	11:03am luka: gm ichibans
	11:03am Samba: Have a great start to the weekend!
	11:06am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Good Morning ...careful of the Brown LCD ...I mean it's your own trip but...
	11:07am Bob Barth: ↳ Song: "Can't Explain (Trident Studios version)" by "Davi... Michael - You & I are on the same wavelength. I had this track earmarked as well!
	11:07am P-90: I always thought Bowie’s “Pin Ups” era material has been a bit overshadowed by so many other things he did
	11:08am clarke: hey now heeeeeyyyyy noooowwww just back from sweaty run fun
	11:08am clarke: comin' in HOT, shelley!!!
	11:08am KWilde: Good morning!
	11:09am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:08 He's ripe-n-ready, folks!
	11:10am clarke: ↳ P-90 @11:07 at the time, i loved Pin-Ups. it taught me a lot about records i couldn't seem to find. but, in later years it is the least fave of the mid-period years - but, i certainly still like it.
	11:11am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:09 dangerous shelley.
	11:12am Squints: ↳ Song: "Looking For A Fox" by "Clarence Carter" G. G. Y.
	11:12am clarke: g g S1
	11:12am clarke: sq
	11:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ P-90 @11:07 Someone complained he was slacking doing Covers - but Bowie did two Albums that year... Always thot 'PinUps' had great selections, arrangements & performances. Myself being born Nov.1963 ('Generation Jones') - always appreciated the Retrospective view of the 1960s. Yerknow... I was awlready outta step that way in the 1970s. Punk arriving soon...
	11:13am clarke: u know!
	11:13am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:12 i complain because he chose the wrong drummer - something he readily admitted later. why get rid of the greatest drummer, anyway?
	11:21am goes211: That’s obviously the sound of someone who ate too much hot sauce.
	11:21am clarke: too much hot sauce? how can it be?
	11:21am Hughie Considine: Covers LPs weren't exactly hot sellers in those days; I'm thinking of Ferry's solo LPs, Moondog Matinee and Lennon's Rock n Roll.
	11:22am drr: I went to a thing called Gretna Fest down here (in the town of Gretna, LA), and saw Blue Öyster Cult in a hot, hot parking lot, fantastic; then got into some shade and saw Clarence Carter. It was like some heavenly Bill Graham or the like said "what double bill would be most likely to get drr out of the house and across the Mississippi?"
	11:23am clarke: ↳ Song: "Why I'm Walking" by "Dave Alvin And Jimmie Dale G... saw this existed - must seek!!
	11:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @11:13 In the broader view - The Spiders were just a bitchen RawkBand. & MickRonson was simply Musical & fabulous in every way. & I guess I'm a but Rawkist - & wish Boowie had stayed there longer & all. Boowie the habitual changeling I guess... But Aynsley Dunbar is a bad thing ? Really ? ...I wouldn't have thot of it - but maybe Woodmansey woulda been better & you're right. For one thing - who knew from ThePrettyThings in 1973 ?? I didn't get a hold of their Greatest Hits until years after that. A decade maybe !...
	11:23am Moammar: ↳ Song: "Why I'm Walking" by "Dave Alvin And Jimmie Dale G... Original by Stonewall Jackson? Sounds written for Jimmie Dale.
	11:24am Hughie Considine: ↳ drr @11:22 I love it when that happens.
	11:24am clarke: gretna fest - sweat'na fest!
	11:25am drr: ↳ clarke @11:24 I have a Gretna Fest backstage pass to Huey Lewis and The News around here somewhere....that show made me a believer.
	11:25am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:23 you've seen dunbar on that Midnight Special, er, special right? just kind of a fish out of water with that band. imho
	11:25am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:21 I know, rite? Guh?
	11:25am clarke: ↳ drr @11:25 Sports!!
	11:26am JohnEBGood: Hey Michael, I heard some Wing Ding Doodle in the lyrics. Cool 😎
	11:26am Moammar: ↳ Song: "Say Hey (The Willie Mays Song)" by "Willie Mays o... This brings a tear. Quincy Jones production.
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @11:25 Ah. No accounting for Chemistry. Even Great Players are not always in the right place...
	11:27am clarke: ↳ Song: "Say Hey (The Willie Mays Song)" by "Willie Mays o... RIP - The REAL Greatest Of All Time
	11:27am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:26 i have liked aynsley with other outfits
	11:28am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Say Hey (The Willie Mays Song)" by "Willie Mays o... “Willie Mays is the closest to being perfect I've ever seen." -- Joe DiMaggio
	11:28am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:26 apparently, also, dunbar was a more squeaky wheel than woody!
	11:29am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:27 He was great on that first Nils Lofgren solo record.
	11:29am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:29 which the Grin album???
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @11:25 ...there's that film of Beck guesting with Boowie & the Spiders Live. I think of Ronson as in the JeffBeck acolyte column. & expected Beck to eclipse him frankly. That's not really what happened... Beck later said - he felt self-conscious - they were all Glammed up & he looked drab in his mind !...
	11:30am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:29 Nope. The 1975 solo debut with "Back It Up" and "Keith Don't Go."
	11:30am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:29 Although I love those Grin records also.
	11:30am Cheryl The Nerd: I wanted to go to the CD sale today, but there was no way I was going to do the trek in this heat.
	11:30am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:29 well, to me, beck had already lost it, by then. but, that's just me. i always thought Earl Slick pulled the best of early beck, tho!
	11:31am clarke: he just parks the van - A to B.
	11:31am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:30 oh yeah! THAT record! it's a winnah.
	11:32am McGroovey: I really wish I could go to the CD+record sale today. I have to go to my daughter's high school graduation party instead, unfortunately. I mean, strike the "unfortunately". And I probably have enough CDs.
	11:32am clarke: ↳ McGroovey @11:32 ha ha ha ha. we won't tell.
	11:33am P-90: I had a feeling that if I brought up Pin Ups on the board, it might stimulate some conversation…
	11:33am Squints: ↳ McGroovey @11:32 "I probably have enough CDs." You HUSH your mouth. 8^) Might as well close the patent office.
	11:34am clarke: isn't it The LiquidatorS??
	11:35am clarke: the novel it comes from is titled The Liquidators
	11:35am Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @11:34 dont think so...
	11:36am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:35 k
	11:36am gf2002: ↳ Song: "The Liquidator" by "Dick Hyman" Hey, it's Ben Vaughn's "Many Moods" theme song!
	11:36am Squints: Liquidatahs, theah.
	11:36am Mr. Jones: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:23 Dunbar is the drummer on Pin-Ups? If I knew that, I'd forgotten.
	11:36am TimG: Jeeze, I thought I tuned in The Many Moods of Ben Vaughn…. Hah
	11:36am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:35 there's some pretty cool mod stuff in that flick - haven't seen it in 30 years, tho.
	11:37am Jay: Dick Hyman was a great jazz pianist. But one of my faves was his moog synth album. In high school, we'd play the 33rpm album at 45rpm! :o
	11:38am clarke: no
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'Happy Organ' is a recored by Dave Baby Cortez ...& not Dick Hyman ...you can't have everything...
	11:39am Baby: Dick Hyman?
	11:39am Squints: My WAG would be Townsend just because that's right in his wheelhouse.
	11:39am clarke: alright - i'll guess Albert Hammond, Jr
	11:39am drr: sounded like The Hives.
	11:39am Squints: ↳ Squints @11:39 Greg not Pete. Hence no "h."
	11:40am clarke: ↳ Baby @11:39 is that supposed to be some kinda joke?!?
	11:40am berbo: Is Dick Hyman related to Jeff "Joey" Hyman?
	11:40am clarke: baby..... Baby... BABY!!!!!
	11:41am Baby: Oh. Peter Gabriel?
	11:41am gf2002: I thought Albert Hammond Jr. too! He has a solo track called "101" from 2007 which is an all-time fave and a total #1 hit record. Great song.
	11:41am clarke: ↳ Baby @11:41 where the hell are you galivantin'??
	11:43am clarke: hopefully no stroke involved.
	11:43am Cooh John: That sounds flat for the Ramones.
	11:43am Baby: The OC Clarke
	11:43am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Gonna Need Someone" by "Ringo Starr" Hang on, you said he was in a big band previously.
	11:43am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Gonna Need Someone" by "Ringo Starr" This pretty much rocks.
	11:43am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Song: "Gonna Need Someone" by "Ringo Starr" I'll be seeing him 9/25 at RCMH!!
	11:43am clarke: ↳ Baby @11:43 kule, doooode!!
	11:43am clarke: so nice he played it twice - it really is good, tho
	11:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Gonna Need Someone" by "Ringo Starr" ...don't mess with Apple lawyers ...TheBeatles got a Lust For Rights...
	11:44am clarke: like the vocal effect, too!
	11:44am Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:43 A BIG band. Not a big BAND.
	11:44am Mr. Jones: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:44 HA!
	11:45am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:44 shit man, we forgot to celeb about the C's!!! niiiice, huh???
	11:46am Hughie Considine: Who remembers the F-Troop episode starring Henry Gibson as Wrongo Starr?
	11:46am Officer Pupp: Go Ringo!!
	11:46am Baby: Does anyone else think he was handed this track lock stock and barrel? Here Ringo, sing this.
	11:46am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:45 *I* dinna forget. Although Friday's my WFH day and I had a long pub crawl on Thursday so I wasn't up in town for it. Happy bor the ballclub and especially for Horford.
	11:46am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:46 need to re-visit! any idea how?
	11:47am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yerknow - Ringo was on Mike Douglas or something in the day ...talkin' about how he liked TheCramps. He's just forever adorable...
	11:47am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Gonna Need Someone" by "Ringo Starr" Speaking of Bowie...Was Iggy's "Lust For Life" the first song to use that guitar/drum rhythm? I can't think of an earlier one, but if a groove can be copywritten....
	11:47am Dennis: Chris Price, who produced Emmit Rhodes’s comeback, is all over that new Ringo EP.
	11:47am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:46 YES!!! (is it definite that horford is retiring?? i think he has another year)
	11:48am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:46 Unfortunately Hulu charges for each episode. We watched the Wrongo episode not long ago.
	11:48am McGroovey: ↳ gf2002 @11:47 It's kind of a rockabilly rhythm, with a growl.
	11:48am paul: I think the Ringo release is an EP.
	11:49am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:48 well, if hulu has it, maybe someone will stream it soon.
	11:49am Crei6hton: Sup WFMU
	11:49am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:47 He's probably comes back next year when it will become apparent that, like Walton, this should have been the year. But a stand up guy. He is not South Beach. He is not Hollywood He is Causeway Street. HE IS A CELTIC.
	11:50am clarke: ↳ Song: "Shades of Blue" by "Shandels, The" i believe Frank is of the Levittown persuasion. where is that guy??
	11:50am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Michael & all!
	11:50am Squints: ↳ Song: "Shades of Blue" by "Shandels, The" So wanted this to be Utopia's "One World."
	11:50am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:49 There are some full episodes on youtube.
	11:51am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:50 i need to watch in order. the storch plot line is important.
	11:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ gf2002 @11:47 ...good question...
	11:52am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:50 with the hand claps?
	11:52am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:51 A purist!
	11:52am Michael Shelley: ↳ Baby @11:46 good question
	11:52am gf2002: ↳ McGroovey @11:48 I went to wikipedia, that cites Motown's "You Can't Hurry Love", "I'm Ready For Love", and an AFN call signal as the origin of that beat. Hmmm. But it's the way the guitars and drums lock in on Iggy's track that got reused so often and obviously Ringo liked it too!
	11:52am Squints: Yep. And the intro.
	11:52am Michael Shelley: BABY - where ya at?
	11:52am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:52 never a purist. just thorough.
	11:53am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:52 he's cruisin' chicks in Orange County!
	11:54am bobobob plasticland: Dylan did Lil Queenie and My babe ..here in Georgia last night .Jim Keltner on Drums
	11:54am clarke: gonna need someone. still waiting.. still waiting...
	11:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ gf2002 @11:52 It's almost BoDiddley...
	11:55am Moammar: ↳ Song: "She's Lookin' Good" by "Rodger Collins" Eternally cool.
	11:55am Moammar: ↳ Moammar @11:55 "Call me Mr. Clean." Too much.
	11:57am clarke: ↳ Song: "I Want You Bad" by "NRBQ" The Voice.
	11:57am myron feld: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:50 Quite possibly the greatest show ever. Leave us not forget the episode in which Agarn manages rock group The Bedbugs (as portrayed by Lowell George and The Factory)
	11:59am Mr. Jones: ↳ myron feld @11:57 I think they got the gig because the Beau Brummelstones were busy over on the Flintstone set.
	11:59am Hughie Considine: ↳ myron feld @11:57 I have to go back and see that one. Only a vague memory. Storch was just comedy gold. "Who says I'm dumb???"
	11:59am Steve Del Sol: I saw the National Rhythm & Blues Quartet years ago. Boy, they are great!!
	11:59am Squints: ↳ Song: "I Want You Bad" by "NRBQ" This never doesn't make me happy.
	11:59am clarke: mister vanderbocki, if you would just hear me out....
	12:00pm McGroovey: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:54 That too. Yeah, Iggy didn't invent it, but he sure injected it into guitar-rock.
	12:00pm clarke: THE Bass Player!
	12:01pm P-90: Rex saunters from time to time
	12:01pm drr: ↳ Squints @11:49 Hey, I guess I'm Causeway Street; I lived there (believe it or not) in the late 80s. But I have never been to a Celtics game.
	12:01pm Dennis: Thant Dick Hyman LP is GREAT!!
	12:01pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:01 The Causey Way???
	12:02pm Baby: Water incident. My new band!
	12:03pm Squints: #$%%!! Baby Ruths.
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ Baby @12:02 yer goin' places. heh heh
	12:04pm P-90: There’s lots of good surf in the Hamptons. And a lot of local surfers.
	12:04pm Baby: Funny Squints!
	12:04pm Mr. Jones: ↳ Song: "The Hamptons" by "Bruce Johnston" Ditch Plains, baby!
	12:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...FMU 's a lonely town ...when yer the only NewHampshuh boy around...
	12:05pm KWilde: People were less concerned back in the day. We used to drink out of the garden hose and run behind the trucks that sprayed for mosquitoes
	12:05pm Baby: U too Clarke
	12:05pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "The Hamptons" by "Bruce Johnston" Any song that mentions TV dinner is ok by me.
	12:06pm clarke: ↳ Baby @12:05 to the toppermost!
	12:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...put it in yer Tang ...miracles of Modern Science...
	12:08pm gf2002: Sounds like Bruce and Terry borrowed the groove from Bobby Rydell's "Wildwood Days", which also came out in '63...or was it the other way around?
	12:08pm clarke: ↳ Song: "I'm Not Broke, I'm Badly Bent" by "Lattie Moore" jiminy christmas!!
	12:09pm Moammar: Always a little sad to hear Steve Cropper bragging on the Blues Brothers.
	12:10pm Dennis: I’m willing to bet that Bruce never ate a TV dinner, EVER.
	12:12pm clarke: is it time to talk about the gabba gootch??
	12:12pm Squints: ↳ gf2002 @12:08 "Wildwood Days" is a great, great record.
	12:12pm gf2002: ↳ Dennis @12:10 Not even the Swansons Salisbury Steak?
	12:13pm P-90: I’m in Easy Listening Heaven
	12:13pm Baby: Boy. Jumped right out, this one.
	12:15pm gf2002: ↳ Squints @12:12 Yes! It makes me miss the "oldies" radio format I grew up with when they actually spun those records. The oldies stations now play Goo Goo Dolls and Boyz 2 Men
	12:15pm clarke: my mike sounds good....
	12:15pm Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Song: "Giggle Mug" by "Greg Townson" YAY!!
	12:16pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Moammar @12:09 yup

	12:16pm clarke: and, by the cat, i mean this cat Townson
	12:18pm clarke: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" the jubilee!!
	12:19pm clarke: ever get the feelin' you been cheated?
	12:19pm McGroovey: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @12:15 I was alphabetizing the CDs I've acquired in the past year, in preparation for filing them in the main stacks, and I can't afford tell Greg Townson CDs, two of which I hadn't opened. Last time I was in Rochester, I saw a 7" but didn't buy it. Is this that?
	12:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" ...good sound ...90s band ??...
	12:20pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" This b/w "Did You No Wrong" tied with "I Get Around/Don't Worry Baby" as Greatest Single Ever
	12:20pm Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ McGroovey @12:19 Greg just released a new album a couple of weeks ago called "Paint The Town". This track is on it.
	12:20pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:19 1890's
	12:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" Creating an Alternative National Anthem ...them & who else ? Guthrie, Dylan, Beatles, Hendrix ? Maybe ?...
	12:21pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" <clutching pearls>
	12:21pm Hughie Considine: ↳ myron feld @12:20 Who gets the bronze?
	12:21pm steveo: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" How old was I when I realized that this is bubblegum pop?
	12:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:21 ...Neil Diamond ?...
	12:21pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" Ah, yes. I haven't heard this one in a few years.
	12:21pm bd: when I was 16 and our band played God Save the Queen we had no way of knowing what the real lyrics were. I still sing “when theres no mercy on the dog’s head”. is that the real words? still dont knlw.
	12:21pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:21 That Cobain fella
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:21 greg townson should have a song called Meat'N'Three. ??
	12:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:21 ...Oh ! ...Nevermind...
	12:22pm gf2002: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:21 Noel Gallagher, "Don't Look Back In Anger"
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @12:21 rattle yer jewelry.
	12:22pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:22 I'd make a meal out of that.
	12:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ bd @12:21 ...<3 dawgy...
	12:24pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" Question: Is anyone now obligated to change this to "God Save The King," even if all the other lyrics stay the same?
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:22 speaking of meal: anyone in the nola area - "we" are meeting at The Rink after the shelley show for some sammiches.
	12:24pm Moammar: ↳ Song: "Let's Dance" by "Rivieras, The" Finally, a song that demonstrates the expressive range of the Rivieras.
	12:25pm clarke: ↳ Dan S @12:24 the original was God Save The King
	12:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dan S @12:24 ...well - when there's no future - how can there be sin...
	12:25pm McGroovey: Another Rochester instrumental band: the Riviera Playboys
	12:26pm Dan S: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:25 That's a point.
	12:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...only the Names have been changed. To protect the Guilty...
	12:26pm P-90: I remember when you could take a drive cross country with four dollars in you pocket and just wing it
	12:26pm gf2002: "Sock it to ME?" - Richard Nixon
	12:27pm Squints: It means that want a nice Hawaiian Punch.
	12:28pm Squints: They, not that. Yeesh.
	12:28pm clarke: you won't have nat stuckey to kick around anymore.
	12:28pm Michael Shelley: ↳ steveo @12:21 YES!
	12:30pm Dan S: ↳ clarke @12:28 "Just think of what you're going to be missing." (Nixon)
	12:30pm clarke: "dad, can we stop at Stuckey's?!? .. please.. please... you passed the exit!!"
	12:30pm Hughie Considine: The agent I worked for at ICM in the early 90s represented Judy Carne, the original sock it to me girl. No one wanted her tell-all.
	12:30pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:30 i do!
	12:31pm Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @12:30 two words: Pecan Log
	12:31pm Hubig Pie: ↳ clarke @12:30 Free nut roll with fill-up.

	12:31pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:25 (in addition to Greg T's Hi-Risers, I mean. And there's is or was another one, Duke Galaxy and the Pipeliners)

	12:31pm gf2002: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:30 Did Burt Reynolds have that much clout in the bizness at that time?
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:31 on my way up!
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Baby, Please Don't Go" by "Buddy Ace" just a suggestion: please don't come down to noo orleens at this time of the year.
	12:32pm tonyb: Was Judy Carne married to Burt Reynolds? Might be a short story there.
	12:33pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Sufferin' Creature" by "Faith Healer" totally, duuude!!
	12:33pm morphe': ↳ Song: "Sock It To Me Country Style" by "Nat Stuckey" Made me think of "BACK SIDE of Dallas" Jeannie C. Riley not a request ... just a feeling with One "L" ...
	12:33pm P-90: Judy also one of Burt Reynolds’s spouses .
	12:33pm myron feld: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:21 Bronze goes to The Sloppy Joes with "The Girl With The Light In Her Eyes" b/w "Keep On Truckin'"
	12:34pm clarke: mmmm.... sloppy joes
	12:36pm P-90: Judy was also an English bird, in an era when everyone was mad for English imports. She was sort of the female Davy Jones.
	12:36pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "You're So Good For Me" by "Twice As Much" I can hear the sweaters
	12:36pm Montmaster J: ↳ myron feld @12:33 100%
	12:37pm morphe': ↳ clarke @12:34 Not been back in a long time ... discovered that some of the best NO PooorBoys come out of wee local delis = some have a special only one type each day so ya go to a place for that one on that day ...
	12:37pm Joey!: Immediate release....a great duo, with a track or two produced by Marriott/Lane!
	12:38pm Hughie Considine: ↳ myron feld @12:33 Somehow I imagined that question would lead to something interesting. Looking forward to this one, which is new to me. Thanks!
	12:39pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Direct Sun Light" by "Gary Owens" I know this is unintentional but Gary Owens was the MC on Laugh-In. Not this one. We need one more for the trifecta. Michael, you don't happen to have any Joanne Worley, do you?
	12:41pm drr: Hey, gonna drop a movie here while it's fresh in my mind: Ordinary People (USA, 1980, dir. Robert Redford). I think it won Best Picture, which is ironic since it is very good. Watched b/c of Domald Sutherland (great role as a sensitive but passive tax attorney), but the other principals (Mary Tyler Moore, Timothy Hutton, and Judd Hirsch) are excellent, Elizabeth McGovern wonderful (not much screen time but what there is is great), and Emmet Walsh as a swim coach lights up the screen in the way only he can. It's melodramatic, I guess, but if it is I would watch more movies like it. Afraid this means I'll have to revisit On Golden Pond.
	12:42pm Dan S: Is anyone planning to go to the CD sale today? I was thinking of it but I think it's too damn hot to schlep from Queens to Jersey City.
	12:42pm gf2002: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:39 Or: "Very Interesting" - Arte Johnson and Ruth Buzzi
	12:42pm clarke: people get fooled by looking at the TEMPERATURE in new orleans. you need to look at the dew point and the humidity.
	12:43pm Moammar: ↳ Song: "Look-ka Py Py" by "Meters, The" Zigaboo, my man.
	12:43pm clarke: for instance, it is "only" 88 here, right now. but, just go outside and SEE! i got a fever of a hundred and three!
	12:44pm Dan S: ↳ clarke @12:42 Some people say it's not the heat, it's the humidity. I say: It's Both!
	12:44pm Moammar: ↳ Moammar @12:43 Words to live by: oogity oo. oogity ah.
	12:44pm clarke: ↳ clarke @12:43 the only cure if more cowbell!
	12:44pm Hubig Pie: ↳ gf2002 @12:42 Don't forget your Alan Sues
	12:45pm Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dan S @12:42 Nope. Couldn't do it.
	12:46pm Dan S: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @12:45 OK. That gives you more time to listen to all the CDs you got at the last sale. :) Or are you all caught up?
	12:46pm steveo: Loving the Saturday afternoon vibe
	12:46pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:43 I hear 88 and I'm thinking it sounds like a good day to cut the grass and break out the weedeater.
	12:47pm Eli: The radio signal is having a heat stroke right now.
	12:47pm Dan S: ↳ steveo @12:46 Me too.
	12:48pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:46 it actually is - because the humility is down, today! you don't need to cut the grass, you need to git yer ass to The Rink!!
	12:49pm Squints: ↳ Song: "I Know a Secret" by "Mosquitos, The" Which one's Irving?
	12:49pm clarke: the particular sandwich in quest of, today, would be Crunchy Turkey - which is kinda like a monte christo, but with Zapps potato chips IN the sandwich!! it's a winnah.
	12:50pm Handy Haversack: Back for the end! The mosquitoes are general over Brooklyn.
	12:50pm McGroovey: ↳ Dan S @12:46 Yeah, I haven't listened to so the ones I got at the last sale, and I know Cheryl TN got 10x as many as I got
	12:50pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:41 Dave: Ordinary People is one of the only movies that made me cry in the theater.
	12:51pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "I Know a Secret" by "Mosquitos, The" "Ok boys, end on one of those pretty chords, let's go..." - Murry Wilson if he produced the Mosquitos
	12:52pm clarke: ↳ Song: "It's My Feeling" by "Del Shannon" a del i haven't heard - til now.
	12:52pm common: ↳ clarke @12:50 just started watching that last eve. i also cried. in my apt
	12:52pm clarke: ↳ common @12:52 timothy hutton - vastly underrated as an actor.
	12:53pm berbo: Very powerful. Donald McNichol Sutherland RIP
	12:53pm common: ↳ clarke @12:52 totally agree. everyone is great in that film
	12:54pm clarke: ↳ berbo @12:53 that too! DS is really great in that too. understated.
	12:54pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:50 You know a weird thing about it? There's no popular music in it. Even when the kids talk about music it's classical. Though: did the ubiquity of Pachelbel's Canon coincide with that movie's release?
	12:54pm clarke: and let's just say: of course, mary tyler moore is insanely effective.
	12:55pm common: ↳ drr @12:54 my father told me he thought so
	12:55pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:54 i'm pretty sure Platoon caused that resurge??
	12:55pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Ugly Man's Blues" by "Swamp Dogg" LOL. Some potential pick-up lines in this song. I could have used them back in the day. Well, it's too late now.
	12:55pm P-90: Can’t mention the fine performances in Ordinary People without including Dinah Manoff!
	12:55pm G: ↳ clarke @12:54 I think we said lunch 1:15, right after Shelley? I guess that’s 12:15 NOLA time? So I’ll leave a little after the top of the hour?
	12:55pm gf2002: Ordinary People is now on my watch list. I'd also recommend "Klute" which I thought was great. And I have to rewatch MASH too because Sutherland steals the movie IMO (along with Bobby Troup). And Sutherland was also good in the Invasion Of The Body Snatchers 70's remake
	12:55pm clarke: ↳ P-90 @12:55 oh yeah, AND judd hirsch too
	12:56pm Dan S: ↳ McGroovey @12:50 Catch-up time in this heat wave.
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ G @12:55 cool, man. i'll be biking over around then. starving!
	12:56pm P-90: One of Judd Hirsch’s best parts
	12:56pm Dan S: Thanks for the show, Michael!
	12:56pm G: ↳ clarke @12:56 See you then…
	12:57pm Hubig Pie: RR directorial debut for Ordinary Peoples. Won the Oscar.
	12:57pm drr: ↳ P-90 @12:55 Agreed. Just one scene but it does a lot.
	12:57pm McGroovey: Is it over already? That's so unfaaairruh!
	12:57pm clarke: yeah that too hp
	12:57pm Montmaster J: ↳ gf2002 @12:55 He's also really great in Eye of the Needle. Great actor.
	12:57pm clarke: oh man, this interview - WHEW!!
	12:58pm Moammar: ↳ Song: a song What an ass.
	12:58pm drr: ↳ P-90 @12:56 Good Will Hunting borrows a lot from the Hirsch/Hutton scenes. That won Best Pic too, I think.
	12:58pm morphe': Thanks Mikey and Chex and Life and all !!!!
	12:58pm clarke: do you like the austraiian press??
	12:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ MS ~

Always thot 'PinUps' had great selections, arrangements & performances. Myself being born Nov.1963 ('Generation Jones') - always appreciated the Retrospective view of the 1960s. Yerknow... I was awlready outta step that way in the 1970s. Punk arriving soon...
	11:13am clarke: u know!
	11:13am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:12 i complain because he chose the wrong drummer - something he readily admitted later. why get rid of the greatest drummer, anyway?
	11:21am goes211: That’s obviously the sound of someone who ate too much hot sauce.
	11:21am clarke: too much hot sauce? how can it be?
	11:21am Hughie Considine: Covers LPs weren't exactly hot sellers in those days; I'm thinking of Ferry's solo LPs, Moondog Matinee and Lennon's Rock n Roll.
	11:22am drr: I went to a thing called Gretna Fest down here (in the town of Gretna, LA), and saw Blue Öyster Cult in a hot, hot parking lot, fantastic; then got into some shade and saw Clarence Carter. It was like some heavenly Bill Graham or the like said "what double bill would be most likely to get drr out of the house and across the Mississippi?"
	11:23am clarke: ↳ Song: "Why I'm Walking" by "Dave Alvin And Jimmie Dale G... saw this existed - must seek!!
	11:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @11:13 In the broader view - The Spiders were just a bitchen RawkBand. & MickRonson was simply Musical & fabulous in every way. & I guess I'm a but Rawkist - & wish Boowie had stayed there longer & all. Boowie the habitual changeling I guess... But Aynsley Dunbar is a bad thing ? Really ? ...I wouldn't have thot of it - but maybe Woodmansey woulda been better & you're right. For one thing - who knew from ThePrettyThings in 1973 ?? I didn't get a hold of their Greatest Hits until years after that. A decade maybe !...
	11:23am Moammar: ↳ Song: "Why I'm Walking" by "Dave Alvin And Jimmie Dale G... Original by Stonewall Jackson? Sounds written for Jimmie Dale.
	11:24am Hughie Considine: ↳ drr @11:22 I love it when that happens.
	11:24am clarke: gretna fest - sweat'na fest!
	11:25am drr: ↳ clarke @11:24 I have a Gretna Fest backstage pass to Huey Lewis and The News around here somewhere....that show made me a believer.
	11:25am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:23 you've seen dunbar on that Midnight Special, er, special right? just kind of a fish out of water with that band. imho
	11:25am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:21 I know, rite? Guh?
	11:25am clarke: ↳ drr @11:25 Sports!!
	11:26am JohnEBGood: Hey Michael, I heard some Wing Ding Doodle in the lyrics. Cool 😎
	11:26am Moammar: ↳ Song: "Say Hey (The Willie Mays Song)" by "Willie Mays o... This brings a tear. Quincy Jones production.
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @11:25 Ah. No accounting for Chemistry. Even Great Players are not always in the right place...
	11:27am clarke: ↳ Song: "Say Hey (The Willie Mays Song)" by "Willie Mays o... RIP - The REAL Greatest Of All Time
	11:27am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:26 i have liked aynsley with other outfits

	11:28am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:26 apparently, also, dunbar was a more squeaky wheel than woody!
	11:29am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:27 He was great on that first Nils Lofgren solo record.
	11:29am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:29 which the Grin album???
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ clarke @11:25 ...there's that film of Beck guesting with Boowie & the Spiders Live. I think of Ronson as in the JeffBeck acolyte column. & expected Beck to eclipse him frankly. That's not really what happened... Beck later said - he felt self-conscious - they were all Glammed up & he looked drab in his mind !...
	11:30am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:29 Nope. The 1975 solo debut with "Back It Up" and "Keith Don't Go."
	11:30am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:29 Although I love those Grin records also.
	11:30am Cheryl The Nerd: I wanted to go to the CD sale today, but there was no way I was going to do the trek in this heat.
	11:30am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:29 well, to me, beck had already lost it, by then. but, that's just me. i always thought Earl Slick pulled the best of early beck, tho!
	11:31am clarke: he just parks the van - A to B.
	11:31am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:30 oh yeah! THAT record! it's a winnah.
	11:32am McGroovey: I really wish I could go to the CD+record sale today. I have to go to my daughter's high school graduation party instead, unfortunately. I mean, strike the "unfortunately". And I probably have enough CDs.
	11:32am clarke: ↳ McGroovey @11:32 ha ha ha ha. we won't tell.
	11:33am P-90: I had a feeling that if I brought up Pin Ups on the board, it might stimulate some conversation…
	11:33am Squints: ↳ McGroovey @11:32 "I probably have enough CDs." You HUSH your mouth. 8^) Might as well close the patent office.
	11:34am clarke: isn't it The LiquidatorS??
	11:35am clarke: the novel it comes from is titled The Liquidators
	11:35am Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @11:34 dont think so...

	11:36am Squints: Liquidatahs, theah.
	11:36am Mr. Jones: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:23 Dunbar is the drummer on Pin-Ups? If I knew that, I'd forgotten.
	11:36am TimG: Jeeze, I thought I tuned in The Many Moods of Ben Vaughn…. Hah
	11:36am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:35 there's some pretty cool mod stuff in that flick - haven't seen it in 30 years, tho.
	11:37am Jay: Dick Hyman was a great jazz pianist. But one of my faves was his moog synth album. In high school, we'd play the 33rpm album at 45rpm! :o
	11:38am clarke: no
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'Happy Organ' is a recored by Dave Baby Cortez ...& not Dick Hyman ...you can't have everything...
	11:39am Baby: Dick Hyman?
	11:39am Squints: My WAG would be Townsend just because that's right in his wheelhouse.
	11:39am clarke: alright - i'll guess Albert Hammond, Jr
	11:39am drr: sounded like The Hives.
	11:39am Squints: ↳ Squints @11:39 Greg not Pete. Hence no "h."
	11:40am clarke: ↳ Baby @11:39 is that supposed to be some kinda joke?!?
	11:40am berbo: Is Dick Hyman related to Jeff "Joey" Hyman?
	11:40am clarke: baby..... Baby... BABY!!!!!
	11:41am Baby: Oh. Peter Gabriel?
	11:41am gf2002: I thought Albert Hammond Jr. too! He has a solo track called "101" from 2007 which is an all-time fave and a total #1 hit record. Great song.
	11:41am clarke: ↳ Baby @11:41 where the hell are you galivantin'??
	11:43am clarke: hopefully no stroke involved.
	11:43am Cooh John: That sounds flat for the Ramones.
	11:43am Baby: The OC Clarke
	11:43am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Gonna Need Someone" by "Ringo Starr" Hang on, you said he was in a big band previously.
	11:43am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Gonna Need Someone" by "Ringo Starr" This pretty much rocks.
	11:43am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Song: "Gonna Need Someone" by "Ringo Starr" I'll be seeing him 9/25 at RCMH!!
	11:43am clarke: ↳ Baby @11:43 kule, doooode!!

	11:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Gonna Need Someone" by "Ringo Starr" ...don't mess with Apple lawyers ...TheBeatles got a Lust For Rights...
	11:44am clarke: like the vocal effect, too!
	11:44am Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:43 A BIG band. Not a big BAND.
	11:44am Mr. Jones: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:44 HA!
	11:45am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:44 shit man, we forgot to celeb about the C's!!! niiiice, huh???
	11:46am Hughie Considine: Who remembers the F-Troop episode starring Henry Gibson as Wrongo Starr?
	11:46am Officer Pupp: Go Ringo!!
	11:46am Baby: Does anyone else think he was handed this track lock stock and barrel? Here Ringo, sing this.
	11:46am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:45 *I* dinna forget. Although Friday's my WFH day and I had a long pub crawl on Thursday so I wasn't up in town for it. Happy bor the ballclub and especially for Horford.
	11:46am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:46 need to re-visit! any idea how?
	11:47am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yerknow - Ringo was on Mike Douglas or something in the day ...talkin' about how he liked TheCramps. He's just forever adorable...
	11:47am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Gonna Need Someone" by "Ringo Starr" Speaking of Bowie...Was Iggy's "Lust For Life" the first song to use that guitar/drum rhythm? I can't think of an earlier one, but if a groove can be copywritten....
	11:47am Dennis: Chris Price, who produced Emmit Rhodes’s comeback, is all over that new Ringo EP.
	11:47am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:46 YES!!! (is it definite that horford is retiring?? i think he has another year)
	11:48am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:46 Unfortunately Hulu charges for each episode. We watched the Wrongo episode not long ago.
	11:48am McGroovey: ↳ gf2002 @11:47 It's kind of a rockabilly rhythm, with a growl.
	11:48am paul: I think the Ringo release is an EP.
	11:49am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:48 well, if hulu has it, maybe someone will stream it soon.
	11:49am Crei6hton: Sup WFMU
	11:49am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:47 He's probably comes back next year when it will become apparent that, like Walton, this should have been the year. But a stand up guy. He is not South Beach. He is not Hollywood He is Causeway Street. HE IS A CELTIC.
	11:50am clarke: ↳ Song: "Shades of Blue" by "Shandels, The" i believe Frank is of the Levittown persuasion. where is that guy??
	11:50am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Michael & all!
	11:50am Squints: ↳ Song: "Shades of Blue" by "Shandels, The" So wanted this to be Utopia's "One World."
	11:50am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:49 There are some full episodes on youtube.
	11:51am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:50 i need to watch in order. the storch plot line is important.

	11:52am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:51 A purist!
	11:52am Michael Shelley: ↳ Baby @11:46 good question
	11:52am gf2002: ↳ McGroovey @11:48 I went to wikipedia, that cites Motown's "You Can't Hurry Love", "I'm Ready For Love", and an AFN call signal as the origin of that beat. Hmmm. But it's the way the guitars and drums lock in on Iggy's track that got reused so often and obviously Ringo liked it too!
	11:52am Squints: Yep. And the intro.
	11:52am Michael Shelley: BABY - where ya at?
	11:52am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:52 never a purist. just thorough.

	11:55am Moammar: ↳ Moammar @11:55 "Call me Mr. Clean." Too much.
	11:57am clarke: ↳ Song: "I Want You Bad" by "NRBQ" The Voice.
	11:57am myron feld: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:50 Quite possibly the greatest show ever. Leave us not forget the episode in which Agarn manages rock group The Bedbugs (as portrayed by Lowell George and The Factory)
	11:59am Mr. Jones: ↳ myron feld @11:57 I think they got the gig because the Beau Brummelstones were busy over on the Flintstone set.
	11:59am Hughie Considine: ↳ myron feld @11:57 I have to go back and see that one. Only a vague memory. Storch was just comedy gold. "Who says I'm dumb???"
	11:59am Steve Del Sol: I saw the National Rhythm & Blues Quartet years ago. Boy, they are great!!
	11:59am Squints: ↳ Song: "I Want You Bad" by "NRBQ" This never doesn't make me happy.
	11:59am clarke: mister vanderbocki, if you would just hear me out....
	12:00pm McGroovey: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:54 That too. Yeah, Iggy didn't invent it, but he sure injected it into guitar-rock.
	12:00pm clarke: THE Bass Player!
	12:01pm P-90: Rex saunters from time to time
	12:01pm drr: ↳ Squints @11:49 Hey, I guess I'm Causeway Street; I lived there (believe it or not) in the late 80s. But I have never been to a Celtics game.

	12:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...FMU 's a lonely town ...when yer the only NewHampshuh boy around...

	12:05pm Baby: U too Clarke
	12:05pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "The Hamptons" by "Bruce Johnston" Any song that mentions TV dinner is ok by me.
	12:06pm clarke: ↳ Baby @12:05 to the toppermost!
	12:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...put it in yer Tang ...miracles of Modern Science...
	12:08pm gf2002: Sounds like Bruce and Terry borrowed the groove from Bobby Rydell's "Wildwood Days", which also came out in '63...or was it the other way around?
	12:08pm clarke: ↳ Song: "I'm Not Broke, I'm Badly Bent" by "Lattie Moore" jiminy christmas!!
	12:09pm Moammar: Always a little sad to hear Steve Cropper bragging on the Blues Brothers.
	12:10pm Dennis: I’m willing to bet that Bruce never ate a TV dinner, EVER.
	12:12pm clarke: is it time to talk about the gabba gootch??
	12:12pm Squints: ↳ gf2002 @12:08 "Wildwood Days" is a great, great record.
	12:12pm gf2002: ↳ Dennis @12:10 Not even the Swansons Salisbury Steak?

	12:13pm Baby: Boy. Jumped right out, this one.
	12:15pm gf2002: ↳ Squints @12:12 Yes! It makes me miss the "oldies" radio format I grew up with when they actually spun those records. The oldies stations now play Goo Goo Dolls and Boyz 2 Men

	12:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" ...good sound ...90s band ??...
	12:20pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" This b/w "Did You No Wrong" tied with "I Get Around/Don't Worry Baby" as Greatest Single Ever

	12:21pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" Ah, yes. I haven't heard this one in a few years.
	12:21pm bd: when I was 16 and our band played God Save the Queen we had no way of knowing what the real lyrics were. I still sing “when theres no mercy on the dog’s head”. is that the real words? still dont knlw.
	12:21pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:21 That Cobain fella

	12:24pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "God Save The Queen" by "Sex Pistols" Question: Is anyone now obligated to change this to "God Save The King," even if all the other lyrics stay the same?
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:22 speaking of meal: anyone in the nola area - "we" are meeting at The Rink after the shelley show for some sammiches.
	12:24pm Moammar: ↳ Song: "Let's Dance" by "Rivieras, The" Finally, a song that demonstrates the expressive range of the Rivieras.

	12:32pm tonyb: Was Judy Carne married to Burt Reynolds? Might be a short story there.
	12:33pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Sufferin' Creature" by "Faith Healer" totally, duuude!!
	12:33pm morphe': ↳ Song: "Sock It To Me Country Style" by "Nat Stuckey" Made me think of "BACK SIDE of Dallas" Jeannie C. Riley not a request ... just a feeling with One "L" ...

	12:38pm Hughie Considine: ↳ myron feld @12:33 Somehow I imagined that question would lead to something interesting. Looking forward to this one, which is new to me. Thanks!
	12:39pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Direct Sun Light" by "Gary Owens" I know this is unintentional but Gary Owens was the MC on Laugh-In. Not this one. We need one more for the trifecta. Michael, you don't happen to have any Joanne Worley, do you?
	12:41pm drr: Hey, gonna drop a movie here while it's fresh in my mind: Ordinary People (USA, 1980, dir. Robert Redford). I think it won Best Picture, which is ironic since it is very good. Watched b/c of Domald Sutherland (great role as a sensitive but passive tax attorney), but the other principals (Mary Tyler Moore, Timothy Hutton, and Judd Hirsch) are excellent, Elizabeth McGovern wonderful (not much screen time but what there is is great), and Emmet Walsh as a swim coach lights up the screen in the way only he can. It's melodramatic, I guess, but if it is I would watch more movies like it. Afraid this means I'll have to revisit On Golden Pond.
	12:42pm Dan S: Is anyone planning to go to the CD sale today? I was thinking of it but I think it's too damn hot to schlep from Queens to Jersey City.

	12:43pm clarke: for instance, it is "only" 88 here, right now. but, just go outside and SEE! i got a fever of a hundred and three!
	12:44pm Dan S: ↳ clarke @12:42 Some people say it's not the heat, it's the humidity. I say: It's Both!
	12:44pm Moammar: ↳ Moammar @12:43 Words to live by: oogity oo. oogity ah.
	12:44pm clarke: ↳ clarke @12:43 the only cure if more cowbell!
	12:44pm Hubig Pie: ↳ gf2002 @12:42 Don't forget your Alan Sues
	12:45pm Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dan S @12:42 Nope. Couldn't do it.
	12:46pm Dan S: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @12:45 OK. That gives you more time to listen to all the CDs you got at the last sale. :) Or are you all caught up?
	12:46pm steveo: Loving the Saturday afternoon vibe
	12:46pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:43 I hear 88 and I'm thinking it sounds like a good day to cut the grass and break out the weedeater.
	12:47pm Eli: The radio signal is having a heat stroke right now.
	12:47pm Dan S: ↳ steveo @12:46 Me too.
	12:48pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:46 it actually is - because the humility is down, today! you don't need to cut the grass, you need to git yer ass to The Rink!!
	12:49pm Squints: ↳ Song: "I Know a Secret" by "Mosquitos, The" Which one's Irving?
	12:49pm clarke: the particular sandwich in quest of, today, would be Crunchy Turkey - which is kinda like a monte christo, but with Zapps potato chips IN the sandwich!! it's a winnah.
	12:50pm Handy Haversack: Back for the end! The mosquitoes are general over Brooklyn.
	12:50pm McGroovey: ↳ Dan S @12:46 Yeah, I haven't listened to so the ones I got at the last sale, and I know Cheryl TN got 10x as many as I got
	12:50pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:41 Dave: Ordinary People is one of the only movies that made me cry in the theater.
	12:51pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "I Know a Secret" by "Mosquitos, The" "Ok boys, end on one of those pretty chords, let's go..." - Murry Wilson if he produced the Mosquitos
	12:52pm clarke: ↳ Song: "It's My Feeling" by "Del Shannon" a del i haven't heard - til now.
	12:52pm common: ↳ clarke @12:50 just started watching that last eve. i also cried. in my apt
	12:52pm clarke: ↳ common @12:52 timothy hutton - vastly underrated as an actor.
	12:53pm berbo: Very powerful. Donald McNichol Sutherland RIP
	12:53pm common: ↳ clarke @12:52 totally agree. everyone is great in that film
	12:54pm clarke: ↳ berbo @12:53 that too! DS is really great in that too. understated.
	12:54pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:50 You know a weird thing about it? There's no popular music in it. Even when the kids talk about music it's classical. Though: did the ubiquity of Pachelbel's Canon coincide with that movie's release?
	12:54pm clarke: and let's just say: of course, mary tyler moore is insanely effective.
	12:55pm common: ↳ drr @12:54 my father told me he thought so
	12:55pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:54 i'm pretty sure Platoon caused that resurge??
	12:55pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Ugly Man's Blues" by "Swamp Dogg" LOL. Some potential pick-up lines in this song. I could have used them back in the day. Well, it's too late now.
	12:55pm P-90: Can’t mention the fine performances in Ordinary People without including Dinah Manoff!
	12:55pm G: ↳ clarke @12:54 I think we said lunch 1:15, right after Shelley? I guess that’s 12:15 NOLA time? So I’ll leave a little after the top of the hour?
	12:55pm gf2002: Ordinary People is now on my watch list. I'd also recommend "Klute" which I thought was great. And I have to rewatch MASH too because Sutherland steals the movie IMO (along with Bobby Troup). And Sutherland was also good in the Invasion Of The Body Snatchers 70's remake
	12:55pm clarke: ↳ P-90 @12:55 oh yeah, AND judd hirsch too
	12:56pm Dan S: ↳ McGroovey @12:50 Catch-up time in this heat wave.
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ G @12:55 cool, man. i'll be biking over around then. starving!
	12:56pm P-90: One of Judd Hirsch’s best parts
	12:56pm Dan S: Thanks for the show, Michael!
	12:56pm G: ↳ clarke @12:56 See you then…
	12:57pm Hubig Pie: RR directorial debut for Ordinary Peoples. Won the Oscar.
	12:57pm drr: ↳ P-90 @12:55 Agreed. Just one scene but it does a lot.
	12:57pm McGroovey: Is it over already? That's so unfaaairruh!
	12:57pm clarke: yeah that too hp
	12:57pm Montmaster J: ↳ gf2002 @12:55 He's also really great in Eye of the Needle. Great actor.
	12:57pm clarke: oh man, this interview - WHEW!!
	12:58pm Moammar: ↳ Song: a song What an ass.
	12:58pm drr: ↳ P-90 @12:56 Good Will Hunting borrows a lot from the Hirsch/Hutton scenes. That won Best Pic too, I think.
	12:58pm morphe': Thanks Mikey and Chex and Life and all !!!!
	12:58pm clarke: do you like the austraiian press??
	12:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ MS ~
