Listener comments!
	9:58pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi Kris and everyone
	9:58pm Kris Holmes: Hi Matt
	10:02pm chresti: Hi Kris and home bound! Hi Matt
	10:02pm Little Danny: greetings all long way holmsers
	10:02pm Matt from New Orleans: I saw you don’t have to go to back to school till next fall
	10:03pm Kris Holmes: Hi Chresti, Hi Dan. Correct Matt, online school only for the next 7 weeks.
	10:06pm Matt from New Orleans: I wonder if kids will be able to play horns when you go back. From experience, I know spittle did fly.
	10:07pm Kris Holmes: That all depends on how this plays out
	10:08pm chresti: I'd like to hear Boogaloo Down Broadway, again please.
	10:08pm StringOFperils: Hello. Lockdown sounds sounding great.
	10:10pm Matt from New Orleans: How close are we to returning to the letter C?
	10:10pm Little Danny: Wow, this Marvelettes is cool and new to me. What a strange and attractive vocal style/recording technique.
	10:11pm Kris Holmes: Boogaloo Down Broadway & The Horse = a running joke here hahahahahaha
	10:12pm Matt from New Orleans: Smokey Robinson Danny
	10:12pm Kris Holmes: Matt, 4 shows-ish
	10:12pm Matt from New Orleans: Grace Jones does a version as well
	10:12pm Little Danny: Ohhh, wow. Re: Smokey.
	10:13pm Little Danny: What record do you own the most copies of, Kris?
	10:14pm Kris Holmes: Not sure right now Dan, maybe a quarantine project for me.....
	10:14pm Little Danny: @Matt: I thought you were suggesting that Smokey did the vocal himself.
	10:15pm Matt from New Orleans: He wrote and produced it
	10:15pm Franco Twinkie: Hello assembled Tuesday soulsters!
	10:15pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi Franco
	10:15pm Little Danny: @Matt: right. I'm just trying to figure out the idiosyncratic leading vocal.
	10:18pm Franco Twinkie: And a couple over here as well. Yellow label Phil L.A. Of Soul with a fish bone, right?
	10:19pm Little Danny: I imagine Mr. Fine Wine must feel that way about "Downtown Soulville." I had a Latin jazz/mambo/boogaloo-oriented radio show back in Austin. Every week I started with Cal Tjader's "Soul Sauce" 45. Man I tired of that quickly.
	10:21pm Kris Holmes: I wonder if Matt still plays the same copy of Downtown Soulville every show?
	10:21pm chresti: Boyoyoyoing!
	10:21pm Kris Holmes: Hi Franco, yep, fish filet
	10:22pm Matt from New Orleans: I’ve addressed that Kris. I think he sayif he’s on his fourth copy after all these years.
	10:22pm Matt from New Orleans: Said he’s
	10:22pm Kris Holmes: You know what, I'm not certain that I already have Locking Up My Heart, I might be able to file this one!!!!
	10:23pm Little Danny: The quiet satisfaction of filing 45s. I'm doing it as I listen.
	10:26pm Kris Holmes: Dan that PC 45 went huge for being cracked!!!
	10:26pm still b/p: Know who else covered The Hunter Gets Captured By The Game? Jerry Garcia.
	10:27pm Little Danny: Thanks Kris. Glad to have it out of the house. Cracked records give me the heebie-jeebies
	10:28pm Carmichael: Heya Kris and soul survivors.
	10:28pm Kris Holmes: A couple of great results on the ones I was watching
	10:29pm Kris Holmes: The real question I didn't ask though was did you find it cracked or did you accidentally do it yourself?
	10:30pm Little Danny: Garcia's version of "Hunter Gets Captured..." has a cool almost soft-rock vibe. I dig it.
	10:30pm Little Danny: It came cracked Kris.
	10:30pm Franco Twinkie: That's right still b/p. The Legion Of Mary. I saw them twice in 1975, it was mostly soul covers.
	10:30pm Kris Holmes: phew
	🥁 10:32pm JtotheK: hi mr holmes, fellow chatters.
	10:32pm Kris Holmes: Gonna be the greatest run on this 45 ever if the 3 copies I bought before lockdown all play without distortion!!! 2 out of 3 so far.......
	10:32pm Kris Holmes: Hi Jason
	🥁 10:33pm JtotheK: And hold on - Clarence Carter, on WFMU -- and it's NOT strokin' !!! wha???
	10:33pm Matt from New Orleans: I almost forgot. Someone bootlegged the Syl Johnson doc from a few years back. Never got distribution. youtu.be...
	10:33pm Little Danny: I wish Legion of Mary had recorded a studio album.
	10:37pm Little Danny: Not mandatory out here!
	10:37pm Little Danny: The facemasks.
	🥁 10:38pm JtotheK: I continue to fall further and further behind on movie watching, documentaries and all. The Criterion Channel has 'Columbia Noir' this month and I've yet to watch any. Though I still hope to soon!
	10:38pm Little Danny: I could listen to you doing a Texas accent for hours, Kris.
	10:38pm Franco Twinkie: Me too, Danny. Martin Fierro added some smooth buttery sax. I have a transparency I took of Jerry and Martin in Venice.....someplace.
	10:38pm Matt from New Orleans: Have to wear masks here
	10:39pm Little Danny: @franco: I guess there was a lot of crossover with the roster of the Jerry Garcia Band.
	10:39pm Franco Twinkie: Not in Los Angeles I'm sorry to say.
	10:39pm Matt from New Orleans: I’ve probably seen them all Jason. Do you want some suggestions?
	10:41pm Franco Twinkie: I never saw the JGB.
	10:41pm Kris Holmes: Look out for my name in the credits of the Syl doco & for my copy of his first Federal 45 rolling across the screen
	🥁 10:41pm JtotheK: Sure Matt, I'll add to the queue, even if I don't watch soon the movies likely will rotate back in eventually. Thanks!
	10:41pm Little Danny: Awesome. What was your involvement, Kris?
	10:42pm Kris Holmes: Wondering how passable my Texas accent is.......I know my Boston accent is pretty sweet
	10:42pm Kris Holmes: Money plus 45 label scans
	10:42pm Matt from New Orleans: I just reviewed the list Jason. I have in fact seen them all.
	10:45pm Little Danny: @Kris: Excellent. I'm now on the lookout for Johnson's "She's So Fine - I Just Gotta Make Her Mine" 45 on Federal, btw. Do you know it?
	10:47pm Matt from New Orleans: I do Danny. I have it on the Numero Box.
	10:47pm Little Danny: Dang what a groove here on "Just Like a Woman"
	10:47pm Matt from New Orleans: Jason have you seen any of them?
	10:48pm Little Danny: That's a fun comp, Matt. I keep forgetting it had Syl's pre-Twinight recordings too.
	10:48pm Kris Holmes: That is the only one of his Federal 45s I am still hunting to complete my collection
	🥁 10:49pm JtotheK: Matt I actually haven't seen most of them...
	10:49pm Kris Holmes: One overpriced copy been sitting on Discogs for years :(
	10:50pm Matt from New Orleans: The $50 promo?
	10:51pm Kris Holmes: yeah
	10:51pm Little Danny: @Kris: definitely of his tougher Federal discs to pull. $50 is not a terrible price for it.
	10:52pm Kris Holmes: But I feel like it should roll up for around $35 or less sooner or later
	10:52pm Little Danny: I agree.
	10:52pm Kris Holmes: Same with the only one on Twinight I still need
	🥁 10:53pm JtotheK: Re: Syl Johnson 45s -- back in 2015 I had a chance to procure 'Do You Know What Love Is' on Special Agent Records. It was beyond my budget. And now I see one on Discogs for 600. Ugh.
	10:54pm Little Danny: Slow death in discogs jail.
	10:55pm Little Danny: Great double-sider either way.
	10:56pm Matt from New Orleans: I guess Kris dropped out
	10:56pm Little Danny: Yeah that was weird. Refresh your player/app. He's back.
	10:58pm Little Danny: I just played my fave Hi Records Syl Johnson 45 last week. ("The Love You Left Behind.")
	10:58pm northguineahills: When in a dispute, never call your spouse the C-word (yes, I called her Canadian) (we made up).
	🥁 10:59pm JtotheK: Continuing on with my tales of 45s beyond my budget that I had a chance at -- the same shop on the same day I had to pass on Syl 'Do You Know' I also had to pass on The Topics 'Have Your Fun' on Dream Records.
	10:59pm Little Danny: You are definitely back on Kris.
	11:00pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy
	🥁 11:00pm JtotheK: I'm glad that I have a note that I could have purchased both of them on the same day 5 years ago, so that 5 years later I could be reminded. I should have continued that habit. Good grief.
	11:01pm Little Danny: I dig the spooky guitar in the background of this Masqueraders.
	11:02pm Little Danny: Another artist with some Hi Records outings, the Masqueraders.
	11:02pm Kris Holmes: I have the Special Agent thankfully, bought it off a good friend a few years back
	11:03pm Phillippe Bastille: I see on the playlist that we have records from the Chess and Checker labels. Since chess is generally regarded to be harder that checkers, are the songs recorded on the Chess label harder to play than the ones on the Checker label? This is the kind of stuff that keeps me up at night.
	11:04pm Kris Holmes: hahahaha, good question Phillippe
	11:05pm Little Danny: Think harder, Phillippe. It'll come to you.
	11:06pm Phillippe Bastille: Thank goodness there isn't a 3D Chess label like that game on Star Trek
	11:06pm Matt from New Orleans: Jason after pondering the list I have to say they’re all worth watching. I’d go by actor, director, or plot description. Whomever curated that list did a good job.
	11:07pm Little Danny: Tri-Dimensional Chess Records.
	🥁 11:08pm JtotheK: When that service launched they started with a bunch of Noir, including Mildred Pierce which I started watching, but it was late and I didn't finish it, and then it was off the service - and it hasn't been added back yet!
	11:10pm Matt from New Orleans: Mildred Pierce is a good’un
	11:13pm Matt from New Orleans: There was a more solid remake with Kate Winslet & Guy Pearce
	11:14pm Matt from New Orleans: Just solid I was writing something additional and forgot to delete more
	🥁 11:16pm JtotheK: Matt, that's right! The Mildred w/Kate Winslet is on HBO, I'll add to the watchlist...
	11:17pm Matt from New Orleans: Vinyl nation was pretty good
	11:18pm still b/p: openculture website has some noir entries watchable for free. Made some notes but haven't viewed films yet.
	11:20pm Little Danny: Of course now that you play it sounds way better to me, Kris.
	11:20pm Kris Holmes: hahahaha, Dan you always say that!!!!!
	11:22pm Little Danny: haha you are correct sir
	11:24pm chresti: Have not watched movies in a while.
	11:24pm Matt from New Orleans: SBP I’ve seen all of these www.openculture.com...
	11:26pm chresti: The thing with the classics, I can watch them again and again.
	11:26pm Little Danny: Thanks for that link, Matt. I dig the super noir-ish noir atmospherics; any of those titles you'd particularly recommend?
	11:28pm chresti: Beat the Devil, that's one I have not seen. I recommend it.
	🥁 11:29pm WR: Hursh you mouth coonskin alligator hide calling me.
	11:29pm Little Danny: Ah love this Traits 45. Both sides.
	11:30pm Kris Holmes: I apparently am going to need an immediate upgrade
	11:31pm Matt from New Orleans: Kansas City Confidential, Detour, DOA, Scarlet Street, Big Combo, Hitchhiker, Too Late for Tears
	11:32pm Little Danny: Thanks Matt. Duly noted.
	11:36pm Little Danny: 'night Kris and all
	11:36pm Matt from New Orleans: Later gator
	🥁 11:37pm JtotheK: good evening Danny!
	🥁 11:37pm WR: Doug doesn't mind mentioning other indie stations. I have hard time listening to most of the OZ djs, but live broadcasts they do are sometimes stellar.
	11:38pm Kris Holmes: Good night Dan
	11:39pm Kris Holmes: ah good to know
	11:41pm Matt from New Orleans: They’re also doing a live stream of piano night as a fundraiser on Monday. That’s a fundraiser they do every year.
	11:43pm Matt from New Orleans: Sadly I have to agree with WR. I used to be a devotee but the internal bullshit at the station turned me off to it.
	11:48pm Matt from New Orleans: I have a few friends that are DJs. I’ll listen to their shows if I remember. I wished they’d archive the shows like WFMU. That’s an amazing resource here.
	11:49pm Matt from New Orleans: That was way too hard to type. Time to put the phone down. Lots of CHOONS tonight. Bye everyone.
	11:50pm Kris Holmes: night matt
	11:51pm chresti: Bye Matt.
	11:52pm Phillippe Bastille: Thanks Kris! I enjoyed it (both the easy and hard songs!)
	🥁 11:55pm JtotheK: thank for the tunes, Kris! thanks for chatting everyone. cheers!
	11:56pm Kris Holmes: Thanks team
	11:56pm chresti: Thanks Kris! Cheers!
	🥁 11:59pm WR: Thanks again Kris for spinning for us every Tuesday. Take care all. Laters.

	🥁 11:00pm JtotheK: I'm glad that I have a note that I could have purchased both of them on the same day 5 years ago, so that 5 years later I could be reminded. I should have continued that habit. Good grief.
	11:01pm Little Danny: I dig the spooky guitar in the background of this Masqueraders.
	11:02pm Little Danny: Another artist with some Hi Records outings, the Masqueraders.
	11:02pm Kris Holmes: I have the Special Agent thankfully, bought it off a good friend a few years back
	11:03pm Phillippe Bastille: I see on the playlist that we have records from the Chess and Checker labels. Since chess is generally regarded to be harder that checkers, are the songs recorded on the Chess label harder to play than the ones on the Checker label? This is the kind of stuff that keeps me up at night.
	11:04pm Kris Holmes: hahahaha, good question Phillippe
	11:05pm Little Danny: Think harder, Phillippe. It'll come to you.
	11:06pm Phillippe Bastille: Thank goodness there isn't a 3D Chess label like that game on Star Trek
	11:06pm Matt from New Orleans: Jason after pondering the list I have to say they’re all worth watching. I’d go by actor, director, or plot description. Whomever curated that list did a good job.
	11:07pm Little Danny: Tri-Dimensional Chess Records.
	🥁 11:08pm JtotheK: When that service launched they started with a bunch of Noir, including Mildred Pierce which I started watching, but it was late and I didn't finish it, and then it was off the service - and it hasn't been added back yet!
	11:10pm Matt from New Orleans: Mildred Pierce is a good’un
	11:13pm Matt from New Orleans: There was a more solid remake with Kate Winslet & Guy Pearce
	11:14pm Matt from New Orleans: Just solid I was writing something additional and forgot to delete more
	🥁 11:16pm JtotheK: Matt, that's right! The Mildred w/Kate Winslet is on HBO, I'll add to the watchlist...
	11:17pm Matt from New Orleans: Vinyl nation was pretty good
	11:18pm still b/p: openculture website has some noir entries watchable for free. Made some notes but haven't viewed films yet.
	11:20pm Little Danny: Of course now that you play it sounds way better to me, Kris.
	11:20pm Kris Holmes: hahahaha, Dan you always say that!!!!!
	11:22pm Little Danny: haha you are correct sir
	11:24pm chresti: Have not watched movies in a while.
	11:24pm Matt from New Orleans: SBP I’ve seen all of these www.openculture.com...
	11:26pm chresti: The thing with the classics, I can watch them again and again.
	11:26pm Little Danny: Thanks for that link, Matt. I dig the super noir-ish noir atmospherics; any of those titles you'd particularly recommend?
	11:28pm chresti: Beat the Devil, that's one I have not seen. I recommend it.
	🥁 11:29pm WR: Hursh you mouth coonskin alligator hide calling me.
	11:29pm Little Danny: Ah love this Traits 45. Both sides.
	11:30pm Kris Holmes: I apparently am going to need an immediate upgrade
	11:31pm Matt from New Orleans: Kansas City Confidential, Detour, DOA, Scarlet Street, Big Combo, Hitchhiker, Too Late for Tears
	11:32pm Little Danny: Thanks Matt. Duly noted.
	11:36pm Little Danny: 'night Kris and all
	11:36pm Matt from New Orleans: Later gator
	🥁 11:37pm JtotheK: good evening Danny!
	🥁 11:37pm WR: Doug doesn't mind mentioning other indie stations. I have hard time listening to most of the OZ djs, but live broadcasts they do are sometimes stellar.
	11:38pm Kris Holmes: Good night Dan
	11:39pm Kris Holmes: ah good to know
	11:41pm Matt from New Orleans: They’re also doing a live stream of piano night as a fundraiser on Monday. That’s a fundraiser they do every year.
	11:43pm Matt from New Orleans: Sadly I have to agree with WR. I used to be a devotee but the internal bullshit at the station turned me off to it.
	11:48pm Matt from New Orleans: I have a few friends that are DJs. I’ll listen to their shows if I remember. I wished they’d archive the shows like WFMU. That’s an amazing resource here.
	11:49pm Matt from New Orleans: That was way too hard to type. Time to put the phone down. Lots of CHOONS tonight. Bye everyone.
	11:50pm Kris Holmes: night matt
	11:51pm chresti: Bye Matt.
	11:52pm Phillippe Bastille: Thanks Kris! I enjoyed it (both the easy and hard songs!)
	🥁 11:55pm JtotheK: thank for the tunes, Kris! thanks for chatting everyone. cheers!
	11:56pm Kris Holmes: Thanks team
	11:56pm chresti: Thanks Kris! Cheers!
	🥁 11:59pm WR: Thanks again Kris for spinning for us every Tuesday. Take care all. Laters.
