	♥ 10:21pm Uncle Michael: HAHAHA
	♥ 10:21pm Funky16Corners: D'oh
	10:22pm cupcakejenny:
	♥ 10:22pm Uncle Michael: I'm dyin'.
	10:22pm northguineahills: I was waiting for UM to back announce.... (oh, I'm late to the party).
	♥ 10:22pm Funky16Corners: We're clearly in some kind of time loop.
	♥ 10:22pm Funky16Corners: Or Fruit Loop
	♥ 10:23pm Uncle Michael: Larry, you probably introduced me to I Guess I'm Dumb. I love it so, so much.
	♥ 10:24pm Uncle Michael: Brian at his Bacharachiest.
	♥ 10:24pm Funky16Corners: It really is a beautiful song/record
	♥ 10:24pm Funky16Corners: And in my defense, most Fridays at 3:00 I'm getting the kids off the bus
	♥ 10:25pm Uncle Michael: I know. No harm, no foul.
	10:26pm cupcakejenny: Miles is enjoying heroes and villains. Sean too.
	♥ 10:26pm Funky16Corners: Big fave hereabouts
	♥ 10:33pm Uncle Michael: Oh, Well was the only Fleetwood Mac single to chart stateside before Over My Head in '76.
	♥ 10:34pm Funky16Corners: I did not know that!
	♥ 10:35pm Uncle Michael: Neither did I. I just opened my Whitburn book and looked it up!
	10:35pm cupcakejenny: Omg you should have seen Sean's face when I rewound what you said mentioning them.

	♥ 10:38pm Uncle Michael: You're not piping the show through the whole house?
	♥ 10:40pm Uncle Michael: You'd think he'd be cool with two hours a week dad's not bugging him. I know I would be!
	♥ 10:40pm Funky16Corners: Now that summer's here and the boys can stay up later, maybe we should
	♥ 10:41pm Uncle Michael: "Dad's on the radio." might be pretty cool.
	10:41pm northguineahills: You know if I was deejaying a show from my domicile, it would be piped throughout my abode, actually it already is 50% of the time. (it is a wee late, I suppose).
	♥ 10:41pm Funky16Corners: Mom's streaming it for them upstairs
	♥ 10:41pm Funky16Corners: I'm sure they're all doing the boogaloo
	♥ 10:42pm Uncle Michael: Albatross>Black Magic Woman>Black Magic Woman>Oye Como Va>Oye Como Va would be some sweet segues.
	♥ 10:43pm Funky16Corners: Good idea!
	♥ 10:44pm Uncle Michael: I haven't done a linkage show on GDTR. That goes into the queue. A covers B, B covers C, C covers D... Z covers A...maybe.
	♥ 10:45pm Funky16Corners: I eagerly await it!
	♥ 10:45pm Uncle Michael: That's going to take some planning.
	♥ 10:53pm Uncle Michael: I'm pushing the keyboard away. Keep the faith! Thanks, Larry. Night all.
	♥ 10:53pm Funky16Corners: Nite UM!
	🥁 ♥ 10:55pm Jeff Ash: Thank you, sir!
	♥ 11:00pm Funky16Corners: I hope you had a good day!
	♥ 11:14pm Funky16Corners: If anyone's awake, this is where you start dancing.
	🥁 ♥ 11:25pm Jeff Ash: Trust me, I did not see any of these 45s in that huge collection I was digging through the other day.
	♥ 11:26pm Funky16Corners: You got some good stuff. That Lavern Baker was a very respectable catch on the cheap
	11:26pm Mr. Boogaloo: FYI: Wayne Bennett played with Bobby Blue Bland from around 1958 to at least 1965. Heavy cat. Had not heard this solo outing before. Thanks for playing it.
	♥ 11:27pm Funky16Corners: You're welcome! Thanks for the info!
	🥁 ♥ 11:27pm Jeff Ash: I just got lucky. Guy who had that collection was really into novelty records. They just found more and put them out. I'll have to go through those, too. And I'm not even a 45 guy.
	11:27pm geezerette: Hey, here for now, archive later. Thanks Larry!
	♥ 11:29pm Funky16Corners: You're welcome! Thanks for listening!

	♥ 11:32pm Funky16Corners: Thanks!
	11:34pm geezerette: Mama Cass,force of nature.
	♥ 11:34pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, what a voice
	♥ 11:35pm Funky16Corners: A big presence in my childhood. One of the first songs I remember is Monday Monday, and my Mom used to play her greatest hits LP 'Mama's Big Ones' all the time
	11:37pm geezerette: That 60's sound seems so romantic now, so foreign. Peggy Lipton was married to Quincy Jones.
	11:37pm northguineahills: If I don't make it back, thanks Larry!
	♥ 11:38pm Funky16Corners: My pleasure! Thanks for coming!
	♥ 11:39pm Funky16Corners: Geezerette - The Peggy Lipton LP I have is quite good. She had talent
	11:39pm geezerette: hi/bye NGH :)
	11:42pm geezerette: She'd have to be musical to be Mrs. Jones. Jennifer Warnes too, great set!
	♥ 11:42pm Funky16Corners: Thanks!
	♥ 11:43pm Funky16Corners: That early Jennifer Warnes stuff doesn't get the shine it deserves
	11:43pm geezerette: I agree!
	11:45pm geezerette: wow, great version!
	♥ 11:46pm Funky16Corners: The original demo. It's just a hair short of being finished
	11:46pm geezerette: she must have written it.
	♥ 11:46pm Funky16Corners: She did indeed!
	♥ 11:48pm Doug Schulkind: This has been one helluva sequence, Sir.
	♥ 11:49pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Doug!
	11:51pm geezerette: So much of this music is Bacharach inflected.
	♥ 11:52pm Funky16Corners: Def in that same amorphous cloud of chord changes, melodies and the musical zeitgeist
	♥ 11:54pm Funky16Corners: This is church right here.
	11:55pm geezerette: Yes! Lovely, looking forward to the start of show, Ha!That's all there is!
	🥁 ♥ 11:55pm Jeff Ash: This last set has been sublime.
	♥ 11:55pm Funky16Corners: Thank you sir. Lots of DEEP favorites in there
	11:55pm geezerette: "Booooooooze..."
	♥ 11:56pm Funky16Corners: Wait'll the break. I'll tell you a story about this one
	11:56pm geezerette: :D !!!
