	♥ 9:06pm luka: stoked to hear you got that jab, paparay. it’s slow going here in VA but what’s another couple months at this point, right?
	♥ 9:07pm loveless: I go back in 12 days for my second shot. I was okay after the first and am prepared for the worst for the second. Glad to have it no matter the outcome.
	♥ 9:08pm luka: in better news, the Ministry show i was si supposed to see in Philly got rescheduled again to Oct. and this time i think it could happen. which makes me also thing New Order/Pet Shop Boys could happen in Sept.

	9:12pm paparay: Greetings to all just chiming in. Yes, folks! Fully vaccinated. I haven't turned green and busted out of my clothes yet!
	♥ 9:13pm radioronan: Good evening DJ Ray Boogie..good on on all those vaxes going around. .got my 2nd earlier in week..
	9:14pm paparay: @ drowsy: Felt my body temperature increase w/ no fever. Was in bed for most of the day. Funny enough, after the vaccine we went out for a pizza. I had a vodka cocktail & some great tiramisu afterwards. Today wasn't so chipper. The arm hurts a little. That will pass.
	♥ 9:14pm TheNewLexGofer: @luka: I hear you. Gave up on my Bob Mould show that was supposed to happen in March of last year and was rescheduled in November. That didn't happen, either. Oh, well...
	♥ 9:17pm Bobby K: This track is serious

	9:20pm paparay: Lots of fun stuff lined up for tonight. Get your dancing shoes on or off!!!!
	9:22pm wenzo llc.: fuuuunnn keeeeeeyyyy!!
	9:23pm paparay: WOOF!!!!
	9:24pm slugluv1313: ATOMIC DOGGGGGGGGGGG!!! good evening, DJ Ray Boogie and Skeleton Crew and Underground Dweller Dancers :) WOOF!!!
	9:24pm paparay: Good evening slugluv1313!!!
	♥ 9:25pm DjLorraine: Breathing exercises included
	♥ 9:26pm drowsy: @paparay glad you took the tiramisu therapy, they say that needs two doses as well.
	9:27pm paparay: @ drowsy: That tiramisu was NO JOKE! Fresh mint leaf at the bottom. Who does that? Left our server a fine tip.
	♥ 9:41pm Asheville Jon: Always like hearing this
	9:42pm paparay: Remember seeing them on the 80's 1 season classic Square Pegs.
	9:43pm miparis: This 2nd shot was not as awful as we were fearing. I could work today while @paparay was napping. I had worse reaction after the first one
	♥ 9:43pm drowsy: I think someone mentioned the Waitresses tune on the last fuzzy glove hour for twist endings
	♥ 9:44pm loveless: Saw Square Pegs recently and it still holds up. Great show and great musical guests.
	♥ 9:44pm drowsy: @miparis - raising my near beer to kinder boosters in the future. glad you are through the cycle!
	♥ 9:45pm patrick321: I used to think she was saying “She’s...so obvious” Really.
	♥ 9:46pm drowsy: square pegs was good!
	9:46pm paparay: @ loveless: I remember the DEVO episode. There was talk for a slew of acts for the 2nd season. I remember A Flock Of Seagulls & Rita Marley were on the list. I would've been ecstatic. There's an article online about why the series didn't get renewed.
	♥ 9:47pm loveless: Square Pegs was ahead of its time.
	9:47pm miparis: @drowsy thanks, it’s a relief! Let’s celebrate with a nice glass of wine when your turn comes
	♥ 9:48pm drowsy: Cars - I LOVE the playing, but the lyrics sound they were written by an AI, every time.
	♥ 9:48pm luka: happy birthday, Ric.
	9:49pm paparay: This was the first song by them I really liked. That intro blows me away. The sound of tap dancing feet. Or just feet walking.
	♥ 9:52pm DjLorraine: Patrick321 She is so popular...is not the lyrics either 😅
	9:54pm paparay: This 12" is a French promo that was issued because of Reality Bites soundtrack from 1994. Of course this came out in the 70's on Capitol Records.
	♥ 9:55pm drowsy: My Sharona was a jukebox smash in the campground of my 70s youth. Under a grand tent with pinball. Where we all went when it rained.
	9:55pm miparis: It was big in France
	♥ 9:56pm drowsy: A version must have been produced for that machine, it sounded so good from one piece of hardware.
	♥ 9:56pm luka: oh this robert palmer slaps.
	9:56pm paparay: This Robert Palmer song was played on WBLS in the 80's.
	♥ 9:58pm swivs: This whole album is pretty amazing...
	♥ 9:58pm Will the Sound Guy: definitely some solid spins tonight Ray, keep it going strong snd boogie down
	♥ 9:58pm DjLorraine: Wikipedia says there are Kate Bush vocals on Games Without Frontiers
	9:59pm paparay: @ DjLorraine: Yes, she does some vocals on that there tune.
	10:00pm paparay: @ Will The Sound Guy: Thanks. Will keep it comin'!!!!
	10:00pm jnif: Loving the soundtrack of my youth played on the radio (well, app now!) just like I heard it for the first time. Thanks, @paparay!
	10:03pm paparay: @ jnif: We need more of this during this pandemic. Some sonic solace as stated by DJ Tom Dash last week. Enjoy!
	10:04pm tom from Boonton: WNEW 1979! Thank you for the sweet memory tunes!
	10:07pm Mod Mokka Matti: Wow - just had to look up in a search to remind myself when Robert Palmer passed - will be 18 years already this September... I can remember first hearing the news from a local radio talk show host on KIRO in Seattle, but had forgotten it's been that long.
	10:07pm paparay: Good ole Stiv taking on a Madonna classic.
	10:08pm PJ: I gotta tell you, Ray, I was a little down tonight, but I turned on the radio, not expecting anything, and I heard the tail end of Games Without Frontiers, then Since You're Gone, and then My Sharona, and my spirits could not help but be lifted. Thanks.
	10:08pm slugluv1313: hah! yes Stiv as Madonna, right down to those black lace tights (yep, i still have this 12" w/pic sleeve)
	10:09pm paparay: @ PJ: Glad I am able to lift your spirits.
	10:10pm Hartwell: i keep gradually turning up volume on kitchen radio. Robert Palmer sounded amazing
	10:12pm paparay: @ slugluv1313: Stiv shared with us a bit too much on the back of that sleeve. They would play the Madonna video at Private Eyes but play TLOTNC version as the audio. It would synch perfectly.
	10:14pm paparay: Did someone say MINISTRY??????
	♥ 10:14pm DjLorraine: Dj Ray Boogie i much appreciated your conversations with DJ Tom Dash. A proper thank you to you both.
	10:16pm paparay: @ DjLorraine: I had a great time w/him riding shotgun last week.
	10:16pm Listener Nat: OOh yeah i like where this mix is headed
	10:17pm Mod Mokka Matti: Old Ministry will always be the best Ministry. Uncle Al just needs to accept that.
	10:19pm paparay: @Mod Mokka Matti: AGREED. He needs to embrace his With Sympathy era. It put him on the path where he is. I'm sure you heard about the jingle he wrote in the 80's.
	10:21pm Mod Mokka Matti: @paparay: I'm not sure I was even aware that he wrote a jingle - what would that have been for? Care to elaborate?
	10:22pm Listener Nat: hahaha i like that you clarified "pre-Under the Milky Way," as if that was all they played :D
	♥ 10:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi! Getting my first shot tomorrow.
	10:22pm paparay: @Mod Mokka Matti: He wrote the jingle for Shasta. " I wanna pop! I wanna Shasta!" It's in his book.
	10:23pm paparay: @ Listener Nat: You gotta let the folks who don't know, know.
	10:24pm Domenica: I got first Moderna on Sunday. I am fine, it was a great experience.
	10:24pm Paul in the OC: The wife & I got shot on Wednesday . Only side effect is sore arm: shot itself didn't even hurt so kudos to the techs on site!!
	♥ 10:24pm drowsy: I am so happy to now know the name of the song/artist. thanks!
	10:25pm paparay: Bravo Domenica & Paul in the OC!!!
	10:27pm Domenica: why thank you paparay. :)
	10:28pm AS from MP: Hey, Ray - your Friday night presence has changed the entire mood - thank you! I got #2 Pfizer yesterday at Meadowlands track - same report as Paul in OC = no side-effects either time, just moderately sore shoulder
	10:29pm Domenica: I had a sore arm and felt kind of fatigued, slight headache. It isn't that different than the flu shot.
	10:29pm Mod Mokka Matti: @paparay: Oh, wow. Maybe I did hear that before, but likely got crowded out by a load of other info/events in my head. Thanks for that info nugget! I now have this weird mental picture of present-day AJ pitching that. :-D
	♥ 10:30pm DjLorraine: I had a respectful and quick Johnson & Johnson with FEMA. I got to see smart young amry personnel of all colors.. Working for us. I hope for the best outcomes for everyone.
	10:30pm paparay: AS from MP. Yes, both of us got that pain in the shoulder. That too shall pass. Best thing was that where we got vaccinated was in walking distance from home.
	♥ 10:31pm zzz: whoa this lil louis is a jam! happy friday dj ray boogie and all
	♥ 10:31pm drowsy: @DJLorraine, that is great. I was angling for the J&J but finally the first actual commitment I could get is a two shot. Jealous!
	10:31pm paparay: @Mod Mokka Matti: Yeah imagine Uncle Al pitching to do a jingle for anything. Dressed like he's in The Thunderdome.
	♥ 10:34pm drowsy: this is cheeky
	10:34pm Domenica: Gotta have Divine's "Shoot Your Shot" next.
	10:35pm paparay: @ Domenica: Next time. I haven't dipped into the Divine universe yet. I will!!!!
	♥ 10:36pm drowsy: for some reason I can see Ranking Roger doing this part of the song.
	♥ 10:37pm DjLorraine: We had a scandal with Ocean Reef citizens getting the vacinne before the intended. ($)
	10:39pm paparay: @ drowsy: That was probably him banging the crap outta that percussion.
	10:39pm Domenica: Was that in Florida Lorraine? That sounds like Florida to me.
	♥ 10:40pm drowsy: I'm all for people with dart guns just hitting anything that moves rn, but people scamming is uncool. In CT it is strictly age-based, there are very few ways to get around that. Except volunteering! Then you get any leftovers that day.
	♥ 10:42pm Mr. Pumpy: Hello Ray and all boogers! The vibes are doing it...
	10:42pm paparay: Howdy Mr. Pumpy!
	♥ 10:43pm Mr. Pumpy: paparay! yo yo yo
	♥ 10:43pm DjLorraine: Yes Domenica
	♥ 10:44pm Mr. Pumpy: I was fortunate enough to get my first dose of the vaccine today. I was already struggling with some right shoulder trouble, but damn! This has been augmented from the shot...me thinks.
	10:45pm paparay: @ Mr. Pumpy: Are you having x-ray vision?
	♥ 10:48pm drowsy: Ms. Williams has so many happy tunes PLUS duetting with Johnny Mathis - that is just so much goodness.
	♥ 10:48pm Mr. Pumpy: @paparay...no. I wish, I'd be able to see is my pasta is overboiling in the next room! Is that one of the common side effects?
	10:49pm johnnysideburns: “Love Is In The Air” is occasionally my morning alarm 😄
	10:51pm soul170: Found it! The listener community!
	10:51pm paparay: @ Mr. Pumpy: It could be a side effect for some folks. I was watching that 70's movie The Fury last night and I was talking with my wife about and brought up some other films like Scanners & Firestarter. Movies where people had powers. Some powers acquired by serums and some not.
	10:53pm soul170: Yes, Ray Boogie. You’ve got me tuning in every Friday. Feelin’ the trax!
	10:54pm paparay: @ soul170: Thanks for tuning in.
	10:54pm paparay: FOLKS!!! I cleaned that vinyl before I played it and it jumped!!! Weird!!!!
	10:54pm soul170: And to your earlier question: received first vaccination shot this week. Sore arm plus fatigue and chills. Active immune system? 🤷🏾‍♂️
	♥ 10:55pm drowsy: paparay that just adds cred.
	10:56pm PJ: I don’t think I’ve heard this since elementary school. You’re taking me back, Ray!
	♥ 10:56pm DjLorraine: That rythem
	10:56pm paparay: @ soul170: Fatigue indeed. I felt a bit warmer than usual. No fever though.
	10:57pm PJ: Correction: it was middle school. Standing against the wall at the dances . . .
	10:58pm paparay: @ PJ: That's the thing with this show. Taking it back like 8 track. I didn't care for this song at first. It grew on me. Like their 80's hit Sexy Eyes.
	♥ 10:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...is this PunkRawk ??
	♥ 10:59pm Mr. Pumpy: @paparay...I hope no one's head explodes at my bidding. However, if it is due to deep-seeded suppression cum aggression, there is nothing I can do about it.
	10:59pm paparay: @ Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Perhaps......
	♥ 11:00pm Mr. Pumpy: @paparay...honestly...me arm is killing me right now. I am not responsible...
	♥ 11:00pm Mr. Pumpy: That's it. He's gone. That's it. And that's that. There was nothing we could do about it.
	11:01pm PJ: @paparay: It’s a good song. It’s funny how hearing a tune you haven’t listened to in years, like a scent you haven’t smelled for years, is a little time machine to a a moment or mood.
	11:01pm paparay: @ Mr. Pumpy: When starts to happen, I'm sure some black van will snatch you up and take you to an undisclosed location.
	11:03pm PJ: @Mr. Pumpy: I just hope your nightmare superpower scenario features Debbie Harry circa 1980
	11:04pm Listener Nat: I love this record
	♥ 11:04pm Mr. Pumpy: @paparay. They are taking their sweet time! I may have to start watching The Fury.
	11:04pm Lawrence: Ray - you are crushing it
	♥ 11:04pm Mr. Pumpy: @PJ...that is kind of you.
	11:05pm still b/p: Always seemed strange that Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show got famous with Cover of the Rolling Stone, which seemed to paint them as loose, amiably scruffy rockers/stoners, then went on -- as just Dr. Hook -- to make such lite 'n tidy pop hits of conventional sentiment.
	11:06pm paparay: @ PJ: Videodrome and a bunch of David Cronenberg films came up in the conversation. Videdrome is just brilliant! Cronenberg was trying to tell us something!
	11:07pm Listener Nat: is anyone familiar with rockers hifi version of queen of the ghetto?
	11:07pm paparay: @ Listener Nat: No. I had lunch w? Rockers Hi-Fi back in the 90's during my PolyGram Records era.
	♥ 11:08pm drowsy: wind up me waist!
	♥ 11:09pm Mr. Pumpy: @paparay. Videodrome is an amazing piece of art. I may have to go watch it now. It's been a while.
	11:09pm paparay: Many screw up the lyric "See me in my halter back!"
	11:09pm cherry1998: i'm always too shy to post, but what up gang. hearing "uptown ranking" such a balm
	11:10pm paparay: And many think it's "No pop no style!" It's "Nah pop no style!"
	11:10pm Listener Nat: *queen of the ghetto, or ghetto defendant, iforget whichis the clash original title, but its the one with alan ginsberg.. @ paparay thats badass, did they eat anything particular?
	♥ 11:12pm Mr. Pumpy: I'm loving this show so much, right now. I feel I could meet my wife here!
	11:12pm paparay: @ Listener Nat: I think we ordered pasta entrees.
	11:13pm PJ: @paparay: I think there are things about the modern world that most of us feel, but at a low level, like an almost inaudible hum, something moving just at the periphery of our vision, that artists like Cronenberg, JG Ballard, PK Dick, etc., amplify and make visible so that we have to face them. Doesn’t mean we have solutions, but it’s better to face them than not.
	11:14pm dano59: Crazy good show, Ray.
	♥ 11:15pm drowsy: @paparay I never did catch 'halter back' for what it was.
	11:15pm cherry1998: <<I am your automated wife>> s/o PKD
	11:15pm paparay: Patti Smith was a big supporter of Tappa Zukie.
	11:16pm Listener Nat: dutty room lol
	11:16pm cherry1998: patti smith got to speak her piece in that recent wiseman doc. one wishes... she... got to talk about, like, dub
	11:18pm paparay: @ cherry1998: Patti has a photo of her & Burning Spear backstage after his concert in Central Park back in the 70's.
	11:20pm cherry1998: ah! I guess since that documentary was about the ny public library, it didn't come up overmuch (post that pic?)
	11:22pm johnk77: nice work selecter did u ever go to s.o.b.'s?
	♥ 11:22pm loveless: @cherry 1998 Patti & Burning Spear patricialeesmith.tumblr.com...
	11:22pm tracy. still in LA: ok, twist my arm, i guess i'll get stoned
	11:23pm cherry1998: @loveless @paparay, amazing
	11:23pm paparay: @ loveless: The very same image. I had that Burning Spear t-shirt.
	11:25pm paparay: @ johnk77: Yes I have. I once DJ'ed a party there for The Night Nurse.
	11:26pm cherry1998: what kind of hat is that of Patti's?; looks like a weird brokerage b/w Adidas ActiveWear and Kangol
	11:31pm johnk77: i was the sound guy late 80s->late 90s amy wachtel very cool:>
	♥ 11:33pm chresti: Hi paparay and undergrounders!
	11:33pm paparay: @johnk77: I attended several shows and events. One of the best was the launch party for Reggae: The Rough Guide book. Loads of famous reggae luminaires that evening. Even the great Coxsone Dodd was there. I had a chance to meet him for a few seconds. One night I also met Sly Dunbar there. Cool guy.
	11:34pm paparay: @ chresti: Greetings!
	11:35pm cherry1998: question from naivite: is there any interesting writing on reggae and dub?
	11:36pm cherry1998: (i'll get the rough guide, @paparay)
	11:36pm paparay: @ cherry1998: There's a King Tubby book recently released. And Lloyd Bradley has a great reggae book called Bass Culture.
	♥ 11:37pm drowsy: @cherry1998 this is not a good answer but a great book - A Brief History of Seven Killings by Marlon James is an amazing story.
	11:37pm JBoogie: hiya Ray and gang! I'm so late I pretty much missed this show, live, but hi!
	11:38pm slugluv1313: @cherry1998 -- i like "Bass Culture" by Lloyd Bradley, also "Rastafari: Healing of the Nations" by Dennis Forsythe
	11:38pm paparay: @ drowsy: Haven't read that one yet.
	♥ 11:39pm drowsy: hey JBoogie
	11:39pm slugluv1313: hah! DJ beat me to it re: Bass Culture :)
	11:40pm cherry1998: thanks for these answers. I had heard of that marlon james one, but the others not at all. any and all king tubby books double-jump the queue
	11:40pm paparay: There's an old reggae book called Reggae International. Great book. Full of great pictures and more. I will post pics of some reggae books on my Instagram new_york_undergrouns_wfmu.
	♥ 11:41pm drowsy: That book is about the time and place and persons but not the music itself. It is just a great story!
	♥ 11:41pm DjLorraine: Rhythm.. i mispelled it earlier.
	11:41pm cherry1998: 'bass culture' is avail on libgen, in case anyone else is curious. this looks awesome
	11:41pm paparay: I've heard about it. Supposed to be a film on HBO I believe.
	♥ 11:41pm drowsy: @cherry1998 will check it - thanks!
	11:42pm slugluv1313: Bass Culture IS awesome, enjoy!
	11:42pm paparay: Here's where it gets real FUN!!!!
	11:42pm PJ: So much great music tonight, Ray
	♥ 11:42pm drowsy: whoa that could be cool
	11:43pm slugluv1313: and sorta related -- The Rasta Cookbook by Laura Osborne
	11:44pm johnk77: selectah on fyah sly was easier to work with than robbie:> i toured with those guys
	♥ 11:44pm chresti: Reggae International is a great book.
	11:45pm JBoogie: ital is VITAL!
	11:45pm paparay: Special 12" REMIX issued in the 80's. I like to buy 12" singles w/ the original version. I popped this one on as a bit of a gag. It's not that bad. Works right after Pop Muzik by M.
	11:46pm slugluv1313: also Reggae Bloodlines, from he 70s
	11:47pm Andres: Hey paparay and all! Not a book but a documentary Stepping Razor: Red X; The Peter Tosh Story.
	♥ 11:47pm DjLorraine: So sweet
	♥ 11:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just not man enuff for Veronica Lodge ...also : she craycray...
	11:48pm slugluv1313: *the 70s
	11:48pm tracy. still in LA: wow. what fun
	11:48pm cherry1998: This PSB edit kills. thnx slugluv! these are what I was looking for, I do believe...
	11:49pm slugluv1313: not a book or a documentary, but "Rockers" is an amazing film
	11:50pm thesecoronalives: ♫ inner city, inner city pressure! ♬
	11:51pm johnk77: @sl1313 strong agree rockers the real deal
	11:51pm cherry1998: gosh, 'rockers' is unreal
	11:51pm slugluv1313: @cherry1998 -- my pleasure! but damn, now i want Rasta food :)
	11:52pm paparay: @ chresti: That Reggae International book was a tough one to find. I saw a place selling it for a lot once. Scored a nice copy off ebay. There's also the coffee table book Reggae Explosion: The Story Of Jamaican Music. A great resource.
	11:52pm paparay: Was dancing in the living room folks!
	11:53pm paparay: There is a Rockers book that was issued. Good book. Lots of photos of when they shot the film in Jamaica.
	11:53pm johnk77: thank u selecter ital cooking
	11:55pm cherry1998: has anyone seen 'Babylon'? been trying to find this
	11:55pm slugluv1313: hi chresti! i was blanking out on Reggae International, looked it up, totally recognized the cover -- i never had a copy, but borrowed from a friend -- same with Reggae Explosion
	11:55pm Mod Mokka Matti: About to get Rickrolled, I see. :-)
	11:56pm cherry1998: joseph ruddy bloody watt... can do no Wrong
	11:56pm paparay: Babylon was screened at BAM about 2 years ago. Dennis Bovell & Brinsley from ASWAD were at the screening. Available on DVD & streaming platforms.
	11:57pm miparis: The King Tubby book @paparay was mentioning earlier https://www.dreadeditions.com/dread-editions-books-in-english sold out but keep an eye on it, it will soon come back
	11:57pm JayD: Is this Stock Aitkin Waterman?
	11:58pm paparay: King Tubby book is a great read. Lots of amazing pics and anecdotes. Yes, it's SAW production.
	11:58pm JBoogie: poor Rick
	11:58pm cherry1998: yeah, I think I learned abt it from that BAM screening! I'll prob download it from KG tonight...
	11:58pm JBoogie: I'll have to catch the rest in the archives. Thanks for all that you do Ray! Really, one of my favorite new shows here
	11:59pm Mod Mokka Matti: I can't believe how even these 3 hour shows go by so fast... Thank you for another great start to the weekend, DJ Ray!
	♥ 11:59pm Matt Fiveash: Rockers is a film that should be better known! I love that movie- it's like a reggae all-star 7 Samurai/Magnificent 7.
	11:59pm cherry1998: thanks for this show. later skaters
	12:00am JBoogie: Friday nights is such a bangin line up on the station now

	♥ 12:00am loveless: Great show. Bye everyone.
	♥ 12:00am chresti: Thanks paparay!
	12:00am PJ: If anybody could change my mind about Rick A, it would be you, Ray, but it was not to be
	12:00am paparay: @JBoogie: Speed up Rick Astley records and they sound like Kylie Minogue. Slow Kylie down and you get Rick Astley.
	12:00am slugluv1313: @cherry1998 -- i think i saw Babylon when it was released -- i was still in college, but at least one theater in NYC was screening it there is also "In A Small Place" -- somewhat based on the Jamaica Kincaid book, but a documentary on Jamaica
	12:01am PJ: But thx for a great show
	12:01am JBoogie: whoa! Rick hack!
	12:01am JBoogie: i looooove Kylie
	12:01am slugluv1313: fantastic show, DJ Ray Boogie -- thanks so much!
	♥ 12:01am evancuts: Thanks so much. I don't want it to end. Going to the archives. Can you suggest a particular date?
	12:02am cherry1998: I felt happy that films like that seem to be more in vogue, rediscovered maybe, nowadays? Yeah yeah yeah!
	12:02am paparay: Thanks to all of you who tuned in. See you all again soon.
	12:03am paparay: @ evancuts: I can't suggest any particular date. Check playlists and you'll be amazed what you hear. Enjoy and be safe.

	♥ 9:13pm radioronan: Good evening DJ Ray Boogie..good on on all those vaxes going around. .got my 2nd earlier in week..
	9:14pm paparay: @ drowsy: Felt my body temperature increase w/ no fever. Was in bed for most of the day. Funny enough, after the vaccine we went out for a pizza. I had a vodka cocktail & some great tiramisu afterwards. Today wasn't so chipper. The arm hurts a little. That will pass.
	♥ 9:14pm TheNewLexGofer: @luka: I hear you. Gave up on my Bob Mould show that was supposed to happen in March of last year and was rescheduled in November. That didn't happen, either. Oh, well...

	9:24pm paparay: Good evening slugluv1313!!!
	♥ 9:25pm DjLorraine: Breathing exercises included
	♥ 9:26pm drowsy: @paparay glad you took the tiramisu therapy, they say that needs two doses as well.
	9:27pm paparay: @ drowsy: That tiramisu was NO JOKE! Fresh mint leaf at the bottom. Who does that? Left our server a fine tip.
	♥ 9:41pm Asheville Jon: Always like hearing this
	9:42pm paparay: Remember seeing them on the 80's 1 season classic Square Pegs.
	9:43pm miparis: This 2nd shot was not as awful as we were fearing. I could work today while @paparay was napping. I had worse reaction after the first one
	♥ 9:43pm drowsy: I think someone mentioned the Waitresses tune on the last fuzzy glove hour for twist endings
	♥ 9:44pm loveless: Saw Square Pegs recently and it still holds up. Great show and great musical guests.
	♥ 9:44pm drowsy: @miparis - raising my near beer to kinder boosters in the future. glad you are through the cycle!
	♥ 9:45pm patrick321: I used to think she was saying “She’s...so obvious” Really.
	♥ 9:46pm drowsy: square pegs was good!
	9:46pm paparay: @ loveless: I remember the DEVO episode. There was talk for a slew of acts for the 2nd season. I remember A Flock Of Seagulls & Rita Marley were on the list. I would've been ecstatic. There's an article online about why the series didn't get renewed.
	♥ 9:47pm loveless: Square Pegs was ahead of its time.
	9:47pm miparis: @drowsy thanks, it’s a relief! Let’s celebrate with a nice glass of wine when your turn comes
	♥ 9:48pm drowsy: Cars - I LOVE the playing, but the lyrics sound they were written by an AI, every time.
	♥ 9:48pm luka: happy birthday, Ric.
	9:49pm paparay: This was the first song by them I really liked. That intro blows me away. The sound of tap dancing feet. Or just feet walking.
	♥ 9:52pm DjLorraine: Patrick321 She is so popular...is not the lyrics either 😅
	9:54pm paparay: This 12" is a French promo that was issued because of Reality Bites soundtrack from 1994. Of course this came out in the 70's on Capitol Records.
	♥ 9:55pm drowsy: My Sharona was a jukebox smash in the campground of my 70s youth. Under a grand tent with pinball. Where we all went when it rained.
	9:55pm miparis: It was big in France
	♥ 9:56pm drowsy: A version must have been produced for that machine, it sounded so good from one piece of hardware.
	♥ 9:56pm luka: oh this robert palmer slaps.
	9:56pm paparay: This Robert Palmer song was played on WBLS in the 80's.
	♥ 9:58pm swivs: This whole album is pretty amazing...
	♥ 9:58pm Will the Sound Guy: definitely some solid spins tonight Ray, keep it going strong snd boogie down
	♥ 9:58pm DjLorraine: Wikipedia says there are Kate Bush vocals on Games Without Frontiers
	9:59pm paparay: @ DjLorraine: Yes, she does some vocals on that there tune.
	10:00pm paparay: @ Will The Sound Guy: Thanks. Will keep it comin'!!!!
	10:00pm jnif: Loving the soundtrack of my youth played on the radio (well, app now!) just like I heard it for the first time. Thanks, @paparay!
	10:03pm paparay: @ jnif: We need more of this during this pandemic. Some sonic solace as stated by DJ Tom Dash last week. Enjoy!
	10:04pm tom from Boonton: WNEW 1979! Thank you for the sweet memory tunes!
	10:07pm Mod Mokka Matti: Wow - just had to look up in a search to remind myself when Robert Palmer passed - will be 18 years already this September... I can remember first hearing the news from a local radio talk show host on KIRO in Seattle, but had forgotten it's been that long.
	10:07pm paparay: Good ole Stiv taking on a Madonna classic.
	10:08pm PJ: I gotta tell you, Ray, I was a little down tonight, but I turned on the radio, not expecting anything, and I heard the tail end of Games Without Frontiers, then Since You're Gone, and then My Sharona, and my spirits could not help but be lifted. Thanks.
	10:08pm slugluv1313: hah! yes Stiv as Madonna, right down to those black lace tights (yep, i still have this 12" w/pic sleeve)
	10:09pm paparay: @ PJ: Glad I am able to lift your spirits.
	10:10pm Hartwell: i keep gradually turning up volume on kitchen radio. Robert Palmer sounded amazing
	10:12pm paparay: @ slugluv1313: Stiv shared with us a bit too much on the back of that sleeve. They would play the Madonna video at Private Eyes but play TLOTNC version as the audio. It would synch perfectly.
	10:14pm paparay: Did someone say MINISTRY??????
	♥ 10:14pm DjLorraine: Dj Ray Boogie i much appreciated your conversations with DJ Tom Dash. A proper thank you to you both.
	10:16pm paparay: @ DjLorraine: I had a great time w/him riding shotgun last week.
	10:16pm Listener Nat: OOh yeah i like where this mix is headed
	10:17pm Mod Mokka Matti: Old Ministry will always be the best Ministry. Uncle Al just needs to accept that.
	10:19pm paparay: @Mod Mokka Matti: AGREED. He needs to embrace his With Sympathy era. It put him on the path where he is. I'm sure you heard about the jingle he wrote in the 80's.
	10:21pm Mod Mokka Matti: @paparay: I'm not sure I was even aware that he wrote a jingle - what would that have been for? Care to elaborate?
	10:22pm Listener Nat: hahaha i like that you clarified "pre-Under the Milky Way," as if that was all they played :D
	♥ 10:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi! Getting my first shot tomorrow.
	10:22pm paparay: @Mod Mokka Matti: He wrote the jingle for Shasta. " I wanna pop! I wanna Shasta!" It's in his book.
	10:23pm paparay: @ Listener Nat: You gotta let the folks who don't know, know.
	10:24pm Domenica: I got first Moderna on Sunday. I am fine, it was a great experience.
	10:24pm Paul in the OC: The wife & I got shot on Wednesday . Only side effect is sore arm: shot itself didn't even hurt so kudos to the techs on site!!
	♥ 10:24pm drowsy: I am so happy to now know the name of the song/artist. thanks!
	10:25pm paparay: Bravo Domenica & Paul in the OC!!!
	10:27pm Domenica: why thank you paparay. :)
	10:28pm AS from MP: Hey, Ray - your Friday night presence has changed the entire mood - thank you! I got #2 Pfizer yesterday at Meadowlands track - same report as Paul in OC = no side-effects either time, just moderately sore shoulder
	10:29pm Domenica: I had a sore arm and felt kind of fatigued, slight headache. It isn't that different than the flu shot.
	10:29pm Mod Mokka Matti: @paparay: Oh, wow. Maybe I did hear that before, but likely got crowded out by a load of other info/events in my head. Thanks for that info nugget! I now have this weird mental picture of present-day AJ pitching that. :-D
	♥ 10:30pm DjLorraine: I had a respectful and quick Johnson & Johnson with FEMA. I got to see smart young amry personnel of all colors.. Working for us. I hope for the best outcomes for everyone.
	10:30pm paparay: AS from MP. Yes, both of us got that pain in the shoulder. That too shall pass. Best thing was that where we got vaccinated was in walking distance from home.
	♥ 10:31pm zzz: whoa this lil louis is a jam! happy friday dj ray boogie and all
	♥ 10:31pm drowsy: @DJLorraine, that is great. I was angling for the J&J but finally the first actual commitment I could get is a two shot. Jealous!
	10:31pm paparay: @Mod Mokka Matti: Yeah imagine Uncle Al pitching to do a jingle for anything. Dressed like he's in The Thunderdome.
	♥ 10:34pm drowsy: this is cheeky
	10:34pm Domenica: Gotta have Divine's "Shoot Your Shot" next.
	10:35pm paparay: @ Domenica: Next time. I haven't dipped into the Divine universe yet. I will!!!!
	♥ 10:36pm drowsy: for some reason I can see Ranking Roger doing this part of the song.
	♥ 10:37pm DjLorraine: We had a scandal with Ocean Reef citizens getting the vacinne before the intended. ($)
	10:39pm paparay: @ drowsy: That was probably him banging the crap outta that percussion.
	10:39pm Domenica: Was that in Florida Lorraine? That sounds like Florida to me.
	♥ 10:40pm drowsy: I'm all for people with dart guns just hitting anything that moves rn, but people scamming is uncool. In CT it is strictly age-based, there are very few ways to get around that. Except volunteering! Then you get any leftovers that day.
	♥ 10:42pm Mr. Pumpy: Hello Ray and all boogers! The vibes are doing it...
	10:42pm paparay: Howdy Mr. Pumpy!
	♥ 10:43pm Mr. Pumpy: paparay! yo yo yo
	♥ 10:43pm DjLorraine: Yes Domenica
	♥ 10:44pm Mr. Pumpy: I was fortunate enough to get my first dose of the vaccine today. I was already struggling with some right shoulder trouble, but damn! This has been augmented from the shot...me thinks.
	10:45pm paparay: @ Mr. Pumpy: Are you having x-ray vision?
	♥ 10:48pm drowsy: Ms. Williams has so many happy tunes PLUS duetting with Johnny Mathis - that is just so much goodness.
	♥ 10:48pm Mr. Pumpy: @paparay...no. I wish, I'd be able to see is my pasta is overboiling in the next room! Is that one of the common side effects?
	10:49pm johnnysideburns: “Love Is In The Air” is occasionally my morning alarm 😄
	10:51pm soul170: Found it! The listener community!
	10:51pm paparay: @ Mr. Pumpy: It could be a side effect for some folks. I was watching that 70's movie The Fury last night and I was talking with my wife about and brought up some other films like Scanners & Firestarter. Movies where people had powers. Some powers acquired by serums and some not.
	10:53pm soul170: Yes, Ray Boogie. You’ve got me tuning in every Friday. Feelin’ the trax!
	10:54pm paparay: @ soul170: Thanks for tuning in.
	10:54pm paparay: FOLKS!!! I cleaned that vinyl before I played it and it jumped!!! Weird!!!!
	10:54pm soul170: And to your earlier question: received first vaccination shot this week. Sore arm plus fatigue and chills. Active immune system? 🤷🏾‍♂️
	♥ 10:55pm drowsy: paparay that just adds cred.
	10:56pm PJ: I don’t think I’ve heard this since elementary school. You’re taking me back, Ray!
	♥ 10:56pm DjLorraine: That rythem
	10:56pm paparay: @ soul170: Fatigue indeed. I felt a bit warmer than usual. No fever though.
	10:57pm PJ: Correction: it was middle school. Standing against the wall at the dances . . .
	10:58pm paparay: @ PJ: That's the thing with this show. Taking it back like 8 track. I didn't care for this song at first. It grew on me. Like their 80's hit Sexy Eyes.
	♥ 10:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...is this PunkRawk ??
	♥ 10:59pm Mr. Pumpy: @paparay...I hope no one's head explodes at my bidding. However, if it is due to deep-seeded suppression cum aggression, there is nothing I can do about it.
	10:59pm paparay: @ Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Perhaps......
	♥ 11:00pm Mr. Pumpy: @paparay...honestly...me arm is killing me right now. I am not responsible...
	♥ 11:00pm Mr. Pumpy: That's it. He's gone. That's it. And that's that. There was nothing we could do about it.
	11:01pm PJ: @paparay: It’s a good song. It’s funny how hearing a tune you haven’t listened to in years, like a scent you haven’t smelled for years, is a little time machine to a a moment or mood.
	11:01pm paparay: @ Mr. Pumpy: When starts to happen, I'm sure some black van will snatch you up and take you to an undisclosed location.
	11:03pm PJ: @Mr. Pumpy: I just hope your nightmare superpower scenario features Debbie Harry circa 1980
	11:04pm Listener Nat: I love this record
	♥ 11:04pm Mr. Pumpy: @paparay. They are taking their sweet time! I may have to start watching The Fury.
	11:04pm Lawrence: Ray - you are crushing it
	♥ 11:04pm Mr. Pumpy: @PJ...that is kind of you.
	11:05pm still b/p: Always seemed strange that Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show got famous with Cover of the Rolling Stone, which seemed to paint them as loose, amiably scruffy rockers/stoners, then went on -- as just Dr. Hook -- to make such lite 'n tidy pop hits of conventional sentiment.
	11:06pm paparay: @ PJ: Videodrome and a bunch of David Cronenberg films came up in the conversation. Videdrome is just brilliant! Cronenberg was trying to tell us something!
	11:07pm Listener Nat: is anyone familiar with rockers hifi version of queen of the ghetto?
	11:07pm paparay: @ Listener Nat: No. I had lunch w? Rockers Hi-Fi back in the 90's during my PolyGram Records era.
	♥ 11:08pm drowsy: wind up me waist!
	♥ 11:09pm Mr. Pumpy: @paparay. Videodrome is an amazing piece of art. I may have to go watch it now. It's been a while.
	11:09pm paparay: Many screw up the lyric "See me in my halter back!"
	11:09pm cherry1998: i'm always too shy to post, but what up gang. hearing "uptown ranking" such a balm
	11:10pm paparay: And many think it's "No pop no style!" It's "Nah pop no style!"
	11:10pm Listener Nat: *queen of the ghetto, or ghetto defendant, iforget whichis the clash original title, but its the one with alan ginsberg.. @ paparay thats badass, did they eat anything particular?
	♥ 11:12pm Mr. Pumpy: I'm loving this show so much, right now. I feel I could meet my wife here!
	11:12pm paparay: @ Listener Nat: I think we ordered pasta entrees.
	11:13pm PJ: @paparay: I think there are things about the modern world that most of us feel, but at a low level, like an almost inaudible hum, something moving just at the periphery of our vision, that artists like Cronenberg, JG Ballard, PK Dick, etc., amplify and make visible so that we have to face them. Doesn’t mean we have solutions, but it’s better to face them than not.
	11:14pm dano59: Crazy good show, Ray.
	♥ 11:15pm drowsy: @paparay I never did catch 'halter back' for what it was.
	11:15pm cherry1998: <<I am your automated wife>> s/o PKD
	11:15pm paparay: Patti Smith was a big supporter of Tappa Zukie.
	11:16pm Listener Nat: dutty room lol
	11:16pm cherry1998: patti smith got to speak her piece in that recent wiseman doc. one wishes... she... got to talk about, like, dub
	11:18pm paparay: @ cherry1998: Patti has a photo of her & Burning Spear backstage after his concert in Central Park back in the 70's.
	11:20pm cherry1998: ah! I guess since that documentary was about the ny public library, it didn't come up overmuch (post that pic?)
	11:22pm johnk77: nice work selecter did u ever go to s.o.b.'s?
	♥ 11:22pm loveless: @cherry 1998 Patti & Burning Spear patricialeesmith.tumblr.com...
	11:22pm tracy. still in LA: ok, twist my arm, i guess i'll get stoned
	11:23pm cherry1998: @loveless @paparay, amazing
	11:23pm paparay: @ loveless: The very same image. I had that Burning Spear t-shirt.
	11:25pm paparay: @ johnk77: Yes I have. I once DJ'ed a party there for The Night Nurse.
	11:26pm cherry1998: what kind of hat is that of Patti's?; looks like a weird brokerage b/w Adidas ActiveWear and Kangol
	11:31pm johnk77: i was the sound guy late 80s->late 90s amy wachtel very cool:>
	♥ 11:33pm chresti: Hi paparay and undergrounders!
	11:33pm paparay: @johnk77: I attended several shows and events. One of the best was the launch party for Reggae: The Rough Guide book. Loads of famous reggae luminaires that evening. Even the great Coxsone Dodd was there. I had a chance to meet him for a few seconds. One night I also met Sly Dunbar there. Cool guy.
	11:34pm paparay: @ chresti: Greetings!
	11:35pm cherry1998: question from naivite: is there any interesting writing on reggae and dub?
	11:36pm cherry1998: (i'll get the rough guide, @paparay)
	11:36pm paparay: @ cherry1998: There's a King Tubby book recently released. And Lloyd Bradley has a great reggae book called Bass Culture.
	♥ 11:37pm drowsy: @cherry1998 this is not a good answer but a great book - A Brief History of Seven Killings by Marlon James is an amazing story.
	11:37pm JBoogie: hiya Ray and gang! I'm so late I pretty much missed this show, live, but hi!
	11:38pm slugluv1313: @cherry1998 -- i like "Bass Culture" by Lloyd Bradley, also "Rastafari: Healing of the Nations" by Dennis Forsythe
	11:38pm paparay: @ drowsy: Haven't read that one yet.
	♥ 11:39pm drowsy: hey JBoogie
	11:39pm slugluv1313: hah! DJ beat me to it re: Bass Culture :)
	11:40pm cherry1998: thanks for these answers. I had heard of that marlon james one, but the others not at all. any and all king tubby books double-jump the queue
	11:40pm paparay: There's an old reggae book called Reggae International. Great book. Full of great pictures and more. I will post pics of some reggae books on my Instagram new_york_undergrouns_wfmu.
	♥ 11:41pm drowsy: That book is about the time and place and persons but not the music itself. It is just a great story!
	♥ 11:41pm DjLorraine: Rhythm.. i mispelled it earlier.
	11:41pm cherry1998: 'bass culture' is avail on libgen, in case anyone else is curious. this looks awesome
	11:41pm paparay: I've heard about it. Supposed to be a film on HBO I believe.
	♥ 11:41pm drowsy: @cherry1998 will check it - thanks!
	11:42pm slugluv1313: Bass Culture IS awesome, enjoy!
	11:42pm paparay: Here's where it gets real FUN!!!!
	11:42pm PJ: So much great music tonight, Ray
	♥ 11:42pm drowsy: whoa that could be cool
	11:43pm slugluv1313: and sorta related -- The Rasta Cookbook by Laura Osborne
