Darkness Darkness a great cut. Richie H. doing The Fugs too! RIP Richie and Tuli Kupferberg.9:07am : Thank you for Mr. Havens at this moment, Bob.9:14am : Good morning morning all!9:15am : Spilling the age beans, but I did see Richie Haven's "Mixed Bag" residency at the great Café Au Go Go when a mere lad.9:17am : Mornin' all!9:18am : Herman's Hermits sound sometimes surprises me, or they seem more versatile than expected.9:20am : Fasten your psychic seatbelts folks for the Airplane.9:21am : that piano lilt in the richie havens tune just get me in the gut, such sweet phrasing..9:21am : Seat backs are up and tray tables are in their upright and locked position...9:22am : you can keep the Starship, i'll take Airplane anyday9:23am : Annie I'm with you.9:24am : Imagine hearing Starship first and then learning about Airplane.9:25am : Don't forget Hot Tuna!9:27am : that would be a shock to the system, melinda, it would be similar to robbie the robot's "it does not compute" response.9:30am : Tho I include Starship's
"Blows" and Kantner- Slick's first three duo LPs as more Airplane.9:30am : @Melinda - I knew Marty Balin from his song “Hearts” first, then Starship and Jefferson Starship (whom I saw perform and both open AND close with “We Built This City”) and then the Airplane.9:31am : Not if sure if my timeline is more tragic or less.9:32am : Morning Bob, I was hiking in the woods along the Hudson yesterday and that JA song was in my head, Thanks9:36am : Glad to see "My Reservation's Been Confirmed" in heavy rotation.9:36am : Powerful it was, Richie in '66.9:36am : Good morning all from Michigan.9:37am : It's a damn great rock instrumental! Perked my ears way back.9:38am : C'mon folks turn it up!9:41am : every show, almost every show of yours, bob, takes me back to smoky living rooms of the sixties and seventies, laid-back and smokin' one.9:43am : New here, hi all, I hear XTC in this Dukes of Stratosphere!9:46am : hey leelee, welcome!! ... well, the expenditure of these laptop speakers was well worth it.... great sound...i bought them in staples, bad luck with them up until now..9:50am : Thanks @Annie! Happy to be listening in my car right now, in a Dunkin D pkg lot :)
For weekday/workday FMU listening I’m at the mercy of earbuds. But I’ll take it however I can get it!9:50am : @exile I know what you mean. It can be very rewarding to discover that a band you're aware of had a previous and superior incarnation.9:55am : Those L.A. blues hippies9:58am : Clouds thinning out a little. Spring trying to overpower winter's snowy grip.10:01am : Butterfield had my eleven year old daughter and big Katy Perry fan, boogieing all over the kitchen...10:02am : Al Wilson was incredible.10:04am : Sonny Rollins was only 19 on that Bub Powell session10:08am : Check out "Owl" Wilson's interplay with John Lee Hooker on "Hooker 'n Heat."🥁 10:12am : There's a whole bunch of outakes from the Pitney/Spector sessions. Mostly instrumental jams.10:14am : YOU TEXT?!!?10:14am : Texting? Phone calls? Hands on the tone arm and volume knobs please.10:15am : saw the original heat a few times and what killed the band was the tune, The Boogie, when they became popular, the crowd wouldn't let them play anything else... it got so bad with people yelling for the Boogie, that the Bear pleaded one night that they had plenty of other songs and give them a listen... it didn't help...10:21am : i'll have to remember to get your premium, bob...10:22am : loved that JonBrion song reminded me of Brian Protheroe..10:28am : Good Morning All. Under the weather,
