Listener comments!
	8:06pm Manana: Really liked that Charlie Rich song. Had not heard it before.
	8:06pm Gaylord Fields: @Manana: He's got dozens of such gems in his catalog.
	8:09pm Carmichael: Heya Gaylord. Lovin’ the Silver Fox.
	8:10pm Marc Francis: ♥ ♥ ♥
	8:12pm Gaylord Fields: @Carmichael: He's among my top 10 favorite musical artists. (Upon further reflection, make that top 5, easily.)
	8:12pm Gaylord Fields: @Marc Francis: Back atcha, friend!
	8:14pm TheNewLexGofer: Jerry Lee Lewis, among others, covered a lot of Charlie Rich songs.
	8:14pm chresti: Hi Gaylord. Lovely selection!
	8:16pm Gaylord Fields: @TheNewLexGofer: As he well should. The Killer is nobody's fool.
	8:16pm Gaylord Fields: @chresti: Thanks!
	8:18pm Highway: Charlie's last album...Pictures and Paintings was a masteriece...Gaylord...thanks for the most beautiful show in the world
	8:21pm Gaylord Fields: @Highway: Thank you so much for the kind words. And I agree that CR certainly ended his career on a high note. That album is a coalescence of every musical direction he mastered.
	8:21pm melinda: hi everyone
	8:22pm TheNewLexGofer: Don't put no headstone on my grave...
	8:22pm Gaylord Fields: @melinda; Hi to you and everyone.
	8:23pm JakeGould: Hey Gaylord!
	8:23pm Gaylord Fields: @JakeGould: Hey!
	8:30pm listener 126464: so good Gaylord
	8:32pm battleaxe: Wonderful selections Gaylord...thanxz!
	8:32pm Gaylord Fields: @listener 126464: Thanks. I feel as if this set is aloft and headed for its destination.
	8:33pm Gaylord Fields: @battleaxe: Thanks! It truly is my pleasure.
	8:34pm JakeGould: Nobody calls old crotchety women “Battle Axes” anymore.
	8:40pm Dean: Er, Jake? You should meet my mom.
	8:40pm Manana: Great soundtrack for an epic US Open final.
	8:44pm JakeGould: You call your mom “Battle Axe?”
	8:44pm Gaylord Fields: Mmanana: Cool! I appreciate it when this show syncs well with visuals.
	8:47pm Dean: I knew that was coming. No, my mom calls old crotchety women "Battle Axe."
	8:47pm Booz: Sigh. Swoon. Tap foot.
	8:48pm Gaylord Fields: @Booz: Thanks for writing the user's manual to my show.
	8:50pm Manana: Syncing like Oz and Dark Side!
	8:50pm listener 126464: syncing with bourbon
	8:50pm melinda: This is lovely. Is it the Haircut 100 guy or is that someone else?
	8:51pm Manana: Much better than hearing two McEnroes.
	8:52pm TheNewLexGofer: You beat me to the question, Melinda.
	8:52pm Marc Francis: I love The Olivia Tremor Control. Thanks Gaylord.
	8:53pm Manana: Bourbon syncs with evthng.
	8:53pm Gaylord Fields: @melinda: It is he. And I can unequivocally recommend his post-HC100 music. He's got that McCartney-esque gift for melody.
	8:53pm Corey: Perfect segue after perfect segue...as to be expected.
	8:54pm Gaylord Fields: @Marc Francis: Glad you dig them as much as I do.
	8:54pm Gaylord Fields: @Corey: Aw, g'wan!
	8:56pm listener 126464: elephant six documentary on videotape thru US Mail makes sense
	8:57pm Gaylord Fields: @listener 126464: Keepin' it real, for sure!
	9:00pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hello Gaylord!
	9:00pm Gaylord Fields: @Wendy del Formaggio: Hello!!!
	9:00pm Siobhan: This whole set has just been delightful
	9:01pm Jinx: i loved that Cowsills track.
	9:02pm Gaylord Fields: @Siobhan: Thank you, dear friend! I'm always happy to have you drop in.
	9:02pm TheNewLexGofer: An encore from the Silver Fox!
	9:02pm sugarwolf: Hello!
	9:02pm Gaylord Fields: @Jinx: Such an underrated group.
	9:07pm gracegold: love cole porter.
	9:07pm Gaylord Fields: @sugarwolf: Hello!
	9:08pm Highway: Were all Richer for your show Gaylord...happy birthday Peter Sellers...check him out as he recites A Hard Days Night...in the style of Shakespeare's Richard III..
	9:08pm Gaylord Fields: @gracegold: Naturally.
	9:10pm Creature Boy: There's nothing funny about the title Gay Divorce , people! A . grow up & B. we're all progressive folks around here so...cmon!
	9:12pm Creature Boy: Sorry. Bein' stupid. But only in a satirical sorta way
	9:18pm melinda: I love Sven Libaek.
	9:20pm Gaylord Fields: @melinda: He's truly an unsung composer whose name should be mentioned more often alongside all our other soundtrack heroes.
	9:23pm John from Florham park: Hello Gaylord and fellow listeners
	9:24pm coelacanth∅: hello Gaylord and others
	9:25pm TheNewLexGofer: Good evening, John.
	9:26pm Gaylord Fields: @John from Florham park @coelacanth∅: Hello!
	9:28pm ian: my friend says it would be funny if this song was called "scorpion's ballsack"
	9:28pm John from Florham park: @Highway I have been Ed turned on to some really great music on this station and have met some wonderful people in the chat
	9:33pm coelacanth∅: chic!
	9:33pm listening out there: Hey
	9:34pm Wendy del Formaggio: I've been listening to a lot of Chic lately. It's lovely to hear it here, too!
	9:35pm Gaylord Fields: @Wendy: We often seem to be in sync with our listening habits. I take that as an honor.
	9:35pm Gaylord Fields: @listening out there: Ahoy!
	9:36pm rw: Evening! I knew this song first because of Robert Wyatt and was wondering if that's the case for most people. I'm guessing maybe not.
	9:36pm Dean: It appears to me that Yvette Guilbert has only been played on WFMU by Gary Sullivan. Let me urge all FMU DJs to promote her work.
	9:36pm Shira: This (Chic) is so good!!
	9:37pm andy the painter: i have to admit, i’ve never heard the original version of this song by Chic....only the robert wyatt cover. thanks as always, gaylord!
	9:37pm Jinx: i only know Chic's "fast" tunes. this is lovely.
	9:37pm Gaylord Fields: @rw: Robert Wyatt's version deservedly was a big WFMU hit back in the day, so that wouldn't be surprising.
	9:38pm Gaylord Fields: @Shira: Verily so. Glad you're digging it.
	9:38pm Gaylord Fields: @andy the painter: Both are stellar versions, if you ask me.
	9:39pm JakeGould: @Dean: I respect your mom and defend her right to call other women Battle Axe’s.
	9:41pm Gaylord Fields: @Jinx: Glad I could refocus your knowledge of the Chic oeuvre.
	9:41pm Wendy del Formaggio: @Gaylord: Me too! Psychic friends network!
	9:41pm patrick321: That Chic tune is so briliant/beautiful. Had not heard it in many years.
	9:42pm Jinx: thank you!
	9:42pm Dean: I confess that I enjoy the words "battle axe." They roll off the tongue with a percussive slam.
	9:43pm Gaylord Fields: @patrick321: You could see why Robert Wyatt would do what's practically a straight-up copy of it.
	9:44pm JakeGould: @Dean: Agreed. But I am still not sure of the etymology of the phrase. Why not “Jack Hammer?”: “Boy, that jack hammer is really at it again.”
	9:46pm Wendy del Formaggio: Curtis Mayfield! swoon
	9:47pm slugluv1313: ahhhh yes what Wendy said above :)
	9:48pm patrick321: I may be the only person on this board who is not familiar with the Robert Wyatt version. #confessions
	9:50pm listener 126464: Make sure to always sigh before swooning and tapping foot afterwards per commenter Booz's user's manual
	9:50pm Corey: The backup singers in this song are off the hook!
	9:50pm slugluv1313: @ patrick321 -- same here! but so LOVE the Chic version!
	9:51pm phat: killing it tonight, Mr. DJ
	9:52pm Gaylord Fields: @Corey: As is Curtis' guitar! @phat: Thanks!
	9:53pm Wendy del Formaggio: Oh my gosh, now you're playing Joe Bataan?! Gaylord, it's like the soundtrack from inside my head.
	9:54pm patrick321: @ slugluv1313 I'm so relieved. And with you on loving the Chic version.
	9:54pm Carmichael: Joe Bataan is always a winner.
	9:55pm Gaylord Fields: Wendy, I am not surprised. (I should take this moment to point out to the listeners that this is not a true story that Joe Bataan is sharing. Just a harrowing urban opera.)
	9:56pm Jinx: enjoyed the show. Best.
	9:57pm Wendy del Formaggio: This Saturday, Joe Bataan is playing the Atlantic City Jazz Fest, FYI.
	9:57pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, @Jinx, and everyone else!
	9:57pm Corey: On the verge of sensory overload with so many of those Curtis songs - in a sublime way. Such an enjoyable show tonight...thanks, Gaylord!
	9:57pm Gaylord Fields: Wendy, thanks for letting me know!
	9:59pm slugluv1313: @ Wendy -- again, same here! what a fantastic show, Gaylord -- Chic's "At Last I Am Free" especially, REALLY smoothing out the STRESS of doing tedious and depressing work right now -- THANK-YOU!!!
	9:59pm patrick321: Terrific show Gaylord, thanks.
	9:59pm chresti: Thanks Gaylord! I'll never call you a Battle Ax!
	10:00pm listener 126464: Pretty World reminds me of your guest spots at luxuriamusic
	10:25pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Gaylord!

Sun. Dec 22nd, 3pm - 5pm: The Unsolicited Return of the Winter Soul-stice (fill-in for Paul Bruno) (More info...)
You can't stop the seasons from turning, and you evidently also can't stop an old dog from performing his one old trick. Answering the teeming clamor of one New York Times food columnist , Gaylord Fields is returning to WFMU's airwaves for a one-off Winter Soul-stice program. In his time away he's learned nothing, so the format will remain the same: two hours of original 1960s soul 45s, and the abuse of an expensive reverb machine for the sake of corny vocal effects.
