	♥ 3:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ker bangy!
	♥ 3:04pm listener james from westwood: Sounds like the theme music of an anime I'd have watched every week as a lad. By which I mean today.
	3:04pm P-90: こんにちは ! Sheila-San!
	♥ 3:05pm Guido from Cologne: Hello Sheila & everyone!
	3:06pm djsheilab: こんにちは、P-90 + 皆さん！
	3:07pm statoj: Cowabunga Oom Bop Bop!, It's Friday! Welcome back, Sheila!
	3:07pm Jesse K: oh no way, I had this Selda song running in my head this morning!
	3:08pm Starwick: Hello Sheila! Hello everyone!
	♥ 3:08pm Guido from Cologne: Elections in Turey tomorrow! let's hope for the best! Very suitable!
	♥ 3:09pm nickybones: This tune is amazin'.
	3:09pm djsheilab: Hello Guido, Starwick, Jesse K, Statoj, Cheyenne, James from Westwood + Michael N! I seem to have unconsciously picked up the Turkish vibes.
	3:11pm statoj: Guido, its either your animated icon or this music, but I feel woozy (in a good way). :)
	♥ 3:11pm Guido from Cologne: did i say the offices of the Türkuola label (original label of Selda's LP) were somwhere around the corner from my home?
	♥ 3:12pm Guido from Cologne: @statoj :-)
	♥ 3:15pm timurf: Happy Hallow-eve all!
	3:15pm djsheilab: I adore Niki & the Dove (Swedish duo) but was s bit perplexed when I first heard this new one. But after a few listens....WOAH. It's definitely a grower.
	3:15pm statoj: What does "ince ince" mean?
	3:16pm P-90: This Niki and the Dove is a beautiful thing.
	♥ 3:17pm listener james from westwood: I'd have figured this Niki & the Dove for a bit of late-80s sweetness that winged its way under the radar to today. The cover art certainly has an 80s look!
	3:17pm Marie: I'm loving this Niki & the Dove. Tx!
	3:17pm P-90: It sounds like they were listening to African pop
	3:18pm Todd-o-phonic: "Walking Through A Cemetary"! So great...haven't heard it in far too long!
	♥ 3:19pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: I love this Liz Damon song so much — and I think you're pretty okay, too.
	♥ 3:20pm timurf: I'm with Todd on that - I think Terre T turned me on to that tune
	♥ 3:24pm Guido from Cologne: Tell me someone how to get the Girls At Our Best! single! I have the LP, but this is their best song! teenage memories! :-)
	3:24pm Cheyenne: GIRLS AT OUR BEST!! YES!
	3:25pm djsheilab: YAY for Girls At Our Best! Bringing joy to the world!
	3:26pm Michael N: Liking this
	♥ 3:27pm Gaylord Fields: @Guido from Cologne: The singles are better than the LP.
	♥ 3:28pm Barkevious Shabazz: That Girls single is on their singles comp which is widely available. Great band!
	3:28pm BennettCap: Making me cry, Sheila B.
	3:28pm Michael N: this song was sung at my bar mitzvah back in 79, nice
	3:29pm statoj: Roberta! Truly the most beautiful interpretation of this song.
	3:29pm djsheilab: Let's cry together BennetCap!
	♥ 3:29pm Barkevious Shabazz: Their "Politics" single kicks so much ass.
	3:30pm JakeGhould: Not giving Roberta any more flack. I’m the first one to think of that.
	3:30pm djsheilab: TOPT + timurf! That Claudine record is tops. How ever did they think that should follow "Party Lights"?!! Her career sabotage is our Halloween treat!
	3:31pm P-90: Roberta. I'm ancient enough to remember when this was the #1 ichiban song in the whole US
	3:32pm P-90: Everyone was walking around humming this.
	3:33pm David Shortell: Cinema-goers who discovered that Flack song when "Play Misty For Me" opened had to wait a few months for the record to come out!
	3:34pm #4: hawaii 5-0?
	3:34pm MONEYBAG$: Rocky..?
	♥ 3:34pm Mick: Were you just singing the theme to Rocky?
	♥ 3:34pm Joe McG: Sounds like the theme from "Rocky," Sheila.
	♥ 3:34pm Guido from Cologne: singles comp.? not on discogs, not on amazon
	3:34pm Marshall Stacks: The theme from the movie Rocky.
	3:36pm P-90: @Sheila, could you hum a little more of that TV theme, a little slower/clearer maybe?
	3:36pm Mary Wing: Here, Guido: http://shop.cherryred.co.uk/cherryred-exd.asp?id=1031
	♥ 3:36pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: The song's implication is that all the folks buried at the cemetery Claudine is walking through are those who wouldn't let her into the party.
	3:37pm modchick65: I can honestly say that listening to this show is, so far, the high point of my day.
	♥ 3:38pm Uncle Michael: I'd try this record at 33 1/3.
	♥ 3:38pm Gaylord Fields: Sounds like Witchie-Poo singing Mickey Lee Lane. In other words, I vote yes.
	3:38pm MONEYBAG$: or speed it up even more
	♥ 3:39pm Barkevious Shabazz: @guido actually an expanded version of the Pleasure album on iTunes.
	3:39pm JakeGhould: Sounds like Witchie-Poo but the lyrics don’t mean Halloween to me. So I vote… Maybe…
	3:39pm Michael N: a thumbs down for me
	♥ 3:39pm Guido from Cologne: Originally a Czech duo active at the German Beat Scene. later soft Schlager duo with another adam. Eve is Eva Bartova from Pilsen.
	3:40pm statoj: I like it. The Monkees abducted and forced to ingest Acid.
	3:40pm Michael N: this is more like it
	3:40pm Cheyenne: Dig it! And this song will always give me (pleasant) flashbacks to my swing dancing classes!
	♥ 3:41pm Guido from Cologne: I was wrong: Adam No. 1 is John Christian Dee, born in New York
	3:42pm Todd-o-phonic: Adam & Eve is cover of former WFMU Record Fair attendee Mickey Lee Lane. Not nearly as good as Los Rockin' Devils version....have a great Mexican gal version I will dig up for you!
	3:43pm JakeGhould: I think Cult Hero’s “I Dig You” is pretty Halloween appropriate even though the song has 100% nothing to do with Halloween.
	♥ 3:44pm Guido from Cologne: More fun facts: "Shaggy Dog" is the first single with Adam No. 2: Hartmut „Harry“ Schairer
	3:45pm djsheilab: Thanks for all these deep details @Guido! It seems like it's a pretty even split on the yay and nay, huh? I'm still torn.
	3:48pm Michael N: Oh yes, you cannot go wrong with Toto!
	3:49pm Michael N: The KIng is alive
	♥ 3:49pm listener james from westwood: I think I'm one of the few who liked Toto's "Dune" soundtrack.
	3:50pm Marc Francis: This version is so so damn good.
	♥ 3:50pm Guido from Cologne: I like it, but i don't know tzhe original. Adam & Eve were really a hate-act for the casual 70ies Rock/Prog/Punk-fan. Stumbled over their early Beat-history via the "Prae Kraut Pandeamonium"-Sampler series. How many musicians started with totally different ambitions and landed in Schlager?
	♥ 3:50pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: I think you could make the song work in the context of everything else you play.
	3:51pm Michael N: better than the cheap trick version
	♥ 3:52pm Guido from Cologne: Adam & Eve make two and one side by side: www.srfcdn.ch...
	3:56pm MONEYBAG$: "You cannot go wrong with Toto" is the first rule of DJing
	♥ 3:57pm Guido from Cologne: Feist's arranger/producer Chilly Gonzales meanwhile lives in Cologne. It all started in Berlin though (the Peaches/Gonzales/Feist-thing)
	3:58pm djsheilab: Ha! Yes @Moneybags. I like that rule very much.
	♥ 4:06pm common: well hello!
	4:08pm djsheilab: Thank you for the all the donations!! They're coming in fast! YAY!
	♥ 4:11pm Guido from Cologne: Betty Lavette has also other fun stories about how she was on Calla label (notorious Roulette Records mafia connection) and thought she had an career, but soon found out that her manager was in prison and the label boss found dead in a river (or somehow like that)
	4:12pm Todd-o-phonic: Kenni Woods...good score Sheila!
	4:13pm Brendan: Permission to come aboard?
	4:14pm djsheilab: Permission granted! Welcome @Brendan!
	♥ 4:14pm Gaylord Fields: @Guido from Cologne: Calla was run by Nate McCalla, who was Morris Levy's legbreaker. Not for nothing, but goons, thugs, and hoods put out GREAT records!
	♥ 4:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Michael Shelley should interview Betty Lavette, if she does interviews.
	♥ 4:17pm Guido from Cologne: Ha! thank you Gaylord! Yey, the records were marvelous! I own a couple of comps.
	4:19pm statoj: Lily Allen- this one's good!
	4:20pm JakeGhould: Nice catch on the Lily Allen spending all day giving bread.
	4:21pm Parq: This Lily Allen record is adorable.
	4:24pm djsheilab: @Statoj + @Parq Isn't the sweetest? She made great records. Amazing lyricist.
	4:25pm DangMe: Aww, commercial radio gets away when Lou says the same thing (IIRC) in Walk on the Wild Side. But, skilled, nonetheless.
	4:25pm statoj: What it is about Lily- her voice is sweet but she really tells it!
	4:27pm djsheilab: @DangMe + @JakeGhould--I'm not sure if I was required to do that, but I'm playing it safe.
	♥ 4:32pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: On to Discogs I go! Big honky baby, indeed!
	4:33pm Ari: Great show, cheers from Iceland!
	4:34pm JakeGhould: @djsheilab: Sometimes it’s just hard to decide if bread is good or bread is just bread.
	4:36pm JakeGhould: Anita Sarko in Paper: www.papermag.com...
	4:37pm JakeGhould: @djsheilab: Humility is a strength.
	4:37pm SheWolf: Loving your vibe Sheila.
	♥ 4:37pm listener james from westwood: Hear hear re: vulnerability.
	♥ 4:39pm listener james from westwood: And re: "Incense"!!
	4:39pm JakeGhould: My rules: Assume good faith, always shows respect and humility is a virtue.
	♥ 4:39pm Guido from Cologne: Just recently saw the "Psych Out" movie with the Strawberries "winning the contest" against the Strawberries. Jack Nicholson on lead guitar hahaha.
	4:40pm statoj: Sheila B. You are what in the 60s we called "a beautiful person."Shine on. p.s. love this song ,( incence & peppermint)
	4:40pm Howard F: Good afternoon, everybody! Really enjoying the friendly, welcoming vibe today! Thanks Sheila.
	♥ 4:41pm Guido from Cologne: LaVer Baker! Love this song!
	♥ 4:43pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: Preach, sister! Also, if Little Steven and Paul Shaffer can produce a Bert Berns jukebox musical for Broadway, you and I should do the same for Russ Titelman!
	4:45pm djsheilab: @Gaylord! YESSSSSSS!
	4:48pm Mark R.: Folks, we're so close to our goal. Oh, so close! Wouldn't it be amazing if Sheila's show put us over the top?
	4:48pm djsheilab: I only just discovered this Popguns song and I am OBSESSED!!
	♥ 4:49pm listener james from westwood: Oh hells YES to that opening guitar and all the rest!
	4:49pm djsheilab: Thanks for helping with the last push @Mark R.!
	♥ 4:49pm Gaylord Fields: Wendy Morgan of the Popguns — the great pop singer NO ONE knows about! (Also, have you been stealing all my best records?)
	4:50pm modchick65: Popguns. Nice.
	♥ 4:52pm MD: I liked that waitin for the winter song!
	4:53pm djsheilab: @MD Isn't it fab?!! Heard it for the first time a few weeks ago on an old Rough Trade comp I found in the WFMU library.
	4:55pm djsheilab: Oooooh....I'm at 90%!!! Thank you Mike from Rochester for just donating!
	♥ 4:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: At first, The Popguns cover looked like a line of penguins marching uphill. Then I looked more closely and I see it's some geese flying toward the right.
	4:58pm Mark R.: If you pledge now, you can still enter your pet in Official WFMU Mascot Contest. In addition to a fantastic collection of adorable canines and felines, I've seen a couple of gorgeous reptiles and a hamster (I think) who they've trained to hold up a WFMU membership card! (Extra points if you can incorporate WFMU signage and swag, I say!)
	5:06pm statoj: Dirty Ghosts rock! Awesome!
	♥ 5:10pm Guido from Cologne: one of those bam-caruso psych-pop-faves. it took me some time to really appreciate.
	♥ 5:12pm Guido from Cologne: ... also nice ... it was on "ultra chicks"
	5:16pm Todd-o-phonic: The Telescopes make me wish that I hadn’t dismissively snoozed so much through the whole shoegazer thing. Their 1989 full-length debut, Taste, while proving that they were no Spaceman 3, nonetheless documents a really cool band in its embryonic stages.- Jonathan Toubin
	5:17pm Adrian in London and The Contessa: Hi Sheila and boom booms. Not listening live tonight because we've just seen Khruangbin play their album-launch show; they were amazing! X
	5:19pm djsheilab: Amen Jonathan Toubin! "Taste" was one of my favorite records as a moody teenager. Definitely up there with Spacemen 3 / Spiritualized.
	5:20pm Brendan: Love this set ... Doin an alternate breast stroke shimmy dance at work. Not in the Fat Bastard breast stroke sense if the term , but rather a slow mo synchronized swimmer dance musical interpretation.
	5:35pm djsheilab: Any love out there for New Jack Swing?
	♥ 5:35pm listener james from westwood: Oh, man, this cut sounds darned familiar. Did I hear it back in the day? I'm parting ~29 years of mist here!
	♥ 5:36pm SeanG: I'm digging it! that 808 drum sound
	5:36pm modchick65: I can't go there with you. :( Sorry.
	5:36pm mto: Enjoyed Linda Gayle waaaaaaaaaay more! in oookay
	5:37pm djsheilab: It's the modern-day Ray Charles & the Raelets, folks!
	5:37pm djsheilab: Don't shoot! Just kidding!!
	5:41pm Brendan: Shake it toots!
	♥ 5:42pm sweeks: Kitty Daisy & Lewis put on a pretty fun live show. What a cool family band!
	5:43pm djsheilab: @Sweeks Yes! And they've been at it for years. Really perfecting their craft.
	♥ 5:47pm Dave in Vermont: YES!Stockard!!
	♥ 5:47pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, Grease soundtrack! I was allowed to see this film waaaay too young.
	♥ 5:48pm Dave in Vermont: Definitely my favorite scene in this film.
	5:49pm djsheilab: Me too @Dave in Vermont!
	♥ 5:50pm Mike Sin: Fun listenin' today -- my ears thank you!
	5:52pm djsheilab: Thanks @Mike Sin + to all of you for tuning in and commenting. Wish I could respond to each and every comment. Damn 2 minute songs!!
	5:53pm Cooh John: You got me, djsheilab. Right in both ears. Happy Halloween all boom boomers.
	♥ 5:54pm chris: this Bang-Bang is sophisticated Boom-Boom! love it!
	♥ 5:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: 98% and less than $100 to go!
	5:56pm djsheilab: YAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!

	♥ 3:24pm Guido from Cologne: Tell me someone how to get the Girls At Our Best! single! I have the LP, but this is their best song! teenage memories! :-)
	3:24pm Cheyenne: GIRLS AT OUR BEST!! YES!
	3:25pm djsheilab: YAY for Girls At Our Best! Bringing joy to the world!
	3:26pm Michael N: Liking this
	♥ 3:27pm Gaylord Fields: @Guido from Cologne: The singles are better than the LP.
	♥ 3:28pm Barkevious Shabazz: That Girls single is on their singles comp which is widely available. Great band!
	3:28pm BennettCap: Making me cry, Sheila B.
	3:28pm Michael N: this song was sung at my bar mitzvah back in 79, nice
	3:29pm statoj: Roberta! Truly the most beautiful interpretation of this song.
	3:29pm djsheilab: Let's cry together BennetCap!
	♥ 3:29pm Barkevious Shabazz: Their "Politics" single kicks so much ass.
	3:30pm JakeGhould: Not giving Roberta any more flack. I’m the first one to think of that.
	3:30pm djsheilab: TOPT + timurf! That Claudine record is tops. How ever did they think that should follow "Party Lights"?!! Her career sabotage is our Halloween treat!
	3:31pm P-90: Roberta. I'm ancient enough to remember when this was the #1 ichiban song in the whole US
	3:32pm P-90: Everyone was walking around humming this.
	3:33pm David Shortell: Cinema-goers who discovered that Flack song when "Play Misty For Me" opened had to wait a few months for the record to come out!
	3:34pm #4: hawaii 5-0?
	3:34pm MONEYBAG$: Rocky..?
	♥ 3:34pm Mick: Were you just singing the theme to Rocky?
	♥ 3:34pm Joe McG: Sounds like the theme from "Rocky," Sheila.
	♥ 3:34pm Guido from Cologne: singles comp.? not on discogs, not on amazon
	3:34pm Marshall Stacks: The theme from the movie Rocky.
	3:36pm P-90: @Sheila, could you hum a little more of that TV theme, a little slower/clearer maybe?
	3:36pm Mary Wing: Here, Guido: http://shop.cherryred.co.uk/cherryred-exd.asp?id=1031
	♥ 3:36pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: The song's implication is that all the folks buried at the cemetery Claudine is walking through are those who wouldn't let her into the party.
	3:37pm modchick65: I can honestly say that listening to this show is, so far, the high point of my day.
	♥ 3:38pm Uncle Michael: I'd try this record at 33 1/3.
	♥ 3:38pm Gaylord Fields: Sounds like Witchie-Poo singing Mickey Lee Lane. In other words, I vote yes.
	3:38pm MONEYBAG$: or speed it up even more
	♥ 3:39pm Barkevious Shabazz: @guido actually an expanded version of the Pleasure album on iTunes.
	3:39pm JakeGhould: Sounds like Witchie-Poo but the lyrics don’t mean Halloween to me. So I vote… Maybe…
	3:39pm Michael N: a thumbs down for me
	♥ 3:39pm Guido from Cologne: Originally a Czech duo active at the German Beat Scene. later soft Schlager duo with another adam. Eve is Eva Bartova from Pilsen.
	3:40pm statoj: I like it. The Monkees abducted and forced to ingest Acid.
	3:40pm Michael N: this is more like it
	3:40pm Cheyenne: Dig it! And this song will always give me (pleasant) flashbacks to my swing dancing classes!
	♥ 3:41pm Guido from Cologne: I was wrong: Adam No. 1 is John Christian Dee, born in New York
	3:42pm Todd-o-phonic: Adam & Eve is cover of former WFMU Record Fair attendee Mickey Lee Lane. Not nearly as good as Los Rockin' Devils version....have a great Mexican gal version I will dig up for you!
	3:43pm JakeGhould: I think Cult Hero’s “I Dig You” is pretty Halloween appropriate even though the song has 100% nothing to do with Halloween.
	♥ 3:44pm Guido from Cologne: More fun facts: "Shaggy Dog" is the first single with Adam No. 2: Hartmut „Harry“ Schairer
	3:45pm djsheilab: Thanks for all these deep details @Guido! It seems like it's a pretty even split on the yay and nay, huh? I'm still torn.
	3:48pm Michael N: Oh yes, you cannot go wrong with Toto!
	3:49pm Michael N: The KIng is alive
	♥ 3:49pm listener james from westwood: I think I'm one of the few who liked Toto's "Dune" soundtrack.
	3:50pm Marc Francis: This version is so so damn good.
	♥ 3:50pm Guido from Cologne: I like it, but i don't know tzhe original. Adam & Eve were really a hate-act for the casual 70ies Rock/Prog/Punk-fan. Stumbled over their early Beat-history via the "Prae Kraut Pandeamonium"-Sampler series. How many musicians started with totally different ambitions and landed in Schlager?
	♥ 3:50pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: I think you could make the song work in the context of everything else you play.
	3:51pm Michael N: better than the cheap trick version
	♥ 3:52pm Guido from Cologne: Adam & Eve make two and one side by side: www.srfcdn.ch...
	3:56pm MONEYBAG$: "You cannot go wrong with Toto" is the first rule of DJing
	♥ 3:57pm Guido from Cologne: Feist's arranger/producer Chilly Gonzales meanwhile lives in Cologne. It all started in Berlin though (the Peaches/Gonzales/Feist-thing)
	3:58pm djsheilab: Ha! Yes @Moneybags. I like that rule very much.
	♥ 4:06pm common: well hello!
	4:08pm djsheilab: Thank you for the all the donations!! They're coming in fast! YAY!
	♥ 4:11pm Guido from Cologne: Betty Lavette has also other fun stories about how she was on Calla label (notorious Roulette Records mafia connection) and thought she had an career, but soon found out that her manager was in prison and the label boss found dead in a river (or somehow like that)
	4:12pm Todd-o-phonic: Kenni Woods...good score Sheila!
	4:13pm Brendan: Permission to come aboard?
	4:14pm djsheilab: Permission granted! Welcome @Brendan!
	♥ 4:14pm Gaylord Fields: @Guido from Cologne: Calla was run by Nate McCalla, who was Morris Levy's legbreaker. Not for nothing, but goons, thugs, and hoods put out GREAT records!
	♥ 4:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Michael Shelley should interview Betty Lavette, if she does interviews.
	♥ 4:17pm Guido from Cologne: Ha! thank you Gaylord! Yey, the records were marvelous! I own a couple of comps.
	4:19pm statoj: Lily Allen- this one's good!
	4:20pm JakeGhould: Nice catch on the Lily Allen spending all day giving bread.
	4:21pm Parq: This Lily Allen record is adorable.
	4:24pm djsheilab: @Statoj + @Parq Isn't the sweetest? She made great records. Amazing lyricist.
	4:25pm DangMe: Aww, commercial radio gets away when Lou says the same thing (IIRC) in Walk on the Wild Side. But, skilled, nonetheless.
	4:25pm statoj: What it is about Lily- her voice is sweet but she really tells it!
	4:27pm djsheilab: @DangMe + @JakeGhould--I'm not sure if I was required to do that, but I'm playing it safe.
	♥ 4:32pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: On to Discogs I go! Big honky baby, indeed!
	4:33pm Ari: Great show, cheers from Iceland!
	4:34pm JakeGhould: @djsheilab: Sometimes it’s just hard to decide if bread is good or bread is just bread.
	4:36pm JakeGhould: Anita Sarko in Paper: www.papermag.com...
	4:37pm JakeGhould: @djsheilab: Humility is a strength.
	4:37pm SheWolf: Loving your vibe Sheila.
	♥ 4:37pm listener james from westwood: Hear hear re: vulnerability.
	♥ 4:39pm listener james from westwood: And re: "Incense"!!
	4:39pm JakeGhould: My rules: Assume good faith, always shows respect and humility is a virtue.
	♥ 4:39pm Guido from Cologne: Just recently saw the "Psych Out" movie with the Strawberries "winning the contest" against the Strawberries. Jack Nicholson on lead guitar hahaha.
	4:40pm statoj: Sheila B. You are what in the 60s we called "a beautiful person."Shine on. p.s. love this song ,( incence & peppermint)
	4:40pm Howard F: Good afternoon, everybody! Really enjoying the friendly, welcoming vibe today! Thanks Sheila.
	♥ 4:41pm Guido from Cologne: LaVer Baker! Love this song!
	♥ 4:43pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: Preach, sister! Also, if Little Steven and Paul Shaffer can produce a Bert Berns jukebox musical for Broadway, you and I should do the same for Russ Titelman!
	4:45pm djsheilab: @Gaylord! YESSSSSSS!
	4:48pm Mark R.: Folks, we're so close to our goal. Oh, so close! Wouldn't it be amazing if Sheila's show put us over the top?
	4:48pm djsheilab: I only just discovered this Popguns song and I am OBSESSED!!
	♥ 4:49pm listener james from westwood: Oh hells YES to that opening guitar and all the rest!
	4:49pm djsheilab: Thanks for helping with the last push @Mark R.!
	♥ 4:49pm Gaylord Fields: Wendy Morgan of the Popguns — the great pop singer NO ONE knows about! (Also, have you been stealing all my best records?)
	4:50pm modchick65: Popguns. Nice.
	♥ 4:52pm MD: I liked that waitin for the winter song!
	4:53pm djsheilab: @MD Isn't it fab?!! Heard it for the first time a few weeks ago on an old Rough Trade comp I found in the WFMU library.
	4:55pm djsheilab: Oooooh....I'm at 90%!!! Thank you Mike from Rochester for just donating!
	♥ 4:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: At first, The Popguns cover looked like a line of penguins marching uphill. Then I looked more closely and I see it's some geese flying toward the right.
	4:58pm Mark R.: If you pledge now, you can still enter your pet in Official WFMU Mascot Contest. In addition to a fantastic collection of adorable canines and felines, I've seen a couple of gorgeous reptiles and a hamster (I think) who they've trained to hold up a WFMU membership card! (Extra points if you can incorporate WFMU signage and swag, I say!)
	5:06pm statoj: Dirty Ghosts rock! Awesome!
	♥ 5:10pm Guido from Cologne: one of those bam-caruso psych-pop-faves. it took me some time to really appreciate.
	♥ 5:12pm Guido from Cologne: ... also nice ... it was on "ultra chicks"
	5:16pm Todd-o-phonic: The Telescopes make me wish that I hadn’t dismissively snoozed so much through the whole shoegazer thing. Their 1989 full-length debut, Taste, while proving that they were no Spaceman 3, nonetheless documents a really cool band in its embryonic stages.- Jonathan Toubin
	5:17pm Adrian in London and The Contessa: Hi Sheila and boom booms. Not listening live tonight because we've just seen Khruangbin play their album-launch show; they were amazing! X
	5:19pm djsheilab: Amen Jonathan Toubin! "Taste" was one of my favorite records as a moody teenager. Definitely up there with Spacemen 3 / Spiritualized.
	5:20pm Brendan: Love this set ... Doin an alternate breast stroke shimmy dance at work. Not in the Fat Bastard breast stroke sense if the term , but rather a slow mo synchronized swimmer dance musical interpretation.
	5:35pm djsheilab: Any love out there for New Jack Swing?
	♥ 5:35pm listener james from westwood: Oh, man, this cut sounds darned familiar. Did I hear it back in the day? I'm parting ~29 years of mist here!
	♥ 5:36pm SeanG: I'm digging it! that 808 drum sound
	5:36pm modchick65: I can't go there with you. :( Sorry.
	5:36pm mto: Enjoyed Linda Gayle waaaaaaaaaay more! in oookay
	5:37pm djsheilab: It's the modern-day Ray Charles & the Raelets, folks!
	5:37pm djsheilab: Don't shoot! Just kidding!!
	5:41pm Brendan: Shake it toots!
	♥ 5:42pm sweeks: Kitty Daisy & Lewis put on a pretty fun live show. What a cool family band!
	5:43pm djsheilab: @Sweeks Yes! And they've been at it for years. Really perfecting their craft.
	♥ 5:47pm Dave in Vermont: YES!Stockard!!
	♥ 5:47pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, Grease soundtrack! I was allowed to see this film waaaay too young.
	♥ 5:48pm Dave in Vermont: Definitely my favorite scene in this film.
	5:49pm djsheilab: Me too @Dave in Vermont!
	♥ 5:50pm Mike Sin: Fun listenin' today -- my ears thank you!
