	3:40pm djsheilab: Oh yesss! Thank you @Andrew. More to add to the sparkling new "rejection records" genre.

	3:42pm Cheyenne: I love this song so much!

	3:53pm djsheilab: @gaylord Yes indeed. I always keep it handy incase things die down.
	3:53pm statoj: This is very hard tock for Leslie Gore! Nice!
	♥ 3:53pm JtotheK: this lesley gore is outstanding.
	♥ 3:54pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: Ha! I use it in the exact same way! And speaking of DJing, did you end up playing that Adam & Eve song you were on the fence about?
	3:54pm statoj: Er, I meant "rock"...
	3:55pm BriJet: Hello all!! Great set!
	3:56pm djsheilab: Not an expensive Lesley Gore 45 either! And a guaranteed floor filler!
	3:56pm djsheilab: Thanks @BriJet!
	♥ 3:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: In case anyone was wondering, the Chinchillas are a band. No females in the group, though. chinchillas.x10host.com
	♥ 3:58pm listener james from westwood: Is this the same Paola who does that "Rainbow in the Dark" cut/Dio cover (?) Bill Kelly's occasionally played, I wonder? I had a feeling it was her before I saw the playlist, and now I'm nearly positive.
	3:59pm statoj: Sheila, Do you know a early 70s girl rock band called "Fanny"? Two Hawaian sisters- June and Jean Milligan who play electric guitar and bass, and a piano player named Nicki. Great original rock and roll. And others too.
	♥ 4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...had coffee - not too late for Pye today I hope...
	4:04pm Cheri Pi: I was born in the showa era
	♥ 4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh - I've seen this in Godzilla fandom too...
	♥ 4:08pm rsj: i used to like 10,000 types of beer, now I am more choosy
	4:08pm statoj: I had 2 of their records in the 90s but lost them (aaah!). I never knew they had a single. I think there may be another band called Fanny. My "Fanny" has June and Jean Milligan and I know you would love them. I cannot remember any song titles but will research and try to jog my memory. Thx!
	4:09pm Will: I remember Fanny being kind of a boogie/blues type outfit, and their best songs could be covers (e.g. "Badge" by Cream and "Special Care" by Buffalo Springfield).
	4:11pm revsgroup: Utopian bliss
	4:15pm modchick65: That Lesley Gore song was phenomenal.
	4:15pm P-90: Bonjour Sheila B. et Les Boomeres!
	4:19pm modchick65: This Dawn song is awesome, too.
	4:21pm statoj: Will, That must be the other Fanny. This one was straight out garage rock, all girl, think The Runaways/Bangles/ with maybe a little San Francisco psychelic thrown in. Kind of like Tia Carrere's act in Wayne's World.
	4:24pm statoj: This Fanny: en.m.wikipedia.org...
	4:25pm djsheilab: Hey P-90! Modchick65!Statoj! Love seeing all your familiar names here. Hello to all of you tuned in!
	♥ 4:27pm yayson: ooh that sax creepin in
	4:29pm modchick65: Omg, I LOVE this Tony Hatch song. Love all that '60s production music. Anyone remember the cd comp called "Music For TV Dinners"? It had all the great Alan Hawkshaw stuff on it ("Girl In A Sports Car") and Laurie Johnson's "Chase That Car" from the Avengers? So great.
	4:30pm statoj: You are stuck with me now. I look forward to joining this party all week!
	4:30pm Monica: makin' yerself happen, mizz b.!
	4:32pm modchick65: "Love Kitten" is my new favorite song.
	4:34pm Muddy: Kudos on your show
	♥ 4:35pm Gaylord Fields: Today's Fun Fact: "Love Kitten," by Noreen Corcoran, is only the second-best song recorded by a member of the cast of Bachelor Father and released on Vee Jay: www.youtube.com...
	♥ 4:41pm listener james from westwood: @modchick65: Love that collection! Love production music like that, too. It's like musical DNA woven into the culture.
	♥ 4:42pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: In 2013, I saw Lou Christie as the special guest star at the Palm Springs Follies (R.I.P.)! He put on a hell of a show, and I was happy to hear that he could still get that falsetto up there! I was too intimidated to go up to him afterward when he was hanging out in front of the theater. I was afraid I'd blurt out something gushy, like telling him that "Egyptian Shumba" is the greatest song ever recorded!
	♥ 4:42pm listener james from westwood: @SheilaB that Lou Christie story was adorable. Dug the track, too. The refrain reminded me of early Cher solo work for some reason. In a slightly lower register!
	4:43pm djsheilab: @Monica That's a BIG compliment coming from you. I adore adore adore your show.
	♥ 4:43pm listener james from westwood: They interviewed Christie at the "Nomi Song" premiere; his extensive reply (and raves for Nomi) are among the DVD extras.
	4:46pm Seep: Egyptian Shumba? bah. Trapeze!
	4:47pm djsheilab: Sorry my "Trapeze" copy was so beat. A surface noise special as Todd-O-Phonic-Todd would say!
	♥ 4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Gaylord - maybe you'll get another chance & you can say Lightnin' Strikes twice... Yeah. Sorry...
	4:49pm marc15: No one covered Lou Christie's "Lightning Strikes" better than Klaus Nomi
	♥ 4:53pm Greg from ZONE 5: Evening, gang!
	♥ 4:54pm Gaylord Fields: @Seep: You have the ears of a fish with a head cold. This isn't just my expert opinion — it's been SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN!
	♥ 4:55pm JtotheK: love this joe simon track...
	4:56pm MenfussMike: this drummer is BANGING!
	4:56pm djsheilab: WFMU field trip to a Lou Christie gig! And we can all scream + gush over "Egyptian Shumba."
	♥ 4:57pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: You know I'll be there!
	4:58pm modchick65: I'm in.
	♥ 4:58pm dale: just tuned in a little while ago - DAMN, some fine sounds.
	♥ 5:00pm JtotheK: the other joe simon 45 i really like is Travelin' Man.
	5:01pm djsheilab: Haven't heard that one @JtotheK. Thanks for the tip!
	♥ 5:03pm dale: 'diary' is my favorite lou christie song. not upbeat enough for anything but an intervention.
	5:05pm brian from ma: Ayshea? That wasn't Roy Wood?
	5:10pm Miss Mailas: Sheila, you're like the cool big sister I never had. Your show is taking the sting out of my shitty Friday!
	♥ 5:11pm dale: is this a full time show or a fill in? me likey.
	5:12pm djsheilab: @Miss Mailas! What praise! Thanks younger sis!
	5:12pm djsheilab: Full time @dale! I'm here every friday from 3-6pm.
	♥ 5:13pm dale: huzzah!
	♥ 5:16pm listener james from westwood: Yay Royksopp!!
	5:17pm djsheilab: Thank you all for the Fanny info + tips, btw. I'm on it!!!
	♥ 5:18pm JtotheK: one more Joe Simon comment -- another great 45 is 'just like yesterday' on the irral label. but it's a pricier Joe Simon 45.
	5:24pm modchick65: I love that horn in the American Breed song. Nice album cover, too. Was just on the Brooklyn Bridge the other night.
	5:29pm djsheilab: Peggy Lipton of the Mod Squad + Norma from Twin Peaks.
	5:33pm P-90: Wowed by Peggy Lipton. Cool song, pretty darn decent vocal performance, great production.
	5:35pm Beth: Really love your show - sticking around work longer than I have to just to listen!
	5:37pm djsheilab: Awww nice. Thank you so much @Beth!
	5:39pm P-90: I know this one-- it's got that heavy beat at that teasingly slow tempo. Brilliant. Great choice for "most excited to play."
	5:40pm djsheilab: @P-90 I've been playing it every night for the past few weeks. The songwriting just floors me. And the elegance.
	5:41pm djsheilab: All songs about cats are good songs, no matter how dull the story ; )
	♥ 5:42pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: As are all songs BY cats, amirite?
	5:43pm djsheilab: Oh yes, @Gaylord. How ever did I miss that?
	5:51pm djsheilab: "Order me some sparkling wine so I can get my groove on!" Just what I could use right now : )
	♥ 5:51pm listener james from westwood: Such a great early-Friday-evening going-out track!
	♥ 5:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Maria Dallas sounds like Wanda Jackson teeny bit.
	5:55pm djsheilab: She does indeed @Revolution Rabbit! One more 45 for y'all and then I'm off for my sparkling wine. THANK YOU FOR TUNING IN!!!! And commenting!!
	♥ 5:55pm JtotheK: great show! thanks sheila!
	♥ 5:56pm listener james from westwood: Always a blast; thanks, Sheila!
	5:59pm P-90: Thanks, have a sophisticated week, Sheila!
	6:54pm j in the bay: Planet Pilates. I go there every week. It would be the next planet out from bar planet.

	4:25pm djsheilab: Hey P-90! Modchick65!Statoj! Love seeing all your familiar names here. Hello to all of you tuned in!
	♥ 4:27pm yayson: ooh that sax creepin in
	4:29pm modchick65: Omg, I LOVE this Tony Hatch song. Love all that '60s production music. Anyone remember the cd comp called "Music For TV Dinners"? It had all the great Alan Hawkshaw stuff on it ("Girl In A Sports Car") and Laurie Johnson's "Chase That Car" from the Avengers? So great.
	4:30pm statoj: You are stuck with me now. I look forward to joining this party all week!
	4:30pm Monica: makin' yerself happen, mizz b.!
	4:32pm modchick65: "Love Kitten" is my new favorite song.
	4:34pm Muddy: Kudos on your show
	♥ 4:35pm Gaylord Fields: Today's Fun Fact: "Love Kitten," by Noreen Corcoran, is only the second-best song recorded by a member of the cast of Bachelor Father and released on Vee Jay: www.youtube.com...
	♥ 4:41pm listener james from westwood: @modchick65: Love that collection! Love production music like that, too. It's like musical DNA woven into the culture.
	♥ 4:42pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: In 2013, I saw Lou Christie as the special guest star at the Palm Springs Follies (R.I.P.)! He put on a hell of a show, and I was happy to hear that he could still get that falsetto up there! I was too intimidated to go up to him afterward when he was hanging out in front of the theater. I was afraid I'd blurt out something gushy, like telling him that "Egyptian Shumba" is the greatest song ever recorded!
	♥ 4:42pm listener james from westwood: @SheilaB that Lou Christie story was adorable. Dug the track, too. The refrain reminded me of early Cher solo work for some reason. In a slightly lower register!
	4:43pm djsheilab: @Monica That's a BIG compliment coming from you. I adore adore adore your show.
	♥ 4:43pm listener james from westwood: They interviewed Christie at the "Nomi Song" premiere; his extensive reply (and raves for Nomi) are among the DVD extras.
	4:46pm Seep: Egyptian Shumba? bah. Trapeze!
	4:47pm djsheilab: Sorry my "Trapeze" copy was so beat. A surface noise special as Todd-O-Phonic-Todd would say!
	♥ 4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Gaylord - maybe you'll get another chance & you can say Lightnin' Strikes twice... Yeah. Sorry...
	4:49pm marc15: No one covered Lou Christie's "Lightning Strikes" better than Klaus Nomi
	♥ 4:53pm Greg from ZONE 5: Evening, gang!
	♥ 4:54pm Gaylord Fields: @Seep: You have the ears of a fish with a head cold. This isn't just my expert opinion — it's been SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN!
	♥ 4:55pm JtotheK: love this joe simon track...
	4:56pm MenfussMike: this drummer is BANGING!
	4:56pm djsheilab: WFMU field trip to a Lou Christie gig! And we can all scream + gush over "Egyptian Shumba."
	♥ 4:57pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: You know I'll be there!
	4:58pm modchick65: I'm in.
	♥ 4:58pm dale: just tuned in a little while ago - DAMN, some fine sounds.
	♥ 5:00pm JtotheK: the other joe simon 45 i really like is Travelin' Man.
	5:01pm djsheilab: Haven't heard that one @JtotheK. Thanks for the tip!
	♥ 5:03pm dale: 'diary' is my favorite lou christie song. not upbeat enough for anything but an intervention.
	5:05pm brian from ma: Ayshea? That wasn't Roy Wood?
	5:10pm Miss Mailas: Sheila, you're like the cool big sister I never had. Your show is taking the sting out of my shitty Friday!
	♥ 5:11pm dale: is this a full time show or a fill in? me likey.
	5:12pm djsheilab: @Miss Mailas! What praise! Thanks younger sis!

	5:17pm djsheilab: Thank you all for the Fanny info + tips, btw. I'm on it!!!
	♥ 5:18pm JtotheK: one more Joe Simon comment -- another great 45 is 'just like yesterday' on the irral label. but it's a pricier Joe Simon 45.
	5:24pm modchick65: I love that horn in the American Breed song. Nice album cover, too. Was just on the Brooklyn Bridge the other night.
	5:29pm djsheilab: Peggy Lipton of the Mod Squad + Norma from Twin Peaks.
	5:33pm P-90: Wowed by Peggy Lipton. Cool song, pretty darn decent vocal performance, great production.
	5:35pm Beth: Really love your show - sticking around work longer than I have to just to listen!
	5:37pm djsheilab: Awww nice. Thank you so much @Beth!
	5:39pm P-90: I know this one-- it's got that heavy beat at that teasingly slow tempo. Brilliant. Great choice for "most excited to play."
	5:40pm djsheilab: @P-90 I've been playing it every night for the past few weeks. The songwriting just floors me. And the elegance.
	5:41pm djsheilab: All songs about cats are good songs, no matter how dull the story ; )
	♥ 5:42pm Gaylord Fields: @djsheilab: As are all songs BY cats, amirite?
	5:43pm djsheilab: Oh yes, @Gaylord. How ever did I miss that?
	5:51pm djsheilab: "Order me some sparkling wine so I can get my groove on!" Just what I could use right now : )
	♥ 5:51pm listener james from westwood: Such a great early-Friday-evening going-out track!
	♥ 5:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Maria Dallas sounds like Wanda Jackson teeny bit.
	5:55pm djsheilab: She does indeed @Revolution Rabbit! One more 45 for y'all and then I'm off for my sparkling wine. THANK YOU FOR TUNING IN!!!! And commenting!!
	♥ 5:55pm JtotheK: great show! thanks sheila!
	♥ 5:56pm listener james from westwood: Always a blast; thanks, Sheila!
