Listener comments!
	6:00pm Matt Clarke: Hey Andrew! Looking forward to this show
	6:01pm cometothesunshine: Hey, thanks, Matt!!!
	6:02pm sw2442: Hello Andrew...sounds like another great show...
	6:03pm cometothesunshine: Hello - thanks, sw 2442
	6:04pm cometothesunshine: I fixed up all of today's singles and the Grapefruit hour is better than I could do fourteen years ago - so much more music is available.
	6:04pm Lee: hi Andrew, sounding great, really looking forward to this show!
	6:05pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, Lee - these are some of my favorite records!
	6:05pm mce1965: Great to revisit the classics - and I have donated to the cause. I expect a rendition of You'll Never Walk Alone by the end of the program.
	6:06pm cometothesunshine: MCE 1965 - I gave blood to get this show on the air today, my thanks are all that is left.
	6:07pm Matt Clarke: The effort is always appreciated, Andrew
	6:08pm mce1965: That will be quite sufficient, then
	6:08pm cometothesunshine: The singles sounding good - this is a cut above my original recorded in a laundry room edition.
	6:09pm uptown jen: So glad we get to revisit these early shows with you. I missed the early episodes the first time around.
	6:09pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, Jen. When I stop complaining about the time it took, I will enjoy it too!
	6:10pm cometothesunshine: Great to pull out these 45's - the core of my collection - to give them fresh plays.
	6:11pm cometothesunshine: Tandyn Almer was some kind of arranger
	6:12pm johnyoung1234: Hey Andrew...great to be here. Technical question--how do you clean up these 45s? Is it software or hardware based? They sound great!
	6:13pm cometothesunshine: Vic Smith - ready to produce the Jam?
	6:13pm mce1965: Not enough room on the label for the Coppersmith
	6:14pm cometothesunshine: JY - I use both. VPI record cleaner, Record Research stylus cleaner, Audio Technica turntable, RX Izotope RX Pro Advanced software - declicking only.
	6:16pm cometothesunshine: Lone 45 by The Devil's Brigade. Sounds like Hal Blaine on drums.
	6:18pm mce1965: For sure... that pattern is owned by HB
	6:19pm cometothesunshine: Ray Pohlman as arranger kinda tells you it was likely Hal. But I have heard Jim Gordon pull off the Hal sound.
	6:20pm cometothesunshine: The Wilder Brothers owned a studio on Santa Monica Blvd. - near the Rhino Store - they did tape transfers. I guess Soft Pop only paid so many bills.
	6:22pm cometothesunshine: Nothing like the wacky stereo sound of CSG
	6:22pm mce1965: Just about to say the same thing
	6:22pm johnyoung1234: I was just conversing with Richie Furay via email last week! He's a nice guy...
	6:23pm cometothesunshine: Ultimate frowny face EQ
	6:23pm Matt Clarke: Always really liked this Buffalo Springfield song. And love this mix with the xtra stuff
	6:23pm cometothesunshine: It was a real highlight to play guitar behind him a few years back, JY
	6:23pm cometothesunshine: Me too, Matt - not sure why they remixed for the album.
	6:24pm johnyoung1234: I has never heard "Sister Marie" until I bought "Where the Action Is". That box set turned me on to so many great songs. Still one of my favorite box sets ever.
	6:24pm Jason Brewer: This is an incredible set Andrew!
	6:25pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, JY & Jason. I got a lot of ideas for that bix set from these early shows.
	6:25pm mce1965: I shall be listening via mobile for the rest of the show but thank you for the blood sweat & tears in a totally non-David Clayton-Thomas way
	6:26pm johnyoung1234: I was always hoping there would be a "Vol. 2" of "Where the Action Is" since I've heard so many great songs on your shows since then.
	6:26pm cometothesunshine: You are very welcome, MCE!
	6:26pm Candy-O'67: Tuning in, Andrew!
	6:26pm cometothesunshine: MCE - you were with me when I found the picture sleeve for this 45, I think.
	6:26pm uptown jen: “You Are She” is one of my favorite songs of the 60s.
	6:27pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, Candy-O!
	6:27pm uptown jen: (Which is to say of all-time, since that’s pretty much all of the music I love)
	6:27pm cometothesunshine: JY - I don't think Rhino will ever do anything remotely like that. They wouldn't even let me be involved in the vinyl cutdown.
	6:28pm cometothesunshine: Jen - this and "Distant Shores"
	6:28pm cometothesunshine: The handclaps!
	6:29pm uptown jen: That’s a good ‘un, too!
	6:31pm cometothesunshine: I should have mentioned George Tipton as the arranger of "Sister Marie" - but he is always in my mind.
	6:33pm cometothesunshine: This is a great 45 - Mike Brewer, pre-Toke
	6:34pm Matt Clarke: Favorite Cyrkle tune
	6:34pm cometothesunshine: Matt - I seem to recall Tom Dawes telling me this was about the Byrds.
	6:36pm cometothesunshine: Love Tom's sitar playing.
	6:36pm Matt Clarke: Really? Wow. Need to focus on lyrics again later
	6:37pm cometothesunshine: If you are low on funds and can't afford the 5th Dimension...
	6:37pm Kim Reynolds: Happy Monday!
	6:37pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, Kim!
	6:37pm cometothesunshine: Matt - I think they had a negative impression of the Byrds, personally.
	6:40pm cometothesunshine: This is one of the greatest records.
	6:44pm aubreycolors: Hello :)
	6:44pm cometothesunshine: Hi, Aubrey - glad to see you.
	6:45pm aubreycolors: Looking forward to what you've got for Grapefruit.
	6:45pm cometothesunshine: I am looking forward to playing it for you!
	6:45pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Andrew! Thanks for reminding me of the marvelously named Vic Coppersmith-Heaven.
	6:47pm Matt Clarke: Such a great 'erman chune
	6:48pm cometothesunshine: May great pleasure, Gaylord.
	6:48pm cometothesunshine: I think Orange Peel loves these 'ermits records more than me.
	6:49pm Candy-O'67: Never heard this 'ermits song before. Diggin' it!
	6:49pm Gaylord Fields: I'm sure Mr. O. Peel has some Vic Smith stories to share once he's had a pint or 16.
	6:49pm Candy-O'67: Hey Gaylord!
	6:50pm cometothesunshine: The Rain have a little bit of a garage Dylan style.
	6:51pm Gaylord Fields: Hiya, Candy-O!
	6:53pm cometothesunshine: Gaylord - starting to think Orange Peel really is crazy.
	6:54pm Gaylord Fields: Yay, a piece of the Action! My favorite no-hit group of all time! I proudly possess this as their only US Capitol single!
	6:54pm Matt Clarke: Is Orange Peel still on his curry n chips break?
	6:54pm cometothesunshine: That guy takes a lot of breaks. Beyond laid back.
	6:55pm Matt Clarke: Back to back winners
	6:55pm cometothesunshine: Gaylord - yes I only was able to afford a UK copy a few years ago. Still have my well-worn Crapitol copy.
	6:55pm Gaylord Fields: So the hyperbaric chamber that pumps in nonstop John's Children that Orange Peel always has a lie-down in is not for show?
	6:56pm Matt Clarke: Same for me, re Action, Gaylord!
	6:57pm aubreycolors: I like this song "Talkin' About the Good Times". Sounds like 1967-1968 Pink Floyd during the versus.
	6:57pm aubreycolors: *verses
	6:58pm cometothesunshine: Aubrey - this is one of the best two-sided 45's outside of Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields.
	6:58pm cometothesunshine: Produced by Norman Smith, like early Pink Floyd
	6:58pm Gaylord Fields: Andrew, I saw an original copy of "I'll Keep Holding On" at Disc Union in Tokyo six years ago that was almost but not quite affordable. I'll settle for my Edsel 45, remixed or whatever.
	6:59pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Matt! I'm just glad the Action found some love while Reg King was still around to appreciate it.
	7:00pm cometothesunshine: Gaylord, I treated my self.
	7:00pm Gaylord Fields: Andrew, I'm kicking myself.
	7:00pm Matt Clarke: Hi Gaylord! Did you ever see their reunion shows?
	7:01pm Beantown Doug: Norman who called himself "Hurricane," and who John Lennon called "Normal" had an interesting, quirky career as a performer.
	7:02pm cometothesunshine: Matt & Gaylord - I saw the Action at the 100 Club, one of the best shows of my entire life!
	7:03pm Gaylord Fields: Matt, they happened at the height of my involuntary poverty, or else I would have flown there for sure.
	7:03pm Matt Clarke: Wow Andrew!! That's so great you got to catch that!
	7:03pm aubreycolors: I first heard of Grapefruit because an ex-coworker of mine in Texas bought it around 2002, then gave me a copy because he told me I had to hear it. This was way before I had heard of Come to the Sunshine :)
	7:03pm Candy-O'67: @Gaylord, I'd love to find that "I Keep Holding On" 45. One of my faves!
	7:03pm Gaylord Fields: I envy you, Andrew!
	7:04pm cometothesunshine: It was a lucky break, Gaylord.
	7:05pm Beantown Doug: Does Orange Peel have a Grapefruit Peel friend? ;-)
	7:05pm cometothesunshine: I just love this album, Aubrey
	7:05pm Gaylord Fields: @Candy-O: I bought the Edsel reissue when it came out 40 years (!) ago, but even that'll set you back about $30.
	7:06pm Matt Clarke: Did Terry Melcher produce the entire LP, Andrew?
	7:07pm cometothesunshine: Matt - no, but he did mix the album in LA. It was mixed by the guy who did McCartney's Ram! Some of the 45 mixes are better, so I subbed them in today.
	7:08pm Matt Clarke: Wow cool!
	7:09pm cometothesunshine: The US 45 of Elevator/Yes - are different mixes than the UK 45
	7:10pm cometothesunshine: Paul McCartney said they were big-headed to issue this as a double A-side. Radio did not play it.
	7:10pm Matt Clarke: Did they Terry Melcher connection come through Derek Taylor? I wonder?
	7:11pm cometothesunshine: No, they wanted to do an Apple publishing deal for the States and thought Melcher was the best person. In return, he produced Grapefruit.
	7:11pm Matt Clarke: Got it. Thanks for the info. Love hearing these mixes.
	7:12pm cometothesunshine: But then they did a lot of self-production without him. And Derek Lawrence produced this, their third 45.
	7:12pm cometothesunshine: John Perry was in Tony Rivers & The Castaways and has that super high voice.
	7:13pm Gaylord Fields: My Tony Rivers Alert just went off and led me back here!
	7:14pm Matt Clarke: Ha, Gaylord! I was waiting for your Tony Rivers fan club badge to start blinking!
	7:14pm Candy-O'67: @Gaylord - wow! Yeah, I've noticed a lot of reissues are even expensive now
	7:15pm cometothesunshine: John Lennon had an acetate of this in his collection and Yoko thought he wrote the song, so she copyrighted it in the 1980's.
	7:16pm cometothesunshine: Quite a compliment. Lennon/McCartney apparently sat in on the session as producers with Melcher.
	7:16pm Matt Clarke: Wow. Did that create problems for reissues?
	7:16pm cometothesunshine: He later claimed he produced the Beatles.
	7:16pm Matt Clarke: Terry did? Ha
	7:17pm cometothesunshine: No Matt, the issue was rectified. A journalist even wrote about in Musician as a great undiscovered Lennon song.
	7:19pm Gaylord Fields: Yoko also mistakenly applied for a copyright for "Have You Heard the Word" by the Fut!
	7:19pm cometothesunshine: Gaylord, she was the victim of poor advice!
	7:20pm Matt Clarke: Ha wow never knew that
	7:21pm Matt Clarke: Just such an amazing song. Absolute favorite
	7:21pm cometothesunshine: George Alexander was truly an amazing songwriter. And then, he totally changed his style.
	7:21pm cometothesunshine: Love Bill Shepherd's arrangement
	7:22pm Mailman Tom: I remember Dear Delilah being played on FM radio back in the day. Great song!
	7:22pm Matt Clarke: Never knew Bill Shepherd did the arrangement! Totally makes sense now
	7:23pm cometothesunshine: This is my favorite Grapefruit track.
	7:23pm Gaylord Fields: Has one single family's members been the creative force behind so many different and disparate groups?
	7:23pm cometothesunshine: Matt - their is a big connection between the Bee Gees, Easybeats & Grapefruit=Bill Shepherd.
	7:24pm cometothesunshine: Gaylord, Vanda & Young alone were so many groups.
	7:24pm cometothesunshine: & then they teamed up with "Alex" post Grapefruit.
	7:24pm Gaylord Fields: So true — those guys were not a flash (i)n the pan.
	7:25pm cometothesunshine: I love "Someday Soon" like a big ballad, Whiter Shade Of Pale.
	7:26pm Matt Clarke: Did Grapefruit ever play live in the states?
	7:26pm cometothesunshine: High vocals like Sparks.
	7:26pm Phillippe Bastille: howdy
	7:26pm cometothesunshine: Matt - apparently they did, with their new line-up
	7:27pm cometothesunshine: They made their second album in Los Angeles with Terry.
	7:27pm cometothesunshine: Welcome, Phillippe
	7:28pm Gaylord Fields: It would be as if the Cowsills started off as three different groups and then later just formed various permutations among themselves.
	7:29pm cometothesunshine: Quite a thought
	7:29pm Gaylord Fields: With Barbara being in the AC/DC-type parallel universe group, of course.
	7:29pm Beantown Doug: As always with music you present that is unfamiliar to me, the more I hear, the more compelling it gets.
	7:30pm cometothesunshine: Thank you, Doug!
	7:31pm cometothesunshine: I love their Grapefruit colored suits.
	7:31pm Matt Clarke: Kind of an Easys flavor to this tune!
	7:31pm cometothesunshine: Very much so, Matt.
	7:31pm Matt Clarke: I could totally hear Stevie singing this song
	7:32pm cometothesunshine: George and Alex have some similar songwriting traits.
	7:32pm cometothesunshine: And Alex plays sax on the Easybeats records: Come In, You'll Get Pneumonia and Hound Dog
	7:33pm Matt Clarke: Definitely gonna scope this release out
	7:33pm cometothesunshine: I wish they had stayed in this style for their second album.
	7:35pm cometothesunshine: It was amazing to finally hear the other songs they recorded in 1968.
	7:37pm uptown jen: I don’t know which version of “Round Going Round” I prefer!
	7:37pm Beantown Doug: A Terry Melcher sound, definitely!
	7:37pm cometothesunshine: Jen - that's why I played them both!
	7:37pm uptown jen: (Probably the album version, by a hair)
	7:38pm aubreycolors: I'm going to seek out 'Yesterday's Sunrise' on CD and save a copy of this show. Good stuff.
	7:38pm Beantown Doug: Wow, this is a perfect record.
	7:38pm cometothesunshine: I could see why they thought this would be a good single.
	7:38pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, Aubrey
	7:38pm dave: I never knew that the US single of Talking About the Good Times had a unique mix!
	7:39pm cometothesunshine: yeah, dave, only found that out this year!
	7:44pm cometothesunshine: So, these are the original unedited versions of these songs done for Top Gear without the voiceovers!
	7:45pm cometothesunshine: With live Bill Shepherd arrangements!
	7:46pm Matt Clarke: Incredible
	7:47pm Mailman Tom: You learn something new everyday. Today I learned that I like Grapefruit
	7:48pm cometothesunshine: I have wanted to do a full hour of Grapefruit for about ten years. The original show #2 had Grapefruit and the Easybeats. Since I did a three-hour tribute to George Young, I thought I would finally give Alex his hour.
	7:49pm cometothesunshine: Following this show, you are invited to hear another full hour of songs by Alex Young (George Alexander) & George Young, hosted by Orange Peel.
	7:51pm Matt Clarke: Definitely sticking around
	7:52pm aubreycolors: 10 years? What was stopping you? or was it a case that just the stars weren't aligned yet?
	7:54pm cometothesunshine: Stars and time were not there, Aubrey. I spent like 12 hours on this show, and it was supposed to be maybe four!
	7:55pm Matt Clarke: Thanks Andrew. This was fab
	7:55pm aubreycolors: Well, thank you! :)
	7:55pm Candy-O'67: Thank you, Andrew!
	7:56pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, Andrew! And to think I absolutely abhor grapefruit the citrus.
	7:56pm cometothesunshine: Thanks for being here to share some of my favorite music - very uplifting to hear with friends.
	7:57pm cometothesunshine: So, this song is listed on the back cover of the American Grapefruit album. I had to wait till 2016 to finally hear what they left off. Such a beautiful melody.
	7:58pm sw2442: John and Paul knew great songwriters when they heard it...thanks for a great show Andrew...see you next week.
	7:58pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, everyone! Stay tuned for the After Hour with Orange Peel.
	7:58pm cometothesunshine: Denny Laine is in my eyes...
	7:59pm Matt Clarke: Great version
	8:00pm uptown jen: Great show, Andrew!
	10:38pm J3: Hi Andrew. Love the show and the Grapefruit feature. I'm sure you're aware of the Easybeats, Vanda and Young connection. Have you ever done a feature on them? Some great songwriting and the Easybeats were much more than Friday On My Mind. Lots of offshoot bands and production credits and the great Flash and the Pan!
	10:40pm J3: Also, I have the original Grapefruit lp from 68. I bought it after hearing Dear Delilah. So psychedelic at the time.
	6:45pm Stephen Rao: Great episode!

	6:13pm mce1965: Not enough room on the label for the Coppersmith
	6:14pm cometothesunshine: JY - I use both. VPI record cleaner, Record Research stylus cleaner, Audio Technica turntable, RX Izotope RX Pro Advanced software - declicking only.
	6:16pm cometothesunshine: Lone 45 by The Devil's Brigade. Sounds like Hal Blaine on drums.
	6:18pm mce1965: For sure... that pattern is owned by HB
	6:19pm cometothesunshine: Ray Pohlman as arranger kinda tells you it was likely Hal. But I have heard Jim Gordon pull off the Hal sound.
	6:20pm cometothesunshine: The Wilder Brothers owned a studio on Santa Monica Blvd. - near the Rhino Store - they did tape transfers. I guess Soft Pop only paid so many bills.
	6:22pm cometothesunshine: Nothing like the wacky stereo sound of CSG
	6:22pm mce1965: Just about to say the same thing
	6:22pm johnyoung1234: I was just conversing with Richie Furay via email last week! He's a nice guy...
	6:23pm cometothesunshine: Ultimate frowny face EQ
	6:23pm Matt Clarke: Always really liked this Buffalo Springfield song. And love this mix with the xtra stuff
	6:23pm cometothesunshine: It was a real highlight to play guitar behind him a few years back, JY
	6:23pm cometothesunshine: Me too, Matt - not sure why they remixed for the album.
	6:24pm johnyoung1234: I has never heard "Sister Marie" until I bought "Where the Action Is". That box set turned me on to so many great songs. Still one of my favorite box sets ever.
	6:24pm Jason Brewer: This is an incredible set Andrew!
	6:25pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, JY & Jason. I got a lot of ideas for that bix set from these early shows.
	6:25pm mce1965: I shall be listening via mobile for the rest of the show but thank you for the blood sweat & tears in a totally non-David Clayton-Thomas way
	6:26pm johnyoung1234: I was always hoping there would be a "Vol. 2" of "Where the Action Is" since I've heard so many great songs on your shows since then.
	6:26pm cometothesunshine: You are very welcome, MCE!
	6:26pm Candy-O'67: Tuning in, Andrew!
	6:26pm cometothesunshine: MCE - you were with me when I found the picture sleeve for this 45, I think.
	6:26pm uptown jen: “You Are She” is one of my favorite songs of the 60s.
	6:27pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, Candy-O!
	6:27pm uptown jen: (Which is to say of all-time, since that’s pretty much all of the music I love)
	6:27pm cometothesunshine: JY - I don't think Rhino will ever do anything remotely like that. They wouldn't even let me be involved in the vinyl cutdown.
	6:28pm cometothesunshine: Jen - this and "Distant Shores"
	6:28pm cometothesunshine: The handclaps!
	6:29pm uptown jen: That’s a good ‘un, too!
	6:31pm cometothesunshine: I should have mentioned George Tipton as the arranger of "Sister Marie" - but he is always in my mind.
	6:33pm cometothesunshine: This is a great 45 - Mike Brewer, pre-Toke
	6:34pm Matt Clarke: Favorite Cyrkle tune
	6:34pm cometothesunshine: Matt - I seem to recall Tom Dawes telling me this was about the Byrds.
	6:36pm cometothesunshine: Love Tom's sitar playing.
	6:36pm Matt Clarke: Really? Wow. Need to focus on lyrics again later
	6:37pm cometothesunshine: If you are low on funds and can't afford the 5th Dimension...
	6:37pm Kim Reynolds: Happy Monday!
	6:37pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, Kim!
	6:37pm cometothesunshine: Matt - I think they had a negative impression of the Byrds, personally.
	6:40pm cometothesunshine: This is one of the greatest records.
	6:44pm aubreycolors: Hello :)
	6:44pm cometothesunshine: Hi, Aubrey - glad to see you.
	6:45pm aubreycolors: Looking forward to what you've got for Grapefruit.
	6:45pm cometothesunshine: I am looking forward to playing it for you!
	6:45pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Andrew! Thanks for reminding me of the marvelously named Vic Coppersmith-Heaven.
	6:47pm Matt Clarke: Such a great 'erman chune
	6:48pm cometothesunshine: May great pleasure, Gaylord.
	6:48pm cometothesunshine: I think Orange Peel loves these 'ermits records more than me.
	6:49pm Candy-O'67: Never heard this 'ermits song before. Diggin' it!
	6:49pm Gaylord Fields: I'm sure Mr. O. Peel has some Vic Smith stories to share once he's had a pint or 16.
	6:49pm Candy-O'67: Hey Gaylord!
	6:50pm cometothesunshine: The Rain have a little bit of a garage Dylan style.
	6:51pm Gaylord Fields: Hiya, Candy-O!
	6:53pm cometothesunshine: Gaylord - starting to think Orange Peel really is crazy.
	6:54pm Gaylord Fields: Yay, a piece of the Action! My favorite no-hit group of all time! I proudly possess this as their only US Capitol single!
	6:54pm Matt Clarke: Is Orange Peel still on his curry n chips break?
	6:54pm cometothesunshine: That guy takes a lot of breaks. Beyond laid back.
	6:55pm Matt Clarke: Back to back winners
	6:55pm cometothesunshine: Gaylord - yes I only was able to afford a UK copy a few years ago. Still have my well-worn Crapitol copy.
	6:55pm Gaylord Fields: So the hyperbaric chamber that pumps in nonstop John's Children that Orange Peel always has a lie-down in is not for show?
	6:56pm Matt Clarke: Same for me, re Action, Gaylord!
	6:57pm aubreycolors: I like this song "Talkin' About the Good Times". Sounds like 1967-1968 Pink Floyd during the versus.
	6:57pm aubreycolors: *verses
	6:58pm cometothesunshine: Aubrey - this is one of the best two-sided 45's outside of Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields.
	6:58pm cometothesunshine: Produced by Norman Smith, like early Pink Floyd
	6:58pm Gaylord Fields: Andrew, I saw an original copy of "I'll Keep Holding On" at Disc Union in Tokyo six years ago that was almost but not quite affordable. I'll settle for my Edsel 45, remixed or whatever.
	6:59pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Matt! I'm just glad the Action found some love while Reg King was still around to appreciate it.
	7:00pm cometothesunshine: Gaylord, I treated my self.
	7:00pm Gaylord Fields: Andrew, I'm kicking myself.
	7:00pm Matt Clarke: Hi Gaylord! Did you ever see their reunion shows?
	7:01pm Beantown Doug: Norman who called himself "Hurricane," and who John Lennon called "Normal" had an interesting, quirky career as a performer.
	7:02pm cometothesunshine: Matt & Gaylord - I saw the Action at the 100 Club, one of the best shows of my entire life!
	7:03pm Gaylord Fields: Matt, they happened at the height of my involuntary poverty, or else I would have flown there for sure.
	7:03pm Matt Clarke: Wow Andrew!! That's so great you got to catch that!
	7:03pm aubreycolors: I first heard of Grapefruit because an ex-coworker of mine in Texas bought it around 2002, then gave me a copy because he told me I had to hear it. This was way before I had heard of Come to the Sunshine :)
	7:03pm Candy-O'67: @Gaylord, I'd love to find that "I Keep Holding On" 45. One of my faves!
	7:03pm Gaylord Fields: I envy you, Andrew!
	7:04pm cometothesunshine: It was a lucky break, Gaylord.
	7:05pm Beantown Doug: Does Orange Peel have a Grapefruit Peel friend? ;-)
	7:05pm cometothesunshine: I just love this album, Aubrey
	7:05pm Gaylord Fields: @Candy-O: I bought the Edsel reissue when it came out 40 years (!) ago, but even that'll set you back about $30.
	7:06pm Matt Clarke: Did Terry Melcher produce the entire LP, Andrew?
	7:07pm cometothesunshine: Matt - no, but he did mix the album in LA. It was mixed by the guy who did McCartney's Ram! Some of the 45 mixes are better, so I subbed them in today.
	7:08pm Matt Clarke: Wow cool!
	7:09pm cometothesunshine: The US 45 of Elevator/Yes - are different mixes than the UK 45
	7:10pm cometothesunshine: Paul McCartney said they were big-headed to issue this as a double A-side. Radio did not play it.
	7:10pm Matt Clarke: Did they Terry Melcher connection come through Derek Taylor? I wonder?
	7:11pm cometothesunshine: No, they wanted to do an Apple publishing deal for the States and thought Melcher was the best person. In return, he produced Grapefruit.
	7:11pm Matt Clarke: Got it. Thanks for the info. Love hearing these mixes.
	7:12pm cometothesunshine: But then they did a lot of self-production without him. And Derek Lawrence produced this, their third 45.
	7:12pm cometothesunshine: John Perry was in Tony Rivers & The Castaways and has that super high voice.
	7:13pm Gaylord Fields: My Tony Rivers Alert just went off and led me back here!
	7:14pm Matt Clarke: Ha, Gaylord! I was waiting for your Tony Rivers fan club badge to start blinking!
	7:14pm Candy-O'67: @Gaylord - wow! Yeah, I've noticed a lot of reissues are even expensive now
	7:15pm cometothesunshine: John Lennon had an acetate of this in his collection and Yoko thought he wrote the song, so she copyrighted it in the 1980's.
	7:16pm cometothesunshine: Quite a compliment. Lennon/McCartney apparently sat in on the session as producers with Melcher.
	7:16pm Matt Clarke: Wow. Did that create problems for reissues?
	7:16pm cometothesunshine: He later claimed he produced the Beatles.
	7:16pm Matt Clarke: Terry did? Ha
	7:17pm cometothesunshine: No Matt, the issue was rectified. A journalist even wrote about in Musician as a great undiscovered Lennon song.
	7:19pm Gaylord Fields: Yoko also mistakenly applied for a copyright for "Have You Heard the Word" by the Fut!
	7:19pm cometothesunshine: Gaylord, she was the victim of poor advice!
	7:20pm Matt Clarke: Ha wow never knew that
	7:21pm Matt Clarke: Just such an amazing song. Absolute favorite
	7:21pm cometothesunshine: George Alexander was truly an amazing songwriter. And then, he totally changed his style.
	7:21pm cometothesunshine: Love Bill Shepherd's arrangement
	7:22pm Mailman Tom: I remember Dear Delilah being played on FM radio back in the day. Great song!
	7:22pm Matt Clarke: Never knew Bill Shepherd did the arrangement! Totally makes sense now
	7:23pm cometothesunshine: This is my favorite Grapefruit track.
	7:23pm Gaylord Fields: Has one single family's members been the creative force behind so many different and disparate groups?
	7:23pm cometothesunshine: Matt - their is a big connection between the Bee Gees, Easybeats & Grapefruit=Bill Shepherd.
	7:24pm cometothesunshine: Gaylord, Vanda & Young alone were so many groups.
	7:24pm cometothesunshine: & then they teamed up with "Alex" post Grapefruit.
	7:24pm Gaylord Fields: So true — those guys were not a flash (i)n the pan.
	7:25pm cometothesunshine: I love "Someday Soon" like a big ballad, Whiter Shade Of Pale.
	7:26pm Matt Clarke: Did Grapefruit ever play live in the states?
	7:26pm cometothesunshine: High vocals like Sparks.
	7:26pm Phillippe Bastille: howdy
	7:26pm cometothesunshine: Matt - apparently they did, with their new line-up
	7:27pm cometothesunshine: They made their second album in Los Angeles with Terry.
	7:27pm cometothesunshine: Welcome, Phillippe
	7:28pm Gaylord Fields: It would be as if the Cowsills started off as three different groups and then later just formed various permutations among themselves.
	7:29pm cometothesunshine: Quite a thought
	7:29pm Gaylord Fields: With Barbara being in the AC/DC-type parallel universe group, of course.
	7:29pm Beantown Doug: As always with music you present that is unfamiliar to me, the more I hear, the more compelling it gets.
	7:30pm cometothesunshine: Thank you, Doug!
	7:31pm cometothesunshine: I love their Grapefruit colored suits.
	7:31pm Matt Clarke: Kind of an Easys flavor to this tune!
	7:31pm cometothesunshine: Very much so, Matt.
	7:31pm Matt Clarke: I could totally hear Stevie singing this song
	7:32pm cometothesunshine: George and Alex have some similar songwriting traits.
	7:32pm cometothesunshine: And Alex plays sax on the Easybeats records: Come In, You'll Get Pneumonia and Hound Dog
	7:33pm Matt Clarke: Definitely gonna scope this release out
	7:33pm cometothesunshine: I wish they had stayed in this style for their second album.
	7:35pm cometothesunshine: It was amazing to finally hear the other songs they recorded in 1968.
	7:37pm uptown jen: I don’t know which version of “Round Going Round” I prefer!
	7:37pm Beantown Doug: A Terry Melcher sound, definitely!
	7:37pm cometothesunshine: Jen - that's why I played them both!
	7:37pm uptown jen: (Probably the album version, by a hair)
	7:38pm aubreycolors: I'm going to seek out 'Yesterday's Sunrise' on CD and save a copy of this show. Good stuff.
	7:38pm Beantown Doug: Wow, this is a perfect record.
	7:38pm cometothesunshine: I could see why they thought this would be a good single.
	7:38pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, Aubrey
	7:38pm dave: I never knew that the US single of Talking About the Good Times had a unique mix!
	7:39pm cometothesunshine: yeah, dave, only found that out this year!
	7:44pm cometothesunshine: So, these are the original unedited versions of these songs done for Top Gear without the voiceovers!
	7:45pm cometothesunshine: With live Bill Shepherd arrangements!
	7:46pm Matt Clarke: Incredible
	7:47pm Mailman Tom: You learn something new everyday. Today I learned that I like Grapefruit
	7:48pm cometothesunshine: I have wanted to do a full hour of Grapefruit for about ten years. The original show #2 had Grapefruit and the Easybeats. Since I did a three-hour tribute to George Young, I thought I would finally give Alex his hour.
	7:49pm cometothesunshine: Following this show, you are invited to hear another full hour of songs by Alex Young (George Alexander) & George Young, hosted by Orange Peel.
	7:51pm Matt Clarke: Definitely sticking around
	7:52pm aubreycolors: 10 years? What was stopping you? or was it a case that just the stars weren't aligned yet?
	7:54pm cometothesunshine: Stars and time were not there, Aubrey. I spent like 12 hours on this show, and it was supposed to be maybe four!
	7:55pm Matt Clarke: Thanks Andrew. This was fab
	7:55pm aubreycolors: Well, thank you! :)
	7:55pm Candy-O'67: Thank you, Andrew!
	7:56pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, Andrew! And to think I absolutely abhor grapefruit the citrus.
	7:56pm cometothesunshine: Thanks for being here to share some of my favorite music - very uplifting to hear with friends.
	7:57pm cometothesunshine: So, this song is listed on the back cover of the American Grapefruit album. I had to wait till 2016 to finally hear what they left off. Such a beautiful melody.
	7:58pm sw2442: John and Paul knew great songwriters when they heard it...thanks for a great show Andrew...see you next week.
	7:58pm cometothesunshine: Thanks, everyone! Stay tuned for the After Hour with Orange Peel.
	7:58pm cometothesunshine: Denny Laine is in my eyes...
	7:59pm Matt Clarke: Great version
	8:00pm uptown jen: Great show, Andrew!
	10:38pm J3: Hi Andrew. Love the show and the Grapefruit feature. I'm sure you're aware of the Easybeats, Vanda and Young connection. Have you ever done a feature on them? Some great songwriting and the Easybeats were much more than Friday On My Mind. Lots of offshoot bands and production credits and the great Flash and the Pan!
	10:40pm J3: Also, I have the original Grapefruit lp from 68. I bought it after hearing Dear Delilah. So psychedelic at the time.
	6:45pm Stephen Rao: Great episode!
