	10:05pm geezerette: 'Evening Kris! This jukebox is rocking.
	10:06pm Kris Holmes: Hi Geezerette, long time no see? Thanks for tuning in :)
	10:07pm geezerette: Good to be "back".
	♥ 10:08pm Funky16Corners: Hey Kris!
	10:08pm Kris Holmes: Hey Larry!
	♥ 10:13pm Little Danny: Evening Kris and all! Really diggin' the Marquee club circa '63 mod groove you're laying out here
	♥ 10:13pm Funky16Corners: Love the Patty and the Emblems
	10:17pm Doug Schulkind: Halcyon jamz!
	10:23pm Kris Holmes: Marquee 63 Dan!, don't make me find my Georgie Fame & Zoot Money records hahaha. I was never "Mod" (unlike Misa) but I have all the 45s!
	10:26pm geezerette: This music is so sophisticated and joyous. Really love the energy.
	10:27pm Kris Holmes: nice, glad you are digging it. New Orleans at it's finest on this Professor Longhair 45!
	♥ 10:28pm Funky16Corners: I just pulled Georgie's 'Preach and Teach' out yesterday, and second the love for 'Big Chief'
	10:29pm Kris Holmes: Georgie Fame has so many great cuts
	♥ 10:31pm Little Danny: I'm such a snob when it comes to mod stuff, and I need to get over myself. I honestly don't think I've ever heard a record by either Fame or Zoot Money
	♥ 10:31pm Funky16Corners: Great vocal R&B and soul and stellar Hammind stuff, too
	♥ 10:31pm Funky16Corners: Zoot's Live at Klooks Kleek is a killer
	10:32pm Kris Holmes: Dan, WTH? Dude!!
	10:32pm geezerette: :) !!! the way this builds.
	♥ 10:33pm Funky16Corners: I got heavily into soul/soul jazz during my years on the garage/mod scene. Lots of friends that were hardcore mods were a big influence on my tastes
	♥ 10:37pm Little Danny: Haha. I'm weird.
	♥ 10:38pm Little Danny: Larry, I seem to remember a far bit of UK mod cats on some of your mixes over the years
	♥ 10:39pm Funky16Corners: That would be an astute observation. I was never a mod but that sensibility runs deep.
	♥ 10:41pm Little Danny: I kinda prefer this Rickey Calloway version to the Soul Dynamics original, which is almost too aggro for my tastes
	♥ 10:41pm Little Danny: Totally with you on that, Larry
	♥ 10:43pm Funky16Corners: Just posted the Shotgun Express this week
	♥ 10:44pm Funky16Corners: BTW this Vibrations version is a fave
	10:45pm Kris Holmes: yeah i dig their take
	♥ 10:50pm Cubs Win: Howdy, Tex.
	10:51pm Kris Holmes: Hi there Michael. Dodgers just starting...... It seems every Tuesday "Cubs Win"??
	♥ 10:53pm Funky16Corners: The Mets need to stop playing these West coast teams unless they're all going to be day games
	♥ 10:56pm Uncle Michael: no, not every Tuesday...I wish west coast trips are brutal
	♥ 10:58pm Uncle Michael: Brewers lost...Cubs are a 1/2 game out of first.
	♥ 10:59pm Little Danny: This Na Allen is new to me and totally great
	10:59pm Kris Holmes: written by Ruth Brown!!
	♥ 11:01pm Funky16Corners: Night guys. Enjoyed the show (as always) Kris!
	11:02pm Kris Holmes: Goodnight Larry, thanks for tuning in!
	♥ 11:05pm Uncle Michael: You have Penny on 45? Whoa.
	11:05pm Kris Holmes: both versions
	♥ 11:05pm Uncle Michael: Ah, reissue. What an fascinating backstory on this record...or near lack of one!
	11:08pm Kris Holmes: yep, well, the original demo only existed on tape, so it's technically the original 45 heh. The Supremes on Grog is the full group version I have which actually was a 60s release.
	♥ 11:12pm Uncle Michael: en.wikipedia.org...
	11:15pm Kris Holmes: such a great story
	♥ 11:17pm Uncle Michael: I couldn't pick Ryan Gosling out of a lineup.
	11:18pm Kris Holmes: i would struggle
	♥ 11:19pm Uncle Michael: I woefully disinterested in current popular culture. I know the shit that seeps in without my consent.
	11:21pm Kris Holmes: That song was honestly the best thing about that film, otherwise boring
	♥ 11:25pm Uncle Michael: My disconnect from popcult burns me. Example: I think AC/DC's "It's a Long Way to the Top if You Want to Rock and Roll" is a monster. This spring when the season starts at Wrigley, they blasted it when the players raised the banner and walked out carrying the trophy. Albert Almora Jr. is singing along. I think this is cool as shit. Someone had to tell me he probably knows it from "School of Rock" and I'm like "oh...damn".
	11:30pm Kris Holmes: Ha
	♥ 11:32pm Uncle Michael: I'm calling it a night, Kris. Play me out for another half hour, ok?
	11:32pm Kris Holmes: Goodnight! Will do.
	♥ 11:35pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, mate. Night.
	♥ 11:36pm Little Danny: Ah, the Sapphires. So damn dreamy
	11:37pm geezerette: Wow, never heard of the Lamp Sisters but what a record! Sapphires, gorgeous.
	11:38pm Kris Holmes: I'm fairly certain I have more than one copy of this Sapphires 45, it's definitely in another box I've opened recently
	11:39pm geezerette: Dreamy, exactly, that otherworldly sound quality.
	11:39pm Kris Holmes: I love that Lamp Sisters 45, the slow intro & then kablam!
	♥ 11:41pm Little Danny: @geezerette: SUCH a unique sound. Like a lo-fi girl group that secretly wants to be a wall of sound production. Also, hi!
	11:44pm geezerette: So much talent! Kris, Danny, UM if you're still awake, glad for all you social anthropologists, Danny, exactly my thoughts. Hi to you as well!
	11:51pm geezerette: Great Xtra raunchy version.
	11:52pm Kris Holmes: yeah they overdubbed horns & re-released it for some reason??!!
	11:54pm geezerette: My husband, the sound engineer, just said,"Wow! whata great recording". :)
	11:55pm Kris Holmes: ha, cool!
	11:59pm geezerette: Thanks Kris, fabulous show!
	12:00am Kris Holmes: Thank You!
