	11:22am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Riffin' At The Bar-B-Que" by "Nat King Cole's Swi... The great Oscar Moore on guitar, and no drums! These early Nat Cole trio records are great
	11:23am Hughie Considine: Funnily enough, I just took a whirlwind drive to and from NC to NJ and cued up a 10-year-old Michael Shelley show on the old Archive Bunker, and it was the one where Todd sends him Cheap Trick's contact info. Historical stuff!
	11:23am James in ATL: Love this Cheap Trick!
	11:23am Space Cowboy: Headed to the record fair...just discovered this show recently .hiding in plain sight love it
	11:23am clarke: bunzuela ist mein Gott.
	11:24am Frank In Queens: Playing the 1% best of all the #1 hits!
	11:25am Hughie Considine: The other funny thing was that even though it was 10 years old, it sounded like it could have been from last week: Pretty Pretty Prya, XTC, country songs about the evils of women -- all the usual suspects.
	11:26am Toothgrinder Tom: @Highie Consadine 11:23 hey now there’s an idea …
	11:28am Rabbitsmokinintheferns: Joe is the best. Super responsive to my stupid questions.

	11:34am Frank Verplanck: ↳ Rabbitsmokinintheferns @11:28 Agreed!
	11:34am Mr. Jones: ↳ Song: "Giant Man" by "James Last" LOL! I'm over the 10,000 count but I don't have this one.
	11:35am common: is it thursday?
	11:35am Dano59: Giant Man -- heard this opening Fabio's show on Thu. -- and we have a guy with a show in Ithaca and Binghamton, Dr. Bartlemania, who uses it as a frequent theme.

	11:37am greg g: The story of Giant Man revealed ! Great interview Michael and Joe M ! Wish J could be at the record fair. Good morning all!
	11:37am Dano59: And someone tell Joe McG: While out trick-or-treating with friends and their kids Thurs., saw an adult in a Yip-Yip costume leading little ones across the street - saying "Car. Car. Car. Car."
	11:38am Avspuk: ↳ Song: "Giant Man" by "James Last" A massive 247 clickystars on the fabio listed version, which is the highest score I've seen
	11:38am JeremyB: ↳ Dano59 @11:37 That's awesome!
	11:39am Dano59: ↳ JeremyB @11:38 he really committed to the part!
	11:39am JeremyB: ↳ Dano59 @11:39 The yip yip intro to surface noise always makes me smile!
	11:41am Ken From Hyde Park: The next time April Fool's Day falls on a Thursday, Fabio can open with the Yips.
	11:42am Hughie Considine: ↳ hifivicky @11:37 haha! Archive Bunker almost deliberately fools the eye! Those FMU people sure know how to name stuff.

	11:51am clarke: is someone going to purchase a record and have it played IMMEDIATELY on the air?
	11:52am Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "Hold Me With Your Eyes" by "New Colony Six, The" Women wrestlers prefer, "Hold Me with Your Thighs."
	11:52am JeremyB: Wahoo!
	11:53am rx "rexy" scabin: Goldenberg Nut Chews are #1.
	11:53am Frank In Queens: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:53 That was our Halloween candy this year. We had a grand total of ZERO trick or treaters...
	11:54am Mr. Jones: ↳ Song: "A Long Vacation" by "Ricky Nelson" and he hates rallies at Madison Square Garden
	11:54am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:53 you had more than me!
	11:55am JeremyB: michaelshelley.net...
	11:55am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:53 it's becoming very clear.. that hallow's eve is now an adult holiday.
	11:57am Mr. Jones: ↳ clarke @11:55 We always include the kids in our sacrifices here.
	11:57am gf2002: ↳ Song: "A Long Vacation" by "Ricky Nelson" A Ricky Nelson song from this era without a solo break by James Burton is like a Goldenberg's Peanut Chew without the dark chocolate
	11:57am Ochre Ogre: ↳ clarke @11:55 And spreading to other countries.
	11:58am clarke: redd foxx used to be in a band similar to the Ink Spots - but, this seems comedy derived.
	11:59am rx "rexy" scabin: Was Reagan governor?
	11:59am Mr. Jones: ↳ Song: "The Prayer" by "Ray Scott" Is there gonna be a chorus?
	12:00pm cristinap: wonder if they meant wallace when this was written
	12:00pm clarke: or more than one chord?
	12:00pm sinner: Hallelujah. Write that name down.
	12:02pm estebangrande: ↳ sinner @12:00 hi sinner, heckuva prayer there
	12:03pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @11:51 that's my practice every Record Store Day...
	12:03pm Kevin Nutt: ↳ estebangrande @12:02 My sista!
	12:04pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:03 or mike should go out and find a record to play right away.
	12:04pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @11:58 you remember Redd's Ink Spots impression on Sanford & Son? the episode with the ring?
	12:05pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:04 why but of course!!
	12:05pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:04 if i didn't care...
	12:06pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @12:05 lol - so damn memorable. and to me one of the funniest bits on that show.
	12:07pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:06 rollo as whipping boy!
	12:07pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "Run, Run, Run" by "Explorers Club, The" I was kinda surprised we didn't go down a little Curt Boettcher rabbithole after Sagittarius .. but this kinda relates.
	12:08pm Dano59: kinda / sorta / a bit
	12:09pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Pepermint Lump" by "Angie" I recorded this onto cassette from the radio with Vin Scelsa saying at the end, "A little oddball thing from Pete Townshend.."
	12:09pm JeremyB: ↳ Song: "Pepermint Lump" by "Angie" This is so cute...
	12:09pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:09 i used to make cassettes with my little mic to the radio speaker, too! ha ha.
	12:11pm listener phat in Lincoln: To the bakery!
	12:11pm Michael C St Lou: ↳ Song: "Pepermint Lump" by "Angie" 🥰❤️
	12:12pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:09 The world needs more "little oddball things."
	12:12pm clarke: bj hunnicut on this cut, too! *bass
	12:13pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @12:09 moi aussi ... until I got the components (in 1984) to record thru wires.
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:13 that's a pretty late date, there! ha ha.
	12:14pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "Let It Out (Let It All Hang Out)" by "Hombres, The" counting the original, this is trying to be 3 things at once.
	12:14pm common: ↳ clarke @12:12 cool
	12:14pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @12:14 i'm a late adopter.
	12:15pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:14 me, too, but not with hi-fi!
	12:15pm listener phat in Lincoln: Might make a bass speaker cabinet today.
	12:16pm clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:15 noice!!
	12:16pm listener phat in Lincoln: That wrong record intro sound just like Solsbury Hill.
	12:16pm Lizardner Dave !: Wake n Bake should do a sound-alikes of this and "Mufferaw Joe" by Stompin Tom Conners.
	12:16pm clarke: cantaloupe girlfriend.
	12:16pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:09 My brother and I did a lot of that, with a Sony Dream Machine and a General Electric recorder. Our grail song, which we finally captured, was "Iron Man". It was played on our terrible local station about as frequently as "Let It All Hang Out".
	12:17pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @12:16 Got a neodymium 12" on sale from Parts Express. It's perfect. Needs a box
	12:17pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:16 was there any college station in chattaboogie??
	12:19pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:16 I was thinking the same thing. Throw in "Canteloupe Island" and you've got the basis for a solid tropical fruits mix.
	12:20pm clarke: it slices, it dices.
	12:22pm gf2002: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:19 And add Watermelon Man, Here Come De Honeydew Man, etc. A nice fruit salad
	12:27pm clarke: and some fava beans...
	12:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: Suzy Hotrod, hurray! 🛼
	12:28pm clarke: GOAL
	12:28pm JeremyB: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:27 Hell Yeah!
	12:29pm clarke: GOOOOOAAAAALLLLLL!!!
	12:31pm JeremyB: ↳ clarke @12:29 Congrats to Michael Shelley!
	12:31pm Dano59: we luv u Suzy Hotrod!
	12:31pm clarke: and liverpool!
	12:31pm Hughie Considine: ↳ gf2002 @12:22 Good ones! I'm adding Jazz Butcher's "Pineapple Tuesday" and "Pineapple Head" by Crowded House.
	12:32pm clarke: i've got a fever.. and the only cure is...
	12:32pm Ciggy: Goal / Ghoul
	12:33pm Dano59: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:31 Nilsson's 'Coconut'? Harry Chapin's '30,000 Lbs. of Bananas'?
	12:34pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Motorhead" Fer a minute I thought this was The Dictators.
	12:34pm clarke: non tiempo por non hombre
	12:35pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Dano59 @12:33 Absitively -- adding in bananas assures you of a solid mix because there are many banana-titled songs, including some biggies by Harry Belafonte and of course Ween.
	12:35pm cristinap: ↳ Ochre Ogre @12:34 a bunch of oi bands used to always cover it, so I had to check, myself lol
	12:35pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Time Wont Let Me" by "Outsiders, The" Wore this sucker out
	12:36pm clarke: what a guitar solo!!
	12:37pm Dano59: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:35 Surely (tho not off the toppa) there's a sangria song to cap it off.
	12:37pm Ochre Ogre: Time and money won't let get to the # 1 Record Fair in the nation.
	12:38pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Dano59 @12:37 Surely there must. I do know of one about a pina colada though...
	12:38pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "Time Wont Let Me" by "Outsiders, The" One of the best singles of the 60's, hands down. The Smithereens did a great cover of this too
	12:38pm rx "rexy" scabin: I loved cigarettes.
	12:39pm gf2002: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:38 Lou Reed does mention drinking sangria in the park, but alas it's not in the title!
	12:39pm clarke: so, the Little Jimmy Dickens version was a cover? hm.
	12:39pm JohnEBGood: The Rolling Stones cashed in on inaudible lyrics ; )
	12:39pm drr: ↳ Song: "Cigarettes, Women and Wild, Wild Women" by "Red I... The lady's voice puts it over the top.
	12:40pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @12:38 Same. I miss them still.
	12:40pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ cristinap @12:35 Oh yeah, a garage classic, even Jimi Hendrix covered it.
	12:40pm gf2002: "Apples Peaches Bananas and Pears" - Unreleased 1966 Monkees that made it onto the TV show but never released officially until the 80's
	12:41pm Hughie Considine: ↳ gf2002 @12:39 He sure does, and he pronounces it kinda funny.
	12:41pm JeremyB: Have fun guys! See you at the fair!
	12:41pm Hubig Pie: Our '65 Lincoln Continental had a cigarette lighter for every seat.
	12:41pm listener phat in Lincoln: My mom smoked Virginia Slims. My dad smoked Amphora Red in his pipe.
	12:42pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:41 We had a 70s Cadillac (in the 80s) like that.
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:41 suicide doors?
	12:42pm drr: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:31 Annette Funicello had "Pineapple Princess". It's awful.
	12:42pm JohnEBGood: Dont you know ; )
	12:42pm Hughie Considine: ↳ gf2002 @12:40 I hear what you're saying, but I prefer sticking strictly to tropical fruits lest it all descend into chaos.
	12:42pm rx "rexy" scabin: @listener phat in Lincoln if they weren't expensive, stinky, and fatal, I would still: Camel unfiltered. I still love whiskey.
	12:42pm gf2002: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:42 It does mention bananas haha
	12:43pm Hubig Pie: ↳ clarke @12:42 Jah. Loved that car.
	12:43pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:43 town car
	12:43pm Ochre Ogre: My parents smoked some green stuff in a bong.
	12:43pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @12:42 I don't miss drinking, but I would totally take up cigarettes again if I were terminal.
	12:43pm Hughie Considine: ↳ gf2002 @12:42 It would have to be.
	12:44pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "The Way (You Touch My Hand)" by "Revelons, The" Goddamn, this emblematic of a sound.
	12:45pm clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:44 i'll say!
	12:45pm Stevel: Damn! Revlons. I’m in.
	12:46pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "The Way (You Touch My Hand)" by "Revelons, The" I absolutely heard the Nomads' cover of this one on Bill Kelly's Teenage Wasteland.
	12:46pm JohnEBGood: Nice
	12:46pm clarke: kill the beastie!!!
	12:46pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "The Way (You Touch My Hand)" by "Revelons, The" I hear stuff like this and think it's what Hollywood TV producers heard when they thought "punk."
	12:47pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Motorhead" This is more of a cover of the original than the Kingsmen version.
	12:47pm greg g: Thanks Michael! Yes to the Revlons and the whole show!!
	12:47pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @12:38 Same. I miss them still.
	12:47pm Stevel: Artful segue. Have you done this before?
	12:47pm listener phat in Lincoln: Posts of mine that I thought had disappeared are appearing mysteriously. Lol.
	12:48pm clarke: ↳ Stevel @12:47 he won the Rocktober.
	12:48pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Five O'Clock World" by "Trini Lopez" Trini's guitar was something to behold.
	12:48pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "Five O'Clock World" by "Trini Lopez" The producer to Trini right before this take: "Trini, can you sing this one with a little more emotion?"
	12:50pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: ↳ drr @12:39 I had the same thought
	12:50pm gf2002: Journey
	12:51pm clarke: that was last week
	12:51pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:51 They said I won
	12:52pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Hold On And Pray" by "Nightmares, The" No idea what to think of this
	12:52pm clarke: who is they?
	12:52pm listener phat in Lincoln: I thought I won!
	12:52pm clarke: i don't see your name on the list
	12:52pm Hughie Considine: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:52 It's mislabeled. The Sports doing ... you can tell what the title is.
	12:53pm listener phat in Lincoln: Springsteen meets Elvis Costello!
	12:54pm Dan Ingram: ↳ Song: "Who Listens To The Radio?" by "Sports, The" Catchy #1 hit
	12:56pm Hughie Considine: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:53 They've actually met and sung together. But it was another Angry Young Man c. 1979, Graham Parker, with whom Bruce co-vocalized on record.
	12:56pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "I Want You Bad" by "Skeeter Davis And NRBQ" Wow, would never guess this is Skeeter Davis.
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Ochre Ogre @12:56 it also helps to have nrbq as a backup band
	12:57pm rx "rexy" scabin: Pro or anti Glockenspiel?
	12:57pm Dano59: Bruce & EC joined on 'London Calling' at a Grammy or RnRHoF event. GP & Bruce appeared on the last day of a 'Celebrate Asbury Park' week of shows at the Stone Pony. Grushecky etc. with other ties to Bruce all week.

	12:58pm drr: rockvember
	12:59pm Mr. Jones: ↳ gf2002 @12:22 They only got juiced in it
	12:59pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ clarke @12:57 What is that, nrbq band?
	12:59pm rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, Michael and Everyone. Good accompaniment to dinner prep and other things, I bet.
	12:59pm gf2002: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @12:57 I like my glockenspiel paired with a semi-dry riesling
	12:59pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:58 you WON!! !!
	1:00pm clarke: ever get the feelin' you been cheated at the record show? good nite.
	1:00pm Dano59: ↳ gf2002 @12:51 the concert tickets are in. the mail - no one takes paper tickets anymore, but that's the prize.

	12:16pm Lizardner Dave !: Wake n Bake should do a sound-alikes of this and "Mufferaw Joe" by Stompin Tom Conners.
	12:16pm clarke: cantaloupe girlfriend.
	12:16pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:09 My brother and I did a lot of that, with a Sony Dream Machine and a General Electric recorder. Our grail song, which we finally captured, was "Iron Man". It was played on our terrible local station about as frequently as "Let It All Hang Out".
	12:17pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @12:16 Got a neodymium 12" on sale from Parts Express. It's perfect. Needs a box
	12:17pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:16 was there any college station in chattaboogie??
	12:19pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:16 I was thinking the same thing. Throw in "Canteloupe Island" and you've got the basis for a solid tropical fruits mix.
	12:20pm clarke: it slices, it dices.
	12:22pm gf2002: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:19 And add Watermelon Man, Here Come De Honeydew Man, etc. A nice fruit salad

	12:34pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Motorhead" Fer a minute I thought this was The Dictators.
	12:34pm clarke: non tiempo por non hombre
	12:35pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Dano59 @12:33 Absitively -- adding in bananas assures you of a solid mix because there are many banana-titled songs, including some biggies by Harry Belafonte and of course Ween.
	12:35pm cristinap: ↳ Ochre Ogre @12:34 a bunch of oi bands used to always cover it, so I had to check, myself lol

	12:36pm clarke: what a guitar solo!!

	12:37pm Ochre Ogre: Time and money won't let get to the # 1 Record Fair in the nation.
	12:38pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Dano59 @12:37 Surely there must. I do know of one about a pina colada though...
	12:38pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "Time Wont Let Me" by "Outsiders, The" One of the best singles of the 60's, hands down. The Smithereens did a great cover of this too
	12:38pm rx "rexy" scabin: I loved cigarettes.
	12:39pm gf2002: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:38 Lou Reed does mention drinking sangria in the park, but alas it's not in the title!
	12:39pm clarke: so, the Little Jimmy Dickens version was a cover? hm.
	12:39pm JohnEBGood: The Rolling Stones cashed in on inaudible lyrics ; )
	12:39pm drr: ↳ Song: "Cigarettes, Women and Wild, Wild Women" by "Red I... The lady's voice puts it over the top.
	12:40pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @12:38 Same. I miss them still.
	12:40pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ cristinap @12:35 Oh yeah, a garage classic, even Jimi Hendrix covered it.

	12:42pm drr: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:31 Annette Funicello had "Pineapple Princess". It's awful.
	12:42pm JohnEBGood: Dont you know ; )
	12:42pm Hughie Considine: ↳ gf2002 @12:40 I hear what you're saying, but I prefer sticking strictly to tropical fruits lest it all descend into chaos.
	12:42pm rx "rexy" scabin: @listener phat in Lincoln if they weren't expensive, stinky, and fatal, I would still: Camel unfiltered. I still love whiskey.
	12:42pm gf2002: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:42 It does mention bananas haha

	12:44pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "The Way (You Touch My Hand)" by "Revelons, The" Goddamn, this emblematic of a sound.
	12:45pm clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:44 i'll say!
	12:45pm Stevel: Damn! Revlons. I’m in.
	12:46pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "The Way (You Touch My Hand)" by "Revelons, The" I absolutely heard the Nomads' cover of this one on Bill Kelly's Teenage Wasteland.
	12:46pm JohnEBGood: Nice
	12:46pm clarke: kill the beastie!!!
	12:46pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "The Way (You Touch My Hand)" by "Revelons, The" I hear stuff like this and think it's what Hollywood TV producers heard when they thought "punk."
	12:47pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Motorhead" This is more of a cover of the original than the Kingsmen version.
	12:47pm greg g: Thanks Michael! Yes to the Revlons and the whole show!!
	12:47pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @12:38 Same. I miss them still.
