	11:07am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:06 Frank! DAMN did we pick 2 good games to attend.

	11:07am egould: Very happy for Cactus Blossoms today. I’ve seen them twice; great band. And those harmonies!
	11:08am Scott from Boston: Michael, did you say weed butter???
	11:08am clarke: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @11:07 apparently there was some controversy over whether you'd be here. the mets certainly showed up!
	11:08am Scott from Boston: If so… Post immediately!😂😂
	11:09am Frank In Queens: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @11:07 Greg! Glad you made it to Game 4. I had to bail on Game 3. Being out in the chilly shade all day Sunday caused my cold to come roaring back, and I didn't think spending an evening in the cold at Citi Field was a particularly good idea. Thrilled about the outcome though!
	11:10am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:09 historic shit!
	11:10am Cooh John: Good morning Michael and #1ers.
	11:11am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:09 Aww, bummer. Well thankfully there will be plenty more games to attend this season :D
	11:11am Frank In Queens: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @11:11 Let's hope!
	11:12am Listener Baby: That pedal, would be a tape machine.
	11:12am Christina Ginger: Good morning!
	11:12am clarke: subway series...
	11:12am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:12 Don't jinx it!

	11:13am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:12 i got no dog in the hunt!
	11:13am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:13 I know, but still!
	11:14am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:13 still... some crazy games goin on!
	11:14am Christina Ginger: ↳ clarke @11:12 Hey clarke!
	11:14am Frank In Queens: Great show from Nick last night, but you could've guessed that would be the case even if you weren't there.
	11:15am clarke: ↳ Christina Ginger @11:14 hay!!
	11:15am PatrickMC: Saw Nick's Thursday night show. Nick clearly having much fun. Really love the 'Jackets mid-set set.
	11:15am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Lullaby Of The Leaves" by "Mickey Baker" And it’s not Steve G, Baby? Sounds like the Allison kit.
	11:16am clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @11:15 goulding was my guess.
	11:16am jim from wood ridge NJ: My fav NLowe song / made it to most mix tapes!
	11:16am Squints: Diggin' the Metropolitans this year and rooting for them to take down two big $$$ clubs I hate. (I don't hate can't hate Mookie. But I do hate the Dodgers.)
	11:17am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:16 ah... the dichotomy of man.
	11:17am Christina Ginger: According to this, the drummer is Glen Colson in the video www.facebook.com...
	11:18am luka: as a fan of the smaller team in a two team city (you may have heard they lost a few games this year), go mets baby love da mets
	11:18am egould: Mookie is a non-factor in Dodgers postseason season.
	11:18am clarke: ↳ Song: "I'm Alive" by "Syndicate Of Sound" oh wow. i assumed when i saw Ballard that it was glen.
	11:19am Michael Shelley: ↳ Christina Ginger @11:17 Interesting - I THINK he was a STIFF PR guy!
	11:20am Moammar: ↳ Squints @11:16 Team of destiny!
	11:20am Squints: Someone's in touch with their inner Del Shannon here.
	11:20am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:19 and he lived on Uzzle Street!
	11:20am Listener Baby: www.biggleswadetoday.co.uk...
	11:21am Squints: ↳ egould @11:18 Even without hating, this does not displease me.
	11:21am clarke: Syndicate OF Sound right??
	11:21am Moammar: Michael Shelley live remote from Citi?
	11:23am Christina Ginger: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:19 That’s him! he also has a book out…. The internet is good sometimes. glencolson.com
	11:24am clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @11:20 great article! will read full, later.
	11:24am egould: Too late for drinking. Too soon for coffee. Never!
	11:24am clarke: right now, i am busy moving rope!
	11:25am Frank In Queens: cream cheese FTW
	11:25am Cooh John: Those claps sound loud this week.
	11:25am Frank In Queens: ah!
	11:25am Squints: Weed buttah, theah.
	11:25am Frank In Queens: weeeeeeedd
	11:25am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:25 what's the diff?? ha ha
	11:26am P-90!: “I CAN’T BELIEVE it’s not weed butter!”
	11:26am clarke: ROUNDED CORNERS!!!!! WOOT!!
	11:27am PatrickMC: The OMG song disqualifies the Amazins
	11:27am Squints: Might have to talk the fellas in the rehearsal band about calling ourselves "Weed Butter." I've never been able to sell them on "Cougar Bait."
	11:28am Squints: ↳ Song: "Play The Music Toronadoes" by "T.S.U. Toronadoes,... G G Y
	11:28am Greg from ZONE 5: Everyone who attended was a winner, because we all got to eat a big pile of homemade coffee cake.
	11:28am sharon: I listen every Saturday- love the show! Thanks for the recipes.
	11:28am P-90: Is this the recipe for the cinnamon rolls depicted on last week’s show page?
	11:28am clarke: Stax often just licensed rekkids.
	11:29am Moammar: ↳ Song: "Play The Music Toronadoes" by "T.S.U. Toronadoes,... Drell-a-riffic!
	11:30am Michael Shelley: ↳ PatrickMC @11:15 Agree - wouldn't object to a few more LS songs mid-set!
	11:30am Michael Shelley: FOOD & #1 HIT CLUB CARDS: www.michaelshelley.net...
	11:30am clarke: ↳ Moammar @11:29 they dance just as good as they went
	11:31am clarke: want
	11:32am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Tico Tico" by "Modern Sounds, The" What planet did you say this guy was from?
	11:32am Kotzwinkled: Mike and Co.! So pumped for today. We love the Cactus Blossoms in our household. Years ago I saw them with my then gf and they covered Charlie Rich's "Life Has It's Little Ups and Downs" I had a revelation I should propose and we soon after got married. BLOSSOM POWER
	11:32am Kotzwinkled: Its*
	11:33am Marie in Chicago: Good morning! Enjoying these scintillating sounds!
	11:33am Joe B: ↳ Moammar @11:29 well, they are from Houston!
	11:33am Frank In Queens: Tico is my faaaaaaaavorite....
	11:34am clarke: ↳ Joe B @11:33 they went to school there, at least
	11:34am Listener Baby: ↳ Kotzwinkled @11:32 I have a tear inducing version of that song, recorded on my back patio. That song was made for them.. iI love your story.
	11:34am Moammar: ↳ Joe B @11:33 They morphed into Archie Bell and the Drells and went up to Philly.
	11:34am drr: I have the volume down low and I thought he said "Everybody loves garlic", and I bet I'm not the only one.
	11:35am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "Everybody Loves Dolly" by "Jonathan Richman" Anybody else seeing Jojo @ WEH tonite?
	11:35am Toothgrinder Tom: How does Jonathan Richman sound so earnest? Despite singing quasi-nonsense songs (I mean that in the most complimentary way)?
	11:35am Steve Del Sol: ↳ drr @11:34 Yes. It is so.
	11:35am Frank In Queens: Now you've done it....
	11:36am clarke: ↳ drr @11:34 mondegreen garlic!
	11:36am Kotzwinkled: ↳ Listener Baby @11:34 I would love to hear it again! We've seen them like 5 times but never caught the cover a second time.
	11:36am money&pain: Depends on the crowd
	11:36am clarke: then again, if you have seen a great jonathan show - then keep it at that!
	11:37am clarke: LarkinS!
	11:37am luker duker: I cry every time I see Jonny <3 tears of joy
	11:37am Cooh John: Or the condition of the carpet!
	11:37am Squints: All those acts playing tonight. One would have to have multiple selves.
	11:38am clarke: ↳ Song: "Loud Music In Cars" by "Billy Bremner" sa-weeet!!
	11:38am TimG: Jonathan lives here in Chico CA and is essentially a roving minstrel on our streets…one can hear him randomly at Farmers Market, local businesses. Pretty damn cool.
	11:38am Handy Haversack: If you're looking for something to do before one of those shows, K8 has organized a benefit for the National Network of Abortion Funds this afternoon at Mama Tried. Five bands! 3 PM - 8 PM! Brooklyn! Cool collage flyer! mamatriedbk.com...
	11:38am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Loud Music In Cars" by "Billy Bremner" Shoulda been a hit!
	11:39am Listener Baby: ↳ Kotzwinkled @11:36 I would need to dig it out. If you can contact me, I could send it to you. But you’d have not keep it to yourself.
	11:39am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:38 cool flyer!!
	11:40am Kitchenwitch62: Amazing how “not being a dick” is now considered a ‘Liberal message’
	11:41am clarke: Tim lives near evanston!
	11:41am Brian C.: Big Jonathan fan here, have seen him 4-5 times but the last show I saw was disapointing (Outpost in the Burbs, maybe 2-3 years ago), he might've spent as much time talking as singing. Whole show was < 1 hour. No encore despite very receptive crowd. Was a real bummer
	11:41am dano59: I think Jonathan has the most endearing stage manner of anyone I’ve ever seen (even when he’s insisting a fan way offstage back in the kitchen or a buzzing light 20 feet overhead be switched off before he’ll begin/continue). Took a friend 11 years ago who didn’t know any of his music, and she loved it. Instant fan.
	11:42am Kotzwinkled: ↳ Listener Baby @11:39 That would be incredible. I can give you my email: dylan.sands@gmail.com
	11:43am Listener Baby: ↳ Kotzwinkled @11:42 Okay. Might take a while. Leaving for Yosemite today. Will be in touch.
	11:43am clarke: Magic Room tracked some drums for GbV, as well!!
	11:43am clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @11:43 whoahhh!!! nice trip!!
	11:43am Handy Haversack: Ah, the Jeremy who won is Clay's Wed.-morning associate producer and general all-around great guy!
	11:43am Kotzwinkled: ↳ Listener Baby @11:43 Bless you!
	11:44am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:43 therefore disqualified!
	11:44am Hughie Considine: Hey all, what'd I miss?
	11:44am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:43 Ha, was just about to post this. Kevin March is a Monclair resident. BTW, Strut Of Kings in their best LP since Earth Man Blues, hands down
	11:44am clarke: ↳ Song: "Be What I Wanna (live for WFMU at Magic Door)" by... thanks for this MS!!!!
	11:44am Kotzwinkled: The fuzz guitar on this track is so good.
	11:44am tonyb: Scott Williams does a sweet Jonathan imitation from when Scott covered sound for the Jonathan Monty gig.
	11:44am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:43 Great horny toads.
	11:44am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:44 not yoga, apparently!
	11:44am Joe B: ↳ Moammar @11:34 oh I didn't realize it was actually the same guys! thanks! I just knew the tsu was for texas southern u.
	11:45am Michael Shelley: ↳ Christina Ginger @11:23 They probably just needed a warm body to mime the drums... which maybe explains why they barely show the drummer at all!
	11:46am clarke: oops Magic DOOR. what's got into me??
	11:46am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:45 stiff was throwing folks into vids all the time - see Baby's article!
	11:47am PatrickMC: ↳ Brian C. @11:41 I recall having the same feeling at a JR show a few years ago. Tom Russell once too. I dig stage patter and stories, but would have loved a couple more songs instead.
	11:47am Michael Shelley: The actual card (with rounded corners which cost $5 extra): www.wfmu.org...
	11:48am clarke: ↳ PatrickMC @11:47 have only seen Russell, once - at the Bottom Line - so that's a long time ago! he was good that night.
	11:48am Michael Shelley: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @11:28 AGREE!!!
	11:49am Michael Shelley: ↳ P-90 @11:28 YES INDEED!
	11:49am paddy in matawan: so the blossoms aren't playing in NY/NJ until Bkln Folk??
	11:49am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @11:32 Guitarsville
	11:49am clarke: ↳ Song: "Something's Got A Hold On Me (live for WFMU at Ma... great sound!!
	11:49am PatrickMC: ↳ clarke @11:48 He is super, but this was a solo gig at the tiny Turning Point in Piermont NY and maybe thr intimacy of the room brought out a little more of the storyteller in him.
	11:50am Michael Shelley: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:33 no bad versions?
	11:50am clarke: ↳ PatrickMC @11:49 would love to have seen that!
	11:51am dano59: saw the CBs on Nick’s first Quality Holiday Revue tour also in ‘13 - asked one of them after about the Everlys’ “Christmas Eve Can Kill You” - and he didn’t know it! I’d hope they’ve learned & played it by now.
	11:52am clarke: ↳ dano59 @11:51 i am huge everlys fan and don't know it! than again, i ain't seeking out xmas songs.
	11:52am Michael Shelley: ↳ Brian C. @11:41 That was an odd show - and weird not to do an encore for an adoring sold out crowd.
	11:54am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @11:43 Camping?
	11:54am Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @11:43 All of the last few lps - drummer lives in town
	11:54am drr: ↳ PatrickMC @11:47 I saw a pretty strange solo Bob Mould show last night. (I don't know why he wants to go solo, he could probably pull people out of the audience and we could have a good Hüsker Dü show.) But he talked _a lot_. Best part was his impression of Jello Biafra, who let HD stay at his house, on his porch, and suggested they would do well to go apply for food stamps and bring home some food.
	11:54am paddy in matawan: absolutely hypnotize the last time I saw them at White eagle. it was embarrassingly quiet in the crowd and I kind of felt bad for the Cacti it just felt wrong yelling out and making wild sounds. but if I get the chance to see them again correction when I see them again I'm going to go bananas.
	11:55am Gerry from Miami: Yo, SQUINTS! My Dodgers are in the NLCS again! Hope they have better luck than in recent years. About 6 weeks ago, our VA recreation therapists took a handful of us to a Miami Marlins game. Great experience! Hadn't been to a live baseball game since the OREL HERSHISER days in LA. We got free admission, including food as well. And the home team won in the bottom of the 9th! Marlins Stadium is a beautiful domed facility. School was out for summer, so the place was crawling with kids in city recreation programs or with camp groups and their counselors, all wearing matching t-shirts. A fun time was had by all!
	11:55am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:54 kevin is a good sort!
	11:57am Handy Haversack: ↳ drr @11:34 100 percent.
	11:58am Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:54 Yes. Solo venture.
	11:59am clarke: so... are there no shows at Opryland, anymore?? of they do two locations?
	12:01pm clarke: The Grays - WOW!!
	12:01pm clarke: ↳ clarke @12:01 one of the youtube stumpers!
	12:01pm Frank In Queens: Chant....Jesus. What a weird phenomenon that was.
	12:02pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Gerry from Miami @11:55 I am definitely hoping for a Dodgers-Yankees WS.
	12:02pm Greg from ZONE 5: In the 60s the federal government would give you a free Man Of La Mancha LP when you bought a house.
	12:02pm Squints: ↳ Gerry from Miami @11:55 I liked the Dodgers OK back then, Gerry. That Mets club had gotten arrogant and unlikable as the 1980s wore on, and 1986 still made me sad. (A great many hurts washed away in 2004 and I'm fine with 'em since their pinstripes aren't navy. That 2015 club that made the WS seemed like a real loose clubhouse.) The 1988 Dodgers were a very likable ballclub. Mostly I envy now that they spend like the Sox did once and ought to now and it somehow never seems to cost the Dodgers in terms of developing talent. It tickles me that only one they one recently was in an asterisky year, and I even begrudge them that one somewhat. Still, I don't hate The Bums like I hate Atletico Palpatine in The Bronx.
	12:04pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Cactus Blossoms, The" "Pat Donohue" was a very on-brand malapropism for "Phil Donahue."
	12:04pm clarke: the bums lost!!
	12:06pm clarke: jesus.. three years no song.
	12:07pm Grimace: LETS GO METS!!!
	12:08pm Squints: ↳ Grimace @12:07 Yup.
	12:10pm clarke: now, i want to know what the first song after the three years was.
	12:11pm Handy Haversack: Koozies! I sure wish WFMU would make more of them. My cat ate my Koozies.
	12:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ♄Saturday FMUvianz ~
	12:11pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:11 and you want to feed them more?
	12:12pm Greg from ZONE 5: Aesthetics DO matter. Some of my favorite artists have weak visual identities and it drives me NUTS.
	12:12pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:11 mawnin' Rev!
	12:14pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @12:12 You should do consulting work on that front.
	12:15pm Michael Shelley: Yeah... phone holders... bad
	12:15pm clarke: ass-thetics!
	12:18pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:14 I'll do it for free!
	12:18pm Frank In Queens: Veggies on the road can definitely be a challenge. Especially greens!
	12:20pm Squints: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:15 Couple of quick snaps to memorialize the experience and then put it away. Although if the trombonist sings through his bell mic, do capture that. And when JoJo played The Spire, I turned that thing off at the outset and kept if firmly in my pocket. Did not want to convey the least sign that he my full attention was not commanded.
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:18 back in the day.. wendy's used to have a salad bar. with broccoli!
	12:23pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Cactus Blossoms, The" another great interview!
	12:23pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:22 I was friends with a band from Buffalo who did a lot of road work. The only fast food place they would stop was Wendy's.
	12:23pm clarke: ↳ clarke @12:23 i.e. REAL conversation!
	12:23pm Marie in Chicago: wow, what a great song. Thanks Michael and Cactus Blossoms!
	12:23pm Handy Haversack: As Frank knows, you can get Taco Bell to make all their stuff vegetarian and vegan!
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:23 another trick was to get their baked potato and put broccoli and cheese up in thar.
	12:25pm clarke: this band is so fucking good!
	12:25pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Boomerang (live for WFMU at Magic Door)" by "Cact... Do I smell a Live from Magic Door Cactus Blossoms release? I hope I smell that!
	12:26pm clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @12:25 it ain't grizzly bear scat!! (hopefully!)
	12:26pm Squints: ↳ drr @12:23 Wendy's is legit. Dave's double, no ketchup, no mayo, just lettuce, pickle, tomato, cheese and bacon. When they had Roy Rogers places on the NJ Turnpike those were good that way, too, with the fixins bar.
	12:27pm egould: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:18 Most restaurants are terrible at cooking vegetables. And a salad from a restaurant is a good way to get e. coli. It didn’t used to be this way.
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ Squints @12:26 RIP RR's!
	12:28pm Listener Baby: ↳ clarke @12:26 Indeed. I’m off to the land of “Bear Lockers”
	12:28pm Squints: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:23 We have much better Mexican up this way than we did even fifteen years ago. But I confess to an occasional weakness for Taco Bell.
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @12:28 hope it will be GRAND!!
	12:30pm Squints: ↳ clarke @12:25 Yep. Was first hooked when they were on the Twin Peaks return in 2017 (2nd or 3rd episode during the roadhouse segment). VERY soon after that Michael started playing them. Love these guys.
	12:30pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Squints @12:28 We stop at one in southeastern Michigan when we drive to western MI. Not a lot of options for vegetarians on the American Road.
	12:30pm egould: ↳ Listener Baby @12:28 Remember, if you encounter a bear to shriek loudly and erratically. If the bear advances on you, run from it for 30 feet and then fall down.
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ egould @12:30 is this true???
	12:32pm egould: ↳ clarke @12:31 My good friend is a bear, and he swears by it.
	12:32pm drr: ↳ drr @12:23 doesn't matter, it's funny.
	12:32pm Listener Baby: Baby. Who was playing Pedal Steel? Or that volume pedal guitar?
	12:32pm Squints: ↳ clarke @12:31 That's empirical work I'm quite happy to let someone else undertake.
	12:33pm clarke: smarter than the average bear.
	12:33pm Listener Baby: ↳ egould @12:30 Or I could employ my absolutely horrible singing voice. That would take care of things, tout suite.
	12:33pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @12:32 Jake Hanson
	12:34pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:33 he is a guddun!!
	12:34pm Squints: ↳ clarke @12:33 Deploy the pickanick basket chaff.
	12:34pm clarke: but yogi!!
	12:34pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "That's What A Love Song Does To You" by "JD McPhe... Wow.
	12:36pm clarke: i got baggage
	12:36pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "That's What A Love Song Does To You" by "JD McPhe... Great record. Sounds like it could have been a Brian Wilson outtake from 1963...
	12:36pm PatrickMC: The Q were originally supposed to play Iridium in August but shows were postponed to December.
	12:38pm clarke: RRS - YES!!
	12:39pm clarke: got Red Rose Speedway the day it came out!
	12:39pm gf2002: Swore off fast food about 5 years ago. I never, and I mean never, got a truly hot burger at a Wendy's. They were always cold. Same with the fries. The chili was good though. But nothing else. If I did go back to fast food it would be Arby's beef n cheddar with curly fries, but then I heard the beef they were using was fake or something and they changed the composition of the beef? Oh well.
	12:40pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Power Cut (One Hand Clapping)" by "Paul McCartney" Linda really making her presence felt
	12:40pm Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:33 So that was Jack soloing?
	12:40pm clarke: ha ha
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Power Cut (One Hand Clapping)" by "Paul McCartney" Very stadium organ.
	12:41pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:39 I must confess I didn't dig "My Love" as a young radio listener.
	12:41pm clarke: how do you get the macca sessions, again??
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ Song: "I Can't Help it (If I'm Still in Love With You)" ... i do believe this is Jay Sherman!
	12:42pm Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:41 I bought the single. It was OK. "The Mess" on the flip grabbed me hard.
	12:42pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Power Cut (One Hand Clapping)" by "Paul McCartney" Another great one. I don't think I ever heard that beginning--sweeet
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:41 who did?!?
	12:42pm egould: ↳ gf2002 @12:39 I don’t go to the chain fast food places. If I got a hankering for a burger, I’ll search out ‘Hank n Edna’s Burger Haus’ or ‘Louis Number #3’. Can be hit or miss, but defaulting to McDonalds is definitely a miss.
	12:43pm Squints: ↳ Song: "I Can't Help it (If I'm Still in Love With You)" ... Oh. My. Goodness. Doug & Augie meet Dan Baird. This is just real nice.
	12:43pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Squints @12:42 Interesting -- his B-sides could run circles around those of most mortal men.
	12:43pm clarke: surprisin' eh?
	12:44pm gf2002: ↳ Squints @12:42 The Mess is a great track! I forgot about that one, due for a fresh listen! I used to spin that one all the time - It was on the "Red Rose Speedway" label, I had the 45 and later got the album for Christmas on vinyl.
	12:44pm Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:43 Yep. Some acts are like that. Still boggles my mind that The Rascals' "What Is The Reason?' was not even that but consigned to an LP track.
	12:45pm clarke: oh man, that Wiretroop - Bremner show ought to be fantastic!
	12:45pm Squints: ↳ Song: "Mississippi" by "Cactus Blossoms, The" This is the number they played on Twin Peaks. I was entranced. I thought all their stuff was this moody until Michael started playing other stuff from the record.
	12:47pm clarke: the only time i ever skipped school was to take the streetcar down to the french quarter to get paul mccartney's autograph. he didn't sign any autographs, but shook my hand and talked to us a bit.
	12:47pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Squints @12:44 So many shoulda-been hits with the Rascals. "Love is a Beautiful Thing" for one...
	12:47pm Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:47 "Go GET it, now!"
	12:47pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "Mississippi" by "Cactus Blossoms, The" The chances of getting a song on the Twin Peaks soundtracks were greatly enhanced by featuring a baritone guitar and/or a low guitar with amp tremolo.
	12:48pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:47 That's pretty poetic - the first part anyway.
	12:48pm Squints: ↳ clarke @12:47 "Remember that? That was great."
	12:49pm Squints: ↳ gf2002 @12:47 Without doubt. "Wicked Game" was in that same vein and I thought that's who Chris Isaak was. Then I dove into the records and was happy they were a wee bouncier.
	12:49pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:48 of course, macca was in town recording with allan toussaint!
	12:50pm Listener Baby: ↳ gf2002 @12:47 100% True!
	12:50pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:49 So much genius in one place - amazing the room didn't just explode.
	12:51pm egould: Thanks, Michael. Thanks, Cactus Blossoms. Go Bucks!
	12:51pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:50 one of us kids was tipped that they left their hotel (The Monteleone) at noon, every day. we wait outside.
	12:52pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Something Inside Me" by "Slim Harpo" Harpo reminds of the time three friends of mine were the Marx Bros. for Halloween. Lemme tell ya, it's not easy being Chico.
	12:52pm Hubig Pie: ↳ clarke @12:49 So that wasn't when the Beatles played in City Park.
	12:52pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Boomerang (live for WFMU at Magic Door)" by "Cact... The guitar on Boomerang (Live) reminds me of The Volebeats Sky and the Ocean
	12:53pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:51 Now that's a nice joint. Great barber too!
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:52 no - but i 'saw' that, too! tad gormley stadium.
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 the hotel? yes: amazing!
	12:54pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, MS!
	12:55pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "Something Inside Me" by "Slim Harpo" I really like blues sung with this kind of voice versus the expected gruff/gravel kind of blues singing. It's funny it reminds me of Blind Owl Wilson singing with Canned Heat, I was just watching their appearance on Playboy After Dark on YT last night and Wilson's guitar solo on "Turpentine Moan" is incredible, one of my favorites all-time
	12:56pm clarke: ever get the feelin' you been cactus'd? good nite.
	12:56pm money&pain: Fakebook! One of my favorite albums
	12:56pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Here Comes My Baby" by "Yo La Tengo" No bad versions
	12:57pm JG: ↳ Song: "Here Comes My Baby" by "Yo La Tengo" What is the original? Tremeloes?
	12:57pm rich the greeb: That first cat Stevens album is 🔥 as is this cover version
	12:57pm clarke: cat stevems
	12:57pm Squints: ↳ PatrickMC @12:56 Never ever.
	12:58pm money&pain: yes!
	12:58pm Hughie Considine: ↳ gf2002 @12:55 There's almost a spooky quality to a softer, higher blues voice. Al was a fascinating, troubled guy. Interesting details about him in the John Fahey biography Dance of Death.
	12:58pm rich the greeb: Tremeloes had the hit but it’s a cat Stevens jam
	12:58pm clarke: yeah i won!
	12:58pm Marie in Chicago: I think Wendy's has really gone down in quality over the years
	12:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ JG @12:57 CatStevens but Tremoloes own it ?
	12:58pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "The Rocktober News Department" by "Whipper Brothe... 🧡
	12:58pm clarke: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:58 agree!
	12:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ MS ~
	12:59pm Squints: HAH ha ha.
	12:59pm clarke: i think you're drunk! good nite.
	12:59pm rich the greeb: The spicy chicken sandwich is still in point I think
	12:59pm money&pain: Thanks MS!
	12:59pm Marie in Chicago: Thanks, Michael! Have a superb Saturday, All!
	12:59pm drr: good night
	12:59pm Listener Baby: Thanks Baby!,

	11:16am Squints: Diggin' the Metropolitans this year and rooting for them to take down two big $$$ clubs I hate. (I don't hate can't hate Mookie. But I do hate the Dodgers.)
	11:17am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:16 ah... the dichotomy of man.
	11:17am Christina Ginger: According to this, the drummer is Glen Colson in the video www.facebook.com...
	11:18am luka: as a fan of the smaller team in a two team city (you may have heard they lost a few games this year), go mets baby love da mets
	11:18am egould: Mookie is a non-factor in Dodgers postseason season.
	11:18am clarke: ↳ Song: "I'm Alive" by "Syndicate Of Sound" oh wow. i assumed when i saw Ballard that it was glen.
	11:19am Michael Shelley: ↳ Christina Ginger @11:17 Interesting - I THINK he was a STIFF PR guy!

	11:24am clarke: right now, i am busy moving rope!
	11:25am Frank In Queens: cream cheese FTW
	11:25am Cooh John: Those claps sound loud this week.
	11:25am Frank In Queens: ah!
	11:25am Squints: Weed buttah, theah.
	11:25am Frank In Queens: weeeeeeedd
	11:25am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:25 what's the diff?? ha ha
	11:26am P-90!: “I CAN’T BELIEVE it’s not weed butter!”
	11:26am clarke: ROUNDED CORNERS!!!!! WOOT!!
	11:27am PatrickMC: The OMG song disqualifies the Amazins
	11:27am Squints: Might have to talk the fellas in the rehearsal band about calling ourselves "Weed Butter." I've never been able to sell them on "Cougar Bait."
	11:28am Squints: ↳ Song: "Play The Music Toronadoes" by "T.S.U. Toronadoes,... G G Y
	11:28am Greg from ZONE 5: Everyone who attended was a winner, because we all got to eat a big pile of homemade coffee cake.
	11:28am sharon: I listen every Saturday- love the show! Thanks for the recipes.
	11:28am P-90: Is this the recipe for the cinnamon rolls depicted on last week’s show page?
	11:28am clarke: Stax often just licensed rekkids.
	11:29am Moammar: ↳ Song: "Play The Music Toronadoes" by "T.S.U. Toronadoes,... Drell-a-riffic!
	11:30am Michael Shelley: ↳ PatrickMC @11:15 Agree - wouldn't object to a few more LS songs mid-set!
	11:30am Michael Shelley: FOOD & #1 HIT CLUB CARDS: www.michaelshelley.net...
	11:30am clarke: ↳ Moammar @11:29 they dance just as good as they went
	11:31am clarke: want
	11:32am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Tico Tico" by "Modern Sounds, The" What planet did you say this guy was from?
	11:32am Kotzwinkled: Mike and Co.! So pumped for today. We love the Cactus Blossoms in our household. Years ago I saw them with my then gf and they covered Charlie Rich's "Life Has It's Little Ups and Downs" I had a revelation I should propose and we soon after got married. BLOSSOM POWER
	11:32am Kotzwinkled: Its*
	11:33am Marie in Chicago: Good morning! Enjoying these scintillating sounds!
	11:33am Joe B: ↳ Moammar @11:29 well, they are from Houston!
	11:33am Frank In Queens: Tico is my faaaaaaaavorite....
	11:34am clarke: ↳ Joe B @11:33 they went to school there, at least
	11:34am Listener Baby: ↳ Kotzwinkled @11:32 I have a tear inducing version of that song, recorded on my back patio. That song was made for them.. iI love your story.
	11:34am Moammar: ↳ Joe B @11:33 They morphed into Archie Bell and the Drells and went up to Philly.
	11:34am drr: I have the volume down low and I thought he said "Everybody loves garlic", and I bet I'm not the only one.
	11:35am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "Everybody Loves Dolly" by "Jonathan Richman" Anybody else seeing Jojo @ WEH tonite?
	11:35am Toothgrinder Tom: How does Jonathan Richman sound so earnest? Despite singing quasi-nonsense songs (I mean that in the most complimentary way)?
	11:35am Steve Del Sol: ↳ drr @11:34 Yes. It is so.
	11:35am Frank In Queens: Now you've done it....
	11:36am clarke: ↳ drr @11:34 mondegreen garlic!
	11:36am Kotzwinkled: ↳ Listener Baby @11:34 I would love to hear it again! We've seen them like 5 times but never caught the cover a second time.
	11:36am money&pain: Depends on the crowd
	11:36am clarke: then again, if you have seen a great jonathan show - then keep it at that!
	11:37am clarke: LarkinS!
	11:37am luker duker: I cry every time I see Jonny <3 tears of joy
	11:37am Cooh John: Or the condition of the carpet!
	11:37am Squints: All those acts playing tonight. One would have to have multiple selves.
	11:38am clarke: ↳ Song: "Loud Music In Cars" by "Billy Bremner" sa-weeet!!
	11:38am TimG: Jonathan lives here in Chico CA and is essentially a roving minstrel on our streets…one can hear him randomly at Farmers Market, local businesses. Pretty damn cool.
	11:38am Handy Haversack: If you're looking for something to do before one of those shows, K8 has organized a benefit for the National Network of Abortion Funds this afternoon at Mama Tried. Five bands! 3 PM - 8 PM! Brooklyn! Cool collage flyer! mamatriedbk.com...
	11:38am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Loud Music In Cars" by "Billy Bremner" Shoulda been a hit!
	11:39am Listener Baby: ↳ Kotzwinkled @11:36 I would need to dig it out. If you can contact me, I could send it to you. But you’d have not keep it to yourself.
	11:39am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:38 cool flyer!!
	11:40am Kitchenwitch62: Amazing how “not being a dick” is now considered a ‘Liberal message’
	11:41am clarke: Tim lives near evanston!
	11:41am Brian C.: Big Jonathan fan here, have seen him 4-5 times but the last show I saw was disapointing (Outpost in the Burbs, maybe 2-3 years ago), he might've spent as much time talking as singing. Whole show was < 1 hour. No encore despite very receptive crowd. Was a real bummer
	11:41am dano59: I think Jonathan has the most endearing stage manner of anyone I’ve ever seen (even when he’s insisting a fan way offstage back in the kitchen or a buzzing light 20 feet overhead be switched off before he’ll begin/continue). Took a friend 11 years ago who didn’t know any of his music, and she loved it. Instant fan.
	11:42am Kotzwinkled: ↳ Listener Baby @11:39 That would be incredible. I can give you my email: dylan.sands@gmail.com
	11:43am Listener Baby: ↳ Kotzwinkled @11:42 Okay. Might take a while. Leaving for Yosemite today. Will be in touch.
	11:43am clarke: Magic Room tracked some drums for GbV, as well!!
	11:43am clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @11:43 whoahhh!!! nice trip!!
	11:43am Handy Haversack: Ah, the Jeremy who won is Clay's Wed.-morning associate producer and general all-around great guy!
	11:43am Kotzwinkled: ↳ Listener Baby @11:43 Bless you!
	11:44am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:43 therefore disqualified!
	11:44am Hughie Considine: Hey all, what'd I miss?
	11:44am Frank In Queens: ↳ clarke @11:43 Ha, was just about to post this. Kevin March is a Monclair resident. BTW, Strut Of Kings in their best LP since Earth Man Blues, hands down
	11:44am clarke: ↳ Song: "Be What I Wanna (live for WFMU at Magic Door)" by... thanks for this MS!!!!
	11:44am Kotzwinkled: The fuzz guitar on this track is so good.
	11:44am tonyb: Scott Williams does a sweet Jonathan imitation from when Scott covered sound for the Jonathan Monty gig.
	11:44am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:43 Great horny toads.
	11:44am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:44 not yoga, apparently!
	11:44am Joe B: ↳ Moammar @11:34 oh I didn't realize it was actually the same guys! thanks! I just knew the tsu was for texas southern u.
	11:45am Michael Shelley: ↳ Christina Ginger @11:23 They probably just needed a warm body to mime the drums... which maybe explains why they barely show the drummer at all!
	11:46am clarke: oops Magic DOOR. what's got into me??
	11:46am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:45 stiff was throwing folks into vids all the time - see Baby's article!
	11:47am PatrickMC: ↳ Brian C. @11:41 I recall having the same feeling at a JR show a few years ago. Tom Russell once too. I dig stage patter and stories, but would have loved a couple more songs instead.
	11:47am Michael Shelley: The actual card (with rounded corners which cost $5 extra): www.wfmu.org...
	11:48am clarke: ↳ PatrickMC @11:47 have only seen Russell, once - at the Bottom Line - so that's a long time ago! he was good that night.
	11:48am Michael Shelley: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @11:28 AGREE!!!
	11:49am Michael Shelley: ↳ P-90 @11:28 YES INDEED!
	11:49am paddy in matawan: so the blossoms aren't playing in NY/NJ until Bkln Folk??
	11:49am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @11:32 Guitarsville
	11:49am clarke: ↳ Song: "Something's Got A Hold On Me (live for WFMU at Ma... great sound!!
	11:49am PatrickMC: ↳ clarke @11:48 He is super, but this was a solo gig at the tiny Turning Point in Piermont NY and maybe thr intimacy of the room brought out a little more of the storyteller in him.
	11:50am Michael Shelley: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:33 no bad versions?
	11:50am clarke: ↳ PatrickMC @11:49 would love to have seen that!
	11:51am dano59: saw the CBs on Nick’s first Quality Holiday Revue tour also in ‘13 - asked one of them after about the Everlys’ “Christmas Eve Can Kill You” - and he didn’t know it! I’d hope they’ve learned & played it by now.
	11:52am clarke: ↳ dano59 @11:51 i am huge everlys fan and don't know it! than again, i ain't seeking out xmas songs.
	11:52am Michael Shelley: ↳ Brian C. @11:41 That was an odd show - and weird not to do an encore for an adoring sold out crowd.
	11:54am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @11:43 Camping?
	11:54am Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @11:43 All of the last few lps - drummer lives in town
	11:54am drr: ↳ PatrickMC @11:47 I saw a pretty strange solo Bob Mould show last night. (I don't know why he wants to go solo, he could probably pull people out of the audience and we could have a good Hüsker Dü show.) But he talked _a lot_. Best part was his impression of Jello Biafra, who let HD stay at his house, on his porch, and suggested they would do well to go apply for food stamps and bring home some food.
	11:54am paddy in matawan: absolutely hypnotize the last time I saw them at White eagle. it was embarrassingly quiet in the crowd and I kind of felt bad for the Cacti it just felt wrong yelling out and making wild sounds. but if I get the chance to see them again correction when I see them again I'm going to go bananas.
	11:55am Gerry from Miami: Yo, SQUINTS! My Dodgers are in the NLCS again! Hope they have better luck than in recent years. About 6 weeks ago, our VA recreation therapists took a handful of us to a Miami Marlins game. Great experience! Hadn't been to a live baseball game since the OREL HERSHISER days in LA. We got free admission, including food as well. And the home team won in the bottom of the 9th! Marlins Stadium is a beautiful domed facility. School was out for summer, so the place was crawling with kids in city recreation programs or with camp groups and their counselors, all wearing matching t-shirts. A fun time was had by all!
	11:55am clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:54 kevin is a good sort!
	11:57am Handy Haversack: ↳ drr @11:34 100 percent.
	11:58am Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:54 Yes. Solo venture.
	11:59am clarke: so... are there no shows at Opryland, anymore?? of they do two locations?
	12:01pm clarke: The Grays - WOW!!
	12:01pm clarke: ↳ clarke @12:01 one of the youtube stumpers!
	12:01pm Frank In Queens: Chant....Jesus. What a weird phenomenon that was.
	12:02pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Gerry from Miami @11:55 I am definitely hoping for a Dodgers-Yankees WS.
	12:02pm Greg from ZONE 5: In the 60s the federal government would give you a free Man Of La Mancha LP when you bought a house.
	12:02pm Squints: ↳ Gerry from Miami @11:55 I liked the Dodgers OK back then, Gerry. That Mets club had gotten arrogant and unlikable as the 1980s wore on, and 1986 still made me sad. (A great many hurts washed away in 2004 and I'm fine with 'em since their pinstripes aren't navy. That 2015 club that made the WS seemed like a real loose clubhouse.) The 1988 Dodgers were a very likable ballclub. Mostly I envy now that they spend like the Sox did once and ought to now and it somehow never seems to cost the Dodgers in terms of developing talent. It tickles me that only one they one recently was in an asterisky year, and I even begrudge them that one somewhat. Still, I don't hate The Bums like I hate Atletico Palpatine in The Bronx.
	12:04pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Cactus Blossoms, The" "Pat Donohue" was a very on-brand malapropism for "Phil Donahue."
	12:04pm clarke: the bums lost!!
	12:06pm clarke: jesus.. three years no song.
	12:07pm Grimace: LETS GO METS!!!
	12:08pm Squints: ↳ Grimace @12:07 Yup.
	12:10pm clarke: now, i want to know what the first song after the three years was.
	12:11pm Handy Haversack: Koozies! I sure wish WFMU would make more of them. My cat ate my Koozies.
	12:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ♄Saturday FMUvianz ~
	12:11pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:11 and you want to feed them more?
	12:12pm Greg from ZONE 5: Aesthetics DO matter. Some of my favorite artists have weak visual identities and it drives me NUTS.
	12:12pm clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:11 mawnin' Rev!
	12:14pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @12:12 You should do consulting work on that front.
	12:15pm Michael Shelley: Yeah... phone holders... bad
	12:15pm clarke: ass-thetics!
	12:18pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:14 I'll do it for free!
	12:18pm Frank In Queens: Veggies on the road can definitely be a challenge. Especially greens!
	12:20pm Squints: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:15 Couple of quick snaps to memorialize the experience and then put it away. Although if the trombonist sings through his bell mic, do capture that. And when JoJo played The Spire, I turned that thing off at the outset and kept if firmly in my pocket. Did not want to convey the least sign that he my full attention was not commanded.
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:18 back in the day.. wendy's used to have a salad bar. with broccoli!
	12:23pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Cactus Blossoms, The" another great interview!
	12:23pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:22 I was friends with a band from Buffalo who did a lot of road work. The only fast food place they would stop was Wendy's.
	12:23pm clarke: ↳ clarke @12:23 i.e. REAL conversation!
	12:23pm Marie in Chicago: wow, what a great song. Thanks Michael and Cactus Blossoms!
	12:23pm Handy Haversack: As Frank knows, you can get Taco Bell to make all their stuff vegetarian and vegan!
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:23 another trick was to get their baked potato and put broccoli and cheese up in thar.
	12:25pm clarke: this band is so fucking good!
	12:25pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Boomerang (live for WFMU at Magic Door)" by "Cact... Do I smell a Live from Magic Door Cactus Blossoms release? I hope I smell that!
	12:26pm clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @12:25 it ain't grizzly bear scat!! (hopefully!)
	12:26pm Squints: ↳ drr @12:23 Wendy's is legit. Dave's double, no ketchup, no mayo, just lettuce, pickle, tomato, cheese and bacon. When they had Roy Rogers places on the NJ Turnpike those were good that way, too, with the fixins bar.
	12:27pm egould: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:18 Most restaurants are terrible at cooking vegetables. And a salad from a restaurant is a good way to get e. coli. It didn’t used to be this way.
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ Squints @12:26 RIP RR's!
	12:28pm Listener Baby: ↳ clarke @12:26 Indeed. I’m off to the land of “Bear Lockers”
	12:28pm Squints: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:23 We have much better Mexican up this way than we did even fifteen years ago. But I confess to an occasional weakness for Taco Bell.
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @12:28 hope it will be GRAND!!
	12:30pm Squints: ↳ clarke @12:25 Yep. Was first hooked when they were on the Twin Peaks return in 2017 (2nd or 3rd episode during the roadhouse segment). VERY soon after that Michael started playing them. Love these guys.
	12:30pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Squints @12:28 We stop at one in southeastern Michigan when we drive to western MI. Not a lot of options for vegetarians on the American Road.
	12:30pm egould: ↳ Listener Baby @12:28 Remember, if you encounter a bear to shriek loudly and erratically. If the bear advances on you, run from it for 30 feet and then fall down.
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ egould @12:30 is this true???
	12:32pm egould: ↳ clarke @12:31 My good friend is a bear, and he swears by it.
	12:32pm drr: ↳ drr @12:23 doesn't matter, it's funny.
	12:32pm Listener Baby: Baby. Who was playing Pedal Steel? Or that volume pedal guitar?
	12:32pm Squints: ↳ clarke @12:31 That's empirical work I'm quite happy to let someone else undertake.
	12:33pm clarke: smarter than the average bear.
	12:33pm Listener Baby: ↳ egould @12:30 Or I could employ my absolutely horrible singing voice. That would take care of things, tout suite.
	12:33pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @12:32 Jake Hanson
	12:34pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:33 he is a guddun!!
	12:34pm Squints: ↳ clarke @12:33 Deploy the pickanick basket chaff.
	12:34pm clarke: but yogi!!
	12:34pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "That's What A Love Song Does To You" by "JD McPhe... Wow.
	12:36pm clarke: i got baggage
	12:36pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "That's What A Love Song Does To You" by "JD McPhe... Great record. Sounds like it could have been a Brian Wilson outtake from 1963...
	12:36pm PatrickMC: The Q were originally supposed to play Iridium in August but shows were postponed to December.
	12:38pm clarke: RRS - YES!!
	12:39pm clarke: got Red Rose Speedway the day it came out!
	12:39pm gf2002: Swore off fast food about 5 years ago. I never, and I mean never, got a truly hot burger at a Wendy's. They were always cold. Same with the fries. The chili was good though. But nothing else. If I did go back to fast food it would be Arby's beef n cheddar with curly fries, but then I heard the beef they were using was fake or something and they changed the composition of the beef? Oh well.
	12:40pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Power Cut (One Hand Clapping)" by "Paul McCartney" Linda really making her presence felt
	12:40pm Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:33 So that was Jack soloing?
	12:40pm clarke: ha ha
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Power Cut (One Hand Clapping)" by "Paul McCartney" Very stadium organ.
	12:41pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:39 I must confess I didn't dig "My Love" as a young radio listener.
	12:41pm clarke: how do you get the macca sessions, again??
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ Song: "I Can't Help it (If I'm Still in Love With You)" ... i do believe this is Jay Sherman!
	12:42pm Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:41 I bought the single. It was OK. "The Mess" on the flip grabbed me hard.
	12:42pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Power Cut (One Hand Clapping)" by "Paul McCartney" Another great one. I don't think I ever heard that beginning--sweeet
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:41 who did?!?
	12:42pm egould: ↳ gf2002 @12:39 I don’t go to the chain fast food places. If I got a hankering for a burger, I’ll search out ‘Hank n Edna’s Burger Haus’ or ‘Louis Number #3’. Can be hit or miss, but defaulting to McDonalds is definitely a miss.
	12:43pm Squints: ↳ Song: "I Can't Help it (If I'm Still in Love With You)" ... Oh. My. Goodness. Doug & Augie meet Dan Baird. This is just real nice.
	12:43pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Squints @12:42 Interesting -- his B-sides could run circles around those of most mortal men.
	12:43pm clarke: surprisin' eh?
	12:44pm gf2002: ↳ Squints @12:42 The Mess is a great track! I forgot about that one, due for a fresh listen! I used to spin that one all the time - It was on the "Red Rose Speedway" label, I had the 45 and later got the album for Christmas on vinyl.
	12:44pm Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:43 Yep. Some acts are like that. Still boggles my mind that The Rascals' "What Is The Reason?' was not even that but consigned to an LP track.
	12:45pm clarke: oh man, that Wiretroop - Bremner show ought to be fantastic!
	12:45pm Squints: ↳ Song: "Mississippi" by "Cactus Blossoms, The" This is the number they played on Twin Peaks. I was entranced. I thought all their stuff was this moody until Michael started playing other stuff from the record.
	12:47pm clarke: the only time i ever skipped school was to take the streetcar down to the french quarter to get paul mccartney's autograph. he didn't sign any autographs, but shook my hand and talked to us a bit.
	12:47pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Squints @12:44 So many shoulda-been hits with the Rascals. "Love is a Beautiful Thing" for one...
	12:47pm Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:47 "Go GET it, now!"
	12:47pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "Mississippi" by "Cactus Blossoms, The" The chances of getting a song on the Twin Peaks soundtracks were greatly enhanced by featuring a baritone guitar and/or a low guitar with amp tremolo.
	12:48pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:47 That's pretty poetic - the first part anyway.
	12:48pm Squints: ↳ clarke @12:47 "Remember that? That was great."
	12:49pm Squints: ↳ gf2002 @12:47 Without doubt. "Wicked Game" was in that same vein and I thought that's who Chris Isaak was. Then I dove into the records and was happy they were a wee bouncier.
	12:49pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:48 of course, macca was in town recording with allan toussaint!
	12:50pm Listener Baby: ↳ gf2002 @12:47 100% True!
	12:50pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:49 So much genius in one place - amazing the room didn't just explode.
	12:51pm egould: Thanks, Michael. Thanks, Cactus Blossoms. Go Bucks!
	12:51pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:50 one of us kids was tipped that they left their hotel (The Monteleone) at noon, every day. we wait outside.
	12:52pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Something Inside Me" by "Slim Harpo" Harpo reminds of the time three friends of mine were the Marx Bros. for Halloween. Lemme tell ya, it's not easy being Chico.
	12:52pm Hubig Pie: ↳ clarke @12:49 So that wasn't when the Beatles played in City Park.
	12:52pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Boomerang (live for WFMU at Magic Door)" by "Cact... The guitar on Boomerang (Live) reminds me of The Volebeats Sky and the Ocean
	12:53pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:51 Now that's a nice joint. Great barber too!
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:52 no - but i 'saw' that, too! tad gormley stadium.
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:53 the hotel? yes: amazing!
	12:54pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, MS!
	12:55pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "Something Inside Me" by "Slim Harpo" I really like blues sung with this kind of voice versus the expected gruff/gravel kind of blues singing. It's funny it reminds me of Blind Owl Wilson singing with Canned Heat, I was just watching their appearance on Playboy After Dark on YT last night and Wilson's guitar solo on "Turpentine Moan" is incredible, one of my favorites all-time
	12:56pm clarke: ever get the feelin' you been cactus'd? good nite.
	12:56pm money&pain: Fakebook! One of my favorite albums
	12:56pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Here Comes My Baby" by "Yo La Tengo" No bad versions
	12:57pm JG: ↳ Song: "Here Comes My Baby" by "Yo La Tengo" What is the original? Tremeloes?
	12:57pm rich the greeb: That first cat Stevens album is 🔥 as is this cover version
	12:57pm clarke: cat stevems
	12:57pm Squints: ↳ PatrickMC @12:56 Never ever.
	12:58pm money&pain: yes!
	12:58pm Hughie Considine: ↳ gf2002 @12:55 There's almost a spooky quality to a softer, higher blues voice. Al was a fascinating, troubled guy. Interesting details about him in the John Fahey biography Dance of Death.
	12:58pm rich the greeb: Tremeloes had the hit but it’s a cat Stevens jam
	12:58pm clarke: yeah i won!
	12:58pm Marie in Chicago: I think Wendy's has really gone down in quality over the years
	12:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ JG @12:57 CatStevens but Tremoloes own it ?
	12:58pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "The Rocktober News Department" by "Whipper Brothe... 🧡
	12:58pm clarke: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:58 agree!
