	11:17am Squints: gf2002, I doubt it but would love to find out that was played by The Astounding 12-String Guitar Of Glen Campbell.
	11:18am egould310: Power pop! Single note guitar solo!
	11:18am Dennis Diken: go, Mikey! hey everybody!

	11:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Please Sir - may I some more Dickens... Nice Harrison stylee slide on that Fanclub...
	11:20am PatrickMC: I don't know who Isaak Opatz is but that opener track sure rang all my bells. #1 for sure
	11:21am Squints: That pace. They're playing this like Don Everly played Bird Dog. Just git it done.
	11:21am clarke: not my tempo!!!!
	11:22am Listener Baby: Nino
	11:23am clarke: papoose
	11:26am Squints: I'm pretty sure this show is where I got hipped to SugarPie Desanto. SugarPie Desanto makes me so happy.
	11:30am clarke: Serpentine Fiyah?? come on!!!
	11:32am clarke: best sign i ever saw: Holiday Inn in hyannis, MA: HAVE YOUR NEXT AFFAIR WITH US!
	11:34am Moammar: Gilbert Gottfriend's big moment at the climax of "The Aristrocrats" is one of the most heroic things I've ever seen. A triumph of the human spirit.
	11:34am Paul: best bumper sticker: I Brake Just Like a Little Girl
	11:34am Paul: He was struck by Murry.
	11:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ooof.
	11:36am mike east: What was the show Michael recommended with 9 episode seasons?
	11:36am Michael Shelley: GREAT BRITISH BAKING SHOW
	11:36am PatrickMC: Ah so this was Nick's acid trip
	11:37am Handy Haversack: I notice we all very carefully don't mention Turntable 1's culpability in the wrong record getting played ... Gonna start cooking soon, but we'll be listening.
	11:37am clarke: see above, HH
	11:37am Listener Baby: There is only one Steppenwolf, Nick
	11:38am phat in Lincoln: I think I can see her face now, too!
	11:38am clarke: and they are in the grave!!
	11:38am Squints: In re EW&F. I'm pretty sure if you share a bill with Chicago you get into the R&RHoF. Casual observation. Not necessarily causal inference.
	11:38am Handy Haversack: What does it have on you, clarke? We can help you!
	11:38am Paul: Can't go wrong with Pauls
	11:38am myron feld: you must have a Paul Lynde ID somewhere in there
	11:38am McGroovey: That Kippington Lodge track is pretty groovy.
	11:38am Squints: "I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express this afternoon."
	11:38am ledzeppelinsucks: Where's Paul Shore?
	11:39am clarke: TT#1 was merely trying to play The Above.
	11:39am mike east: Thank you, Michael. Carry on :)
	11:40am clarke: ha ha, Squints
	11:41am Montmaster J: Who's looking forward to watching "Get Back" this week?! Anybody see it already somehow?
	11:41am Michael Shelley: Can you rent GET BACK - or must you subscribe?
	11:41am ?: i used to take my kids to Larsons after school on the way to soccer practice. Hot dogs and corn bread.
	11:41am Squints: One of the few rhythm sections that might have left The Funk Brothers a little slackjawed. Christ, this groove....
	11:42am gf2002: Re: The Brian Wilson movie. First, it's now available to buy on Amazon Prime video too. I understand why they put the "talking heads" in these types of documentaries, a lot of it is to draw in other fanbases. But in the case of the Foo Fighters' drummer Taylor Hawkins, he's legit. A former girlfriend of his was the daughter of Dennis Wilson's close friend and songwriting collaborator Gregg Jakobson. When they dug up an unfinished Dennis solo track from Pacific Ocean Blue, "Holy Man", Gregg asked Taylor to sing it, backed by members of Queen. Taylor had a voice that Gregg thought was similar to Dennis' in sound and feel, and it's a really good reading of Dennis' music. So Taylor Hawkins is legit as a big fan of the Wilsons in general, had the blessing of one of Dennis' closest friends and collaborators, and has more cred within the fan base than some of the others.
	11:42am clarke: long ago, when on REM's #2 bus, peter buck had a lot of this footage, but on crappy quality VHS tapes. not sure how he got them, and if i knew i'd be dead.
	11:42am Montmaster J: I think it's only on Disney +....we joined and will unjoin after this month.....
	11:42am Squints: I love the Tempts Smokeyish take on this, but this one, yowza.
	11:44am Squints: I still ain't made up my mind about Toledo.
	11:44am Montmaster J: You are, of course, invited to come over and watch it ;)
	11:44am clarke: ha ha ha ha ha - hoboken?!?
	11:45am P-90: The art of the Spoken Word Intro Song
	11:45am Squints: "That's another thing there ain't no of."
	11:45am Listener Baby: Amazing recording this
	11:45am myron feld: Sister Wynona Carr and Frances Faye have very similar speaking voices. Singing voices is another story. And I love Frances.
	11:46am clarke: what cartoon, Squints?? (memory only half there)
	11:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...terrible terrible terrible things in the world - but then! - an Otis Redding track I don't know yet. Do you reckon Judy Henske was very into Wynona Carr ??
	11:46am Squints: stan freberg, christmas dragnet.
	11:47am Lizardner Dave !: TIL recently is after his yo yo career Kenny Strass went on to play Colin Robinson on What We Do in the Shadows.
	11:47am clarke: ahhhhh YES!!
	11:47am Montmaster J: Going to see Dylan Wednesday at the Capitol.....first time.
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I read that Get Back will debut around Thanksgiving - & then be on demand on Disney+ after this. It is 7.8 Hours not just 6. Rumor is the home release will be 12 Hours !
	11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...7.8 hours, in three parts...
	11:50am clarke: two-fer!!!!!
	11:50am Fuchs Audio: this lemon twigs tune sounding a lot like Todd Rungren ?
	11:51am clarke: deliberately!!
	11:51am Frank In Queens: @Fuchs, I agree. I thought it was Todd the first time I heard it.
	11:51am Michael Shelley: FA- 100%
	11:51am Vistavision: Last night’s Dylan show may have been the best I’ve seen, and I’ve seen many, both good and bad. His vote was smooth and marvelous, his upright pianist playing was spirited and really rockin’ indeed. Really great. He can’t live forever… go!
	11:52am Fuchs Audio: They clearly (and quite nicely) show their influences on their sleeves, and I quite like it...
	11:52am clarke: Frank: our lovely host hath started the MovieTime, methinks??
	11:52am Frank In Queens: Watched Fast Times At Ridgemont High last night.
	11:53am clarke: awe-sommmme!!
	11:54am clarke: nice car, Jefferson, you've been keeping it up wonderfully!!
	11:54am PatrickMC: That ain't Brother Barry! But not bad
	11:54am Michael Shelley: FIQ - one of my all time top tens
	11:54am Corey: Morning Michael and listeners! Rare Saturday work day made better by stream of #1's!
	11:54am clarke: this week i saw When Trumpets Fade - which made me think of you, Frank, in that it is VERY Fuller!!
	11:55am Listener Baby: This is what we call, Way out over your skis.
	11:55am Handy Haversack: Hey, Corey!
	11:55am Andres: This is good.
	11:55am Frank In Queens: Gotta check that out clarke!
	11:56am ?: Hey ! Is that you and Mr. Fine Wine in this pic dining on Pell Street? https://gothamist.com/food/nyc-outdoor-dining-permanent Pic here : https://cdn.cms.prod.nypr.digital/images/2021092.2e16d0ba.fill-661x496.format-jpeg.jpegquality-80_KnU1XZO.jpg
	11:56am JimB: "What are you, a hand model?"
	11:56am clarke: someone has posted it on the youtube but as WarMovie
	11:57am Frank In Queens: @Michael, I've seem it a million times, but not for quite some time. I was able to appreciate it on a different level last night.
	11:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oddly enuff - written by the BeeGees 'about' Robert Stigwood I think it was - their Manager - & how impressed they were & needed him ! :D
	11:57am Frank In Queens: @clarke, thanks. I hope it's still up when I have a chance to check it out next week. This weekend is all hockey
	11:58am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dylan has had this outstanding band for years now, yeah ?
	11:58am Listener Baby: Now SHE can ski
	11:58am clarke: all hockey all the time!
	11:58am Dennis Diken: it is written that Joe Pesci introduced the “two yutes” Bob Gaudio to Frankie Valli. “Sir” Joe Pesci, for that alone.
	11:59am Moammar: The Ur-Drells!
	11:59am Frank In Queens: @clarke, the Isles are opening the new arena this weekend.
	12:00pm clarke: you do the hockey pocky - that's what it's all about, apparently.
	12:00pm myron feld: re: Fast Times: Phoebe Cates is my third cousin. I've never met her.
	12:01pm clarke: Hi Brad (cue The Cars Moving In Stereo)
	12:02pm Michael Shelley: Clarke - you read my mind
	12:02pm Corey: Hey Handy! Happy Saturday!
	12:02pm clarke: ha ha ha - naw
	12:03pm Frank In Queens: The Criterion version has the clip from the pool house scene that was cut in order for the film to avoid an X rating.
	12:03pm Listener Baby: Let’s talk under-rated amazing drummers right here.
	12:03pm myron feld: @Baby: Paul Thompson, the number onest.
	12:03pm gf2002: Also worth noting Pesci's character in Goodfellas was renamed "Tommy DeVito", who the real Tommy DeVito was also Pesci's and Valli's mutual friend and founder of the Four Seasons. Love playing six degrees of Pesci...
	12:04pm clarke: and phil manzanera - also underrated.
	12:04pm PatrickMC: @baby. Just thinking exact same
	12:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Drums & their Recording here.
	12:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Funky, Driving, Tight & Swingin' all @ once.
	12:06pm clarke: and unique snare sound to be sure - sometimes bad is good.
	12:06pm egould310: Love is the drug. But so are drugs.
	12:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Drums is the Drug
	12:07pm clarke: no vocoder for Frampton - it was a TalkBox - which is an air-tube connected to a distortion/fuzz unit
	12:07pm Listener Baby: @Clake. It’s almost like the snares were lifted on that Roxy track. Almost.
	12:07pm Paul: Sounds like a theme song to a 60s sitcom.
	12:10pm clarke: i think it goes for around $8
	12:10pm Greg from ZONE 5: Nah, FCA is still dirt cheap. But I did see a store in NOLA attempting to get $60 for a copy of Born In The USA.
	12:11pm Frank In Queens: @clarke @michael, yes, a stock copy in decent shape goes for about $8 - $10.
	12:11pm gf2002: A comedian had a joke that every house in the suburbs had a copy of Frampton Comes Alive waiting on the doorstep for every family that moved to a new home.
	12:11pm clarke: i like the album.
	12:11pm Frank In Queens: BUT I saw someone by an ok stock copy of Rumours on the street for $40!
	12:11pm Dennis Diken: @gf2002 - yes - also, Tommy Devito was Pesci's personal assistant for a long time in recent years.
	12:12pm Erella: Vinyl that was in everyone's collection isn't as valuable as the rarities. Did every male record collector own a copy of Whipped Cream & Other Delights by Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass? Wonder what that one was worth
	12:12pm clarke: you can still find Whipped Cream!! very avail.
	12:13pm Erella: Yes. The vinyl is still in great shape because (many) people bought it for the cover. It is still in every thrift store LP bin
	12:14pm clarke: scooby dooooooooo
	12:14pm Squints: My Pop had a copy of WC&OD. Along with the rest of the TJB oeuvre.
	12:15pm clarke: one of the records that 'taught' me drums (hal blaine)
	12:15pm Moammar: I hope all the Joe Tex lovers out there have seen the Joe Tex show live in Sweden on YouTube. Stellar version of this song: www.youtube.com...
	12:15pm clarke: gotta watch that!!
	12:16pm gf2002: It's all about demand, when you have new listeners under 25 years of age trying to buy up vinyl, the price of anything "original" or "vintage" in a shop can be marked up and they will pay $14.99 for albums I find at yard sales for a buck or less. I remember the 90's Space Age Bachelor Pad Music craze when shops in Boston were selling Jackie Gleason and Martin Denny albums for 10-15 bucks because of the covers I think. And anything Esquivel at that time was through the roof.
	12:17pm clarke: told this before, but: in college, my bandmate and i snuck into Joe Tex's baton rouge abandoned mansion on highland road near LSU. spooky!!
	12:17pm myron feld: I went to this record store in Lexington KY that has a wall of "Whipped Cream and Other Delights" -- i.redd.it...
	12:17pm McGroovey: This Joe Tex song is living proof that sometimes a songwriter spends too much time struggling over lyrics, when just the three or four lines you thought of in the first ten seconds will do.
	12:17pm Erella: Myron! That is hilarious!
	12:18pm Squints: myron, with maybe the odd Right To Chews cover just to break it up?
	12:18pm Joe B: re Get Back - just subscribe for one month and cancel. It's 7 dollars. it's cheaper than renting three movies.
	12:18pm Squints: I like that Joe Tex's bass player was properly Earthed.
	12:18pm DG: RE: "Frampton Comes Alive"---that joke is in "Wayne's World 2." Wayne says that if you lived in the suburbs, you were "issued it. It came in the mail with packages of Tide." Not that a comic wouldn't have "borrowed"that joke, or had the same idea.
	12:19pm clarke: i never watch a movie that has a number behind the title.
	12:20pm Listener Baby: Man I love this one!,, is this the JD Mc guy on drums?
	12:20pm gf2002: @DG I forgot about Wayne's World 2, lol. I think Wayne "borrowed" the joke from a stand-up routine but it's still a classic line.
	12:20pm clarke: and yes, never seen Godfather 2 front to back
	12:20pm ChrisB.: Getting ready for Saturday night with The Ribeye Brothers at Asbury Lanes!
	12:21pm Michael Shelley: LB- jason Smay - I think so!
	12:21pm Joe B: nice Chris. have fun!
	12:21pm Cooh John: That Todd can party.
	12:21pm Listener Baby: I never knew that. Respect!,,
	12:22pm Joe B: Yes, definitely Jason Smay on drums!
	12:23pm Paul: @Joe B, good idea! I had Hulu for one month just to watch the McCartney documentary.
	12:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Reminds me a little of Status Quo's 1st album (Matchstick Men).
	12:24pm Cooh John: Had Jason play for my birthday years ago.🙌
	12:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Freakbeat...
	12:25pm clarke: i was only going to keep amazon prime for a (free) month to watch Longboat - but, i will say that it has been worth it to pay for.
	12:26pm phat in Lincoln: No, we don't get any respect! Thanks Michael.
	12:26pm Listener Baby: Got to run. You done good, Baby! Enjoy your weekend, everybody!
	12:26pm Paul: "Marijuana is the flame, heroin is the fuse, LSD is the bomb." Sgt. Joe Friday
	12:27pm PatrickMC: More accordion plz
	12:27pm clarke: he's still not sure about Toledo.
	12:28pm clarke: baby - BABY!!! ADIEU
	12:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Marijuana is RubberSoul, heroin is the WhiteAlbum, LSD is Revolver/Pepper.
	12:31pm Dennis Diken: Jason Smay might be the greatest living drummer…on earth, that is
	12:34pm Cooh John: Agree, DD. What about Toledo,?
	12:35pm P-90: Sunset & Larrabee: cool location (especially back then)
	12:36pm Greg from ZONE 5: Bobbie, all day every day.
	12:38pm Michael Shelley: P-90 - Pussycat Theater, Tower, Filthy McNasty's, Turners, Licorice Pizza, Falafel place with pinball - Whiskey & Roxy just blocks away
	12:38pm pp: Michael, from last week, your comment calling Bogdanovich's "They All Laughed" a train wreck is misguided. It's a masterclass in perspective tracking shots and filming in the middle of Manhattan chaos.
	12:40pm clarke: that's basically the Sunset Strip, right?
	12:42pm davefromtoronto: a show called michael shelley..?
	12:43pm Michael Shelley: Jason Smay is one of those musicians who knows how to bring his personal style to every project & make it fit, while still maintaining his thing. Not always easy.
	12:46pm phat in Lincoln: That Sly and the Family Stone performance in Summer of Soul is ridiculously good.
	12:46pm Tim from LH: Jason Smay blew my mind first time I saw him play In Maxwells.
	12:46pm Michael Shelley: w/ the drummer sitting sideways!?
	12:47pm KWilde: Digging the instruméntales today!
	12:48pm Frank In Queens: SUPERGRASS!!
	12:48pm phat in Lincoln: @Michael Shelley yes!
	12:49pm Paul: What happened to Supergrass and Cornershop?
	12:50pm Joe B: Supergrass had a reunion tour booked for the US in summer of 2020.
	12:51pm Paul: @Joe B, no kidding?
	12:51pm Chris Hiatt: Margaret Glaspy = awesome.
	12:51pm gf2002: Supergrass is one of the best bands from that era. "In It For The Money" is a fantastic album. One of my all-time favorites.
	12:52pm clarke: NOT my fault!! signed, TT#1
	12:52pm McGroovey: It's almost 1:00? Dang.
	12:53pm Joe B: @paul - absolutely. they split in 2010. there is a (mostly) finished album from 2009-10 era that remains unreleased
	12:53pm PatrickMC: Undertones bastard kids?
	12:53pm gf2002: When they played Boston, a guy I knew was walking on Newbury Street and spotted them walking around too. No one knew them. He introduced himself and ended up taking them to John Fluevog to shop for shoes. That same guy also worked as a roadie for Superdrag, another amazing band.
	12:53pm radioronan: Great show.Thanks Michael!
	12:54pm phat in Lincoln: Oh hell yes, Only Ones
	12:54pm Greg from ZONE 5: PERFECT SONG.
	12:55pm Corey: Thanks for the great show Michael! Take care all!
	12:55pm phat in Lincoln: I know someone who says Another Girl is the greatest pop single of all time. Hard to argue.
	12:55pm gf2002: Supergrass, Superdrag, Superchunk...
	12:55pm clarke: it's the worst deal we've ever had!! #1 #1 #1
	12:55pm jmd: The best not-Soft Boys song ever!
	12:55pm Frank In Queens: Supergrass is my fave from that Britpop scene. Head and shoulders above all the others IMO. Hoping they can reschedule those dates i had tix for from last year, but we shall see.
	12:56pm egould310: Awesome show, Michael. Great opener song. Great closing song. It’s almost like you know what you’re doing. :-)
	12:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY As Ever DJ MS ~
	12:57pm Paul: Better than Blur, Frank?
	12:57pm phat in Lincoln: Hot damn
	12:57pm Frank Zaatar: Is there such a thing as a timeless time machine? Cause that's the Only Ones.
	12:57pm PatrickMC: Buddy Holly covers day. #1. Now do Bobby Fuller 4!
	12:57pm Moammar: Riddle dee pat.
	12:57pm Frank In Queens: @Paul. Better than Blur. I like the rock and Supergrass brings the rock.
	12:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Buddy - Moses of PowerPop. Dead @ 21.
	12:58pm Paul: Fair enough.
	12:58pm Joe B: agreed Frank. I like Blur but not even close in my book!
	12:58pm Frank In Queens: And Road To Rouen is their best. I've probably said that every time someone players Supergrass on this station.
	12:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: *22
	12:59pm clarke: tom.
	12:59pm Frank In Queens: Tom Carvel!
	12:59pm gf2002: Fudgie The Whale!
	12:59pm phat in Lincoln: Oh, the days of WOR on cable...
	12:59pm clarke: goo'nite.
	12:59pm PatrickMC: Dumpy the pumpkin rools
	1:00pm Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, Michael!
	1:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Supergrass - BritPop with some more Fun & less Posture...
	2:48pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Michael!
	3:59pm Bob: We sell Frampton Comes Alive and much pedestrian stuff of that ilk very regularly. It's nothing like selling a clean Kinks, Stones or mono Beatles, but it's steady. Clean classic rock is always reliable. Ten or twelve bucks. Considering we generally pick them up for a buck or less, thats a huge profit. Much better than the three bucks I was lucky to make on a new CD in a retail store during the peak of disc sales.

Listener comments!
	11:00am Listener Baby: Greetings Mr. Shelley. Your mission today, should you decide to accept; is to play rapid fire #1 hits, tell us about your week, complain (just the right amount), then play the Scooby Doo bit that brings me so much joy. Good luck and good morning.
	11:01am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Michael & all!

	11:09am Cooh John: Hello Michael and #1ers.
	11:10am jmd: Whoa, this Boogie is on fire!
	11:10am myron feld: @Michael Shelley: I'm not a big fan of Christmas music (been a devout Satanist since Y2K), but your and Laura Cantrell's new offering is EXTREMELY #1! For those who haven't heard it (or those who'd like to hear it again), here's "Mr. & Mrs. Santa Claus": www.youtube.com...
	11:12am Greg from ZONE 5: @clarke: They call him Scooby-Doo…but he doesn't do!
	11:12am clarke: TT#1 is fundamentally sound.
	11:12am gf2002: That feeling when you listen to Speedy and Jimmy and realize they cut these records 100% live to one track of tape roughly 70 years ago...That's how you play guitar.
	11:13am clarke: they should call it Velma!
	11:14am Michael Shelley: Worst deal we've ever had...
	11:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Morning FMUvianz !
	11:15am Paul: "Turner Sings Allen"
	11:15am clarke: what is the Mystery Machine doing? Nothing!!
	11:15am Handy Haversack: Hey now! Michael and all the Shelle Gamers! Greg, clarke, Cooh John, Skyline, Frank, Baby, Rev Rab, presuming Jack, all! Was at the store. Gonna have to cook soon. Friends coming over to meet the kittens and eat brunch.
	11:16am Paul: Make that Franklin, not Turner.
	11:16am clarke: Social Kittie Brunch does NOT excuse you, sir!!
	11:16am gf2002: Speaking of acoustic 12-string guitar...one of the hottest 12-string tracks of the 60's can be heard on Burl Ives' "Holly Jolly Christmas". No joke.
	11:17am egould310: Goodbye girl, where did you go? One of the best tunes by one of the best bands. Teenage Fanclub #1 hit song makers.
	11:17am Squints: gf2002, I doubt it but would love to find out that was played by The Astounding 12-String Guitar Of Glen Campbell.
	11:18am egould310: Power pop! Single note guitar solo!
	11:18am Dennis Diken: go, Mikey! hey everybody!
	11:19am clarke: it's a van, but what's it DOING???
	11:20am Frank In Queens: Hittin’ that post!
	11:20am clarke: Turntable One claims NO responsibility for the most recent error. it was attempting to play Bell Sound!!! hey now!!!
	11:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Please Sir - may I some more Dickens... Nice Harrison stylee slide on that Fanclub...
	11:20am PatrickMC: I don't know who Isaak Opatz is but that opener track sure rang all my bells. #1 for sure
	11:21am Squints: That pace. They're playing this like Don Everly played Bird Dog. Just git it done.
	11:21am clarke: not my tempo!!!!
	11:22am Listener Baby: Nino
	11:23am clarke: papoose
	11:26am Squints: I'm pretty sure this show is where I got hipped to SugarPie Desanto. SugarPie Desanto makes me so happy.
	11:30am clarke: Serpentine Fiyah?? come on!!!
	11:32am clarke: best sign i ever saw: Holiday Inn in hyannis, MA: HAVE YOUR NEXT AFFAIR WITH US!
	11:34am Moammar: Gilbert Gottfriend's big moment at the climax of "The Aristrocrats" is one of the most heroic things I've ever seen. A triumph of the human spirit.
	11:34am Paul: best bumper sticker: I Brake Just Like a Little Girl
	11:34am Paul: He was struck by Murry.
	11:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ooof.
	11:36am mike east: What was the show Michael recommended with 9 episode seasons?
	11:36am Michael Shelley: GREAT BRITISH BAKING SHOW
	11:36am PatrickMC: Ah so this was Nick's acid trip
	11:37am Handy Haversack: I notice we all very carefully don't mention Turntable 1's culpability in the wrong record getting played ... Gonna start cooking soon, but we'll be listening.
	11:37am clarke: see above, HH
	11:37am Listener Baby: There is only one Steppenwolf, Nick
	11:38am phat in Lincoln: I think I can see her face now, too!
	11:38am clarke: and they are in the grave!!
	11:38am Squints: In re EW&F. I'm pretty sure if you share a bill with Chicago you get into the R&RHoF. Casual observation. Not necessarily causal inference.
	11:38am Handy Haversack: What does it have on you, clarke? We can help you!
	11:38am Paul: Can't go wrong with Pauls
	11:38am myron feld: you must have a Paul Lynde ID somewhere in there
	11:38am McGroovey: That Kippington Lodge track is pretty groovy.
	11:38am Squints: "I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express this afternoon."
	11:38am ledzeppelinsucks: Where's Paul Shore?
	11:39am clarke: TT#1 was merely trying to play The Above.
	11:39am mike east: Thank you, Michael. Carry on :)
	11:40am clarke: ha ha, Squints
	11:41am Montmaster J: Who's looking forward to watching "Get Back" this week?! Anybody see it already somehow?
	11:41am Michael Shelley: Can you rent GET BACK - or must you subscribe?
	11:41am ?: i used to take my kids to Larsons after school on the way to soccer practice. Hot dogs and corn bread.
	11:41am Squints: One of the few rhythm sections that might have left The Funk Brothers a little slackjawed. Christ, this groove....
	11:42am gf2002: Re: The Brian Wilson movie. First, it's now available to buy on Amazon Prime video too. I understand why they put the "talking heads" in these types of documentaries, a lot of it is to draw in other fanbases. But in the case of the Foo Fighters' drummer Taylor Hawkins, he's legit. A former girlfriend of his was the daughter of Dennis Wilson's close friend and songwriting collaborator Gregg Jakobson. When they dug up an unfinished Dennis solo track from Pacific Ocean Blue, "Holy Man", Gregg asked Taylor to sing it, backed by members of Queen. Taylor had a voice that Gregg thought was similar to Dennis' in sound and feel, and it's a really good reading of Dennis' music. So Taylor Hawkins is legit as a big fan of the Wilsons in general, had the blessing of one of Dennis' closest friends and collaborators, and has more cred within the fan base than some of the others.
	11:42am clarke: long ago, when on REM's #2 bus, peter buck had a lot of this footage, but on crappy quality VHS tapes. not sure how he got them, and if i knew i'd be dead.
	11:42am Montmaster J: I think it's only on Disney +....we joined and will unjoin after this month.....
	11:42am Squints: I love the Tempts Smokeyish take on this, but this one, yowza.
	11:44am Squints: I still ain't made up my mind about Toledo.
	11:44am Montmaster J: You are, of course, invited to come over and watch it ;)
	11:44am clarke: ha ha ha ha ha - hoboken?!?
	11:45am P-90: The art of the Spoken Word Intro Song
	11:45am Squints: "That's another thing there ain't no of."
	11:45am Listener Baby: Amazing recording this
	11:45am myron feld: Sister Wynona Carr and Frances Faye have very similar speaking voices. Singing voices is another story. And I love Frances.
	11:46am clarke: what cartoon, Squints?? (memory only half there)
	11:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...terrible terrible terrible things in the world - but then! - an Otis Redding track I don't know yet. Do you reckon Judy Henske was very into Wynona Carr ??
	11:46am Squints: stan freberg, christmas dragnet.
	11:47am Lizardner Dave !: TIL recently is after his yo yo career Kenny Strass went on to play Colin Robinson on What We Do in the Shadows.
	11:47am clarke: ahhhhh YES!!
	11:47am Montmaster J: Going to see Dylan Wednesday at the Capitol.....first time.
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I read that Get Back will debut around Thanksgiving - & then be on demand on Disney+ after this. It is 7.8 Hours not just 6. Rumor is the home release will be 12 Hours !
	11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...7.8 hours, in three parts...
	11:50am clarke: two-fer!!!!!
	11:50am Fuchs Audio: this lemon twigs tune sounding a lot like Todd Rungren ?
	11:51am clarke: deliberately!!
	11:51am Frank In Queens: @Fuchs, I agree. I thought it was Todd the first time I heard it.
	11:51am Michael Shelley: FA- 100%
	11:51am Vistavision: Last night’s Dylan show may have been the best I’ve seen, and I’ve seen many, both good and bad. His vote was smooth and marvelous, his upright pianist playing was spirited and really rockin’ indeed. Really great. He can’t live forever… go!
	11:52am Fuchs Audio: They clearly (and quite nicely) show their influences on their sleeves, and I quite like it...
	11:52am clarke: Frank: our lovely host hath started the MovieTime, methinks??
	11:52am Frank In Queens: Watched Fast Times At Ridgemont High last night.
	11:53am clarke: awe-sommmme!!
	11:54am clarke: nice car, Jefferson, you've been keeping it up wonderfully!!
	11:54am PatrickMC: That ain't Brother Barry! But not bad
	11:54am Michael Shelley: FIQ - one of my all time top tens
	11:54am Corey: Morning Michael and listeners! Rare Saturday work day made better by stream of #1's!
	11:54am clarke: this week i saw When Trumpets Fade - which made me think of you, Frank, in that it is VERY Fuller!!
	11:55am Listener Baby: This is what we call, Way out over your skis.
	11:55am Handy Haversack: Hey, Corey!
	11:55am Andres: This is good.
	11:55am Frank In Queens: Gotta check that out clarke!
	11:56am ?: Hey ! Is that you and Mr. Fine Wine in this pic dining on Pell Street? https://gothamist.com/food/nyc-outdoor-dining-permanent Pic here : https://cdn.cms.prod.nypr.digital/images/2021092.2e16d0ba.fill-661x496.format-jpeg.jpegquality-80_KnU1XZO.jpg
	11:56am JimB: "What are you, a hand model?"
	11:56am clarke: someone has posted it on the youtube but as WarMovie
	11:57am Frank In Queens: @Michael, I've seem it a million times, but not for quite some time. I was able to appreciate it on a different level last night.
	11:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oddly enuff - written by the BeeGees 'about' Robert Stigwood I think it was - their Manager - & how impressed they were & needed him ! :D
	11:57am Frank In Queens: @clarke, thanks. I hope it's still up when I have a chance to check it out next week. This weekend is all hockey
	11:58am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dylan has had this outstanding band for years now, yeah ?
	11:58am Listener Baby: Now SHE can ski
	11:58am clarke: all hockey all the time!
	11:58am Dennis Diken: it is written that Joe Pesci introduced the “two yutes” Bob Gaudio to Frankie Valli. “Sir” Joe Pesci, for that alone.
	11:59am Moammar: The Ur-Drells!
	11:59am Frank In Queens: @clarke, the Isles are opening the new arena this weekend.
	12:00pm clarke: you do the hockey pocky - that's what it's all about, apparently.
	12:00pm myron feld: re: Fast Times: Phoebe Cates is my third cousin. I've never met her.
	12:01pm clarke: Hi Brad (cue The Cars Moving In Stereo)
	12:02pm Michael Shelley: Clarke - you read my mind
	12:02pm Corey: Hey Handy! Happy Saturday!
	12:02pm clarke: ha ha ha - naw
	12:03pm Frank In Queens: The Criterion version has the clip from the pool house scene that was cut in order for the film to avoid an X rating.
	12:03pm Listener Baby: Let’s talk under-rated amazing drummers right here.
	12:03pm myron feld: @Baby: Paul Thompson, the number onest.
	12:03pm gf2002: Also worth noting Pesci's character in Goodfellas was renamed "Tommy DeVito", who the real Tommy DeVito was also Pesci's and Valli's mutual friend and founder of the Four Seasons. Love playing six degrees of Pesci...
	12:04pm clarke: and phil manzanera - also underrated.
	12:04pm PatrickMC: @baby. Just thinking exact same
	12:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Drums & their Recording here.
	12:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Funky, Driving, Tight & Swingin' all @ once.
	12:06pm clarke: and unique snare sound to be sure - sometimes bad is good.
	12:06pm egould310: Love is the drug. But so are drugs.
	12:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Drums is the Drug
	12:07pm clarke: no vocoder for Frampton - it was a TalkBox - which is an air-tube connected to a distortion/fuzz unit
	12:07pm Listener Baby: @Clake. It’s almost like the snares were lifted on that Roxy track. Almost.
	12:07pm Paul: Sounds like a theme song to a 60s sitcom.
	12:10pm clarke: i think it goes for around $8
	12:10pm Greg from ZONE 5: Nah, FCA is still dirt cheap. But I did see a store in NOLA attempting to get $60 for a copy of Born In The USA.
	12:11pm Frank In Queens: @clarke @michael, yes, a stock copy in decent shape goes for about $8 - $10.
	12:11pm gf2002: A comedian had a joke that every house in the suburbs had a copy of Frampton Comes Alive waiting on the doorstep for every family that moved to a new home.
	12:11pm clarke: i like the album.
	12:11pm Frank In Queens: BUT I saw someone by an ok stock copy of Rumours on the street for $40!
	12:11pm Dennis Diken: @gf2002 - yes - also, Tommy Devito was Pesci's personal assistant for a long time in recent years.
	12:12pm Erella: Vinyl that was in everyone's collection isn't as valuable as the rarities. Did every male record collector own a copy of Whipped Cream & Other Delights by Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass? Wonder what that one was worth
	12:12pm clarke: you can still find Whipped Cream!! very avail.
	12:13pm Erella: Yes. The vinyl is still in great shape because (many) people bought it for the cover. It is still in every thrift store LP bin
	12:14pm clarke: scooby dooooooooo
	12:14pm Squints: My Pop had a copy of WC&OD. Along with the rest of the TJB oeuvre.
	12:15pm clarke: one of the records that 'taught' me drums (hal blaine)
	12:15pm Moammar: I hope all the Joe Tex lovers out there have seen the Joe Tex show live in Sweden on YouTube. Stellar version of this song: www.youtube.com...
	12:15pm clarke: gotta watch that!!
	12:16pm gf2002: It's all about demand, when you have new listeners under 25 years of age trying to buy up vinyl, the price of anything "original" or "vintage" in a shop can be marked up and they will pay $14.99 for albums I find at yard sales for a buck or less. I remember the 90's Space Age Bachelor Pad Music craze when shops in Boston were selling Jackie Gleason and Martin Denny albums for 10-15 bucks because of the covers I think. And anything Esquivel at that time was through the roof.
	12:17pm clarke: told this before, but: in college, my bandmate and i snuck into Joe Tex's baton rouge abandoned mansion on highland road near LSU. spooky!!
	12:17pm myron feld: I went to this record store in Lexington KY that has a wall of "Whipped Cream and Other Delights" -- i.redd.it...
	12:17pm McGroovey: This Joe Tex song is living proof that sometimes a songwriter spends too much time struggling over lyrics, when just the three or four lines you thought of in the first ten seconds will do.
	12:17pm Erella: Myron! That is hilarious!
	12:18pm Squints: myron, with maybe the odd Right To Chews cover just to break it up?
	12:18pm Joe B: re Get Back - just subscribe for one month and cancel. It's 7 dollars. it's cheaper than renting three movies.
	12:18pm Squints: I like that Joe Tex's bass player was properly Earthed.
	12:18pm DG: RE: "Frampton Comes Alive"---that joke is in "Wayne's World 2." Wayne says that if you lived in the suburbs, you were "issued it. It came in the mail with packages of Tide." Not that a comic wouldn't have "borrowed"that joke, or had the same idea.
	12:19pm clarke: i never watch a movie that has a number behind the title.
	12:20pm Listener Baby: Man I love this one!,, is this the JD Mc guy on drums?
	12:20pm gf2002: @DG I forgot about Wayne's World 2, lol. I think Wayne "borrowed" the joke from a stand-up routine but it's still a classic line.
	12:20pm clarke: and yes, never seen Godfather 2 front to back
	12:20pm ChrisB.: Getting ready for Saturday night with The Ribeye Brothers at Asbury Lanes!
	12:21pm Michael Shelley: LB- jason Smay - I think so!
	12:21pm Joe B: nice Chris. have fun!
	12:21pm Cooh John: That Todd can party.
	12:21pm Listener Baby: I never knew that. Respect!,,
	12:22pm Joe B: Yes, definitely Jason Smay on drums!
	12:23pm Paul: @Joe B, good idea! I had Hulu for one month just to watch the McCartney documentary.
	12:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Reminds me a little of Status Quo's 1st album (Matchstick Men).
	12:24pm Cooh John: Had Jason play for my birthday years ago.🙌
	12:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Freakbeat...
	12:25pm clarke: i was only going to keep amazon prime for a (free) month to watch Longboat - but, i will say that it has been worth it to pay for.
	12:26pm phat in Lincoln: No, we don't get any respect! Thanks Michael.
	12:26pm Listener Baby: Got to run. You done good, Baby! Enjoy your weekend, everybody!
	12:26pm Paul: "Marijuana is the flame, heroin is the fuse, LSD is the bomb." Sgt. Joe Friday
	12:27pm PatrickMC: More accordion plz
	12:27pm clarke: he's still not sure about Toledo.
	12:28pm clarke: baby - BABY!!! ADIEU
	12:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Marijuana is RubberSoul, heroin is the WhiteAlbum, LSD is Revolver/Pepper.
	12:31pm Dennis Diken: Jason Smay might be the greatest living drummer…on earth, that is
	12:34pm Cooh John: Agree, DD. What about Toledo,?
	12:35pm P-90: Sunset & Larrabee: cool location (especially back then)
	12:36pm Greg from ZONE 5: Bobbie, all day every day.
	12:38pm Michael Shelley: P-90 - Pussycat Theater, Tower, Filthy McNasty's, Turners, Licorice Pizza, Falafel place with pinball - Whiskey & Roxy just blocks away
	12:38pm pp: Michael, from last week, your comment calling Bogdanovich's "They All Laughed" a train wreck is misguided. It's a masterclass in perspective tracking shots and filming in the middle of Manhattan chaos.
	12:40pm clarke: that's basically the Sunset Strip, right?
	12:42pm davefromtoronto: a show called michael shelley..?
	12:43pm Michael Shelley: Jason Smay is one of those musicians who knows how to bring his personal style to every project & make it fit, while still maintaining his thing. Not always easy.
	12:46pm phat in Lincoln: That Sly and the Family Stone performance in Summer of Soul is ridiculously good.
	12:46pm Tim from LH: Jason Smay blew my mind first time I saw him play In Maxwells.
	12:46pm Michael Shelley: w/ the drummer sitting sideways!?
	12:47pm KWilde: Digging the instruméntales today!
	12:48pm Frank In Queens: SUPERGRASS!!
	12:48pm phat in Lincoln: @Michael Shelley yes!
	12:49pm Paul: What happened to Supergrass and Cornershop?
	12:50pm Joe B: Supergrass had a reunion tour booked for the US in summer of 2020.
	12:51pm Paul: @Joe B, no kidding?
	12:51pm Chris Hiatt: Margaret Glaspy = awesome.
	12:51pm gf2002: Supergrass is one of the best bands from that era. "In It For The Money" is a fantastic album. One of my all-time favorites.
	12:52pm clarke: NOT my fault!! signed, TT#1
	12:52pm McGroovey: It's almost 1:00? Dang.
	12:53pm Joe B: @paul - absolutely. they split in 2010. there is a (mostly) finished album from 2009-10 era that remains unreleased
	12:53pm PatrickMC: Undertones bastard kids?
	12:53pm gf2002: When they played Boston, a guy I knew was walking on Newbury Street and spotted them walking around too. No one knew them. He introduced himself and ended up taking them to John Fluevog to shop for shoes. That same guy also worked as a roadie for Superdrag, another amazing band.
	12:53pm radioronan: Great show.Thanks Michael!
	12:54pm phat in Lincoln: Oh hell yes, Only Ones
	12:54pm Greg from ZONE 5: PERFECT SONG.
	12:55pm Corey: Thanks for the great show Michael! Take care all!
	12:55pm phat in Lincoln: I know someone who says Another Girl is the greatest pop single of all time. Hard to argue.
	12:55pm gf2002: Supergrass, Superdrag, Superchunk...
	12:55pm clarke: it's the worst deal we've ever had!! #1 #1 #1
	12:55pm jmd: The best not-Soft Boys song ever!
	12:55pm Frank In Queens: Supergrass is my fave from that Britpop scene. Head and shoulders above all the others IMO. Hoping they can reschedule those dates i had tix for from last year, but we shall see.
	12:56pm egould310: Awesome show, Michael. Great opener song. Great closing song. It’s almost like you know what you’re doing. :-)
	12:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY As Ever DJ MS ~
	12:57pm Paul: Better than Blur, Frank?
	12:57pm phat in Lincoln: Hot damn
	12:57pm Frank Zaatar: Is there such a thing as a timeless time machine? Cause that's the Only Ones.
	12:57pm PatrickMC: Buddy Holly covers day. #1. Now do Bobby Fuller 4!
	12:57pm Moammar: Riddle dee pat.
	12:57pm Frank In Queens: @Paul. Better than Blur. I like the rock and Supergrass brings the rock.
	12:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Buddy - Moses of PowerPop. Dead @ 21.
	12:58pm Paul: Fair enough.
	12:58pm Joe B: agreed Frank. I like Blur but not even close in my book!
	12:58pm Frank In Queens: And Road To Rouen is their best. I've probably said that every time someone players Supergrass on this station.
	12:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: *22
	12:59pm clarke: tom.
	12:59pm Frank In Queens: Tom Carvel!
	12:59pm gf2002: Fudgie The Whale!
	12:59pm phat in Lincoln: Oh, the days of WOR on cable...
	12:59pm clarke: goo'nite.
	12:59pm PatrickMC: Dumpy the pumpkin rools
	1:00pm Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, Michael!
	1:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Supergrass - BritPop with some more Fun & less Posture...
	2:48pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Michael!
	3:59pm Bob: We sell Frampton Comes Alive and much pedestrian stuff of that ilk very regularly. It's nothing like selling a clean Kinks, Stones or mono Beatles, but it's steady. Clean classic rock is always reliable. Ten or twelve bucks. Considering we generally pick them up for a buck or less, thats a huge profit. Much better than the three bucks I was lucky to make on a new CD in a retail store during the peak of disc sales.
