	3:13pm Linda Lee: thank Gosh we're kickin it off mellow today ~
	3:13pm djsheilab: Or maybe you are!

	3:18pm burt_in_fl: tuff jam!!! nice!
	3:18pm SHAGALOV: HELLO, AND HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!!
	3:20pm listener james from westwood: That James Bond theme riff really did find its way into a wide swath of music, didn't it?
	3:20pm Listener Robert: For a sec, james, I thought it was a mashup.
	3:21pm fred: That Chara cover pic is disturbing, for me
	3:22pm djsheilab: @Fred Too much lipgloss, perhaps?
	3:22pm ashley morey: Happy new year, Sheila!! Much love from me and Justin <3
	3:23pm JtotheK: that Eddie Holman track is great, though I'm also partial to 'Eddie's My Name' ...
	3:23pm P-90: @listener james: Yes, that was the 007 chord progression. Motown liked it too.
	3:23pm Guido from Cologne: Chara strangled by blossoms perhaps.
	3:24pm Adrian in London: Well, now the year really begins. Hello Sheila and Boomers. sniffs the air Hmm, smells like someone's wearing Electric Youth in here… ;-)
	3:24pm fred: @djsheilab: that, and her eyes
	3:26pm djsheilab: @Adrian Yes! This is an ode to the best xmas present I've ever received: Debbie Gibson's "Electric Youth" perfume.
	3:27pm listener james from westwood: Whoa, huge memory madeleine from that opening sax. 1987 was my high-school-to-college year. Axial.
	3:28pm glenn: i know debbie gibson. not this one, but still.
	3:29pm The Contessa: Talking of presents @Sheila I am now the proud owner of that John Cameron track Half Forgotten Daydreams, on vinyl, thanks to Adrian in L
	3:29pm statoj: NbIn 1987 all the 8 year olds loved Debbie Gibson.
	3:32pm fred: Just play Nina's take, you'll feel just that way. Works for me, at least
	3:32pm Petrov: Hi all, greetings from St.Petersburg Russia, we got refreshing -15 C, happy new everything!
	3:33pm Bobo: So that's how the scratch marks got on my grand piano.
	3:34pm listener james from westwood: Agreed, always love hearing a bit of 007 tucked away in a track.
	3:37pm Shagalov: And now I get NEW YEAR Spirit!✨
	3:38pm Listener Robert: Petrov, that's not refreshing, that's preserving, as in frozen food!
	3:38pm statoj: Oh this Newman Happy New Year is brilliant. Have been a John Martyn fan forever; never heard Beverly til now. Thanks!
	3:39pm SHAGALOV: @Petrov, in Moscow -17 now!
	3:44pm Petrov: @Listener Robert: in Russia food freeze you
	3:47pm KP: Happy New Year, Sheila
	3:47pm djsheilab: @Shagalov Welcome + happy new year!
	3:47pm the Canterbury wood-elf: I loved this Pale Saints when it came out. Haven't heard it for almost 25 years, wow...
	3:48pm statoj: Petrov, well, dancing will keep you warm!
	3:49pm JakeGould: Doolang! To all!
	3:52pm JtotheK: hadn't heard this Crystals before. this is amazing!
	3:52pm Petrov: @statoj: I prefer to get drunk
	3:53pm statoj: Whatever works for you!
	3:53pm Adrian in London: @Canterbury Wood Elf Yes, Pale Saints were very good. I saw them on that album's tour. I had it on a crappy recorded tape. Will have to buy the vinyl.
	3:54pm djsheilab: @JtotheK Glad you love it! One of my top 10s for sure! SO powerful. Took me years to find and paid a hefty price. But so worth it.
	3:54pm JtotheK: and forgive the lateness of this comment (was out walking the dog) - re: Amanda Petrusich book -- i didn't know there was an interview on Joe McG show, will have to seek that out - thanks! Great book, and especially fun because parts of it have local (WI) ties -- looking for records (in rivers) 15 mins from where I work, and 2 mins from a fantastic area record shop...
	3:55pm statoj: This Mi-ke cover is a nod to either Sgt Pepper or Michael Jackson.
	3:55pm the Canterbury wood-elf: @Adrian I'm pretty sure I had that Pale Saints (plus various session tracks, etc) recorded off John Peel. No idea where all those tapes ended up!
	3:56pm Adrian in London: @Canty And Ride did a great version of The Sight of You
	3:56pm listener james from westwood: Yes! One of my very favorite songs, this Al Stewart cut! Always gives me chills.
	3:56pm Tennessee Jeb: Groovin'...So good!
	3:57pm glenn: or in my house, the year of the cat sitting on the laptop. like every day.
	3:58pm P-90: 猫の年は今始まっています!
	3:58pm statoj: 1976? Where did a lifetime go?
	3:59pm glenn: tell me about it. i was 15.
	4:00pm cosmic matrix: oh shit. i was just wonderin' why it sounded so good, especially the snare.
	4:01pm listener james from westwood: I got curious; there is no Year of the Cat, unless you ask a cat, in which case it's every year.
	4:01pm cosmic matrix: thanks for playing the pale saints. reminded me of when i went to SVA in '93
	4:02pm cosmic matrix: I always thought "Year of the Cat" was by the Pet Shop Boys because of his voice....duh
	4:02pm cosmic matrix: hahaha i heard that program
	4:03pm glenn: and THAT'S why we love wfmu.
	4:03pm Paul D: Happy New Year WFMU!
	4:04pm cosmic matrix: wait--i was born in 75 and that was the year of the cat...i believe...or rabbit depending...--so that makes sense if it was released the year after
	4:06pm Linda Lee: @cosmic matrix ~ nope, no such thing in the Chinese Zodiac. no year of the cat.
	4:07pm Linda Lee: it was Rabbit. actually Wood Rabbit, since you always have an animal + an element.
	4:08pm JakeGould: To be technical, 2016 is the year of the monkey, right?
	4:09pm P-90: @cosmic matrix: a reasonable assumption re: Pet Shop Boys, because they def copped vocal and production vibes from Al Stewart
	4:09pm statoj: Not sure if the Pet Shop Boys were born in 1976. Perhaps reincarnated from The Year of the Cat.
	4:10pm Linda Lee: Fire Monkey, Jake ~ begins in February!
	4:10pm glenn: i hope it's the metal monkey.
	4:10pm statoj: All right! A sultry Frenchman!
	4:11pm JakeGould: Year of the Monkey is my birth year. This is my year folks, back off.
	4:11pm Linda Lee: one of the greatest! Serge Gainsbourg!
	4:12pm djsheilab: Here's a link to the FANTASTIC Italian 60s Sirens show put together by Glynis Ward on her Crayons to Perfume show: wfmu.org...
	4:12pm Linda Lee: happy monkey new year Jake!
	4:13pm cosmic matrix: What kind of snare is THAT???
	4:13pm cosmic matrix: incredible song
	4:21pm P-90: Thanks @djsheilab, DJ Glynis does a great show, and I missed "60's Sirens", which is right up my alley.
	4:29pm Uncle Michael: Happy Boom Boom New Year!
	4:34pm Adrian in London: Yes, Valerie is a Czech film
	4:35pm glenn: erotic lesbian film? let me guess - they DON"T move in after their second date.
	4:36pm Adrian in London: Love this soundtrack, really works well in the film.
	4:38pm maestroso: Arriving late to the comments board... Happy New Year SheilaB! That Cat's Eyes track was gorgeous.
	4:41pm B/wad: Hi Sheila, Great show great set. Vibing down here in Tel Aviv ;)
	4:44pm Ken From Hyde Park: I wonder what's the identity of N/A? That was a nice song.
	4:46pm thornebrandt: ^ Also searching for that N/A song.
	4:47pm djsheilab: I looked everywhere but couldn't find a tracklist for this mix : ( I can ask Mahssa and play it again when I get the proper info.
	4:48pm djsheilab: Thanks @B/wad!
	4:49pm djsheilab: UP OFF THE COUCH EVERYONE!!!!!
	4:50pm Adrian in London: A propos of nothing: Japanese chocolates that look like the solar system www.rihga.co.jp...
	4:53pm Linda Lee: i want a cookie.
	5:03pm P-90: Sheila B discovers Michael Shelley, demonstrates her unerringly brilliant taste once more
	5:05pm Linda Lee: plaything ... wwwwaaaoooowwww. superior.
	5:05pm djsheilab: @P-90 : )
	5:06pm GeorgeSimian: Loved that Rub My Tummy song
	5:06pm GeorgeSimian: Another excellent show!
	5:09pm northguineahills: That Jean DuShon had a Screaming Jay Hawkins vibe to it for some reason (or I'm just hungover).
	5:14pm Adrian in London: Got to get this album; I've liked everything from it you've played.
	5:15pm djsheilab: Yes yes yes! @Adrian! It is pure magic. Couldn't recommend it enough!
	5:17pm JakeGould: Undertow?
	5:17pm northguineahills: Curve! I haven't binged on Curve in a while.....
	5:17pm JakeGould: Nope! Curve.
	5:18pm Adrian in London: Blimey, is this Curve?! I think I have this 12.
	5:18pm efd: Love this Curve song! Been enjoying the show today, Sheila! Happy New Year!
	5:20pm sugarplum fairywolf: Hello! Finally get a chance to tune in...
	5:21pm GeorgeSimian: Just googled Oxford Drama. Cutest band ever. Polish experimental. wtf?
	5:21pm djsheilab: Happy New Year @Evan! I'm happy you're listening : )
	5:21pm sugarplum fairywolf: Watched the Duke of Burgundy a few months ago... I like that all the ladies were in the audience of the presentation were wearing the same thing ... Also there were dummies in the audience?!?!
	5:22pm djsheilab: @GeorgeSimian A most mysterious duo and so brilliant!
	5:25pm shusei: wow last japanese track sounds like yoko ono to me
	5:29pm JakeGould: @djsheilab: FWIW, I remember that first “pilot” show of yours where 1/2 hour was not you and then it was and then it was cut off. Charmingly WFMU!
	5:30pm northguineahills: I believe Curve put their whole back catalog out for free download or stream. Can't remember if it's on bandcamp or their own site.
	5:32pm Listener Robert: I was out for a while, missed "Home Wrecker". Is it anything like "Homewrecker's Blues" by Poopy Lungstuffing? www.youtube.com...
	5:33pm JakeGould: Yahoo! Auctions Japan is BETTER than eBay because 98% of the time the descriptions are accurate, the photos are clear and tons of details. Kudos to Japanese quality and attention to detail.
	5:35pm P-90: Yay! we don't hear enough Della Reese on WFMU
	5:38pm listener james from westwood: Hells yes to this Della!
	5:38pm JtotheK: great Della track! she has some cool popcorn 45s, too! like 'a clock that's got no hands', and 'blow out the sun' ...
	5:38pm northguineahills: Super thanks! Happy new cheers!
	5:41pm The Contessa: That was slightly Vic Reeves!
	5:41pm tinkle bear: sheila b, and the old codger. both virtuosos at the fine art of the rant. never on the air at the same time....
	5:43pm djsheilab: Haha! I shall take that as a compliment @tinkle bear.
	5:43pm P-90: 明けましておめでとうございますSheila-san
	5:44pm JakeGould: @tinklebear: That is a fine idea for a show: “Old Codger Talks to the Youth of Today.”
	5:44pm djsheilab: 新年あけましておめでとう！@P-90
	5:44pm sugarplum fairywolf: Back to work HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone
	5:45pm djsheilab: Nice to see you here @sugarplum fairywolf!
	5:46pm tinkle bear: keep 'em coming, @djsheilab. ;)
	5:47pm djsheilab: Billy Jam + his girlfriend heard my plea for a drink + they came through!!!!!
	5:48pm Todd-o-phonic: Shall I assume from today's playlist that you got shutdown on the Dylan box set you wanted for Xmas???
	5:49pm tinkle bear: and FLAPPY SHOE BEER to you, sugarplum fairywolf.
	5:49pm Adrian in London: Cheers! (Champagne, cider, Liqor 43 - not all at once...)
	5:50pm djsheilab: @TOPT You're just in time for Mary Love!
	5:51pm Jeezy: Arggghhh my brain. Who's idea was it for me to close a bar in Ridgewood down till 4:30AM?!
	5:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Tough break, Jeezy. Stay hydrated, I guess. Welcome to 2016!
	5:55pm Todd-o-phonic: MARY LOVE RULES!!!
	5:56pm Jeezy: I think I lost the hydration battle many hours ago... But thanks, Ken!
	5:56pm JakeGould: @Jeezy: You know what I see? You had a chance to experience the first 4:20 of the New Year and you blew it! Sorry, had to point that out.

	3:20pm Listener Robert: For a sec, james, I thought it was a mashup.
	3:21pm fred: That Chara cover pic is disturbing, for me
	3:22pm djsheilab: @Fred Too much lipgloss, perhaps?
	3:22pm ashley morey: Happy new year, Sheila!! Much love from me and Justin <3
	3:23pm JtotheK: that Eddie Holman track is great, though I'm also partial to 'Eddie's My Name' ...
	3:23pm P-90: @listener james: Yes, that was the 007 chord progression. Motown liked it too.
	3:23pm Guido from Cologne: Chara strangled by blossoms perhaps.
	3:24pm Adrian in London: Well, now the year really begins. Hello Sheila and Boomers. sniffs the air Hmm, smells like someone's wearing Electric Youth in here… ;-)
	3:24pm fred: @djsheilab: that, and her eyes
	3:26pm djsheilab: @Adrian Yes! This is an ode to the best xmas present I've ever received: Debbie Gibson's "Electric Youth" perfume.
	3:27pm listener james from westwood: Whoa, huge memory madeleine from that opening sax. 1987 was my high-school-to-college year. Axial.
	3:28pm glenn: i know debbie gibson. not this one, but still.
	3:29pm The Contessa: Talking of presents @Sheila I am now the proud owner of that John Cameron track Half Forgotten Daydreams, on vinyl, thanks to Adrian in L
	3:29pm statoj: NbIn 1987 all the 8 year olds loved Debbie Gibson.
	3:32pm fred: Just play Nina's take, you'll feel just that way. Works for me, at least
	3:32pm Petrov: Hi all, greetings from St.Petersburg Russia, we got refreshing -15 C, happy new everything!
	3:33pm Bobo: So that's how the scratch marks got on my grand piano.
	3:34pm listener james from westwood: Agreed, always love hearing a bit of 007 tucked away in a track.
	3:37pm Shagalov: And now I get NEW YEAR Spirit!✨
	3:38pm Listener Robert: Petrov, that's not refreshing, that's preserving, as in frozen food!
	3:38pm statoj: Oh this Newman Happy New Year is brilliant. Have been a John Martyn fan forever; never heard Beverly til now. Thanks!
	3:39pm SHAGALOV: @Petrov, in Moscow -17 now!
	3:44pm Petrov: @Listener Robert: in Russia food freeze you
	3:47pm KP: Happy New Year, Sheila
	3:47pm djsheilab: @Shagalov Welcome + happy new year!
	3:47pm the Canterbury wood-elf: I loved this Pale Saints when it came out. Haven't heard it for almost 25 years, wow...
	3:48pm statoj: Petrov, well, dancing will keep you warm!
	3:49pm JakeGould: Doolang! To all!
	3:52pm JtotheK: hadn't heard this Crystals before. this is amazing!
	3:52pm Petrov: @statoj: I prefer to get drunk
	3:53pm statoj: Whatever works for you!
	3:53pm Adrian in London: @Canterbury Wood Elf Yes, Pale Saints were very good. I saw them on that album's tour. I had it on a crappy recorded tape. Will have to buy the vinyl.
	3:54pm djsheilab: @JtotheK Glad you love it! One of my top 10s for sure! SO powerful. Took me years to find and paid a hefty price. But so worth it.
	3:54pm JtotheK: and forgive the lateness of this comment (was out walking the dog) - re: Amanda Petrusich book -- i didn't know there was an interview on Joe McG show, will have to seek that out - thanks! Great book, and especially fun because parts of it have local (WI) ties -- looking for records (in rivers) 15 mins from where I work, and 2 mins from a fantastic area record shop...
	3:55pm statoj: This Mi-ke cover is a nod to either Sgt Pepper or Michael Jackson.
	3:55pm the Canterbury wood-elf: @Adrian I'm pretty sure I had that Pale Saints (plus various session tracks, etc) recorded off John Peel. No idea where all those tapes ended up!
	3:56pm Adrian in London: @Canty And Ride did a great version of The Sight of You
	3:56pm listener james from westwood: Yes! One of my very favorite songs, this Al Stewart cut! Always gives me chills.
	3:56pm Tennessee Jeb: Groovin'...So good!
	3:57pm glenn: or in my house, the year of the cat sitting on the laptop. like every day.
	3:58pm P-90: 猫の年は今始まっています!
	3:58pm statoj: 1976? Where did a lifetime go?
	3:59pm glenn: tell me about it. i was 15.
	4:00pm cosmic matrix: oh shit. i was just wonderin' why it sounded so good, especially the snare.
	4:01pm listener james from westwood: I got curious; there is no Year of the Cat, unless you ask a cat, in which case it's every year.
	4:01pm cosmic matrix: thanks for playing the pale saints. reminded me of when i went to SVA in '93
	4:02pm cosmic matrix: I always thought "Year of the Cat" was by the Pet Shop Boys because of his voice....duh
	4:02pm cosmic matrix: hahaha i heard that program
	4:03pm glenn: and THAT'S why we love wfmu.
	4:03pm Paul D: Happy New Year WFMU!
	4:04pm cosmic matrix: wait--i was born in 75 and that was the year of the cat...i believe...or rabbit depending...--so that makes sense if it was released the year after
	4:06pm Linda Lee: @cosmic matrix ~ nope, no such thing in the Chinese Zodiac. no year of the cat.
	4:07pm Linda Lee: it was Rabbit. actually Wood Rabbit, since you always have an animal + an element.
	4:08pm JakeGould: To be technical, 2016 is the year of the monkey, right?
	4:09pm P-90: @cosmic matrix: a reasonable assumption re: Pet Shop Boys, because they def copped vocal and production vibes from Al Stewart
	4:09pm statoj: Not sure if the Pet Shop Boys were born in 1976. Perhaps reincarnated from The Year of the Cat.
	4:10pm Linda Lee: Fire Monkey, Jake ~ begins in February!
	4:10pm glenn: i hope it's the metal monkey.
	4:10pm statoj: All right! A sultry Frenchman!
	4:11pm JakeGould: Year of the Monkey is my birth year. This is my year folks, back off.
	4:11pm Linda Lee: one of the greatest! Serge Gainsbourg!
	4:12pm djsheilab: Here's a link to the FANTASTIC Italian 60s Sirens show put together by Glynis Ward on her Crayons to Perfume show: wfmu.org...
	4:12pm Linda Lee: happy monkey new year Jake!
	4:13pm cosmic matrix: What kind of snare is THAT???
	4:13pm cosmic matrix: incredible song
	4:21pm P-90: Thanks @djsheilab, DJ Glynis does a great show, and I missed "60's Sirens", which is right up my alley.
	4:29pm Uncle Michael: Happy Boom Boom New Year!
	4:34pm Adrian in London: Yes, Valerie is a Czech film
	4:35pm glenn: erotic lesbian film? let me guess - they DON"T move in after their second date.
	4:36pm Adrian in London: Love this soundtrack, really works well in the film.
	4:38pm maestroso: Arriving late to the comments board... Happy New Year SheilaB! That Cat's Eyes track was gorgeous.
	4:41pm B/wad: Hi Sheila, Great show great set. Vibing down here in Tel Aviv ;)
	4:44pm Ken From Hyde Park: I wonder what's the identity of N/A? That was a nice song.
	4:46pm thornebrandt: ^ Also searching for that N/A song.
	4:47pm djsheilab: I looked everywhere but couldn't find a tracklist for this mix : ( I can ask Mahssa and play it again when I get the proper info.
	4:48pm djsheilab: Thanks @B/wad!
	4:49pm djsheilab: UP OFF THE COUCH EVERYONE!!!!!
	4:50pm Adrian in London: A propos of nothing: Japanese chocolates that look like the solar system www.rihga.co.jp...
	4:53pm Linda Lee: i want a cookie.
	5:03pm P-90: Sheila B discovers Michael Shelley, demonstrates her unerringly brilliant taste once more
	5:05pm Linda Lee: plaything ... wwwwaaaoooowwww. superior.
	5:05pm djsheilab: @P-90 : )
	5:06pm GeorgeSimian: Loved that Rub My Tummy song
	5:06pm GeorgeSimian: Another excellent show!
	5:09pm northguineahills: That Jean DuShon had a Screaming Jay Hawkins vibe to it for some reason (or I'm just hungover).
	5:14pm Adrian in London: Got to get this album; I've liked everything from it you've played.
	5:15pm djsheilab: Yes yes yes! @Adrian! It is pure magic. Couldn't recommend it enough!
	5:17pm JakeGould: Undertow?
	5:17pm northguineahills: Curve! I haven't binged on Curve in a while.....
	5:17pm JakeGould: Nope! Curve.
	5:18pm Adrian in London: Blimey, is this Curve?! I think I have this 12.
	5:18pm efd: Love this Curve song! Been enjoying the show today, Sheila! Happy New Year!
	5:20pm sugarplum fairywolf: Hello! Finally get a chance to tune in...
	5:21pm GeorgeSimian: Just googled Oxford Drama. Cutest band ever. Polish experimental. wtf?
	5:21pm djsheilab: Happy New Year @Evan! I'm happy you're listening : )
	5:21pm sugarplum fairywolf: Watched the Duke of Burgundy a few months ago... I like that all the ladies were in the audience of the presentation were wearing the same thing ... Also there were dummies in the audience?!?!
	5:22pm djsheilab: @GeorgeSimian A most mysterious duo and so brilliant!
	5:25pm shusei: wow last japanese track sounds like yoko ono to me
	5:29pm JakeGould: @djsheilab: FWIW, I remember that first “pilot” show of yours where 1/2 hour was not you and then it was and then it was cut off. Charmingly WFMU!
	5:30pm northguineahills: I believe Curve put their whole back catalog out for free download or stream. Can't remember if it's on bandcamp or their own site.
	5:32pm Listener Robert: I was out for a while, missed "Home Wrecker". Is it anything like "Homewrecker's Blues" by Poopy Lungstuffing? www.youtube.com...
	5:33pm JakeGould: Yahoo! Auctions Japan is BETTER than eBay because 98% of the time the descriptions are accurate, the photos are clear and tons of details. Kudos to Japanese quality and attention to detail.
	5:35pm P-90: Yay! we don't hear enough Della Reese on WFMU
	5:38pm listener james from westwood: Hells yes to this Della!
	5:38pm JtotheK: great Della track! she has some cool popcorn 45s, too! like 'a clock that's got no hands', and 'blow out the sun' ...
	5:38pm northguineahills: Super thanks! Happy new cheers!
	5:41pm The Contessa: That was slightly Vic Reeves!
	5:41pm tinkle bear: sheila b, and the old codger. both virtuosos at the fine art of the rant. never on the air at the same time....

	5:43pm P-90: 明けましておめでとうございますSheila-san
	5:44pm JakeGould: @tinklebear: That is a fine idea for a show: “Old Codger Talks to the Youth of Today.”
	5:44pm djsheilab: 新年あけましておめでとう！@P-90
	5:44pm sugarplum fairywolf: Back to work HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone

	5:48pm Todd-o-phonic: Shall I assume from today's playlist that you got shutdown on the Dylan box set you wanted for Xmas???

	5:50pm djsheilab: @TOPT You're just in time for Mary Love!
	5:51pm Jeezy: Arggghhh my brain. Who's idea was it for me to close a bar in Ridgewood down till 4:30AM?!
	5:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Tough break, Jeezy. Stay hydrated, I guess. Welcome to 2016!
	5:55pm Todd-o-phonic: MARY LOVE RULES!!!
	5:56pm Jeezy: I think I lost the hydration battle many hours ago... But thanks, Ken!
