	3:08pm Ken From Hyde Park: I'm still thankful from yesterday for some reason. Am I doing something wrong?
	3:08pm listener james from westwood: Suddenly possessed by an urge to hear "Been Caught Stealing" to compare the beat vs. the one on this track. Don't think that ever hit for me before.
	3:08pm The Contessa: Hello @Ken, we're freezing here. How are you?
	3:12pm Adrian in London: drains glass Evening all…
	3:12pm JtotheK: hi sheilaB, hi boom boomers. enjoying the program on vacation today -- ie, with beer in hand.
	3:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, @The Contessa. Sitting around the house like a lazy bum today, avoiding the urge to go to the stores to spend money. Feels good to relax. @Sheila - How did Thanksgiving go for you?
	3:13pm The Contessa: @Ken, good move, all we need is right here
	3:17pm JtotheK: didn't know that bessie banks, dig it. would pair nicely with 'i don't need no doctor' ... ray charles and/or nick ashford.
	3:18pm common: and...beersies. hello!
	3:19pm P-90: Happy Day After Turkey Day, @DJ Sheila B and ThanksBoomers!
	3:19pm djsheilab: Ooh! That would've been a fab pairing @JtotheK. And the Sugarcubes "Hit" with Jane's Addiction's "Been Caught Stealing" as @listener james pointed out. What missed opportunities!
	3:20pm djsheilab: @Ken from Hyde Park That sounds like the right plan on this Black Friday. Thanksgiving was delicious and family conflict-free!
	3:21pm Whooda: Thanks for the show and tell DJ Sophisticated Boom Boom Shelia.
	3:25pm Whooda: Too weird was just thinking of Rickie Lee Jones (and Tom Waits) earlier today. Was wondering what folks 50 years from now will think when they run across a TW recording.
	3:26pm djsheilab: @Whooda Glad you're enjoying!
	3:28pm listener james from westwood: Whistlin' along with Oscar and Felix! And craving a cigar-heavy poker game.
	3:30pm The Contessa: Loved The Odd Couple!
	3:31pm common: it does look like a whale.
	3:32pm P-90: Cool! A Two Teabag Show!
	3:33pm JakeGould: Hey! Hoo! Hi!
	3:35pm Whooda: Turkey is a clusterfuck, don't get me started.
	3:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: Found it! www.facebook.com... Yes, not good news for many citizens of Turkey.
	3:36pm TDK60: I agree with your brother, Sheila. That new station doesn't impress me. My subway stop looks like s**t. And they're going to raise the fares again. Not pleased. And I'm anti-Trump and anti-Erdogan.
	3:36pm Rob Kopp: The best vinyl I managed to find on the record fair 2 weeks ago was EP Canta en Espanol by Caterina Caselli. Standout track: Es la juventud (=Baby please don't go with the same backing track as her Italian version Sono qui con voi)
	3:38pm mcjhn: like this one!
	3:38pm Rob Kopp: me too
	3:41pm common: yea!
	3:43pm geezerette: bat-man!
	3:44pm JakeGould: Fascism around the world. Stinks.
	3:45pm Rob Kopp: love every version of this ongs
	3:46pm djsheilab: @Rob Kopp Agreed!
	3:46pm geezerette: Jake, how I wish you were wrong.
	3:46pm JtotheK: nice version of comin' home.
	3:46pm Whooda: RIP Florence Henderson www.youtube.com...
	3:47pm ChrisB.: Capitol's Ultra Lounge series was great. Christmas Cocktails Vol.1-3 are a must for the holidays.
	3:47pm listener james from westwood: "Money Talks"?!
	3:47pm listener james from westwood: "Money Talks"!
	3:47pm Rob Kopp: I'm still lookin' for the American single of Sylvie Vartan with this song and Whirlpool on the b-side. For me the 2 best tracks she ever did
	3:49pm andrew: florence henderson had more wesson-ality than anyone .
	3:49pm Laurie H: That weight loss song was amazing! And so true.
	3:52pm Adrian in London: @Rob Kopp Do you have the Roche Martin records? I've only heard the first EP but there are some extra tracks on a huge Veronique Sanson box set, which I'm not paying for…
	3:53pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian: No. Roche Martin is a new name for me
	3:53pm The Contessa: When we saw them play IN THE DARK we all nearly fell asleep. They were amazing!
	3:54pm Adrian in London: @Sheila My pleasure. Boom-boomers, if you ever get the chance to see Bohren play live just go; they're amazing!!
	3:54pm geezerette: Sheila B., you are brilliant.
	3:55pm djsheilab: @Adrian in London I will indeed! I also bought this CD for my dad + he adores it.
	3:55pm Adrian in London: @Rob I think you'll like them. They were Veronique Sanson's first band.Sort of like the Swingle Singers via Stereolab. (Not really but, y'know…)
	3:55pm djsheilab: @geezerette Awww...thanks! (blushes)
	3:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Aretha Franklin singing about freedom and stuff yesterday: youtu.be...
	3:56pm The Contessa: Everyone loves Sheila B's dad…
	3:58pm Rob Kopp: I found a couple of tracks of Les Roche Martin on YouTube. Here's Wanda Jackson's Whirlpool by Sylvie vartan www.youtube.com...
	3:58pm listener james from westwood: Explicitly remember buying this Shannon 45 new at the Boston Tower Records after a cover of this cut got my mom's attention as the theme song to the short-lived Michael Mann series "Crime Story" 'round about '88ish.
	3:59pm JakeGould: Keep calm, freedom and happiness in the front of your minds nowadays! And Del Shannon as well.
	4:01pm geezerette: Tip hat to Bert Williams. Ethel Waters was a genius.
	4:02pm Rob Kopp: @SheilaB: Do you know Black, brown and white blues by Big Bill Broonzy ('47)?
	4:04pm The Contessa: As I said, everyone loves Sheila B's dad
	4:05pm Carmichael: Heya Sheila. Checking in from my car.
	4:10pm listener james from westwood: That backstory'll put an interesting spin on the use of this song in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" the next time I see that scene.
	4:11pm TDK60: Let me go over and hang with Sheila's dad and his dark music and light some jazz cigarettes.
	4:12pm JtotheK: i found the joanie sommers 'why don't you do right' 45 this week! so many great versions ... still partial to Mark Murphy though.
	4:13pm Mandy: this is making me want to watch Who Framed Roger Rabbit
	4:13pm djsheilab: @JtotheK I don't know the Mark Murphy or the Joanie Sommers versions. Must dig 'em up!
	4:14pm djsheilab: @Mandy Yes! Sung so sensually by Jessica Rabbit :)
	4:15pm JakeGould: Sheila's dad will always be the guy who broke the news that the Bee Gees are men to her. Such sad. :/
	4:15pm Rob Kopp: here are some other versions: www.originals.be... I'm afraid is in Dutch, but the 5th edition of Arnold 'mister originals' Rypens book The originals is in English. It's a treat for every music lover
	4:16pm JtotheK: check out cleo jons cover...and joe loco...and fats domino...and herbie mann!
	4:17pm djsheilab: Oh wow...I could've done an entire show of "Why Don't You Do Right?" and then at the end we'd all never be able to listen to it ever again!
	4:18pm common: like ken likes to do with certain songs, djsheilab
	4:18pm JtotheK: and the nichelle nichols - didn't know that version until you mentioned it, i gotta find that 45!
	4:23pm Adrian in London: Oh, of course, it's Dom la Nena. She's lovely, again another great live show. In London she insisted the audience get up and dance. Cue the Latin Americans throwing amazing fluid moves with gay abandon while we pasty English types shuffled self-consciously.
	4:26pm Bob: Sheila, I love your show, always. There is a great version of "Why don't you do right" by Johnny Otis that came out in the 80s. The thing that makes it great is it is a duet with a man and woman yelling (singing) back and forth at each other to do right (and get me some money). I think you would really enjoy it. I do.
	4:28pm djsheilab: Thanks @Bob! I haven't heard an 80s version. I shall look it up for sure!
	4:29pm JakeGould: Nothing as magical as two people shouting at each other about money in song.
	4:30pm Summer and Michael: Great show, Sheila! And Happy Thanksgiving! We love you!
	4:30pm djsheilab: HA!! You kill me @JakeGould!
	4:37pm The Contessa: YOU'VE NEVER WATCHED STAR TREK!!!
	4:37pm Frank from Santa Cruz: My warped records fix. get two pieces of plate glass, thick like table glass. but records between and put in oven at lowest setting for like 30 minutes. works like a charm.
	4:38pm Rob Kopp: I have 7 C90-casettes with the song Summertime, and you can easily play them after each other! When there's ONE song with SO many covers in SO many styles, it's that song.
	4:39pm JakeGould: Sheila never watched "Star Trek?" Wowza!
	4:41pm djsheilab: Vinyl in the oven?!!! That sounds terrifying @Frank from Santa Cruz.
	4:42pm JtotheK: see also bobby bland 'yum yum tree', 'honey child' and 'shoes' (definitely shoes!) - a lot of great 45s...
	4:43pm Scraps deSelby: h'lo hi hm
	4:43pm listener james from westwood: 80s represent!
	4:43pm Adrian in London: Ha ha! Yes, you said you were going to play Duran Duran! Well done! applies lip gloss pouts
	4:43pm JakeGould: Save it for the morning after.
	4:46pm Rob Kopp: @Jake: That's the only Duran Duran single I have: Save a prayer
	4:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: The funniest thing ever would be to pull things out of the oven and finding two pieces of warped plate glass.
	4:48pm Scraps: I don't like Duran Duran Duran Duran, but Save a Prayer is a great song. The way it goes a bit higher on the end of the chorus/hook is amazing
	4:49pm Sem Chumbo: Wonderful Big Joe! Thanks, djsheilaB
	4:49pm JakeGould: Ahhh! I love this Big How Turner.
	4:50pm Neil UK: This predates Rocket 88. Gotta be the first rock & roll record.
	4:50pm east hollywood: "Im like a one-eyed cat...." IMHO the dirtiest line ever in a pop song
	4:52pm djsheilab: @east hollywood Seriously! Was gonna point out that lyric during my mic break. Must always highlight the naughty bits for my listeners :)
	4:53pm Neil UK: Doh! Much more recent than I thought.
	4:55pm JakeGould: Mangy stray cats are my friends. Including a few one eyed cats.
	4:57pm djsheilab: It's incredible how badly most Amy records have been pressed.
	5:02pm JakeGould: Pressing or mastering?
	5:06pm east hollywood: Hearing Sheila B blush through my speakers--- that's great radio
	5:07pm Rob Kopp: Writing is so easy. Just lock yourself up for 8 years and publish the result!
	5:09pm djsheilab: @jakeGould I've actually heard the masters and they sound fine. It's the records.
	5:14pm geezerette: "There You Are" is GREAT!!! :)
	5:15pm JakeGould: @djseilab: Oh well. It is a pressing issue.
	5:18pm The Contessa: Rumer channelling Karen Carpenter?
	5:22pm djsheilab: @The Contessa This new record is getting lotsa comparisons to Karen Carpenter.
	5:24pm Neil UK: OMG.Des Dana Gillespie know she's singing about acid.
	5:28pm jerry h.: Hello all! Late again. That's what happens when you work. Can't set your own schedule.Will have to listen to this show another time. Hello djsheilab!Enjoyed last week's show ! I'm sure this one will be just as enjoyable.
	5:32pm Ken From Hyde Park: "Dream Awake" is so great...mesmerizing.
	5:36pm Neil UK: London social degree = LSD Originally by Billy Nicholls.
	5:36pm Adrian in London: Just read Pauline Oliveiros has died too.
	5:38pm MONEYBAG$: Kanye West will never die
	5:39pm Ken From Hyde Park: Wait, what? I was distracted momentarily. You're going to play some Death Cab for Cutie songs?
	5:40pm jerry h.: Sharon Jones' death was a complete shock to me. Didn't hear that she had been suffering with cancer. What a loss!
	5:41pm Scraps: When your wife dies of cancer at 51, you never treat death in the same way again. Even in America.
	5:42pm djsheilab: I'm so sorry @Scraps.
	5:43pm JakeGould: Death is a part of life but Western culture avoids it.
	5:46pm jerry h.: Verrrrrrry interesting cover art on la Femme album.
	5:48pm Scraps: Thank you, djsheilab. deselbybowen.com
	5:50pm Rob Kopp: as scratchy as it is, I love this song. Sounds like Dearest.
	5:51pm east hollywood: Thank you Sheila B! Great show again.

	6:07pm Geraldine: Hello, Great show! I like you, thought I would at some other time see Sharon Jones. On the topic of writing, I try to start the day (best time of day for me) with writing prompts. You can sign up for some online. I found a book of writing prompts at Barnes and Noble, just the handling of the book, pen in hand, helps me get inspired. Hope this helps.

	3:20pm djsheilab: @Ken from Hyde Park That sounds like the right plan on this Black Friday. Thanksgiving was delicious and family conflict-free!
	3:21pm Whooda: Thanks for the show and tell DJ Sophisticated Boom Boom Shelia.
	3:25pm Whooda: Too weird was just thinking of Rickie Lee Jones (and Tom Waits) earlier today. Was wondering what folks 50 years from now will think when they run across a TW recording.
	3:26pm djsheilab: @Whooda Glad you're enjoying!
	3:28pm listener james from westwood: Whistlin' along with Oscar and Felix! And craving a cigar-heavy poker game.
	3:30pm The Contessa: Loved The Odd Couple!
	3:31pm common: it does look like a whale.
	3:32pm P-90: Cool! A Two Teabag Show!
	3:33pm JakeGould: Hey! Hoo! Hi!
	3:35pm Whooda: Turkey is a clusterfuck, don't get me started.
	3:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: Found it! www.facebook.com... Yes, not good news for many citizens of Turkey.
	3:36pm TDK60: I agree with your brother, Sheila. That new station doesn't impress me. My subway stop looks like s**t. And they're going to raise the fares again. Not pleased. And I'm anti-Trump and anti-Erdogan.
	3:36pm Rob Kopp: The best vinyl I managed to find on the record fair 2 weeks ago was EP Canta en Espanol by Caterina Caselli. Standout track: Es la juventud (=Baby please don't go with the same backing track as her Italian version Sono qui con voi)
	3:38pm mcjhn: like this one!
	3:38pm Rob Kopp: me too
	3:41pm common: yea!
	3:43pm geezerette: bat-man!
	3:44pm JakeGould: Fascism around the world. Stinks.
	3:45pm Rob Kopp: love every version of this ongs
	3:46pm djsheilab: @Rob Kopp Agreed!
	3:46pm geezerette: Jake, how I wish you were wrong.
	3:46pm JtotheK: nice version of comin' home.
	3:46pm Whooda: RIP Florence Henderson www.youtube.com...
	3:47pm ChrisB.: Capitol's Ultra Lounge series was great. Christmas Cocktails Vol.1-3 are a must for the holidays.
	3:47pm listener james from westwood: "Money Talks"?!
	3:47pm listener james from westwood: "Money Talks"!
	3:47pm Rob Kopp: I'm still lookin' for the American single of Sylvie Vartan with this song and Whirlpool on the b-side. For me the 2 best tracks she ever did
	3:49pm andrew: florence henderson had more wesson-ality than anyone .
	3:49pm Laurie H: That weight loss song was amazing! And so true.
	3:52pm Adrian in London: @Rob Kopp Do you have the Roche Martin records? I've only heard the first EP but there are some extra tracks on a huge Veronique Sanson box set, which I'm not paying for…
	3:53pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian: No. Roche Martin is a new name for me
	3:53pm The Contessa: When we saw them play IN THE DARK we all nearly fell asleep. They were amazing!
	3:54pm Adrian in London: @Sheila My pleasure. Boom-boomers, if you ever get the chance to see Bohren play live just go; they're amazing!!
	3:54pm geezerette: Sheila B., you are brilliant.
	3:55pm djsheilab: @Adrian in London I will indeed! I also bought this CD for my dad + he adores it.
	3:55pm Adrian in London: @Rob I think you'll like them. They were Veronique Sanson's first band.Sort of like the Swingle Singers via Stereolab. (Not really but, y'know…)
	3:55pm djsheilab: @geezerette Awww...thanks! (blushes)
	3:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Aretha Franklin singing about freedom and stuff yesterday: youtu.be...
	3:56pm The Contessa: Everyone loves Sheila B's dad…
	3:58pm Rob Kopp: I found a couple of tracks of Les Roche Martin on YouTube. Here's Wanda Jackson's Whirlpool by Sylvie vartan www.youtube.com...
	3:58pm listener james from westwood: Explicitly remember buying this Shannon 45 new at the Boston Tower Records after a cover of this cut got my mom's attention as the theme song to the short-lived Michael Mann series "Crime Story" 'round about '88ish.
	3:59pm JakeGould: Keep calm, freedom and happiness in the front of your minds nowadays! And Del Shannon as well.
	4:01pm geezerette: Tip hat to Bert Williams. Ethel Waters was a genius.
	4:02pm Rob Kopp: @SheilaB: Do you know Black, brown and white blues by Big Bill Broonzy ('47)?
	4:04pm The Contessa: As I said, everyone loves Sheila B's dad
	4:05pm Carmichael: Heya Sheila. Checking in from my car.
	4:10pm listener james from westwood: That backstory'll put an interesting spin on the use of this song in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" the next time I see that scene.
	4:11pm TDK60: Let me go over and hang with Sheila's dad and his dark music and light some jazz cigarettes.
	4:12pm JtotheK: i found the joanie sommers 'why don't you do right' 45 this week! so many great versions ... still partial to Mark Murphy though.
	4:13pm Mandy: this is making me want to watch Who Framed Roger Rabbit
	4:13pm djsheilab: @JtotheK I don't know the Mark Murphy or the Joanie Sommers versions. Must dig 'em up!
	4:14pm djsheilab: @Mandy Yes! Sung so sensually by Jessica Rabbit :)
	4:15pm JakeGould: Sheila's dad will always be the guy who broke the news that the Bee Gees are men to her. Such sad. :/
	4:15pm Rob Kopp: here are some other versions: www.originals.be... I'm afraid is in Dutch, but the 5th edition of Arnold 'mister originals' Rypens book The originals is in English. It's a treat for every music lover
	4:16pm JtotheK: check out cleo jons cover...and joe loco...and fats domino...and herbie mann!
	4:17pm djsheilab: Oh wow...I could've done an entire show of "Why Don't You Do Right?" and then at the end we'd all never be able to listen to it ever again!
	4:18pm common: like ken likes to do with certain songs, djsheilab
	4:18pm JtotheK: and the nichelle nichols - didn't know that version until you mentioned it, i gotta find that 45!
	4:23pm Adrian in London: Oh, of course, it's Dom la Nena. She's lovely, again another great live show. In London she insisted the audience get up and dance. Cue the Latin Americans throwing amazing fluid moves with gay abandon while we pasty English types shuffled self-consciously.
	4:26pm Bob: Sheila, I love your show, always. There is a great version of "Why don't you do right" by Johnny Otis that came out in the 80s. The thing that makes it great is it is a duet with a man and woman yelling (singing) back and forth at each other to do right (and get me some money). I think you would really enjoy it. I do.
	4:28pm djsheilab: Thanks @Bob! I haven't heard an 80s version. I shall look it up for sure!
	4:29pm JakeGould: Nothing as magical as two people shouting at each other about money in song.
	4:30pm Summer and Michael: Great show, Sheila! And Happy Thanksgiving! We love you!
	4:30pm djsheilab: HA!! You kill me @JakeGould!
	4:37pm The Contessa: YOU'VE NEVER WATCHED STAR TREK!!!
	4:37pm Frank from Santa Cruz: My warped records fix. get two pieces of plate glass, thick like table glass. but records between and put in oven at lowest setting for like 30 minutes. works like a charm.
	4:38pm Rob Kopp: I have 7 C90-casettes with the song Summertime, and you can easily play them after each other! When there's ONE song with SO many covers in SO many styles, it's that song.
	4:39pm JakeGould: Sheila never watched "Star Trek?" Wowza!
	4:41pm djsheilab: Vinyl in the oven?!!! That sounds terrifying @Frank from Santa Cruz.
	4:42pm JtotheK: see also bobby bland 'yum yum tree', 'honey child' and 'shoes' (definitely shoes!) - a lot of great 45s...
	4:43pm Scraps deSelby: h'lo hi hm
	4:43pm listener james from westwood: 80s represent!
	4:43pm Adrian in London: Ha ha! Yes, you said you were going to play Duran Duran! Well done! applies lip gloss pouts
	4:43pm JakeGould: Save it for the morning after.
	4:46pm Rob Kopp: @Jake: That's the only Duran Duran single I have: Save a prayer
	4:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: The funniest thing ever would be to pull things out of the oven and finding two pieces of warped plate glass.
	4:48pm Scraps: I don't like Duran Duran Duran Duran, but Save a Prayer is a great song. The way it goes a bit higher on the end of the chorus/hook is amazing
	4:49pm Sem Chumbo: Wonderful Big Joe! Thanks, djsheilaB
	4:49pm JakeGould: Ahhh! I love this Big How Turner.
	4:50pm Neil UK: This predates Rocket 88. Gotta be the first rock & roll record.
	4:50pm east hollywood: "Im like a one-eyed cat...." IMHO the dirtiest line ever in a pop song
	4:52pm djsheilab: @east hollywood Seriously! Was gonna point out that lyric during my mic break. Must always highlight the naughty bits for my listeners :)
	4:53pm Neil UK: Doh! Much more recent than I thought.
	4:55pm JakeGould: Mangy stray cats are my friends. Including a few one eyed cats.
	4:57pm djsheilab: It's incredible how badly most Amy records have been pressed.
	5:02pm JakeGould: Pressing or mastering?
	5:06pm east hollywood: Hearing Sheila B blush through my speakers--- that's great radio
	5:07pm Rob Kopp: Writing is so easy. Just lock yourself up for 8 years and publish the result!
	5:09pm djsheilab: @jakeGould I've actually heard the masters and they sound fine. It's the records.
	5:14pm geezerette: "There You Are" is GREAT!!! :)
	5:15pm JakeGould: @djseilab: Oh well. It is a pressing issue.
	5:18pm The Contessa: Rumer channelling Karen Carpenter?
	5:22pm djsheilab: @The Contessa This new record is getting lotsa comparisons to Karen Carpenter.
	5:24pm Neil UK: OMG.Des Dana Gillespie know she's singing about acid.
	5:28pm jerry h.: Hello all! Late again. That's what happens when you work. Can't set your own schedule.Will have to listen to this show another time. Hello djsheilab!Enjoyed last week's show ! I'm sure this one will be just as enjoyable.

	5:36pm Neil UK: London social degree = LSD Originally by Billy Nicholls.
	5:36pm Adrian in London: Just read Pauline Oliveiros has died too.
	5:38pm MONEYBAG$: Kanye West will never die
	5:39pm Ken From Hyde Park: Wait, what? I was distracted momentarily. You're going to play some Death Cab for Cutie songs?
	5:40pm jerry h.: Sharon Jones' death was a complete shock to me. Didn't hear that she had been suffering with cancer. What a loss!
	5:41pm Scraps: When your wife dies of cancer at 51, you never treat death in the same way again. Even in America.
	5:42pm djsheilab: I'm so sorry @Scraps.
	5:43pm JakeGould: Death is a part of life but Western culture avoids it.
	5:46pm jerry h.: Verrrrrrry interesting cover art on la Femme album.
	5:48pm Scraps: Thank you, djsheilab. deselbybowen.com
	5:50pm Rob Kopp: as scratchy as it is, I love this song. Sounds like Dearest.

	6:07pm Geraldine: Hello, Great show! I like you, thought I would at some other time see Sharon Jones. On the topic of writing, I try to start the day (best time of day for me) with writing prompts. You can sign up for some online. I found a book of writing prompts at Barnes and Noble, just the handling of the book, pen in hand, helps me get inspired. Hope this helps.

	10:36pm TokyoAGoGo: Arigato, Sheila...! And another top show...
