Listener comments!
	👻 3:00pm βrian: MorganLee, MorganLee, I say unto thee: I came for the orange. I'm staying for the music.
	3:01pm Colleen: Hey there Irwin!! Looking forward to the show!!
	3:03pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy
	3:03pm brainiac: Next stop ... The twilight zone.
	3:03pm Phillippe Bastille: Gotta admit this Marsalis is a bit jarring after Mary's 3OAK of Sister Europe.
	3:03pm Beetlemuse: yay! :)
	3:04pm Hubig Pie: I came for the Stormville flea market art of the day
	3:04pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): hey everyone!
	3:04pm Listener Robert: I'm trying to pick apart the symbolism on the playlist page. Is that dithering, fingerprints, or a moire pattern? And, though I remember the episode, I can't recall whether it was Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, or Alfred Hitchcock Presents. And then I'm trying to tie it in with the Hong Kong situation.
	3:05pm Phillippe Bastille: I think it's printed on the side of a football
	3:05pm Listener Robert: OK, is someone NAMED Willoughby tied up in the Hong Kong protests? Damn, I have so much practice with allusion-piercing from "Lost", yet it eludes me here.
	3:06pm berbo: Twilight Zone
	👻 3:07pm βrian: Looks like a train depot sign.
	3:07pm Listener Robert: Brian, it IS a train depot sign, for a stop only this guy could perceive.
	3:09pm Colleen: Love Scissor sisters...perhaps because I'm a hairstylist...
	3:10pm queems: i used to live on willoughby ave
	3:13pm brainiac: longing for a bygone era nostalgia for a simpler, kinder world that never was LET'S DANCE!!!
	3:15pm Listener Robert: I mean, it's only within the past week that I realized the allusions "Lost" made to "Strangers on a Train", which adds weight to the hypothesis that the pipeline-to-Alvar-Hanso (phony survivors) and bogus bloodline scams were separate ones whose perpetrators came together on for mutual advantage and to deflect suspicion.
	3:21pm queems: this is better than the original
	3:22pm Irwin: I love this version. I hear "Porganmaise."
	👻 3:22pm Alison Porchnik: It's a pork-based condiment.
	3:22pm queems: tbh the lyrics in this song are kind of inconsequential. this version is so mysterious!
	3:23pm adampsyche: this is a nice song
	3:23pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): this is how i assume ESL people hear standard english pop songs
	👻 3:27pm Mark Hurst: Hi Irwin! Hi all!
	👻 3:28pm Mark Hurst: @queems, enjoyed your call to today's Wake :)
	3:28pm queems: hi mark hurst. i let the guy from apple tech share my computer screen today and i thought of you
	3:29pm Irwin: Hello, Marcus Techtonicus.
	3:29pm queems: also thanks, i love old stuff from dead people's homes!
	3:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...irony is - according to the wiki ...Msr. Chusid is - like myself - a Year of the Hare native... I can sorta relates...
	3:30pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey Mark Hurst!
	3:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...not too bad a wigkey? en.wikipedia.org... ...as these things go...
	3:31pm Phillippe Bastille: me too, queems. our whole home belonged to dead people.
	3:34pm N: loving the beat and her voice, by Shura
	3:36pm Beetlemuse: I love Magnetic Fields! :D
	3:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Right ?
	3:41pm queems: @phillippe my current home did! as well as everything inside of it!
	👻 3:41pm Mark Hurst: Hi Phillippe!
	3:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Reminds me of bits of 'Brain Salad Surgery' by ELP. Really.
	3:48pm brainiac: I thought I heard King Crimson
	3:50pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I also heard that the Doobie Bros have reformed and are touring next year.
	👻 3:51pm Listening Out There: This is The Fall of David Crosby...
	3:51pm Phillippe Bastille: @queems they left a lot of junk in the basement, but nothing any good. The neighbor's dog thinks the place is haunted -- he refuses to go in the master bedroom where the husband died.
	👻 3:52pm βrian: Why, they'll be Takin' it to the Streets!
	3:52pm zopa: hello
	3:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Why hate on the Cros? ...If you haven't been in a band w/ him...
	3:53pm queems: @phillippe my grandfather died in the room where i sleep, but so far my cat and i are ok with it
	3:53pm Irwin: That wasn't hate. It was decided indifference.
	3:54pm brainiac: The monkey's knocking on the door again
	3:54pm dug: steely dan time!!!
	3:54pm mb: Irwin. I kind of dismissed Bent Knee b/c i mixed them up with Wicked Knee. They are stellar.
	3:55pm Irwin: What's wrong with both Knees?
	3:58pm berbo: I missed Bent Knee in Milwaukee this summer. They are just as amazing live.
	3:59pm Phillippe Bastille: @queems that's why I like cats better than dogs. Unfortunately our house has four dogs and no cats. Apparently we have more ghosts than cats. Not a lot of places can say that.
	👻 3:59pm βrian: Any relation to the Genuflects?
	4:01pm Irwin: Ben (Levin) + (Cour)tney (Swain)
	4:01pm queems: @phillippe your house is a very very very fine house. with several ghosts & 4 dogs and whatever else in the yard, etc.
	4:04pm Phillippe Bastille: lol
	4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Do not really know 'Shazam' - for shame...
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: True fine Freakbeat.
	4:06pm Irwin: Shazam is a masterpiece. Learn it.
	4:07pm Irwin: Last Move album featuring vocalist Carl Wayne, last album before Jeff Lynne joined.
	4:08pm Larry O: I’ll send you my edit of “Last Thing On My Mind”. I removed the 60’s portion that didn’t age well
	4:09pm KevinfromBayRidge: "Message from the Country" is pretty good too.
	4:09pm Irwin: That's funny, LO, because I omitted the superfluous part of "Fields."
	4:11pm coelacanth∅))): greetings
	4:13pm Beetlemuse: heya @coelacanth
	4:16pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey Irwin and all! Nice set so far...
	4:17pm coelacanth∅))): hey Beetlemuse
	4:19pm Beetlemuse: That is a wicked look goat
	👻 4:20pm AnAnonymousParty: I almost parted my hair. Does that count?
	4:22pm Irwin: What a godawful song that was.
	4:22pm rina: I just played Almost Cut My Hair on my show Aural Medication on RadioFreeBrooklyn.org...last Friday. what a ko-in-kee-dink
	4:23pm rina: I like it and the Byrds!
	4:23pm Larry O: David Crosby lived in Springfield for a few weeks years ago, at the rehab center on Morris Turnpike.
	4:23pm rina: so mean
	4:24pm coelacanth∅))): i guess a lot of people don't understand that song -that it's a metaphor and that it's about society prejudices and "government" control. absolutely Brilliant song! (and for the record i cut my hair last night)
	4:25pm Fredericks: They took out the E notes/Chords
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: All Boomer RawkStar AutoBios are about the same ...but DavidCrosby's goes to 11...
	👻 4:27pm βrian: Am I allowed to say it was a big day for testimony?
	4:27pm Fredericks: The Gordon Problem?
	4:27pm Beetlemuse: Just googled this cause I forgot, they chose Crosby to be a suregate father over brad pitt. Fun stuff!
	👻 4:28pm Listening Out There: eouio y eae o e ie au
	4:28pm Fredericks: And the I notes too
	4:29pm Fredericks: And the U ones, as well.
	4:30pm Fredericks: Thought I heard an A.
	4:31pm Fredericks: I see an E. What did they do?
	4:31pm coelacanth∅))): haha okay Beetlemuse i'm not a Crosby hater (obviously) but that's just crazy!
	4:33pm coelacanth∅))): (...maybe having a good singing voice was the primary objective!)
	4:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...nothing Roger McGuinn didn't know in an instant in 1964...
	4:35pm Beetlemuse: maybe so musicians seem to make better actors, but actors never make good musicians :(
	4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bowie - Actor. Jagger - always Jagger...
	4:37pm Irwin: Tom Waits does both terrifically.
	4:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Put a bunch of Waits in iPod to shuffle thru ...like - 400+ tracks! Beatles was ~200...
	4:39pm Irwin: Waits outlasted the Fab 4, and outlived two of 'em.
	4:39pm Carmichael: You mean Steve Allen wasn't a great jazz pianist? He sure thought he was ...
	4:40pm Irwin: I doubt Steve Allen thought of himself as a "great jazz pianist." He knew true jazz genius, acknowledged it, featured it, celebrated it.
	4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Digs Steverino.
	4:42pm Carmichael: Maybe it just came off that way, to me.
	4:44pm Mr. Pumpy: Vijay Iyer...nice! Hit's the spot after messing with my boiler...and realizing it's not broken. Dodged that bullet. Thanks for the tunes, Irwin.
	4:45pm Fredericks: Vijay has an amazing drummer behind him.
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Maybe like a lot of rillly smart babies - Allen was opinionated about some stuff. He goofed on RawkaRolla a good bit - like a lot of old skool Jazzbos... But he had on Elvis, Tim Buckley, Blue Cheer !!...& not everybody did that... & - he was perfect accompanist on those Kerouac tracks - & it takes some taste & smarts to do that for a Reader...
	4:47pm coelacanth∅))): it is harder to be a good musician than a good actor, so @4.35 yeah, makes sense of course there are exceptions
	4:48pm Dave Miss: Good show IC
	4:49pm Irwin: There's tons of old kinescopes and video captures of Allen presenting some of the coolest figures in jazz on his various TV shows. He was a champion of great jazz.
	4:50pm Beetlemuse: does Irwin play any instruments? or tried to? Just curious
	4:52pm Carmichael: Whoa, nice take on A Young Man is Gone.
	4:52pm Carmichael: Irwin's an old school drummer, jazz cigarettes and all.
	4:52pm coelacanth∅))): speaking of messing with boilers (indirectly) if you basically know how to install a thermostat but run into a problem don't expect any help from the people at honeywell. ...friendly, but ignorant.
	4:52pm Carmichael: HA HA
	4:53pm Fredericks: Irwin plays the drums very well, Beetlemuse.
	4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Think of drummer John Densmore of the doors in autobio saying 1st thing acting coach said was cut yer hair: Musicians hide - Actors show... Different skills... Mucho impressive BBoys impersonation.
	4:53pm Irwin: I'm not a musician. I play drums.
	4:53pm Santos L Halper: When are you and Dennis D going to do another BB geekout show? I finally finished listening to the first one just recently, was great.
	4:53pm Mr. Pumpy: Damn...he died the day they dropped all the SMILE tracks?! The humanity!!!
	4:54pm tak: loving this new k&a intro song
	4:55pm Mr. Pumpy: @coelacanth∅)))...I'm good on the thermostat front. Thanks for the info though. This is the boiler for my tenants' unit, and it's old and cranky and a constant source of stress for me. Such is life.
	4:55pm Beetlemuse: thanks that is cool they are a a fun instrument. had a set for a few years.
	4:56pm Carmichael: Brian loved (loves) his Four Freshmen.
	4:58pm queems: i love the books SO MUCH
	4:58pm Irwin: The first time I heard the 4Freshman I was stunned by the harmonic similarity to the BBs.
	4:59pm Fredericks: Wasn't Stan Kenton appreciative of the Beach Boys harmonies?
	5:00pm coelacanth∅))): Mr.P i'll just say, when you get a replacement thermostat make sure the wires correspond right away, even if you're not going to use it right away - so you can return it if they don't. this programmable one has no "Rc" and the instructions show no "Rc" in the diagram and says if my old one has both "Rc" & "R:" then i cannot use the new one...yet the woman on the phone said it must be defective because they all have that wire connection. obviously not true.
	5:01pm coelacanth∅))): live version?
	5:02pm darla: nice Valerie June a Star guide
	5:02pm Irwin: Video's on YT. Great performance. Val's got a singular voice.
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not only gets the technical harmonies of BBoys - no mean feat ...but gets their plaintive boyish tone. That's good acting...
	5:06pm coelacanth∅))): thanks i'll check that video out for sure. i Love her stuff.
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Spectrum' blew my mind as a kid.
	5:07pm Colleen: Hey! That's wake news theme!!
	5:07pm Davey Gravy: Yes!!!
	👻 5:08pm Ben in Highland: I can hear Clay in my mind
	5:08pm Colleen: Hey New Paltz dude!!
	5:08pm Beetlemuse: this one song just blew my mind, I was like where am I?...
	5:08pm Colleen: A tuk a tuk a tuk a tuk
	👻 5:09pm Ben in Highland: gimme a slam
	5:09pm coelacanth∅))): which one Colleen?
	5:10pm Colleen: ran into you at Snuggs
	5:11pm coelacanth∅))): ha i didn't think you remembered! ... and how'd you like that Joanna Newsom song,"Colleen"?
	5:11pm Colleen: You....
	5:13pm Colleen: Of coarse I remembered!! saw you a few times here and there on the accu...kept giving you a hey New Paltz dude shout out! haha... I just tuned back in after work...missed the song..
	5:13pm coelacanth∅))): ...i thought maybe you were addressing Ben in highland, which is right next to new paltz, and (unfortunately) where i live now
	5:13pm Aitch: Often wondered where Massive Attack got the sample. Must check that one out properly
	5:14pm CC: Hard to beat Billy on them drums!!!
	5:15pm coelacanth∅))): Colleen i apologise - i never saw a shout out from you before now. honest!
	5:15pm Phillippe Bastille: Oh yeah, Lenny!
	5:16pm Drunken Creep: This is one of the best times I've been surprised with the classic music of Lenny K
	5:17pm Colleen: Oh no worries...so many times I cant keep checking in here..figured you'd see it when you saw it!!
	5:18pm Mr. Pumpy: Spectrum! I loved that album from note one. Tommy Bolin!
	5:19pm coelacanth∅))): here's an archive for that song Colleen. wfmu.org... at 1.32.59 if you're not familiar with Joanna Newsom you might be put off by her voice at first, but at least listen to the lyrics. it's a story.
	5:19pm Phillippe Bastille: @coel and Mr P thanks for the unexpectedly useful info on thermostats. One is somewhere between the Home Depot warehouse and our front steps as I type.
	5:21pm coelacanth∅))): cool Phillippe how fortuitous!
	5:25pm Phillippe Bastille: Yeah, hopefully we can figure out how to use the new one. Even our 20-somethings can't figure out the current one.
	5:26pm Phillippe Bastille: Love this Helena Deland, Irwin
	5:29pm Irwin: This Mayo T song reminds me of Doug Yule-era VU.
	5:29pm CC: Kinda Kinkish!?!
	5:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I was just thinkin' this show is flawless...but needs somethin' goofy or quirky...
	5:34pm Fredericks: Going for the whole thing with the McD and G?
	5:37pm Colleen: This is the best part of the trip
	5:38pm brainiac: Next stop: Willoughby
	5:38pm Fredericks: Took me a long time absorb the fact that Ian went on to join Foreigner.
	5:40pm judy from croton: A pleasure in musicland, as always, Irwin. Coming home from a road trip through my past/future.
	5:43pm Mr. Pumpy: @ Phillippe...no problem. I din't mean to turn this into an episode of This Old House! I've changed a few thermostats out up in my place in the Catskills, but that was before all the smart products. I will say though, to coelacanth∅)))'s point...you ust always make sure the wires match. Even with the old-school stuff...heat/electricity is nothing to mess with casually. Also, thanks coelacanth∅)))...sorry you had to go through that rigmarole.
	5:43pm Phillippe Bastille: I'm off to burn dinner. Thanks Irwin. Bye everyone
	5:43pm judy from croton: Gently introducing a West Coast musician friend to hear MORE
	5:45pm CC: I think that whoever invented what time it is on a clock.. that dictates what time we're supposed to do stuff ...was always an hour too early!?!...
	5:46pm Phillippe Bastille: Thanks Mr. Pumpy.
	5:49pm Irwin: The only part of the suite I don't like: Giles' drums in the closing passages. Overplayed, clunky.
	5:50pm Mr. Pumpy: McDonald and Giles...awesome! And that the lyrics are done by Peter Sinfield! There are other King Crimson crossover elements, apparently, now that I'm reading about it. For all of my KC geekhood, this one got by me. I'll have to check the whole thing out. Once again, thanks, Irwin!
	5:50pm Peter from Dover NJ: Irwin, thank you so much for playing this. A wonderful album.
	5:51pm Peter from Dover NJ: Mr. Pumpy, if you dont have it, look for the Brondesbury Tapes by Giles Giles and Fripp.
	5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah Floyd did this stuff much better (just this part...)
	5:54pm Michael 98145: thanks again, Irwin
	5:56pm Fredericks: Wasn't sure how you'd follow up Birdman. This Bley piece was a fine choice.
	5:56pm Irwin: Thank you all for wasting part of your afternoon with us. Stay tuned for WFMU's Weds. evening blessed event.
	5:57pm Irwin: It was an impromptu segue, Fred. But it seemed apropos.
	5:57pm CC: Jeffrey Hammond Hammond from Jethro Tull did this sort of stuff quite well!!!
	5:57pm Barbara: Amazing show today, thanks!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thanx Again Mr. IC
	5:58pm Fredericks: Love it. Synchronicity.
	5:58pm coelacanth∅))): Thanks Irwin!
	5:59pm CC: nice!!!
	6:15pm Mr. Pumpy: @Pete...I have the Giles, Giles and Fripp stuff. I didn't know of this though. Thanks just the same! The show is over and you'll probably never see this...

	👻 3:52pm βrian: Why, they'll be Takin' it to the Streets!
	3:52pm zopa: hello
	3:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Why hate on the Cros? ...If you haven't been in a band w/ him...
	3:53pm queems: @phillippe my grandfather died in the room where i sleep, but so far my cat and i are ok with it
	3:53pm Irwin: That wasn't hate. It was decided indifference.
	3:54pm brainiac: The monkey's knocking on the door again
	3:54pm dug: steely dan time!!!
	3:54pm mb: Irwin. I kind of dismissed Bent Knee b/c i mixed them up with Wicked Knee. They are stellar.
	3:55pm Irwin: What's wrong with both Knees?
	3:58pm berbo: I missed Bent Knee in Milwaukee this summer. They are just as amazing live.
	3:59pm Phillippe Bastille: @queems that's why I like cats better than dogs. Unfortunately our house has four dogs and no cats. Apparently we have more ghosts than cats. Not a lot of places can say that.
	👻 3:59pm βrian: Any relation to the Genuflects?
	4:01pm Irwin: Ben (Levin) + (Cour)tney (Swain)
	4:01pm queems: @phillippe your house is a very very very fine house. with several ghosts & 4 dogs and whatever else in the yard, etc.
	4:04pm Phillippe Bastille: lol
	4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Do not really know 'Shazam' - for shame...
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: True fine Freakbeat.
	4:06pm Irwin: Shazam is a masterpiece. Learn it.
	4:07pm Irwin: Last Move album featuring vocalist Carl Wayne, last album before Jeff Lynne joined.
	4:08pm Larry O: I’ll send you my edit of “Last Thing On My Mind”. I removed the 60’s portion that didn’t age well
	4:09pm KevinfromBayRidge: "Message from the Country" is pretty good too.
	4:09pm Irwin: That's funny, LO, because I omitted the superfluous part of "Fields."
	4:11pm coelacanth∅))): greetings
	4:13pm Beetlemuse: heya @coelacanth
	4:16pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey Irwin and all! Nice set so far...
	4:17pm coelacanth∅))): hey Beetlemuse
	4:19pm Beetlemuse: That is a wicked look goat
	👻 4:20pm AnAnonymousParty: I almost parted my hair. Does that count?
	4:22pm Irwin: What a godawful song that was.
	4:22pm rina: I just played Almost Cut My Hair on my show Aural Medication on RadioFreeBrooklyn.org...last Friday. what a ko-in-kee-dink
	4:23pm rina: I like it and the Byrds!
	4:23pm Larry O: David Crosby lived in Springfield for a few weeks years ago, at the rehab center on Morris Turnpike.
	4:23pm rina: so mean
	4:24pm coelacanth∅))): i guess a lot of people don't understand that song -that it's a metaphor and that it's about society prejudices and "government" control. absolutely Brilliant song! (and for the record i cut my hair last night)
	4:25pm Fredericks: They took out the E notes/Chords
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: All Boomer RawkStar AutoBios are about the same ...but DavidCrosby's goes to 11...
	👻 4:27pm βrian: Am I allowed to say it was a big day for testimony?
	4:27pm Fredericks: The Gordon Problem?
	4:27pm Beetlemuse: Just googled this cause I forgot, they chose Crosby to be a suregate father over brad pitt. Fun stuff!
	👻 4:28pm Listening Out There: eouio y eae o e ie au
	4:28pm Fredericks: And the I notes too
	4:29pm Fredericks: And the U ones, as well.
	4:30pm Fredericks: Thought I heard an A.
	4:31pm Fredericks: I see an E. What did they do?
	4:31pm coelacanth∅))): haha okay Beetlemuse i'm not a Crosby hater (obviously) but that's just crazy!
	4:33pm coelacanth∅))): (...maybe having a good singing voice was the primary objective!)
	4:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...nothing Roger McGuinn didn't know in an instant in 1964...
	4:35pm Beetlemuse: maybe so musicians seem to make better actors, but actors never make good musicians :(
	4:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bowie - Actor. Jagger - always Jagger...
	4:37pm Irwin: Tom Waits does both terrifically.
	4:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Put a bunch of Waits in iPod to shuffle thru ...like - 400+ tracks! Beatles was ~200...
	4:39pm Irwin: Waits outlasted the Fab 4, and outlived two of 'em.
	4:39pm Carmichael: You mean Steve Allen wasn't a great jazz pianist? He sure thought he was ...
	4:40pm Irwin: I doubt Steve Allen thought of himself as a "great jazz pianist." He knew true jazz genius, acknowledged it, featured it, celebrated it.
	4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Digs Steverino.
	4:42pm Carmichael: Maybe it just came off that way, to me.
	4:44pm Mr. Pumpy: Vijay Iyer...nice! Hit's the spot after messing with my boiler...and realizing it's not broken. Dodged that bullet. Thanks for the tunes, Irwin.
	4:45pm Fredericks: Vijay has an amazing drummer behind him.
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Maybe like a lot of rillly smart babies - Allen was opinionated about some stuff. He goofed on RawkaRolla a good bit - like a lot of old skool Jazzbos... But he had on Elvis, Tim Buckley, Blue Cheer !!...& not everybody did that... & - he was perfect accompanist on those Kerouac tracks - & it takes some taste & smarts to do that for a Reader...
	4:47pm coelacanth∅))): it is harder to be a good musician than a good actor, so @4.35 yeah, makes sense of course there are exceptions
	4:48pm Dave Miss: Good show IC
	4:49pm Irwin: There's tons of old kinescopes and video captures of Allen presenting some of the coolest figures in jazz on his various TV shows. He was a champion of great jazz.
	4:50pm Beetlemuse: does Irwin play any instruments? or tried to? Just curious
	4:52pm Carmichael: Whoa, nice take on A Young Man is Gone.
	4:52pm Carmichael: Irwin's an old school drummer, jazz cigarettes and all.
	4:52pm coelacanth∅))): speaking of messing with boilers (indirectly) if you basically know how to install a thermostat but run into a problem don't expect any help from the people at honeywell. ...friendly, but ignorant.
	4:52pm Carmichael: HA HA
	4:53pm Fredericks: Irwin plays the drums very well, Beetlemuse.
	4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Think of drummer John Densmore of the doors in autobio saying 1st thing acting coach said was cut yer hair: Musicians hide - Actors show... Different skills... Mucho impressive BBoys impersonation.
	4:53pm Irwin: I'm not a musician. I play drums.
	4:53pm Santos L Halper: When are you and Dennis D going to do another BB geekout show? I finally finished listening to the first one just recently, was great.
	4:53pm Mr. Pumpy: Damn...he died the day they dropped all the SMILE tracks?! The humanity!!!
	4:54pm tak: loving this new k&a intro song
	4:55pm Mr. Pumpy: @coelacanth∅)))...I'm good on the thermostat front. Thanks for the info though. This is the boiler for my tenants' unit, and it's old and cranky and a constant source of stress for me. Such is life.
	4:55pm Beetlemuse: thanks that is cool they are a a fun instrument. had a set for a few years.
	4:56pm Carmichael: Brian loved (loves) his Four Freshmen.
	4:58pm queems: i love the books SO MUCH
	4:58pm Irwin: The first time I heard the 4Freshman I was stunned by the harmonic similarity to the BBs.
	4:59pm Fredericks: Wasn't Stan Kenton appreciative of the Beach Boys harmonies?
	5:00pm coelacanth∅))): Mr.P i'll just say, when you get a replacement thermostat make sure the wires correspond right away, even if you're not going to use it right away - so you can return it if they don't. this programmable one has no "Rc" and the instructions show no "Rc" in the diagram and says if my old one has both "Rc" & "R:" then i cannot use the new one...yet the woman on the phone said it must be defective because they all have that wire connection. obviously not true.
	5:01pm coelacanth∅))): live version?
	5:02pm darla: nice Valerie June a Star guide
	5:02pm Irwin: Video's on YT. Great performance. Val's got a singular voice.
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not only gets the technical harmonies of BBoys - no mean feat ...but gets their plaintive boyish tone. That's good acting...
	5:06pm coelacanth∅))): thanks i'll check that video out for sure. i Love her stuff.
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Spectrum' blew my mind as a kid.
	5:07pm Colleen: Hey! That's wake news theme!!
	5:07pm Davey Gravy: Yes!!!
	👻 5:08pm Ben in Highland: I can hear Clay in my mind
	5:08pm Colleen: Hey New Paltz dude!!
	5:08pm Beetlemuse: this one song just blew my mind, I was like where am I?...
	5:08pm Colleen: A tuk a tuk a tuk a tuk
	👻 5:09pm Ben in Highland: gimme a slam
	5:09pm coelacanth∅))): which one Colleen?
	5:10pm Colleen: ran into you at Snuggs
	5:11pm coelacanth∅))): ha i didn't think you remembered! ... and how'd you like that Joanna Newsom song,"Colleen"?
	5:11pm Colleen: You....
	5:13pm Colleen: Of coarse I remembered!! saw you a few times here and there on the accu...kept giving you a hey New Paltz dude shout out! haha... I just tuned back in after work...missed the song..
	5:13pm coelacanth∅))): ...i thought maybe you were addressing Ben in highland, which is right next to new paltz, and (unfortunately) where i live now
	5:13pm Aitch: Often wondered where Massive Attack got the sample. Must check that one out properly
	5:14pm CC: Hard to beat Billy on them drums!!!
	5:15pm coelacanth∅))): Colleen i apologise - i never saw a shout out from you before now. honest!
	5:15pm Phillippe Bastille: Oh yeah, Lenny!
	5:16pm Drunken Creep: This is one of the best times I've been surprised with the classic music of Lenny K
	5:17pm Colleen: Oh no worries...so many times I cant keep checking in here..figured you'd see it when you saw it!!
	5:18pm Mr. Pumpy: Spectrum! I loved that album from note one. Tommy Bolin!
	5:19pm coelacanth∅))): here's an archive for that song Colleen. wfmu.org... at 1.32.59 if you're not familiar with Joanna Newsom you might be put off by her voice at first, but at least listen to the lyrics. it's a story.
	5:19pm Phillippe Bastille: @coel and Mr P thanks for the unexpectedly useful info on thermostats. One is somewhere between the Home Depot warehouse and our front steps as I type.
	5:21pm coelacanth∅))): cool Phillippe how fortuitous!
	5:25pm Phillippe Bastille: Yeah, hopefully we can figure out how to use the new one. Even our 20-somethings can't figure out the current one.
	5:26pm Phillippe Bastille: Love this Helena Deland, Irwin
	5:29pm Irwin: This Mayo T song reminds me of Doug Yule-era VU.
	5:29pm CC: Kinda Kinkish!?!
	5:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I was just thinkin' this show is flawless...but needs somethin' goofy or quirky...
	5:34pm Fredericks: Going for the whole thing with the McD and G?
	5:37pm Colleen: This is the best part of the trip
	5:38pm brainiac: Next stop: Willoughby
	5:38pm Fredericks: Took me a long time absorb the fact that Ian went on to join Foreigner.
	5:40pm judy from croton: A pleasure in musicland, as always, Irwin. Coming home from a road trip through my past/future.
	5:43pm Mr. Pumpy: @ Phillippe...no problem. I din't mean to turn this into an episode of This Old House! I've changed a few thermostats out up in my place in the Catskills, but that was before all the smart products. I will say though, to coelacanth∅)))'s point...you ust always make sure the wires match. Even with the old-school stuff...heat/electricity is nothing to mess with casually. Also, thanks coelacanth∅)))...sorry you had to go through that rigmarole.
	5:43pm Phillippe Bastille: I'm off to burn dinner. Thanks Irwin. Bye everyone
	5:43pm judy from croton: Gently introducing a West Coast musician friend to hear MORE
	5:45pm CC: I think that whoever invented what time it is on a clock.. that dictates what time we're supposed to do stuff ...was always an hour too early!?!...
	5:46pm Phillippe Bastille: Thanks Mr. Pumpy.
	5:49pm Irwin: The only part of the suite I don't like: Giles' drums in the closing passages. Overplayed, clunky.
	5:50pm Mr. Pumpy: McDonald and Giles...awesome! And that the lyrics are done by Peter Sinfield! There are other King Crimson crossover elements, apparently, now that I'm reading about it. For all of my KC geekhood, this one got by me. I'll have to check the whole thing out. Once again, thanks, Irwin!
	5:50pm Peter from Dover NJ: Irwin, thank you so much for playing this. A wonderful album.
	5:51pm Peter from Dover NJ: Mr. Pumpy, if you dont have it, look for the Brondesbury Tapes by Giles Giles and Fripp.
	5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah Floyd did this stuff much better (just this part...)
	5:54pm Michael 98145: thanks again, Irwin
	5:56pm Fredericks: Wasn't sure how you'd follow up Birdman. This Bley piece was a fine choice.
	5:56pm Irwin: Thank you all for wasting part of your afternoon with us. Stay tuned for WFMU's Weds. evening blessed event.
	5:57pm Irwin: It was an impromptu segue, Fred. But it seemed apropos.
	5:57pm CC: Jeffrey Hammond Hammond from Jethro Tull did this sort of stuff quite well!!!
	5:57pm Barbara: Amazing show today, thanks!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thanx Again Mr. IC
	5:58pm Fredericks: Love it. Synchronicity.
	5:58pm coelacanth∅))): Thanks Irwin!
	5:59pm CC: nice!!!
	6:15pm Mr. Pumpy: @Pete...I have the Giles, Giles and Fripp stuff. I didn't know of this though. Thanks just the same! The show is over and you'll probably never see this...
