Listener comments!
	9:57pm Matt from New Orleans: Hey Kris. I’m here a little early.
	10:02pm chresti: Hi Kris and Matt 'n home people!
	10:04pm Kris Holmes: Hi team!
	10:05pm fleep: Plant-based greetings, Kris and Homebodys
	10:06pm Matt from New Orleans: Look at you with the faders!
	10:09pm Uncle Michael: Hey, hey!
	10:09pm Matt from New Orleans: The owners of this label really went all out when choosing a name
	10:10pm Kris Holmes: ha, indeed
	10:11pm chresti: Even sang with Dinah Shore!
	10:13pm Uncle Michael: How many songs name-check Merv Griffin?
	10:14pm Little Danny: Hey Kris, hey y'all. Love that Bettye Swann track
	10:15pm Kris Holmes: Hi Dan, it's a classic.
	10:17pm Matt from New Orleans: Headman was written by JJ Cale
	10:17pm Jon: Really enjoying this set!
	10:23pm Jon: I used to teach in the Dallas area. You’re right - when there is just a slight bit of ice on the roads, NOBODY goes to school!
	10:24pm Matt from New Orleans: This is a classic Kris
	10:31pm fleep: Someone could do an entire set of Green Onions covers. This should happen.
	10:31pm Kris Holmes: i might be able to get close
	10:34pm Little Danny: I could get close if I included "Green Onions" soundalikes.
	10:38pm Matt from New Orleans: Ain’t no scallions allowed Danny. Only Green Onions!
	10:38pm Kris Holmes: oh definitely
	10:38pm Little Danny: Man I love '60s Prestige jazz 45s
	10:38pm Kris Holmes: i bought a few this weekend, some nice ones.
	10:39pm Kris Holmes: Dan, Dominic & I lamented over your not being there.
	10:39pm Little Danny: Haha Matt
	10:45pm Matt from New Orleans: In the late 90s, Prestige tried to capitalize on the brief rise and fall of acid jazz and reissued a bunch of albums as legends of acid jazz. Willis Jackson had some.
	10:46pm Matt from New Orleans: This Ramsey Lewis track is a fave
	10:51pm Little Danny: Thanks Kris! Nice to know I was missed
	10:52pm Little Danny: Great compilations with some of the worst '90s design
	10:55pm Little Danny: Jackson's 10-minute live version of "Jive Samba" on Jackson's Action is so epic. You know it, Kris?
	10:55pm Matt from New Orleans: Agreed on the design Danny
	10:58pm Little Danny: Go Misa!
	10:58pm Matt from New Orleans: Good for her.
	10:58pm Matt from New Orleans: I know Jive Samba Danny. It’s a good jam.
	10:59pm Little Danny: For me ARC is way too many record collectors in one place. It makes me itch
	11:00pm Little Danny: Indeed, Matt
	11:01pm Kris Holmes: LOL Dan
	11:03pm Matt from New Orleans: I saw Mary Weiss at the Ponderosa Stomp. She was really cool.
	11:06pm Little Danny: There's an amazing mid-'60s live "Great Big Kiss" on YouTube with some inspired vocals from Weiss & co.
	11:09pm Matt from New Orleans: I grew up not far from where the Shangri-Las grew up. Many years later of course.
	11:14pm Matt from New Orleans: Kris agreed on Charles Brimmer
	11:16pm Little Danny: Probably! A lot of unhealthy men in one place
	11:17pm Kris Holmes: oh yeah, so much sickness
	11:20pm Dean: I don't know ARC, and I probably don't want to know it, but we used to have a blast at the Capitol Records building (Hollywood) parking lot record sale early mornings during the '70s.
	11:22pm fleep: Do collectible records with surface noise get cleaned, or does that mess up the value, like the patina on an antique
	11:24pm Matt from New Orleans: I’m laying down and will continue listening. Have a good night everyone.
	11:25pm Kris Holmes: nah, they get tossed in the trash, you can't clean scratches
	11:27pm fleep: There are how-to videos about cleaning records, not scratches, just x years of dust in the grooves, with wood glue and/or solvents. Probably not worth the effort, as you say
	11:27pm Dean: You can't clean scratches, but you can clean particulate matter. I took my copy of Sequentia's first traversal of Ordo Virtutum to my then fave stereo store. We played it once, then cleaned it on the Keith Monk machine. Night and day.
	11:28pm Franco Twinkie: Dean, I too would go to Capitol. It helped if I was already in Hollywood for a show. I was to lazy to drive from Pasadena otherwise.
	11:30pm Dean: Man, we drove from the eastern end of LA County. Loved that meet. I remember bumping into Armando Gallo there. He was the unofficial photographer of Genesis.
	11:34pm Kris Holmes: Sleep, I most definitely clean other stuff that isn't scratches off my records
	11:35pm Kris Holmes: *Fleep......darn auto-correct
	11:35pm Franco Twinkie: A favorite memory was trying to get into a box of promising looking 45's that was been hogged by some dopey looking kid with unwashed hair in suede saddle shoes. A few years later he was fronting his own band. It was Jeffrey Lee Pierce.
	11:40pm Dean: Yup, that was the Capitol Records parking lot swap meet!
	11:40pm fleep: Kris, thanks for the effort, some of these sides have partied mighty hard
	11:41pm Kris Holmes: indeed, we can only go to battle with the records we have, not the records we wish we had :-(
	11:46pm Franco Twinkie: I only have one record on Goldband - The Starvation Waltz by Hobo Bertrand.
	11:47pm Kris Holmes: there exists a LOT of records on Goldband
	11:54pm Franco Twinkie: It was short and sweet for me tonight, Kris. Thank you just the same!
	11:54pm Kris Holmes: thanks for being here
	12:00am fleep: And we're doing it! Thanks, Kris.
