	10:38am oks: YES!! Ottawan !
	10:39am Joe McG: Everyone: You're OK, you're smart, you're in!

	10:45am Will: Bruce Foxton, we hardly knew ye.
	10:45am Uncle Michael: What an amazing cover. Go Bruce!
	10:45am Turnstone: Bruce Foxton had a minor hit here in the UK with a song about the Elephant Man.
	10:46am Jeff: Really, that's how Amber Waves finishes? I found myself on the streets of LA. The end.
	👻 10:46am doctorjazz: Like this 25 or 6 to 4 cover. Maybe I'll figure out what it means on of these days...
	10:46am tomasz.: it's all gone sort of Matt Warwick in here
	10:47am Joe McG: @Jeff: Psyche-out, huh?
	10:50am Jeff: Like Lucy with the football (or Ted with his pig).
	10:51am βrian: A duet!
	10:52am Joe McG: @Turnstone: How interesting!
	10:54am herb.nyc: ooh, this "spiders & snakes" takes me back to wmca 57am music radio, along with "instant karma" and "spirit in the sky". as for Marion's german chanson, there's a german film fest at the Sunshine Theater on Houston st, nyc, now.
	10:55am Dominick: ok!
	👻 10:58am Hughie Considine: Indeed, Herb: it was the golden age of the novelty song! Dr. Hook! The Streak! Mr. Jaws!
	👻 11:00am Brian in UK: Hey Joe and start the weekers.
	11:02am Joe McG: Hey Brian, hope the afternoon is going well for you!
	11:03am Dominick: NOoooooooo!
	11:05am bobdoesthings: ASMR surface noise
	11:06am bobdoesthings: AH! don't do that to me joe!
	11:08am MD: The Never ending cold!!!!! I and my Wife know it well...For weeks now!!!
	11:13am Marc Francis: I thought Amber Waves was a porn star name? From Boogie Nights maybe? Or my mind might just be in the gutter on this beautiful spring morning...
	11:14am alanj: Good morning. Barron Linden Trump.
	11:15am Dean: Barry Lyndon is one of the few movies I enjoy at all, precisely because Ryan O'Neal can't act. Kubrick knew well how to divorce film from the thespian arts. But a 50-piece orchestra playing the soundtrack? Didn't The Chieftains contribute to the recorded one?
	11:15am βrian: Can you kindly give away some tickets for venues in Wisconsin?
	11:17am βrian: @Marc Francis: You called it: www.imdb.com...
	11:17am coelacanth∅: good morning Joe and all
	11:19am Sem Chumbo: Hey, coel. Good to see ya.
	11:19am Anonymous Coward: Richard Thompson?
	11:20am Anonymous Coward: Richard Thompson!
	11:20am herb.nyc: liz is RIGHT, plz have more ticket give-aways. I called but the phone was busy. I actually didn't totally wanna go but if you answered, joe, I was gonna say "hey, I'm listening. do more tix, plz. now give tix to the next caller".
	👻 11:22am doctorjazz: Another Richard and Linda Track-is that them doing "...Bright Lights"? Love these 2 (and the solo stuff after the split).
	11:22am Marc Francis: @βrian: Ahh. Thanks! I thought so.
	11:22am coelacanth∅: hey Sem -likewise!
	11:22am Joe McG: @Brian: Ha ha ha! I'd love to. @herb: Congrats to Pedro, who won the tickets. I would have liked to heard "Time the Avenger" live, I must admit.
	11:23am Mick: This Richard and Linda is great! Thanks, and happy birthday Richard!
	11:23am Anonymous Coward: A Thompson 2-fer! How about a triple play with "THe New St. George"?
	11:23am βrian: Kind of an interesting transistor radio quality to Linda's voice.
	👻 11:23am doctorjazz: Oh, I missed that it is RT's birthday, happy Birthday!
	11:24am annie: whew!!!! made it for the last half hour... glad to be here!
	11:25am bigkafka: slayer cover???
	11:25am Joe McG: Hey Annie! @bigkafka: Ha ha! :)
	11:27am Joe McG: OK, just one more: The Most Depressing Song Ever Written soon to follow.
	11:27am herb.nyc: i dogsat for a co-worker by staying in her apt for 2 nights. as thanks, she asked "i'll get a record for you" and as i read so much about "shoot out the lights", i asked for that. this was 1984ish. so glad i dld.
	11:28am Bronwyn Bishop: so cool! thanks joe!
	11:30am herb.nyc: most depressing song? (how'd that most deadly joke go, via monty python?)
	👻 11:31am doctorjazz: This is definitely up there with the most depressing songs-Withered and Died competes (RT has quite a collection of them...)
	👻 11:32am doctorjazz: Richard doesn't sound quite like I'm used to...
	11:32am herb.nyc: i learned of this depressing song via an Elvis Costello concert. i think 1 or 2 people committed suicide at song's end.
	11:34am Joe McG: @docjazz: Yes, Richard is not exactly known as Mr. Uplift.
	11:34am herb.nyc: for upbeat, b'vegan website gave a link to the new New Pornographers record. i may just hafta go there now...
	11:34am Ike: Great song. Even the audience's applause sounded depressed, heh.
	👻 11:35am doctorjazz: Now, THIS is cheery!
	11:35am alanj: Happy Birthday Richard Thompson there is nothing to live for
	11:36am Joe McG: @alanj: Ha ha ha! Somehow he slogs through.
	11:36am TR In MI: Richard and Linda Thompson and the SmileTime Fun Brigade
	11:37am alanj: it's all good. The ever-closing circle of life.
	11:37am Joe McG: @TR: Ha ha, I don't know why they didn't think of it. They DID call one LP "Sunnyvista"!
	11:42am Ian: thank you SO much for the RT set. I'm a hardcore fan, but the Guidlford set moved me as if it were brand new. There's lots at the end of the rainbow.
	11:43am crateslinger: I did it Joe. Thanks for your help. You are a patient, patient man. Everybody.... this guy, this is the guy. Talk to you next time I lose my credit card!
	11:45am Joe McG: You bet, Ian, my pleasure! @crateslinger: Happy to help! Thanks for helping FMU!
	11:45am pantz: I'm reading Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman and your music today is perfect ambiance. Thanks, Joe!
	11:47am Mick: This is a warped birthday party, even for RT. Great set!
	11:47am Greg from ZONE 5: John Henry! Word on the street is that he was a steel-drivin' man…
	11:47am frozen_peas: I will never get sick of John Henry songs.
	11:48am Joe McG: @Greg: Ha!
	11:50am annie: yeah, JMcG, i'm ready to start my new payment stint. emails coming out soon or can i just call you?
	11:53am alanj: Thank you so much Joe I always wish your show could keep going. That George Barnes was sick. And excited to have my new Richard Thompson workout mix all set.
	11:54am Ian: PS there is an RT Pretenders link. His son in law James Walbourne is the Pretenders lead guitarist. And a very good one too. He is also in a folk duo called Sthe Rails with his wife Kami (daughter of Richard and Linda).
	11:54am Liam in Asheville: Great show today, Joe.
	11:54am Sem Chumbo: Joe, you brought the sun out here with today's show and gave me a chance to uncover the garlic. The garlic say thanks! See ya next time.

	11:57am drr: oh yeah, that's where I've heard this.
	11:57am a listener: I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Dolphins - A song about a person trying to find a porpoise to life. Great show as always Joe!
	11:59am tomasz.: you're on probation for that pun, a listener

	10:33am Todd-o-phonic Todd: Nice way to start the week Joe!
	10:33am PKNY: No Chuck Barris, no Gene Gene the Dancing Machine.
	10:33am Planet Tyler: Okay, it's way past time to favourite this show episode
	10:36am tomasz.: i like any song where the pulse continually switches back and forward between swing and straight, and this is doing it well
	10:38am Joe McG: Glad you're enjoying the show, Planet Tyler! Hey, KP, PKNY, Todd!
	10:38am oks: YES!! Ottawan !
	10:39am Joe McG: Everyone: You're OK, you're smart, you're in!

	10:40am bobdoesthings: <3
	10:40am Turnstone: This Ottawan song is the business
	10:45am Will: Bruce Foxton, we hardly knew ye.
	10:45am Uncle Michael: What an amazing cover. Go Bruce!
	10:45am Turnstone: Bruce Foxton had a minor hit here in the UK with a song about the Elephant Man.
	10:46am Jeff: Really, that's how Amber Waves finishes? I found myself on the streets of LA. The end.
	👻 10:46am doctorjazz: Like this 25 or 6 to 4 cover. Maybe I'll figure out what it means on of these days...
	10:46am tomasz.: it's all gone sort of Matt Warwick in here
	10:47am Joe McG: @Jeff: Psyche-out, huh?
	10:50am Jeff: Like Lucy with the football (or Ted with his pig).
	10:51am βrian: A duet!
	10:52am Joe McG: @Turnstone: How interesting!
	10:54am herb.nyc: ooh, this "spiders & snakes" takes me back to wmca 57am music radio, along with "instant karma" and "spirit in the sky". as for Marion's german chanson, there's a german film fest at the Sunshine Theater on Houston st, nyc, now.
	10:55am Dominick: ok!
	👻 10:58am Hughie Considine: Indeed, Herb: it was the golden age of the novelty song! Dr. Hook! The Streak! Mr. Jaws!
	👻 11:00am Brian in UK: Hey Joe and start the weekers.
	11:02am Joe McG: Hey Brian, hope the afternoon is going well for you!
	11:03am Dominick: NOoooooooo!
	11:05am bobdoesthings: ASMR surface noise
	11:06am bobdoesthings: AH! don't do that to me joe!
	11:08am MD: The Never ending cold!!!!! I and my Wife know it well...For weeks now!!!
	11:13am Marc Francis: I thought Amber Waves was a porn star name? From Boogie Nights maybe? Or my mind might just be in the gutter on this beautiful spring morning...
	11:14am alanj: Good morning. Barron Linden Trump.
	11:15am Dean: Barry Lyndon is one of the few movies I enjoy at all, precisely because Ryan O'Neal can't act. Kubrick knew well how to divorce film from the thespian arts. But a 50-piece orchestra playing the soundtrack? Didn't The Chieftains contribute to the recorded one?
	11:15am βrian: Can you kindly give away some tickets for venues in Wisconsin?
	11:17am βrian: @Marc Francis: You called it: www.imdb.com...

	11:20am Anonymous Coward: Richard Thompson!
	11:20am herb.nyc: liz is RIGHT, plz have more ticket give-aways. I called but the phone was busy. I actually didn't totally wanna go but if you answered, joe, I was gonna say "hey, I'm listening. do more tix, plz. now give tix to the next caller".
	👻 11:22am doctorjazz: Another Richard and Linda Track-is that them doing "...Bright Lights"? Love these 2 (and the solo stuff after the split).
	11:22am Marc Francis: @βrian: Ahh. Thanks! I thought so.
	11:22am coelacanth∅: hey Sem -likewise!
	11:22am Joe McG: @Brian: Ha ha ha! I'd love to. @herb: Congrats to Pedro, who won the tickets. I would have liked to heard "Time the Avenger" live, I must admit.
	11:23am Mick: This Richard and Linda is great! Thanks, and happy birthday Richard!
	11:23am Anonymous Coward: A Thompson 2-fer! How about a triple play with "THe New St. George"?
	11:23am βrian: Kind of an interesting transistor radio quality to Linda's voice.
	👻 11:23am doctorjazz: Oh, I missed that it is RT's birthday, happy Birthday!

	👻 11:32am doctorjazz: Richard doesn't sound quite like I'm used to...
	11:32am herb.nyc: i learned of this depressing song via an Elvis Costello concert. i think 1 or 2 people committed suicide at song's end.
	11:34am Joe McG: @docjazz: Yes, Richard is not exactly known as Mr. Uplift.
	11:34am herb.nyc: for upbeat, b'vegan website gave a link to the new New Pornographers record. i may just hafta go there now...
	11:34am Ike: Great song. Even the audience's applause sounded depressed, heh.
	👻 11:35am doctorjazz: Now, THIS is cheery!
	11:35am alanj: Happy Birthday Richard Thompson there is nothing to live for
	11:36am Joe McG: @alanj: Ha ha ha! Somehow he slogs through.
	11:36am TR In MI: Richard and Linda Thompson and the SmileTime Fun Brigade
	11:37am alanj: it's all good. The ever-closing circle of life.

	11:47am Greg from ZONE 5: John Henry! Word on the street is that he was a steel-drivin' man…
	11:47am frozen_peas: I will never get sick of John Henry songs.
	11:48am Joe McG: @Greg: Ha!
	11:50am annie: yeah, JMcG, i'm ready to start my new payment stint. emails coming out soon or can i just call you?
	11:53am alanj: Thank you so much Joe I always wish your show could keep going. That George Barnes was sick. And excited to have my new Richard Thompson workout mix all set.
	11:54am Ian: PS there is an RT Pretenders link. His son in law James Walbourne is the Pretenders lead guitarist. And a very good one too. He is also in a folk duo called Sthe Rails with his wife Kami (daughter of Richard and Linda).
	11:54am Liam in Asheville: Great show today, Joe.
