	3:08pm βrian: Well this is fun!
	3:09pm nachurall: Sheilah you're the best!
	3:09pm chalmers: A long-lost pop music genre: the comedy record interspersing snippets of hit songs: "Hey E.T., if you want phone home, what's the number?" <clip of "867-5309">.
	3:09pm Michael 98145: whoa!
	3:11pm Carmichael: ThisArmanet sounds vaguely Bee Gee ish. Heya Sheila and boomers.
	3:12pm Adrian in London: Evening Sheila, evening all. Been listening to ambient drone all day to accompany working from home and this Juliette Armanet track is putting some sass into my, um, arse.
	3:13pm nightjeans: You're the best Sheila B
	3:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Nice album cover, Juliette, but I think that's a weave.
	3:14pm Michael 98145: only her doctor knows for sure
	3:15pm Bronwyn Bishop: Hi Sheila and everyone :)
	3:17pm βrian: Love is not a pie.
	3:18pm jerry h.: Hello djsheilab and fellow listeners. I must say that for anyone who works retail the is the LEAST wonderful time of the year! Picture framing no exception. Thankfully only 6 1/2 days left before it's over for us. Closed sunday.
	3:18pm djsheilab: Hey gang! I think that Juliette Armanet cover may be the best I've seen this year.
	3:19pm βrian: But can she swat flies?
	3:20pm Adrian in London: @Sheila Young Thug's No, My Name is Jeffery cover is pretty good. Well, it's a great dress, anyway…
	3:21pm modchick65: Love love LOVE this Lori Burton song.
	3:25pm MONEYBAG$: This reminds me of a Les Thugs song in a strange way
	3:29pm Michael 98145: warmer now ...
	3:30pm jerry h.: Could use some" Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive" vibes today. Happy to be listening to djsheilab
	3:30pm JtotheK: hello sheilaB and boom-boomers.
	3:30pm modchick65: Sheila... when I'm making mixtapes, I often find myself getting myself into a space where I know I'm going off-track and I just have to stop; otherwise, I know that I'll just have to re-do everything. Your "I"m Still Standing" story reminds me of that, although I have nothing against "I'm Still Standing." ;)
	3:30pm JakeGould: YOU SHOULD HAVE PLAYED "I'M STILL STANDING." But you didn't do I guess that's why they call it the blues. :/
	3:31pm modchick65: HAAAAAA @JakeGould
	3:32pm JasonInBoston: Looking for Trouble-The Charmers-A Stacy classic! Good girlfight record.
	3:32pm glenn: chick habit. www.youtube.com...
	3:34pm drewo: Good afternoon Sheila. Thank you for giving us the gift of great music every week. I just added a new Monkees recording to my list of favorites of 2016.
	3:36pm hortense: nice song!
	3:36pm hortense: nice song!
	3:36pm DL in LA: You might give a listen to the Glee version of "The Boy is Mine." I thought it was pretty great.
	3:40pm sugarwolf: Julie Brown's Girl Fight Tonight is surprise! a girl fight song.
	3:42pm Michael 98145: ( DJ Sheila, may i suggest someday some Mika Nakashima? )
	3:42pm djsheilab: @sugarwolf "Girl Fight Tonight" sounds fantastic! I'm on it! Thanks!!
	3:44pm Popsicle: Wow the Cote song was stunning. Def check her out
	3:45pm axlotl: I did not expect his name to be Duane.
	3:46pm djsheilab: @Popsicle + @Hortense I'm so happy you both loved the Cote song. It's really something. "London" is great too.
	3:46pm jerry h.: For twistin' AND listenin"
	3:46pm JasonInBoston: I play the lving HELL out of "Duane"! Stacy and I both have white promos of that 45. We're massive Jo Ann Campbell fans. Check out "Amateur Night" by her.
	3:47pm JtotheK: that Jo Ann Campbell was pretty great!
	3:48pm djsheilab: @JasonInBoston I've never been able to find the 45! And I don't think many people are after it either.
	3:49pm ?: That singer of Gulp sounds exactly like Eliza Gilkyson
	3:49pm Popsicle: Reminded me of a little of Mary Margaret Ohara's "Miss America" record which I think is perfect Check out "To Cry About"
	3:49pm CDToaster: Hi Sheila, re: that Chocolat song, is that the same Chocolat who performs on the Zofka album "Chocolat"? If so, what happened, did she branch off by herself and go solo or was this before she hooked up with Zofka? Which came first, her work with Zofka or her solo? love her voice! Sorry for my ignorance but I love Zofka and didn't realize he named one of his albums after her. I guess I should just do some research on my own without bothering you. Perhaps a listener knows about her and her affiliations with Zofka? Much appreciated. Happy Holidaze all!
	3:52pm Michael 98145: ( yikes, was that Thirty Years Ago ?? )
	3:58pm Adrian in London: Ah yeah, Zouzou!!
	4:00pm βrian: "Vous êtes à l'écoute de Sophisticated Boum-Boum"
	4:01pm JP from KC: Hiya, Boomers! Sheila, I can honestly say that hearing your show and your voice puts me in the highest spirits I've been in all week.
	4:03pm modchick65: Awww... I loved working Christmas retail. It was fun. Everyone was so happy and it was just really fun.
	4:04pm sugarwolf: No sleep till Christmas :(
	4:04pm glenn: never worked in retail, never worked in a bar. swear to god, i'd kill somebody.
	4:06pm βrian: Ooh, I hated waiting tables during the days before Christmas. Evenings were nice, though. You just had to get some booze in 'em.
	4:06pm modchick65: Oh, Betty. If only you knew that everyone listening would trade you a 2016 for a 1968.
	4:06pm 67tele: i thought for a second it was going to be Betty Marie Barnes from Saturday Looks Good to Me
	4:08pm jerry h.: Just wondering: @djsheilab- do you normally have a Holiday-themed playlist near xmas,etc.? Still like hearing those tunes,however. And I guess it depends where you work. I like my co-workers. Not Customers. Everybody wants a discount and I'm not the owner. Thanks for thoughts and comments@glenn,@Brian,@modchick65 !
	4:09pm JtotheK: like this Barbara Lynn!
	4:11pm sugarwolf: "Everybody wants a discount and I'm not the owner" yup!!!
	4:13pm LPCOVERLOVER: Loving the show and this mini soul set Sheila! Thanks!
	4:14pm djsheilab: Thanks @LPCOVERLOVER! Happy you're here :)
	4:15pm Rob Kopp: Dutch singer Faye Lovsky is fantastic
	4:15pm jerry h.: Everybody thinks they can get a better deal elsewhere. Show me a competitor"s prices and we'll talk then.
	4:20pm Rob Kopp: The sleeve of Fay's CD JoPo in MoNo was designed by strip-maker Joost Swarte. It has such a funny form when it's closed. Just have a look on Google and you can see what I mean
	4:22pm CDToaster: @Michael 98145, no, the Zofka album Chocolat came out in 2008. The singer on his album sounds EXACTLY like Cholocat but her name isn't mentioned on the album which is written completely in French so I can't understand anything. But I'm certain it's the same gal. No biggie, but if you liked that Chocolat track, you'd love Zofka
	4:23pm Ted: One of those great Fleetwood Mac songs that seems to never get heard anymore. Thanks Sheila...have no heard this in over 3 decades!
	4:26pm The Contessa: Going back to that horse's tail I must mention the English performance artist Rose English who did an installation called Quadrille with the dancers wearing horses' tails in 1975 if anyone wants to have a gander
	4:36pm Rob Kopp: Crazy. I hear something of Shocking Blue's Venus in it
	4:37pm CDToaster: I answered my own question by playing the Chocolat album by Zofka and it's clear I mistook the singer for the Chocolat Sheila played. They sounded similar, but not identical as I thought. Also, she's French, not Asian. Sorry for wasting your time readers.
	4:38pm Ken From Hyde Park: I thought I invented an acronym today: NARP (Not A Real Problem). There are already several definitions: Neuropathy, ataxia, and retinitis pigmentosa; an affliction of the nervous system National Association of Railroad Passengers; advocacy group for train riders Non-athletic regular person; not a jock Maybe there are some others.
	4:38pm Rob Kopp: Is that Charisma single on vinyl?
	4:39pm JP from KC: JUNIOR SENIOR!! YAAAS!!
	4:40pm jerry h.: This album came with a Parental Warning !
	4:41pm Rob Kopp: Sheila removed the warning
	4:42pm JasonInBoston: YEAH! LOTTA LOVE! Get the 12" of this! One of my all-time favorites.
	4:43pm βrian: Nah, she removed the parents.
	4:43pm djsheilab: @Rob Kopp I wish!
	4:43pm djsheilab: @Jerry H. The Junior Senior album came with a parental warning? Haha!
	4:45pm Ken From Hyde Park: This Nicolette Larson song stirs up lots of rememberies.
	4:45pm 67tele: @KFHP: you could instead use the acronym ANT (Aint No Thang)
	4:46pm Rob Kopp: I just see on the Wikipedia page of Temputa Kidz that it's a spilt single. You played Miira killer by Tempura Kidz.
	4:46pm CDToaster: After more research, I found the actual song that made me think Chocolat was the singer on a Zofka's album. Listen to "Tu Ne L'Aimes Pas" on his "Nice" album and you will hear the similarity and cause for my confusion. As Ken said, NARP. Thanks.
	4:47pm chalmers: Funiculi, Funicula!
	4:47pm djsheilab: @Robb Kopp It's definitely the both of them cos the Charisma.com girls are rapping. You can see 'em all in the video.
	4:49pm Marc15: Funiculì, Funiculà
	4:49pm Ken From Hyde Park: @76tele - Great...saves me 25% typing when I use that one!
	4:50pm 67tele: I just made it up but hey lets get it out there!
	4:52pm Michael 98145: @CDT, nope. i was hitting myself in the head because the Pretenders LP came out thirty years ago. whoa.
	4:53pm sugarwolf: Jeanette!!
	4:54pm Adrian in London: I LOVE Jeanette!!
	4:54pm Gaylord Fields: Jeanette [swoon]!!!
	4:56pm Cecile: A song by the City written by Carole King?
	4:56pm Michael 98145: nice
	4:59pm sugarwolf: Yay :) :)
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So much sophistry. So much DoomDoom. How I need now. Gimme da BoomBoom.
	5:02pm Cecile: Josh Groban
	5:03pm Adrian in London: Michael Bublé apparently, and I stress the word 'apparently', has a big house near us on a private estate. He has been spotted in the little post office near there. More updates as they come in.
	5:03pm Cecile: Josh Groban, Sia, Pentatonix, Train.
	5:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I need a cigarette after you reciting Genre names...
	5:04pm Listener Robert: I'd heard AOR was album oriented rock. But that was decades ago.
	5:04pm sugarwolf: Technically, it's not even winter yet!!
	5:04pm Whooda: Hey DJ Sophisticated Boom Boom Shelia, did you say, "Beige and khaki pants"? I resemble that remark!
	5:05pm Michael 98145: love this carol --
	5:06pm sugarwolf: I mean, meteorologically it is, but to me it's not winter until the solstice. And the SOOOOOOUUUULLLLL-stice
	5:06pm Michael 98145: 5:44 am EST Dec 21st
	5:08pm Adrian in London: @Sheila This week I took delivery of a new Moomins single on Finders Keepers – Silent Night. It's Christmassy and bonkers and lovely, all at the same time!
	5:09pm northguineahills: So, midwinter would be b/tn Groundhog's Day and President's Day?
	5:09pm Rob Kopp: Song to the siren
	5:10pm Michael 98145: thank you.
	5:11pm pinholga: Tim Buckley covers > Jeff Buckley covers
	5:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mary Wing did her thing - several versions of this - & Liz rose above all the outstanding Singers covering it.
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She got w/ Jeff anyway. Bless them all.
	5:12pm Smilty69: This Mortal Coil song was in a David Lynch film. I forget which one.
	5:13pm northguineahills: Crap, Smilty69, you're right, and I forget as well....
	5:13pm Richard: Happy Friday everyone!! Great sounds for the dinner hour hours Thanks
	5:13pm maestroso: This is some lovely music, djsheilab.
	5:14pm jerry h.: love this song!
	5:15pm modchick65: Love this Bill Pursell song.
	5:16pm Michael 98145: trying to remember "Lost Highway" ...?
	5:16pm JasonInBoston: Our Winter Love is a MASSIVE tune in Pittsburgh. All the oldies DJs still play it. Terry Lee played it quite a bit. There's a vocal version by the Lettermen too. Love that song. Got the promo.
	5:17pm modchick65: Wow! I thought this Rumer song was a version from the 70s! Awesome! I love Bacharach... my parents would listen to Reach Out on Sunday nights in front of the fireplace while I played on the floor. It could have been the cover of a K-Tel record.
	5:18pm Smilty69: @northguineahill: Google says it was Lost Highway. That wasn't the movie though. I thought it was Mulholland Drive..
	5:19pm northguineahills: ahhh, thanks Smilty69 for googifing it! Ahhh, form wickerman....
	5:20pm Brendan: What the world needs now is more cowbell. And rye whiskey
	5:20pm djsheilab: @Brendan Don't forget champagne!
	5:22pm Brendan: Yes and a comfortable pair of slacks with an elastic waist band that somehow manages to look fashionable at the same time
	5:23pm Michael 98145: From the interweb: "The version by This Mortal Coil featured on David Lynch's 1997 film Lost Highway but did not appear on the film's soundtrack album. Lynch has stated that This Mortal Coil's version of the song inspired the first two albums by Julee Cruise."
	5:23pm Rob Kopp: On one of her previous albums Rumer did a cover of the Jimmy Webb song P.F. Sloan, about a songwriter who really existed (he wrote a.o. Eve of destruction, Take me for what I'm worth, let me be). YouTube contains a live version where she's joined by P.F. Sloan himself! www.youtube.com...
	5:24pm LPCOVERLOVER: the bacharach songbook is timeless - what a pretty cover - not since dusty springfield. sheila she does a nice cover of a laura nyro song here - maybe you'll like it too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKTjP_r8PcM
	5:25pm modchick65: I've reached the point where I cringe at a Chorus pedal. It just sounds so dated. Think I'm going to sell mine. I don't even want it in the house.
	5:25pm Michael 98145: that Pale Saints LP cover is disturbing
	5:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pretty good segue for a mistake.
	5:26pm northguineahills: Yeah, not a bad Pale Saints track either...
	5:28pm sugarwolf: Claudine!!!
	5:30pm jerry h.: Claudine always nice to hear. Was she in the movie "the Party"?
	5:30pm Davis: this is great- i love her versiopn of end of the world too
	5:30pm LPCOVERLOVER: oh how nice is the claudine!
	5:30pm Davis: she was in the party
	5:33pm andrew: chorus pedals on bass guitar infected many, many cuts in the eighties. Joan Armitradings hits come to mind.
	5:35pm common: happy friday all!
	5:35pm Michael 98145: this battery-charging program always goes by too fast
	5:37pm modchick65: I really like the music of this Geowulf track.
	5:38pm modchick65: @andrew -- Yes. The Chorus pedal is all over the 80s/90s. It's so characteristic of the sound, and I loved all that music at the time. It's not even that I don't love it anymore... I just don't listen to it a lot anymore, so when I hear it -- and the chorus pedal -- it just reminds me of how long ago it was and I get depressed that I'm old. Or something. :)
	5:39pm Lee2001: I just discovered your show two hours ago while my husband was playing it. I have already downloaded five songs, lol. I like your taste, keep up the good work and thank you, thank you, thank you for posting the playlist!
	5:40pm Michael 98145: @Lee2001, you have archives of wonder to explore ...
	5:43pm Faye: I was literally JUST THINKING ABOUT ARISTOCATS! SECONDS BEFORE YOU PLAYED THIS. incredible!!! i love this song & this movie
	5:44pm JtotheK: Great version of My Babe!!!
	5:45pm Lee2001: @Michael98145 Looking forward to it! Dorothy Ashby in particular was a revelation...
	5:47pm The Contessa: My favourite sentiment… in my heart it's spring
	5:48pm LPCOVERLOVER: Doesn't this felice taylor sound like a supremes song?!
	5:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...like it because it sounds like Diana Ross - like it better because it isn't...heh..)
	5:50pm jerry h.: I was also thinking how much Mitty sounds like Miss Ross.
	5:53pm Tommy Jack Haynes: If you don't know what a shuffle is ....listen to this song
	5:54pm jerry h.: Almost 6:00. Sorry to see show end but "Yabba Dabba Do"(sliding off dinosaur crane tail)!!
	5:55pm Rob Kopp: @Sheila: I'd like to send you Arnold Rypens' book The originals. Shall I send it to WFMU?
	5:55pm northguineahills: Thanks Sheila! Enjoy the weekend!
	5:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, DJSB. Safe, warm weekends, all!
	5:56pm Michael 98145: brr, 25F in Jersey City
	5:56pm Carmichael: I love everything April and Nino do.
	5:57pm Michael 98145: wonderful again, DJ Sheila
	5:57pm The Contessa: They're still alive!! Where does the time go? Thank you Sheila for a lovely evening here in winter-y London. Happy weekend @Ken
	5:57pm Adrian in London: HELLO!! And goodbye! sob Lovely show again Sheila. xx
	5:58pm Rob Kopp: Thanks again Sheila
	5:58pm jerry h.: Thanks so very much djsheilab! Happy weekend everyone!
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Was a big round 0F in NewHampshuh earlier. Thx DJSB !
	6:02pm Tim in VT: Trim dat loop
	11:22am SeanG: this cover of Lotta Love is the BEST
	2:56pm Van in DC: Said: Listener Robert: I'd heard AOR was album oriented rock. But that was decades ago. YUP! AOR was Album-Oriented Rock!! It was the awesomest stuff on the local radio you could get!!
	2:58pm Van in DC: Did a quick drive by to hear This Mortal Coil's "Song to the Siren". Thank you for playing it. Liz Fraser....just. Wow. One of the most gorgeousest voices in like, ever.
	2:59pm Van in DC: BTW - is that the deceased former wrestler "Chyna" on Runer's cover? Wow, sure kind of resembles her if not!
	10:32am X. Sample: Looking up SAMPLED RECORDS last night it seems the genre was launched but a month earlier than your show-opening Audrey's "DEAR ELVIS" from August 1956, inspired by Buchanan and Goodman's July 1956 genre originator, "The Flying Saucer." Yes, the same Dickie Goodman who oversaturated 1970's radio with these nuisances. Unfortunately for capitulating "DEAR ELVIS" which destroyed unsold copies in September 1956 to settle, in November 1956 battling Buchanan and Goodman won "THE FLYING SAUCER" lawsuit, opening the door for sampling !

	3:06pm Rob Kopp: Hello everyone
	3:08pm βrian: Well this is fun!
	3:09pm nachurall: Sheilah you're the best!
	3:09pm chalmers: A long-lost pop music genre: the comedy record interspersing snippets of hit songs: "Hey E.T., if you want phone home, what's the number?" <clip of "867-5309">.
	3:09pm Michael 98145: whoa!
	3:11pm Carmichael: ThisArmanet sounds vaguely Bee Gee ish. Heya Sheila and boomers.
	3:12pm Adrian in London: Evening Sheila, evening all. Been listening to ambient drone all day to accompany working from home and this Juliette Armanet track is putting some sass into my, um, arse.
	3:13pm nightjeans: You're the best Sheila B
	3:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Nice album cover, Juliette, but I think that's a weave.
	3:14pm Michael 98145: only her doctor knows for sure
	3:15pm Bronwyn Bishop: Hi Sheila and everyone :)
	3:17pm βrian: Love is not a pie.
	3:18pm jerry h.: Hello djsheilab and fellow listeners. I must say that for anyone who works retail the is the LEAST wonderful time of the year! Picture framing no exception. Thankfully only 6 1/2 days left before it's over for us. Closed sunday.
	3:18pm djsheilab: Hey gang! I think that Juliette Armanet cover may be the best I've seen this year.
	3:19pm βrian: But can she swat flies?
	3:20pm Adrian in London: @Sheila Young Thug's No, My Name is Jeffery cover is pretty good. Well, it's a great dress, anyway…
	3:21pm modchick65: Love love LOVE this Lori Burton song.
	3:25pm MONEYBAG$: This reminds me of a Les Thugs song in a strange way
	3:29pm Michael 98145: warmer now ...
	3:30pm jerry h.: Could use some" Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive" vibes today. Happy to be listening to djsheilab
	3:30pm JtotheK: hello sheilaB and boom-boomers.
	3:30pm modchick65: Sheila... when I'm making mixtapes, I often find myself getting myself into a space where I know I'm going off-track and I just have to stop; otherwise, I know that I'll just have to re-do everything. Your "I"m Still Standing" story reminds me of that, although I have nothing against "I'm Still Standing." ;)
	3:30pm JakeGould: YOU SHOULD HAVE PLAYED "I'M STILL STANDING." But you didn't do I guess that's why they call it the blues. :/
	3:31pm modchick65: HAAAAAA @JakeGould
	3:32pm JasonInBoston: Looking for Trouble-The Charmers-A Stacy classic! Good girlfight record.
	3:32pm glenn: chick habit. www.youtube.com...
	3:34pm drewo: Good afternoon Sheila. Thank you for giving us the gift of great music every week. I just added a new Monkees recording to my list of favorites of 2016.
	3:36pm hortense: nice song!
	3:36pm hortense: nice song!
	3:36pm DL in LA: You might give a listen to the Glee version of "The Boy is Mine." I thought it was pretty great.
	3:40pm sugarwolf: Julie Brown's Girl Fight Tonight is surprise! a girl fight song.
	3:42pm Michael 98145: ( DJ Sheila, may i suggest someday some Mika Nakashima? )
	3:42pm djsheilab: @sugarwolf "Girl Fight Tonight" sounds fantastic! I'm on it! Thanks!!
	3:44pm Popsicle: Wow the Cote song was stunning. Def check her out
	3:45pm axlotl: I did not expect his name to be Duane.
	3:46pm djsheilab: @Popsicle + @Hortense I'm so happy you both loved the Cote song. It's really something. "London" is great too.
	3:46pm jerry h.: For twistin' AND listenin"
	3:46pm JasonInBoston: I play the lving HELL out of "Duane"! Stacy and I both have white promos of that 45. We're massive Jo Ann Campbell fans. Check out "Amateur Night" by her.
	3:47pm JtotheK: that Jo Ann Campbell was pretty great!
	3:48pm djsheilab: @JasonInBoston I've never been able to find the 45! And I don't think many people are after it either.
	3:49pm ?: That singer of Gulp sounds exactly like Eliza Gilkyson
	3:49pm Popsicle: Reminded me of a little of Mary Margaret Ohara's "Miss America" record which I think is perfect Check out "To Cry About"
	3:49pm CDToaster: Hi Sheila, re: that Chocolat song, is that the same Chocolat who performs on the Zofka album "Chocolat"? If so, what happened, did she branch off by herself and go solo or was this before she hooked up with Zofka? Which came first, her work with Zofka or her solo? love her voice! Sorry for my ignorance but I love Zofka and didn't realize he named one of his albums after her. I guess I should just do some research on my own without bothering you. Perhaps a listener knows about her and her affiliations with Zofka? Much appreciated. Happy Holidaze all!
	3:52pm Michael 98145: ( yikes, was that Thirty Years Ago ?? )
	3:58pm Adrian in London: Ah yeah, Zouzou!!
	4:00pm βrian: "Vous êtes à l'écoute de Sophisticated Boum-Boum"
	4:01pm JP from KC: Hiya, Boomers! Sheila, I can honestly say that hearing your show and your voice puts me in the highest spirits I've been in all week.
	4:03pm modchick65: Awww... I loved working Christmas retail. It was fun. Everyone was so happy and it was just really fun.
	4:04pm sugarwolf: No sleep till Christmas :(
	4:04pm glenn: never worked in retail, never worked in a bar. swear to god, i'd kill somebody.
	4:06pm βrian: Ooh, I hated waiting tables during the days before Christmas. Evenings were nice, though. You just had to get some booze in 'em.
	4:06pm modchick65: Oh, Betty. If only you knew that everyone listening would trade you a 2016 for a 1968.
	4:06pm 67tele: i thought for a second it was going to be Betty Marie Barnes from Saturday Looks Good to Me
	4:08pm jerry h.: Just wondering: @djsheilab- do you normally have a Holiday-themed playlist near xmas,etc.? Still like hearing those tunes,however. And I guess it depends where you work. I like my co-workers. Not Customers. Everybody wants a discount and I'm not the owner. Thanks for thoughts and comments@glenn,@Brian,@modchick65 !
	4:09pm JtotheK: like this Barbara Lynn!
	4:11pm sugarwolf: "Everybody wants a discount and I'm not the owner" yup!!!
	4:13pm LPCOVERLOVER: Loving the show and this mini soul set Sheila! Thanks!
	4:14pm djsheilab: Thanks @LPCOVERLOVER! Happy you're here :)
	4:15pm Rob Kopp: Dutch singer Faye Lovsky is fantastic
	4:15pm jerry h.: Everybody thinks they can get a better deal elsewhere. Show me a competitor"s prices and we'll talk then.
	4:20pm Rob Kopp: The sleeve of Fay's CD JoPo in MoNo was designed by strip-maker Joost Swarte. It has such a funny form when it's closed. Just have a look on Google and you can see what I mean
	4:22pm CDToaster: @Michael 98145, no, the Zofka album Chocolat came out in 2008. The singer on his album sounds EXACTLY like Cholocat but her name isn't mentioned on the album which is written completely in French so I can't understand anything. But I'm certain it's the same gal. No biggie, but if you liked that Chocolat track, you'd love Zofka
	4:23pm Ted: One of those great Fleetwood Mac songs that seems to never get heard anymore. Thanks Sheila...have no heard this in over 3 decades!
	4:26pm The Contessa: Going back to that horse's tail I must mention the English performance artist Rose English who did an installation called Quadrille with the dancers wearing horses' tails in 1975 if anyone wants to have a gander
	4:36pm Rob Kopp: Crazy. I hear something of Shocking Blue's Venus in it
	4:37pm CDToaster: I answered my own question by playing the Chocolat album by Zofka and it's clear I mistook the singer for the Chocolat Sheila played. They sounded similar, but not identical as I thought. Also, she's French, not Asian. Sorry for wasting your time readers.
	4:38pm Ken From Hyde Park: I thought I invented an acronym today: NARP (Not A Real Problem). There are already several definitions: Neuropathy, ataxia, and retinitis pigmentosa; an affliction of the nervous system National Association of Railroad Passengers; advocacy group for train riders Non-athletic regular person; not a jock Maybe there are some others.
	4:38pm Rob Kopp: Is that Charisma single on vinyl?
	4:39pm JP from KC: JUNIOR SENIOR!! YAAAS!!
	4:40pm jerry h.: This album came with a Parental Warning !
	4:41pm Rob Kopp: Sheila removed the warning
	4:42pm JasonInBoston: YEAH! LOTTA LOVE! Get the 12" of this! One of my all-time favorites.
	4:43pm βrian: Nah, she removed the parents.
	4:43pm djsheilab: @Rob Kopp I wish!
	4:43pm djsheilab: @Jerry H. The Junior Senior album came with a parental warning? Haha!
	4:45pm Ken From Hyde Park: This Nicolette Larson song stirs up lots of rememberies.
	4:45pm 67tele: @KFHP: you could instead use the acronym ANT (Aint No Thang)
	4:46pm Rob Kopp: I just see on the Wikipedia page of Temputa Kidz that it's a spilt single. You played Miira killer by Tempura Kidz.
	4:46pm CDToaster: After more research, I found the actual song that made me think Chocolat was the singer on a Zofka's album. Listen to "Tu Ne L'Aimes Pas" on his "Nice" album and you will hear the similarity and cause for my confusion. As Ken said, NARP. Thanks.
	4:47pm chalmers: Funiculi, Funicula!
	4:47pm djsheilab: @Robb Kopp It's definitely the both of them cos the Charisma.com girls are rapping. You can see 'em all in the video.
	4:49pm Marc15: Funiculì, Funiculà
	4:49pm Ken From Hyde Park: @76tele - Great...saves me 25% typing when I use that one!
	4:50pm 67tele: I just made it up but hey lets get it out there!
	4:52pm Michael 98145: @CDT, nope. i was hitting myself in the head because the Pretenders LP came out thirty years ago. whoa.
	4:53pm sugarwolf: Jeanette!!
	4:54pm Adrian in London: I LOVE Jeanette!!
	4:54pm Gaylord Fields: Jeanette [swoon]!!!
	4:56pm Cecile: A song by the City written by Carole King?
	4:56pm Michael 98145: nice
	4:59pm sugarwolf: Yay :) :)
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So much sophistry. So much DoomDoom. How I need now. Gimme da BoomBoom.
	5:02pm Cecile: Josh Groban
	5:03pm Adrian in London: Michael Bublé apparently, and I stress the word 'apparently', has a big house near us on a private estate. He has been spotted in the little post office near there. More updates as they come in.
	5:03pm Cecile: Josh Groban, Sia, Pentatonix, Train.
	5:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I need a cigarette after you reciting Genre names...
	5:04pm Listener Robert: I'd heard AOR was album oriented rock. But that was decades ago.
	5:04pm sugarwolf: Technically, it's not even winter yet!!
	5:04pm Whooda: Hey DJ Sophisticated Boom Boom Shelia, did you say, "Beige and khaki pants"? I resemble that remark!
	5:05pm Michael 98145: love this carol --
	5:06pm sugarwolf: I mean, meteorologically it is, but to me it's not winter until the solstice. And the SOOOOOOUUUULLLLL-stice
	5:06pm Michael 98145: 5:44 am EST Dec 21st
	5:08pm Adrian in London: @Sheila This week I took delivery of a new Moomins single on Finders Keepers – Silent Night. It's Christmassy and bonkers and lovely, all at the same time!
	5:09pm northguineahills: So, midwinter would be b/tn Groundhog's Day and President's Day?
	5:09pm Rob Kopp: Song to the siren
	5:10pm Michael 98145: thank you.
	5:11pm pinholga: Tim Buckley covers > Jeff Buckley covers
	5:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mary Wing did her thing - several versions of this - & Liz rose above all the outstanding Singers covering it.
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She got w/ Jeff anyway. Bless them all.
	5:12pm Smilty69: This Mortal Coil song was in a David Lynch film. I forget which one.
	5:13pm northguineahills: Crap, Smilty69, you're right, and I forget as well....
	5:13pm Richard: Happy Friday everyone!! Great sounds for the dinner hour hours Thanks
	5:13pm maestroso: This is some lovely music, djsheilab.
	5:14pm jerry h.: love this song!
	5:15pm modchick65: Love this Bill Pursell song.
	5:16pm Michael 98145: trying to remember "Lost Highway" ...?
	5:16pm JasonInBoston: Our Winter Love is a MASSIVE tune in Pittsburgh. All the oldies DJs still play it. Terry Lee played it quite a bit. There's a vocal version by the Lettermen too. Love that song. Got the promo.
	5:17pm modchick65: Wow! I thought this Rumer song was a version from the 70s! Awesome! I love Bacharach... my parents would listen to Reach Out on Sunday nights in front of the fireplace while I played on the floor. It could have been the cover of a K-Tel record.
	5:18pm Smilty69: @northguineahill: Google says it was Lost Highway. That wasn't the movie though. I thought it was Mulholland Drive..
	5:19pm northguineahills: ahhh, thanks Smilty69 for googifing it! Ahhh, form wickerman....
	5:20pm Brendan: What the world needs now is more cowbell. And rye whiskey
	5:20pm djsheilab: @Brendan Don't forget champagne!
	5:22pm Brendan: Yes and a comfortable pair of slacks with an elastic waist band that somehow manages to look fashionable at the same time
	5:23pm Michael 98145: From the interweb: "The version by This Mortal Coil featured on David Lynch's 1997 film Lost Highway but did not appear on the film's soundtrack album. Lynch has stated that This Mortal Coil's version of the song inspired the first two albums by Julee Cruise."
	5:23pm Rob Kopp: On one of her previous albums Rumer did a cover of the Jimmy Webb song P.F. Sloan, about a songwriter who really existed (he wrote a.o. Eve of destruction, Take me for what I'm worth, let me be). YouTube contains a live version where she's joined by P.F. Sloan himself! www.youtube.com...
	5:24pm LPCOVERLOVER: the bacharach songbook is timeless - what a pretty cover - not since dusty springfield. sheila she does a nice cover of a laura nyro song here - maybe you'll like it too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKTjP_r8PcM
	5:25pm modchick65: I've reached the point where I cringe at a Chorus pedal. It just sounds so dated. Think I'm going to sell mine. I don't even want it in the house.
	5:25pm Michael 98145: that Pale Saints LP cover is disturbing
	5:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pretty good segue for a mistake.
	5:26pm northguineahills: Yeah, not a bad Pale Saints track either...
	5:28pm sugarwolf: Claudine!!!
	5:30pm jerry h.: Claudine always nice to hear. Was she in the movie "the Party"?
	5:30pm Davis: this is great- i love her versiopn of end of the world too
	5:30pm LPCOVERLOVER: oh how nice is the claudine!
	5:30pm Davis: she was in the party
	5:33pm andrew: chorus pedals on bass guitar infected many, many cuts in the eighties. Joan Armitradings hits come to mind.
	5:35pm common: happy friday all!
	5:35pm Michael 98145: this battery-charging program always goes by too fast
	5:37pm modchick65: I really like the music of this Geowulf track.
	5:38pm modchick65: @andrew -- Yes. The Chorus pedal is all over the 80s/90s. It's so characteristic of the sound, and I loved all that music at the time. It's not even that I don't love it anymore... I just don't listen to it a lot anymore, so when I hear it -- and the chorus pedal -- it just reminds me of how long ago it was and I get depressed that I'm old. Or something. :)
	5:39pm Lee2001: I just discovered your show two hours ago while my husband was playing it. I have already downloaded five songs, lol. I like your taste, keep up the good work and thank you, thank you, thank you for posting the playlist!
	5:40pm Michael 98145: @Lee2001, you have archives of wonder to explore ...
	5:43pm Faye: I was literally JUST THINKING ABOUT ARISTOCATS! SECONDS BEFORE YOU PLAYED THIS. incredible!!! i love this song & this movie
	5:44pm JtotheK: Great version of My Babe!!!
	5:45pm Lee2001: @Michael98145 Looking forward to it! Dorothy Ashby in particular was a revelation...
	5:47pm The Contessa: My favourite sentiment… in my heart it's spring
	5:48pm LPCOVERLOVER: Doesn't this felice taylor sound like a supremes song?!
	5:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...like it because it sounds like Diana Ross - like it better because it isn't...heh..)
	5:50pm jerry h.: I was also thinking how much Mitty sounds like Miss Ross.
	5:53pm Tommy Jack Haynes: If you don't know what a shuffle is ....listen to this song
	5:54pm jerry h.: Almost 6:00. Sorry to see show end but "Yabba Dabba Do"(sliding off dinosaur crane tail)!!
	5:55pm Rob Kopp: @Sheila: I'd like to send you Arnold Rypens' book The originals. Shall I send it to WFMU?
	5:55pm northguineahills: Thanks Sheila! Enjoy the weekend!
	5:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, DJSB. Safe, warm weekends, all!
	5:56pm Michael 98145: brr, 25F in Jersey City
	5:56pm Carmichael: I love everything April and Nino do.
	5:57pm Michael 98145: wonderful again, DJ Sheila
	5:57pm The Contessa: They're still alive!! Where does the time go? Thank you Sheila for a lovely evening here in winter-y London. Happy weekend @Ken
	5:57pm Adrian in London: HELLO!! And goodbye! sob Lovely show again Sheila. xx
	5:58pm Rob Kopp: Thanks again Sheila
	5:58pm jerry h.: Thanks so very much djsheilab! Happy weekend everyone!
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Was a big round 0F in NewHampshuh earlier. Thx DJSB !
	6:02pm Tim in VT: Trim dat loop
	11:22am SeanG: this cover of Lotta Love is the BEST
	2:56pm Van in DC: Said: Listener Robert: I'd heard AOR was album oriented rock. But that was decades ago. YUP! AOR was Album-Oriented Rock!! It was the awesomest stuff on the local radio you could get!!
	2:58pm Van in DC: Did a quick drive by to hear This Mortal Coil's "Song to the Siren". Thank you for playing it. Liz Fraser....just. Wow. One of the most gorgeousest voices in like, ever.
	2:59pm Van in DC: BTW - is that the deceased former wrestler "Chyna" on Runer's cover? Wow, sure kind of resembles her if not!
	10:32am X. Sample: Looking up SAMPLED RECORDS last night it seems the genre was launched but a month earlier than your show-opening Audrey's "DEAR ELVIS" from August 1956, inspired by Buchanan and Goodman's July 1956 genre originator, "The Flying Saucer." Yes, the same Dickie Goodman who oversaturated 1970's radio with these nuisances. Unfortunately for capitulating "DEAR ELVIS" which destroyed unsold copies in September 1956 to settle, in November 1956 battling Buchanan and Goodman won "THE FLYING SAUCER" lawsuit, opening the door for sampling !
