Listener comments!
	10:03pm Matt from New Orleans: I’m here Kris. Larry did a boogaloo show last night.
	10:04pm Kris Holmes: Hi Matt. I missed Larry last night. I saw some of the tracks though. He always plays good stuff.
	10:04pm still b/p: This is happeh musics.
	🥁 10:07pm nostrangerer: I was about to say that voice doesn't sound like Lee Morgan, the the playlist refreshed to show Kai and now hear him soloing.
	10:09pm Matt from New Orleans: There’s a part of sidewinder that seemed to quote the beat goes on
	10:10pm Doug Schulkind: The Long Way is the right way. Good evening, fellow travelers!
	10:10pm Matt from New Orleans: Or the opposite as sidewinder is older
	10:11pm Little Danny: Evenin' Kris and all!
	10:12pm Kris Holmes: Hello Doug, Dan.
	10:19pm chresti: Foolking soul!
	10:20pm chresti: Hi Kris and long home folks!
	10:22pm Kris Holmes: Hello Chresti
	10:22pm Little Danny: Heya good chresti
	10:24pm chresti: Hi Danny
	10:25pm Franco Twinkie: Hello Kris.
	10:26pm Little Danny: Have you ever heard Ruby's LP on Zodiac from around that time, Kris? I haven't, definitely curious tho
	10:26pm chresti: wow kettle drums! @He don't really love you
	10:28pm Kris Holmes: I have never had the LP Dan but I might have the mp3s saved somewhere, I remember it being good.
	10:32pm Matt from New Orleans: I like the first one better than the second Zodiac album. The second one was recorded in Memphis and they were trying for an early 70s stax sound but just couldn’t nail it.
	10:33pm Matt from New Orleans: Both of the zodiac albums were reissued in the Netherlands last year
	10:34pm Little Danny: Thanks Matt. Makes sense re: 1st vs. 2nd LPs
	10:37pm Matt from New Orleans: It wasn’t cut at Stax but in Memphis at Universal
	10:38pm Matt from New Orleans: I was saying that the sound was sort of Carla Thomas early 70s
	10:40pm Matt from New Orleans: I can’t even remember which tracks I liked over others as I haven’t listened to them in years. I downloaded an LP rip of Black Ruby a while back as there was no cd issue at that time.
	10:41pm Kris Holmes: Ah gotcha, in any case, I'll make a note to go revisit but will prob forget to do so. Everyone was all about Black Ruby back in the late 90s/early 00s, it was a grai, still is I guess
	10:45pm Matt from New Orleans: Black Ruby is going for about $200 for a VG+ copy with a bad sleeve and another $60 for a VG+ LP/sleeve
	10:46pm Matt from New Orleans: On discogs
	10:50pm Kris Holmes: that's a pretty wide price bracket lol good ol discogs
	10:57pm Matt from New Orleans: Jerry Blavat is an interesting character. Suspected mobster.
	10:58pm Matt from New Orleans: Jerry Blavat is an interesting character. Lots of organized crime connections.
	10:58pm Matt from New Orleans: The page was acting weird. Sorry about that.
	11:00pm Kris Holmes: sounds interesting but not uncommon for the time?
	11:01pm Matt from New Orleans: a little more than some but not totally out of the blue
	11:04pm Little Danny: Man I love this Citations. That echo
	11:05pm Kris Holmes: Reverb set to 10 lol
	11:14pm Matt from New Orleans: I’m putting the phone down Kris but will keep listening.
	11:15pm Franco Twinkie: Chubsters, chubettes,chuberinos....Chubukos!
	11:16pm Kris Holmes: good night Matt
	11:22pm Little Danny: Wow, conga rhythms way up front on this Pauline & Bobby. Love it
	11:23pm Kris Holmes: I don't think Bobby Jones or Pauline Chivers every cut a dud 45.
	11:25pm Little Danny: Didn't know either artist!
	11:27pm Little Danny: Terribly hot and dry summer out here too. A browner shade of pale
	11:30pm Little Danny: Reminiscent of the Ch(y)mes' also-great "My Baby's Gone Away." Same label. Man those harmonies are gorgeous
	11:30pm Kris Holmes: so much brown grass here
	11:30pm Kris Holmes: Chimes/Chymes, same
	11:31pm Little Danny: Yessir
	11:42pm Dean: Man, Chris Strachwitz first(?) recorded this guy in '65. I hang out at Strachwitz's record store, and he's there a good percentage of the time. He's a treasure.
	11:44pm Little Danny: @Dean: he really is a treasure
	11:45pm Little Danny: Man, I don't know why anyone would dislike the accordion, either
	11:45pm Dean: He and I share a birthday, too. But he has a few years on me. He's also really tall.
	11:47pm Dean: Cripes, he was recording Sonny Simmons around the time I was born!
	11:48pm Kris Holmes: Strachwitz is awesome, total legend
	🥁 11:50pm nostrangerer: Thanks for tunes tonight. Good funky time had by all.
	11:51pm Little Danny: I've spent many many many hours at the Strachwitz Frontera Collection, an incredible indexed website of his Latin music collection with images, audio, discographical info, etc. frontera.library.ucla.edu See, Dean?! Technology is sometimes on the right side of the fence
	11:57pm Little Danny: Great 'n' rare one this Castro. Thanks for the tunes Kris!
	11:58pm Dean: Dude, I started to learn to program in '76. I ran a network and enterprise system during the '90s. I know the advantages and limitations of technology, just as I know to use a can opener to open cans, rather than to hammer a nail. The problem is our boundless capacity to abuse technology, or take it for granted, or assume it will solve our problems. As a librarian, I assure you that what makes that Frontera site work is not merely the technology. It's the intellectual added value in, e.g., the metadata. There's this corridor leading west from the main room in Strachwitz's record store to the restrooms and so forth. There you'll find boxes labeled something like, "Rarities from Chris's collection." They consist of boxes of his record collection, including stuff like the Frontera material, that he's unloading. Kind of amazing.
	12:00am Little Danny: Thanks Dean, an excellent response
