Listener comments!
	🥁 11:56am Sean in Bristol UK: Good afternoon, Irene, hello one and all, hope everyone had a great holiday, love the photo
	11:57am Irene Trudel: Welcome Sean and all listening in today! Our Christmas was decent enough. Peter's in a state of musical ecstasy today!
	12:00pm Sylvia (France-NYC): Hello Irene, Sean!
	12:00pm Stork: Gettin' in at the front table with Sean in Bristol!
	12:01pm Stork: Silvia beat me to it!
	12:02pm Irene Trudel: Hey, welcome Sylvia and Stork! The S's are first in line today.
	12:03pm doctorjazz: Hi Irene!
	12:04pm Stork: Do I sense what song is coming next? HEY, DOC!
	12:04pm listener james from westwood: How do, Irene and all! The Who sounds all the better when paired with a day off!
	12:05pm Stork: Hey, james!
	12:06pm Irene Trudel: Howdy doctorjazz and james! The Who is definitely a good one for a day off-- or any day.
	12:08pm Stork: Oh, yeah to this RTF track!
	12:09pm Stork: PS: Did it turn out that I knew what track was coming? No. No I did not.
	12:09pm Webhamster Henry: Hi Irene, Peter, Stork and Skeleton!
	🥁 12:10pm Michael 98145: Happily almost New Year!
	12:12pm Peter K.: Did Chick Corea steal licks from Frank Zappa, or was it vice versa? Or was there just something in the air?
	12:13pm Peter K.: I also have a feeling '21 is gonna be a good year. Or at least a better one.
	12:14pm Webhamster Henry: 1921 was a kind of a lousy year.
	12:14pm Stork: THAT's THE SONG!! With Katie on vox!
	12:15pm Peter K.: As I recall, Henry, 1921 wasn't so bad. But I was very young at the time.
	12:15pm Irene Trudel: Stork, I like to keep people guessing.Hey, Peter K, Henry and Michael! Peter, I think I agree on both points about Chick and '21.
	12:15pm Webhamster Henry: @Peter K. I was 98.
	🥁 12:17pm YETI BOB: hi Irene, everyone, loving these Who cuts this morning
	🥁 12:18pm YETI BOB: (still morning here in Central Time)
	12:18pm Stork: Great set, Irene!
	12:26pm Irene Trudel: G'mornin', YETI BOB!
	🥁 12:26pm Sean in Bristol UK: A set of epic proportions, thank you, Irene
	12:26pm Webhamster Henry: On Ruth!
	12:30pm Doug Schulkind: The joys of listening to Irene!
	12:34pm Irene Trudel: Too kind, Doug and all!
	12:42pm Peter K.: Well, "Romantic Warrior" was released in 1976 and "Roxy and Elsewhere" in 1974, so...
	🥁 12:45pm Brian in UK: Hello Irene & survivors everywhere.
	12:47pm Rebecca Lewis: Really enjoying this show! And I love the picture of Peter and the others.
	12:48pm Irene Trudel: Good point, Peter. Hi Brian and Rebecca! Somehow we survived this terrible year.
	🥁 12:50pm Brian in UK: Irene as a follow on when Larry covered your show a couple of weeks & played Jimmie Spheeris, I found this link to a rare live recording from 1974. Never saw him but he sounds good. Also hitting the high note on I Am The Mercury impressed me. Thought you might like a listen. www.youtube.com...
	1:03pm fred: That's probably how I'd look if ever let into the station's record library. Probably my last pic ever as it might take a SWAT team to get me out
	1:06pm Irene Trudel: Ooh, thanks for the reminder about Jimmie Spheeris. might play something by him later. Meanwhile, I just played someone Larry turned me onto-- John Buck Wilkin.
	1:08pm Irene Trudel: fred, the WFMU library is even bigger now, with an added center aisle. Too bad none of us are allowed in to access it since the lockdown. I gotta rely on the KeepTru music collection, which is also (thankfully) pretty substantial.
	1:11pm Constant Follower: Late to the party. Hey Irene, All!
	1:17pm Peter K.: Shawn Phillips lived in South Africa for quite a while but has lived in Louisville since 2016. And yeah, that hair!
	1:23pm Peter K.: John Buck Wilkin is the son of Marijohn Wilkin, a prolific country songwriter whose compositions include "Long Black Veil." Bizarrely, he was also the lead singer of Ronny and the Daytonas, the Beach Boys soundalike band best known for "GTO."
	1:26pm Irene Trudel: Thanks Peter! Glad I was right about Phillips' South Africa connection. I think Guitarist Guy Buttery was a friend of his when he lived there. I also forgot to mention Wilkin collaborated with Kris Kristofferson on a few tunes on this album.
	1:27pm Irene Trudel: Hey Constant Follower! The party here is ongoing.
	1:41pm Constant Follower: So it seems! Love that Durutti Column Prayer. Christmas this year was a vinyl extraveganza - including a couple of Vini albums.
	1:42pm Stork: Haco!
	1:43pm Sylvia (France-NYC): that's some pretty music
	1:43pm Irene Trudel: Can't go wrong with Vini Riley releases!
	1:53pm Webhamster Henry: These early Jonis are pretty amazing.
	🥁 1:54pm Brian in UK: Irene, is this part of the new Joni releases?
	2:01pm Irene Trudel: Yes, Brian, that Joni track is on the new compilation of early works. Haven't had a chance to digest it all yet. What we've heard is really great so far.
	🥁 2:08pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Good morning-ish, Irene! Getting a late start here but have been tuned in for that last terrific set, at least!
	2:10pm Irene Trudel: Glad you're here, Summer and Michael and Sylvia! Listening is the most essential part, no comments necessary!
	2:14pm Stork: Listen Listen goes all the way down in me blackened little soul, and comes back with pizza.
	2:16pm Cronbat: Howdy, Irene, and all!
	🥁 2:17pm Brian in UK: Irene, oh yes, hope you enjoy the link.

	2:41pm chresti: Hi Irene! Got a rain day to-day, yay. fred, it's snowing in the mountains.

	🥁 2:55pm Sean in Bristol UK: Kurt Rosenwinkel most definitely rocks my boat, me thinks the rest of the album is worth investigating
	2:56pm Constant Follower: Thanks for the great show Irene! :)
	2:56pm Irene Trudel: Thanks to you all for listening in today and always! It's been great to return to a regular show this year-- one of the few things I can be grateful for in 2020.

Mon. Nov 25th, Noon - 3pm: Bipolar Explorer (More info...)
With the release of their 12th album, Bipolar Explorer continues their beautiful tradition of dream-pop songs and landscapes. "Memories of the Sky" was in part inspired by a Paris exhibition of the works of Louis Janmot, and the reoccurring imagery of protective angels. Frontman Michael Serafin-Wells, along with vocalist/keyboardist Sylvia Solanas visiting from France, recorded a gorgeous live set for Irene.
