Listener comments!
	9:56am Jason Isaac: Good morning Rock'n'Soulsters! Let's start the weekend with a stroll down Soul Street. Who's coming with me?
	⚜ 9:59am Frank In Queens: Hey Jason. Glad to finally be able to listen live for a change.
	⚜ 10:00am Irene Trudel: I'm here to join the fun, Jason!
	10:01am Jason Isaac: Alright, welcome y'all!
	10:02am Christina Ginger: Good morning, Jason and krewe!
	⚜ 10:02am Jessie: Hey Jason! Let's get this second line going.
	⚜ 10:03am Dave the Spazz: Let’s fall into this mess!
	10:04am Jason Isaac: Starting to look like a party in here now. Good morning everybody
	⚜ 10:07am Pauly from Clifton: Hiya Jason, folks!
	10:08am Stu Rutherford: Hello Jason & everyone!
	10:10am Jason Isaac: Hiya Pauly and Stu!
	10:21am Jason Isaac: ↳ Song: "Corey Died On The Battlefield" by "The Wild Magno... I forgot to credit the incredible Bo Dollis as lead vocalist with the Wild Magnolias. He was a force of nature!
	10:28am Christina Ginger: ↳ Song: "Something You Got" by "Chris Kenner" Chris Kenner! What a song writing machine.
	⚜ 10:33am Dave the Spazz: ↳ Song: "Fair Play" by "Diamond Joe" Is someone occasionally strumming an autoharp on this?
	10:34am Jason Isaac: ↳ Dave the Spazz @10:33 sure sounds like it
	10:35am Christina Ginger: ↳ Dave the Spazz @10:33 I was wondering the same thing. At first I thought it was open piano strings, but it definitely sounded more chordal than strumming a set of random strings.
	10:36am Jason Isaac: ↳ Song: "Drive It Home" by "Snooks Eaglin" The first night I ever volunteered at WWOZ (during a pledge drive) they had Snooks Eaglin playing live in the studio where I was answering phones. After that there was no turning back.
	10:39am Jason Isaac: ↳ Christina Ginger @10:35 Agreed, it sounded too right to be a bunch of random strumming. Great record!
	⚜ 10:40am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ Song: "Raining In My Life" by "Walter "Wolfman" Washington" RIP Wolfman. It was always a treat to see him play live.
	10:43am Jason Isaac: ↳ Pauly from Clifton @10:40 The tribute set to Walter at Jazzfest this year was something special. Lots of folks sitting in with the Roadmasters. I really dug Irma Thomas and Alex McMurray. Alex sounded EXACTLY like Walter, it was uncanny.
	⚜ 10:43am Dave the Spazz: K-Doe!
	10:43am Jason Isaac: ↳ Dave the Spazz @10:43 our eternal emperor!
	10:46am Matt Clarke: Nice set, Jason!
	10:47am Jason Isaac: Hey Matt! Good to see you in here
	10:49am Nicola: Heya Jason, Digging the tracks! :-)
	10:50am Matt Clarke: That sounds like a fab tribute show. Irma is always on form!
	⚜ 10:51am Frank In Queens: Great one man! Thanks Jason.
	10:51am Jason Isaac: ↳ Nicola @10:49 Woah, hey Nic!
	10:53am Nicola: Not en route to piano or fencing ... Summer is here and I have my Saturday mornings back! :-)
	⚜ 10:53am Irene Trudel: Been listening while cleaning up for the apartment painters' return. Great stuff! This hour is over way too fast!
	10:53am Matt Clarke: Thanks Jason!
	10:55am Jason Isaac: Thanks y'all for stopping by again. Always great to see everybody! More groovy stuff on the way next week, so come on back!
	⚜ 10:57am Pauly from Clifton: Thanks for the fab start to my Saturday, Jason!
	12:53pm brendangen: This is the first time I've stumbled on this show and I can't wait to make it part of my regular WFMU week!
