	3:10pm coelacanth∅: < they look like they'd like to be the kinks
	3:10pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:10 They were called the British Walkers!
	3:13pm coelacanth∅: haha... the british walkers. they had to breaks in their sets if the dogs needed a walk.
	3:14pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:13 I've seen more than one pic of them with the bulldog, so maybe he was part of the show?
	3:14pm Erica: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:13 Hi coel! Speaking of dogs, your dog (profile picture) is cute.
	3:16pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:14 i just peeked at discogs and there's another picture with and one without the bulldog. they were not actually british! (but you probably knew that)
	3:16pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Shake" by "British Walkers" Reminds me of Mitch Ryder and his Detroit Wheels.
	3:17pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:16 Washington DC!
	3:17pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Erica @3:14 hi Erica! Thank you. he's an angel.
	3:18pm coelacanth∅: (...well, he's not an angel yet.)
	3:19pm Erica: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:18 No but Tater Tot, the kitten with special needs passed away today. :(
	3:21pm coelacanth∅: oh i'm so sorry Erica. rest in peace Tater Tot.
	3:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ Erica @3:19 Sorry to hear that Erica, sad (my Ozzie is approaching 15 years of age, old for a pooch. He's hanging in, but it's a bit challenging...)
	3:22pm Erica: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:21 Thank you. He's not my kitten though. He was an internet celebrity kitty.
	3:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ Erica @3:22 ;- )
	3:23pm Funky16Corners: My youngest son was telling me about Tater Tot this morning
	3:25pm coelacanth∅: ↳ doctorjazz @3:22 same with Leroy (or Jethro, or LJ) i think he's 14. a lot of trouble with stairs and steps.
	3:26pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:23 Aww. Tater Tot is now in pet Heaven with Grumpy Cat, Lil Bub, and the original Keyboard Cat now.
	3:27pm dreamyandseedy: can't say i've heard of the genre "alt-jangle" before
	3:27pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Sem @3:05 Hey Sem!
	3:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ dreamyandseedy @3:27 Three letters...REM
	3:30pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Song: "Almost There" by "Turtles" I'm to assume that this track is a non-LP B side...? Of course I'm about to buy it, Larry.
	3:31pm Candy-O'67: Been tuned in Larry. Diggin' the show while working
	3:31pm Funky16Corners: It first appeared on the soundtrack to the movie Out of Sight (great soundtrack and not that expensive). The Turtles later included it on a comp (Wooden Head?)
	3:31pm coelacanth∅: "alt-jangle". didn't catch that. and here i always just called rem "music"! (or "good music")
	3:31pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Candy-O'67 @3:31 Hey Candy-O!
	3:32pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:31 Well, I just made up the category, so it's not really "out there" yet
	3:32pm coelacanth∅: i guess George Harrison invented alt-jangle, but didn't call it that hi Candy!
	3:33pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:32 oh you need to market that!
	3:34pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:33 i have to agree!
	3:35pm Funky16Corners: This guy was so cool that the record company put an phonetic spelling on the record label so DJs wouldn't mispronounce his name
	3:36pm Funky16Corners: "Pronounced LOCK-A-DEE-CEE"
	3:37pm Candy-O'67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:32 Hey coel!
	3:37pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Song: "Hallucinations" by "Baker Knight & The Knightmares" WANT!!!
	3:38pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ Song: "Hallucinations" by "Baker Knight & The Knightmares" very into this band name
	3:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Vincent The Soul Chef @3:37 It took me forever to score a copy of this one
	3:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ dreamyandseedy @3:38 One of the best 45s ever! BIG fave of mine!
	3:40pm Funky16Corners: Everyone put your Trout Mask Replicas on!
	3:40pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:38 I do have a nice comp from Rhino that has the track on the hard drive...
	🥁 3:40pm WR: Larry! It is so great that you had the inclination and time to pursue these tunes. You mention that you did a 'zine. Is any of it online? In your Funky16Corners blog or elsewhere?
	3:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Vincent The Soul Chef @3:40 Hallucinations?
	3:41pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:36 is that irish? or welsh? ...or italian?! i would've guessed ló-gi-dīs...
	3:41pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @3:40 WR - The zines are not currently on line, though I'd like to digitize them some day. I did one called Incognito from 1984-1987 and another called Evil Eye from 1988-1992-ish
	3:42pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:41 right? never woulda guessed lock a dee cee
	🥁 3:42pm WR: ↳ Song: "Diddy Wah Diddy" by "Captain Beefheart & His Magi... Are you playing your 45 or a rip from your 45 because this sounds better and different from what I remember from some comp I have. The bass is much more present.
	3:42pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:41 I think it's Italian. I was just reposting what the printed on the label
	3:42pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @3:42 These are all ripped from my 45s
	3:44pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:40 Yep. That's also the name of the compilation...
	3:44pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:42 right on. the g as a k sound threw me off italian, made me think in gaelic terms
	3:45pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @3:42 As I take vinyl in, I digitize it and bank it in my library. It saves wear and tear on the records and makes playing them on the radio much easier than handling/cueing 45s in real time
	3:47pm Funky16Corners: These guys were apparently Elvis Presley's favorite local band!
	3:55pm Funky16Corners: The one and only garage 45 produced by Allen Toussaint!
	4:02pm Sem: Flashing back hard thanks to this playlist. Enjoying plenty plus!
	4:02pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Sem @4:02 Excellent!
	4:02pm Kitschy Mama: ↳ Song: "Going Back to Miami" by "Unchained Mynds" Love this one!
	4:02pm Jeff Ash: Wayne Cochran tune!
	4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Jeff Ash @4:02 Wisconsin group!
	4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Kitschy Mama @4:02 Hey Mama!
	4:03pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ Song: "Going Back to Miami" by "Unchained Mynds" another great band name
	4:04pm Jeff Ash: The pride of La Crosse, Wisconsin!
	4:07pm coelacanth∅: ↳ dreamyandseedy @4:03 yes!
	4:08pm Kitschy Mama: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:03 Heya Larry
	4:09pm northguineahills: hanna-barbera recs? : yowpyowp.blogspot.com...
	4:11pm Funky16Corners: ↳ northguineahills @4:09 Yup, also released 45s bu the 13th Floor Elevators, Unrelated Segments, Tidal Waves and many more!
	4:12pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet" by "Blues Magoos" Already clicky-starred.
	4:13pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ Song: "We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet" by "Blues Magoos" incredible
	4:13pm Funky16Corners: Here's a discography. Among all those cartoon records there are many, many groovy records. You could tell that they often dealt with regional pluggers, as there are clusters of 45s from Texas, Michigan etc
	4:14pm Funky16Corners: www.discogs.com...
	4:14pm Funky16Corners: D'oh, forgot to paste the link...
	4:18pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Don't Let Me Sleep Too Long" by "Myddle Class" Good Blues Project cover!
	4:19pm Sem: Killin' track!
	4:20pm Funky16Corners: These guys were from right down the block from me, Freehold, NJ, They played gigs with Springsteen's teen band the Castiles
	4:21pm StringOFperils: Hey, Larry. Just contemplating the twin simultaneous inventions of the suburbs and the cheap electric guitar.
	4:23pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:21 I'd love to see musical instrument industry figures for 1964. I imagine guitars were flying off the shelves at an insane rate. Sears had it's own brand, Silvertone (we had a local factory in Neptune, NJ)
	4:24pm StringOFperils: I remember Sears Silvertones being all over the place. At least where the kids could afford them. I used to follow that around.
	4:25pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:24 There was also an influx of weird brands from Japan and to a lesser extent the UK
	4:26pm dreamyandseedy: i see a lot of silvertones in used guitar shops, some beat to hell, some still shiny
	4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ dreamyandseedy @4:26 They were cool looking guitars. Not very well made, but the pickups are sought after by collectors
	4:31pm StringOFperils: Yeah, the history of that stuff is a slice of social history that has always fascinated me. How amplifiers get invented and marketed somehow, and how technology and tastes influence each other, and evolve. This store in Toronto hawks a lot of peculiar pre-loved stringed instruments from second and third tier makers...paulsboutique.ca...
	4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:31 There used to be a rare guitar store near me in Red Bank, NJ back in the 70s and 80s. Always had something cool hanging on the wall.
	4:34pm northguineahills: thanks, Larry, gotta run!
	4:35pm Funky16Corners: ↳ northguineahills @4:34 Bye NGH!
	4:36pm Funky16Corners: Don't forget to hang with Kip at 5PM ET! wfmu.org...
	4:36pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:28 didn't know that about the pickups! i always wondered why the prices seem to vary so wildly from similar looking (and very beat up) silvertones. at least they look similar to my unlearned eyes.
	4:37pm Funky16Corners: ↳ dreamyandseedy @4:36 "Lipstick" pickups! reverb.com...
	4:39pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ StringOFperils @4:31 should really warn us when posting such dangerous links! ;) bookmarking for later...
	4:40pm Funky16Corners: I didn't know that Danelectro was founded in Red Bank in the 50s, making equipment for Sears and Montgomery Ward
	4:40pm StringOFperils: ↳ dreamyandseedy @4:36 Prized more for their original specs than they're ease of use; original single coils are very noisy, and they can also deliver a sound profile that's so bright it hurts like a pencil in the ear....just removed some from a 36 year old Japanese Fender Squire
	4:40pm StringOFperils: *their
	4:42pm Discotech Underground: GARAGE!!!! Hey, Larry!
	4:42pm StringOFperils: But those old lipstick pickups are perfect for playing Surfaris covers
	4:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:42 Hey Kip!
	4:45pm Discotech Underground: I have a Danelectro 12 string electric with those lipstick pickups.
	4:45pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ StringOFperils @4:40 i am beyond down for pencil in the ear brightness! gonna have a look at the pickups next time i see a cheap silvertone. thank you for the info!
	4:46pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Song: "Fever" by "McCoys" TUNE!!!
	4:47pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Fever" by "McCoys" Love this!!! (heard this before Peggy Lee's version). Was the B side of my copy of Hang On Sloopy, played the hell out of both sides!
	4:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Fever" by "McCoys" Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah!
	4:49pm Erica: She's the witch! 🧹
	4:50pm StringOFperils: This guy kills on a Danelectro. I've seen it. He talks about why, here> www.youtube.com...
	4:51pm Andrew in Toronto: What a great show! Thanks Larry!
	4:52pm doctorjazz: More fun than a room full of punks! Thanks, Larry!
	4:53pm Vincent The Soul Chef: You never ever disappoint, sir... many thanks for another great show :)
	4:53pm Erica: The Sonics were an epic way to end the garage rock show. Thanks Larry!
	4:54pm bradford: Thanks Larry, had a blast!
	🥁 4:54pm Brian in UK: Hello Larry & 45 groovers.
	🥁 4:55pm Brian in UK: St Louis Union covered the Beatles song 'Girl'. Minor hit over here.
	4:56pm Erica: The weather has been nicer this week for sure.
	🥁 4:56pm WR: Many thank yous! Larry! Epic Episode!
	4:56pm dreamyandseedy: thanks Larry!
	4:56pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:55 I actually have that one, Brian!
	4:56pm Funky16Corners: Thanks for listening everyone!
	4:57pm StringOFperils: Thanks, Larry!
	5:27pm coelacanth∅: (belated) Thanks Larry!

	3:25pm coelacanth∅: ↳ doctorjazz @3:22 same with Leroy (or Jethro, or LJ) i think he's 14. a lot of trouble with stairs and steps.
	3:26pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:23 Aww. Tater Tot is now in pet Heaven with Grumpy Cat, Lil Bub, and the original Keyboard Cat now.
	3:27pm dreamyandseedy: can't say i've heard of the genre "alt-jangle" before
	3:27pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Sem @3:05 Hey Sem!
	3:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ dreamyandseedy @3:27 Three letters...REM
	3:30pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Song: "Almost There" by "Turtles" I'm to assume that this track is a non-LP B side...? Of course I'm about to buy it, Larry.
	3:31pm Candy-O'67: Been tuned in Larry. Diggin' the show while working
	3:31pm Funky16Corners: It first appeared on the soundtrack to the movie Out of Sight (great soundtrack and not that expensive). The Turtles later included it on a comp (Wooden Head?)
	3:31pm coelacanth∅: "alt-jangle". didn't catch that. and here i always just called rem "music"! (or "good music")
	3:31pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Candy-O'67 @3:31 Hey Candy-O!
	3:32pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:31 Well, I just made up the category, so it's not really "out there" yet
	3:32pm coelacanth∅: i guess George Harrison invented alt-jangle, but didn't call it that hi Candy!
	3:33pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:32 oh you need to market that!
	3:34pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:33 i have to agree!
	3:35pm Funky16Corners: This guy was so cool that the record company put an phonetic spelling on the record label so DJs wouldn't mispronounce his name
	3:36pm Funky16Corners: "Pronounced LOCK-A-DEE-CEE"
	3:37pm Candy-O'67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:32 Hey coel!
	3:37pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Song: "Hallucinations" by "Baker Knight & The Knightmares" WANT!!!
	3:38pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ Song: "Hallucinations" by "Baker Knight & The Knightmares" very into this band name
	3:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Vincent The Soul Chef @3:37 It took me forever to score a copy of this one
	3:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ dreamyandseedy @3:38 One of the best 45s ever! BIG fave of mine!
	3:40pm Funky16Corners: Everyone put your Trout Mask Replicas on!
	3:40pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:38 I do have a nice comp from Rhino that has the track on the hard drive...
	🥁 3:40pm WR: Larry! It is so great that you had the inclination and time to pursue these tunes. You mention that you did a 'zine. Is any of it online? In your Funky16Corners blog or elsewhere?
	3:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Vincent The Soul Chef @3:40 Hallucinations?
	3:41pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:36 is that irish? or welsh? ...or italian?! i would've guessed ló-gi-dīs...
	3:41pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @3:40 WR - The zines are not currently on line, though I'd like to digitize them some day. I did one called Incognito from 1984-1987 and another called Evil Eye from 1988-1992-ish
	3:42pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:41 right? never woulda guessed lock a dee cee
	🥁 3:42pm WR: ↳ Song: "Diddy Wah Diddy" by "Captain Beefheart & His Magi... Are you playing your 45 or a rip from your 45 because this sounds better and different from what I remember from some comp I have. The bass is much more present.
	3:42pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:41 I think it's Italian. I was just reposting what the printed on the label
	3:42pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @3:42 These are all ripped from my 45s
	3:44pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:40 Yep. That's also the name of the compilation...
	3:44pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:42 right on. the g as a k sound threw me off italian, made me think in gaelic terms
	3:45pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @3:42 As I take vinyl in, I digitize it and bank it in my library. It saves wear and tear on the records and makes playing them on the radio much easier than handling/cueing 45s in real time
	3:47pm Funky16Corners: These guys were apparently Elvis Presley's favorite local band!
	3:55pm Funky16Corners: The one and only garage 45 produced by Allen Toussaint!
	4:02pm Sem: Flashing back hard thanks to this playlist. Enjoying plenty plus!
	4:02pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Sem @4:02 Excellent!
	4:02pm Kitschy Mama: ↳ Song: "Going Back to Miami" by "Unchained Mynds" Love this one!
	4:02pm Jeff Ash: Wayne Cochran tune!
	4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Jeff Ash @4:02 Wisconsin group!
	4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Kitschy Mama @4:02 Hey Mama!
	4:03pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ Song: "Going Back to Miami" by "Unchained Mynds" another great band name
	4:04pm Jeff Ash: The pride of La Crosse, Wisconsin!
	4:07pm coelacanth∅: ↳ dreamyandseedy @4:03 yes!
	4:08pm Kitschy Mama: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:03 Heya Larry
	4:09pm northguineahills: hanna-barbera recs? : yowpyowp.blogspot.com...
	4:11pm Funky16Corners: ↳ northguineahills @4:09 Yup, also released 45s bu the 13th Floor Elevators, Unrelated Segments, Tidal Waves and many more!
	4:12pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet" by "Blues Magoos" Already clicky-starred.
	4:13pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ Song: "We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet" by "Blues Magoos" incredible
	4:13pm Funky16Corners: Here's a discography. Among all those cartoon records there are many, many groovy records. You could tell that they often dealt with regional pluggers, as there are clusters of 45s from Texas, Michigan etc
	4:14pm Funky16Corners: www.discogs.com...
	4:14pm Funky16Corners: D'oh, forgot to paste the link...
	4:18pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Don't Let Me Sleep Too Long" by "Myddle Class" Good Blues Project cover!
	4:19pm Sem: Killin' track!
	4:20pm Funky16Corners: These guys were from right down the block from me, Freehold, NJ, They played gigs with Springsteen's teen band the Castiles
	4:21pm StringOFperils: Hey, Larry. Just contemplating the twin simultaneous inventions of the suburbs and the cheap electric guitar.
	4:23pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:21 I'd love to see musical instrument industry figures for 1964. I imagine guitars were flying off the shelves at an insane rate. Sears had it's own brand, Silvertone (we had a local factory in Neptune, NJ)
	4:24pm StringOFperils: I remember Sears Silvertones being all over the place. At least where the kids could afford them. I used to follow that around.
	4:25pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:24 There was also an influx of weird brands from Japan and to a lesser extent the UK
	4:26pm dreamyandseedy: i see a lot of silvertones in used guitar shops, some beat to hell, some still shiny
	4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ dreamyandseedy @4:26 They were cool looking guitars. Not very well made, but the pickups are sought after by collectors
	4:31pm StringOFperils: Yeah, the history of that stuff is a slice of social history that has always fascinated me. How amplifiers get invented and marketed somehow, and how technology and tastes influence each other, and evolve. This store in Toronto hawks a lot of peculiar pre-loved stringed instruments from second and third tier makers...paulsboutique.ca...
	4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:31 There used to be a rare guitar store near me in Red Bank, NJ back in the 70s and 80s. Always had something cool hanging on the wall.
	4:34pm northguineahills: thanks, Larry, gotta run!
	4:35pm Funky16Corners: ↳ northguineahills @4:34 Bye NGH!
	4:36pm Funky16Corners: Don't forget to hang with Kip at 5PM ET! wfmu.org...
	4:36pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:28 didn't know that about the pickups! i always wondered why the prices seem to vary so wildly from similar looking (and very beat up) silvertones. at least they look similar to my unlearned eyes.
	4:37pm Funky16Corners: ↳ dreamyandseedy @4:36 "Lipstick" pickups! reverb.com...
	4:39pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ StringOFperils @4:31 should really warn us when posting such dangerous links! ;) bookmarking for later...
	4:40pm Funky16Corners: I didn't know that Danelectro was founded in Red Bank in the 50s, making equipment for Sears and Montgomery Ward
	4:40pm StringOFperils: ↳ dreamyandseedy @4:36 Prized more for their original specs than they're ease of use; original single coils are very noisy, and they can also deliver a sound profile that's so bright it hurts like a pencil in the ear....just removed some from a 36 year old Japanese Fender Squire
	4:40pm StringOFperils: *their
	4:42pm Discotech Underground: GARAGE!!!! Hey, Larry!
	4:42pm StringOFperils: But those old lipstick pickups are perfect for playing Surfaris covers
	4:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:42 Hey Kip!
	4:45pm Discotech Underground: I have a Danelectro 12 string electric with those lipstick pickups.
	4:45pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ StringOFperils @4:40 i am beyond down for pencil in the ear brightness! gonna have a look at the pickups next time i see a cheap silvertone. thank you for the info!
	4:46pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Song: "Fever" by "McCoys" TUNE!!!
	4:47pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Fever" by "McCoys" Love this!!! (heard this before Peggy Lee's version). Was the B side of my copy of Hang On Sloopy, played the hell out of both sides!
	4:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Fever" by "McCoys" Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah!
	4:49pm Erica: She's the witch! 🧹
	4:50pm StringOFperils: This guy kills on a Danelectro. I've seen it. He talks about why, here> www.youtube.com...
