	3:40pm Irwin: He's the anti-Tatum.
	👻 3:41pm Alison Porchnik: I'd wish I were listening to this in a swank hotel lounge right now. But listening at my desk will do. Better than not listening.
	3:42pm Michael 98145: thanks for all this great jazz, Irwin
	3:43pm Laura L: Hi AP--me too. And don't you think Goddess Irena's buffalo is sucking in the gut to try to look fit and slender?
	👻 3:43pm Alison Porchnik: Totally anti-Tatum. (But there is a time and a place for Tatum.)
	👻 3:44pm Alison Porchnik: If I were the buffalo I'd be sucking it in too.
	3:44pm Michael 98145: i think the bison is just startled
	3:44pm Irwin: Never been a fan of Tatum. He's a show-off.
	3:45pm Dean: Same for Oscar Peterson?
	3:46pm Dominick: Very nice!
	3:46pm Parq: I like Tatum a taste I inherited from my late dad, but I completely get what Irwin means.
	3:46pm Dean: Michel Petrucciani? I'm a fan.
	3:46pm glenn: aunty tatum o'neal.
	3:46pm Anonymous Coward: @ Alison Porchnik: "You're like New York left-wing, intellectual, Central Park West, Brandeis University, socialist summer camps and the father with the Ben Shahn drawings,,,"?
	3:47pm Dean: Really, Liberace was a show-off. That was the point.
	👻 3:47pm Alison Porchnik: @AC actually I'm the exact opposite, except for the left-wing intellectual Jewish part.
	3:50pm Parq: I completely lost my heart to the Carol Kane character in that Woody Allen movie. I would have my doubts about any man who didn't.
	3:50pm Irwin: The title of this Maria Taylor album is dedicated to Alison Porchnik.
	3:50pm Megaroni: Aww, The Mighty Sparrow is probably just nervous, I'm sure he will love you
	3:50pm Anonymous Coward: @AP: got it
	👻 3:53pm Alison Porchnik: Thanks Irwin, you remembered!
	3:54pm Irwin: Beach Boys outtakes and rough mixes are sometimes better than the released versions.
	👻 3:55pm Alison Porchnik: Mike Love sounds like a wannabe hippie
	3:55pm Dominick: Looking forward to listening to this.
	3:57pm zopa: jimmy page is a showoff
	3:58pm The Oscar: This plays like the opposite of "Hot Topic" by Le Tigre.
	3:59pm Parq: Already on my click-star list.
	3:59pm joe mulligan: this Led Zeppelin song sounds like it could be a cover of Wesley Willis
	4:00pm geezerette: this is so funny.
	4:00pm The Oscar: If I hadn't already starred it, "I love Satan too!" would have done it.
	4:00pm Whosondephone: Are they praising Led Zeppelin or mocking them?
	👻 4:05pm Alison Porchnik: The Free Design!
	👻 4:07pm Alison Porchnik: I love this song because kites really are fun. This is the only song about that as far as I'm aware.
	4:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Being For the Benefit of FMU. If you had to pick a track to characterize the 60s - you could do worse...
	4:08pm the garden: Kites are fun.
	4:08pm The Oscar: They take a bold position, and they stand by it!
	4:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...bossanova I surpose - Tropicaliaeeesh...
	4:09pm the garden: Lincoln city, Oregon is the kite capital of the USA. It is an incredibly mystical cloudy cheap sea town. There are little stores that sell kites. I paid 100 a night for a room with floor to ceiling windows facing the Pacific. There are seals on the beach.
	4:09pm Parq: Has there been a bio-docum of the Free Design? I would stand in line all afternoon to see that.
	4:10pm zopa: @alison- Let's go fly a kite from Mary Poppins?
	4:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Orange Sunshine Pop...like 'Yellow Submarine' '68 was perfectly preschool & acidfried all @ once...
	4:11pm the garden: Only a few seas, not a conglomerate of seas, they don't monopolize the beach nor do they play monopoly on the beach. Whales also stop by from time to another time
	4:11pm the garden: *seals not seas
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...when Zappa was always a butt of jokes about weeeeirdoes...
	4:12pm geezerette: that Love Boat / Love American Style sound.
	4:13pm jan: Gosh, this happy chirpy cowsills music gains nothing in the 40 years... Irwin, your delvings into artists of Al Kooper and similar are by contrast much more compelling.
	4:13pm mr mcfeely: Seas the day
	4:13pm glenn: Seals = Pod, Bob, Harem, Herd, Rookery
	4:15pm Irwin: From 300-lb R&B/jazz producer Teddy Reig's wiki bio: Though Reig was supportive of musicians, he was legendarily hot-tempered, argumentative and belligerent with those in (and out of) the business. Because of his height, girth, and propensity for yelling loudly, he could be extremely intimidating and often prevailed in getting what he wanted. "The only time I saw Teddy scared was when we were mixing the Basie Beatles album out in California at the TTG Studios," recalled MGM-Verve producer Peter Spargo. "All of a sudden, Frank Zappa walked in. Teddy took one look at him and ran out of the room saying, 'What is that?' Zappa just wanted to hear [Basie's] band, but he looked so weird that Teddy didn't know what to make of him!"
	4:15pm the garden: Also along with seals there was an old couch on the beach. Also, there was driftwood smoldering, sending up smoke signals
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Zap !
	👻 4:16pm Alison Porchnik: @zopa - I meant a pop song. I am sure there are other songs, and children's songs, about kites. But how many pop songs?
	4:16pm I.M. Peaking: The old thumb on the reel flange. Psych 101
	4:17pm Irwin: I'm thinking of doing remixes or mashups with these MF commercials and replacing them in the shows. I'm so BORED with them.
	👻 4:18pm rrg: Like seven years ago. Yes.
	4:18pm the garden: I got stoned and made a sculpture in the sand. When the weed hit I saw the sculpture as a 2 dimensional face, so I went to work resculpting the whole thing. Then I flew the kite way up high. There were no danger trees so me and the kite felt very happy, like Coca Cola with cocaine.
	4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: en.wikipedia.org... ...gawdamn commercial radio...of all the Verve...
	👻 4:19pm rrg: "James Cotton is beautiful. But only one record to a customer, we like her just the way she is."
	4:20pm geezerette: heavy, heavy.
	4:21pm geezerette: m-aaaaaaaaaa-N
	4:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Richard Nixon really digs it.
	4:21pm berbo: "Women hate war. Oh dry up"
	4:22pm zopa: @alison ah. i see. you are right. with the exception of Kate Bush, I can't think if any either.
	4:22pm geezerette: cheap trick
	👻 4:23pm Alison Porchnik: So two pop songs (in English) about kites. Considering how fun kites are, that seems paltry to me. Compared to songs about driving, dancing, and sex, for example. Or even walking.
	4:23pm Suds Walsh (Tromboner): Ir, these shows are great little snapshots in time of a long gone flower powerish era. Makes me want to fish out my old Queen Anne's Lace LP on Coral.
	4:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: High as a Kate.
	4:24pm geezerette: go for Baroque.
	4:25pm Carmichael: I wish I could be a hepcat like Tom.
	4:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'I will have a psychedelic gleam in my eye @ all times...I will love the cops as they beat the shit out of me'...
	4:26pm flashbazbo: So this is the same as masked marauder by country joe. Or close enough. Wtf
	4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh - I said 'Section 43' - you're right. Yeah - love the Spinach but they plagiarized that one. Well.
	4:28pm Dominick: Not that Jim & Jean
	4:29pm geezerette: paisley opticle migraine.
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Actually - ergot / lysergic acid was researched by Sandoz & Hoffman as a cure for migraine. The adrenal gland & blood vessel dilation: When Fight or Flight is initiated - pupils dilate, blood flow to the brain increases...
	4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Pan ~ Panic - Madness - Enlightenment...
	4:37pm Rodeo Ron Randall: Great quote by Duke, eh? Almost as good as Buck Owens, "Ain't no money above the fifth fret."
	4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bass & Drum ..not quite Kraftwerk - but you can see them from there...a whole eight trax...
	4:41pm Irwin: Wilson produced two 7" sides by Jim & Jean, but none of their albums.
	4:48pm geezerette: kcrw in L.A. still has DJs like the VOs in these ads. it's awful !
	4:49pm Carmichael: I like the Nice song as an outro.
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (West Coasters they are not here.)
	4:52pm miles: Irwin, is this track from the source or did u replace it?
	4:52pm Michael 98145: - approaching the fiftieth anniversary of the Summer of Love (tm) -
	4:53pm Irwin: Miles: Don't recall.
	4:53pm geezerette: @RevRab,true. kxlu has really good DJs, almost as good as woofmoo.
	4:54pm miles: great track
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...hm - wiki says Tom Wilson was born in Waco - & based in L.A.? @Michael: We're more or less there : Pepper remix Friday. 'Bawstin'. I like Henry Rollins' show on KCRW. Lived SantaBarbara many years b4 webio years. JoeFrank was KCRW...
	4:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...reminds me of NYC's (beloved) Morgen here...
	5:00pm berbo: C'mon get happy!
	5:00pm geezerette: RevRab, you're right, both local bright spots.
	5:05pm geezerette: Wow! great!
	5:13pm common: How goes it.
	5:14pm Fredericks: That Delta Saxophone Quartet was mesmerizing.
	5:14pm geezerette: reminds me of Rhiannon Giddens.
	5:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (Take that Lennon person.)
	👻 5:15pm rrg: Rhiannon Giddens has a new album out.
	5:16pm Passaic River Blues: @Fredericks: word. That DSQ was no joke, and such a cool reimagining of Soft Machine.
	5:17pm mrmikestandsir: geezerette: yep!
	5:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...but the Rubinoos are suing...) Sax reminded me of Jan Garbarek. Kewl!
	5:19pm geezerette: @rrg, & it's extraordinary! Hope she'll have a long career.
	👻 5:19pm rrg: Agreed.
	5:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Miles people in a Coltrane trance. Heh.
	5:28pm Irwin: love the vocalist shouting from the next room.
	5:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: They can be Heroes.
	5:29pm redkayak: Good stuff :)
	5:30pm Passaic River Blues: This is a damn good set.
	5:31pm Irwin: Randy California guitar on next song: Godlike sustained notes.
	5:32pm geezerette: Spirit track gorgeous. Yep, great set.
	5:33pm jan: On the other hand, this Spirit song sure holds up... why ever did I leave that record at my parents tag sale?
	👻 5:33pm rrg: Just buy it again.
	5:35pm Jack: I love this note.
	5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Randy was named 'California' by JimiHendrix in GreenwichVillage when they were in a band together. Don'chaknow.
	5:36pm Irwin: That is one muthafuckin' note. He could've held it for 15 minutes and he wouldn't lose me.
	5:36pm geezerette: Irwin, yes, that guitar!
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If you try to hold a feedbacked sustained note like that a long time - you will find it tries to slip away from you...
	5:38pm geezerette: RevRab, good story. :)
	5:38pm Irwin: RRN63: I think Fripp and Gary Lucas found adequate workarounds.
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah - them.
	5:40pm Irwin: Californiatronics.
	👻 5:40pm Listening Out There: Don Chaknow
	5:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Randy Scouse Gittar.
	👻 5:45pm rrg: Hey. This is pretty good.
	5:46pm Irwin: Not typical of the Paupers. Kind've a country send-up.
	👻 5:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: That's a pretty harsh situation, for sure.
	5:47pm geezerette: Funny! Perfect country song,new favorite fer beer-cryin'.
	5:49pm glenn: i kinda thought the paupers might have been the international subnarine band for a moment.
	👻 5:51pm Listening Out There: "Another Man's Hare on My Taser" - A country classic about the time the Easter Bunny went bad...
	5:51pm Irwin: All voices by Albert Brooks.
	5:51pm geezerette: Love Albert Brooks.
	5:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (Seeing ThePaupers on S.F. Posters from Half a Century ago right now. So Thx.) Albert - not like him on variety shows or movies...like a link between BobNewhart & Firesign? Would not think all the same voice! Take that Sellers...
	👻 5:54pm Listening Out There: I follow Brooks on Twitter. Sending noteworthy tweets...
	👻 5:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Heh ... My cousin Janet used that phrase on us as kids: "What are you trying to prove?"
	5:55pm Irwin: This song is as good as anything Blondie's ever recorded.
	👻 5:56pm rrg: New Blondie! And I heard it here first.
	5:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...think maybe HarryShearer was aware?...)
	5:56pm Keith from Oregon: I agree, Irwin.
	5:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: W/ Clem Burke?
	5:57pm Irwin: Sounds like Clem but I haven't checked the personnel.
	5:57pm geezerette: Kept her voice & power.
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She's so kewl. Takes a good photo too, apparently...
	5:59pm geezerette: Thanks for great show Irwin.
	👻 6:00pm rrg: Yes, Clem Burke on drums.
	👻 6:00pm Listening Out There: How do you spell "Irwin"?
	👻 6:00pm rrg: And, right, thanks, iC.

"All of a sudden, Frank Zappa walked in. Teddy took one look at him and ran out of the room saying, 'What is that?' Zappa just wanted to hear [Basie's] band, but he looked so weird that Teddy didn't know what to make of him!"
	4:15pm the garden: Also along with seals there was an old couch on the beach. Also, there was driftwood smoldering, sending up smoke signals
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Zap !
	👻 4:16pm Alison Porchnik: @zopa - I meant a pop song. I am sure there are other songs, and children's songs, about kites. But how many pop songs?
	4:16pm I.M. Peaking: The old thumb on the reel flange. Psych 101
	4:17pm Irwin: I'm thinking of doing remixes or mashups with these MF commercials and replacing them in the shows. I'm so BORED with them.
	👻 4:18pm rrg: Like seven years ago. Yes.
	4:18pm the garden: I got stoned and made a sculpture in the sand. When the weed hit I saw the sculpture as a 2 dimensional face, so I went to work resculpting the whole thing. Then I flew the kite way up high. There were no danger trees so me and the kite felt very happy, like Coca Cola with cocaine.
	4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: en.wikipedia.org... ...gawdamn commercial radio...of all the Verve...
	👻 4:19pm rrg: "James Cotton is beautiful. But only one record to a customer, we like her just the way she is."

	4:21pm geezerette: m-aaaaaaaaaa-N
	4:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Richard Nixon really digs it.
	4:21pm berbo: "Women hate war. Oh dry up"
	4:22pm zopa: @alison ah. i see. you are right. with the exception of Kate Bush, I can't think if any either.
	4:22pm geezerette: cheap trick
	👻 4:23pm Alison Porchnik: So two pop songs (in English) about kites. Considering how fun kites are, that seems paltry to me. Compared to songs about driving, dancing, and sex, for example. Or even walking.
	4:23pm Suds Walsh (Tromboner): Ir, these shows are great little snapshots in time of a long gone flower powerish era. Makes me want to fish out my old Queen Anne's Lace LP on Coral.
	4:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: High as a Kate.
	4:24pm geezerette: go for Baroque.
	4:25pm Carmichael: I wish I could be a hepcat like Tom.
	4:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'I will have a psychedelic gleam in my eye @ all times...I will love the cops as they beat the shit out of me'...
	4:26pm flashbazbo: So this is the same as masked marauder by country joe. Or close enough. Wtf
	4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh - I said 'Section 43' - you're right. Yeah - love the Spinach but they plagiarized that one. Well.
	4:28pm Dominick: Not that Jim & Jean
	4:29pm geezerette: paisley opticle migraine.
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Actually - ergot / lysergic acid was researched by Sandoz & Hoffman as a cure for migraine. The adrenal gland & blood vessel dilation: When Fight or Flight is initiated - pupils dilate, blood flow to the brain increases...
	4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Pan ~ Panic - Madness - Enlightenment...
	4:37pm Rodeo Ron Randall: Great quote by Duke, eh? Almost as good as Buck Owens, "Ain't no money above the fifth fret."
	4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bass & Drum ..not quite Kraftwerk - but you can see them from there...a whole eight trax...
	4:41pm Irwin: Wilson produced two 7" sides by Jim & Jean, but none of their albums.
	4:48pm geezerette: kcrw in L.A. still has DJs like the VOs in these ads. it's awful !
	4:49pm Carmichael: I like the Nice song as an outro.
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (West Coasters they are not here.)
	4:52pm miles: Irwin, is this track from the source or did u replace it?
	4:52pm Michael 98145: - approaching the fiftieth anniversary of the Summer of Love (tm) -
	4:53pm Irwin: Miles: Don't recall.
	4:53pm geezerette: @RevRab,true. kxlu has really good DJs, almost as good as woofmoo.
	4:54pm miles: great track
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...hm - wiki says Tom Wilson was born in Waco - & based in L.A.? @Michael: We're more or less there : Pepper remix Friday. 'Bawstin'. I like Henry Rollins' show on KCRW. Lived SantaBarbara many years b4 webio years. JoeFrank was KCRW...
	4:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...reminds me of NYC's (beloved) Morgen here...
	5:00pm berbo: C'mon get happy!
	5:00pm geezerette: RevRab, you're right, both local bright spots.
	5:05pm geezerette: Wow! great!
	5:13pm common: How goes it.
	5:14pm Fredericks: That Delta Saxophone Quartet was mesmerizing.
	5:14pm geezerette: reminds me of Rhiannon Giddens.
	5:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (Take that Lennon person.)
	👻 5:15pm rrg: Rhiannon Giddens has a new album out.
	5:16pm Passaic River Blues: @Fredericks: word. That DSQ was no joke, and such a cool reimagining of Soft Machine.
	5:17pm mrmikestandsir: geezerette: yep!
	5:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...but the Rubinoos are suing...) Sax reminded me of Jan Garbarek. Kewl!

	👻 5:33pm rrg: Just buy it again.
	5:35pm Jack: I love this note.
	5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Randy was named 'California' by JimiHendrix in GreenwichVillage when they were in a band together. Don'chaknow.
	5:36pm Irwin: That is one muthafuckin' note. He could've held it for 15 minutes and he wouldn't lose me.
	5:36pm geezerette: Irwin, yes, that guitar!
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If you try to hold a feedbacked sustained note like that a long time - you will find it tries to slip away from you...
	5:38pm geezerette: RevRab, good story. :)
	5:38pm Irwin: RRN63: I think Fripp and Gary Lucas found adequate workarounds.
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah - them.

	5:47pm geezerette: Funny! Perfect country song,new favorite fer beer-cryin'.
	5:49pm glenn: i kinda thought the paupers might have been the international subnarine band for a moment.
	👻 5:51pm Listening Out There: "Another Man's Hare on My Taser" - A country classic about the time the Easter Bunny went bad...
	5:51pm Irwin: All voices by Albert Brooks.
	5:51pm geezerette: Love Albert Brooks.
	5:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (Seeing ThePaupers on S.F. Posters from Half a Century ago right now. So Thx.) Albert - not like him on variety shows or movies...like a link between BobNewhart & Firesign? Would not think all the same voice! Take that Sellers...
	👻 5:54pm Listening Out There: I follow Brooks on Twitter. Sending noteworthy tweets...
	👻 5:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Heh ... My cousin Janet used that phrase on us as kids: "What are you trying to prove?"
	5:55pm Irwin: This song is as good as anything Blondie's ever recorded.
	👻 5:56pm rrg: New Blondie! And I heard it here first.
	5:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...think maybe HarryShearer was aware?...)
	5:56pm Keith from Oregon: I agree, Irwin.
