Listener comments!
	4:31pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hey, everyone! Welcome to an easy, jazzy, groovy celebration of Woodstock here at LoriHajiTura :-)
	5:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Here we go!
	5:00pm Hopey Sockmonkey: No refresh needed!
	5:00pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Hi GG!
	5:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hey Hopey! :-) It was super smooth today!
	5:01pm Mr Fab: Far out! Here, you CAN take the brown acid.
	5:02pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hey Mr Fab! :-) I'm off on a Hobo Voyage ;-)
	5:02pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Also, Friday's Flange is called The Brown Acid. lol.
	5:03pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Really diggin this version of Woodstock.
	5:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It's ideal for a groovy little chair bop, I'm finding :-)
	5:04pm Mr Fab: How great would it have been if Woodstock really did feature the likes of James Last, Sammy Davis Jr, The 5th Dimension, Sergio Mendes, etc. Might even be worth camping in the mud for. ("Woodschlock"?)
	5:05pm Linda Lee: wow!! this is amazing! hi! our local papers are all about the crowds descending on the county for woodstock weekend! there's a shortage of campsites!
	5:05pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I need a time machine!!!!!!!!
	5:05pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Linda Lee!!! :-)
	5:06pm Linda Lee: hello hello!
	5:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I would totally camp in the mud for James Last :-)
	5:07pm Linda Lee: Mr F, we camped at the site for the 25th anniversary & it was a little muddy then too. the site was just so pretty & the crowd was so nice that it was no hardship. imagine the same for the first time!
	5:08pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I imagine it's really peaceful there too
	5:08pm Linda Lee: just didn't mind the mud one bit.
	5:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The album couple are so adorable. They're still together :-)
	5:10pm Linda Lee: it was. no longer. about a decade ago the old farm was sold to a developer & became 'bethel woods center for the arts' ~ which is very clean, very much controlled, very much commercial. people enjoy it. i haven't been.
	5:11pm Linda Lee: for example, i haven't a clue about the festivities actually taking place there this week. i only see the headlines.
	5:11pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I can see I will be favoriting everything today :)
	5:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I know the "official" (ie Michael Lang) thing got cancelled.
	5:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Peggy's gettin' groovy ;-)
	5:13pm Rich in Washington: Hiya, DJ GeorgyGirl!
	5:13pm Rich in Washington: Hello, Linda Lee!
	5:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hey Rich!!! How was the getaway? :-)
	5:14pm Linda Lee: right. he's not associated with 'bethel woods'. bethel woods has a board of trustees! :-)
	5:14pm Linda Lee: hi Rich!
	5:15pm Rich in Washington: The getaway was marvelous! Got to touch the ocean for the first time in way too long. It was lovely.
	5:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Imagine going back in time to the hippies on Yasgur's farm and telling them that 50 years in the future there'd be a board of trustees. lol
	5:16pm Linda Lee: i hear it now: 'what are you on, man?' :-D
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That sounds so nice :-) I cannot bear being away from the sea. Ideally, Brighton could do with some Vancouver style mountains, but at least I have water to live by :-)
	5:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Mind you .... imagine telling them that Reagan would be president one day ... !!!
	5:19pm Linda Lee: that one might be a little easier to swallow! :-D
	5:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: ;-)
	5:21pm Linda Lee: check out this Santana cover, though! superb! :-)
	5:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I just adore James Last. :-) I own more of his album than anyone else's. Admittedly, there are about 3 million different ones to get ;-)
	5:22pm Linda Lee: quite a number of people living in the area now, came for the festival & just never went home! that says a lot.
	5:23pm Linda Lee: wow, that says a lot about James Last, too!
	5:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It looks lovely in the film, I have to admit. :-)
	5:23pm Rich in Washington: Now I know why Fabio's show has a bit of jungle drums right before Mr. Giant Man!
	5:23pm Mr Fab: Speaking of Woodstock, james Last did cover Sly & The Family Stone ( as you probly know).
	5:24pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Rich, I was thinking the same thing!
	5:24pm DJ GeorgyGirl: If I didn't have the Peggy Lee cover I would have played the James Last one :-)
	5:25pm Linda Lee: the landscape is exactly the same. there's been no development, for very special reasons. this is the new york city watershed, meaning the city & 2 other metro areas get their water from our valleys! so development simply hasn't been allowed. when you travel the roads here it's very, very easy to imagine it's 1969. :-)
	5:25pm Rich in Washington: You should really visit Oregon's beaches if you ever get the chance, GeorgyGirl! It's a wonderful mix of wooded mountains and the ocean.
	5:26pm Linda Lee: more roads are paved. that's about it. :-D
	5:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I have pretty fond memories of Oregon from 1973 :-) We drove to Disneyland from B.C. :-) No beaches but lots of woods and forests and such. Gorgeous countryside :-)
	5:26pm Linda Lee: i've never been up that way. i'd love to go.
	5:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I used to love going to Seattle at weekends - I swear the air changed when we crossed the Canada/US border. :-)
	5:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda - the Pacific Northwest is truly gorgeous
	5:29pm Linda Lee: gosh, i know. yet another beautiful place in this world!
	5:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: We had the most fantastic sunset today - it went from this pale coral through tangerine to shocking pink and then lavender up to a denim blue. Stunning. :-) Nature rocks :-)
	5:32pm Linda Lee: one thing i must say for the catskills: summertime sunsets are phenomenal. yes, She does indeed rock.
	5:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I love when you talk about where you live - it sounds so blissful and calming :-)
	5:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: More Incredible String band on Friday! ;-)
	5:37pm Linda Lee: does the love show? :-) i will say that i was never really home until i found the catskills. that saved my life. :-)
	5:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I love it when you find a place or places that just make your soul ignite :-)
	5:38pm Linda Lee: yes. where you become more yourself all the time. so sorry i may have to leave, now that the money's found us.
	5:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Oh no!!! :-(
	5:40pm Linda Lee: yes. unless there's a miracle, i'm meant to take my leave!
	5:41pm Linda Lee: it's been a fabulous trip, though. i've been given more in my 30 years here, than many receive in all their lives. no complaints!
	5:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: You're an artist, is that right? Do you have a studio where you are?
	5:42pm Mr Fab: There were SO many lounge-y covers of "Spinning Wheel." It was jazzy enough for those cats.
	5:44pm Linda Lee: i've never had a studio to speak of. i've done mainly sound work, which is very portable.
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I feel like "Spinning Wheel" almost gets to be a lounge standard like Caravan and so on ;-)
	5:45pm Linda Lee: i've love having one, though! i'd love spreading out my noise-makers.
	5:46pm Linda Lee: i think you're right about 'Spinning Wheel'. once Tom Jones covered it, it became transcendent.
	5:46pm Linda Lee: really like the Wayne Shorter version ~ but i really like Wayne Shorter.
	5:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I had a studio for a year and loved it so much. My little sanctuary. :-) There was travel involved tho - not a great deal but we had a month of heavy snowfall and I couldn't get there and realised I couldn't really afford it any more. :-(
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I wasn't really familiar with Wayne Shorter before but now may have to get more into his work. I really like this version too :-)
	5:48pm Linda Lee: oh, do so! it's rewarding! marvelous stuff. about the studio: sure. that happens often. taking our leave of the crucial places.. never easy, often sensible.
	5:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: He's almost got a Vince Guaraldi vibe about him - and I love Vince! Need to explore :-)
	5:50pm Linda Lee: this definitely has that jazzy pop thing happening. Shorter is a bit larger than that sound. you'll see.
	5:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: :-)
	5:51pm Linda Lee: the Mob got into the acid business after prohibition & that's why there was so much bad acid available. typical trajectory.
	5:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Oh! Weather Report!!!! Ok - I definitely need to explore him more :-)
	5:52pm Rich in Washington: What a swinging set!
	5:52pm Linda Lee: without their distribution network the warning wouldn't have been necessary. in a sense the whole farm took the brown acid, didn't it.
	5:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I heard that it#s pretty much confirmed now that the rain at Woodstock was caused by Gov forces seeding the clouds to try and flush the hippies out. That backfired on them, eh? ;-)
	5:53pm Rich in Washington: Shorter also played on a Bill Laswell/Material album.
	5:54pm Mr Fab: Actually, Janis covered Erma.
	5:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Aha!!!! I did not know that!! That's a neat little full circle then :-)
	5:55pm Linda Lee: really! hadn't heard that one about the clouds. nothing shocks me, though. look for wayne shorter's album 'juju'. very nice work!
	5:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Goodness, Wayne Shorter's personal life is so sad :-(
	5:57pm Linda Lee: will we hear the famous arlo guthrie sound bite about the thruway? a main artery of commerce .. closed. that weekend the festival was the state's third largest city! really just phenomenal.
	5:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I wanted to but I couldn't find it! :-(
	5:59pm Linda Lee: listen to this Airplane cover, though. never mind the melancholia! :-)
	6:00pm Mr Fab: “Port-O-San”
	6:00pm Linda Lee: ahaha!! that was funny.
	6:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm going to have to tell the Port-O-San man's story on Friday ;-)
	6:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: He (or rather his wife) is one of two people who sued the film makers ;-)
	6:02pm Linda Lee: really? why?
	6:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: She told all her neighbours and friends that he was a CEO of a company .... which got her membership of various clubs. And then the film came out ...lol.
	6:03pm Linda Lee: so she sued the filmmakers? :-D that's hilarious!
	6:04pm Rich in Washington: This is fantastic!
	6:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: She didn't get anything - no surprise there. ;-) What a silly woman. lol
	6:06pm Linda Lee: poor thing.
	6:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: "I see your husband's big in toilets, Brenda..." ;-)
	6:08pm Linda Lee: wouldn't it be nice to sue Karma that way every time? :-D
	6:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Also, ANY excuse to play The 5th Dimension ;-)
	6:11pm Linda Lee: did you say Surrealistic Pillow was the Airplane's first lp, GG? 'twas not, alas. that was Jefferson Airplane Takes Off, with Signe Anderson on vocals.
	6:11pm Linda Lee: listen to that sound though. they did Laura Nyro so beautifully.
	6:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: You are absolutely 100% correct. :-) I knew as I was saying Surrealistic that something wasn't right .. Laura Nyro is everything <3
	6:14pm Linda Lee: this Ray Charles side is really, really delightful. was Melanie at the festival? she did come to play for us 25 years later!
	6:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm going to recreate and rejig a show I did a couple of years ago of Laura Nyro covers and demos :-)
	6:14pm Rich in Washington: I am a relative latecomer to Laura Nyro. Just fantastic.
	6:14pm Linda Lee: beautiful!! yes, do that!
	6:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: She was :-) I had tickets to see her in London about four years ago and the whole tour was cancelled at the last minute :-( She's an idol of mine :-)
	6:15pm Mr Fab: Had to look up the 5th Dimension lyrics. Theyre saying “fury's gonna take me to the glory goal.” Thought they said “glory...” er, sumthin else.
	6:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - I thought the same thing!!!!! lol
	6:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I watched the glass-blowing competition show on Netflix and that's what they call the special ovens. I could NOT keep a straight face!!
	6:17pm Linda Lee: gosh, i'm sorry to hear that. what happened for the 25th Anniversary was interesting. there were the usual campers at Yasgur's Farm, completely spontaneous, non-commercial thing. camping, singing. just great. a really nice gathering. then there was something 'official' & commercially promoted, put on up north ~ a nightmare. bad vibes all around. violence, arrests. so you see.
	6:18pm Linda Lee: Richie Havens came to sing for us at Yasgur's. real nice.
	6:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Oh! Is that the one that had the riots?
	6:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There's a VERY special nod to Richie Havens at the end of today's show :-)
	6:19pm Martinibomb: Hello DJ GG and fellow listeners.
	6:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello, MB!! :-)
	6:20pm Linda Lee: is that what they called it? riots? i called it a shit show! :-D hi MB!
	6:22pm Linda Lee: can't imagine who burned down the guy's hamburger stand.. trying to stir stuff up. it was not happening.
	6:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It seems a bit incongruous with the general vibe
	6:24pm Linda Lee: you know darn well there were intelligence operatives involved .. infiltrators .. 'bad actors', as they're called now. they just couldn't win!
	6:24pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I wouldn't want to mess with nearly half a million people! :-)
	6:25pm Linda Lee: personally, i don't think we've completed our conversation about woodstock & what actually happened there. what a triumph it was for the best in us all.
	6:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It really is the best example of what people can do when they come together as one <3
	6:26pm Linda Lee: the bad acid was supposed to nudge us into the negative too. still couldn't happen.
	6:26pm Linda Lee: oh man!!! listen to this Jackie De Shannon track!!! fabulous!!
	6:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I do genuinely love that the authorities tried EVERYTHING - and history shows a triumph for the counterculture ;-)
	6:27pm Linda Lee: absolutely right on. truly.
	6:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: More Band on Friday, too :-)
	6:29pm Linda Lee: very nice!
	6:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: By a weird coincidence, I'm about to play a track from the LP The Left Banke Too - which Rich posted about earlier today. Psychic minds! ;-)
	6:31pm Linda Lee: love this one! Byrds, right? are they really 'The Vetjables'??
	6:31pm Linda Lee: a woman's voice like this one just .. sends me.
	6:31pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yep :-) I think they were an SF group.
	6:31pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The harmonies on this are lovely :-)
	6:32pm Linda Lee: i love hearing joy. love it.
	6:32pm Linda Lee: but .. 'The Vetjables'???
	6:33pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I know ... I have no earthly idea what they were thinking with that one. lol
	6:34pm Linda Lee: vet.. jables. ..
	6:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Oh! Apparently the lady singer for The Vetjables was also their drummer :-)
	6:34pm Mr Fab: Was surprised to read in a book about "Punk" magazine that they suspect the FBI's 'cointelpro' program was messing with them, e.g. Stuff kept getting sent back for "insufficient postage" no matter how much they put on. All these weird things that after a while seemed more than coincidental. So perhaps that crap went on even to the punk era.
	6:35pm Linda Lee: that was a beautiful track by The Left Banke.
	6:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm an idiot ... I can't spell!
	6:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It's still a stupid name but I've spelled it correctly now ;-)
	6:36pm Linda Lee: oh! :-D i thought that was their spelling!
	6:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - WOW. That's insane and disturbing stuff.
	6:37pm Chuck: Most excellent show GeorgyGirl!!!
	6:37pm Linda Lee: i'm sure it's never really ended, Mr F. it just mutates.
	6:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you very much, Chuck :-)
	6:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The next track (Country Joe) is beautiful :-)
	6:40pm Chuck: Oh yes!!!
	6:40pm Linda Lee: god, i loved this song at the time he recorded it. he'd appear on tv to sing it.
	6:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It's so lovely and so sweet. For however brief it was, I hope he made her smile. :-)
	6:42pm Linda Lee: i know women who are similar, i think. a single man just couldn't manage her needs.
	6:43pm Linda Lee: i've seen her appearances with Dick Cavett recently on his talk show. what a bright woman. it's no surprise she was too much for Port Arthur.
	6:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I LOVE her Dick Cavett appearances!!!
	6:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There have long been rumours about them
	6:44pm Linda Lee: wasn't she marvelous!
	6:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: She's glorious, she really is <3
	6:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: MORE James Last, I hear you cry? Why of course ;-)
	6:46pm Linda Lee: there was definitely a nice rapport. :-) realize, too, that it was absolutely nothing for people to meet once & then make love. it was almost de rigeur! i wouldn't be shocked at all.
	6:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think it's refreshing that he's one of the few people who didn't treat her like a freak or an idiot, which many people seemed to do. To be fair he was always one of the better interviewers in general.
	6:49pm Linda Lee: my guess is, he didn't treat his guests like 'acts'. so they liked talking with him!
	6:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Exactly! :-)
	6:50pm Linda Lee: btw, i think 'aquarius' is another one of those 'new standards'.
	6:51pm Mr Fab: yep, and Proud Mary, another thrift-store lounge record standard
	6:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: :-)
	6:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Almost at the end of this week's LHT! Stick around for the wonderful Jan filling in for Stop Hitting Yourself :-)
	6:52pm Linda Lee: what a great show, GG!! what fun.
	6:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you :-) I've had a wonderful time chatting, too :-)
	6:53pm Linda Lee: just gave Bethel a wave for you. :-)
	6:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you! :-) <3
	6:54pm Linda Lee: thank you !
	6:56pm Chuck: I think John Lennon and Janis got drunk together one time I'm not sure how good the chemistry was?!?
	6:57pm Mr Fab: Thx for the groovy vibes GG, really cool show! And now stay tuned got another of Jan's Dutch treats, as his fills in on Stop Hitting Yourself for DJ Greg "Spacebrother."
	6:57pm Chuck: peace and love y'all..!..
	6:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm glad you enjoyed it! :-)
	6:58pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Great show, GG! I love the Sheena's spin on Woodstock :)
	6:58pm Martinibomb: Thanks for the music today
	6:58pm Linda Lee: peaceluv! . :-)
	7:00pm Rich in Washington: Great show, GeorgyGirl!
	9:25am Jan Turkenburg: What an odd version of Marrakesh Express ...
	9:26am Jan Turkenburg: ah... it's a demo .. ;)

	5:11pm Linda Lee: for example, i haven't a clue about the festivities actually taking place there this week. i only see the headlines.
	5:11pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I can see I will be favoriting everything today :)
	5:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I know the "official" (ie Michael Lang) thing got cancelled.
	5:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Peggy's gettin' groovy ;-)
	5:13pm Rich in Washington: Hiya, DJ GeorgyGirl!
	5:13pm Rich in Washington: Hello, Linda Lee!
	5:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hey Rich!!! How was the getaway? :-)
	5:14pm Linda Lee: right. he's not associated with 'bethel woods'. bethel woods has a board of trustees! :-)
	5:14pm Linda Lee: hi Rich!
	5:15pm Rich in Washington: The getaway was marvelous! Got to touch the ocean for the first time in way too long. It was lovely.
	5:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Imagine going back in time to the hippies on Yasgur's farm and telling them that 50 years in the future there'd be a board of trustees. lol

	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That sounds so nice :-) I cannot bear being away from the sea. Ideally, Brighton could do with some Vancouver style mountains, but at least I have water to live by :-)

	5:23pm Rich in Washington: Now I know why Fabio's show has a bit of jungle drums right before Mr. Giant Man!
	5:23pm Mr Fab: Speaking of Woodstock, james Last did cover Sly & The Family Stone ( as you probly know).
	5:24pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Rich, I was thinking the same thing!
	5:24pm DJ GeorgyGirl: If I didn't have the Peggy Lee cover I would have played the James Last one :-)
	5:25pm Linda Lee: the landscape is exactly the same. there's been no development, for very special reasons. this is the new york city watershed, meaning the city & 2 other metro areas get their water from our valleys! so development simply hasn't been allowed. when you travel the roads here it's very, very easy to imagine it's 1969. :-)
	5:25pm Rich in Washington: You should really visit Oregon's beaches if you ever get the chance, GeorgyGirl! It's a wonderful mix of wooded mountains and the ocean.
	5:26pm Linda Lee: more roads are paved. that's about it. :-D
	5:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I have pretty fond memories of Oregon from 1973 :-) We drove to Disneyland from B.C. :-) No beaches but lots of woods and forests and such. Gorgeous countryside :-)
	5:26pm Linda Lee: i've never been up that way. i'd love to go.
	5:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I used to love going to Seattle at weekends - I swear the air changed when we crossed the Canada/US border. :-)
	5:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda - the Pacific Northwest is truly gorgeous
	5:29pm Linda Lee: gosh, i know. yet another beautiful place in this world!
	5:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: We had the most fantastic sunset today - it went from this pale coral through tangerine to shocking pink and then lavender up to a denim blue. Stunning. :-) Nature rocks :-)
	5:32pm Linda Lee: one thing i must say for the catskills: summertime sunsets are phenomenal. yes, She does indeed rock.
	5:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I love when you talk about where you live - it sounds so blissful and calming :-)
	5:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: More Incredible String band on Friday! ;-)
	5:37pm Linda Lee: does the love show? :-) i will say that i was never really home until i found the catskills. that saved my life. :-)
	5:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I love it when you find a place or places that just make your soul ignite :-)
	5:38pm Linda Lee: yes. where you become more yourself all the time. so sorry i may have to leave, now that the money's found us.
	5:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Oh no!!! :-(
	5:40pm Linda Lee: yes. unless there's a miracle, i'm meant to take my leave!
	5:41pm Linda Lee: it's been a fabulous trip, though. i've been given more in my 30 years here, than many receive in all their lives. no complaints!
	5:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: You're an artist, is that right? Do you have a studio where you are?
	5:42pm Mr Fab: There were SO many lounge-y covers of "Spinning Wheel." It was jazzy enough for those cats.
	5:44pm Linda Lee: i've never had a studio to speak of. i've done mainly sound work, which is very portable.
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I feel like "Spinning Wheel" almost gets to be a lounge standard like Caravan and so on ;-)
	5:45pm Linda Lee: i've love having one, though! i'd love spreading out my noise-makers.
	5:46pm Linda Lee: i think you're right about 'Spinning Wheel'. once Tom Jones covered it, it became transcendent.
	5:46pm Linda Lee: really like the Wayne Shorter version ~ but i really like Wayne Shorter.
	5:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I had a studio for a year and loved it so much. My little sanctuary. :-) There was travel involved tho - not a great deal but we had a month of heavy snowfall and I couldn't get there and realised I couldn't really afford it any more. :-(
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I wasn't really familiar with Wayne Shorter before but now may have to get more into his work. I really like this version too :-)
	5:48pm Linda Lee: oh, do so! it's rewarding! marvelous stuff. about the studio: sure. that happens often. taking our leave of the crucial places.. never easy, often sensible.
	5:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: He's almost got a Vince Guaraldi vibe about him - and I love Vince! Need to explore :-)
	5:50pm Linda Lee: this definitely has that jazzy pop thing happening. Shorter is a bit larger than that sound. you'll see.
	5:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: :-)
	5:51pm Linda Lee: the Mob got into the acid business after prohibition & that's why there was so much bad acid available. typical trajectory.
	5:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Oh! Weather Report!!!! Ok - I definitely need to explore him more :-)
	5:52pm Rich in Washington: What a swinging set!
	5:52pm Linda Lee: without their distribution network the warning wouldn't have been necessary. in a sense the whole farm took the brown acid, didn't it.
	5:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I heard that it#s pretty much confirmed now that the rain at Woodstock was caused by Gov forces seeding the clouds to try and flush the hippies out. That backfired on them, eh? ;-)
	5:53pm Rich in Washington: Shorter also played on a Bill Laswell/Material album.
	5:54pm Mr Fab: Actually, Janis covered Erma.
	5:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Aha!!!! I did not know that!! That's a neat little full circle then :-)
	5:55pm Linda Lee: really! hadn't heard that one about the clouds. nothing shocks me, though. look for wayne shorter's album 'juju'. very nice work!
	5:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Goodness, Wayne Shorter's personal life is so sad :-(
	5:57pm Linda Lee: will we hear the famous arlo guthrie sound bite about the thruway? a main artery of commerce .. closed. that weekend the festival was the state's third largest city! really just phenomenal.
	5:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I wanted to but I couldn't find it! :-(
	5:59pm Linda Lee: listen to this Airplane cover, though. never mind the melancholia! :-)
	6:00pm Mr Fab: “Port-O-San”
	6:00pm Linda Lee: ahaha!! that was funny.
	6:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm going to have to tell the Port-O-San man's story on Friday ;-)
	6:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: He (or rather his wife) is one of two people who sued the film makers ;-)
	6:02pm Linda Lee: really? why?
	6:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: She told all her neighbours and friends that he was a CEO of a company .... which got her membership of various clubs. And then the film came out ...lol.
	6:03pm Linda Lee: so she sued the filmmakers? :-D that's hilarious!
	6:04pm Rich in Washington: This is fantastic!
	6:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: She didn't get anything - no surprise there. ;-) What a silly woman. lol
	6:06pm Linda Lee: poor thing.
	6:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: "I see your husband's big in toilets, Brenda..." ;-)
	6:08pm Linda Lee: wouldn't it be nice to sue Karma that way every time? :-D
	6:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Also, ANY excuse to play The 5th Dimension ;-)
	6:11pm Linda Lee: did you say Surrealistic Pillow was the Airplane's first lp, GG? 'twas not, alas. that was Jefferson Airplane Takes Off, with Signe Anderson on vocals.
	6:11pm Linda Lee: listen to that sound though. they did Laura Nyro so beautifully.
	6:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: You are absolutely 100% correct. :-) I knew as I was saying Surrealistic that something wasn't right .. Laura Nyro is everything <3
	6:14pm Linda Lee: this Ray Charles side is really, really delightful. was Melanie at the festival? she did come to play for us 25 years later!
	6:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm going to recreate and rejig a show I did a couple of years ago of Laura Nyro covers and demos :-)
	6:14pm Rich in Washington: I am a relative latecomer to Laura Nyro. Just fantastic.
	6:14pm Linda Lee: beautiful!! yes, do that!
	6:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: She was :-) I had tickets to see her in London about four years ago and the whole tour was cancelled at the last minute :-( She's an idol of mine :-)
	6:15pm Mr Fab: Had to look up the 5th Dimension lyrics. Theyre saying “fury's gonna take me to the glory goal.” Thought they said “glory...” er, sumthin else.
	6:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - I thought the same thing!!!!! lol
	6:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I watched the glass-blowing competition show on Netflix and that's what they call the special ovens. I could NOT keep a straight face!!
	6:17pm Linda Lee: gosh, i'm sorry to hear that. what happened for the 25th Anniversary was interesting. there were the usual campers at Yasgur's Farm, completely spontaneous, non-commercial thing. camping, singing. just great. a really nice gathering. then there was something 'official' & commercially promoted, put on up north ~ a nightmare. bad vibes all around. violence, arrests. so you see.
	6:18pm Linda Lee: Richie Havens came to sing for us at Yasgur's. real nice.
	6:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Oh! Is that the one that had the riots?
	6:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There's a VERY special nod to Richie Havens at the end of today's show :-)
	6:19pm Martinibomb: Hello DJ GG and fellow listeners.
	6:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello, MB!! :-)
	6:20pm Linda Lee: is that what they called it? riots? i called it a shit show! :-D hi MB!
	6:22pm Linda Lee: can't imagine who burned down the guy's hamburger stand.. trying to stir stuff up. it was not happening.
	6:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It seems a bit incongruous with the general vibe
	6:24pm Linda Lee: you know darn well there were intelligence operatives involved .. infiltrators .. 'bad actors', as they're called now. they just couldn't win!
	6:24pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I wouldn't want to mess with nearly half a million people! :-)
	6:25pm Linda Lee: personally, i don't think we've completed our conversation about woodstock & what actually happened there. what a triumph it was for the best in us all.
	6:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It really is the best example of what people can do when they come together as one <3
	6:26pm Linda Lee: the bad acid was supposed to nudge us into the negative too. still couldn't happen.
	6:26pm Linda Lee: oh man!!! listen to this Jackie De Shannon track!!! fabulous!!
	6:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I do genuinely love that the authorities tried EVERYTHING - and history shows a triumph for the counterculture ;-)
	6:27pm Linda Lee: absolutely right on. truly.
	6:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: More Band on Friday, too :-)
	6:29pm Linda Lee: very nice!
	6:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: By a weird coincidence, I'm about to play a track from the LP The Left Banke Too - which Rich posted about earlier today. Psychic minds! ;-)
	6:31pm Linda Lee: love this one! Byrds, right? are they really 'The Vetjables'??
	6:31pm Linda Lee: a woman's voice like this one just .. sends me.
	6:31pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yep :-) I think they were an SF group.
	6:31pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The harmonies on this are lovely :-)
	6:32pm Linda Lee: i love hearing joy. love it.
	6:32pm Linda Lee: but .. 'The Vetjables'???
	6:33pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I know ... I have no earthly idea what they were thinking with that one. lol
	6:34pm Linda Lee: vet.. jables. ..
	6:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Oh! Apparently the lady singer for The Vetjables was also their drummer :-)
	6:34pm Mr Fab: Was surprised to read in a book about "Punk" magazine that they suspect the FBI's 'cointelpro' program was messing with them, e.g. Stuff kept getting sent back for "insufficient postage" no matter how much they put on. All these weird things that after a while seemed more than coincidental. So perhaps that crap went on even to the punk era.
	6:35pm Linda Lee: that was a beautiful track by The Left Banke.
	6:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm an idiot ... I can't spell!
	6:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It's still a stupid name but I've spelled it correctly now ;-)
	6:36pm Linda Lee: oh! :-D i thought that was their spelling!
	6:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - WOW. That's insane and disturbing stuff.
	6:37pm Chuck: Most excellent show GeorgyGirl!!!
	6:37pm Linda Lee: i'm sure it's never really ended, Mr F. it just mutates.
	6:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you very much, Chuck :-)
	6:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The next track (Country Joe) is beautiful :-)
	6:40pm Chuck: Oh yes!!!
	6:40pm Linda Lee: god, i loved this song at the time he recorded it. he'd appear on tv to sing it.
	6:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It's so lovely and so sweet. For however brief it was, I hope he made her smile. :-)
	6:42pm Linda Lee: i know women who are similar, i think. a single man just couldn't manage her needs.
	6:43pm Linda Lee: i've seen her appearances with Dick Cavett recently on his talk show. what a bright woman. it's no surprise she was too much for Port Arthur.
	6:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I LOVE her Dick Cavett appearances!!!
	6:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There have long been rumours about them
	6:44pm Linda Lee: wasn't she marvelous!
	6:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: She's glorious, she really is <3
	6:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: MORE James Last, I hear you cry? Why of course ;-)
	6:46pm Linda Lee: there was definitely a nice rapport. :-) realize, too, that it was absolutely nothing for people to meet once & then make love. it was almost de rigeur! i wouldn't be shocked at all.
	6:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think it's refreshing that he's one of the few people who didn't treat her like a freak or an idiot, which many people seemed to do. To be fair he was always one of the better interviewers in general.
	6:49pm Linda Lee: my guess is, he didn't treat his guests like 'acts'. so they liked talking with him!
	6:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Exactly! :-)
	6:50pm Linda Lee: btw, i think 'aquarius' is another one of those 'new standards'.
	6:51pm Mr Fab: yep, and Proud Mary, another thrift-store lounge record standard
	6:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: :-)
	6:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Almost at the end of this week's LHT! Stick around for the wonderful Jan filling in for Stop Hitting Yourself :-)
	6:52pm Linda Lee: what a great show, GG!! what fun.
	6:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you :-) I've had a wonderful time chatting, too :-)
	6:53pm Linda Lee: just gave Bethel a wave for you. :-)
	6:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you! :-) <3
	6:54pm Linda Lee: thank you !
	6:56pm Chuck: I think John Lennon and Janis got drunk together one time I'm not sure how good the chemistry was?!?
	6:57pm Mr Fab: Thx for the groovy vibes GG, really cool show! And now stay tuned got another of Jan's Dutch treats, as his fills in on Stop Hitting Yourself for DJ Greg "Spacebrother."
	6:57pm Chuck: peace and love y'all..!..
	6:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm glad you enjoyed it! :-)
	6:58pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Great show, GG! I love the Sheena's spin on Woodstock :)
	6:58pm Martinibomb: Thanks for the music today
	6:58pm Linda Lee: peaceluv! . :-)
	7:00pm Rich in Washington: Great show, GeorgyGirl!
	9:25am Jan Turkenburg: What an odd version of Marrakesh Express ...
	9:26am Jan Turkenburg: ah... it's a demo .. ;)
