	10:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: RIP Seymour Stein ...on an unrelated note...
	10:11pm Androu B.: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:08 Greets, Rev ! 🐰💣♏

	10:15pm Aitch: Back again
	10:16pm Julie: hiya Aitch!
	10:16pm Androu B.: ↳ Aitch @10:15 G'day (again) Aitch!
	10:19pm Dean: Bought Carney today for two bucks.
	10:20pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Lights" by "Out Of Darkness" Nice, out of darkness is pretty great
	10:20pm Julie: hiya MHLee!
	10:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: Good evening, Bananaland!
	10:25pm MHLee: Hi Julie, just trying to wind down and get some work done tonight
	10:28pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Trapped In A Game" by "Ruphus" I love it when i find a new prog album
	10:28pm Julie: Hi Ken!
	10:30pm Dean: Where do band names come from? Ruphus?! The classic example is Public Foot the Roman.
	10:34pm MHLee: There are baby sitars which tune like guitars and are all over the 60s. I have one.
	10:34pm Dean: Don't try to get into Leon Russell. Start with the Joe Cocker live album. No, he didnt' write it, because he's dead. Uncle Michael interviewed the author.
	10:37pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "It's The Little Things" by "Sonny & Cher" These are two I need to get deep into.
	10:37pm Julie: ↳ Dean @10:34 I knew he was dead but I thought it might have been posthumous. Guess he's gone too long for that.
	10:38pm Julie: ↳ MHLee @10:37 her 60s solo output is quite good too. But they are for sure more than their couple hits
	10:39pm Androu B.: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:08 A great influence in the music business. If it weren't for the Sire label, I wouldn't have gotten to know Talking Heads and all the great & inspiring alt acts from the UK...Bunnymen, Smiths, DepecheMode...I own the 1st 4 "Just Say..." CD comps, chock full of goodies in those...
	10:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "It's The Little Things" by "Sonny & Cher" Spector protege big time. I wonder if the S&C movie feels worth watching anymore...
	10:40pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:39 I was just thinking about it myself. The Good Times soundtrack was the album my family had so I know it very well. Been a while since I saw the movie.
	10:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Androu B. @10:39 Bunnymen ! ...well - he signed TheRamones. & he's in the docs saying they reminded him of TheBeachBoys. That's enuff for me.
	10:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @10:40 - right. Be a Memory Trip from seeing it on our little B&W TV for one thing ...I'm wondering if it's, say, a snapshot of mid60s L.A. or what have you...
	10:47pm Androu B.: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:41 Oh, can't forget Danielle Dax (often heard on Julie's other show), signed to the label in 1990.
	10:48pm Julie: ↳ Androu B. @10:47 I think he signed Madonna also
	10:50pm Androu B.: ↳ Julie @10:48 Correct. Then she founded her Maverick label in the 90's.
	10:51pm WR: Hi, listening for a few minutes as getting ready for sleep time.
	10:52pm Julie: hiya WR!
	10:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @10:48 ...'Shake Some Action' by Flamin' Groovies ! Deeply imprinted on me ...DMZ ! U.S. distribution of Radio Birdman, Bunnymen & Cure ...so much. Very important Label.
	10:54pm Androu B.: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:52 Cure were originally on Elektra though, weren't they?
	10:55pm asheville jon: Gemini!
	10:57pm Black Cat: Dylan, Prince, Wesley Willis, Chris Elliot and...me! Gemini Power
	10:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Androu B. @10:54 Hm. Apparently. We need a Cure expert ! Could they have been on Electra but in the U.S. by Sire ? What sense would that make...
	10:59pm Julie: Fiction and Sire
	11:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Gemini -- The Madman" by "Eric Burdon & The Animals" Wull I said this about ♊︎Gemini : www.facebook.com... ...my ☽Moon Sign as it happens.
	11:04pm MHLee: This got really doors like
	11:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @10:59 Elektra noted here : en.wikipedia.org...
	11:05pm Julie: definitely not what I think of when I think of Animals
	11:06pm MHLee: Didn't Eric Burden spend sometime in San Fran?
	11:06pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:05 I think maybe they partnered with or distributed for Fiction
	11:07pm Androu B.: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:58 Discogs confirms that Fiction handled distro in the UK and Europe, with Polydor/Polygram handling ditstro in certain other countries...only sign of the WEA label family handling distro I can see is in Australia. But when Cure broke big stateside in 1985-86, Elektra was handling the distro.
	11:07pm Julie: now the DOORS they were on Elektra
	11:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:05 Not even too much like their other Psych stuff ? Wonder how the Membership might have shuffled - or if it stayed like Animals Two once the originals were out...
	11:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:07 - as were MC5 & Stooges ...& Love. & lotsa adventurous Folk. Great label.
	11:09pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:08 yeah I always think the Stooges album cover looks like the first Doors album cover
	11:09pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:07 The organist in the early doors has an interesting solo career. I've played his version of Simon Smith and His Dancing Bear
	11:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Gemini -- The Madman" by "Eric Burdon & The Animals" 'Madman Running Thru the Fields' - done by Dantalion's Chariot - which feature Andy Summers also later in the Animals. Here ?
	11:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:09 Cause it does.
	11:10pm Julie: geez Stein's ex-wife was murdered by her assistant
	11:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:09 Ray Manzarek
	11:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:10 Jayzus.
	11:10pm Androu B.: ↳ Androu B. @11:07 Correction: The Cure's big break was more like 1986-87.
	11:11pm Dean: If I had a nickel for every ex-wife who was murdered by her assistant...
	11:12pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:10 AND she had a brain tumor....good heavens
	11:12pm Dean: I had the sense that The Cure broke big from their first album in the US. That was my experience.
	11:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Whose 'assistant' were they really.
	11:13pm Androu B.: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:10 He was one of my influences when I practiced keyboard playing in my youth. I'd often practice playing "Light My Fire" on synth drawbars.
	11:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:12 The Ex or the Killer ?
	11:14pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:13 the ex!
	11:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Androu B. @11:13 Sure. Well Ray had good influences.
	11:14pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:10 oOPS I meant animals
	11:15pm Julie: I love ray's organ playing
	11:15pm MHLee: Sorry my mind wandered for a moment
	11:15pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Gemini -- The Madman" by "Eric Burdon & The Animals" I loved this track for years before I discovered that "Madman in the Fields" was a previously released song by Dantalion's Chariot. That group's Zoot Money and Andy Summers then joined the New Animals to redo the song in the form of this track. I still don't know the origin of the "Gemini" part of this track though.
	11:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:14 Alan Price ?
	11:15pm Julie: Oh! You mean Alan Price!
	11:15pm MHLee: Yes!
	11:15pm Julie: Yes he's got some great solo stuff, Alan Price Set and the soundtrack for O Lucky Man!
	11:16pm Androu B.: ↳ Dean @11:12 The first big hit they had here was "Why Can't I Be You?" in 1987, fueled by the MV getting constant rotation on MTV.
	11:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Alan Price hanging with Dylan in 'Don't Look Back' is memorable ...cause I remember it...
	11:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @11:15 Yup figures.
	11:18pm bigplanetnoise: Jooolz! Again!!!
	11:18pm Dean: Boys Don't Cry, the repackaged thing, was 1980. They were already making headway by then.
	11:18pm Julie: oh hi David, I didn't see you come in! Thanks for your pledge!
	11:18pm Julie: hiya BPN Bob!
	11:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: We used to wonder why TheCure were so popular when, say, TheCramps less so... I probly like Robert Smith better now for knowing more about him. But I probly always like things when they're less popular...
	11:21pm MHLee: Julie. have you heard the 1967 Del Shannon album? This has a similar vibe
	11:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Shape Of Things To Come" by "Max Frost & the Troo... Still haven't seen this movie !!
	11:22pm Julie: ↳ MHLee @11:21 Oh yes!
	11:22pm MHLee: It's honestly one of my favorite hidden gems
	11:22pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:21 oh you need to!
	11:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:22 Right ?!
	11:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a lot of movies I haven't seen.
	11:24pm MHLee: I need to find Zabriskie Point
	11:25pm David Shortell: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:16 He was reluctant to explain to Dylan what happened between him and the Animals. Eric Burdon's first autobio explains it though. Alan spoke with Eric over the phone after his abrupt departure, and told him he was hanging with Dylan. The next time Eric saw Alan (albeit not in person) was when he watched that documentary.
	11:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Eh - pass - TALL - ick
	11:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:26 ...is what I heard...
	11:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @11:25 Price got the Writer's royalties for 'House of Rising Sun' & they all resented it - is that not it ?
	11:31pm David Shortell: The film "Good Times" came before the film "Chastity", during which Chaz was conceived!
	11:32pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Dusty Shoes" by "Next" Almost a dead on early deep purple song in opening
	11:32pm MHLee: This kicks
	11:32pm Julie: ↳ David Shortell @11:31 that makes more sense. Because how would they even have gotten Chastity made?
	11:34pm Julie: and boy did it take her some time to do real acting again, not till 1982
	11:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:32 Almost thot VanillaFudge one second. Then it got kinda Prawgy.
	11:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "What's Goin On" by "Marvin Gaye" HBD Marvin. Phew. What can one say.
	11:38pm MHLee: Tbh I used to listen to the book of taliesyn on repeat. Always found the early deep purple to be in a prog vein after the first album... I assume it was Jon Lord's influence
	11:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:38 Def some Classical affectations.
	11:39pm Julie: I will never forget Marvin's death. And I just learned that he GAVE his dad the gun because he was getting death threats.
	11:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:39 'He was our JohnLennon.' - JanetJackson
	11:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...so many reasons to just love guns ...his father shoulda failed that Background Check...
	11:42pm Black Cat: ↳ Julie @11:39 I hate guns. I know. Really bold statement.
	11:42pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:39 Jon Lord has a couple of symphonic albums. Sarabade is very good
	11:43pm David Shortell: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:27 All I read about Alan’s departure in “I Used To Be an Animal, But I'm All Right Now” was that Eric made his way to the stage to prepare for a show. He crossed Alan, who was walking in the opposite direction guzzling whiskey from a bottle. The band waited for Alan until somebody reported that he was passed out in the men’s room. They played anyway, and didn’t see him again for quite a while. Dave Rowberry was shortly enlisted to replace him.
	11:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:42 Intersting. & Richie Blackmore kind of presaged a lot of Metal Shredders. Which is not always remembered. Metal & Classical are surprisingly strongly related.
	11:45pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:44 They catch that in spinal tap
	11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @11:43 Well - that's quite a different tale ! Love that book title btw...
	11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:45 'Lick My Love Pump'...
	11:47pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:45 That scene, exactly. The song "The Hunter", done by Kiss and Blue Cheer reminds me of that title
	11:47pm MHLee: Esp the Blue Cheer version where they sing "MY LOVE GUN!"
	11:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:47 Blues precedent of course... BlueCheer - whom I love - setting the early tone of Metal there...
	11:49pm MHLee: Also in this album 𝒜𝓉𝓁𝒶𝓃𝓉𝒾𝓈
	11:50pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:48 It's also notable that metal influencing and punk influencing albums tend to overlap
	11:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: Sign "☮︎" the Times returning to Saugerties this Friday - www.upstatefilms.org...
	11:51pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Yes I Love You" by "Lothar and The Hand People" I recall a recurring skit on Saturday Night Live years ago called "Lothar of the Hill People". What's the connection?
	11:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Funny Ways" by "Gentle Giant" RIP Ray Shulman - whose name I honestly did not know.
	11:52pm Julie: ↳ David Shortell @11:51 I always assumed Myers was a fan and that's why he used the name
	11:53pm MHLee: I forgot Simon Dupree and the Big Sound was the same band
	11:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: In fact GentleGiant is a name I see a whole lot more of than actually hearing them ...a lot of those apparently...
	11:56pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "I Need You To Turn To" by "Elton John" This sounds like a song about Elves... like the Townes Van Zandt one or Gandalf the Gey
	11:56pm MHLee: For some reason this is what 60's songs about elves sound like
	11:56pm MHLee: *Grey
	11:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:56 'Silver Ships of Andilar'
	11:57pm Julie: where EJ is concerned it's more Gandalf the Gay
	11:57pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:56 Exactly. I need to relisten to that album
	11:57pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Shape Of Things To Come" by "Max Frost & the Troo... In the crossover fictional universe of the 1969 chapter of Alan Moore & Kevin O'Neill's "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Century", Max Frost is said to be the US President.
	11:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:57 - as is Ian McKellen after all.
	11:58pm MHLee: ↳ David Shortell @11:57 That's a fun comic.
	11:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @11:57 Kewl.
	11:59pm Aitch: Thanks again Julie!
	11:59pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:59 Worth reading for the references in the 1969 one
	11:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Julie ~
	12:00am Julie: thanks everyone!
	12:00am MHLee: Thanks Julie!
	12:00am Androu B.: Thanks so much, Julie!

	10:55pm asheville jon: Gemini!
	10:57pm Black Cat: Dylan, Prince, Wesley Willis, Chris Elliot and...me! Gemini Power
	10:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Androu B. @10:54 Hm. Apparently. We need a Cure expert ! Could they have been on Electra but in the U.S. by Sire ? What sense would that make...
	10:59pm Julie: Fiction and Sire
	11:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Gemini -- The Madman" by "Eric Burdon & The Animals" Wull I said this about ♊︎Gemini : www.facebook.com... ...my ☽Moon Sign as it happens.
	11:04pm MHLee: This got really doors like
	11:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @10:59 Elektra noted here : en.wikipedia.org...
	11:05pm Julie: definitely not what I think of when I think of Animals
	11:06pm MHLee: Didn't Eric Burden spend sometime in San Fran?
	11:06pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:05 I think maybe they partnered with or distributed for Fiction
	11:07pm Androu B.: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:58 Discogs confirms that Fiction handled distro in the UK and Europe, with Polydor/Polygram handling ditstro in certain other countries...only sign of the WEA label family handling distro I can see is in Australia. But when Cure broke big stateside in 1985-86, Elektra was handling the distro.
	11:07pm Julie: now the DOORS they were on Elektra
	11:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:05 Not even too much like their other Psych stuff ? Wonder how the Membership might have shuffled - or if it stayed like Animals Two once the originals were out...
	11:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:07 - as were MC5 & Stooges ...& Love. & lotsa adventurous Folk. Great label.
	11:09pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:08 yeah I always think the Stooges album cover looks like the first Doors album cover
	11:09pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:07 The organist in the early doors has an interesting solo career. I've played his version of Simon Smith and His Dancing Bear
	11:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Gemini -- The Madman" by "Eric Burdon & The Animals" 'Madman Running Thru the Fields' - done by Dantalion's Chariot - which feature Andy Summers also later in the Animals. Here ?
	11:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:09 Cause it does.
	11:10pm Julie: geez Stein's ex-wife was murdered by her assistant
	11:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:09 Ray Manzarek
	11:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:10 Jayzus.
	11:10pm Androu B.: ↳ Androu B. @11:07 Correction: The Cure's big break was more like 1986-87.
	11:11pm Dean: If I had a nickel for every ex-wife who was murdered by her assistant...
	11:12pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:10 AND she had a brain tumor....good heavens
	11:12pm Dean: I had the sense that The Cure broke big from their first album in the US. That was my experience.
	11:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Whose 'assistant' were they really.
	11:13pm Androu B.: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:10 He was one of my influences when I practiced keyboard playing in my youth. I'd often practice playing "Light My Fire" on synth drawbars.
	11:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:12 The Ex or the Killer ?
	11:14pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:13 the ex!
	11:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Androu B. @11:13 Sure. Well Ray had good influences.
	11:14pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:10 oOPS I meant animals
	11:15pm Julie: I love ray's organ playing
	11:15pm MHLee: Sorry my mind wandered for a moment
	11:15pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Gemini -- The Madman" by "Eric Burdon & The Animals" I loved this track for years before I discovered that "Madman in the Fields" was a previously released song by Dantalion's Chariot. That group's Zoot Money and Andy Summers then joined the New Animals to redo the song in the form of this track. I still don't know the origin of the "Gemini" part of this track though.
	11:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:14 Alan Price ?
	11:15pm Julie: Oh! You mean Alan Price!
	11:15pm MHLee: Yes!
	11:15pm Julie: Yes he's got some great solo stuff, Alan Price Set and the soundtrack for O Lucky Man!
	11:16pm Androu B.: ↳ Dean @11:12 The first big hit they had here was "Why Can't I Be You?" in 1987, fueled by the MV getting constant rotation on MTV.
	11:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Alan Price hanging with Dylan in 'Don't Look Back' is memorable ...cause I remember it...
	11:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @11:15 Yup figures.
	11:18pm bigplanetnoise: Jooolz! Again!!!
	11:18pm Dean: Boys Don't Cry, the repackaged thing, was 1980. They were already making headway by then.
	11:18pm Julie: oh hi David, I didn't see you come in! Thanks for your pledge!
	11:18pm Julie: hiya BPN Bob!
	11:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: We used to wonder why TheCure were so popular when, say, TheCramps less so... I probly like Robert Smith better now for knowing more about him. But I probly always like things when they're less popular...
	11:21pm MHLee: Julie. have you heard the 1967 Del Shannon album? This has a similar vibe
	11:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Shape Of Things To Come" by "Max Frost & the Troo... Still haven't seen this movie !!
	11:22pm Julie: ↳ MHLee @11:21 Oh yes!
	11:22pm MHLee: It's honestly one of my favorite hidden gems
	11:22pm Julie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:21 oh you need to!
	11:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:22 Right ?!
	11:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a lot of movies I haven't seen.
	11:24pm MHLee: I need to find Zabriskie Point
	11:25pm David Shortell: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:16 He was reluctant to explain to Dylan what happened between him and the Animals. Eric Burdon's first autobio explains it though. Alan spoke with Eric over the phone after his abrupt departure, and told him he was hanging with Dylan. The next time Eric saw Alan (albeit not in person) was when he watched that documentary.
	11:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Eh - pass - TALL - ick
	11:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:26 ...is what I heard...
	11:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @11:25 Price got the Writer's royalties for 'House of Rising Sun' & they all resented it - is that not it ?
	11:31pm David Shortell: The film "Good Times" came before the film "Chastity", during which Chaz was conceived!
	11:32pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Dusty Shoes" by "Next" Almost a dead on early deep purple song in opening
	11:32pm MHLee: This kicks
	11:32pm Julie: ↳ David Shortell @11:31 that makes more sense. Because how would they even have gotten Chastity made?
	11:34pm Julie: and boy did it take her some time to do real acting again, not till 1982
	11:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:32 Almost thot VanillaFudge one second. Then it got kinda Prawgy.
	11:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "What's Goin On" by "Marvin Gaye" HBD Marvin. Phew. What can one say.
	11:38pm MHLee: Tbh I used to listen to the book of taliesyn on repeat. Always found the early deep purple to be in a prog vein after the first album... I assume it was Jon Lord's influence
	11:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:38 Def some Classical affectations.
	11:39pm Julie: I will never forget Marvin's death. And I just learned that he GAVE his dad the gun because he was getting death threats.
	11:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:39 'He was our JohnLennon.' - JanetJackson
	11:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...so many reasons to just love guns ...his father shoulda failed that Background Check...
	11:42pm Black Cat: ↳ Julie @11:39 I hate guns. I know. Really bold statement.
	11:42pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:39 Jon Lord has a couple of symphonic albums. Sarabade is very good
	11:43pm David Shortell: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:27 All I read about Alan’s departure in “I Used To Be an Animal, But I'm All Right Now” was that Eric made his way to the stage to prepare for a show. He crossed Alan, who was walking in the opposite direction guzzling whiskey from a bottle. The band waited for Alan until somebody reported that he was passed out in the men’s room. They played anyway, and didn’t see him again for quite a while. Dave Rowberry was shortly enlisted to replace him.
	11:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:42 Intersting. & Richie Blackmore kind of presaged a lot of Metal Shredders. Which is not always remembered. Metal & Classical are surprisingly strongly related.
	11:45pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:44 They catch that in spinal tap
	11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @11:43 Well - that's quite a different tale ! Love that book title btw...
	11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:45 'Lick My Love Pump'...
	11:47pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:45 That scene, exactly. The song "The Hunter", done by Kiss and Blue Cheer reminds me of that title
	11:47pm MHLee: Esp the Blue Cheer version where they sing "MY LOVE GUN!"
	11:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:47 Blues precedent of course... BlueCheer - whom I love - setting the early tone of Metal there...
	11:49pm MHLee: Also in this album 𝒜𝓉𝓁𝒶𝓃𝓉𝒾𝓈
	11:50pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:48 It's also notable that metal influencing and punk influencing albums tend to overlap
	11:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: Sign "☮︎" the Times returning to Saugerties this Friday - www.upstatefilms.org...
	11:51pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Yes I Love You" by "Lothar and The Hand People" I recall a recurring skit on Saturday Night Live years ago called "Lothar of the Hill People". What's the connection?
	11:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Funny Ways" by "Gentle Giant" RIP Ray Shulman - whose name I honestly did not know.
	11:52pm Julie: ↳ David Shortell @11:51 I always assumed Myers was a fan and that's why he used the name
	11:53pm MHLee: I forgot Simon Dupree and the Big Sound was the same band
	11:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: In fact GentleGiant is a name I see a whole lot more of than actually hearing them ...a lot of those apparently...
	11:56pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "I Need You To Turn To" by "Elton John" This sounds like a song about Elves... like the Townes Van Zandt one or Gandalf the Gey
	11:56pm MHLee: For some reason this is what 60's songs about elves sound like
	11:56pm MHLee: *Grey
	11:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ MHLee @11:56 'Silver Ships of Andilar'
	11:57pm Julie: where EJ is concerned it's more Gandalf the Gay
	11:57pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:56 Exactly. I need to relisten to that album
	11:57pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Shape Of Things To Come" by "Max Frost & the Troo... In the crossover fictional universe of the 1969 chapter of Alan Moore & Kevin O'Neill's "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Century", Max Frost is said to be the US President.
	11:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Julie @11:57 - as is Ian McKellen after all.
	11:58pm MHLee: ↳ David Shortell @11:57 That's a fun comic.
	11:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @11:57 Kewl.
	11:59pm Aitch: Thanks again Julie!
	11:59pm MHLee: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:59 Worth reading for the references in the 1969 one
	11:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Julie ~
	12:00am Julie: thanks everyone!
	12:00am MHLee: Thanks Julie!
	12:00am Androu B.: Thanks so much, Julie!
