Listener comments!
	9:54pm Matt from New Orleans: Roy Head was one of the best live performers I’ve ever seen. He was electric on stage.
	9:54pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi Kris
	9:58pm Kris Holmes: He was incredible
	10:01pm Matt from New Orleans: I do hope that the greatest Co performer ever will be serenading us with his signature tune. It’s unfortunate the Funky Version & Sweet Version are only available on 12” not 7”.
	🥁 10:02pm WR: Hello Kris and all. Somehow I never saw Ray Head except on TV when I was a pre-teen and that is pretty long long long hazy time ago.
	10:03pm StringOFperils: Hi! Great!!
	🥁 10:03pm Candy-O'67: Hey Kris and Matt! I agree! I saw him at the Stomp! RIP Roy! I'm so bummed he died :(((
	🥁 10:04pm Candy-O'67: Hey String!
	10:04pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi WR, Candy & SOP
	10:05pm StringOFperils: Hi Candy-O! Don't be bummed out. Listen to how much fun he had!
	🥁 10:06pm Candy-O'67: This is true, String!
	🥁 10:06pm Candy-O'67: You know, he's from my hometown, String!
	10:07pm CC: Hi y'all... tuning in kind of late tonight...RIP Roy...Life goes on!!!...
	🥁 10:08pm Candy-O'67: Hey, CC! Truth!
	🥁 10:09pm WR: Funny, my brain wants to hear the "hey hey hey hey" right after the first verse. And I imagine a SNL Belushi skit with "dad" Roy Head shouting "hey hey hey hey" at his kids and them rolling their eyes.
	10:10pm StringOFperils: That's cool Candy-O.
	10:12pm StringOFperils: The only famous player I can think of from my home town is Paul Schaffer. Ha ha.

	🥁 10:13pm Candy-O'67: He sure was a killer dancer, Kris!!
	10:14pm Matt from New Orleans: Do you use his pomade brand?
	🥁 10:15pm Candy-O'67: Love it, String! hehe! Archie Bell and the Drells, Moving Sidewalks, Lightnin' Hopkins, just to name a few! Houston is a party place and some good music has came out of there over the years :)
	10:17pm StringOFperils: Truer words were never spoken. Houston's got the heat!
	🥁 10:18pm Candy-O'67: Yeah, String, in more ways than one!
	10:18pm Chris Farrell: Nice set
	10:18pm Matt from New Orleans: And the humidity ba dum chh
	🥁 10:19pm Candy-O'67: Exactly, Matt! That Gulf Coast humidity...it does something for people and music! Ha!
	10:19pm CC: Rick Derringer has channeled Roy more than a few times!!!...:)
	10:21pm StringOFperils: Texas is practically mythical. Just one of those places....
	10:21pm Matt from New Orleans: Rick’s two albums for the then WWF are classics
	🥁 10:22pm Candy-O'67: It is, String...
	10:22pm Matt from New Orleans: I’m just playing. Rick’s work with Weird Al brought much joy to my youth.
	10:24pm StringOFperils: Clicky-starred this installment. This gets listened to at least twice!
	10:24pm Franco Twinkie: Heyho!
	10:25pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi Franco
	10:25pm Franco Twinkie: Matt!
	🥁 10:26pm Candy-O'67: Oh, yeah, String! Franco!!!!
	10:26pm Matt from New Orleans: Franco you arrived just in time for me to stop with my terrible jokes
	10:27pm StringOFperils: Hi Franco! It's smokin' here now, but in a good way! (And Matt's burnin' it down too!)
	10:29pm Franco Twinkie: Don't stop Matt! I've been on the phone talking about insurance policies. I need a pallet cleanser.
	🥁 10:29pm Candy-O'67: That is a fab song, Wigglin' and Gigglin', Kris!
	10:30pm Franco Twinkie: Hey Candy!
	🥁 10:30pm Candy-O'67: Crap, I didn't know he played here right before the pandemic. Did y'all go see him then?
	10:31pm Matt from New Orleans: What did you touch over there Kris?
	10:32pm Matt from New Orleans: Horrendous
	🥁 10:33pm Candy-O'67: I saw Van Halen back in the '80's at the Coliseum in Houston!
	10:33pm Dean: "Hot for Teacher": the best ever from VH.
	10:34pm CC: Ya gotta feel your own pain!!!...
	10:34pm Kris Holmes: Every now & then you got to take it back to the guilty pleasures & it doesn't get much guiltier than Van Halen w/Diamond Dave!
	10:35pm northguineahills: wakes from nap hey guys! puts on some clothes. am I still asleep?
	🥁 10:35pm Candy-O'67: Truth, Kris! Haha!
	10:35pm Dean: Oh, no, it gets much guiltier than VH with DLR. Trust me.
	10:36pm Matt from New Orleans: I was hoping you’d play Driving Wheel
	10:36pm StringOFperils: Nice! Stacks up well next to Junior Parker. Great cover.
	10:36pm northguineahills: I once did a remix/mashup w/ VH's eruption w/ Daft Punk...
	10:37pm Kris Holmes: The guitar is great on this. Wondering which ones have Johnny Winter on them........
	10:38pm CC: Make no mistake Johnny Rick Stevie and Freddy all paid attention to Roy!!!...:)
	10:38pm Franco Twinkie: C'mon, Beck and Inara George did a cover of Hot For Teacher. Can't top that.
	10:39pm Dean: Beck. Okay. Boring rock.
	10:39pm CC: Right Kris...!!!...:)
	🥁 10:40pm Candy-O'67: I agree on that one, Dean
	10:43pm Chris Farrell: @Franco- the YouTube video you have is clever and excellent. I like how it was crafted, very artsy yet simple.
	10:43pm CC: I believe Stevie's big brother Jimmy really dug Roy too???...:)
	🥁 10:44pm Candy-O'67: You know Jimmy is still around and plays at C-Boys all the time or did before the pandemic :)
	10:44pm Aitch: Ween Hot For Teacher www.youtube.com...
	10:46pm CC: Yeah Candy... is it been a beautiful day here in North Texas by the way...:)
	🥁 10:47pm Candy-O'67: Really? It was cloudy and drizzly here in the morning. No sun today at all. Tomorrow I think the sun will peak through...
	10:48pm Matt from New Orleans: I thought we worked on pronouncing scepter. Don’t fall back into bad habits.
	10:49pm CC: We didn't get much sun either but the temperature was so fantastic!!!...:)
	🥁 10:50pm Candy-O'67: Ah, yes, it was here, too!
	10:50pm Kris Holmes: I'm no longer taking language advice from people wo spell "dialled" without two Ls as I just learned the other night!!!!
	10:50pm CC: It was one of those days where you just want to lay in bed and make love all day long!!!...:)
	10:52pm Franco Twinkie: Thank you Chris. I like to know that making a jack-ass out of myself has the desired effect.
	10:53pm Matt from New Orleans: American English is not very consistent with the spelling rules
	10:54pm CC: Without feeling guilty, of course!!!...:)
	10:55pm Matt from New Orleans: Just learned a new Southern colloquialism
	10:55pm Matt from New Orleans: It’s a good name for this song
	10:58pm CC: Joe Tex took some lessons from Roy!!!...:)
	🥁 10:59pm Candy-O'67: That's cool, CC
	10:59pm Chris Farrell: Hee haw! I had the best time in the south. We went to Adventure Island and Discovery World!
	11:05pm Chris Farrell: @Kris Holmes: San Antonio seems cool. My brother is a country western musician (George Jones, graham Parsons, etc) if you wanna check him out: Martin Farrell Jr. (Spotify YouTube) His duo with his partner- Jenna & Martin and they are also on Spotify and YouTube. They have a dog named Roy who is their third member
	11:06pm CC: How much money is too much money???...:)
	11:07pm Matt from New Orleans: There seems to be voices
	11:07pm Chris Farrell: Any amount that distracts your attention-my knee jerk reaction.
	11:07pm Kris Holmes: Ha, yeah, false advertising
	11:08pm Chris Farrell: Lol
	11:08pm Kris Holmes: I'll keep an eye out for your brother's music
	11:10pm Matt from New Orleans: I never asked you. Did you ever listen to the Voices of East Harlem version of The Hypnotics Beware the Stranger?
	11:11pm CC: Man..!.. what a great show this has been so far!!!!...:)
	11:11pm Chris Farrell: Sounds good mate. You might like em!
	11:12pm CC: Kind of sounds like Johnny on guitar right there!!!...:)
	11:13pm Kris Holmes: Matt, I went back & checked it was on the LP (Right On be Free?) but I don't think I listened to refresh my memory.
	11:14pm Kris Holmes: What was the title again?
	11:15pm Matt from New Orleans: Wanted Dead or Alive It’s on the self-titled album
	11:16pm Matt from New Orleans: The NY Times had an interesting article about VOEH recently because it was the 50th anniversary of them getting together
	11:18pm Matt from New Orleans: www.nytimes.com...
	11:21pm CC: Some people just might wake up in the morning and say fuck this pandemic shit..!..it's a good day to die!!!!...:)
	11:23pm Matt from New Orleans: Kris is playing your letters now CC
	11:26pm Matt from New Orleans: Wasn’t there a Checkmates band that used to back up artists at The Stomp?
	11:27pm CC: Ooh ahh...ooh ahh!!!...:)
	11:30pm Franco Twinkie: There was a Checkmates that was on TV all the time on a local station. Funny and loungey. Sonny Charles?
	11:32pm Matt from New Orleans: That was the Ltd one Franco
	11:32pm CC: Yeah Franco!!!...:)
	11:35pm CC: I'm in Texas and I'm voting for Joe Biden!!!...:)
	11:36pm Matt from New Orleans: I saw him at Jazz Fest in my youth. He mesmerized me. Probably in 1986.
	🥁 11:37pm Candy-O'67: I would have loved to have seen him, Matt! You are so lucky :))
	11:42pm CC: I'm pretty sure this is not the group who did the song seeing red again???...:)
	11:43pm CC: Oh yeah!!!...:)
	11:44pm CC: This song goes out to Donald Trump jr....:)
	11:45pm Matt from New Orleans: I’m confused. Wasn’t this on the Chicago Transit Authority self-titled album? So why are they Chicago on the 45?
	11:47pm Kris Holmes: I was wondering that myself
	11:48pm StringOFperils: Probably already under legal duress from the CTA at the time the singles were being pressed
	11:48pm StringOFperils: Not that I actually know
	11:51pm CC: Saturday in the Park ain't too bad!!!...:)
	11:52pm StringOFperils: I liked the second album.....guess that's a guilty pleasure, in light of everything that followed (the other 129 triple albums)
	11:53pm CC: Chicago was in direct competition with Rare Earth!!!...hehehe...:)
	11:53pm Matt from New Orleans: The only 45 on Discogs with those two is a Brazilian issue. Every 45 says Chicago. Maybe it was simply a practical matter of name length.
	11:55pm CC: Great show tonight, Kris!!!...:)
	11:57pm Matt from New Orleans: Thanks Kris. Loved the Roy Head and the dip back into the Cs. I did find a Danish 45 of I’m a Man with Chicago Transit Authority on it. Seems to be the only one.
	🥁 11:57pm WR: From Wikipedia entry on the song: When the band's popularity surged after their second album, "I'm a Man" was released as the B-side to a re-release of "Questions 67 and 68".
	11:57pm Kris Holmes: Ahhh, maybe that's what this 45 is
	🥁 12:00am Candy-O'67: Thank you, Kris! Loved the show!
	🥁 12:01am WR: Thank you Kris. Laters all.

	11:16pm Matt from New Orleans: The NY Times had an interesting article about VOEH recently because it was the 50th anniversary of them getting together
	11:18pm Matt from New Orleans: www.nytimes.com...
	11:21pm CC: Some people just might wake up in the morning and say fuck this pandemic shit..!..it's a good day to die!!!!...:)
	11:23pm Matt from New Orleans: Kris is playing your letters now CC
	11:26pm Matt from New Orleans: Wasn’t there a Checkmates band that used to back up artists at The Stomp?
	11:27pm CC: Ooh ahh...ooh ahh!!!...:)
	11:30pm Franco Twinkie: There was a Checkmates that was on TV all the time on a local station. Funny and loungey. Sonny Charles?
	11:32pm Matt from New Orleans: That was the Ltd one Franco
	11:32pm CC: Yeah Franco!!!...:)
	11:35pm CC: I'm in Texas and I'm voting for Joe Biden!!!...:)
	11:36pm Matt from New Orleans: I saw him at Jazz Fest in my youth. He mesmerized me. Probably in 1986.
	🥁 11:37pm Candy-O'67: I would have loved to have seen him, Matt! You are so lucky :))
	11:42pm CC: I'm pretty sure this is not the group who did the song seeing red again???...:)
	11:43pm CC: Oh yeah!!!...:)
	11:44pm CC: This song goes out to Donald Trump jr....:)
	11:45pm Matt from New Orleans: I’m confused. Wasn’t this on the Chicago Transit Authority self-titled album? So why are they Chicago on the 45?
	11:47pm Kris Holmes: I was wondering that myself
	11:48pm StringOFperils: Probably already under legal duress from the CTA at the time the singles were being pressed
	11:48pm StringOFperils: Not that I actually know
	11:51pm CC: Saturday in the Park ain't too bad!!!...:)
	11:52pm StringOFperils: I liked the second album.....guess that's a guilty pleasure, in light of everything that followed (the other 129 triple albums)
	11:53pm CC: Chicago was in direct competition with Rare Earth!!!...hehehe...:)
	11:53pm Matt from New Orleans: The only 45 on Discogs with those two is a Brazilian issue. Every 45 says Chicago. Maybe it was simply a practical matter of name length.
	11:55pm CC: Great show tonight, Kris!!!...:)
	11:57pm Matt from New Orleans: Thanks Kris. Loved the Roy Head and the dip back into the Cs. I did find a Danish 45 of I’m a Man with Chicago Transit Authority on it. Seems to be the only one.
	🥁 11:57pm WR: From Wikipedia entry on the song: When the band's popularity surged after their second album, "I'm a Man" was released as the B-side to a re-release of "Questions 67 and 68".
	11:57pm Kris Holmes: Ahhh, maybe that's what this 45 is
	🥁 12:00am Candy-O'67: Thank you, Kris! Loved the show!
	🥁 12:01am WR: Thank you Kris. Laters all.
