Listener comments!
	10:39am Listener Baby: Staring out over the landscape, all I see are #1 Hits. Uncanny.
	10:46am Listener Baby: #1 Hits and the rapid decline of western civilization. I forgot to mention that one.
	♥ 11:00am Frank In Queens: POW POW HEY NOW!!
	♥ 11:00am Squints: ok then. hey HEY hey now.
	♥ 11:00am Handy Haversack: Michael and all the Shellegamers! Hey now!
	11:00am Scott from Boston: Morning all!
	♥ 11:00am Handy Haversack: Betting on "Some" by Gems as the first track. Any takers?
	♥ 11:01am Frank In Queens: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:00 You sonofabitch!
	♥ 11:01am Ciggy: Hi Mikey What's in store for us today
	♥ 11:01am egould: I just Googled “Cleveland Clambake”. Very NSFW.
	11:02am Cooh John: Hello Michael and #1ers. I would never bet against you, Handy.
	11:04am Bri The Beatnik: ↳ Song: "Some" by "Gems" Elvis Costello? Just saw him on TFI Friday last night!
	11:04am Shifty McGhee: Pow pow pow Pop pop pop
	11:05am Michael Shelley: ↳ Ciggy @11:01 A LOT - trust me
	11:05am Michael Shelley: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:00 Fishy
	♥ 11:05am Steve Del Sol: Pow Pow Now!!
	♥ 11:06am Steve Del Sol: In the afternoon, ya see...
	♥ 11:06am steveo: got arrested once for telling a co-worker, I'm gonna shake your tamborine
	11:06am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "After Midnight" by "J.J. Cale" Instant replay!
	11:07am Mr. Jones: ↳ Song: "After Midnight" by "J.J. Cale" After midnight I'll be sleeping on the couch After midnight, my tongue'll be just hangin' out
	11:08am greg g: Morning Michael & All You # 1’s!!! Hope St Valentine brought you some seeets!
	11:09am greg g: Not seats but sweets 🍫 🍭!
	♥ 11:10am McGroovey: ↳ egould @11:01 I just Googled “Cleveland Clambake”, and I couldn't find anything NSFW. Clambakes are a thing in the Syracuse area where I grew up. They would differ from clambakes anywhere else, because in Central NY, clambakes feature salt potatoes. Central NY clambakes are quite SFW. But I suspect I must be talking about a different kind of clambake. My mind is too pure to conceive of what that might be.
	11:11am Mr. Jones: ↳ Song: "Move Over And Let Me Dance (pt1)" by "Isley Broth... The Hendrix playing here reminds me of the backing tracks for Lightnin' Rod's "Doriella Du Fontaine"
	11:11am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Move Over And Let Me Dance (pt1)" by "Isley Broth... Ron great as always. A lot Jiminess in there
	11:12am berbo: move over and let Jimi play.
	11:12am Mr. Jones: ↳ McGroovey @11:10 Downstate they can go bad in a minute. Coupla guys show up with razor clams and an attitude, and it's ON!
	11:15am Mister Dobalina: ↳ Song: "Cachucha Bacana" by "Afrosound" Diggin these sounds. Have a feeling Rob W. would also approve.
	11:15am OnTheTrain: morning gang
	11:16am regular guy: This is a version of a vallenato recorded by alejo duran in the 1960s or 70s. Alejo is like the biggest star of vallenato. Vallenato is a pre-cumvia Colombian music style.
	♥ 11:18am steveo: how does one spell woppa woppa chewba?
	♥ 11:19am steveo: *boppa
	♥ 11:19am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Ele E Minha Menina" by "Os Carbonos" I think it's Paul McCartney on backing vocals. And he's eating a carrot.
	♥ 11:21am myron feld: ↳ Song: "We'll Try" by "Seely Jurgens Band" The verse reminds of a song on Redd Kross's "Neurotica," the title of which I cannot recall.
	11:21am Scott from Boston: Wow, accurate Michael. Bread anytime is great.
	11:21am Moammar: ↳ Song: "We'll Try" by "Seely Jurgens Band" The soft rock revival is upon is. Seems to go with all those terrible 1980s glasses that are making a comeback.
	11:22am Crownless Gander: Lead vocals a bit like Left Banke, maybe?
	11:23am P-90: DANELECTRO BASS DEPT. . By chance this week I came across a couple of posts that would be of interest to those who might still be curious about the Danelectro “six-string bass” guitar and how it came to be viewed by record producers and arrangers as an instrument distinct from the Fender-style electric (four-string) bass. . https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1022820259873332&id=100064361036882 . https://reverb.com/news/danelectros-ub-2-and-the-birth-of-6-string-basses
	11:25am Michael Shelley: ↳ P-90 @11:23 THANKS!
	♥ 11:26am Hughie Considine: Apparently he played "Temporary Secretary."
	11:27am berbo: Adrian Belew got his start playing Beatles covers in high school.
	11:27am Listener Bop Monroe: the seperation is great. these skunks don't stink!
	♥ 11:27am egould: ↳ Song: "The Night Before" by "Skunks, The" Just a little wacky.
	11:27am Listener Baby: Skunks hold their own.
	11:28am Mark T: Greetings from Tempe, AZ
	♥ 11:29am PNX: Going to see Cowboy Junkies in Newark tonight. Anybody have Portuguese restaurant recommendations?
	11:29am Moammar: ↳ PNX @11:29 Marisqueira Seabra
	♥ 11:30am Steve Del Sol: Aren't we all just wandering the streets, Mike?
	11:30am Listener Bop Monroe: "LSD is the bomb!"
	11:30am gf2002: Cue the 45rpm of the song "LSD-25" by The Gamblers, recorded in 1960 when it was still legal.
	11:30am mr_donutsu: Ah, the ol’ LSD Monkey
	♥ 11:30am Hughie Considine: Lots of kids I knew took LSD pretty often in high school and none ended up shells of themselves, although some became Trump supporters.
	11:31am ira: I feel mentally sick every time I look at the newspaper, but maybe I've just been dosed.
	♥ 11:31am McGroovey: There was a lot of LSD (and mescaline) around where I grew up when I was a teenager. My friends were mostly into it, but they told me I shouldn't, and I believed them, so I never have. That's fine with me.
	♥ 11:31am egould: ↳ Song: "L.S.D." by "Wendell Austin" Did Rex lend this 45 to you, Michael? This is lunkhead rocknroll.
	11:31am SecretSquirrel: An LSD monkey on his back!?!
	11:31am Bob: Good morning, everyone. And Clarke! Snow is a flying in the Mitten
	11:32am ptc: The writer of that song obviously never used acid.
	11:32am No Big Thing in Chicago: Introduced to that track by Tex Edwards of the Nervebreakers on one of his excellent solo LPs.
	11:32am Listener Bop Monroe: ↳ Song: "L.S.D." by "Wendell Austin" i was a stupid hippie-wannabe. did a lot in my late teens. stopped myself in senior year after i looked up 'whatever happened to syd barret?' and re-listened to saucerful of secrets. then i went punk
	♥ 11:33am PNX: ↳ Moammar @11:29 Looks good - thanks!
	♥ 11:33am timurf: ↳ Song: "Make A Little Love" by "Lowell Fulson" Best Valentines Day (weekend) song EV-uh!
	♥ 11:33am Hoboken Jack: Good morning Michael, Baby, McGroove, Frank (hey i was in Queens last night, Trans-Pecos), Handy, Bri, everybody!
	11:33am ira: What are you filing when the letter after FULSO- affects the order? Asking for a friend.
	11:33am Listener Baby: ↳ PNX @11:29 Never liked that band. Then I listened to Baby Joe’s interview with their leader. I have new found respect for them. Please give a report next week.
	11:34am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Make A Little Love" by "Lowell Fulson" Roadhouse was a genre
	11:34am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Make A Little Love" by "Lowell Fulson" $50 process. what is that in today’s dollars?
	11:35am berbo: I'm sure the Skunks are long gone. But if you make your way up to Thiensville, WI next week you can catch Justin Timberlake.
	11:35am gf2002: For all the acid casualties we hear about in the rock world, John Lennon seemed to be relatively unscathed after taking probably as much pure LSD in the span of a few years as any musician or celeb
	11:35am clarke: hey now! i was unavoidably detained.
	11:35am Mr. Jones: I figured it was supposed to be Sandy Perlman
	11:36am clarke: yeah, but i bet they are better off for not screwing with pearlman at at that time!
	♥ 11:37am PNX: ↳ Listener Baby @11:33 They were an important part of my teenage love story with my wife - hence a nice Valentines Day date. I'll report back!
	♥ 11:37am evancuts: G 14!!!
	♥ 11:37am evancuts: Exact center of the theater.
	♥ 11:37am Kotzwinkled: Yeah most theaters are "LIEMAX." The Lincoln Square IMAX is the best I've ever seen.
	11:37am Listener Baby: ↳ PNX @11:37 Even better!
	♥ 11:37am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "L.S.D." by "Wendell Austin" Wow, that guy sounded very much like another Maine country guy, Dick Curless
	11:38am PatrickMC: Waiting for the BÖC #1 hits
	♥ 11:38am Hoboken Jack: ↳ clarke @11:35 Hey Clarke! Are you sure it wasn't avoidable?
	♥ 11:38am Steve Del Sol: My coasters are constantly in use.
	11:38am goes211: Just finished the Patti Smith memoir. Didn’t know she was long time partner of Blue Oyster Cult bassist. Also didn’t realize that he is of New Orleans musical royalty. FYI.
	11:38am Listener Baby: ↳ PNX @11:37 If you didn’t catch it, check out Joes’s interview on Surface Noise. Really good.
	11:38am clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:38 sandy was sue-happy at that time - sue everybody!
	♥ 11:38am myron feld: Led Zep movie: very good documentary, great interview and back stories, but enough with the bowed guitar and the yowling. And I say that as someone who LOVED LZ as a youth, saw them three times, etc etc.
	11:38am ledzeppelinsucks: Led Zeppelelin and ranch dressing should be drop kicked into oblivion.
	♥ 11:39am Joey C says: Hi Michael. I saw the Becoming LZ doc in the only AMC Imax Theater I could find while travelling near Harrisburg PA. I was alone in the theater, 10 pm show, and I enjoyed the film just fine in row D, Seat 11. A large tub of buttered popcorn helped.
	11:39am clarke: I Love You Again - brilliant flick!
	11:39am Mailman Tom: I don't like Led Zeppelin either, especially Robert Plant's high, screechy voice.
	♥ 11:40am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ goes211 @11:38 Which memoir? Year of the Monkey?
	♥ 11:41am egould: ↳ ledzeppelinsucks @11:38 Whoa, dude. Back off the ranch dressing hate. :-)
	♥ 11:41am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Mailman Tom @11:39 I listened to his podcast series a while ago and he said he overdid it on the early records.
	11:41am goes211: Just Kids…sorry.
	11:41am Michael Shelley: David Johansen Fund: www.sweetrelief.org...
	11:42am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I Saw The Light" by "Quincy Conserve" Indestructible song. Same with Hello It's Me
	11:43am PatrickMC: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:41 Thanks for this. God bless David Jo
	11:43am Frank In Queens: Somehow not as slick as the Todd version and yet too slick at the same time.
	♥ 11:43am WoodsOfMaine: Every year I throw out a bottle of ranch dressing.
	11:43am Listener Bop Monroe: thnx for the recommendation of I Love You Again. little rascals meet the thin couple. i'm there.
	11:43am Andres: ↳ Song: "I Saw The Light" by "Quincy Conserve" Car radio staple. AM gold!
	11:43am Mark T: ↳ Song: "I Saw The Light" by "Quincy Conserve" I like this version
	♥ 11:44am tadpoles: ↳ PatrickMC @11:42 Wow Michael...blast from my past...Quincey Conserve...MOR eNZed band....give me the La De Das but thanks for the memory.
	♥ 11:44am Hoboken Jack: Just in this area, Clifton Commons, Jersey Gardens, and AMC Garden State are listed on the IMAX website.
	♥ 11:45am JG: ↳ Song: "I Saw The Light" by "Quincy Conserve" Imagine catching this outfit doing this in a bar/ lounge in a Best Western? That would be great
	11:45am Frank In Queens: @Woods that’s the only sensible thing to do with ranch dressing.
	♥ 11:45am egould: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:43 Bottled salad dressing is awful. Make your own.
	11:45am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:45 he shoots he scores. i'll have a double zep with ranch!
	♥ 11:46am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:45 Grandkidz visit a couple of times a year and it's the only way they'll eat any vegetables. That and their mom won't eat mayo. It's complicated. Or not.
	11:46am P-90: Carol Kaye’s book: . https://shop.carolkaye.com/carol-kaye-autobiography/
	♥ 11:46am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "Happy" by "Nancy Sinatra" Dang, bass line SO good!
	11:46am Andres: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:43 Family tradition?
	11:46am SecretSquirrel: Just found out Carol Kaye played that amazing bassline on “These Boot Are Made for Walking.”
	11:47am Mailman Tom: ↳ egould @11:45 Paul Newman's brand is great!
	♥ 11:47am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ egould @11:45 If I made my own the kids would be guaranteed to reject it.
	♥ 11:48am Steve Del Sol: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:45 Loved ranch dressing as a teen. Now, just a goofy way to consume saturated fats.
	♥ 11:48am egould: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:47 Seems like you have a dilemma. Godspeed.
	11:48am Mister Dobalina: I find it kinda odd that egg prices are what they are now, but chicken meat really hasn't fluctuated much. Not at least around my way.
	♥ 11:48am Hughie Considine: If pressed, I like my chicken fryin'-size.
	11:48am bobobob opop: Milwaukee also had a band named The Skunks
	11:49am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "What's That Cookin'?" by "Deke Dickerson" You won't catch me at the coocooroo
	11:49am Frank In Queens: @clarke how are you feeling?
	♥ 11:49am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Mister Dobalina @11:48 The ol' chicken and egg conundrum.
	11:49am Listener Bop Monroe: chicken and waffles at sylvia's
	11:49am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:49 a bit better thanks! you know the drill - coughing away.
	11:51am OnTheTrain: there is a channel for old 1979-1989 this old house episodes. i love it .
	11:51am Mister Dobalina: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:49 Totally!
	♥ 11:51am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:49 Drag, sir. Liquids, I say I say drink liquids!
	11:51am PatrickMC: Have you found the Alfred Hitchcock Presents Baywatch channel?
	11:51am Mister Dobalina: The Mystery Science Theater 3000 channel on Roku got me through a good chunk of the pandemic.
	♥ 11:52am egould: The “Crime Channel” shows Rockford, Kojak, and Quincy. At least that was what they played last week when I was visiting my in-laws and watching tv.
	11:52am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:51 all i have is water. need to get to the sto'!
	♥ 11:52am Hughie Considine: The Lawrence Welk version of "One Toke Over the Line" would fit in this set.
	11:52am Jim from Tranquility: I’ve been on a Kojak kick on Roku the last couple weeks it gets addicting
	11:52am R.H.: i believe this was the theme song to a certain website based around partying with lemons....
	11:52am Listener Bop Monroe: what a good looking cop! www.discogs.com...
	11:53am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I You Wanna Be Happy" by "Soul Cop, The" Wisdom like a clavinet transcends eras
	11:53am Jimmy Wipper: The original by Jimmy Soul was recorded a few blocks from my house. The building is gone but the Norfolk Sound lives on!
	11:53am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:52 The Lemon Sisters?
	♥ 11:53am ike̶̬̕: There are lots of these FAST (Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV) services now -- Pluto, Tubi, the Roku "Channel", etc. etc. CBS/Viacom owns Pluto and Fox owns Tubi.
	11:54am clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @11:53 on Uzzle Street NW??
	♥ 11:54am PNX: ↳ Listener Baby @11:38 I never miss Surface Noise - I wouldn't know how to start my week otherwise. That's what clued me in to the tour.
	♥ 11:54am evancuts: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:44 AMC at Garden State Plaza Mall in Paramus is the best IMAX in all of NJ bar none. But Lincoln Ct in NYC is truly next level.
	11:54am gf2002: Norm Macdonald - Kojak & Prostitutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMt7C3COiVM
	♥ 11:54am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:53 No suh - it was sung as a male/female duet. www.youtube.com...
	11:55am clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @11:53 i believe that Stinkfinger recorded there?
	11:55am Jimmy Wipper: ↳ clarke @11:54 Of course!
	♥ 11:55am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ ike̶̬̕ @11:53 My tee vee (Samsung) has a bunch of channels like that. They've recently added a Letterman channel.
	11:55am clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @11:55 how the hell ya been?!?
	♥ 11:55am Alan in Marblehead: ↳ Song: "Baion Blues" by "Bola Sete" Best song ever?
	11:56am gf2002: ↳ egould @11:52 They need Mannix and Cannon on that list too!
	11:56am Jimmy Wipper: ↳ clarke @11:55 Just living the life in the hellscape we’re all enjoying these days!
	11:56am clarke: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:55 the hiram bullock days!
	♥ 11:56am Hughie Considine: ↳ gf2002 @11:54 That was lovely.
	♥ 11:56am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "Baion Blues" by "Bola Sete" I have a Bola Sete record. It's on clear red vinyl. Used to have a Luxman linear tracking turntable and it refused to play it.
	♥ 11:57am Pedro in Arlington: If you like old movies, there are tons of mysterious cheap-looking channels on the Roku box. Best way to find themost is to use the Roku search for a particular titles, say "Scarlet Street." Found one channel called Classico that had EVERYTHING from the Godfather to Chaplin. I figured it would get yanked soon. Sure enough it did. Probably servers in Jamaica, hoping to get bought by someone.
	11:57am clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @11:56 good to see yer voice!
	♥ 11:57am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ clarke @11:56 Yes!!
	♥ 11:57am drr: ↳ egould @11:52 Columbo too. I could never catch one from the beginning though. There's also an MST3K channel. For that it's probably better not to catch those from the beginning.
	♥ 11:57am egould: ↳ gf2002 @11:56 Hell yeah. And McCloud. I’d even add Barnaby Jones.
	11:57am gf2002: ↳ clarke @11:56 Hiram, Steve Jordan, and Will Lee...one of the best bands ever assembled
	11:58am clarke: ↳ drr @11:57 you can watch all the early Columbo's in order on netflix - if you get that.
	♥ 11:58am Hughie Considine: Did these Jesus freaks have long hair and drive a chartreuse microbus, by any chance?
	♥ 11:58am WoodsOfMaine: There's a website that shows all of these weird clips...I think Fabio recommended it...dang it, can't recall.
	11:58am Williw: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:41 He has Medicare and made more money than I ever will
	11:58am SeanG: Jesus freaks out in the street
	11:58am Listener Baby: Baby, half the country is in a cult.
	11:59am clarke: ↳ gf2002 @11:57 not that i hate sid mcginnis, but the show wasn't as out-there in general after hiram left.
	11:59am gf2002: ↳ egould @11:57 Yes! Barnaby Jones became a much better show any time Lee Meriwether was on the screen.
	11:59am Listener Bop Monroe: them crispy critters, better stick 'em behind the dynamite truck.
	♥ 11:59am egould: ↳ drr @11:57 Columbo on Amazon Prime video. I watch it daily. Drives my wife bonkers.
	♥ 11:59am Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:58 It was chartreuse.
	11:59am Mister Dobalina: Aren't the J Dubs, jesus freaks. There always asking me if I want to go to church on Sunday.
	♥ 11:59am Pedro in Arlington: So many films not on screaming services. So check archive.org. For whatever legal reason, they don't get yanked. Set up a mirror display from a laptop to Roku and you can stream to your TV.
	11:59am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "I Can See Clearly Now" by "Amplified Version" Where did you unearth this?
	11:59am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:58 we'll mccall you if it is the case.
	12:00pm Jimmy Wipper: ↳ clarke @11:57 You too, pal! Come to Norfolk one of these years. Swamp Dogg is doing his first hometown show here in years in May!
	12:00pm Listener Bop Monroe: i'm freaking out. help me jezuz!
	12:00pm Williw: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:59 Check Yandex - our friends in Russia dont care about copyrights you can stream almost anything
	12:00pm clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @12:00 wow!! i do hope to git there!
	12:00pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I Can See Clearly Now" by "Amplified Version" This is great. I'm gonna break out my Godspell soundtrack
	♥ 12:01pm the Hurston moor-elf: Micah did a whole show of Jesus freak cult music around xmas. And another show looking at the disturbing history of The All-Saved Freak Band. "Spirit In The Sky", "Jesus Is Just Alright With Me" and "Put Your Hand in the Hand..." were the commercial faces of Jesus freakery. Oh, and "Hair", obviously.
	♥ 12:01pm Pedro in Arlington: And get the free Kanopy and hoopla apps from public libraries for more movies. Screw Bozos and Elmo and all the oligarchs.
	12:01pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @11:59 Those early Letterman 12:30 shows, it was unlike anything on TV. As goofy and as subversive as anything a network would put on air. And that band...wow. I'm glad the archives are finally being made available. If anyone wants to see how tight that original band was, just watch the James Brown performance from '82. Whoa.
	12:01pm PatrickMC: U2 cosplayed as Jesus freaks
	12:01pm Listener Robert: My friend Cary here took me to the Led Zep movie on Tue. at its early showing at the Rockaway (NJ) AMC 16. We sat in the center. I hope that was one of the "official" IMAX screening rooms, because Cary relished that.
	12:02pm Bob: Was it already a sunshiney day when J showed up? Maybe he wasn’t that committed and it was all weather dependent
	12:02pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:01 key-rekt!
	♥ 12:02pm the Hurston moor-elf: ↳ PatrickMC @12:01 more like the punk version than the hippy version tho'
	12:02pm Mark T: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:58 Hahaha. As I was coming into my teens around the early/mid 70’s in South Jersey, I recall the Jesus Freak phenom. And yes, they typically had long hair. And most probably did drive a VW bus. And simultaneously, the Krishna’s hit the masses in large numbers.
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:01 also dude: that was you that hipped me to Mondo Bongo?? if so, thanks! it's cool!
	12:03pm Michael Shelley: ↳ gf2002 @12:01 SOME OF THE BEST TV EVER
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ Bob @12:02 hello bob.
	12:03pm Bob: ↳ Song: "Mal" by "Billy Bond" This is something
	♥ 12:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ gf2002 @12:01 Featuring Larry "Bud" Melman, too.
	♥ 12:04pm Pedro in Arlington: ↳ Williw @12:00 Yes indeed, the whole world is available to stream if you dig a little and don't pay the oligarchs Mark Hurst always warned us about
	♥ 12:04pm drr: I like Columbo, but I don't like to watch them by myself. Most of what I like about the show is co-watchers confidently talking back to the screen about what's going to happen.
	♥ 12:04pm Listener John from NJ: ↳ Song: "I Can See Clearly Now" by "Amplified Version" I started to cringe when the monologue about the guy's conversion experience began. They needed to rehearse more I think.
	12:05pm Listener Bop Monroe: MAL! MAL!
	12:05pm greg g: Funky and groovy! Bringing to mind the Incredible Bongo Band.
	12:05pm PatrickMC: Last week was the scratchy funk show. This is feeling like international roadhouse Saturday.
	12:05pm Greg from ZONE 5: Afternoon, gang!
	12:05pm gf2002: Two of my favorite all-time comedy bits are Larry Bud Melman welcoming bus travelers at Port Authority, and Larry reading Twas The Night Before Christmas as Santa Claus not knowing they slipped him the wrong book, and it wasn't in English. You can hear Letterman almost crying laughing so hard in the background on both of those.
	♥ 12:05pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Mark T @12:02 Twas a weird time -- for me it was all about those Jesus-y songs on the radio that made it real. "And JESUS, he WANTS to go to VENUS..."
	12:05pm Al Garve: ↳ Song: "Shady Grove" by "Kentucky Colonels" Guard Louie Dampier was an ABA favorite from the Kentucky Colonels.
	♥ 12:05pm drr: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:03 What was the Discount Magician's name?

	12:11pm gf2002: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @12:08 Totally agree, Letterman's first 5 years or so and Conan's earlier years were some of the best TV comedy you could find, and it was them doing it despite a lot of criticism from people who just didn't get what they were trying to do. Then it went corporate too far and lost the edge of "hey kids, let's put on a show right here!" that SNL had those first 5 seasons too.
	12:11pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:10 we were fuckin' corn dogs

	♥ 12:13pm drr: ↳ gf2002 @12:11 The Letterman morning show was great when he would have "Mrs. Marv Mendenhall" (Edie McClurg) visit and demonstrate a recipe that DL would at some point blast with a fire extinguisher. Even at the time I thought, "why are they putting this funny show on in the morning, when kids are supposed to be at school? This is going to fail."

I’m not the biggest fan of that stuff. If you are interested in the minutiae of it though, check it out. The McCartney Legacy volume 2
	12:17pm gf2002: ↳ drr @12:13 It was good they gave Letterman the 12:30 am slot, that was the right audience for his comedy. And credit to Merrill Markoe who along with the other Letterman writers had a vision for a show that made fun of the whole format and had a warped enough take on everything that it worked. But yes, whoever decided Letterman was right for morning/daytime TV missed the whole thing by a country mile!
	♥ 12:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Mr. Jones @12:16 I think that's the name of an entire group. But if you also have Dan Hicks solo records, it might be more expedient for you to file under H. But that's archiving, not editorial. On a playlist? You just put "Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks."
	12:17pm Listener Bop Monroe: why am i just now hearing lady madonna in a john cale song?

	12:21pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:18 I'm just trying to imagine the reactions of people in 1980 watching the Today Show, thinking Willard Scott was a hoot or whatever combined with recipes for tasty desserts, and then seeing Letterman's antics later in the morning. The words shock and horror come to mind.

	♥ 12:29pm drr: ↳ Bob @12:23 Oh, I hope they do that. Chris is a talented songwriter too. If it's the name that bothers you, maybe they could go back to their original name, The Wallflowers.
	♥ 12:29pm DaveMiß: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:28 My friend Michael Deas dressed up as Johnny Carson with the sports jacket, but he had a blue curtain on a rod behind him that would open and close. Also with a golf putter… Genius.
	12:29pm gf2002: ↳ Bob @12:23 I saw the lineup for a festival in September where Fountains Of Wayne was playing, along with a handful of other 90's/00's bands whose lead singers are no longer alive, and honestly the FOW listing threw me a bit. On one side is the "it's all about the music", along with the band members often needing an income and touring is the only way to generate that in today's music biz. On the other side, it's odd in a way.

	12:43pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Hearts In Her Eyes" by "Records, The" I vaguely remember this song. Got a little airplay. I saw the Records opening for the Cars in Central Park in around 79. They were better than the headliners!
	12:43pm Listener Bop Monroe: yo squints. agreed.
	12:44pm Michael Shelley: ↳ PatrickMC @12:43 was at that show too!
	12:44pm dk50b: Agree we should accept the re-formed Fountains of Wayne. That said Adam Schlesinger was half of the original band's creative force, and his solo work like That Thing You Do! are power pop classics. Anytime I hear them reminds he may not have died if Trump hadn't chosen to deny COVID's threat, but that's my issue.

	12:51pm dk50b: Despite my feelings on Adam's death I try hard not to a ascribe political without proof. That said, I can't help but think musical polymath Scott Miller committed suicide because the IRS was hounding him for the relative pennies he may have owed, while they've been directed to ignore the super wealthy's tax avoidance.

	♥ 12:54pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Your Lies" by "Shelby Lynne" Man... I remember when this album came out, and I almost couldn't listen to anything else for months. Her albums before and after it were good, but not compelling like this one.
	12:54pm Kent: Don’t forget to add that fab Rick Nelson song to your playlist, Michael!
	♥ 12:54pm Hughie Considine: ↳ dk50b @12:51 I think it was more complicated than that. He stopped taking his meds.
	12:54pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:54 yeah, then she kinda 'dissipated'
	12:55pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:54 definitely more going on, but i wasn't going to say.
	♥ 12:55pm radioronan: Thanks Michael..cheers y'all!

	♥ 12:57pm tadpoles: ↳ Song: "Fugue Cm" by "Swingle Singers, The" Enjoyed the show today ...thanks Michael. The Swingle Singers made a neat cameo on a Procal Harum song...forget the name of it. Cheers
	12:57pm dk50b: There's so much to embrace as uniquely sardonic from Late Night. Agree with everything, but the cadre of NBC veterans added the frosting on the cake. Pete Fatovich's Welcome Wagon (So you just moved to NY? Who gives a rat's ass!) always hit just right.
	12:58pm Michael Shelley: ↳ FeelingHappy @12:56 For me and other people who dont like liars
	♥ 12:58pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:55 yup indeed. Feel better, bud.

	♥ 12:58pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:54 This album, the Minus 5/Young Fresh Fellows "Let the War Against Music Begin", and the Swag album (a forgotten obscure classic now) did that to me, and all around the same time.
	12:58pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:58 thenk yaw

	11:00am Scott from Boston: Morning all!
	♥ 11:00am Handy Haversack: Betting on "Some" by Gems as the first track. Any takers?
	♥ 11:01am Frank In Queens: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:00 You sonofabitch!
	♥ 11:01am Ciggy: Hi Mikey What's in store for us today
	♥ 11:01am egould: I just Googled “Cleveland Clambake”. Very NSFW.
	11:02am Cooh John: Hello Michael and #1ers. I would never bet against you, Handy.
	11:04am Bri The Beatnik: ↳ Song: "Some" by "Gems" Elvis Costello? Just saw him on TFI Friday last night!

	11:05am Michael Shelley: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:00 Fishy
	♥ 11:05am Steve Del Sol: Pow Pow Now!!

	♥ 11:06am steveo: got arrested once for telling a co-worker, I'm gonna shake your tamborine
	11:06am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "After Midnight" by "J.J. Cale" Instant replay!
	11:07am Mr. Jones: ↳ Song: "After Midnight" by "J.J. Cale" After midnight I'll be sleeping on the couch After midnight, my tongue'll be just hangin' out
	11:08am greg g: Morning Michael & All You # 1’s!!! Hope St Valentine brought you some seeets!
	11:09am greg g: Not seats but sweets 🍫 🍭!
	♥ 11:10am McGroovey: ↳ egould @11:01 I just Googled “Cleveland Clambake”, and I couldn't find anything NSFW. Clambakes are a thing in the Syracuse area where I grew up. They would differ from clambakes anywhere else, because in Central NY, clambakes feature salt potatoes. Central NY clambakes are quite SFW. But I suspect I must be talking about a different kind of clambake. My mind is too pure to conceive of what that might be.
	11:11am Mr. Jones: ↳ Song: "Move Over And Let Me Dance (pt1)" by "Isley Broth... The Hendrix playing here reminds me of the backing tracks for Lightnin' Rod's "Doriella Du Fontaine"
	11:11am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Move Over And Let Me Dance (pt1)" by "Isley Broth... Ron great as always. A lot Jiminess in there
	11:12am berbo: move over and let Jimi play.
	11:12am Mr. Jones: ↳ McGroovey @11:10 Downstate they can go bad in a minute. Coupla guys show up with razor clams and an attitude, and it's ON!
	11:15am Mister Dobalina: ↳ Song: "Cachucha Bacana" by "Afrosound" Diggin these sounds. Have a feeling Rob W. would also approve.
	11:15am OnTheTrain: morning gang
	11:16am regular guy: This is a version of a vallenato recorded by alejo duran in the 1960s or 70s. Alejo is like the biggest star of vallenato. Vallenato is a pre-cumvia Colombian music style.
	♥ 11:18am steveo: how does one spell woppa woppa chewba?
	♥ 11:19am steveo: *boppa
	♥ 11:19am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Ele E Minha Menina" by "Os Carbonos" I think it's Paul McCartney on backing vocals. And he's eating a carrot.
	♥ 11:21am myron feld: ↳ Song: "We'll Try" by "Seely Jurgens Band" The verse reminds of a song on Redd Kross's "Neurotica," the title of which I cannot recall.
	11:21am Scott from Boston: Wow, accurate Michael. Bread anytime is great.
	11:21am Moammar: ↳ Song: "We'll Try" by "Seely Jurgens Band" The soft rock revival is upon is. Seems to go with all those terrible 1980s glasses that are making a comeback.
	11:22am Crownless Gander: Lead vocals a bit like Left Banke, maybe?
	11:23am P-90: DANELECTRO BASS DEPT. . By chance this week I came across a couple of posts that would be of interest to those who might still be curious about the Danelectro “six-string bass” guitar and how it came to be viewed by record producers and arrangers as an instrument distinct from the Fender-style electric (four-string) bass. . https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1022820259873332&id=100064361036882 . https://reverb.com/news/danelectros-ub-2-and-the-birth-of-6-string-basses
	11:25am Michael Shelley: ↳ P-90 @11:23 THANKS!
	♥ 11:26am Hughie Considine: Apparently he played "Temporary Secretary."
	11:27am berbo: Adrian Belew got his start playing Beatles covers in high school.
	11:27am Listener Bop Monroe: the seperation is great. these skunks don't stink!
	♥ 11:27am egould: ↳ Song: "The Night Before" by "Skunks, The" Just a little wacky.
	11:27am Listener Baby: Skunks hold their own.
	11:28am Mark T: Greetings from Tempe, AZ
	♥ 11:29am PNX: Going to see Cowboy Junkies in Newark tonight. Anybody have Portuguese restaurant recommendations?
	11:29am Moammar: ↳ PNX @11:29 Marisqueira Seabra
	♥ 11:30am Steve Del Sol: Aren't we all just wandering the streets, Mike?
	11:30am Listener Bop Monroe: "LSD is the bomb!"
	11:30am gf2002: Cue the 45rpm of the song "LSD-25" by The Gamblers, recorded in 1960 when it was still legal.
	11:30am mr_donutsu: Ah, the ol’ LSD Monkey
	♥ 11:30am Hughie Considine: Lots of kids I knew took LSD pretty often in high school and none ended up shells of themselves, although some became Trump supporters.
	11:31am ira: I feel mentally sick every time I look at the newspaper, but maybe I've just been dosed.
	♥ 11:31am McGroovey: There was a lot of LSD (and mescaline) around where I grew up when I was a teenager. My friends were mostly into it, but they told me I shouldn't, and I believed them, so I never have. That's fine with me.
	♥ 11:31am egould: ↳ Song: "L.S.D." by "Wendell Austin" Did Rex lend this 45 to you, Michael? This is lunkhead rocknroll.
	11:31am SecretSquirrel: An LSD monkey on his back!?!
	11:31am Bob: Good morning, everyone. And Clarke! Snow is a flying in the Mitten
	11:32am ptc: The writer of that song obviously never used acid.
	11:32am No Big Thing in Chicago: Introduced to that track by Tex Edwards of the Nervebreakers on one of his excellent solo LPs.
	11:32am Listener Bop Monroe: ↳ Song: "L.S.D." by "Wendell Austin" i was a stupid hippie-wannabe. did a lot in my late teens. stopped myself in senior year after i looked up 'whatever happened to syd barret?' and re-listened to saucerful of secrets. then i went punk
	♥ 11:33am PNX: ↳ Moammar @11:29 Looks good - thanks!
	♥ 11:33am timurf: ↳ Song: "Make A Little Love" by "Lowell Fulson" Best Valentines Day (weekend) song EV-uh!
	♥ 11:33am Hoboken Jack: Good morning Michael, Baby, McGroove, Frank (hey i was in Queens last night, Trans-Pecos), Handy, Bri, everybody!
	11:33am ira: What are you filing when the letter after FULSO- affects the order? Asking for a friend.
	11:33am Listener Baby: ↳ PNX @11:29 Never liked that band. Then I listened to Baby Joe’s interview with their leader. I have new found respect for them. Please give a report next week.
	11:34am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Make A Little Love" by "Lowell Fulson" Roadhouse was a genre
	11:34am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Make A Little Love" by "Lowell Fulson" $50 process. what is that in today’s dollars?
	11:35am berbo: I'm sure the Skunks are long gone. But if you make your way up to Thiensville, WI next week you can catch Justin Timberlake.
	11:35am gf2002: For all the acid casualties we hear about in the rock world, John Lennon seemed to be relatively unscathed after taking probably as much pure LSD in the span of a few years as any musician or celeb
	11:35am clarke: hey now! i was unavoidably detained.
	11:35am Mr. Jones: I figured it was supposed to be Sandy Perlman
	11:36am clarke: yeah, but i bet they are better off for not screwing with pearlman at at that time!
	♥ 11:37am PNX: ↳ Listener Baby @11:33 They were an important part of my teenage love story with my wife - hence a nice Valentines Day date. I'll report back!

	♥ 11:38am myron feld: Led Zep movie: very good documentary, great interview and back stories, but enough with the bowed guitar and the yowling. And I say that as someone who LOVED LZ as a youth, saw them three times, etc etc.
	11:38am ledzeppelinsucks: Led Zeppelelin and ranch dressing should be drop kicked into oblivion.
	♥ 11:39am Joey C says: Hi Michael. I saw the Becoming LZ doc in the only AMC Imax Theater I could find while travelling near Harrisburg PA. I was alone in the theater, 10 pm show, and I enjoyed the film just fine in row D, Seat 11. A large tub of buttered popcorn helped.
	11:39am clarke: I Love You Again - brilliant flick!
	11:39am Mailman Tom: I don't like Led Zeppelin either, especially Robert Plant's high, screechy voice.

	11:45am Frank In Queens: @Woods that’s the only sensible thing to do with ranch dressing.
	♥ 11:45am egould: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:43 Bottled salad dressing is awful. Make your own.

	♥ 11:48am egould: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:47 Seems like you have a dilemma. Godspeed.
	11:48am Mister Dobalina: I find it kinda odd that egg prices are what they are now, but chicken meat really hasn't fluctuated much. Not at least around my way.
	♥ 11:48am Hughie Considine: If pressed, I like my chicken fryin'-size.

	11:51am PatrickMC: Have you found the Alfred Hitchcock Presents Baywatch channel?
	11:51am Mister Dobalina: The Mystery Science Theater 3000 channel on Roku got me through a good chunk of the pandemic.
	♥ 11:52am egould: The “Crime Channel” shows Rockford, Kojak, and Quincy. At least that was what they played last week when I was visiting my in-laws and watching tv.
	11:52am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:51 all i have is water. need to get to the sto'!
	♥ 11:52am Hughie Considine: The Lawrence Welk version of "One Toke Over the Line" would fit in this set.
	11:52am Jim from Tranquility: I’ve been on a Kojak kick on Roku the last couple weeks it gets addicting
	11:52am R.H.: i believe this was the theme song to a certain website based around partying with lemons....
	11:52am Listener Bop Monroe: what a good looking cop! www.discogs.com...
	11:53am PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I You Wanna Be Happy" by "Soul Cop, The" Wisdom like a clavinet transcends eras

	♥ 11:54am evancuts: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:44 AMC at Garden State Plaza Mall in Paramus is the best IMAX in all of NJ bar none. But Lincoln Ct in NYC is truly next level.

	11:56am Jimmy Wipper: ↳ clarke @11:55 Just living the life in the hellscape we’re all enjoying these days!
	11:56am clarke: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:55 the hiram bullock days!
	♥ 11:56am Hughie Considine: ↳ gf2002 @11:54 That was lovely.
	♥ 11:56am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "Baion Blues" by "Bola Sete" I have a Bola Sete record. It's on clear red vinyl. Used to have a Luxman linear tracking turntable and it refused to play it.
	♥ 11:57am Pedro in Arlington: If you like old movies, there are tons of mysterious cheap-looking channels on the Roku box. Best way to find themost is to use the Roku search for a particular titles, say "Scarlet Street." Found one channel called Classico that had EVERYTHING from the Godfather to Chaplin. I figured it would get yanked soon. Sure enough it did. Probably servers in Jamaica, hoping to get bought by someone.
	11:57am clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @11:56 good to see yer voice!
	♥ 11:57am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ clarke @11:56 Yes!!
	♥ 11:57am drr: ↳ egould @11:52 Columbo too. I could never catch one from the beginning though. There's also an MST3K channel. For that it's probably better not to catch those from the beginning.
	♥ 11:57am egould: ↳ gf2002 @11:56 Hell yeah. And McCloud. I’d even add Barnaby Jones.
	11:57am gf2002: ↳ clarke @11:56 Hiram, Steve Jordan, and Will Lee...one of the best bands ever assembled
	11:58am clarke: ↳ drr @11:57 you can watch all the early Columbo's in order on netflix - if you get that.
	♥ 11:58am Hughie Considine: Did these Jesus freaks have long hair and drive a chartreuse microbus, by any chance?
	♥ 11:58am WoodsOfMaine: There's a website that shows all of these weird clips...I think Fabio recommended it...dang it, can't recall.
	11:58am Williw: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:41 He has Medicare and made more money than I ever will
	11:58am SeanG: Jesus freaks out in the street
	11:58am Listener Baby: Baby, half the country is in a cult.
	11:59am clarke: ↳ gf2002 @11:57 not that i hate sid mcginnis, but the show wasn't as out-there in general after hiram left.
	11:59am gf2002: ↳ egould @11:57 Yes! Barnaby Jones became a much better show any time Lee Meriwether was on the screen.
	11:59am Listener Bop Monroe: them crispy critters, better stick 'em behind the dynamite truck.
	♥ 11:59am egould: ↳ drr @11:57 Columbo on Amazon Prime video. I watch it daily. Drives my wife bonkers.
	♥ 11:59am Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:58 It was chartreuse.
	11:59am Mister Dobalina: Aren't the J Dubs, jesus freaks. There always asking me if I want to go to church on Sunday.
	♥ 11:59am Pedro in Arlington: So many films not on screaming services. So check archive.org. For whatever legal reason, they don't get yanked. Set up a mirror display from a laptop to Roku and you can stream to your TV.
	11:59am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "I Can See Clearly Now" by "Amplified Version" Where did you unearth this?
	11:59am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:58 we'll mccall you if it is the case.
	12:00pm Jimmy Wipper: ↳ clarke @11:57 You too, pal! Come to Norfolk one of these years. Swamp Dogg is doing his first hometown show here in years in May!
	12:00pm Listener Bop Monroe: i'm freaking out. help me jezuz!
	12:00pm Williw: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:59 Check Yandex - our friends in Russia dont care about copyrights you can stream almost anything
	12:00pm clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @12:00 wow!! i do hope to git there!
	12:00pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "I Can See Clearly Now" by "Amplified Version" This is great. I'm gonna break out my Godspell soundtrack
	♥ 12:01pm the Hurston moor-elf: Micah did a whole show of Jesus freak cult music around xmas. And another show looking at the disturbing history of The All-Saved Freak Band. "Spirit In The Sky", "Jesus Is Just Alright With Me" and "Put Your Hand in the Hand..." were the commercial faces of Jesus freakery. Oh, and "Hair", obviously.
	♥ 12:01pm Pedro in Arlington: And get the free Kanopy and hoopla apps from public libraries for more movies. Screw Bozos and Elmo and all the oligarchs.
	12:01pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @11:59 Those early Letterman 12:30 shows, it was unlike anything on TV. As goofy and as subversive as anything a network would put on air. And that band...wow. I'm glad the archives are finally being made available. If anyone wants to see how tight that original band was, just watch the James Brown performance from '82. Whoa.
	12:01pm PatrickMC: U2 cosplayed as Jesus freaks
	12:01pm Listener Robert: My friend Cary here took me to the Led Zep movie on Tue. at its early showing at the Rockaway (NJ) AMC 16. We sat in the center. I hope that was one of the "official" IMAX screening rooms, because Cary relished that.
	12:02pm Bob: Was it already a sunshiney day when J showed up? Maybe he wasn’t that committed and it was all weather dependent
	12:02pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:01 key-rekt!
	♥ 12:02pm the Hurston moor-elf: ↳ PatrickMC @12:01 more like the punk version than the hippy version tho'
	12:02pm Mark T: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:58 Hahaha. As I was coming into my teens around the early/mid 70’s in South Jersey, I recall the Jesus Freak phenom. And yes, they typically had long hair. And most probably did drive a VW bus. And simultaneously, the Krishna’s hit the masses in large numbers.
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:01 also dude: that was you that hipped me to Mondo Bongo?? if so, thanks! it's cool!
	12:03pm Michael Shelley: ↳ gf2002 @12:01 SOME OF THE BEST TV EVER
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ Bob @12:02 hello bob.
	12:03pm Bob: ↳ Song: "Mal" by "Billy Bond" This is something
	♥ 12:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ gf2002 @12:01 Featuring Larry "Bud" Melman, too.
	♥ 12:04pm Pedro in Arlington: ↳ Williw @12:00 Yes indeed, the whole world is available to stream if you dig a little and don't pay the oligarchs Mark Hurst always warned us about
	♥ 12:04pm drr: I like Columbo, but I don't like to watch them by myself. Most of what I like about the show is co-watchers confidently talking back to the screen about what's going to happen.
	♥ 12:04pm Listener John from NJ: ↳ Song: "I Can See Clearly Now" by "Amplified Version" I started to cringe when the monologue about the guy's conversion experience began. They needed to rehearse more I think.
	12:05pm Listener Bop Monroe: MAL! MAL!
	12:05pm greg g: Funky and groovy! Bringing to mind the Incredible Bongo Band.
	12:05pm PatrickMC: Last week was the scratchy funk show. This is feeling like international roadhouse Saturday.
	12:05pm Greg from ZONE 5: Afternoon, gang!
	12:05pm gf2002: Two of my favorite all-time comedy bits are Larry Bud Melman welcoming bus travelers at Port Authority, and Larry reading Twas The Night Before Christmas as Santa Claus not knowing they slipped him the wrong book, and it wasn't in English. You can hear Letterman almost crying laughing so hard in the background on both of those.
	♥ 12:05pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Mark T @12:02 Twas a weird time -- for me it was all about those Jesus-y songs on the radio that made it real. "And JESUS, he WANTS to go to VENUS..."
	12:05pm Al Garve: ↳ Song: "Shady Grove" by "Kentucky Colonels" Guard Louie Dampier was an ABA favorite from the Kentucky Colonels.
	♥ 12:05pm drr: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:03 What was the Discount Magician's name?
	♥ 12:06pm egould: ↳ drr @12:04 I like that the ‘victim’ is usually a total douchebag that deserves to be murdered.

	12:06pm Listener Bop Monroe: me and my brother met mal evans at the very 1st beatlefest and he signed our programs. a nice guy, a bad sad end.
	♥ 12:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: I remember the Doobie Brothers' "Jesus is Just Alright" on the radio.
	♥ 12:08pm Pedro in Arlington: Letterman on NBC was never topped and that includes the 1980 morning show. Same for Conan.
	♥ 12:08pm drr: ↳ egould @12:06 The Donald Pleasence-as-wine-merchant one has that, for sure. Also, the victim in that one looks and dresses like a Ken doll.

	12:08pm clarke: sadly penned by roger mcguinn
	12:09pm Listener Bop Monroe: jesus pop. ugh. another bandwagon at the time everyone hopped on. kept waiting for the rock equivelent of fiddler on the roof to balance that out but it never happened.
	12:09pm PatrickMC: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:07 Jesus freek anthem. Up there with O Happy Day by Edwin Hawkins Singers
	♥ 12:09pm drr: ↳ Song: "That Don't Leave Much Time To Fool Around" by "Ru... this was written by McGuinn? Reminds me of when Velvet Crush covered The Dillards.

	12:10pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:09 yes
	12:10pm Listener Baby: ↳ PatrickMC @12:09 Being slightly generous, maybe?
	♥ 12:10pm prof.fuzz: never forget: the minutemen's "jesus and tequilla"
	♥ 12:10pm egould: ↳ drr @12:08 The one where Dick van Dyke kills his wife. And she berates him the whole time he’s tying her to a chair and pointing a pistol at her face. She just wouldn’t stop.
	12:11pm gf2002: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @12:08 Totally agree, Letterman's first 5 years or so and Conan's earlier years were some of the best TV comedy you could find, and it was them doing it despite a lot of criticism from people who just didn't get what they were trying to do. Then it went corporate too far and lost the edge of "hey kids, let's put on a show right here!" that SNL had those first 5 seasons too.
	12:11pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:10 we were fuckin' corn dogs
	12:11pm Listener Bop Monroe: ↳ Song: "You Sexy Thing" by "Prumes, The Featuring Little ... no bad versions of this!!

	12:12pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:03 It was not me, but I will check it out too! My recommendations are mostly obscure film noirs that I catch on YouTube free channels haha

	12:13pm clarke: ↳ Mailman Tom @12:12 now you are going to have give frank a nickel.

	12:13pm Listener Bop Monroe: :-)
	12:13pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:12 i thot it twas ye! it is worth checking out on Tubi
	♥ 12:13pm drr: ↳ gf2002 @12:11 The Letterman morning show was great when he would have "Mrs. Marv Mendenhall" (Edie McClurg) visit and demonstrate a recipe that DL would at some point blast with a fire extinguisher. Even at the time I thought, "why are they putting this funny show on in the morning, when kids are supposed to be at school? This is going to fail."

	12:14pm clarke: it IS more fun to ask here than look it up! hard agree.
	♥ 12:14pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:13 Otherwise, you're looking at the equivalent of Williams, Hank, feat. Johnny Cash, Jr.
	12:15pm Mark T: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:05 Yeah, it sure was different. Before Cale TV, the “Pet Rock”, lava lamps…. lol
	12:15pm Undress: Does Paul ever play John’s songs at his shows?
	12:16pm AMYGDALA: ↳ Song: "You Sexy Thing" by "Prumes, The Featuring Little ... Should be filed under Dried Plums, The!
	12:16pm Mr. Jones: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:14 What about Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks? "D" "H" ?
	♥ 12:16pm Handy Haversack: But you do need that second comma, MS.
	12:16pm Brian c: Sounds like a titles cover to me

	12:16pm clarke: ↳ Undress @12:15 he has
	12:16pm Brian c: Er Rutles
	12:17pm Bob: I just read that second volume of the massive Macca book series. It covers Wings list after BOTR through the next two records. A bit of a slog honestly. I’m not the biggest fan of that stuff. If you are interested in the minutiae of it though, check it out. The McCartney Legacy volume 2
	12:17pm gf2002: ↳ drr @12:13 It was good they gave Letterman the 12:30 am slot, that was the right audience for his comedy. And credit to Merrill Markoe who along with the other Letterman writers had a vision for a show that made fun of the whole format and had a warped enough take on everything that it worked. But yes, whoever decided Letterman was right for morning/daytime TV missed the whole thing by a country mile!
	♥ 12:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Mr. Jones @12:16 I think that's the name of an entire group. But if you also have Dan Hicks solo records, it might be more expedient for you to file under H. But that's archiving, not editorial. On a playlist? You just put "Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks."
	12:17pm Listener Bop Monroe: why am i just now hearing lady madonna in a john cale song?
	12:17pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "I'll Keep You Satisfied" by "Nite Sobs" Sounds like next weeks show opening song!
	♥ 12:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @12:16 How you feeling? K8's still coughing!
	♥ 12:18pm drr: ↳ egould @12:10 yes, that's the one I saw most recently! you are correct, murder is wrong (it would seem divorce was a much more attractive alternative), but in that case there were mitigating circumstances.
	12:18pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:17 it wasnt that letterman had a choice - that is what was offered him
	♥ 12:18pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ gf2002 @12:17 Definitely one of the top ten reasons for the show's success.
	♥ 12:18pm SecretSquirrel: Vintage Violence! Possibly my favorite John Cale album. That's a no-skip item for sure.
	12:18pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:17 still coughing! a bit better, thanks!
	12:19pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ Song: "Hello There" by "John Cale" Vintage Violence is one of the albums I bought on the strength of its cover. I had a Visible Man set when I was a kid.

	♥ 12:19pm Handy Haversack: ↳ drr @12:18 Hey, drr, I dropped you an e-mail about maybe grabbing lunch in NOLA next week if you're free!
	♥ 12:20pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "Hello There" by "John Cale" I roadied for Cale (John, not J.J.) for a few weeks. Scary guy at the time.
	12:20pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:19 i hope that i am in shape to get down to see ya'll!!
	12:20pm clarke: ↳ myron feld @12:20 wow!
	♥ 12:20pm SecretSquirrel: @Frank Zaatar – yeah, but neither of us had the presence of mind to wear that Visible Man face as a mask.
	12:21pm Mark T: ↳ myron feld @12:20 Really???
	♥ 12:21pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @12:20 I know! Jason Isaac sent me a real nice list of musical happenings next week in case you want to see some tunes. And we'll be hitting parades as well in case you want to join in on that?
	12:21pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:18 I'm just trying to imagine the reactions of people in 1980 watching the Today Show, thinking Willard Scott was a hoot or whatever combined with recipes for tasty desserts, and then seeing Letterman's antics later in the morning. The words shock and horror come to mind.
	♥ 12:21pm Hughie Considine: ↳ myron feld @12:20 I read a good biography of him and he sounded truly out of his mind for several years.
	12:21pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Denise" by "Polo Con Los Apson" Original of this is so #1
	12:21pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ SecretSquirrel @12:20 That's the difference between us and genius.
	♥ 12:22pm SecretSquirrel: ↳ Frank Zaatar @12:21 Sigh.
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:21 yeah, i couldnt wake up in time to catch it!
	12:23pm gf2002: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:18 I had a Letterman "Top Ten" t-shirt back in the day with the list on the back, the Late Show logo on front, and I'd get stopped in random places by people who wanted to read the list. It was a good ice-breaker
	12:23pm Bob: How are people feeling about Fountains of Wayne continuing on without Adam?
	♥ 12:23pm DaveMiß: ↳ clarke @12:20 Clarke! You hitting KDV tonight? Are you sewing K8 & Haney’s MG Indian suits?
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ Bob @12:23 uhmm not great - they already have Look Park, right?
	♥ 12:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ AMYGDALA @12:16 And at least not under "PruMes"!
	12:24pm Listener Baby: ↳ Bob @12:23 Conflicted, but interested?
	12:24pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Bob @12:23 me - excellent
	12:24pm Dennis Diken: Rick Nelson = great artist
	♥ 12:24pm myron feld: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:21 I'm sure my time with him was somewhere in those several years.
	♥ 12:24pm SecretSquirrel: Blood, Sweat & Tears also covered 'Without Her,' during their Al Kooper phase. It's quite a nice version
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ DaveMiß @12:23 naw suh i have a fluenza
	12:24pm Corky Screw: Mike... do a show with all bands from Jersey!
	12:24pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ SecretSquirrel @12:22 Speaking for me at least.
	♥ 12:25pm DaveMiß: ↳ clarke @12:24 Ahh you’re now an influ-encer?
	♥ 12:25pm Montmaster J: A very nice friend who was a writer for the show got me and my girlfriend tix to see the Letterman taping...when we walked in to the studio Will Lee was standing on Dave's desk playing bass. Those were the days.
	12:25pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Dennis Diken @12:24 So good - such a deep catalog!
	♥ 12:25pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "In the Jailhouse Now" by "Webb Pierce" I see what you did there.
	12:25pm clarke: ↳ DaveMiß @12:25 i wouldn't want ANYone to get this!
	12:25pm Bob: ↳ clarke @12:24 Not sure. I thought he was kinda on that last one. It’s not the best
	12:26pm Listener Baby: ↳ Dennis Diken @12:24 Double. Been gorging your archives whilst riding the roads of California. So completely excellent. Miss you, and hope you and yours are grooving’
	♥ 12:26pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:25 That's the Ardsley Spidermans.
	12:26pm SeanG: get thee to a sauna clarke, it'll burn that shit right out
	12:26pm gf2002: I meant "Late Night With David Letterman" logo, not "late show" as this was in the 80's...when he moved to CBS I stopped watching regularly. I also had Dave's "Book Of Top Ten Lists" and other Letterman schwag back in the day.
	♥ 12:26pm DaveMiß: ↳ clarke @12:25 Sorry to hear. Mamou chicken soup for uou
	12:26pm clarke: ↳ SeanG @12:26 yeah, i live in a sauna - new orleans!
	♥ 12:27pm Handy Haversack: ↳ gf2002 @12:26 Top Ten Punchlines to Scottish Dirty Jokes has stuck in my brain through the years from that one.
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 Things You Don't Want To Hear After Sex
	♥ 12:27pm DaveMiß: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 Got your costumes ready?
	12:28pm Michael: Sly doc is amazing. And very depressing
	♥ 12:28pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @12:27 PF63
	♥ 12:28pm common: the sly doc was pretty great
	♥ 12:28pm Handy Haversack: ↳ DaveMiß @12:27 Well, a shirt with a collar and a sports coat. For me, that's deep disguise!
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:28 that was 11
	12:29pm Tippsy Russel: Where's the Sly Doc?
	12:29pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Take My Advice" by "Sly And The Family Stone" Sly was so super versatile and creative. LSD?
	♥ 12:29pm drr: ↳ Bob @12:23 Oh, I hope they do that. Chris is a talented songwriter too. If it's the name that bothers you, maybe they could go back to their original name, The Wallflowers.
	♥ 12:29pm DaveMiß: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:28 My friend Michael Deas dressed up as Johnny Carson with the sports jacket, but he had a blue curtain on a rod behind him that would open and close. Also with a golf putter… Genius.
	12:29pm gf2002: ↳ Bob @12:23 I saw the lineup for a festival in September where Fountains Of Wayne was playing, along with a handful of other 90's/00's bands whose lead singers are no longer alive, and honestly the FOW listing threw me a bit. On one side is the "it's all about the music", along with the band members often needing an income and touring is the only way to generate that in today's music biz. On the other side, it's odd in a way.
	♥ 12:30pm DaveMiß: ↳ drr @12:29 Happy KdV!
	♥ 12:30pm SecretSquirrel: ↳ Frank Zaatar @12:24 Nah, I'll include myself too
	♥ 12:31pm Hughie Considine: They have every right and lots of good reasons to play their music -- it's no disrespect to Adam.
	♥ 12:31pm listener phat in Lincoln: Hey all!
	♥ 12:31pm Montmaster J: I liked Chris' Look Park LP...Looking forward to seeing them.
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:31 hey! what's the temp there?
	12:32pm Michael Shelley: ↳ PatrickMC @12:29 I think the doc addresses what was going on in that dept
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ Montmaster J @12:31 good rekkid
	12:32pm Moammar: Lotta clicky stars today. Good day for star clicking.
	♥ 12:33pm common: ↳ Tippsy Russel @12:29 hulu
	♥ 12:33pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @12:32 It's a balmy 23°
	12:33pm Stevel: Great song! FoW!
	♥ 12:33pm DaveMiß: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:32 Hey did you get your postcards back?
	12:33pm Listener Bop Monroe: i'm looking at you, pink floyd...
	12:33pm Heathcliff: You correct Michael!
	12:34pm clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:33 that's crazy.. it is freaking 81 here, right now.
	♥ 12:34pm Joe R.: ↳ Song: "Baby I've Changed" by "Fountains Of Wayne" I dunno, the FoW reunion reminds me a lot like The Smithereens carrying on after Pat passed away. Keeping the songs alive.
	12:34pm Mark T: ↳ Moammar @12:32 Yep, love the clicky star. And I often clicky star the episode as well.
	♥ 12:34pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @12:34 Woah
	12:35pm clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:34 yeah - i mean, i don't complain too much, but yeah.
	♥ 12:35pm drr: ↳ DaveMiß @12:30 Oh yeah! That means I have to leave the house, probably!
	12:35pm clarke: 7/10
	♥ 12:35pm egould: Bought tickets to the Cactus Blossoms on March 15 at Biltmore Cabaret in Vancouver, BC. First heard them on the Michael Shelley show on WFMU.
	12:35pm Moammar: Füße bongos!
	12:35pm gf2002: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 "Top Ten Body Parts or Van Pattens"...#1 was "Dick"
	12:35pm Michael Shelley: ↳ egould @12:35 NICE MOVE!
	12:36pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:35 not necessarily.
	♥ 12:36pm egould: ↳ clarke @12:35 East German judge…
	12:36pm clarke: ↳ egould @12:36 nichts!
	♥ 12:36pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:36 ParadeCam?
	12:37pm PatrickMC: There is such a thing as too many sha la la las
	12:37pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:36 ha ha ha - there ya geaux
	12:37pm Michael Shelley: ↳ DaveMiß @12:33 The station hasnt decided on quantity yet, so I have to wait to order them... will keep you posted!
	12:38pm Cracka toe a: Nice Tremelo...
	12:38pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:37 dave miss does great graphics!
	♥ 12:38pm Pedro in Arlington: Since Chris always sang lead, the FoW survivors will sound like the original. Hey, we all need to pay bills and there are probably enough frat boys in their 50s willing to see the "Stacey's Mom" band at a festival or club. I'll go too, hoping for a rare performance of the better "Strapped for Cash" and "New Routine."
	12:38pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Jambalaya" by "Rod Bernard" Nice!
	12:39pm hectic: ordering stuff on ebay made me so mad i threw a chair. PS enjoying the show
	♥ 12:39pm DaveMiß: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:37 Amen. I will cross my fingers and pray to who shot the Lala Oliver Morgan.
	12:40pm clarke: that was you! no, you!
	12:40pm Michael Shelley: ↳ hectic @12:39 What happened? (ebay user is curious)!
	♥ 12:40pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @12:35 Looks like it'll be a lot cooler for us next week!
	12:40pm gf2002: Blind Melon is also playing Oceans Calling this year, The Beach Boys played last year and were very good...more surprising than Fountains Of Wayne on the bill is Devo! I had no idea they were touring in 2025
	12:40pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:40 it's going to be a roller-coaster - bring shorts, bring thermals.
	12:41pm Creature: ↳ hectic @12:39 LOL
	♥ 12:41pm newton: ↳ hectic @12:39 that's how they get you to buy a new chair
	♥ 12:41pm Squints: ↳ Listener Bop Monroe @12:16 Not for nothing, that LP "Presenting... The Fabulous Knickerbockers," is pretty solid throughout. They should have had more than the one hit.
	♥ 12:41pm Montmaster J: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @12:38 100%. Would love to hear Sick Day.
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ Squints @12:41 they did.. in toledo!
	♥ 12:42pm Squints: That 1979ish Searchers record had a neat Tom Petty song, "It's Too Late."
	12:43pm Jumbo: Saw the Searchers at the Felt Forum in the 80's... WOW!
	12:43pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @12:21 NBV
	12:43pm gf2002: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @12:38 I'd love to hear them do Hackensack, such a great song
	12:43pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Hearts In Her Eyes" by "Records, The" I vaguely remember this song. Got a little airplay. I saw the Records opening for the Cars in Central Park in around 79. They were better than the headliners!
	12:43pm Listener Bop Monroe: yo squints. agreed.
	12:44pm Michael Shelley: ↳ PatrickMC @12:43 was at that show too!
	12:44pm dk50b: Agree we should accept the re-formed Fountains of Wayne. That said Adam Schlesinger was half of the original band's creative force, and his solo work like That Thing You Do! are power pop classics. Anytime I hear them reminds he may not have died if Trump hadn't chosen to deny COVID's threat, but that's my issue.
	♥ 12:44pm Fuzzy: ↳ Song: "Hearts In Her Eyes" by "Records, The" From stars to hearts.
	12:44pm hectic: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:40 i have a gift card for ninety dollars so i bought some converse, then i was trying to buy a harrington jacket but almost every one has a size chart that makes no sense where the chest size 5XL is 30 ". every time i would find one that looked alright it wouldn't have my size. then i finally found one that seemed ok but the shipping cost was 50 dollars! it added up to more than my gift card. also i recently bought a t shirt that cost 21 dollars but after i bought it i found another one that was 8 dollars. so i canceled the order which took weeks. then i tried to order the 8 dollar one today but turns out, when you choose a size it just becomes 21 dollars. so there was NO REASON TO CANCEL THE ORDER. i just get mad at technology.
	12:45pm PatrickMC: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:44 Wollman Rink Dr. Pepper fest. $4.50!
	12:45pm Michael Shelley: ↳ gf2002 @12:40 playing bLYN soon
	12:45pm hectic: ↳ newton @12:41 lol that's funny
	♥ 12:45pm Montmaster J: ↳ dk50b @12:44 re Adam: I've been listening to Ivy a lot recently....reccomend.
	♥ 12:45pm Pedro in Arlington: Re FoW: Nobody complains when Paul sings to a giant video screen of Dr. O'Boogie. Maybe the new tour (?) will celebrate and generate new interest in Adam as the genius he was. Bet his family would love that.
	12:46pm clarke: ↳ Montmaster J @12:45 oh my yes! so underrated.
	♥ 12:46pm Handy Haversack: ↳ gf2002 @12:43 Sent that to a younger person on my softball team who lives there. She'd never heard it before!
	12:47pm Michael Shelley: ↳ PatrickMC @12:45 before those shows moved to the pier
	♥ 12:47pm JG: Best thing on Late Night w DL was Chris Eliot. Marlon Brando doing Banana song... man under the seats..
	12:48pm Michael Shelley: ↳ JG @12:47 Chris "testing" oil - funniest thing ever on tv
	♥ 12:48pm Pedro in Arlington: ↳ dk50b @12:44 Your issue is an insane nation's disgrace.
	♥ 12:48pm egould: ↳ JG @12:47 Man under the seats…
	12:48pm Michael Shelley: www.youtube.com...
	♥ 12:49pm JeremyB: Hanging out with my 9 year old nephew and he keeps turning off this show to play Eminem... Kids today have no taste.
	♥ 12:49pm Squints: ↳ Bob @12:23 I don't mind. I'm glad for the other guys if there's a payday for them.
	12:49pm gf2002: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:46 Brilliant song! That whole album is terrific.
	12:50pm Listener Bop Monroe: ↳ hectic @12:44 no way to tell what one gets online. after a bunch of bogus crap, was lucky this week, got faux red cons fleece lined fit exactly and totally comfy so far. score. temu pricing can be a blessing and a curse.
	♥ 12:50pm Dennis Diken: The Smithereens opened for The Searchers at The Bitter End in 1983. they were great! a true thrill.
	♥ 12:51pm McGroovey: ↳ dk50b @12:44 Amen
	♥ 12:51pm Pedro in Arlington: ↳ JG @12:47 AND Elliot doing a perfect Shatner doing Rocket Man decades before YouTube could show the Shatner original.
	12:51pm Frank In Queens: @JeremyB tell him to wait his turn.
	♥ 12:51pm Squints: ↳ drr @12:29 Will they have any other dates besides the two festivals?
	12:51pm gf2002: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:48 Haha, yes! He also once taste-tested dog food on the show, I think he was wearing a white lab coat for that one too!
	12:51pm buzzmansaw: Last song was by The London Souls! I know those guys
	12:51pm clarke: ↳ Dennis Diken @12:50 i liked that album they had out around then!
	12:51pm dk50b: Despite my feelings on Adam's death I try hard not to a ascribe political without proof. That said, I can't help but think musical polymath Scott Miller committed suicide because the IRS was hounding him for the relative pennies he may have owed, while they've been directed to ignore the super wealthy's tax avoidance.
	♥ 12:51pm Dennis Diken: ↳ Listener Baby @12:26 Baby! doing good. THANKS SO MUCH! you're the best!
	12:52pm PatrickMC: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:48 Watched Manhunter the other night and was so surprised to see Chris Elliott suddenly appear in a scene. Cracked me up, kind of like when Bill Murray does dramatic roles.
	♥ 12:52pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, MS! clarke, see you soon, I hope! Feel better!
	♥ 12:52pm egould: And because my musical tastes are “freeform”, I just bought tickets to Melvins, Napalm Death, and Hard-ons in Seattle at the Showbox on June 2.
	12:52pm Faux Jean: We did miss one
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:52 see ya, i hope!
	♥ 12:54pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Your Lies" by "Shelby Lynne" Man... I remember when this album came out, and I almost couldn't listen to anything else for months. Her albums before and after it were good, but not compelling like this one.
	12:54pm Kent: Don’t forget to add that fab Rick Nelson song to your playlist, Michael!
	♥ 12:54pm Hughie Considine: ↳ dk50b @12:51 I think it was more complicated than that. He stopped taking his meds.
	12:54pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:54 yeah, then she kinda 'dissipated'
	12:55pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:54 definitely more going on, but i wasn't going to say.
	♥ 12:55pm radioronan: Thanks Michael..cheers y'all!
	♥ 12:56pm egould: Thanks Michael. Number one after number one after number one.
	12:56pm Michael Shelley: 100% with you - I think of his pointless death every time too!
	12:56pm FeelingHappy: Awww, poor Michael. Gonna be another rough four years
	12:56pm Listener Bop Monroe: this was a lot of fun as always. thnx DJMS and all for letting mehang witchus'. swingle this. "a ha ha ha ha ha, ever get the fellin' you been cheated?"
	♥ 12:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Apropos of nothing, but I found "The Devil and Daniel Johnston" on some TV channel last night. First time I've seen it. Thanks, Michael!
	12:57pm gf2002: ↳ Song: "Fugue Cm" by "Swingle Singers, The" Reminds me that "South American Getaway" might be due for another spin in the coming weeks!
	12:57pm clarke: thanks all!!
	♥ 12:57pm DaveMiß: Get well Clarke!
	12:57pm Mark T: Great show thanks
	12:57pm clarke: danke!
	♥ 12:57pm tadpoles: ↳ Song: "Fugue Cm" by "Swingle Singers, The" Enjoyed the show today ...thanks Michael. The Swingle Singers made a neat cameo on a Procal Harum song...forget the name of it. Cheers
	12:57pm dk50b: There's so much to embrace as uniquely sardonic from Late Night. Agree with everything, but the cadre of NBC veterans added the frosting on the cake. Pete Fatovich's Welcome Wagon (So you just moved to NY? Who gives a rat's ass!) always hit just right.
	12:58pm Michael Shelley: ↳ FeelingHappy @12:56 For me and other people who dont like liars
	♥ 12:58pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:55 yup indeed. Feel better, bud.
	12:58pm Kent: Number one show as usual👏
	♥ 12:58pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:54 This album, the Minus 5/Young Fresh Fellows "Let the War Against Music Begin", and the Swag album (a forgotten obscure classic now) did that to me, and all around the same time.
	12:58pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:58 thenk yaw
	12:58pm Listener Bop Monroe: gurgle gurgle!!
	12:59pm Dano59: that Shelby Lynne track is a grabber
