	10:17pm Robm: @Candy-O thought it was this Thursday
	♥ 10:18pm WR: Hi all. Listening while helping someone study for a tech certification test so won't be on the comments much tonight.
	10:19pm RoX: Always glad to catch Kris and his records.
	♥ 10:21pm Candy-O'67: Not until the 7th, Robm. Hope you can catch it then 😁
	10:22pm Kris Holmes: Candy is it on the R&S stream again?
	10:23pm Robm: @Candy will be there with bells on
	♥ 10:24pm doctorjazz: Haven't heard this Blue Cheer in ages!
	10:25pm still b/p: Blue Cheer was not conserving their energy in the season's heat.
	♥ 10:25pm Candy-O'67: It is, Kris. I'll be filling in for Flot's Spot. It's at 8:00 pm, CT
	♥ 10:25pm doctorjazz: Member did understand that "with bells on" phrase-wouldn't that detract from the event your coming to? This Spirit is up there in my Best Song Ever list!
	10:26pm Kris Holmes: Cool, Saturday was fun
	♥ 10:26pm doctorjazz: *never did understand... Should have read
	10:26pm Kris Holmes: It's a great track
	♥ 10:26pm Candy-O'67: Thx, Kris! I had a great time, too
	♥ 10:27pm doctorjazz: Missed Saturday, have to check it in the archive.. m
	♥ 10:27pm Candy-O'67: Please do, doc!
	10:27pm still b/p: Line...Light....all these years my ears and I couldn't have told you what that title and lyric was.
	♥ 10:35pm doctorjazz: Time Won't Let Me-another on my list of Best Songs Ever.
	♥ 10:38pm Matt from New Orleans: I think the only thing people may know about Spirit is them getting ripped off by Led Zeppelin
	♥ 10:40pm JtotheK: Yeah, great Tom Jones 45!
	10:41pm Kris Holmes: Hadn't seen one for ages & then found a couple in quick succession at different times.
	♥ 10:42pm JtotheK: Internet Research shows - that Tom Jones was sampled by 62 songs. Whoa!
	♥ 10:44pm Candy-O'67: That is the best Spirit song. Have always loved that one
	♥ 10:45pm JtotheK: Area record store had the Tom Jones 'Chills and Fever' 45 on Tower somewhat recently. I probably should have bought it.
	10:45pm still b/p: Any story behind Tom being allowed to do his own distinctive thing in the studio? Anyone try to rein him in or neutralize him to something more standard-sappy-sleepy-safe? Or once he established his appeal and sales, they said "Yeah, go!"...?
	10:45pm Kris Holmes: Yeah, it's great & you never see that one! Chills & Fever.
	♥ 10:45pm JtotheK: I like this Ramsey Lewis 45 and the LP isn't bad either.
	♥ 10:46pm Candy-O'67: Chris, total drought over here, too
	10:46pm Kris Holmes: Tom Jones always had good R&B scattered throughout, he was definitely a Blues & Soul fan.
	♥ 10:47pm JtotheK: Tom Jones was also great in the feature film "Mars Attacks" - would you agree Matt from NO?
	♥ 10:50pm JtotheK: Re: TJ Chills/Fever - at the time I thought "it's a Tom Jones 45, it'll turn up again..." and then I realized hours later that wait - I'd never actually seen it before...and also that it was priced well below going rate. And I realized then and there that yep, I should've just bought it. So it goes.
	♥ 10:54pm Candy-O'67: JtotheK, Night Owl plays a lot of that Ramsey Lewis LP
	♥ 10:56pm JtotheK: At one point I was purchasing any Ramsey Lewis record that I came across because they are always inexpensive. Same thing with Ahmad Jamal. Then all the sudden realized I had 20+ albums by both Ramsey Lewis and Ahmad Jamal and that I wouldn't be listening to all 40 on a regular basis and that they took up a lot of space.
	♥ 10:57pm Candy-O'67: Haha!
	11:01pm Kris Holmes: I honestly believe that if you let a Ramsey Lewis record into your home that when you're asleep it opens the door & lets the rest of them in secretly & before you know it there's like 25 Ramsey lewis LPs in your collection!!! It's weird. I also had to unfile a ton
	♥ 11:02pm Candy-O'67: Crackin me up, Kris!!
	♥ 11:08pm doctorjazz: Kris@11:01, hahahaha!
	♥ 11:10pm JtotheK: Exactly Kris, they are always good records and never very expensive! I'll have to look at which Ramsey LPs are still filed. Mother Nature's Son, Wade in the Water, Maiden Voyage ... and I'm sure more. Ahmad Jamal I kept the Impulse LPs and a bunch of others.
	11:11pm Kris Holmes: I am down to maybe one Ahmad Jamal LP finally
	11:11pm still b/p: Ya need to create a little stop-motion film illustrating that record-collection night mischief in progress in the household.
	♥ 11:12pm Candy-O'67: Yes, still b/p!
	♥ 11:15pm JtotheK: Did you keep Ahmad Jamal 'The Awakening' ? That has become a 200-300 record recently.
	11:16pm Kris Holmes: I've never had that
	♥ 11:20pm JtotheK: It's great! 15-20 years ago it was in demand because of the Nas sample for 'The World is Yours' but not sure when exactly it jumped up so much. I found a couple 'in the field' 15+ years ago, I think I gave one to my brother in law.
	11:21pm Kris Holmes: I'd definitely file if I came across it, just haven't yet.
	♥ 11:22pm doctorjazz: This still the Jukebox haul?
	11:23pm Kris Holmes: Detour into another couple of bunches tonight that came in since the jukebox stuff
	♥ 11:33pm doctorjazz: This Moonglows is great, that junction of R and B, Jump Jazz, great stuff!
	11:34pm Kris Holmes: Yes, I love that junction
	♥ 11:34pm doctorjazz: This Smiley Lewis is a great tune, this 45 sounds like it has had its day.
	11:35pm Kris Holmes: Funnily, this is the first time I'ver ever found this 45!
	11:36pm Kris Holmes: This was a lot where there were some cool 45s but some were off condition unfortunately
	♥ 11:50pm Candy-O'67: Swamp Boogie's theme song right here on WWOZ. His show is Thursday nights
	11:51pm Kris Holmes: Oh Dale uses this? Cool.
	♥ 11:51pm doctorjazz: A "Little" quartet of great tunes!
