	9:36am Jeff: Keith Tippett R.I.P.
	9:37am Bob Brainen: Hey phat in Lincoln!
	9:39am ?: Great, great start to my Sunday morning, Bob. Thanks for the correction on the Laura Nyro title from last Saturday, and for playing "Time and Love" today -- not "Time and Place," as you announced it. (As Sondheim says, "Careful what you say -- children will listen.") Now you simply must play another Nyro song next week. I'm trying to think of one with "place" in the title and coming up empty....
	9:39am Bob Brainen: Uncle Michael, great show yesterday on the fab Give The Drummer Radio stream! Came in midway and then caught the previous part in the archives!
	9:40am (Mr) Bill: ? = (Mr) Bill from beautiful downtown Rego Park, Queens, NYC.
	♥ 9:40am Rick from SC: You’re killing it Bob
	9:40am Bob Brainen: Hey ?, oops!
	9:40am Bob Brainen: Hey (Mr) Bill!
	9:41am Bob Brainen: Hopefully in a good way, Rick from SC!
	🥁 ♥ 9:41am wmfromdumont: Can't believe Crimso made it onto Top of the Pops. Crazy.
	🥁 ♥ 9:41am Rich in Bay Ridge: Good morning Bob! Grooning to the muzak this morning!
	♥ 9:42am Dave the Spazz: Morning, Bob!
	🥁 ♥ 9:42am Uncle Michael: Thank you, Bob.
	9:43am Bob Brainen: wmfromdumont -yeah crazy, wish there was still footage, I've only seen a picture.
	9:44am Bob Brainen: Morning Rich in Bay Ridge!
	9:44am Kpx: All right back from checking out YouTube for those doctor theme songs, and I was right. It was Ben Casey that sounded very similar to whichever one of those lost classic TV theme songs it was.
	🥁 ♥ 9:45am wmfromdumont: Bob I think Cat Food is on the youtube.
	9:45am Bob Brainen: Hey Dave! You got it Uncle Michael! Hey...2 DJs in 1!
	♥ 9:45am YETI BOB: Bryce played some awesome Keith and Julie Tippett(s) material yesterday
	♥ 9:46am Rick from SC: In a very good way!
	9:46am Zetti: Gerry Anderson's TV shows had the best title songs.
	9:46am Bob Brainen: wmfromdumont--the footage? Got a link for us??
	9:47am Bob Brainen: Rick-cool!
	9:47am (Mr) Bill: This past Thursday marked 24 years since we lost Laura Nyro.
	9:47am DaveinPA: OMG
	9:48am Bob Brainen: Hey Zetti!
	♥ 9:48am StringOFperils: Hold the pickles. Hold the lettuce. Kill the talent. Won't upset us......sigh
	9:48am Mod Mokka Matti: Good Morning from the PNW! I happen to be working a super early #wfm shift (starting at 5:45 AM PDT), and this is the first instance I've heard your program. It's made for a rather interesting audio backdrop as I slowly wake up today. :-)
	🥁 ♥ 9:48am wmfromdumont: That Hardees ad. Yeesh! Bob, I'll try. I'm ashamed to admit I suck with the copy and paste stuff.
	♥ 9:49am YETI BOB: here's cat food on top of the pops: www.youtube.com...
	9:49am Bob Brainen: (Mr)Bill, yeah I saw that on FB. I'll never forget that sad day. I was crushed.
	♥ 9:50am YETI BOB: Actually thats from some German TV show, mislabeled as TOTP. Interesting clip though
	9:50am Bob Brainen: Morning Mod Mokka Matti! Glad to have you on board.
	9:50am (Mr) Bill: So Mama Cass did an ad for Hardee's. Maybe she got paid in burgers. Now I have a better understanding of that line in "Creeque Alley."
	🥁 ♥ 9:51am Rich in Bay Ridge: I think that German show used clips originally performed on TOTP.
	🥁 ♥ 9:52am wmfromdumont: Maybe I'm wrong. Looked like TOTP set.
	9:52am Bob Brainen: Thanks YETIBOB! Ya know the German shows kept their tapes Beat Club and Beat Beat Beat. God Bless 'em! One (or both) has that crazy blue background!
	9:53am Dennis Diken: Good morning Bob & all! diggin’ the noise!!
	9:53am Bob Brainen: Rich, Cass did 3! Well, 3 variations. We've heard 2 so far...
	9:54am Bob Brainen: Thanks wm and Rich!
	9:54am Bob Brainen: Hey, Denny of yon Den!
	🥁 ♥ 9:55am Rich in Bay Ridge: Apparently that show was Swiss- German show called Hits a Go-Go that played TOTP content
	9:55am Zetti: :D
	9:56am Dennis Diken: fabulous Jim Gordon drumming on Friends Of Distinction track!
	9:57am (Mr) Bill: Bob, I was in my tiny office in East Lansing when I heard the awful news on NPR. I was frozen in place for at least half an hour. Heartening to hear that the anniversary was acknowledged on Facebook.
	9:58am Bob Brainen: Hits A Go Go!? Wow, new one for me.
	♥ 9:59am Andrew in Toronto: Howdy there Dennis! Happy Saturday!
	9:59am Bob Brainen: Denny, can you tell by feel, or know otherwise? Lord, Gordon was amazing.
	10:00am Bob Brainen: The great Tommy Ardolino on this P.J. track!
	♥ 10:01am YETI BOB: Still trying to figure out that clip. The announcer says (in German) "We're here at the studio of Top of the Pops at the BBC", he says this very quickly at 17s and it's a bit hard to make out but I'm pretty sure that's what he says
	♥ 10:05am YETI BOB: Rich in Bay Ridge - Like you said, they reused TOTP clips, and I think they even pretended to be in the BBC studio!
	10:05am Kpx: Did Mama Michelle or any of the papas do any commercials?
	10:06am CalZone!: GM BB & BRAINENIACS! Late to the show this morning, but just in time for Strata East segment!
	♥ 10:09am YETI BOB: ok here's a little more info on Hits A GoGo / TOTP / Cat Food - dangerousminds.net...
	10:09am Jeff: D!
	♥ 10:11am Andrew in Toronto: Geez, I sure miss Tommy in that band.
	🥁 ♥ 10:11am listener 126464: Bob, I recently picked up Anyone Can Whistle cast recording, thanks! Good morning all.
	10:13am JKlages: Cheers, Bob!
	10:14am Bob Brainen: Andrew, me too, but they've always had great drummers. Perrin packs a wallop!
	🥁 ♥ 10:15am listener 126464: Is that a former Individual?
	10:15am Dennis Diken: Hey Andrew In Toronto! @Bob - I do know that it’s JG on that track and I think I can usually recognize his sound and feel, though I seem to discover new examples from time to time. Indeed, I love his style so much
	10:15am Bob Brainen: listener 126464, glad to hear it!
	🥁 ♥ 10:15am listener 126464: Bob, recall you playing it years ago, and just recently.
	10:15am Bob Brainen: JKL, had to start with Enoch track!!
	10:16am bigplanetnoise: GoodMorningGoodMorning!!
	🥁 ♥ 10:16am wmfromdumont: Anything recorded in LA, if it's not Hal Blaine then it's most likely Jim Gordon.
	10:17am Bob Brainen: Denny, he saved The Byrds on Notorious Byrd Bros. Amazing playing, Jazzy when it's needed, rock solid, etc. A truly horrible backstory though...
	10:17am Bob Brainen: oops, JLK!
	10:18am Bob Brainen: Morning bigplanetnoise!
	♥ 10:19am Gina Bacon: Good morning, Bob & all!
	10:19am Bob Brainen: wm for sure, but don't forget Earl Palmer...and others.
	10:19am joechrismorris: chris hillmans new book is worth the read (Time between
	10:20am Bob Brainen: Morning Gina!
	🥁 ♥ 10:20am wmfromdumont: Bob, agreed. Gordon was Blaine's protege and was 2nd on call for jobs behind Blaine.
	10:20am Bob Brainen: Hey joechris!
	10:21am Bob Brainen: I hear some "Yesterday" in this Detroit Strings piece.
	10:21am (Mr) Bill: Bob! Steve Almaas was a student of mine at Hunter College in the early '00s. I lost touch with him about 10 years ago. Thanks to you, I will get back in contact. Is there an emoji for "Infinite thanks"?
	♥ 10:22am mlsgrrl: This is just beautiful, thanks Bob!
	10:23am Bob Brainen: My pleasure (Mr) Bill! FMU reunites people! Steve's album is wonderful! As is Jon Light Klages'! Both new.
	10:24am Bob Brainen: mlsgrrl, glad you like!
	10:24am Jeff: I like Haim!
	♥ 10:25am luka: this Haim song whips.
	10:25am (Mr) Bill: I will check out both albums.
	♥ 10:27am Gina Bacon: I have birdies in the background here now as well! It's like sensurround!
	♥ 10:27am Dano59: that was freakin' lovely. for me, Haim have also just kind of sat there.
	10:29am Baker de Brooklyn: Another brilliantly eclectic show, per usual!
	♥ 10:32am Dennis Diken: re LA drummers, yes Bob, Earl was the man! he gave Hal his start in the studio scene there. in the 50s/early 60s Jesse Sailes played on lots of tracks ("Monster Mash," "Let's Dance"). there are so many others, a few that come to mind: John Guerin ("Hawaii 5-0)," Richie Frost (Rick Nelson), Frank Capp (Sonny & Cher, etc), Frank Devito ("Surfin' USA"), Russ Kunkel, etc
	10:33am Bob Brainen: Gina, these are genuine Jersey birds!
	10:33am Bob Brainen: Dano59, I've listened to that Haim track like 6 times, and watched it a few!
	♥ 10:33am Gina Bacon: The boids of my yoot!
	10:34am Bob Brainen: Baker de Brooklyn, you are too kind. (DMB?)
	10:35am (Mr) Bill: My shikse goddess wife cracked up at "What's not to like?" Not just funny, but no less true than the Pythagorean Theorem.
	10:35am Bob Brainen: Dennis, like the man said, time to write that book! Or at least an essay! An on-line one w/sound examples!
	10:36am nickrhombi: i got to see max roach double quartet live at the blue note with the uptown quartet string ensemble, his daughter... something in the air maybe, ive been playing mccoy tyners inner voices this past week. - love this idea as a recurring theme.
	10:38am Bob Brainen: nickrhombi-thats awesome! I saw a quintet in a Newark bar, w/ Cecil Bridgewater and Billy Harper.
	10:42am Baker de Brooklyn: Yes—DMB. No—I'm not. Didn't realize those were the same gals who did Oh Well—they nailed that sucker. Loved the Disneyland parking lot video.
	10:43am Kevino: You doin' it this morning bro!
	10:44am Bob Brainen: Thanks Kevino!
	♥ 10:45am StringOFperils: Thanks for the above-listed LA session drummer role call. Interesting to consider, re the history of what I'm listening to, and how it got there.
	10:45am gene sculatti: Sounding good, Bob. Just tuned in. I missed Cass for Hardees!
	10:48am Bob Brainen: Hey Gene, the archive will be available soon! I'm digging your shows too-on luxuriamusic.com!
	10:50am Dennis Diken: Hey Gene! Been digging the encores of Atomic Cocktail big time!
	♥ 10:51am StringOFperils: Well, I'm off on a bicycle ride through the dusty urban and locked-down corridors of downtown Toronto now. Thanks again for your distinctive show, Mr. B!
	10:51am prudy: great show Bob and thanks...love Karen Perris...she and the Innocence Mission are otherworldly...
	10:52am egould310: Man the Sundays are jangly. Jangly jangly jangly!
	10:52am Bob Brainen: Thanks StringOFperils & prudy!
	🥁 ♥ 10:53am listener 126464: Hello Gene, another fan.
	🥁 ♥ 10:53am wmfromdumont: Great show Bob, as always.
	10:53am Mod Mokka Matti: Oh, nice to come back after refreshing my coffee to hear the lovely Harriet Wheeler :-) Given that it's been my first time listening in, the whole playlist has been rather enjoyable. Thank you, Bob - I now have another show to hit up in the FMU archives when I can't tune in in real time.
	10:54am gene sculatti: Thanks, Dennis. Dug the John Hawken show; interesting that they had 'Parchman Farm' ready for their first single, then...
	♥ 10:55am Gina Bacon: Thank you, Bob! Bet way to start a Saturday!
	10:55am ?: Great to hear old friend Jon Klages!
	10:55am Bob Brainen: Thanks Mod Mokka Matti!
	10:55am Dennis Diken: @Bob, maybe I’ll do something down the line re LA drummers, but The Wrecking Crew doc is a good resource. Interestingly, Hal played on many early 60s Spector sessions then they had a falling out. Earl played on “Lovin’ Feeling” & I think most 60s PS dates moving forward from that point
	10:56am Bob Brainen: Thanks wm!
	♥ 10:56am Corey: Thanks Bob for the great show! Starts the day off right!
	10:56am pogslammer: Damn, Bob, dropping the sandy Denny Saturday morning let’s get it!
	10:56am Jeff: Thanks Bob!
	10:57am Dennis Diken: @gene, thanks! John has many more stories- to be continued!
	10:57am bigplanetnoise: Thanks for the beautiful wake-up, Bob!
	♥ 10:57am Andrew in Toronto: Thanks for another musically enlightening show.
	10:58am pogslammer: Amazing show
	10:58am Bob Brainen: Thanks Gina & "?"
	♥ 10:59am luka: thank you, Bob. the show never fails to turn a sour mood sweet.
	10:59am (Mr) Bill: This show was better than as good as it gets.
	10:59am Zetti: Thanks
	11:00am Bob Brainen: Denny, yeah but they only mention a few! It's that stupid Great Man Theory! Like there was just a few guys doing it all!
	🥁 ♥ 11:00am listener 126464: Thanks Bob.
	11:00am Bob Brainen: Thanks all! Stay safe!!
	11:01am egould310: Michael is going to have to learn to live with disappointment. It’s a part of life.

	🥁 ♥ 9:28am Uncle Michael: Just sitting here enjoying, and re-sleeving records from yesterday's show. Good morning.
	9:30am That Goddam Todd: Diggin' the music
	9:36am Jeff: Keith Tippett R.I.P.
	9:37am Bob Brainen: Hey phat in Lincoln!
	9:39am ?: Great, great start to my Sunday morning, Bob. Thanks for the correction on the Laura Nyro title from last Saturday, and for playing "Time and Love" today -- not "Time and Place," as you announced it. (As Sondheim says, "Careful what you say -- children will listen.") Now you simply must play another Nyro song next week. I'm trying to think of one with "place" in the title and coming up empty....
	9:39am Bob Brainen: Uncle Michael, great show yesterday on the fab Give The Drummer Radio stream! Came in midway and then caught the previous part in the archives!
	9:40am (Mr) Bill: ? = (Mr) Bill from beautiful downtown Rego Park, Queens, NYC.
	♥ 9:40am Rick from SC: You’re killing it Bob
	9:40am Bob Brainen: Hey ?, oops!
	9:40am Bob Brainen: Hey (Mr) Bill!
	9:41am Bob Brainen: Hopefully in a good way, Rick from SC!
	🥁 ♥ 9:41am wmfromdumont: Can't believe Crimso made it onto Top of the Pops. Crazy.
	🥁 ♥ 9:41am Rich in Bay Ridge: Good morning Bob! Grooning to the muzak this morning!
	♥ 9:42am Dave the Spazz: Morning, Bob!
	🥁 ♥ 9:42am Uncle Michael: Thank you, Bob.
	9:43am Bob Brainen: wmfromdumont -yeah crazy, wish there was still footage, I've only seen a picture.
	9:44am Bob Brainen: Morning Rich in Bay Ridge!
	9:44am Kpx: All right back from checking out YouTube for those doctor theme songs, and I was right. It was Ben Casey that sounded very similar to whichever one of those lost classic TV theme songs it was.
	🥁 ♥ 9:45am wmfromdumont: Bob I think Cat Food is on the youtube.
	9:45am Bob Brainen: Hey Dave! You got it Uncle Michael! Hey...2 DJs in 1!
	♥ 9:45am YETI BOB: Bryce played some awesome Keith and Julie Tippett(s) material yesterday
	♥ 9:46am Rick from SC: In a very good way!
	9:46am Zetti: Gerry Anderson's TV shows had the best title songs.
	9:46am Bob Brainen: wmfromdumont--the footage? Got a link for us??
	9:47am Bob Brainen: Rick-cool!
	9:47am (Mr) Bill: This past Thursday marked 24 years since we lost Laura Nyro.
	9:47am DaveinPA: OMG
	9:48am Bob Brainen: Hey Zetti!
	♥ 9:48am StringOFperils: Hold the pickles. Hold the lettuce. Kill the talent. Won't upset us......sigh
	9:48am Mod Mokka Matti: Good Morning from the PNW! I happen to be working a super early #wfm shift (starting at 5:45 AM PDT), and this is the first instance I've heard your program. It's made for a rather interesting audio backdrop as I slowly wake up today. :-)
	🥁 ♥ 9:48am wmfromdumont: That Hardees ad. Yeesh! Bob, I'll try. I'm ashamed to admit I suck with the copy and paste stuff.
	♥ 9:49am YETI BOB: here's cat food on top of the pops: www.youtube.com...
	9:49am Bob Brainen: (Mr)Bill, yeah I saw that on FB. I'll never forget that sad day. I was crushed.
	♥ 9:50am YETI BOB: Actually thats from some German TV show, mislabeled as TOTP. Interesting clip though
	9:50am Bob Brainen: Morning Mod Mokka Matti! Glad to have you on board.
	9:50am (Mr) Bill: So Mama Cass did an ad for Hardee's. Maybe she got paid in burgers. Now I have a better understanding of that line in "Creeque Alley."
	🥁 ♥ 9:51am Rich in Bay Ridge: I think that German show used clips originally performed on TOTP.
	🥁 ♥ 9:52am wmfromdumont: Maybe I'm wrong. Looked like TOTP set.
	9:52am Bob Brainen: Thanks YETIBOB! Ya know the German shows kept their tapes Beat Club and Beat Beat Beat. God Bless 'em! One (or both) has that crazy blue background!
	9:53am Dennis Diken: Good morning Bob & all! diggin’ the noise!!
	9:53am Bob Brainen: Rich, Cass did 3! Well, 3 variations. We've heard 2 so far...
	9:54am Bob Brainen: Thanks wm and Rich!
	9:54am Bob Brainen: Hey, Denny of yon Den!
	🥁 ♥ 9:55am Rich in Bay Ridge: Apparently that show was Swiss- German show called Hits a Go-Go that played TOTP content
	9:55am Zetti: :D
	9:56am Dennis Diken: fabulous Jim Gordon drumming on Friends Of Distinction track!
	9:57am (Mr) Bill: Bob, I was in my tiny office in East Lansing when I heard the awful news on NPR. I was frozen in place for at least half an hour. Heartening to hear that the anniversary was acknowledged on Facebook.
	9:58am Bob Brainen: Hits A Go Go!? Wow, new one for me.
	♥ 9:59am Andrew in Toronto: Howdy there Dennis! Happy Saturday!
	9:59am Bob Brainen: Denny, can you tell by feel, or know otherwise? Lord, Gordon was amazing.
	10:00am Bob Brainen: The great Tommy Ardolino on this P.J. track!
	♥ 10:01am YETI BOB: Still trying to figure out that clip. The announcer says (in German) "We're here at the studio of Top of the Pops at the BBC", he says this very quickly at 17s and it's a bit hard to make out but I'm pretty sure that's what he says
	♥ 10:05am YETI BOB: Rich in Bay Ridge - Like you said, they reused TOTP clips, and I think they even pretended to be in the BBC studio!
	10:05am Kpx: Did Mama Michelle or any of the papas do any commercials?
	10:06am CalZone!: GM BB & BRAINENIACS! Late to the show this morning, but just in time for Strata East segment!
	♥ 10:09am YETI BOB: ok here's a little more info on Hits A GoGo / TOTP / Cat Food - dangerousminds.net...
	10:09am Jeff: D!
	♥ 10:11am Andrew in Toronto: Geez, I sure miss Tommy in that band.
	🥁 ♥ 10:11am listener 126464: Bob, I recently picked up Anyone Can Whistle cast recording, thanks! Good morning all.
	10:13am JKlages: Cheers, Bob!
	10:14am Bob Brainen: Andrew, me too, but they've always had great drummers. Perrin packs a wallop!
	🥁 ♥ 10:15am listener 126464: Is that a former Individual?
	10:15am Dennis Diken: Hey Andrew In Toronto! @Bob - I do know that it’s JG on that track and I think I can usually recognize his sound and feel, though I seem to discover new examples from time to time. Indeed, I love his style so much
	10:15am Bob Brainen: listener 126464, glad to hear it!
	🥁 ♥ 10:15am listener 126464: Bob, recall you playing it years ago, and just recently.
	10:15am Bob Brainen: JKL, had to start with Enoch track!!
	10:16am bigplanetnoise: GoodMorningGoodMorning!!
	🥁 ♥ 10:16am wmfromdumont: Anything recorded in LA, if it's not Hal Blaine then it's most likely Jim Gordon.
	10:17am Bob Brainen: Denny, he saved The Byrds on Notorious Byrd Bros. Amazing playing, Jazzy when it's needed, rock solid, etc. A truly horrible backstory though...
	10:17am Bob Brainen: oops, JLK!
	10:18am Bob Brainen: Morning bigplanetnoise!
	♥ 10:19am Gina Bacon: Good morning, Bob & all!
	10:19am Bob Brainen: wm for sure, but don't forget Earl Palmer...and others.
	10:19am joechrismorris: chris hillmans new book is worth the read (Time between
	10:20am Bob Brainen: Morning Gina!
	🥁 ♥ 10:20am wmfromdumont: Bob, agreed. Gordon was Blaine's protege and was 2nd on call for jobs behind Blaine.
	10:20am Bob Brainen: Hey joechris!
	10:21am Bob Brainen: I hear some "Yesterday" in this Detroit Strings piece.
	10:21am (Mr) Bill: Bob! Steve Almaas was a student of mine at Hunter College in the early '00s. I lost touch with him about 10 years ago. Thanks to you, I will get back in contact. Is there an emoji for "Infinite thanks"?
	♥ 10:22am mlsgrrl: This is just beautiful, thanks Bob!
	10:23am Bob Brainen: My pleasure (Mr) Bill! FMU reunites people! Steve's album is wonderful! As is Jon Light Klages'! Both new.
	10:24am Bob Brainen: mlsgrrl, glad you like!
	10:24am Jeff: I like Haim!
	♥ 10:25am luka: this Haim song whips.
	10:25am (Mr) Bill: I will check out both albums.
	♥ 10:27am Gina Bacon: I have birdies in the background here now as well! It's like sensurround!
	♥ 10:27am Dano59: that was freakin' lovely. for me, Haim have also just kind of sat there.
	10:29am Baker de Brooklyn: Another brilliantly eclectic show, per usual!
	♥ 10:32am Dennis Diken: re LA drummers, yes Bob, Earl was the man! he gave Hal his start in the studio scene there. in the 50s/early 60s Jesse Sailes played on lots of tracks ("Monster Mash," "Let's Dance"). there are so many others, a few that come to mind: John Guerin ("Hawaii 5-0)," Richie Frost (Rick Nelson), Frank Capp (Sonny & Cher, etc), Frank Devito ("Surfin' USA"), Russ Kunkel, etc
	10:33am Bob Brainen: Gina, these are genuine Jersey birds!
	10:33am Bob Brainen: Dano59, I've listened to that Haim track like 6 times, and watched it a few!
	♥ 10:33am Gina Bacon: The boids of my yoot!
	10:34am Bob Brainen: Baker de Brooklyn, you are too kind. (DMB?)
	10:35am (Mr) Bill: My shikse goddess wife cracked up at "What's not to like?" Not just funny, but no less true than the Pythagorean Theorem.
	10:35am Bob Brainen: Dennis, like the man said, time to write that book! Or at least an essay! An on-line one w/sound examples!
	10:36am nickrhombi: i got to see max roach double quartet live at the blue note with the uptown quartet string ensemble, his daughter... something in the air maybe, ive been playing mccoy tyners inner voices this past week. - love this idea as a recurring theme.
	10:38am Bob Brainen: nickrhombi-thats awesome! I saw a quintet in a Newark bar, w/ Cecil Bridgewater and Billy Harper.
	10:42am Baker de Brooklyn: Yes—DMB. No—I'm not. Didn't realize those were the same gals who did Oh Well—they nailed that sucker. Loved the Disneyland parking lot video.
	10:43am Kevino: You doin' it this morning bro!
	10:44am Bob Brainen: Thanks Kevino!
	♥ 10:45am StringOFperils: Thanks for the above-listed LA session drummer role call. Interesting to consider, re the history of what I'm listening to, and how it got there.
	10:45am gene sculatti: Sounding good, Bob. Just tuned in. I missed Cass for Hardees!
	10:48am Bob Brainen: Hey Gene, the archive will be available soon! I'm digging your shows too-on luxuriamusic.com!
	10:50am Dennis Diken: Hey Gene! Been digging the encores of Atomic Cocktail big time!
	♥ 10:51am StringOFperils: Well, I'm off on a bicycle ride through the dusty urban and locked-down corridors of downtown Toronto now. Thanks again for your distinctive show, Mr. B!
	10:51am prudy: great show Bob and thanks...love Karen Perris...she and the Innocence Mission are otherworldly...
	10:52am egould310: Man the Sundays are jangly. Jangly jangly jangly!
	10:52am Bob Brainen: Thanks StringOFperils & prudy!
	🥁 ♥ 10:53am listener 126464: Hello Gene, another fan.
	🥁 ♥ 10:53am wmfromdumont: Great show Bob, as always.
	10:53am Mod Mokka Matti: Oh, nice to come back after refreshing my coffee to hear the lovely Harriet Wheeler :-) Given that it's been my first time listening in, the whole playlist has been rather enjoyable. Thank you, Bob - I now have another show to hit up in the FMU archives when I can't tune in in real time.
	10:54am gene sculatti: Thanks, Dennis. Dug the John Hawken show; interesting that they had 'Parchman Farm' ready for their first single, then...
	♥ 10:55am Gina Bacon: Thank you, Bob! Bet way to start a Saturday!
	10:55am ?: Great to hear old friend Jon Klages!
	10:55am Bob Brainen: Thanks Mod Mokka Matti!
	10:55am Dennis Diken: @Bob, maybe I’ll do something down the line re LA drummers, but The Wrecking Crew doc is a good resource. Interestingly, Hal played on many early 60s Spector sessions then they had a falling out. Earl played on “Lovin’ Feeling” & I think most 60s PS dates moving forward from that point
	10:56am Bob Brainen: Thanks wm!
	♥ 10:56am Corey: Thanks Bob for the great show! Starts the day off right!
	10:56am pogslammer: Damn, Bob, dropping the sandy Denny Saturday morning let’s get it!

	10:58am pogslammer: Amazing show
	10:58am Bob Brainen: Thanks Gina & "?"
	♥ 10:59am luka: thank you, Bob. the show never fails to turn a sour mood sweet.
	10:59am (Mr) Bill: This show was better than as good as it gets.
	10:59am Zetti: Thanks
	11:00am Bob Brainen: Denny, yeah but they only mention a few! It's that stupid Great Man Theory! Like there was just a few guys doing it all!
	🥁 ♥ 11:00am listener 126464: Thanks Bob.
	11:00am Bob Brainen: Thanks all! Stay safe!!
	11:01am egould310: Michael is going to have to learn to live with disappointment. It’s a part of life.
