	10:00pm Uncle Michael: Testify!
	10:00pm hyde: hello
	10:00pm Gary: HI Larry!
	10:01pm Uncle Michael: lost the stream, Larry...
	10:02pm Uncle Michael: Had Fred...and lost him again.
	10:02pm hyde: yeah, some serious dropouts.
	10:02pm Gary: Stream loss!
	10:03pm Gary: There we go
	10:03pm Funky16Corners: Back on now??
	10:03pm Uncle Michael: Fred's back....and gone again...
	10:03pm Gary: Oh noes! Again! ... lost :(
	10:04pm Gary: Here we go
	10:04pm Uncle Michael: back
	10:04pm still b/p: Stream Please Don't Go!
	10:04pm Funky16Corners: I have no idea what's up
	10:05pm Uncle Michael: may be holding this time...
	10:05pm hyde: steady now
	10:05pm Funky16Corners: I think it's finally stable
	10:05pm Gary: Seems like we've got liftoff
	10:05pm Funky16Corners: Hot dog. Hi everyone!
	10:06pm hyde: love this song
	10:07pm Uncle Michael: gone again...I'd power cycle modem and router...and have!
	10:07pm Uncle Michael: back
	10:08pm Uncle Michael: gone
	10:08pm Funky16Corners: Back?
	10:09pm Uncle Michael: yes
	10:10pm still b/p: The phrase "hayh past nine" is so gratifying somehow.
	10:10pm Funky16Corners: Sorry about the problems guys.
	10:11pm Uncle Michael: First heard John the Revelator performed by Gov't Mule and still love the way they do it.
	10:11pm Uncle Michael: We've all had stream troubles.
	10:16pm Funky16Corners: That Son House was my first. Love the Blind Willie Johnson, too
	10:18pm Kris Holmes: Good evening from the Holmes family!!
	10:18pm Kris Holmes: loving the country blues
	10:19pm Funky16Corners: Hey Holmeses!
	10:20pm Uncle Michael: I sought out the Son House as soon as I'd been exposed to the song. Warren's take is based on the Son House.
	10:28pm Funky16Corners: Powerful stuff
	10:33pm Kris Holmes: as a pubescent blues guitar prodigy i spent a lot of time devouring all that stuff through my teenage years. it was mind expanding. i am infinitely worse at playing it these days, wish i'd kept up on it.
	10:34pm Funky16Corners: It's some of my favorite music.
	10:41pm Uncle Michael: I used to really rely on the Red Telephone blog.
	10:43pm Funky16Corners: Me too
	10:43pm Uncle Michael: One of my dad's old flames' brother was a founding member of Love and the Standells. I was supposed to get to dine with him a few years back but it didn't happen.
	10:45pm Funky16Corners: Wow!
	10:46pm Uncle Michael: I guess he joined the Standells after he left Love in '66, so not a founding member.
	10:46pm Funky16Corners: That's still heady company to keep
	10:47pm Uncle Michael: John Fleck(enstein)
	10:48pm Uncle Michael: The dinner out happened, but John ended up begging off.
	10:49pm Funky16Corners: That would have been cool.
	10:50pm Uncle Michael: I half suspected he got wind that a music fan was part of the party and that's why he begged off.
	10:51pm Funky16Corners: That's too bad. I wonder what business he's in now?
	10:52pm Uncle Michael: Probably dreaded "What was Albert Lee really like?" and "What was it like growing up in Boston?"
	10:53pm Uncle Michael: I don't know. he was playing with the reformed Standells a couple years ago, but according to Wikipedia he's back to "past member". maybe Wikipedia never got wind of the reunion.
	10:53pm Kris Holmes: I saw John Fleck live doing both Love & Standells songs with The Standells & Johnny Echols at the Ponderosa Stomp in 2013. They had a panel discussion too which was extremely interesting.
	10:54pm Kris Holmes: never heard the labelle version of won't get fooled, awesome
	10:56pm Uncle Michael: John has a couple of writing credits in the Love catalog.
	10:57pm Doug Schulkind: Sorry about the Internet gremlins, Larry. They nip our heels they do.
	10:58pm Funky16Corners: Hey Doug! I comfort myself thinking it was that little green guy with wings on his head from Bugs Bunny.
	11:00pm Doug Schulkind: We should just give that little green guy his own show already.
	11:02pm Kris Holmes: love this spotlights track, so cool, great backstory too!!
	11:03pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, wild supergroup
	11:04pm Funky16Corners: I'd like to find the other Spotlights 45
	11:04pm doctorjazz: Hi all! Made it!
	11:04pm Kris Holmes: wouldn't we all?
	11:04pm Kris Holmes: also, what if the LP existed!!
	11:05pm Funky16Corners: I have the LP from the session. www.discogs.com...
	11:06pm Funky16Corners: Hi Doctor!
	11:08pm Uncle Michael: I don't think the rest of the LP is the Spotlights. Cast Off...is the beginning of Gregg's association and freindship with Jackson Browne.
	11:08pm Funky16Corners: No but it features prime early Leon Russell
	11:09pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, Cast Off is a longtime fave
	11:11pm Funky16Corners: I love this alt version of Dreams
	11:11pm Uncle Michael: What's the alt. version on?
	11:12pm Uncle Michael: I found this blog post about the Spotlights very entertaining: savagelost.com...
	11:13pm Funky16Corners: It's from the box set that came out maybe ten years ago
	11:14pm Funky16Corners: Whoa, closer to 20! www.discogs.com...
	11:14pm Mike Sin: Strangely, I came to know the Hour Glass through thaf strange civer of "Norwegian Wood."
	11:15pm Funky16Corners: Really interesting band, despite the fact that the Allmans hated that period
	11:15pm Funky16Corners: Oh, and Hey Mike!
	11:19pm still b/p: Gregg was 22-23 on those last tracks?...fwhoo.
	11:24pm Uncle Michael: Nice tribute, Larry.
	11:24pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Unk!
	11:29pm Uncle Michael: I'm going to put the keyboard away. Great show tonight, Larry. Night all...
	11:29pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Michael! Night!
	11:32pm Kris Holmes: love Freddy King
	11:32pm Funky16Corners: Me too, grab everything I can get my hands on
	11:34pm Kris Holmes: steve cropper had that nasty guitar tone for a minute on the early sides!!
	11:36pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, the solo on Plum Nellie is hot
	11:38pm Kris Holmes: i've been playing this Billy Butler out again lately, so great!
	11:39pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, great dance floor number
	11:41pm still b/p: Stones version of Fortune Teller for some reason showed up often enough for a while on WBCN Boston in mid 70s for me to start singing along.
	11:41pm Funky16Corners: I like to think that Allen Toussaint's mailbox was filled with fat checks from all the covers
	11:45pm still b/p: Pay to the order of Naomi Neville.
	11:46pm Funky16Corners: Yup!
	11:52pm Funky16Corners: I left my wallet in El Segundo....
	11:54pm Mike Sin: Supa-fine show! Good night, all!
	11:54pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Mike! Night!
	12:03am still b/p: Duggit.
	12:03am Funky16Corners: Thanks much!
	11:40am Stalin Alive: mp3 link seems not working!
	12:29pm Funky16Corners: I'm not sure why that is. You can grab an MP3 here for the time being: testifyradio.wordpress.com
