	9:23pm Dave in SoDak: So, "New Girl in School" - I don't know exactly who wrote it, but of the three or four covers I've heard of it, my absolute fave is the version Alex Chilton did on his "A Man Called Destruction" from 1995. Also of note on that album, "What's Your Sign, Girl?" Brilliant.
	9:24pm Jinx: A white Panasonic ball radio was used as a prop on Vinyl on HBO.

	9:25pm Joe R.: Oh wow, haven't heard this song (Rolene) since the early '80s - and probably not the last time I'll say that about a track during this show!
	9:30pm Number Six: Kraftwerk! Yesssss!
	9:30pm melinda: I don't think I've heard the original Kraftwerk before, just its sampled form. Nice!
	9:30pm fleep: Trans-Europe Express charted at #67, and it's weird how it's like on the edge of memory, clearly got some KROQ play in the day ...
	9:32pm Quasi Mojo: @medson yes, that one too
	9:35pm Number Six: @fleep: Kraftwerk got a lot of airplay on the old WNEW in the NY area at the time thanks to Allison Steele.
	9:39pm melinda: My mom asked who the group was when Kraftwerk was on and when I told her she thought I said Crapworth. We had some laughs.
	9:40pm lkrasner: Such a great cover
	9:41pm efd: glad you think so, lkrasner! I love it.
	9:41pm efd: melinda lol!
	9:41pm Quasi Mojo: Signed, sealed, delivered was on the I'm In You album which pretty much cemented Frampton as a teeny bopper flash in the pan, despite some good tunes on the album.
	9:44pm lkrasner: One of those rare occasions where a 7" is probably a better value than it's corresponding LP...
	9:45pm Barkevious Shabazz: The Motors?
	9:45pm Bootsie: Play ALL the Sparks!!
	9:46pm efd: @Barkevious I have a Motors single.... at home. :(
	9:47pm efd: @Bootsie I just might!
	9:47pm Number Six: The original by Klaatu was SO much better!

	9:49pm BriJet: ahhhhhhhhhh Carpenters!!!!!!!

	9:49pm BriJet: <3
	9:50pm Number Six: @efd: YES!
	9:51pm efd: i love that handclap break
	9:54pm Number Six: Nice! Following Klaatu with Paul M.!
	9:55pm Jinx: Just bought that Klaatu LP at 2nd & Charles for $2.50, in Very Good condition. I was satisfied.
	9:57pm Jinx: Red sub Rose rosa Speedway subway. Nice double LP.
	9:58pm adampsyche: I LOVE THIS SONG
	10:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Gosh, this Maxine Nightingale takes me back.
	10:01pm Bootsie: LUV that Maxine Nightingale track.
	10:01pm clapper: Would love to hear some Ted Gardestad- early 70's Swedish pop gold!!!!
	10:01pm Bootsie: @Ken, yes!
	10:02pm medson: Have any Blondie in that box?
	10:02pm andrewb: theme from" slapshot" greatest sports movie ever
	10:03pm efd: not in my box, @clapper, but I'll keep an eye out for next year! :)
	10:03pm andrewb: arguably
	10:03pm WO Town Wick: "right back where we started from"--Michael Shelly put an amazing cover of that on one of his Super Hits from the 70's premiums a few years back--became a New Orleans-type party song
	10:03pm lkrasner: Hoping for some Big Star
	10:03pm efd: @medson uh-huh I do
	10:04pm WO Town Wick: I never heard that Jackson song-- I liked it a lot.
	10:04pm medson: NICE
	10:05pm WO Town Wick: Candi Staton has lived a life!
	10:14pm medson: Well said efd
	10:14pm Dave in SoDak: lkrasner, in around '73-ish, the big AM station in town was throwing out free 7"'s at a drive-in burger joint called the Barrel. I showed up on my Schwinn and picked up a freebie - "Big Star "Big Star" with the B-side being "Big Star" instrumental - no vocals. In 1984 my klepto college roommate stole it...
	10:14pm Bootsie: YESSSS!
	10:15pm medson: My friend said she loved Sparks last week
	10:15pm Bootsie: I'm still a bit giddy over how awesome that Sparks show was.
	10:16pm efd: ohmygod it was INCREDIBLE!
	10:24pm medson: Wow. Slade. Singles going glam. Soooooo good
	10:34pm Bootsie: They played "Nicotina" as a second encore at their last LA show, dammit.
	10:38pm efd: yeah but we got "Hospitality On Parade!"
	10:41pm medson: Thanks efd : )
	10:42pm melinda: Love Heart of Glass.
	10:42pm efd: my pleasure!
	10:52pm RomanDogBird: SIT ON IT
	10:52pm efd: AAAyyyyy!
	10:54pm medson: I had the fonz tube socks as a kid for some reason
	10:55pm john: OK, Horslips. And not Dearg Doom. (Though it took me a while to appreciate the Aliens elpee.) Now my night's complete. Well played, Evan!
	10:56pm efd: I was hoping you were still listening, john!
	10:57pm melinda: @medson haha. The fonz was huge back then, as were tube socks, so it makes sense.
	10:57pm john: If I weren't, my Horslips spidey sense would have tuned me back in. 1977 green vinyl, too!
	10:57pm efd: yup!
	10:59pm karankeeone: Not a bad version by ernie graham, but the Thin Lizzy version is a bit heavier I feel. Great song!
	11:00pm john: They loved their green vinyl (though The Man Who Built America came in yellow). Best of all was the shamrock-shaped green single for Loneliness.
	11:00pm medson: Thanks for making me feel better Melinda haha
	11:05pm melinda: I actually requested tube socks for my 9th birthday. I think there might be a photo of me wearing them with shorts and rainbow suspenders.
	11:11pm Bootsie: God I miss the Ramones.
	11:16pm medson: Is this the SWAT theme song?
	11:19pm efd: it was! ( as you probably heard me say right after you typed that!)
	11:20pm medson: I should’ve known to wait
	11:21pm john: OK, I can exhale now. Couldn't imagine this show could go three whole hours with no Nick Gilder. Push up that CanCon!
	11:22pm Ricky: I felt compelled to change my user name to my 70s nickname. So I did!
	11:25pm karankeeone: Charlie Dore--great vocal!
	11:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: I know I've heard "Pilot of the Airwaves" many times, but I don't remember when the last time was (most likely 1980).
	11:25pm efd: glad to relieve that pressure, john!
	11:25pm Scraps deSelby: bop bop h’lo
	11:26pm efd: @karankeeone my longtime dream has been for Laura Cantrell to cover "Pilot Of The Airwaves."
	11:27pm john: Hey, running a business that's about 75% CanCon, I'm exceptionally sensitive to these things! And oh gosh, that would be an awesome cover.
	11:27pm efd: hey there Scraps!
	11:32pm Scraps: hey dore, e”f”d!
	11:38pm Danne D: Hi EFD and all :) glad to sneak in for a little bit :)
	11:39pm Alex of Chicago: working late and appreciating the set and imagining radio being like this all the time
	11:45pm efd: hey Alex, thanks for checking in! You too, Danne!
	11:48pm Alex of Chicago: apparently, umps are still bad
	11:52pm efd: shocker!
	11:56pm Number Six: Very nice show, Evan! Thanks!
	11:56pm efd: thank you, and thanks all for listening and commenting!

	10:52pm efd: AAAyyyyy!
	10:54pm medson: I had the fonz tube socks as a kid for some reason
	10:55pm john: OK, Horslips. And not Dearg Doom. (Though it took me a while to appreciate the Aliens elpee.) Now my night's complete. Well played, Evan!
	10:56pm efd: I was hoping you were still listening, john!
	10:57pm melinda: @medson haha. The fonz was huge back then, as were tube socks, so it makes sense.
	10:57pm john: If I weren't, my Horslips spidey sense would have tuned me back in. 1977 green vinyl, too!
	10:57pm efd: yup!
	10:59pm karankeeone: Not a bad version by ernie graham, but the Thin Lizzy version is a bit heavier I feel. Great song!
	11:00pm john: They loved their green vinyl (though The Man Who Built America came in yellow). Best of all was the shamrock-shaped green single for Loneliness.
	11:00pm medson: Thanks for making me feel better Melinda haha
	11:05pm melinda: I actually requested tube socks for my 9th birthday. I think there might be a photo of me wearing them with shorts and rainbow suspenders.
	11:11pm Bootsie: God I miss the Ramones.
	11:16pm medson: Is this the SWAT theme song?
	11:19pm efd: it was! ( as you probably heard me say right after you typed that!)
	11:20pm medson: I should’ve known to wait
	11:21pm john: OK, I can exhale now. Couldn't imagine this show could go three whole hours with no Nick Gilder. Push up that CanCon!
	11:22pm Ricky: I felt compelled to change my user name to my 70s nickname. So I did!
	11:25pm karankeeone: Charlie Dore--great vocal!
	11:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: I know I've heard "Pilot of the Airwaves" many times, but I don't remember when the last time was (most likely 1980).
	11:25pm efd: glad to relieve that pressure, john!
	11:25pm Scraps deSelby: bop bop h’lo
	11:26pm efd: @karankeeone my longtime dream has been for Laura Cantrell to cover "Pilot Of The Airwaves."
	11:27pm john: Hey, running a business that's about 75% CanCon, I'm exceptionally sensitive to these things! And oh gosh, that would be an awesome cover.
	11:27pm efd: hey there Scraps!
	11:32pm Scraps: hey dore, e”f”d!
	11:38pm Danne D: Hi EFD and all :) glad to sneak in for a little bit :)
	11:39pm Alex of Chicago: working late and appreciating the set and imagining radio being like this all the time
	11:45pm efd: hey Alex, thanks for checking in! You too, Danne!
	11:48pm Alex of Chicago: apparently, umps are still bad
	11:52pm efd: shocker!
	11:56pm Number Six: Very nice show, Evan! Thanks!
	11:56pm efd: thank you, and thanks all for listening and commenting!
