	♥ 3:21pm Funky16Corners: Rey! Candy-O! SquigY0!
	3:21pm SquigY0: greetings Larry!
	♥ 3:22pm Candy-O'67: Loved Kirsty MacColl! So sad how she died :(
	♥ 3:22pm Funky16Corners: Yes indeed. Such a great singer.
	♥ 3:23pm John from NP: Yep, she was a hero, RIP
	3:23pm Erica: She also sang on Fairytale of New York with The Pogues.
	♥ 3:23pm Matt from New Orleans: Men of North Country just released a cover of They Don’t Know. Digital only for now but I think will be on vinyl.
	♥ 3:23pm Funky16Corners: This is such a great SOUNDING record. I used to crank up the radio when it came on.
	♥ 3:24pm Candy-O'67: Same, Larry!!
	♥ 3:24pm Funky16Corners: @Matt - I'll have to look for that.
	♥ 3:24pm Candy-O'67: Hey, Matt!
	♥ 3:25pm Matt from New Orleans: They posted it on YouTube yesterday youtu.be...
	♥ 3:25pm Funky16Corners: Produced by the great Steve Lillywhite!
	♥ 3:25pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi Candy
	♥ 3:28pm doctorjazz: Great track (MacColl), hi!
	♥ 3:29pm Funky16Corners: Hey Doc!
	♥ 3:30pm Matt from New Orleans: The album name is a tad redundant. I don’t know any Bossa that isn’t relaxing.
	3:31pm SquigY0: Didn't 5th Dimension do this one?
	♥ 3:31pm Funky16Corners: Free Design
	3:32pm SquigY0: ah. reminded me of the Up Up and Away sound
	♥ 3:32pm Funky16Corners: Def the same vibe
	♥ 3:35pm Matt from New Orleans: I’d rather hear Jerry sing it
	3:40pm Erica: I looked up Lada Edmund Jr. Turns out she had only one single with Once Upon a Time as the B-side.
	3:41pm βrian: "Filet of sole" ??
	♥ 3:42pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - She had at least one other. He song 'The Larue' is a big (expensive) Northern Soul record
	♥ 3:42pm Funky16Corners: @Brian - Hippies...
	♥ 3:46pm Brian in UK: Now, Kama Sutra was a label with much variety. As the name implies!!
	3:46pm Erica: According to Discogs, she's had a few more than what you mentioned Larry: The Answer and I Want a Man from 1961 and Trouble from 1967.
	♥ 3:47pm Funky16Corners: She was a dancer on Hullabaloo, a model and went on to be a stuntwoman!
	3:48pm Erica: And a personal trainer too I read.
	♥ 3:50pm WR: Hello Larry and all. Am listening and so far work is quiet so the music is loud. 👍
	♥ 3:50pm Funky16Corners: Hey WR!
	♥ 3:51pm Matt from New Orleans: Can’t say I remember this Teresa album. Enjoying her vocals.
	♥ 3:52pm Funky16Corners: It is unjustly obscure, and very good
	♥ 3:52pm Funky16Corners: She was 19 when she recorded it, and never did another record. Not even singles. All of the songs I'm playing are songs she wrote.
	♥ 3:55pm Matt from New Orleans: Any clue how she hooked up with Anita Kerr?
	♥ 3:56pm Funky16Corners: None whatsoever. There's very little info out there about her
	♥ 3:56pm Brian in UK: A little theatrical in presentation. Not a bad thing.
	♥ 3:56pm Funky16Corners: I'll talk about her at the break.
	♥ 4:01pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Agreed about Steve Lillywhite!
	♥ 4:01pm Brian in UK: Kirsty's ex.
	♥ 4:08pm Funky16Corners: I did not know that!
	🥁 ♥ 4:09pm Mx. Granny (e/em): howdy, Larry and folxes!
	♥ 4:10pm Funky16Corners: Hey Granny!
	♥ 4:11pm Brian in UK: Larry, off the top of your head, how many Beatles covers are there? No rush, you got ten minutes!!!!
	4:11pm Erica: Hi Granny!
	♥ 4:12pm Funky16Corners: Conservative estimate? Many thousands.
	4:14pm SquigY0: Allegedly, Yesterday the most frequently covered of them
	🥁 ♥ 4:15pm Mx. Granny (e/em): hi, Erica!!! Great to see you! And that cat!!! LOL!
	♥ 4:15pm Funky16Corners: When you consider that EVERYBODY, in every genre was covering the Beatles, jazzers, mainstream pop vocalists, rock bands, etc the field was HUGE
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm Mx. Granny (e/em): it might be easier to count how many artists HAVEN'T covered The Beatles!
	♥ 4:18pm Funky16Corners: Yes! That would be easier!
	4:18pm SquigY0: ha so true. answer might be none!
	♥ 4:19pm Funky16Corners: I'm reading a book about the Easy Listening world attaching itself to psychedelic music, and the breadth of this stuff is amazing. Whole albums devoted to covering specific Beatles albums etc
	4:19pm Irene: Love all these covers by women this afternoon!
	♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: Hi Irene!
	♥ 4:21pm dreamyandseedy: Didn't Want To Have To Do It is such a pretty song! i love the version by Mama Cass
	♥ 4:21pm Funky16Corners: Hey dreamyandseedy! I love John Sebastian's songwriting.
	4:22pm SquigY0: this purty
	♥ 4:22pm Brian in UK: Here is the road to madness. beatlescovers.bizerks.com
	♥ 4:23pm Funky16Corners: This is a great album
	4:26pm Erica: The long and winding road to madness you mean Brian.
	4:27pm Dean: Still can't fathom that this woman produced the first Dead Boys album.
	♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: Hey Dean!
	♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: She has a very interesting history. Also, if you don't know the original of this by the Faces, go and listen to it (after the show is done, of course)
	♥ 4:30pm Brian in UK: Erica, nice one.
	♥ 4:30pm Candy-O'67: Hahaha, Dean! She's one tough lady! ;))
	4:31pm Dean: I know the original well. It now reminds me of a dream I had a month or two ago in which I met Rod at the stage in his career when he was joining Faces. I, however, was in the here and now, and so I congratulated Rod on his career to present, of which he was unaware.
	♥ 4:31pm Candy-O'67: I've listened to Genya on the Underground Garage over the years. She has a couple monthly special shows on there and she is quite interesting!!
	♥ 4:32pm Brian in UK: Dean, what haircut did he have?
	♥ 4:32pm Funky16Corners: I can't say that I love every Faces song, but the ones I do love, I love A LOT
	♥ 4:32pm Funky16Corners: Like this one
	4:33pm Dean: Cover of Wink Is as Good as a Nod. That haircut.
	♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: This 45 is Faces-adjacent, the other side is written and produced and played on by the Small Faces. This side is produced by Jagger
	♥ 4:35pm dreamyandseedy: first heard this song on Sheila B's show where she interviewed PP, it's so good!
	♥ 4:35pm Candy-O'67: Hey, dreamyandseedy, do you know what episode the interview was on? I'd like to hear that
	♥ 4:36pm Brian in UK: Dean, I remember going past a barbers, early '73 and there were four of five men all sitting in chairs looking like Rod from behind. Feathercut?
	4:36pm Dean: I lurked when it comes to Faces for years during my early album collecting years. Heard and loved their work, gazed at the albums in the stores, but never made the purchase. At some time post-2000 I picked up Nod for a buck or two. Fast forward decades to the box set Four Guys Walk Into a Bar, and it's a regular on the home playlist.
	♥ 4:37pm dreamyandseedy: Candy-O'67: here you go! wfmu.org...
	♥ 4:41pm Candy-O'67: Thanks, so much, dreamyandseedy! I love your tag name, by the way! :)
	♥ 4:45pm Brian in UK: Great variety as ever, Larry. This version is out about the same time as Robert Palmer's.
	♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: One of my favorite Toussaint songs
	♥ 4:47pm Brian in UK: Saw him a few years ago, just him and a piano.
	♥ 4:48pm Funky16Corners: Esther Phillips does a great version, too
	♥ 4:52pm Matt from New Orleans: Thanks Larry
	♥ 4:53pm Funky16Corners: My pleasure, as always
	♥ 4:54pm WR: Thanks for the show Larry. Interesting variety.. Laters folks.
	4:54pm SquigY0: Asthmatic Kitty huh? :D
	♥ 4:54pm Funky16Corners: Thanks WR
	4:55pm mauri: cool show Larry!
	♥ 4:55pm John from NP: Good show, Larry. Hope I remember to tune in next time.
	♥ 4:55pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Mauri!
	♥ 4:55pm Funky16Corners: Thanks John!
	4:55pm Erica: Another great show as always. Are you doing a Christmas show next week or so?
	♥ 4:56pm Funky16Corners: @SquigY), look the label up. Really interesting discography
	♥ 4:56pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - Next two weeks are devoted to records that were sampled
	4:57pm SquigY0: Ahh, I know Sufjan Stevens. cool
	♥ 4:57pm Candy-O'67: Thanks, Larry! Fab show! Really enjoyed it!
	4:58pm Erica: Okay Larry.
	♥ 4:59pm Yvang: Thank you, Larry!
	♥ 5:00pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Really enjoyed the show, Larry!
	5:02pm Dean: Do you know the singer Irene Kral? Really marvelous stuff, jazz standards, and such.
	♥ 5:03pm dreamyandseedy: i think Linda is/was a dental hygienist :)
	♥ 5:04pm John from NP: Bahumbug!!
	5:04pm SquigY0: Thanks Larry! Can't wait for your samples!
	♥ 5:04pm Funky16Corners: @Dean - I do, sister of Roy Kral (I thnk)
	♥ 5:04pm Funky16Corners: @Dreamy - I think you are correct
	♥ 5:04pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Yvang! Hopey!
	5:05pm Dean: I'm usually knee-deep in early (medieval, Renaissance) Christmas music by now. Ain't happenin', as you say. Yes, Roy's sibling!
	9:23am Cal Zone!: Listening now! Outstanding show, Larry!
	9:24am Funky16corners: Thanks Cal!

	♥ 4:19pm Funky16Corners: I'm reading a book about the Easy Listening world attaching itself to psychedelic music, and the breadth of this stuff is amazing. Whole albums devoted to covering specific Beatles albums etc
	4:19pm Irene: Love all these covers by women this afternoon!
	♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: Hi Irene!
	♥ 4:21pm dreamyandseedy: Didn't Want To Have To Do It is such a pretty song! i love the version by Mama Cass
	♥ 4:21pm Funky16Corners: Hey dreamyandseedy! I love John Sebastian's songwriting.
	4:22pm SquigY0: this purty
	♥ 4:22pm Brian in UK: Here is the road to madness. beatlescovers.bizerks.com
	♥ 4:23pm Funky16Corners: This is a great album
	4:26pm Erica: The long and winding road to madness you mean Brian.
	4:27pm Dean: Still can't fathom that this woman produced the first Dead Boys album.
	♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: Hey Dean!
	♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: She has a very interesting history. Also, if you don't know the original of this by the Faces, go and listen to it (after the show is done, of course)
	♥ 4:30pm Brian in UK: Erica, nice one.
	♥ 4:30pm Candy-O'67: Hahaha, Dean! She's one tough lady! ;))
	4:31pm Dean: I know the original well. It now reminds me of a dream I had a month or two ago in which I met Rod at the stage in his career when he was joining Faces. I, however, was in the here and now, and so I congratulated Rod on his career to present, of which he was unaware.
	♥ 4:31pm Candy-O'67: I've listened to Genya on the Underground Garage over the years. She has a couple monthly special shows on there and she is quite interesting!!
	♥ 4:32pm Brian in UK: Dean, what haircut did he have?
	♥ 4:32pm Funky16Corners: I can't say that I love every Faces song, but the ones I do love, I love A LOT
	♥ 4:32pm Funky16Corners: Like this one
	4:33pm Dean: Cover of Wink Is as Good as a Nod. That haircut.
	♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: This 45 is Faces-adjacent, the other side is written and produced and played on by the Small Faces. This side is produced by Jagger
	♥ 4:35pm dreamyandseedy: first heard this song on Sheila B's show where she interviewed PP, it's so good!
	♥ 4:35pm Candy-O'67: Hey, dreamyandseedy, do you know what episode the interview was on? I'd like to hear that
	♥ 4:36pm Brian in UK: Dean, I remember going past a barbers, early '73 and there were four of five men all sitting in chairs looking like Rod from behind. Feathercut?
	4:36pm Dean: I lurked when it comes to Faces for years during my early album collecting years. Heard and loved their work, gazed at the albums in the stores, but never made the purchase. At some time post-2000 I picked up Nod for a buck or two. Fast forward decades to the box set Four Guys Walk Into a Bar, and it's a regular on the home playlist.
	♥ 4:37pm dreamyandseedy: Candy-O'67: here you go! wfmu.org...
