	♥ 11:08pm Kat in Chicago: Hi Scraps. I agree with both of your statements!
	♥ 11:08pm efd: hey Scraps, nice to see you! Happy to have another "Tiny Steps" and "Isn't It Time" appreciator on hand. :)
	♥ 11:08pm Kat in Chicago: I barely even remember hearing "Tiny Steps" when it came out, but it is ridiculously good.
	11:09pm CC: Yeah... that's who I meant!!!

	♥ 11:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: Where's Clay Pigeon with his cannon blast sound effects?
	11:16pm Steve: EFD, it's tough to name my fave Elvis Costello song. I would say it's a toss up between 'Accidents will happen' or 'New Amsterdam' ?!
	11:17pm CC: Marc15... God rest Art Bell's soul..!..
	♥ 11:18pm Kat in Chicago: Steve, those are great choices too.

	11:21pm Marc15: @CC: Yes! May God Rest Art Bell’s Good Soul
	11:25pm Marc15: @nardo Is Nick The Bard doing a fill-in soon. He likes playing Toto
	11:25pm nardo: @efd that is understandable. I will make the admission that I saw Toto in 1980.
	♥ 11:26pm efd: @Marc15 Nick is on every week! Sunday overnight/early Monday at 3am!
	11:27pm johnk77: toto was amazingly less than the sum of its parts great show selecter @efd

	♥ 11:28pm efd: yeah I didn't realize it was this bad!
	11:28pm Marc15: Didn’t he do an entire show (or close to an entire show) where he only played “Africa” by Toto?
	♥ 11:29pm Kat in Chicago: it got a lil better
	♥ 11:29pm Tome: it's the ELO tune you can just sink your teeth into ,, that's what vinyl's all about !<>!
	♥ 11:29pm Kat in Chicago: ...and then... haha!
	♥ 11:29pm efd: a very lil!
	11:29pm nardo: @Marc15 I will keep that in mind. Never heard this ELO song with the TARDIS effects added in.
	11:30pm Steve: Yeahhhh! Peter Frampton !
	♥ 11:31pm Kat in Chicago: rolls eyes
	11:31pm Scraps: oh man....
	11:31pm Marc15: I usually have to catch his shows on the archives because of the time
	♥ 11:31pm Tome: Framton had it down before ie.. Phil Collins haha !<.!
	♥ 11:32pm efd: I really don't believe in guilty pleasures, but if I did.... this song would be one.
	♥ 11:32pm Kat in Chicago: Maybe if I didn't love the original the way I do.
	11:32pm Scraps: love the original.... a lot....
	11:32pm Marc15: @efd I want to thank you for your show tonight. You brought back some good memories from my childhood and early teens
	♥ 11:33pm Tome: if I had a choice between this and "Cant Hurry Love" ? I'd take this !<>!

	11:39pm Steve: It's a great Peter Frampton, EFD. Not a guilty pleasure.

	11:46pm Steve: This particular Andy Kim record always sounded likea lost Neal Diamond song
	11:47pm CC: Yeah baby..!.. very Neil Diamondish!!!!
	♥ 11:47pm Kat in Chicago: That never occurred to me, but I can TOTALLY hear it now
	11:47pm Marc15: @steve I thought I was the only one who thought that
	11:48pm CC: Neil's album 12 Songs should have been the top of the pops!!!
	11:51pm Scraps: Rubberband Man was my #1 song of 1976.
	11:53pm Steve: Kindred souls
	11:53pm Steve: Mo Mo Mo !
	11:54pm Marc15: This song was used in a Target Commercial a couple of Christmases ago
	11:55pm Marc15: @Steve Yes!
	11:56pm Scraps: Marc15, four or five “reviewers” on rateyourmusic noted Andy Kim => Neil Diamond. It’s gone public!
	11:56pm Steve: That's right, Marc15 !
	11:57pm Marc15: @Steve Yes I see it has
	♥ 11:57pm Kat in Chicago: I prefer this "Dancing With Myself" to the Billy Idol one because it's pro-dancing solo rather than getting all whiny about it
	11:59pm Marc15: @efd: Bravo, Maestro, Bravo! Take a bow
	♥ 11:59pm Kat in Chicago: Thanks, Evan!
	11:59pm CC: Most enjoyable!!!

	♥ 11:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: Where's Clay Pigeon with his cannon blast sound effects?
	11:16pm Steve: EFD, it's tough to name my fave Elvis Costello song. I would say it's a toss up between 'Accidents will happen' or 'New Amsterdam' ?!

	11:25pm Marc15: @nardo Is Nick The Bard doing a fill-in soon. He likes playing Toto
	11:25pm nardo: @efd that is understandable. I will make the admission that I saw Toto in 1980.
	♥ 11:26pm efd: @Marc15 Nick is on every week! Sunday overnight/early Monday at 3am!

	♥ 11:29pm Kat in Chicago: it got a lil better
	♥ 11:29pm Tome: it's the ELO tune you can just sink your teeth into ,, that's what vinyl's all about !<>!

	♥ 11:31pm Kat in Chicago: rolls eyes
	11:31pm Scraps: oh man....
	11:31pm Marc15: I usually have to catch his shows on the archives because of the time
	♥ 11:31pm Tome: Framton had it down before ie.. Phil Collins haha !<.!
	♥ 11:32pm efd: I really don't believe in guilty pleasures, but if I did.... this song would be one.
	♥ 11:32pm Kat in Chicago: Maybe if I didn't love the original the way I do.
	11:32pm Scraps: love the original.... a lot....
	11:32pm Marc15: @efd I want to thank you for your show tonight. You brought back some good memories from my childhood and early teens
	♥ 11:33pm Tome: if I had a choice between this and "Cant Hurry Love" ? I'd take this !<>!

	11:47pm CC: Yeah baby..!.. very Neil Diamondish!!!!
	♥ 11:47pm Kat in Chicago: That never occurred to me, but I can TOTALLY hear it now
	11:47pm Marc15: @steve I thought I was the only one who thought that
	11:48pm CC: Neil's album 12 Songs should have been the top of the pops!!!
	11:51pm Scraps: Rubberband Man was my #1 song of 1976.
	11:53pm Steve: Kindred souls
	11:53pm Steve: Mo Mo Mo !
	11:54pm Marc15: This song was used in a Target Commercial a couple of Christmases ago
	11:55pm Marc15: @Steve Yes!
	11:56pm Scraps: Marc15, four or five “reviewers” on rateyourmusic noted Andy Kim => Neil Diamond. It’s gone public!
	11:56pm Steve: That's right, Marc15 !
	11:57pm Marc15: @Steve Yes I see it has
	♥ 11:57pm Kat in Chicago: I prefer this "Dancing With Myself" to the Billy Idol one because it's pro-dancing solo rather than getting all whiny about it
