Listener comments!
9:03am : Good Saturday morning, Bob and fellow listeners!9:06am : Now that's given me an appetite...I think I'll leave before the bass solo9:14am : Ah, Everything is Everything, old NYC jazz-rock. Still have my LP. This is one of my fave cuts along with Witchi Tai To.🥁 9:23am : Hello Bob, is this Milltown Bros over twenty years old. Scheeeesh.🥁 9:29am : Good Morning all9:31am : Hello Bob & everyone!
Dig Seals and Croft and Fred and Neil🥁 9:35am : Brondesbury is a suburb of north west London near Kilburn. Useless fact No.459:36am : Dear TDK 60
only if you have effortless answer - what pre-amp must one get for a Technics turntable🥁 9:38am : Moisten forefinger and hold it in the wind.🥁 9:40am : Poco - Andy Breckman's favorite band9:45am : Hi Bob, sounding great! Who else was it played this recently...Clay i think🥁 9:46am : I'm liking this 70's country rock9:47am : Kris, I don't know. Looked online, there are some sites that may help. One is Turntable Lab.9:47am : Ah, but Clay didn't play the flip side; nice!9:48am : THANKS TDK very nice !9:49am : @Kris - no specific pre amp is necessary. I use a cheap old DJ mixer which has the preamp built in, and also allows me to pretend I'm mixing in the clubs. I'm sure you can find something on ebay or internetland, or you could go into Sam Ash/Guitar Center type store to their pro audio dept.9:59am : THANK YOU MIKE EAST AND TDK
this is wonderful ! here I go10:08am : It comes out like jell-o .10:11am : Love the Steely Dan story, Bob. Totally agree with your thoughts on this topic.10:12am : Kris - a phono-specific preamp actually IS needed, because vinyl recordings have RIAA equalization. If you want hear a record as the engineer intended, get a phono preamp. Dont worry - they are cheap - go to Needle Doctor for a big selection.10:12am : This song is way too funky!10:16am : Roger and the Gypsies were a real, legit band, featuring the great New Orleans guitarist Earl Stanley. Eddie Bo wasn't a member, but obviously he's featured on "Pass the Hatchet," which he produced and arranged.10:17am : thought this Bobby Bland at first10:20am : THANKS PJMcE !!!
I will do some studying to understand.
THANKS EVERYONE, didn't really expect such great response, should have remembered beautiful music = beautiful listeners10:21am : There's a coincidence - I'm playing the Detroit Cobras cover of "Hittin' On Nothin'" on my show this evening... Otherwise, this morning's show is fantastic, as expected, Bob.10:26am : P.S. To hear the Cobras' version - one of their more faithful covers - is to hear the source of vocalist Rachel Nagy's formidable persona, the latter very much representing a straight line drawn from Irma to the present.10:31am : Re-read previous comment, didn't intend "Otherwise..." as a criticism, by the way. It's still early where I am in California.10:41am : Little Buck is the great NOLA R&B/blues guitarist Little Buck Sinegal, who's still gigging, and still tours as a member of Buckwheat Zydeco's band.10:41am : Bob Sounds Like Youve Got Frog In The Throat!10:45am : Thanks for the nod, Bob!10:48am : "Better Get Up" could be my weekend theme song.10:58am : I believe that the "Reading" in the Sundays album title is actually pronounced like Otis Redding, and I believe it's a reference to the band's hometown of Reading.11:01am : feel like i left this comment before, but...
i rode my bike to Wall to Wall Sound and Video buy that Sundays album on cassette. still a great album.
