	9:14pm JetBoy of Brooklyn: I think it’s safe to say David rescued Iggy from - well - trouble in life, drugs n career
	9:15pm prudy: love Low but it tends to make me depressed. I think Scary Monsters is one of the best records of all time.

	9:17pm JetBoy of Brooklyn: Well said Tome!
	9:18pm steveL: “When you’re a boy “ performance was pretty damned loose, which adds to it, of course.
	9:22pm steveL: How was the last visit four years ago?
	9:29pm V Priceless: @ steveL - great! Its archived, of course
	9:31pm steveL: VP: Thanks! Actually, I heard it, but was amazed at how quickly the time passed.
	9:33pm V Priceless: same here!
	9:33pm prudy: up the hill backwards...Yay!
	9:35pm prudy: album version much more intense.
	9:37pm steveL: Was Scary Monsters one of the masterpieces, or is it just a favorite memory of mine. Discuss.
	9:39pm prudy: SM is masterpiece. Percussion, writing, Fripp, etc
	9:40pm JakeGould: @steveL: I LOVE SCARY MONSTERS!!!
	9:42pm prudy: interesting add on to low...goes with the mood..love it but where's the bottom?
	9:44pm On the Yazoo: Don't forget the "Little Drummer Boy" duet with Bing Crosby
	9:45pm efd: too seasonal!
	9:45pm aratuk: My friend is demanding an explanation for why there is so much David Bowie being played. "When did he die?" He died in January, was born in January too, so that's not it…
	9:46pm aratuk: I see that there is an explanation on the playlist. Whew!
	9:47pm prudy: please don't play drummer boy...OY!
	9:47pm davefromtoronto: there's an incredible version of golden years on youtube with isolated vocals ya'll should check out.
	9:49pm aratuk: Oh, I have O'Leary's book 'Rebel Rebel', already! I'll have to get this one too.
	9:53pm johnk77: to drive in to w. berlin in the 80s transit strasse or fly
	10:00pm Philthy woman: Listening to music alone and with others Opening the url and finding what’s on ‘FMU Eating poplars These are a few of my favorite things
	10:01pm Tome: bit.ly... < from "soundonsound"
	10:08pm prudy: yep not the Continental I know. Signing off..enjoy the night! Thanks so much for great show!
	10:08pm patrick321: In the early 80s the Continental was an after hours club in the west 30s that was packed after the regular clubs closed
	10:11pm patrick321: There was a fairly large side room that served to give celebs some privacy. There was a lot of strange mixtures. I remember standing in a small group that included Vitas Gerulaitis and Lenny Kaye.
	10:12pm Andrew S: great interview. I thought "Modern Love" was the high achievement on that record though. Can see why Bowie dug lets dance, id like to hear his thoughts on modern love.
	10:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: I thought it was so cool that Stevie Ray Vaughn had a part of "Let's Dance."
	10:13pm Joe B: hope you play his cover of God Only Knows. it is quite an achievement in awfulness
	10:14pm Figgsrock: New York's in Love is gem from this era, efd.
	10:14pm efd: @Joe B we were just talking about how we are NOT going to play that!
	10:16pm Andrew S: someone gave me shit at a bar recently aboput a god only knows cover by todd fundgren. he acxtually hated todd runfgren because of it. and because he said TR ruined psychedelic furs
	10:16pm Joe B: better choices! loving the alien also a great one from this era
	10:21pm patrick321: Great book, not much of a movie. This tune got lost unfortunately.
	10:24pm PJ: Isolation sounds much more like a Bowie song of this period than an Iggy song (whereas their collaboration in 77 seems more inbetween their two styles)
	10:26pm Joe B: hah! good foreshadowing on the first mic break with time will crawl!
	10:29pm PJ: This mid-80's snare sound - I give up, I'll tell you anything you want to know!!!
	10:30pm mcgreivey: [Rundgren cult member alert...] There's no Rundgren cover of Goo Only Knows that I've ever heard of. There is a cover of Good Vibrations. It's pretty much a carbon copy of the Beach Boys original, maybe a hair more seventies-sounding. Todd does do Rebel Rebel live sometimes.
	10:33pm Listener Paul: Saw Stevie Ray Vaughn open for Marshall Crenshaw and Dave Edmunds in Asbury Park Convention Hall in 1984. I blame my tinnitus on that show.
	10:33pm Andrew S: yeah it was good vibrations my badf sorry. I have that record but havent played ot fo yeasrs. Its the double with one side covers and the other originalsd i tthink. I dont know, was just listeninbg to s diatribe
	10:34pm Lolly: THANK you for this show. I must get both books! First saw Bowie when 11y/o STATION TO STATION tour Boston Garden. Wanted to BE him. Blew my mind (and my mom’s). ♥️♥️♥️
	10:34pm Andrew S: i thought china girl and modern love were the best bowie tunes off lets dance and not a word
	10:36pm Joe B: Stevie ray vaughn gained attention when he quit the bowie tour shortly before it started.
	10:36pm Dan from Delco: I missed the God Only Knows thing, I was watching Taken, starring Liam Neeson, for the first time. What does he do in Taken 2 and Taken 3. Now I’m gonna make a sandwich for my wife so she can take it to work tomorrow.
	10:38pm Joe B: iggy's next record was actually the subpar instinct. then came brick by brick
	10:42pm DouglasInDallas: Finally get the answer What About The ’80s?
	10:45pm Lolly: @Listener Paul Haha tinnitus. I think my hearing loss is maybe worth it from all great concerts
	10:45pm Joe B: yes bust stop, a great great number
	10:47pm Julie M: Ah, this has been a treat. Bowie barrage without having to decide for myself what to play. And a book to put on my list. Thanks, Evan!
	10:47pm V Priceless: Woo!
	10:47pm steveL: Bus Stop. Short and sweet. Tin Machine to Bowie similar to Sugar to Bob Mould. Very strong output.
	10:48pm efd: hi Julie, I was hoping you were listening! Glad you're enjoying it!
	10:52pm PJ: TM II actually sounds pretty good. First record did nothing for me, so I stopped there.
	10:58pm Philthy woman: The walker n Bowie connection...illusive apparent, apparent elusive. Thanks also for bits of tin machine I had no room for before
	11:01pm Joe B: the sound and vision tour was a total mail-in, at least the show I saw. can't always go by a concert setlist, because that looks great on paper
	11:04pm Joe B: the nothing is changed comp, which includes Jump they say from black tie white noise, is in the wall
	11:06pm V Priceless: ‘Buddha’ is great - Sex and The Church!
	11:10pm steveL: Earthling appealed to me. Heathen never clicked.
	11:14pm Joe B: heathen and reality back to back i thought were fantastic. i like earthling also.
	11:14pm V Priceless: I think a big part of DB’s return to form was hooking up with Mike Garson again from the mid-90’s forward
	11:15pm V Priceless: @ Joe B. Agreed. And I quite like ‘hours...’ which seems almost totally forgotten
	11:15pm Joe B: good point VP! also steveL, good point before on the sugar comparison
	11:18pm Joe B: re hours, I tend to overlook it but something in the air and survive are keepers.
	11:19pm Figgsrock: I've had a soft spot for Oustide (esp "Hearts Flithy Lessom") because I was working at EMi then and helped set up a Bowie in store at HMV in Herald Square. We got to meet him and he was incredibly nice to us retail stiffs.
	11:20pm Joe B: wow, that is very cool!
	11:24pm Chop Scott: Hello! Thanks EFD---always listening!!
	11:25pm chris_in_space: @efd, This episode is tattooed into my favourite episodes list. Lots of fun tonight!
	11:28pm V Priceless: @ Joe B: Cool! Always thought ‘New Angels of Promise’ was a keeper too. Vintage Bowie sound, as was ‘The Pretty Things Have Gone to Hell’ @ Figgs - what a great experiance!
	11:29pm Joe B: VP, you have inspired me to dig out Hours starting at 12:01!
	11:29pm mcgreivey: King of Cruelty wwwrrrrocks. I've never heard this before
	11:30pm Motobro: Good Ol’ Oogie !!
	11:31pm mcgreivey: I guess it's not called King of Cruelty. Well, I'm calling it that, and no one can stop me.
	11:32pm V Priceless: sniffle...
	11:32pm Aitch: Must investigate more of the Leon stuff, that was twisted.
	11:32pm Cronus: This is one my favorite Bowie tracks of all time, much better than the Heathen version.
	11:33pm V Priceless: Go for it, JB! : )
	11:35pm Motobro: Definitely the best version of this song... I miss the Uncle Floyd Show. But I can tell you Uncle Floyd was in Boonton last week.
	11:50pm SeanG: abowie!
	11:53pm efd: thanks for listening everybody!
	11:55pm V Priceless: Thank you efd and Chris! Great stuff!
	11:55pm PJ: Great show, EFD. Bring Chris back when that last 5 song EP comes out.
	11:55pm ?: The song with the lyric "King of Cruelty" is "Jewel." It's on a Reeves Gabrels album called Ulysses (della notte) -- available on CD Baby. The track features Gabrels, Dave Grohl, Frank Black & David Bowie. Bonus: Another song on Ulysses is sung by Robert Smith of The Cure, who co-wrote it with Gabrels. (Gabrels joined The Cure in 2012.)
	11:55pm V Priceless: abowie!
	12:00am ?: Excellent show: music and your discussion. Thank you.
	12:01am Motobro: Thank you both, great show.

	11:14pm V Priceless: I think a big part of DB’s return to form was hooking up with Mike Garson again from the mid-90’s forward
	11:15pm V Priceless: @ Joe B. Agreed. And I quite like ‘hours...’ which seems almost totally forgotten
	11:15pm Joe B: good point VP! also steveL, good point before on the sugar comparison
	11:18pm Joe B: re hours, I tend to overlook it but something in the air and survive are keepers.
	11:19pm Figgsrock: I've had a soft spot for Oustide (esp "Hearts Flithy Lessom") because I was working at EMi then and helped set up a Bowie in store at HMV in Herald Square. We got to meet him and he was incredibly nice to us retail stiffs.
	11:20pm Joe B: wow, that is very cool!
	11:24pm Chop Scott: Hello! Thanks EFD---always listening!!
	11:25pm chris_in_space: @efd, This episode is tattooed into my favourite episodes list. Lots of fun tonight!
	11:28pm V Priceless: @ Joe B: Cool! Always thought ‘New Angels of Promise’ was a keeper too. Vintage Bowie sound, as was ‘The Pretty Things Have Gone to Hell’ @ Figgs - what a great experiance!
	11:29pm Joe B: VP, you have inspired me to dig out Hours starting at 12:01!
	11:29pm mcgreivey: King of Cruelty wwwrrrrocks. I've never heard this before
	11:30pm Motobro: Good Ol’ Oogie !!
	11:31pm mcgreivey: I guess it's not called King of Cruelty. Well, I'm calling it that, and no one can stop me.
	11:32pm V Priceless: sniffle...
	11:32pm Aitch: Must investigate more of the Leon stuff, that was twisted.
	11:32pm Cronus: This is one my favorite Bowie tracks of all time, much better than the Heathen version.
	11:33pm V Priceless: Go for it, JB! : )
	11:35pm Motobro: Definitely the best version of this song... I miss the Uncle Floyd Show. But I can tell you Uncle Floyd was in Boonton last week.
	11:50pm SeanG: abowie!
	11:53pm efd: thanks for listening everybody!
	11:55pm V Priceless: Thank you efd and Chris! Great stuff!
	11:55pm PJ: Great show, EFD. Bring Chris back when that last 5 song EP comes out.
	11:55pm ?: The song with the lyric "King of Cruelty" is "Jewel." It's on a Reeves Gabrels album called Ulysses (della notte) -- available on CD Baby. The track features Gabrels, Dave Grohl, Frank Black & David Bowie. Bonus: Another song on Ulysses is sung by Robert Smith of The Cure, who co-wrote it with Gabrels. (Gabrels joined The Cure in 2012.)
	11:55pm V Priceless: abowie!
	12:00am ?: Excellent show: music and your discussion. Thank you.
	12:01am Motobro: Thank you both, great show.
