	9:11am Doug Schulkind: Howdy there, dutchtheo!
	9:12am adamdoesit: Doug, I dig these century-old sounds. As Adam Phillips might say, the difference between trad and rad is only t(ime).

	9:12am fred: Good morning Doug and drummers

	9:14am Doug Schulkind: Nice to see you Polyus! I realize our piddly 5°F is beach weather to you Minneapolitans! Good afternoon, fred!
	9:14am TDK60: Yikes Doug. 5F. I suppose a little foxtrot round Studio P may warm things a bit.
	9:15am fred: @Doug: Looks like a good day to play the finest in Inuit marching bands
	9:15am Doug Schulkind: Try to avoid the ice cubes, coelacanth∅!
	9:15am Andrew in Toronto: Hiya coel!

	9:20am chresti: Bone jour Doug and drummers !
	🥁 9:20am Brian in UK: At least we are not in Ukraine in Winter.
	9:20am hyde: @coel yeah once the sun goes down here tonight, everything will turn to solid ice
	9:21am Doug Schulkind: Warm greetings, chresti!
	9:21am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK You make a fine point, Sir.
	9:21am adamdoesit: BiUK, warmth to the heroes, and amen.
	9:22am chresti: 47 in San Gabriel @ 6:21
	9:22am Webhamster Henry: It's supposedly 52°F now in Kingston, will hit 32°F by 3 and go down to 12°F or so by midnight. That means: ice everywhere.
	9:23am Doug Schulkind: Just dropped another degree to 4°F! I KNOW we can do it. Now I think shooting for 0°F lacked ambition. Can we GO NEGATIVE?!?!
	🥁 9:23am PAULS: I'd settle for a luke warm mama at this point.
	9:24am Alex In Illinois: Hi Y'all. -7 F / -22 C in Chicago
	9:24am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:23 And don't forget the MATCHING FUND! We have to reach 0° by the show's end or we'll have to ask to give the degrees back.
	9:24am Andrew in Toronto: Hiya cresti!
	9:25am holland oats: four degrees of separation?
	🥁 9:26am bobdc: Hey Doug! If your daughter still plays the viola, here's a fun fact: in old time jazz, when you hear a banjo, it's not a five-string tuned to an open G chord like bluegrass people use; it's a four-string tenor banjo tuned C G D A--like a viola!
	9:27am Doug Schulkind: @Alex in Illinois My wife is from Chicago. She laughs at all this severe weather hooey. I'm not sure she's even wearing socks (or anything else!)
	9:28am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:27 @bobdc And—voilà!—just like that it's a banjo!
	9:28am alanr: It's a cool 49F here in Mexico city. No sign of snow, just our usual polluted air. High later of 68F. Glad to be listening again.
	9:29am Doug Schulkind: Nice to see you as always, alanr!
	9:31am Uncle Michael: hold that weasel?
	🥁 9:31am sinner: Not ashamed to pipe in 19F / WC5 in Montgomery.
	9:31am Doug Schulkind: @sinner There will be no temperature shaming here! We're all in this together.
	9:33am Doug Schulkind: The Original Memphis Melody Boys were from Chicago, of course.
	9:33am chresti: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:24 Hiya!
	🥁 9:34am Brian in UK: Sem sent me this weather link a year or two back. earth.nullschool.net...
	9:36am chresti: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:27 I'm from Wheaton 20 mi west of Chicago. My dad moved us to CA in '65.
	9:37am zzz: greeting DJ DS and folks, happy friday!
	9:38am Uncle Michael: chresti, did you grow up with the Belushis?
	9:39am Uncle Michael: Like when you wet you your thumb to turn a page in a book or to count money.
	9:39am adamdoesit: Wetting your thumb, obviously, being a traditional method of measuring wind chill.
	9:43am TDK60: Excitement about weather changes is not really a kind of blowing things out of proportion, is it?
	🥁 9:43am sinner: (……did anyone else catch Doug’s affectionate quip about the good wife Ms. Jessie?)
	9:44am Doug Schulkind: Glad you woke up in time for the show, zzz!
	9:45am Doug Schulkind: @sinner That's no quip, Sir, that's my wife!
	9:45am chresti: I did not UM. And I never met my distant cousin Red Grange.
	🥁 9:45am Brian in UK: Remember folks, drying your back holding a towel with both hands & stubbing out cigarettes with your feet.
	9:46am bigplanetnoise: Morning, Doug & friends! Brrr!
	🥁 9:47am sinner: Shiver me timbers!
	9:48am zzz: i am home listening with my 2y.o. and she was absolutely loving that bush baby twist!!
	9:48am Doug Schulkind: My urn is overflowing for you, bigplanetnoise!
	🥁 9:48am Brian in UK: sinner is it speak like a parrot day already?
	9:48am chresti: ↳ Song: "Kenya Twist" by "John Ondolo" This is why I wake up at such a ridiculous time every Friday!
	9:48am Doug Schulkind: ↳ zzz @9:48 I'm delighted to know it!
	9:49am TDK60: Somehow I knew you'd like that, chresti.
	9:49am Sam Segal: Good morning, Doug and Other Weather-Participants!
	9:49am Gina Bacon: Morning, Doug & everyone!
	9:49am Doug Schulkind: We're on the move again. Hello, 3°F!!!
	🥁 9:50am Brian in UK: chresti, how could you not join this nutty radio family.
	9:50am Doug Schulkind: Goodest morning to you, Sam Segal! And helllloooooo, Gina Bacon! How's the Big Apple looking?!?
	🥁 9:51am sinner: ↳ Brian in UK @9:48 Only with a Red Skelton voice imitation.
	9:52am Gina Bacon: Beautiful as always, Doug! Rainy now, but the bottom is dropping out soon!
	9:52am Doug Schulkind: ↳ sinner @9:51 I adored Red Skelton as a wee lad. It was nice to have red-headed role models out there.
	9:53am chresti: ↳ Brian in UK @9:50 Right?
	9:53am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Gina Bacon @9:52 Loving your snaps of the city on FB!
	9:54am chresti: ↳ TDK60 @9:49 TDK6o gets me\\//
	9:54am Gina Bacon: Thank you! I’ve got hundreds!
	9:54am bigplanetnoise: Morning, GFB!
	9:55am Doug Schulkind: Kenyan newspaper announcing the death of John Nzenze in May 2020: www.mwakilishi.com...
	9:55am Gina Bacon: Morning, BPN! Brrrrrr!
	9:56am Webhamster Henry: This set is so Swingin' Safari.
	9:56am Doug Schulkind: Hope I'm getting all your knickers in a twist!
	9:57am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:56 Should I play something from my copy of Elvis In Nairobi?
	9:59am Doug Schulkind: All but one of the "twists" in this set are from Kenya/Tanzania or South Africa. The closing twist is from Benin. And it is the king of all African twist performances.
	🥁 10:00am Brian in UK: My Dad used to have a copy. Woman dressed in safari outfit?
	10:01am Doug Schulkind: There actually is a Kenya country music performer who goes by the name Sir Elvis.
	10:02am Doug Schulkind: I was in error earlier. This King Kennytone (Kenny Otone) number is from Nigeria.
	10:03am Mr C: What an inspired set! Twistin' the Morning Away!
	10:04am TDK60: I didn't know there'd been a twist thing in Africa. Did Chubby Checker ever tour there?
	🥁 10:04am PAULS: Absolutely nothing that the right hand claps can't fix.
	10:04am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Mr C @10:03 More perspiration than inspiration, amirite?!?
	10:05am Doug Schulkind: And a bit of... peep-peep!!!
	10:05am WR: ↳ Song: "Jealous Down Twist" by "Spokes Mashiyane & His Ma... Ha Ha Ha.
	10:05am Doug Schulkind: @TDK60 That's a helluva question. I don't beliee he did, but I'm sure it's a knowable fact.
	10:06am Andrew in Toronto: Hi there WR!
	10:07am Doug Schulkind: The greatest African twister of them all (IMHO) coming up next.
	10:07am Sem: Good morning, Doug, and the drummer some organisation.
	10:07am WR: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @10:06 Happy Friday!
	10:08am Doug Schulkind: Welcome welcome, Sem!
	10:09am Stan Lee: Hi Doug. My boys are on their way.
	🥁 10:09am sinner: The only bottom dropping out is at Doug’s house.
	10:10am Andrew in Toronto: Greets Sem!
	10:10am TDK60: I just looked on the Wickedpee page for Chubby Checker. No mention there of such tours. (But Wikip. not always complete.) But I did see in his discography there that Chubby did a folk album in 1964. I knew not.
	10:10am Sem: waves his beret Stanley! Andrew in TO, right back at you.
	10:12am Andrew in Toronto: Hi Stan!
	10:12am wenzo: Howdy Doug
	10:12am chresti: ↳ Song: "Congo (pt. 1)" by "The Twistin' Kings" Motown!
	🥁 10:12am doctorjazz: G'morning all!
	10:12am Stan Lee: Sem, Ol' Chum!
	10:13am Andrew in Toronto: Hi there doc!
	10:13am Stan Lee: Hey Andrew
	10:13am Stan Lee: Teedy!
	🥁 10:15am doctorjazz: Hello Andrew!
	10:16am TDK60: Ahoy Stan Lee, up there Alba way.
	10:17am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Stan Lee @10:09 Glad to see you, doctorjazz! Stan Lee! wenzo!
	10:25am Andrew in Toronto: Hey Stan!
	10:26am Doug Schulkind: Down to 2°F! Woohoo! How low will we go?!?
	10:27am Andrew in Toronto: We`ll be getting up to 5 inches of snow today.
	10:29am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @10:27 I'm sure that's just a walk in the park for you Northlanders.
	10:29am fred: Coincidentally, I saw Joëlle Léandre at work last week. She spent a day working in a studio there, my guess is that is related to research about live improvisation by AI
	10:29am Andrew in Toronto: Well put Doug.
	10:32am Doug Schulkind: ↳ fred @10:29 A sweet coincidence indeed. Thanks for sharing that, fred.
	10:37am fred: A couple of years ago I had a chance to chat with her after a show and she told me she gets a better reception in the US than in France (bigger audience, better pay and venues)
	10:37am Uncle Michael: We just made it above zero!
	10:39am Doug Schulkind: ↳ fred @10:37 In the 1970s Joëlle moved to Buffalo, New York. She has always seen greener pastures here in the U.S. Which is an oddity given how many American improvising artists had moved to Europe (and especially Paris) in the 1950s and '60s.
	10:40am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Uncle Michael @10:37 I think we're about to pass you on the way down.
	10:42am Jeff Golick: A joyous Joël to all!
	10:44am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:42 A noisiest Joël to you, Jëff!
	10:48am fred: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:39 I think Barre Phillips did the opposite move around the same time
	🥁 10:52am Zipperhead7: Douglas! Drumedaries! Zipperdawg and I got into the "holiday tipple" yesterday and were so excited during Larry Grogan's show that we did the shing-a-ling. Since it's supposed to be so cold tomorrow, I'm gonna take out the driver's seat so he can reach the pedals and drive himself around until it warms up.
	10:55am Doug Schulkind: Mother Nature was waiting for me to finish the mic break before letting me know that... We've reached 1°F! Down down down we go!
	10:56am Sam Segal: Doug, I’m only now realizing this artist’s name is pronounced “Wise Blood.” Thank you for saving me from years of continued embarrassment!
	10:56am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:52 Welcome to the whole ZipperFamily!
	10:57am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Sam Segal @10:56 I triple-checked before announcing!
	10:58am Jeff Moore: You are in negative degrees, you silly fellow! 1 in the ridiculous Fahrenheit system I assume you're using is -17 in sensible Celsius. If you're below freezing, you're negative. That just makes practical sense. Give up on that absurd-ass temperature scale wher zero is pinned at the lowest temperature that Fahrenheit guy could reach with a particular salt slurry, and 100 is... Fahrenheit with a fever one day?
	10:58am Doug Schulkind: Natalie Laura Mering (Weyes Blood) makes an appearance as a talking head in the recently released Judee Sill documentary.
	10:59am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Moore @10:58 I've always liked the way you think, Mr. Moore!
	10:59am Jeff Moore: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:59 That makes one of you!
	11:00am zzz: Titanic Rising is so great. actually got this on a marathon premium a few years ago, i think Irwin’s show? lots of listens, beautiful music
	11:01am Doug Schulkind: ↳ zzz @11:00 So very beautiful. Soaring and unpretentious.
	11:01am Jeff Golick: ↳ Sam Segal @10:56 Ditto. (Sorry, Ms. Blood!)
	11:02am Jeff Moore: ↳ Sam Segal @10:56 I only know that because DJs pronunciating.
	11:02am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Golick @11:01 She used to be Weyes Bluhd. Then she came to her senses.
	11:03am Doug Schulkind: As a young teen, I was a huge fan of Joan Armatrading. Now that I'm older and wiser, I am only huger.
	11:04am Andrew in Toronto: Happy Chunakkah Jeff.
	11:04am TDK60: It's -17.222222 in Pittsburgh. Fahrenheit is only used in the USA, right? Reminds me of an Arlo Guthrie tune about Yankees never giving up inches. hanging on to the inches with our cold dead fingers, one might say.
	11:05am Doug Schulkind: And from Joan Armatrading to my first musical crush.... Maddy Prior.
	11:05am WR: ↳ Song: "Sheep-Crook and Black Dog" by "Steeleye Span" Yes, love this.
	11:05am hyde: love Maddy Prior too
	11:06am TDK60: Doug, I dig Joan A. And now, the Steeleye Span selection sounds apt now, somehow. Down here below the salt.
	11:06am Doug Schulkind: I went to a Christmas Eve performance by Steeley Span, and at the end of the show, then had bundles of dollar bills flutter down from above all over the audience. So trippy!
	11:07am Doug Schulkind: ↳ hyde @11:05 There is enough Maddy Prior for all.
	11:09am fred: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:05 Were you in high school at the time?
	11:10am chresti: ↳ Song: "It Could Have Been Better" by "Joan Armatrading" Joan was reminding me of Elton there
	11:10am Jeff Golick: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:02 Gotta steer clear of Flannery O'Connor's legal goon squad.
	11:10am Doug Schulkind: ↳ fred @11:09 Must have been in the late '70s. So yes.
	11:11am Doug Schulkind: Flannery O'Connor Goon Squad was the name of my first band in high school.
	11:11am Doug Schulkind: Market in the cool white mornin' Merchants sell while women buy Milk, tobacco, soap and matches Sweep the floor While the dishes dry Spring whispered in her ear Like soft Mediterranean wailin' Sleepy woman by the window Dreamin' in the morning air Of the one who takes her sweetness By a chinese lamp upstairs The steam of china tea You could hear the woman sing In the soft flames of spring Spring has swept the scarlet side streets Winds caress, undress, invite Upstairs by a china lamp They softly talk in the cool spring night
	11:13am Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Upstairs By a Chinese Lamp" by "Laura Nyro" This is lovely.
	11:14am adamdoesit: I feel comfortable with ridiculous, absurd-ass Fahrenheit. All my common weathers fall between 0 and 100 degrees. Easy. I guess I could get used to redefining dangerously hot as 38 degrees, but it'd take me a while.
	11:14am Doug Schulkind: Eddie Hinton plays on this Laura Nyro record. So does Duane Allman.
	11:15am Webhamster Henry: Subtle hammered dulcimer alert.
	11:15am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:13 Greetings, Rich in Washington!
	11:15am chresti: ↳ adamdoesit @11:14 Celsius is only fun when it's cold.
	11:15am Franco Twinkie: Hey Doug. I love that record. I t's in here, but where?
	11:16am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:15 Is that an alert that is subtle, or an alert about a subtle hammered dulcimer?
	11:16am TDK60: ↳ adamdoesit @11:14 I suppose any USians above a certain age will be grandfathered out of the New Correct Way.
	11:16am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:15 I love it that you love it, Franco Twinkie.
	🥁 11:16am Zipperhead7: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:14 Yeah, always thought it was pretty cool that Brother Duane was down with Laura
	11:17am Rich in Washington: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:15 Hello Doug! Happy eve eve. Hope you and the fam are keeping warm and that you have a splendid holiday!
	11:17am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:16 Anyone not down with Laura Nyro is written out of my will forever.
	11:17am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:16 Given the chance, I think we would all be down with Laura.
	11:18am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:17 All good here, Rich! Love and warmth to you and yours!
	🥁 11:18am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:11 I wanted in Flannery O'Connor Goon Squad SO BAD. But... good band mates are hard to find and they just couldn't find me.
	11:18am TDK60: Love Ms. Nyro, a New York sound, if I may be regional.
	11:19am Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Franco!
	11:20am Doug Schulkind: ↳ TDK60 @11:18 I think that's fair to say. If I may suggest an origin of that aspect of her having a "New York" sound, might it be her overt theatricality? An almost Broadway-esque flair for the dramatic?
	11:20am Franco Twinkie: Howdy Andrew. I just got up.
	11:20am adamdoesit: ↳ chresti @11:15 Precisely!
	11:21am TDK60: Ho Andrew up there, Franco out there. / Doug, that sounds plausible.
	🥁 11:21am Zipperhead7: ↳ PAULS @11:18 Best laugh I've had today, PAULS. Everything that rises must converge.Or, as she put it in her letters, "Every Rabbit that Rises is a Sage."
	🥁 11:22am PAULS: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:21 Glad to be o'service, Zhd7!
	11:22am Doug Schulkind: Gobs of love and good vibes going out to Robert Flack who recently revealed that she's carrying a diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
	11:23am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:20 I've only seen it once, but the outtakes from Monterey Pop shows Laura in all her somber majesty. Supposedly she had an emotional breakdown after her performance.
	11:24am Doug Schulkind: ↳ PAULS @11:18 We'll send out the bloodhounds. Or maybe the Weyes Bloodhounds.
	🥁 11:25am Zipperhead7: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:23 I'd heard that performance was a disaster but I never understood why
	11:26am Doug Schulkind: We lost Judy to lung cancer in 2020. So many incandescent artists died in that first COVID year.
	11:29am Uncle Michael: Anyone wanna come over and listen to records after the show? Hinky Dinky Time is coming up at the top of the hour. I'll save you a bean bag chair. wfmu.org...
	11:30am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:25 Maybe she thought 'I'm not part of this thing' But of course she was. The goth side of hippiness perhaps?
	11:30am Andrew in Toronto: Hiya Franco!
	11:30am Franco Twinkie: ANDREW!!
	11:31am Andrew in Toronto: Hey TDK60. Merry Christmas.
	11:31am TDK60: Franco, did Nyro perform solo at Monterey? That can be intimidating.
	11:32am Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @11:31 Yes. In a low-cut black dress!
	11:33am Ken From Hyde Park: Festivus and a new moon. What a day!
	11:34am TDK60: I used to see Roberta F. walking around the Upper West Side of NYC. She lived in the same building as Yoko O.
	11:36am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:33 Hey there, Ken From Hyde Park!
	11:37am Doug Schulkind: ↳ TDK60 @11:34 Here's a look inside Robert Flack's apartment in the Dakota: www.6sqft.com...
	11:38am Rich in Washington: Love crying records
	11:39am Doug Schulkind: Big Maybelle, the Velvet Sandblaster.
	11:40am Doug Schulkind: "Ocean of Tears" written by Sid Wyche who also wrote "Alright, Okay, You Win" for Elvis and "A Big Hunk o' Love" for Jackie Wilson.
	🥁 11:40am Zipperhead7: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:39 Love her version of 96 Tears. When she sings "And when the sun comes up, I'll be on top/You'll be down there, looking up," you better believe it
	11:42am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:40 Whatever you say, Ms. Maybelle.
	11:42am Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @11:34 I never saw Roberta walking around, but once a friend and I were walking thru the West Village on a rainy night and we saw Ric Ocasek and Paulina Porizkova getting slices of pizza.
	11:44am TDK60: Franco, even though Mr. Ocasek achieved fame in a town called Boston somewhere, he at least knew where the good pizza is.
	🥁 11:44am Zipperhead7: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:42 A friend passed Garbo (!) on the Upper East Side on a blazingly hot day. As she walked by, she muttered "This is madness."
	11:45am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:44 It seems she vahnted to be alone.
	11:46am Jeff Golick: ↳ TDK60 @11:44 This is an excellent point. I once saw Ocasek on the sidelines of an AYSO soccer game. I believe his grandchild was playing opposite my child.
	11:47am Jeff Golick: ↳ Jeff Golick @11:46 I kept yelling, "Shake it up, team! Shake it up!" - to no avail.
	11:47am Doug Schulkind: Uncle Michael does not vahnt to be alone. He wants to commingle with Hinky Dinky Humanity!! Join Uncle Michael over here at the top of the hour: wfmu.org...

	10:37am fred: A couple of years ago I had a chance to chat with her after a show and she told me she gets a better reception in the US than in France (bigger audience, better pay and venues)
	10:37am Uncle Michael: We just made it above zero!
	10:39am Doug Schulkind: ↳ fred @10:37 In the 1970s Joëlle moved to Buffalo, New York. She has always seen greener pastures here in the U.S. Which is an oddity given how many American improvising artists had moved to Europe (and especially Paris) in the 1950s and '60s.
	10:40am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Uncle Michael @10:37 I think we're about to pass you on the way down.
	10:42am Jeff Golick: A joyous Joël to all!
	10:44am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:42 A noisiest Joël to you, Jëff!
	10:48am fred: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:39 I think Barre Phillips did the opposite move around the same time
	🥁 10:52am Zipperhead7: Douglas! Drumedaries! Zipperdawg and I got into the "holiday tipple" yesterday and were so excited during Larry Grogan's show that we did the shing-a-ling. Since it's supposed to be so cold tomorrow, I'm gonna take out the driver's seat so he can reach the pedals and drive himself around until it warms up.
	10:55am Doug Schulkind: Mother Nature was waiting for me to finish the mic break before letting me know that... We've reached 1°F! Down down down we go!
	10:56am Sam Segal: Doug, I’m only now realizing this artist’s name is pronounced “Wise Blood.” Thank you for saving me from years of continued embarrassment!
	10:56am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:52 Welcome to the whole ZipperFamily!
	10:57am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Sam Segal @10:56 I triple-checked before announcing!
	10:58am Jeff Moore: You are in negative degrees, you silly fellow! 1 in the ridiculous Fahrenheit system I assume you're using is -17 in sensible Celsius. If you're below freezing, you're negative. That just makes practical sense. Give up on that absurd-ass temperature scale wher zero is pinned at the lowest temperature that Fahrenheit guy could reach with a particular salt slurry, and 100 is... Fahrenheit with a fever one day?
	10:58am Doug Schulkind: Natalie Laura Mering (Weyes Blood) makes an appearance as a talking head in the recently released Judee Sill documentary.
	10:59am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Moore @10:58 I've always liked the way you think, Mr. Moore!
	10:59am Jeff Moore: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:59 That makes one of you!
	11:00am zzz: Titanic Rising is so great. actually got this on a marathon premium a few years ago, i think Irwin’s show? lots of listens, beautiful music
	11:01am Doug Schulkind: ↳ zzz @11:00 So very beautiful. Soaring and unpretentious.
	11:01am Jeff Golick: ↳ Sam Segal @10:56 Ditto. (Sorry, Ms. Blood!)
	11:02am Jeff Moore: ↳ Sam Segal @10:56 I only know that because DJs pronunciating.
	11:02am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Jeff Golick @11:01 She used to be Weyes Bluhd. Then she came to her senses.
	11:03am Doug Schulkind: As a young teen, I was a huge fan of Joan Armatrading. Now that I'm older and wiser, I am only huger.
	11:04am Andrew in Toronto: Happy Chunakkah Jeff.
	11:04am TDK60: It's -17.222222 in Pittsburgh. Fahrenheit is only used in the USA, right? Reminds me of an Arlo Guthrie tune about Yankees never giving up inches. hanging on to the inches with our cold dead fingers, one might say.
	11:05am Doug Schulkind: And from Joan Armatrading to my first musical crush.... Maddy Prior.
	11:05am WR: ↳ Song: "Sheep-Crook and Black Dog" by "Steeleye Span" Yes, love this.
	11:05am hyde: love Maddy Prior too
	11:06am TDK60: Doug, I dig Joan A. And now, the Steeleye Span selection sounds apt now, somehow. Down here below the salt.
	11:06am Doug Schulkind: I went to a Christmas Eve performance by Steeley Span, and at the end of the show, then had bundles of dollar bills flutter down from above all over the audience. So trippy!
	11:07am Doug Schulkind: ↳ hyde @11:05 There is enough Maddy Prior for all.
	11:09am fred: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:05 Were you in high school at the time?
	11:10am chresti: ↳ Song: "It Could Have Been Better" by "Joan Armatrading" Joan was reminding me of Elton there
	11:10am Jeff Golick: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:02 Gotta steer clear of Flannery O'Connor's legal goon squad.
	11:10am Doug Schulkind: ↳ fred @11:09 Must have been in the late '70s. So yes.
	11:11am Doug Schulkind: Flannery O'Connor Goon Squad was the name of my first band in high school.
	11:11am Doug Schulkind: Market in the cool white mornin' Merchants sell while women buy Milk, tobacco, soap and matches Sweep the floor While the dishes dry Spring whispered in her ear Like soft Mediterranean wailin' Sleepy woman by the window Dreamin' in the morning air Of the one who takes her sweetness By a chinese lamp upstairs The steam of china tea You could hear the woman sing In the soft flames of spring Spring has swept the scarlet side streets Winds caress, undress, invite Upstairs by a china lamp They softly talk in the cool spring night
	11:13am Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Upstairs By a Chinese Lamp" by "Laura Nyro" This is lovely.
	11:14am adamdoesit: I feel comfortable with ridiculous, absurd-ass Fahrenheit. All my common weathers fall between 0 and 100 degrees. Easy. I guess I could get used to redefining dangerously hot as 38 degrees, but it'd take me a while.
	11:14am Doug Schulkind: Eddie Hinton plays on this Laura Nyro record. So does Duane Allman.
	11:15am Webhamster Henry: Subtle hammered dulcimer alert.
	11:15am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:13 Greetings, Rich in Washington!
	11:15am chresti: ↳ adamdoesit @11:14 Celsius is only fun when it's cold.
	11:15am Franco Twinkie: Hey Doug. I love that record. I t's in here, but where?
	11:16am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:15 Is that an alert that is subtle, or an alert about a subtle hammered dulcimer?
	11:16am TDK60: ↳ adamdoesit @11:14 I suppose any USians above a certain age will be grandfathered out of the New Correct Way.
	11:16am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:15 I love it that you love it, Franco Twinkie.
	🥁 11:16am Zipperhead7: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:14 Yeah, always thought it was pretty cool that Brother Duane was down with Laura
	11:17am Rich in Washington: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:15 Hello Doug! Happy eve eve. Hope you and the fam are keeping warm and that you have a splendid holiday!
	11:17am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:16 Anyone not down with Laura Nyro is written out of my will forever.
	11:17am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:16 Given the chance, I think we would all be down with Laura.
	11:18am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:17 All good here, Rich! Love and warmth to you and yours!
	🥁 11:18am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:11 I wanted in Flannery O'Connor Goon Squad SO BAD. But... good band mates are hard to find and they just couldn't find me.
	11:18am TDK60: Love Ms. Nyro, a New York sound, if I may be regional.
	11:19am Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Franco!
	11:20am Doug Schulkind: ↳ TDK60 @11:18 I think that's fair to say. If I may suggest an origin of that aspect of her having a "New York" sound, might it be her overt theatricality? An almost Broadway-esque flair for the dramatic?
	11:20am Franco Twinkie: Howdy Andrew. I just got up.
	11:20am adamdoesit: ↳ chresti @11:15 Precisely!
	11:21am TDK60: Ho Andrew up there, Franco out there. / Doug, that sounds plausible.
	🥁 11:21am Zipperhead7: ↳ PAULS @11:18 Best laugh I've had today, PAULS. Everything that rises must converge.Or, as she put it in her letters, "Every Rabbit that Rises is a Sage."
	🥁 11:22am PAULS: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:21 Glad to be o'service, Zhd7!
	11:22am Doug Schulkind: Gobs of love and good vibes going out to Robert Flack who recently revealed that she's carrying a diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
	11:23am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:20 I've only seen it once, but the outtakes from Monterey Pop shows Laura in all her somber majesty. Supposedly she had an emotional breakdown after her performance.
	11:24am Doug Schulkind: ↳ PAULS @11:18 We'll send out the bloodhounds. Or maybe the Weyes Bloodhounds.
	🥁 11:25am Zipperhead7: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:23 I'd heard that performance was a disaster but I never understood why
	11:26am Doug Schulkind: We lost Judy to lung cancer in 2020. So many incandescent artists died in that first COVID year.
	11:29am Uncle Michael: Anyone wanna come over and listen to records after the show? Hinky Dinky Time is coming up at the top of the hour. I'll save you a bean bag chair. wfmu.org...
	11:30am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:25 Maybe she thought 'I'm not part of this thing' But of course she was. The goth side of hippiness perhaps?
	11:30am Andrew in Toronto: Hiya Franco!
	11:30am Franco Twinkie: ANDREW!!
	11:31am Andrew in Toronto: Hey TDK60. Merry Christmas.
	11:31am TDK60: Franco, did Nyro perform solo at Monterey? That can be intimidating.
	11:32am Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @11:31 Yes. In a low-cut black dress!
	11:33am Ken From Hyde Park: Festivus and a new moon. What a day!
	11:34am TDK60: I used to see Roberta F. walking around the Upper West Side of NYC. She lived in the same building as Yoko O.
	11:36am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:33 Hey there, Ken From Hyde Park!
	11:37am Doug Schulkind: ↳ TDK60 @11:34 Here's a look inside Robert Flack's apartment in the Dakota: www.6sqft.com...
	11:38am Rich in Washington: Love crying records
	11:39am Doug Schulkind: Big Maybelle, the Velvet Sandblaster.
	11:40am Doug Schulkind: "Ocean of Tears" written by Sid Wyche who also wrote "Alright, Okay, You Win" for Elvis and "A Big Hunk o' Love" for Jackie Wilson.
	🥁 11:40am Zipperhead7: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:39 Love her version of 96 Tears. When she sings "And when the sun comes up, I'll be on top/You'll be down there, looking up," you better believe it
	11:42am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:40 Whatever you say, Ms. Maybelle.
	11:42am Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @11:34 I never saw Roberta walking around, but once a friend and I were walking thru the West Village on a rainy night and we saw Ric Ocasek and Paulina Porizkova getting slices of pizza.
	11:44am TDK60: Franco, even though Mr. Ocasek achieved fame in a town called Boston somewhere, he at least knew where the good pizza is.
	🥁 11:44am Zipperhead7: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:42 A friend passed Garbo (!) on the Upper East Side on a blazingly hot day. As she walked by, she muttered "This is madness."
	11:45am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:44 It seems she vahnted to be alone.
	11:46am Jeff Golick: ↳ TDK60 @11:44 This is an excellent point. I once saw Ocasek on the sidelines of an AYSO soccer game. I believe his grandchild was playing opposite my child.
	11:47am Jeff Golick: ↳ Jeff Golick @11:46 I kept yelling, "Shake it up, team! Shake it up!" - to no avail.
	11:47am Doug Schulkind: Uncle Michael does not vahnt to be alone. He wants to commingle with Hinky Dinky Humanity!! Join Uncle Michael over here at the top of the hour: wfmu.org...
	11:47am Mr C: Your bringing it on home Doug...
	11:47am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:40 Moment of clarity: Since 1966 when 96 Tears came out I always imagined that lyric to be some sort of Dylan metaphysical thing. Seen it typed out I just realized they're fucking! Good night nurse I'm slow.
	🥁 11:48am PAULS: I’d like to hear Santa’s version of this classic
	11:48am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Mr C @11:47 @Mr C A home for the holidays. All are welcome! Please take off your muddy boots in the vestibule!
	11:49am Doug Schulkind: Lenny Welch was sounding a bit Johnnie Ray-ish there.
	🥁 11:50am Zipperhead7: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:47 If it's any consolation, for decades I thought Mel Torme's honorific was "The Velvet Frog."
	11:50am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:50 The Velvet Smog, in my ill-considered opinion.
	11:50am Rich in Washington: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:50 The Velvet Frog. I love it!
	11:51am Andrew in Toronto: What another awesome show. Thanks a lot Doug. Merry Christmas and Happy Hunakkah everyone!
	11:52am Hopey Sockmonkey: Happy holidays/Merry Xmas Doug and Drummers!
	11:52am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:50 Mel did the greatest station ID'S for KFOG in San Francisco.
	11:52am adamdoesit: Thank you, Doug! Stay safe and warm, everyone.
	11:52am Mr C: Lenny Welch was a much better singer than Johnny Ray...
	11:52am hyde: great show, thanks!
	11:52am Doug Schulkind: The fantastic J.J. Barnes died two weeks ago at 79. Mr. Fine Wine aired an excellent send-off over on WFMU: www.wfmu.org...
	11:53am chresti: ↳ Hopey Sockmonkey @11:52 Merry holidays, Hopey!
	11:53am TDK60: Thanks DJ Doug.
	11:53am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Mr C @11:52 Johnnie Ray was an emoter.
	11:53am chresti: Thanks Doug!
	🥁 11:54am Zipperhead7: Thanx Doug! The Zips wish all a Fab Kringle and a Gear New Year, as the Liverpudlian moptops used to say
	11:54am Franco Twinkie: Thanks Doug. Off I go to wash a mountain of dishes at mom's house.
	11:54am Uncle Michael: Thank you, Doug...see you all soon.
	11:54am Doug Schulkind: You are most welcome, TDK60! chresti! hyde! Franco Twinkie! Uncle Michael! And all! You are not, however, moist welcome.
	11:55am Hopey Sockmonkey: ↳ chresti @11:53 Best to you and Franco, chresti!

	11:56am Doug Schulkind: Hoping everyone has a wonderful, warm, fulfilling holiday!!! I love you all!
	11:56am Rich in Washington: Thanks Doug!
	11:57am zzz: thanks DS cheers all
	11:58am Hopey Sockmonkey: I've been listening while comfy in bed, great show Doug.
	11:58am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Irene Trudel @11:55 Thanks thanks thanks, Rich in Washington! zzz! Irene! Comfy Hopey!
	🥁 11:59am PAULS: Noooooo always too soon. Thanks Doug! Happy holidays errybody!
