	3:27pm Erica: Great song by the Hollies even though this is a cover.

	♥ 3:31pm Michael 98145: Speaking of which, Philadelphia has a TG Day parade that never gets coverage ...
	♥ 3:31pm Funky16Corners: @zzz - He doesn't get around much these days but he's still sharp as a tack

	♥ 3:33pm Funky16Corners: Taj Mahal recorded it with the Rising Sons. too
	3:35pm Erica: Hi Michael. The Philly parade does get coverage but only regionally I think.
	♥ 3:36pm zzz: *stoned river boys. this is slooooooow. i like the steel playing
	3:36pm Erica: I'm from South Jersey so it does air on my abc affiliate wpvi since it's a Philly affiliate.
	♥ 3:37pm Funky16Corners: @zzz - Great album. I forget where I heard it first. Good mix of rock and country
	♥ 3:37pm WR: Hi Larry, listening but hectic day here. 13th Floor Elevators regularly did Baby Blue as well. Not a preferred version for me.
	♥ 3:37pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - We're far enough south in Ocean County that we get a bunch of Philly stations on our cable
	♥ 3:37pm Funky16Corners: Hey WR!
	3:39pm Erica: Well I'm from Gloucester County so I'm somewhere next to Philly. Didn't watch that parade but I caught news coverage of it.
	♥ 3:40pm Zipperhead7: What a hoot! Gilberto Gil does Jimi Hendrix, who did Mose Allison. Love it!
	3:40pm Erica: 0One marching band played the Liberty bell March which made me think of Monty Python.
	♥ 3:40pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - As long as we get the Mummers on New Years
	♥ 3:40pm Funky16Corners: @Zipperhead7 - What Mose did Jimi cover?
	♥ 3:41pm Zipperhead7: I always thought this song sounded like his tribute to Mose
	3:41pm Erica: My dad loved the Mummers every year.
	♥ 3:43pm Funky16Corners: @Zipperhead7 - I see what you're saying now
	♥ 3:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hullo ! Zipperheard7 - nice insight.
	♥ 3:45pm Funky16Corners: Hey Rev Rabbit!
	♥ 3:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & Isleys one of Jimi's better early employers.
	♥ 3:48pm Funky16Corners: No kidding! His playing on the 45 of Testify is amazing
	♥ 3:49pm Zipperhead7: Hey there RevRab! WFMU is an unending garden of delights. How am I supposed to have a life with all of this great music?!
	♥ 3:49pm Funky16Corners: This show has a set of early Hendrix as sideman: wfmu.org...
	♥ 3:49pm Michael 98145: I've always been a long-distance fan of Philadelphia. Many enjoyable visits ...
	♥ 3:50pm Funky16Corners: It's a great city!
	♥ 3:50pm Michael 98145: Yes
	♥ 3:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx for link !
	♥ 3:56pm Doug Schulkind: Hello, de ho!
	3:56pm Erica: Hi Doug.
	♥ 3:56pm Funky16Corners: Hey Doug!
	♥ 3:59pm Doug Schulkind: Speaking of Hendrix as a sideman, I played a Buddy & Stacy track on my show a few weeks ago. Here's a clip from the Night Train program on local Memphis television with Jimi playing guitar behind Buddy & Stacy: www.youtube.com...
	♥ 4:00pm Funky16Corners: I think that's the earliest live footage of Hendrix
	4:02pm Erica: A lot of Carole King covers I hear on here.
	♥ 4:04pm Zipperhead7: Hendrix had a nice process back in the day, though I still think Ike Turner takes the process prize before he got his Beatle 'do
	♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: Just in this set
	♥ 4:05pm Funky16Corners: @Zipperhead7 - Look for the video of Ike and Tina on Ed Sullivan and check out the process on the drummer. It's amazing.
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm dutchtheo: yes it's late! hey Larry!
	♥ 4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Doug Thx ! Kewl to see the whole segment. Too easy after the fact to spot the Bob Dylan fan in the R&B lineup...
	♥ 4:06pm Funky16Corners: Hey Theo!
	♥ 4:10pm Zipperhead7: Yes indeed that is magnificent hurr. The whole clip should have been on the Voyager to provide aliens with an insight into the pinnacle of human expression: www.youtube.com...
	4:10pm Erica: That was quite a long version of It's Too Late.
	♥ 4:15pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - Ten minutes and 31 seconds!
	♥ 4:17pm Funky16Corners: Make sure to stay tuned for Kop and Discotech Underground at 5PM: wfmu.org...
	♥ 4:18pm Funky16Corners: KIP not KOP...
	4:20pm Erica: Autocorrect Larry?
	♥ 4:21pm Funky16Corners: Sloppy typing
	♥ 4:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nilsson in a voice straining contest with Lennon. Don't do it Harry !
	♥ 4:23pm Funky16Corners: I think his voice was already on the way out at this point
	♥ 4:26pm zzz: a bit of screamy-Dylan (rolling thunder) here too, i dont hate it
	♥ 4:26pm coelacanth∅: sounds almost like the backing track to mind games
	♥ 4:26pm Funky16Corners: Lennon arranged that track.
	♥ 4:27pm coelacanth∅: heh - clearly!
	♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: BTW, steel guitar on the Nilsson...Sneaky Pete from the Flying Burrito Brothers...
	4:28pm northguineahills: Jeff G played this FBB back in 2016....
	♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: Hey NGH!
	4:32pm northguineahills: the first version of wild horse i ever heard wasn't that version, or that one, or even that other one, but from the sundays when i was in hs....
	♥ 4:32pm zzz: this is a perfect cover. just read on wiki this was released before the stones version . wow
	♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: Gram was smacking it up in France with the Stones
	4:36pm northguineahills: i've never heard a cover of junk before, sweetness...
	♥ 4:36pm Brian in UK: Aaah Spanky.
	♥ 4:37pm Funky16Corners: @NGH - That Sandie Shaw album was never released in the US
	♥ 4:38pm Brian in UK: Remember buying Peter, Paul & Mary's single of this. Must have been'69/70.
	♥ 4:39pm Funky16Corners: It's such a great song
	♥ 4:39pm coelacanth∅: someone else covered junk, i'm blanking out on who... to be honest i don't like Sandie's singing at all. that ending was appropriate! (sorry Sandie)
	♥ 4:40pm Funky16Corners: This is a one of those songs I remember my parents loving when I was a kid. I was 7 when the PPM single came out
	♥ 4:41pm Brian in UK: coelacanth∅ I did send you a belated reply on Continental Subway. All is good.
	4:41pm northguineahills: @Larry: whhhhaaaaa? wow... (yet, somehow doesn't surprise me)
	♥ 4:41pm coelacanth∅: maybe the last great PP&M song? - i can't say i like theirs more than the original, but my 2nd favorite
	♥ 4:42pm Brian in UK: Never heard JD's original, nothing can beat PP&M.
	♥ 4:42pm Funky16Corners: @NGH - About what?
	♥ 4:43pm Funky16Corners: @C - It was their last hit
	♥ 4:43pm coelacanth∅: they're neck & neck, in my opinion -though very different. Thanks for the good news Brian! i did see that before. sleep is good.
	♥ 4:45pm coelacanth∅: i grew up on PPM, and there's no disputing their harmonies; but i also Love John Denver's voice. + you know he felt it when he sang it.
	4:45pm northguineahills: @larry: sandie shaw
	♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, it's weird because it's a great album.
	♥ 4:47pm Funky16Corners: @C - My Mom played John Denver constantly in our house. His voice is one of those crystal sounds, like Nilsson's in his prime
	♥ 4:49pm coelacanth∅: i never heard any John Denver besides the big hits until i was around 20
	♥ 4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JoanBaez does 'Percy' in the 'Don't Look Back' film - I was a bit obsessed...
	4:49pm northguineahills: i was about to say, the first two fairport albums have a good chunk of covers (somehow missed the beeb sessions).
	♥ 4:50pm Andrew in Toronto: Fantastic show! Thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:50pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Andrew!
	♥ 4:50pm Brian in UK: Just read Richard Thompson's Beeswing. Interesting read. No TV's in swimming pools.
	♥ 4:51pm Funky16Corners: I loved that book!
	♥ 4:51pm Funky16Corners: His memories of Nick Drake were haunting
	♥ 4:52pm Brian in UK: Yes, Delius being the common topic.
	4:52pm northguineahills: @Brian: throws another book on the queue
	♥ 4:52pm doctorjazz: Love this Fairport!
	♥ 4:54pm zzz: thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:54pm doctorjazz: I have Beeswing, haven't gotten to it, though, one of these days. Thanks, Larry!
	♥ 4:54pm Brian in UK: ngh, it never ends. I get so sidetracked reading one book & another is mentioned in it. Bit like music. Planning to get some Kendrick Lamar.
	♥ 4:55pm WR: Enjoyed the program, Larry. Thank you very much. Now I need to find some Evie Sands recordings.
	4:56pm Erica: What a show. Thank you Larry!
	♥ 4:56pm Zipperhead7: enjoyed the show, Larry!
	♥ 4:57pm Brian in UK: Are we there already. Nice one, Larry.
	♥ 4:57pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:57pm Funky16Corners: Thanks everybody!
	♥ 4:58pm Yvang: So many hits and beautiful versions! Thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:58pm Candy-O'67: Thx, Larry! Was busy working, but enjoyed the show!
	4:58pm northguineahills: thanks, larry, fun times!
	♥ 4:58pm Funky16Corners: Thanks folks!
	♥ 4:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Conversely - things we know happened but the film's lost - or tapes in fact wiped. Earliest Beatles broadcasts in the UK among them... ~ TY Always DJ LG ~
	♥ 4:59pm Funky16Corners: Bye Rev!

	♥ 3:49pm Michael 98145: I've always been a long-distance fan of Philadelphia. Many enjoyable visits ...

	♥ 3:56pm Doug Schulkind: Hello, de ho!
	3:56pm Erica: Hi Doug.
	♥ 3:56pm Funky16Corners: Hey Doug!
	♥ 3:59pm Doug Schulkind: Speaking of Hendrix as a sideman, I played a Buddy & Stacy track on my show a few weeks ago. Here's a clip from the Night Train program on local Memphis television with Jimi playing guitar behind Buddy & Stacy: www.youtube.com...
	♥ 4:00pm Funky16Corners: I think that's the earliest live footage of Hendrix
	4:02pm Erica: A lot of Carole King covers I hear on here.
	♥ 4:04pm Zipperhead7: Hendrix had a nice process back in the day, though I still think Ike Turner takes the process prize before he got his Beatle 'do
	♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: Just in this set
	♥ 4:05pm Funky16Corners: @Zipperhead7 - Look for the video of Ike and Tina on Ed Sullivan and check out the process on the drummer. It's amazing.
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm dutchtheo: yes it's late! hey Larry!
	♥ 4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Doug Thx ! Kewl to see the whole segment. Too easy after the fact to spot the Bob Dylan fan in the R&B lineup...
	♥ 4:06pm Funky16Corners: Hey Theo!
	♥ 4:10pm Zipperhead7: Yes indeed that is magnificent hurr. The whole clip should have been on the Voyager to provide aliens with an insight into the pinnacle of human expression: www.youtube.com...
	4:10pm Erica: That was quite a long version of It's Too Late.
	♥ 4:15pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - Ten minutes and 31 seconds!
	♥ 4:17pm Funky16Corners: Make sure to stay tuned for Kop and Discotech Underground at 5PM: wfmu.org...
	♥ 4:18pm Funky16Corners: KIP not KOP...
	4:20pm Erica: Autocorrect Larry?
	♥ 4:21pm Funky16Corners: Sloppy typing
	♥ 4:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nilsson in a voice straining contest with Lennon. Don't do it Harry !
	♥ 4:23pm Funky16Corners: I think his voice was already on the way out at this point
	♥ 4:26pm zzz: a bit of screamy-Dylan (rolling thunder) here too, i dont hate it
	♥ 4:26pm coelacanth∅: sounds almost like the backing track to mind games
	♥ 4:26pm Funky16Corners: Lennon arranged that track.
	♥ 4:27pm coelacanth∅: heh - clearly!
	♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: BTW, steel guitar on the Nilsson...Sneaky Pete from the Flying Burrito Brothers...
	4:28pm northguineahills: Jeff G played this FBB back in 2016....
	♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: Hey NGH!
	4:32pm northguineahills: the first version of wild horse i ever heard wasn't that version, or that one, or even that other one, but from the sundays when i was in hs....
	♥ 4:32pm zzz: this is a perfect cover. just read on wiki this was released before the stones version . wow
	♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: Gram was smacking it up in France with the Stones
	4:36pm northguineahills: i've never heard a cover of junk before, sweetness...
	♥ 4:36pm Brian in UK: Aaah Spanky.
	♥ 4:37pm Funky16Corners: @NGH - That Sandie Shaw album was never released in the US
	♥ 4:38pm Brian in UK: Remember buying Peter, Paul & Mary's single of this. Must have been'69/70.
	♥ 4:39pm Funky16Corners: It's such a great song
	♥ 4:39pm coelacanth∅: someone else covered junk, i'm blanking out on who... to be honest i don't like Sandie's singing at all. that ending was appropriate! (sorry Sandie)
	♥ 4:40pm Funky16Corners: This is a one of those songs I remember my parents loving when I was a kid. I was 7 when the PPM single came out
	♥ 4:41pm Brian in UK: coelacanth∅ I did send you a belated reply on Continental Subway. All is good.
	4:41pm northguineahills: @Larry: whhhhaaaaa? wow... (yet, somehow doesn't surprise me)
	♥ 4:41pm coelacanth∅: maybe the last great PP&M song? - i can't say i like theirs more than the original, but my 2nd favorite
	♥ 4:42pm Brian in UK: Never heard JD's original, nothing can beat PP&M.
	♥ 4:42pm Funky16Corners: @NGH - About what?
	♥ 4:43pm Funky16Corners: @C - It was their last hit
	♥ 4:43pm coelacanth∅: they're neck & neck, in my opinion -though very different. Thanks for the good news Brian! i did see that before. sleep is good.
	♥ 4:45pm coelacanth∅: i grew up on PPM, and there's no disputing their harmonies; but i also Love John Denver's voice. + you know he felt it when he sang it.
	4:45pm northguineahills: @larry: sandie shaw
	♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, it's weird because it's a great album.
	♥ 4:47pm Funky16Corners: @C - My Mom played John Denver constantly in our house. His voice is one of those crystal sounds, like Nilsson's in his prime
	♥ 4:49pm coelacanth∅: i never heard any John Denver besides the big hits until i was around 20
	♥ 4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JoanBaez does 'Percy' in the 'Don't Look Back' film - I was a bit obsessed...
	4:49pm northguineahills: i was about to say, the first two fairport albums have a good chunk of covers (somehow missed the beeb sessions).
	♥ 4:50pm Andrew in Toronto: Fantastic show! Thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:50pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Andrew!
	♥ 4:50pm Brian in UK: Just read Richard Thompson's Beeswing. Interesting read. No TV's in swimming pools.
	♥ 4:51pm Funky16Corners: I loved that book!
	♥ 4:51pm Funky16Corners: His memories of Nick Drake were haunting
	♥ 4:52pm Brian in UK: Yes, Delius being the common topic.
	4:52pm northguineahills: @Brian: throws another book on the queue
	♥ 4:52pm doctorjazz: Love this Fairport!
	♥ 4:54pm zzz: thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:54pm doctorjazz: I have Beeswing, haven't gotten to it, though, one of these days. Thanks, Larry!
	♥ 4:54pm Brian in UK: ngh, it never ends. I get so sidetracked reading one book & another is mentioned in it. Bit like music. Planning to get some Kendrick Lamar.

	♥ 4:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Conversely - things we know happened but the film's lost - or tapes in fact wiped. Earliest Beatles broadcasts in the UK among them... ~ TY Always DJ LG ~
