UM, took me a second listen to ~get~ the Webb piece, he is some player!9:50am : Good morning Bob and listeners! Once again, the best part of waking up on Saturday mornings.9:51am : That Villa-Lobos was fine. I came across that album once but it was too scratchy to play. But someone had loved it prior, obviously.🥁 9:52am : Harry Smith, what a character.9:53am : Hard Days Night is always watchable!
The Running Jumping Standing Still Film is basically a guy with a super 8 camera with a few friends in a hilly field doing silly stuff in 10-20 second bits. proto-pythonish, imagine 5 mins of the fish slapping dance mixed with benny hill but no girls.9:55am : Mornin', folks!9:56am : hey DJ Bob and bones, thanks somuch for your show today it's wonderful so far as always :)9:57am : Good morning Bob. It's been nice to hear you back on Saturday mornings.9:57am : Bob, we say Jimmy perform in 2019.

Later this afternoon, of course. :-)9:59am : Thanks Corey, welcome.
TDK60, I took that from a really nice CD on Rev-ola's el label.
Hey, doctorjazz.
Wm. : Yeah Smith's impact was astounding, the Lomaxes too, and other lesser known ethnomusicologists. We're all the richer for it.
anon in Louisiana-thx and welcome to you.
UM, I hear you.10:09am : Great show so far Bob glad to see you’ve mastered the from home technology loved the left bank stuff and the Jimmy Webb was a big surprise thanks for doing what you do have a good one man10:10am : This is Bob Greiza from ...Nothing Follows10:13am : Love those ringing guitars!10:14am : Greetings from Sheeshcago.

Sheeshcago- I absolutely love the cold but I'm not sure I could take the wind of a Chi. Winter or from Lake Cauga!10:22am : Before the Trump Pandemic, I typically stayed out too late on Friday nights to be awake at 9am/8am Central Time for your show. Not so for now but it's one of the few things I can put in the "positive results" column of this time of constant weirdness. Thank you.10:25am : Welcome Greg & Pedro!
Aw, thanks mojo61.10:26am : Great show. Thanks, Bob.10:31am : Makin' love to rainbow colors -- now we're gettin' somewhere....10:31am : swordfish!10:38am : Thanks Jasen,
hey Ross T.10:38am : I hear ya! No one moves here (or there for that matter) for the weather. Chicago has 2 seasons; Winter and August! I grew up at the Shore and lived for decades in NYC and when I was preparing to move here I scoffed at the weather warnings. After all, NYC winters can be pretty rough, too. Long, grey, wet, and usually quite brutal. I live right on the lake and the final block of my walk home is like an aeronautic wind tunnel with gusts that almost knock one over. Icy winds that bite and cold that cuts deep into bones. Some of us resemble Marcel Marceau walking against the wind without even trying!10:40am : Very glad to find you on the air again, Bob! Thanks for the sounds.10:41am : Hi, Bob. Just tuned in. So great to hear you back on.10:41am : Bob, so great to hear you and your tunes back on the radio. Howdy!10:42am : Foreign language Youngbloods! This what I have missed the past few years!🥁 10:43am : Grizzly Bear in Italian? Wow.10:43am : Hey Bob & Brainenacs All. It's truly wonderful to have you back!10:43am : Seriously (I have nothing to do with Ted or gene).10:45am : Mojo61, that's a funny image.
Hey Gene & Ted-2 of my favorites!
Hey Jan & Ross T.
Thx Kevin!10:48am : Thanks for the NRBQ, Bob!10:50am : I like this song.10:54am : Fun sounds this Saturday morn, Bob.10:54am : My pleasure Andrew.
