....shame there arent really any good concert tapes fo them say in Liverpool r Hamburg
	4:13pm Elliott Simon: the early pics and boots definitely have a punkish flavor to them in a ted sort of way
	4:16pm Elliott Simon: diggin the Nazz...been a long time.....got any movin sidewalks?
	4:17pm Frank Above: One of my fave Nazz songs.
	4:18pm Teri Olins: @Gaylord if Todd will insist on playing "manly" vocals…
	♥ 4:20pm Gaylord Fields: @Elliott Simon: All there seems to be pre-Beatlemania other than Star-Club in 1962 (The Milkshakes owe their existence to the Beatles' version of "Shimmy Like Kate") is the Cavern footage of "Some Other Guy" and "Kansas City." Well, that's why God gave us Bambi Kino! See them on February 8th at Union Hall, if you're local.
	♥ 4:22pm Gaylord Fields: @Teri: Todd even plays "manly" Paul McCartney vocals, FFS!
	4:24pm Elliott Simon: @Gaylord ..the Star Club suffers from lots of things but some of the brilliance shines through....and there isn't any video of the Star Club..is there?
	4:26pm glenn: john mayall???? huh.
	4:27pm Frank Above: Nice
	4:28pm james: You timed the 420 songs perfectly.
	4:28pm Listener Jumpy in Brooklyn: My favorite John Mayall song, too.
	4:29pm Elliott Simon: @Gaylord there was a color newsclip of them in England on you tube for awhile that was good dont know if it is still there
	♥ 4:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: Oh yeah, Rob is going to India for a month and Lamin is the fill-in person until he returns. I believe that's what he mentioned on his show.
	4:31pm Elliott Simon: Clapton is a blues brother
	♥ 4:33pm pacific standard simon: Aaah... a loaf of wine, a jug of bread, and Todd...
	♥ 4:34pm Gaylord Fields: @Elliott: Thanks! That footage slipped my mind. It's debated whether it's from '61 or '62.
	4:34pm Elliott Simon: @Gaylord OK tc gtg shovel some snow
	4:34pm glenn: hey, jimmy page produced i'm your witch doctor. i didn't know.
	4:36pm Jeezy: Oh wow, I missed "I'm Down"? Does everyone know that was recorded on the SAME DAY Paul recorded "Yesterday" which was... wait for it.... HIS TWENTY FIRST BIRTHDAY!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!"!:!?!:!:!::!"!!!!!
	4:41pm David Shortell: June 18, 1963? I don't think so.
	♥ 4:43pm Gaylord Fields: @glenn: Nice job by Page, but he's no David Seville. @Jeezy: Actually, it was recorded just short of his 23rd birthday. I would venture to guess he crooned "Yesterday" first and then commenced to shredding his tonsils on "I'm Down."
	4:44pm glenn: The track was recorded at Abbey Road Studios on 14 June 1965, immediately following the taping of "I'm Down", and four days before McCartney's 23rd birthday. There are conflicting accounts of how the song was recorded, the most quoted one being that McCartney recorded the song by himself, without bothering to involve the other band members.
	4:46pm glenn: well, i personally don't go along with the "jimmy page is the greatest guitarist ever" hype, but he was a truly great producer.
	♥ 4:46pm Gaylord Fields: That's insane! Paul must have a cast-iron throat.
	4:49pm Jeezy: Crap, I'm so ashamed! Thanks Gaylord!
	4:50pm Jeezy: And Glenn.
	♥ 4:53pm pacific standard simon: @glenn - I'll go as far as to agree that Pagey was a welcome addition to any recording session, as a guitarist.
	♥ 4:54pm pacific standard simon: This Vibrators 45 has always been a welcome addition to any jukebox.
	4:55pm fleep: I'll agree. I'm agreeable.
	4:56pm Frank Above: Great minor key song here.
	4:59pm fleep: They recorded at Dick Cheney's house? Wow.
	♥ 5:02pm pacific standard simon: Great news, Todd!
	5:05pm glenn: "Clarabella" is a pop song composed by Frank Pingatore and recorded by the Jodimars (a group made of former members of Bill Haley & His Comets) in 1956. Today, it is best known for being recorded by the Beatles for the radio programme "Pop Go the Beatles" on 2 July 1963, which was broadcast on the 16th of that month. It was released commercially on compact disc much later, on the 1994 compilation album Live at the BBC, although years earlier a similar rendition by Billy Preston (who would later work with the Beatles on their later recordings) was performed on a 1965 episode of Shindig!. In 2003 the White Stripes recorded a performance of the song live in concert.
	5:08pm Frank Above: YEAH! Great Pretty Things song and album!
	5:13pm Eric: Todophonic frickin' killin' it!!!!!!!!!!!
	5:14pm sinner: Killer show......dancing around or chores...and we can go outside cause it's 62 degrees here in Alabammy!

	5:23pm Ashley Morey: Action packed set! Justin Angelo and I have been loving it!!
	5:24pm james: We need a 520 bump!
	5:24pm Ashley Morey: Glitch in the app... Or it's just so awesome I had to comment three times! You decide!
	5:27pm buzz hagstrom: Good job Todd o phonic. Just don't ruin it with anything by David Essex!
	5:27pm P-90: @T-o-p T: Absolutely top-shelf, top-flight, top gear show. And a stellar comments board. You have done great by Ms. T.
	5:29pm fleep: I agree!
	5:32pm P-90: @Ashley M.: I love "action-packed" as a description of a playlist
	5:32pm Elliott Simon: cool show.....any "Boys" the band from England not US?
	5:33pm Elliott Simon: definitely Jem order through Trouser Press
	5:35pm BTH: FYI- Travis Jackson, owner/founder of Windian records was killed by an out of control BMW SUV last week while working at his construction job.
	5:38pm moparlarry: Great version of security, but i'd also nominate the Lyres cover of security right up there as a good "white" Otis cover. Godamn excellent show- I made meatballs while listen. From the same animal as the marathon "beef goulash" It's post time!
	♥ 5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Home ! ...E. Smith - Kickin' 'tar Brother !!
	5:40pm CTEmpress: Mopar Larry!! Hello!!
	5:45pm Elliott Simon: oh man....I'll be here next week just to unclassify Suzie...not having them this week is soda pressing
	♥ 5:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Gaylord: I love the other Beatles saying they thot John had actually flipped a bit @ Shea Stadium - I think the 1st Stadium-sized RawkGig - &/or the largest so far then - altho' Paul also said John relieved the tension w/ his antic humor...
	♥ 5:49pm pacific standard simon: Here you go, Rabbit.
	5:49pm Frank Above: Better than the original, and I'm a massive Who fan.
	♥ 5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - no Beatle footage before 'Some Other Guy' @ Cavern Liverpool has ever been know to exist; I think that was Ringo's 1st official night w/ them - or damn close to it - ??...wait - '61?2 footage - Performing - ?? 'Yesterday' was effectively Solo SirMacca. w/ Strings. More Page on Wh♂cover of 'Circles' - I think is established - ??...
	5:52pm buzz hagstrom: Keep on spinnin !
	♥ 5:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...now - Frank...it is good...
	♥ 5:54pm pacific standard simon: Nah, these guys should call themselves The Rolling Abbas.
	5:55pm moparlarry: Empress! Hey!
	♥ 5:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Lennon: 'The jism had gone out by the time we got to America!'...'That whole early Live period is undocumented'... - Last I checked the 1963 Copyright Renewal stuff was still on iTunes !...Opinions - ?!?!...
	5:58pm james: Where's. My lammy! Where's my lammy!
	5:59pm moparlarry: Kick ass show Todd o phonic!
	5:59pm Frank Above: Thank you! Great show today Todd. Looking forward to next week's show.
	6:00pm Steve-O: Thanks, Todd! Great show today. =)
	6:00pm glenn: thanks todd. another great show.
	6:00pm james: 'Bad ass!
	6:01pm P-90: @T-o-p Todd: Thanks again, this will make a deliciouls archive play as well...a keeper!
	♥ 6:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's good & worthy. Not better : ( - disagree - Wh♂'s is more vertiginous like being intoxicated & heavier...

	♥ 4:10pm Gaylord Fields: @Elliott Simon: My comment about the days when they actually could hear themselves onstage seems to address that, don't you think?
	4:11pm Elliott Simon: yeah yeah.....just commenting....shame there arent really any good concert tapes fo them say in Liverpool r Hamburg
	4:13pm Elliott Simon: the early pics and boots definitely have a punkish flavor to them in a ted sort of way
	4:16pm Elliott Simon: diggin the Nazz...been a long time.....got any movin sidewalks?
	4:17pm Frank Above: One of my fave Nazz songs.
	4:18pm Teri Olins: @Gaylord if Todd will insist on playing "manly" vocals…
	♥ 4:20pm Gaylord Fields: @Elliott Simon: All there seems to be pre-Beatlemania other than Star-Club in 1962 (The Milkshakes owe their existence to the Beatles' version of "Shimmy Like Kate") is the Cavern footage of "Some Other Guy" and "Kansas City." Well, that's why God gave us Bambi Kino! See them on February 8th at Union Hall, if you're local.
	♥ 4:22pm Gaylord Fields: @Teri: Todd even plays "manly" Paul McCartney vocals, FFS!
	4:24pm Elliott Simon: @Gaylord ..the Star Club suffers from lots of things but some of the brilliance shines through....and there isn't any video of the Star Club..is there?
	4:26pm glenn: john mayall???? huh.
	4:27pm Frank Above: Nice
	4:28pm james: You timed the 420 songs perfectly.
	4:28pm Listener Jumpy in Brooklyn: My favorite John Mayall song, too.
	4:29pm Elliott Simon: @Gaylord there was a color newsclip of them in England on you tube for awhile that was good dont know if it is still there
	♥ 4:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: Oh yeah, Rob is going to India for a month and Lamin is the fill-in person until he returns. I believe that's what he mentioned on his show.
	4:31pm Elliott Simon: Clapton is a blues brother
	♥ 4:33pm pacific standard simon: Aaah... a loaf of wine, a jug of bread, and Todd...
	♥ 4:34pm Gaylord Fields: @Elliott: Thanks! That footage slipped my mind. It's debated whether it's from '61 or '62.
	4:34pm Elliott Simon: @Gaylord OK tc gtg shovel some snow
	4:34pm glenn: hey, jimmy page produced i'm your witch doctor. i didn't know.
	4:36pm Jeezy: Oh wow, I missed "I'm Down"? Does everyone know that was recorded on the SAME DAY Paul recorded "Yesterday" which was... wait for it.... HIS TWENTY FIRST BIRTHDAY!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!"!:!?!:!:!::!"!!!!!
	4:41pm David Shortell: June 18, 1963? I don't think so.
	♥ 4:43pm Gaylord Fields: @glenn: Nice job by Page, but he's no David Seville. @Jeezy: Actually, it was recorded just short of his 23rd birthday. I would venture to guess he crooned "Yesterday" first and then commenced to shredding his tonsils on "I'm Down."
	4:44pm glenn: The track was recorded at Abbey Road Studios on 14 June 1965, immediately following the taping of "I'm Down", and four days before McCartney's 23rd birthday. There are conflicting accounts of how the song was recorded, the most quoted one being that McCartney recorded the song by himself, without bothering to involve the other band members.
	4:46pm glenn: well, i personally don't go along with the "jimmy page is the greatest guitarist ever" hype, but he was a truly great producer.
	♥ 4:46pm Gaylord Fields: That's insane! Paul must have a cast-iron throat.
	4:49pm Jeezy: Crap, I'm so ashamed! Thanks Gaylord!
	4:50pm Jeezy: And Glenn.
	♥ 4:53pm pacific standard simon: @glenn - I'll go as far as to agree that Pagey was a welcome addition to any recording session, as a guitarist.
	♥ 4:54pm pacific standard simon: This Vibrators 45 has always been a welcome addition to any jukebox.
	4:55pm fleep: I'll agree. I'm agreeable.
	4:56pm Frank Above: Great minor key song here.
	4:59pm fleep: They recorded at Dick Cheney's house? Wow.
	♥ 5:02pm pacific standard simon: Great news, Todd!
	5:05pm glenn: "Clarabella" is a pop song composed by Frank Pingatore and recorded by the Jodimars (a group made of former members of Bill Haley & His Comets) in 1956. Today, it is best known for being recorded by the Beatles for the radio programme "Pop Go the Beatles" on 2 July 1963, which was broadcast on the 16th of that month. It was released commercially on compact disc much later, on the 1994 compilation album Live at the BBC, although years earlier a similar rendition by Billy Preston (who would later work with the Beatles on their later recordings) was performed on a 1965 episode of Shindig!. In 2003 the White Stripes recorded a performance of the song live in concert.
	5:08pm Frank Above: YEAH! Great Pretty Things song and album!

	♥ 5:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Gaylord: I love the other Beatles saying they thot John had actually flipped a bit @ Shea Stadium - I think the 1st Stadium-sized RawkGig - &/or the largest so far then - altho' Paul also said John relieved the tension w/ his antic humor...
	♥ 5:49pm pacific standard simon: Here you go, Rabbit.
	5:49pm Frank Above: Better than the original, and I'm a massive Who fan.
	♥ 5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - no Beatle footage before 'Some Other Guy' @ Cavern Liverpool has ever been know to exist; I think that was Ringo's 1st official night w/ them - or damn close to it - ??...wait - '61?2 footage - Performing - ?? 'Yesterday' was effectively Solo SirMacca. w/ Strings. More Page on Wh♂cover of 'Circles' - I think is established - ??...
