Listener comments!
	7:00pm melinda: howdy!
	7:01pm ndbob: Heya Melinda! Gary!
	7:02pm Gary: Hi Melinda and Bob!
	7:07pm listener james from westwood: How do, all! Ever get the feeling you've been covered?
	7:09pm ndbob: Hi James!
	7:10pm Gary: James!
	7:10pm listener james from westwood: Hey hey, ndbob!
	7:11pm ndbob: woah Gary - what a cover
	7:12pm Gary: I can't believe that (a) I'd never heard it, or even of it before and (b) no one had played it on this station
	7:12pm Dean: I'm pretty sure I have a lounge-y cover of "Pretty Vacant" by some guy, Paul somebody-or-other. Kinda fun.
	7:14pm Gary: Howdy Dean! I'd love to know who that is
	7:14pm northguineahills: i still have a Veruca Salt cassette.
	7:15pm Gary: NGH!
	7:15pm ndbob: I had a couple Veruca Salt cds
	7:16pm Dean: Well, shoot, there it is! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmNocMeL3AA
	7:16pm steve: hey Gary
	7:16pm Gary: Steve!
	7:17pm Gary: Oh, thanks, Dean!
	🇰🇷 7:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hullo Garys Sulli- & Old- man! That hammer & sickle is a cop-out on Sid's swastika...but I think the film has merits... Did that thing you pick your Top 20 albums of all everything - an impossible number of course. No Ramones - no Pistols - but the Clash's 1st. But - the impact of this album - & the fact that Sid was necessary - but really, it's the genius of John Lydon. Nobody was saying that about the Queen in the mid-1970s before them...Anybody can be a Rawk Band - you need Songs, Ideas, Shamanism. Lydo delivered on all fronts.
	7:18pm Alex In Illinois: Varuca Salt. Louise Post was a year or two or three behind me at the same high school as me.
	7:18pm Gary: Ha, good eyes, RevRab!
	7:19pm Gary: Alex!
	7:19pm Gary: RevRab, the Pistols had such a huge influence on me and my high school friends that we formed a band called Submission
	7:20pm Alex In Illinois: Back in high school, I never imagined her singing a Pistols cover.
	🇰🇷 7:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'God Save the Queen' got to #1 in the Queen's Jubilee - but they left the Charts blank! Nothing for Number One! An Alternate National Anthem for the Queen's 25th. That is true Folk Music. What higher thing can a Songwriter achieve?
	7:21pm Doug Schulkind: Thank you so much for filling in for me last Friday, Gary!
	7:23pm ndbob: wow Alex!
	7:23pm northguineahills: Sorry, I have to leave. Thanks Gary!
	7:23pm Gary: You're welcome, Doug! Thank you for entrusting me with your hallowed space!
	7:24pm Gary: Ciao, NGH!
	7:25pm Dean: My wife works with the lead singer of The Avengers, the last band to open for the Pistols before they disbanded in '78.
	7:26pm Gary: The Avengers were a huge deal among a lot of my friends in 80s San Francisco, but I was late to them -- I didn't hear them until very recently, and I still haven't heard much of them ... I need an education
	7:27pm Gary: RevRab, I don't think I know about the blank #1 space before
	7:29pm Gary: French people pretending to be Americans covering Brits
	7:34pm Dean: Good lord, I just got an email reporting that The Mentors are playing Hollywood's Viper Room this Sunday. Whu?!
	7:39pm steve: according to Lydon's recent memoir, Sid's all time favorite album was Tago Mago by Can. how bizarre is that?
	7:39pm hyde: there is nothing new under the sun
	7:40pm Gary: Kurt's Cover Version show with (most? all?) of this album: wfmu.org...
	7:40pm Gary: Hyde! @Steve, I think Johnny was super into them
	7:42pm Dean: Pianist here is Benoît Delbecq. That's amazing.
	7:43pm steve: yes! he was so into krautrock. i also love that he was totally against the "disco sucks" movement and loved the Fatback Band.
	🇰🇷 7:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Meme' (a story online...) came up about a High School kid writing a letter to SubPop asking Nirvana to play their prom or some such - ignorant that Nirvana didn't exist...Made me remark that I still - honestly - don't even know the lyrics to 'Nevermind the Bollocks' - much less 'Nevermind'... I exalt Lydon's writing - but the impact of the Pistols & their - really one - album was more visceral, adrenal...Rawk is Gestures of course... ...So...it's even now interesting for me to hear Covers & such look @ the Songs as Songs - & the Themes, &tc. The Berlin Wall? What is that Daddy?...They're dissing the New York Dolls - only because they owe so much to them (sonically especially)...Did I ever think 'Bodies' was AntiAbortion in 1977 ?? I had no clue @ 13-4 years old. It was Shock, adolescence...the mere hormonal fact of Sex as indeed a Ballistic...
	7:49pm Dean: Didja skip "Pretty Vacant"?
	7:53pm hyde: that first set was great, but i was really hoping for some Los Punk Rockers!
	7:54pm Gary: Oh, shit ... did I skip "Pretty Vacant"?
	🇰🇷 7:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Lydon tastes (including Jimi) : www.npr.org...
	7:54pm Gary: [hangs head] ... every effing show I fuck something up
	🇰🇷 7:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Petty Vacancy !
	7:55pm hyde: @Gary haha, it's the mistakes that make us human
	7:55pm Dean: Now, now. I bet there's a 14 nanosecond version of it out there. You played it. You didn't miss it. We did.
	7:58pm ndbob: excellent first hour Gary! catch the rest later
	🇰🇷 7:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Brian Tuner interviews Lydon : wfmu.org...
	7:58pm Gary: Hyde, I can play the Los PUnk Rockers' version of Pretty Vacant later tonight perhaps. I think I had The Artichokes version of it set to go ... but somehow lost it in the shuffle
	8:01pm hyde: heh, don't throw off your schedule on my account if you've got other things to play!
	8:02pm Gary: This is not quite ShittyFlutte, but ...
	8:03pm melinda: Shittyflute-esque!
	8:04pm melinda: I really like this cover. I tend to like Nirvana when others cover their tunes, never got into them back when they were hot.
	8:05pm Gary: Melinda, you will be happy to know that Bandcamp is a veritable treasure trove of Nirvana covers. As is YouTube!
	🇰🇷 8:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Two great game-changing albums & writers (Lydon & Cobain) - but delivered in a manner that obscured the words. I actually pulled away from Nirvana because of my anti populism - but - the guy was just too close to home for me - born mid-1960s & on & on...I think I'm over Nirvana, then you hear how great his writing really was...
	🇰🇷 8:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...some people have good taste but smell bad - & others have bad taste but smell good...
	8:10pm melinda: Hearing Sinead O'Connor's version of this helped me understand why Nirvana was such a big deal.
	8:10pm melinda: Great album title.
	8:11pm Rich in Washington: this track made my jaw drop out of my head when I first heard it.
	8:11pm steve: whoa!!
	8:12pm Gary: Rich!
	8:13pm steve: i gotta go look up King Crimson covers later, this is my fav rock album but i've somehow never looked up covers before.
	8:13pm tim abdellah: Hey Gary and all - late to the party again... "Epitaph" is somehow well-known in Morocco. I heard it on a stereo between trance suites at a Gnawa lila in Marrakech, once.
	8:14pm glenn: april wine does a stellar 21st century schizoid man.
	🇰🇷 8:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...song makes a lot of sense thru a Japanese filter...
	8:16pm Rich in Washington: Doc "The Tonight Show" Severin does a boss rendition of The Court Of The Crimson King.
	8:16pm Gary: Tim! Did you hear the King Crimson version then, or a cover?
	8:17pm Gary: Glenn!
	8:17pm Rich in Washington: Barbra Streisand does Pictures of a City.
	8:17pm Rich in Washington: Not really. That would be funny, though.
	8:18pm steve: id love a William Shatner version of any KC, that seems like it could almost happen
	8:18pm Gary: Shatner would hit KC out of the ballpark
	8:18pm Rich in Washington: @steve: It seems like he should, right?
	🇰🇷 8:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Shatner - 'Circus'...lemme think...
	8:19pm glenn: john wetton played on shat's version of bohemian rhapsody, so almost.
	8:20pm tim abdellah: It was the KC version of "Epitaph". Haven't yet heard a Moroccan version of it!! But it seems to be well known in Morocco. My niece the other day asked me if I knew the song, 'xos some Moroccan friend had mentioned it to her on Facebook.
	8:21pm Gary: I'm not sure I can express how much love I felt for RED when I was 14
	🇰🇷 8:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously - what an album. What a jam.
	8:22pm Rich in Washington: Red is life changing.
	8:23pm Rich in Washington: I have heard a really awful, plodding cover of Larks somewhere. I wish I knew where, what, etc.
	8:25pm Rich in Washington: was it Peter Nelson?
	8:25pm Rich in Washington: THAT'S where I heard it! His show was fantastic! I hope he comes back again someday.
	8:28pm hyde: Anthony Wong Chau Sang is where it's at, as far as i'm concerned
	8:34pm Gary: Yes, Rich -- Peter Nelson! I miss his show so much ... :(
	8:34pm Gary: Shit, I'm already crying
	8:34pm Jesse K: Hi Gary, don't cry!
	8:35pm Gary: Jesse! Next song is going to make me cry even more ...
	8:38pm Gary: Sorry -- cat knocked over a pot of water
	8:39pm listener james from westwood: Aww! Don't be cry, as Liz Lemon said!
	8:40pm Gary: the-toast.net...
	8:42pm melinda: I was puttering in the kitchen thinking 'this sounds like a Judee Sill cover' though I don't know this particular song.
	8:43pm listener james from westwood: Goddamn, I will miss The Toast.
	8:45pm tim abdellah: Wow! Nice Softs cover!
	9:03pm tim abdellah: Catch up with ya later, Gary. Warriors time!
	9:04pm Gary: Night, Tim!
	9:05pm coelacanth: greetings Gary and Bodegasattvas
	9:06pm Gary: Coelacanth!
	9:09pm coelacanth: cheez, what i miss ... - i love versions of not-oft-covered songs.
	9:10pm Gary: Coelacanth, if nothing else, come back for Nancy Spungen's Holidays in the Sun
	9:12pm Uncle Michael: What a playlist!
	9:13pm Gary: Michael! Are you still in Cubs World?
	9:13pm hyde: man, i sure played this Slits album a lot in my dorm room
	9:14pm coelacanth: oh, Gary i've already starred the episode! ...ironically - since i got here all 3 songs you've played are songs i already know, and 2 of them own copies of. ...weird.
	9:16pm Uncle Michael: I'm back home since Monday.
	9:16pm Gary: You have Acid's version of Insane in the Brain? Color me impressed ...
	9:18pm Gary: Uncle Michael, what is the most insanely great meal you had there? I'm kind of obsessed with Chicago food ...
	9:20pm Uncle Michael: I didn't do anything insanely great, meal-wise. I did hit up a couple of old standbys. I had a great Italian beef at Al's. I also had the perch at Half Shell, a favorite meal since 1968.
	9:20pm Gary: In my mind, I am already married to The Raincoats
	9:20pm coelacanth: Gary, i don't know if i'll ever impress you! i'd never heard that before tonight. i came in at the end of your mic break. i do have this too though, so that's 4 out of 5!
	9:20pm Gary: Oh, i have to find this half shell place
	9:21pm melinda: Love the Raincoats.
	9:22pm Uncle Michael: It's on Diversey, a block west of where Clark and Broadway diverge.
	9:24pm Gary: @Coelacanth, I'm already impressed by your online name
	9:25pm Alex In Illinois: When I first came to the Chicago area I was confused about Italian Beef. I thought: "What's wrong with beef from cows here in America?", and then I also signs for "Vienna Beef" and I thought: "they're importing beef from Austria too!?"
	9:26pm coelacanth: haha! - anyway, i just thought it ironic because i don't know that i've heard anything at all that you played in the first 2 hours...and often i don't know anything in a whole program prior to you playing it.
	9:27pm melinda: Michael Jackson, yes. haha.
	9:27pm Uncle Michael: Confusion about Italian beef ends with the first bite.
	9:27pm Rich in Washington: Holy crap! This is nuts!
	9:29pm Alex In Illinois: Yes, it certainly does.
	9:31pm Alex In Illinois: Johnnie's is the closest Italian Beef place to where I live, though I think a few hot dog / gyro places have it on the menu too.
	9:32pm melinda: Carol King & Shirelles, yes.
	9:32pm Uncle Michael: I have to make my own.
	9:32pm Alex In Illinois: That version of Locomotion would have suited me perfectly when I was in my teens and 20's
	9:34pm Alex In Illinois: It just occurred to me that I don't know what cut of beef I would buy at the grocery store for making Italian beef.
	9:34pm Gary: Hey, yeah, Michael: What cut?
	9:35pm Uncle Michael: I usually buy bottom round.
	9:36pm Alex In Illinois: I know there is at least one song with which I got to like the cover, then found the original version disappointing.
	9:38pm Uncle Michael: Italian Beef master class: www.seriouseats.com...
	9:40pm Gary: Holy crap I want one of those ^
	9:47pm melinda: This is so fun.
	9:54pm coelacanth: Alex, there's a few. "without you" comes to mind; but because i generally really like badfinger i gave the original a few chances and did grow to like it just as much as Nilsson's. 'depends on my mood.
	9:58pm melinda: Great Cranberries cover. I always want to call them the Raspberries.
	9:59pm Uncle Michael: Eric Carmen would be displeased.
	9:59pm Gary: The Bronx Raspberries
	9:59pm Gary: Wait, Eric Carmen wrote this song for the Cranberries?
	10:00pm coelacanth: really?!
	10:00pm Uncle Michael: I think not! Thanks for the tunes, Gary.
	10:02pm Uncle Michael: George Formby will rise from the dead and get you.
	10:02pm coelacanth: (it's called "dreams")
	10:04pm coelacanth: Thanks Gary! Stellar program! ciao
	10:05pm Gary: So nice to see you all!
	10:11pm melinda: Great show Gary!

	🇰🇷 7:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Meme' (a story online...) came up about a High School kid writing a letter to SubPop asking Nirvana to play their prom or some such - ignorant that Nirvana didn't exist...Made me remark that I still - honestly - don't even know the lyrics to 'Nevermind the Bollocks' - much less 'Nevermind'... I exalt Lydon's writing - but the impact of the Pistols & their - really one - album was more visceral, adrenal...Rawk is Gestures of course... ...So...it's even now interesting for me to hear Covers & such look @ the Songs as Songs - & the Themes, &tc. The Berlin Wall? What is that Daddy?...They're dissing the New York Dolls - only because they owe so much to them (sonically especially)...Did I ever think 'Bodies' was AntiAbortion in 1977 ?? I had no clue @ 13-4 years old. It was Shock, adolescence...the mere hormonal fact of Sex as indeed a Ballistic...
	7:49pm Dean: Didja skip "Pretty Vacant"?
	7:53pm hyde: that first set was great, but i was really hoping for some Los Punk Rockers!
	7:54pm Gary: Oh, shit ... did I skip "Pretty Vacant"?
	🇰🇷 7:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Lydon tastes (including Jimi) : www.npr.org...
	7:54pm Gary: [hangs head] ... every effing show I fuck something up
	🇰🇷 7:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Petty Vacancy !
	7:55pm hyde: @Gary haha, it's the mistakes that make us human
	7:55pm Dean: Now, now. I bet there's a 14 nanosecond version of it out there. You played it. You didn't miss it. We did.
	7:58pm ndbob: excellent first hour Gary! catch the rest later
	🇰🇷 7:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Brian Tuner interviews Lydon : wfmu.org...
	7:58pm Gary: Hyde, I can play the Los PUnk Rockers' version of Pretty Vacant later tonight perhaps. I think I had The Artichokes version of it set to go ... but somehow lost it in the shuffle
	8:01pm hyde: heh, don't throw off your schedule on my account if you've got other things to play!
	8:02pm Gary: This is not quite ShittyFlutte, but ...
	8:03pm melinda: Shittyflute-esque!
	8:04pm melinda: I really like this cover. I tend to like Nirvana when others cover their tunes, never got into them back when they were hot.
	8:05pm Gary: Melinda, you will be happy to know that Bandcamp is a veritable treasure trove of Nirvana covers. As is YouTube!
	🇰🇷 8:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Two great game-changing albums & writers (Lydon & Cobain) - but delivered in a manner that obscured the words. I actually pulled away from Nirvana because of my anti populism - but - the guy was just too close to home for me - born mid-1960s & on & on...I think I'm over Nirvana, then you hear how great his writing really was...
	🇰🇷 8:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...some people have good taste but smell bad - & others have bad taste but smell good...
	8:10pm melinda: Hearing Sinead O'Connor's version of this helped me understand why Nirvana was such a big deal.
	8:10pm melinda: Great album title.
	8:11pm Rich in Washington: this track made my jaw drop out of my head when I first heard it.
	8:11pm steve: whoa!!
	8:12pm Gary: Rich!
	8:13pm steve: i gotta go look up King Crimson covers later, this is my fav rock album but i've somehow never looked up covers before.
	8:13pm tim abdellah: Hey Gary and all - late to the party again... "Epitaph" is somehow well-known in Morocco. I heard it on a stereo between trance suites at a Gnawa lila in Marrakech, once.
	8:14pm glenn: april wine does a stellar 21st century schizoid man.
	🇰🇷 8:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...song makes a lot of sense thru a Japanese filter...
	8:16pm Rich in Washington: Doc "The Tonight Show" Severin does a boss rendition of The Court Of The Crimson King.
	8:16pm Gary: Tim! Did you hear the King Crimson version then, or a cover?
	8:17pm Gary: Glenn!
	8:17pm Rich in Washington: Barbra Streisand does Pictures of a City.
	8:17pm Rich in Washington: Not really. That would be funny, though.
	8:18pm steve: id love a William Shatner version of any KC, that seems like it could almost happen
	8:18pm Gary: Shatner would hit KC out of the ballpark
	8:18pm Rich in Washington: @steve: It seems like he should, right?
	🇰🇷 8:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Shatner - 'Circus'...lemme think...
	8:19pm glenn: john wetton played on shat's version of bohemian rhapsody, so almost.
	8:20pm tim abdellah: It was the KC version of "Epitaph". Haven't yet heard a Moroccan version of it!! But it seems to be well known in Morocco. My niece the other day asked me if I knew the song, 'xos some Moroccan friend had mentioned it to her on Facebook.
	8:21pm Gary: I'm not sure I can express how much love I felt for RED when I was 14
	🇰🇷 8:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously - what an album. What a jam.
	8:22pm Rich in Washington: Red is life changing.
	8:23pm Rich in Washington: I have heard a really awful, plodding cover of Larks somewhere. I wish I knew where, what, etc.
	8:25pm Rich in Washington: was it Peter Nelson?
	8:25pm Rich in Washington: THAT'S where I heard it! His show was fantastic! I hope he comes back again someday.
	8:28pm hyde: Anthony Wong Chau Sang is where it's at, as far as i'm concerned
	8:34pm Gary: Yes, Rich -- Peter Nelson! I miss his show so much ... :(
	8:34pm Gary: Shit, I'm already crying
	8:34pm Jesse K: Hi Gary, don't cry!
	8:35pm Gary: Jesse! Next song is going to make me cry even more ...
	8:38pm Gary: Sorry -- cat knocked over a pot of water
	8:39pm listener james from westwood: Aww! Don't be cry, as Liz Lemon said!
	8:40pm Gary: the-toast.net...
	8:42pm melinda: I was puttering in the kitchen thinking 'this sounds like a Judee Sill cover' though I don't know this particular song.
	8:43pm listener james from westwood: Goddamn, I will miss The Toast.
	8:45pm tim abdellah: Wow! Nice Softs cover!
	9:03pm tim abdellah: Catch up with ya later, Gary. Warriors time!
	9:04pm Gary: Night, Tim!
	9:05pm coelacanth: greetings Gary and Bodegasattvas
	9:06pm Gary: Coelacanth!
	9:09pm coelacanth: cheez, what i miss ... - i love versions of not-oft-covered songs.
	9:10pm Gary: Coelacanth, if nothing else, come back for Nancy Spungen's Holidays in the Sun
	9:12pm Uncle Michael: What a playlist!
	9:13pm Gary: Michael! Are you still in Cubs World?
	9:13pm hyde: man, i sure played this Slits album a lot in my dorm room
	9:14pm coelacanth: oh, Gary i've already starred the episode! ...ironically - since i got here all 3 songs you've played are songs i already know, and 2 of them own copies of. ...weird.
	9:16pm Uncle Michael: I'm back home since Monday.
	9:16pm Gary: You have Acid's version of Insane in the Brain? Color me impressed ...
	9:18pm Gary: Uncle Michael, what is the most insanely great meal you had there? I'm kind of obsessed with Chicago food ...
	9:20pm Uncle Michael: I didn't do anything insanely great, meal-wise. I did hit up a couple of old standbys. I had a great Italian beef at Al's. I also had the perch at Half Shell, a favorite meal since 1968.
	9:20pm Gary: In my mind, I am already married to The Raincoats
	9:20pm coelacanth: Gary, i don't know if i'll ever impress you! i'd never heard that before tonight. i came in at the end of your mic break. i do have this too though, so that's 4 out of 5!
	9:20pm Gary: Oh, i have to find this half shell place
	9:21pm melinda: Love the Raincoats.
	9:22pm Uncle Michael: It's on Diversey, a block west of where Clark and Broadway diverge.
	9:24pm Gary: @Coelacanth, I'm already impressed by your online name
	9:25pm Alex In Illinois: When I first came to the Chicago area I was confused about Italian Beef. I thought: "What's wrong with beef from cows here in America?", and then I also signs for "Vienna Beef" and I thought: "they're importing beef from Austria too!?"
	9:26pm coelacanth: haha! - anyway, i just thought it ironic because i don't know that i've heard anything at all that you played in the first 2 hours...and often i don't know anything in a whole program prior to you playing it.
	9:27pm melinda: Michael Jackson, yes. haha.
	9:27pm Uncle Michael: Confusion about Italian beef ends with the first bite.
	9:27pm Rich in Washington: Holy crap! This is nuts!
	9:29pm Alex In Illinois: Yes, it certainly does.
	9:31pm Alex In Illinois: Johnnie's is the closest Italian Beef place to where I live, though I think a few hot dog / gyro places have it on the menu too.
	9:32pm melinda: Carol King & Shirelles, yes.
	9:32pm Uncle Michael: I have to make my own.
	9:32pm Alex In Illinois: That version of Locomotion would have suited me perfectly when I was in my teens and 20's
	9:34pm Alex In Illinois: It just occurred to me that I don't know what cut of beef I would buy at the grocery store for making Italian beef.
	9:34pm Gary: Hey, yeah, Michael: What cut?
	9:35pm Uncle Michael: I usually buy bottom round.
	9:36pm Alex In Illinois: I know there is at least one song with which I got to like the cover, then found the original version disappointing.
	9:38pm Uncle Michael: Italian Beef master class: www.seriouseats.com...
	9:40pm Gary: Holy crap I want one of those ^
	9:47pm melinda: This is so fun.
	9:54pm coelacanth: Alex, there's a few. "without you" comes to mind; but because i generally really like badfinger i gave the original a few chances and did grow to like it just as much as Nilsson's. 'depends on my mood.
	9:58pm melinda: Great Cranberries cover. I always want to call them the Raspberries.
	9:59pm Uncle Michael: Eric Carmen would be displeased.
	9:59pm Gary: The Bronx Raspberries
	9:59pm Gary: Wait, Eric Carmen wrote this song for the Cranberries?
	10:00pm coelacanth: really?!
	10:00pm Uncle Michael: I think not! Thanks for the tunes, Gary.
	10:02pm Uncle Michael: George Formby will rise from the dead and get you.
	10:02pm coelacanth: (it's called "dreams")
	10:04pm coelacanth: Thanks Gary! Stellar program! ciao
	10:05pm Gary: So nice to see you all!
	10:11pm melinda: Great show Gary!
