	3:16pm Adrian in London: Thank God for the playlist. I keep hearing great pop songs on bad UK radio stations and they NEVER back-announce the tracks. So I have to keep Googling random lyrics like "Ooh baby" etc. Feel my pain, listeners, feel my pain.

	3:32pm Cooh John: Welcome back djsheilab.
	3:33pm βrian: And now they'll lose their EU status, too, no?
	3:33pm farmer pete: Well, Sheila, at least New Jersey's a lovely place.
	3:33pm Michael 98145: we have CHECKS and balances. so far.
	3:34pm carol d: Stand by you and all immigrants 100%!
	3:34pm BlahBadyBlah: Sorry to hear you're inconvenienced. But only a bit. As Iran is a state sponsor of terrorism they really can't be trusted.
	3:35pm farmer pete: Wow, comments board birthday shout-out... That's like getting knighted in vinyl armor.
	3:35pm Adrian in London: Oh, happy birthday Contessa! ;-)
	3:36pm Michael 98145: yes, indeed!
	3:36pm Tom: During World War II president Roosevelt banned Jewish refuges from entering into USA. How'd that work out? Oh.
	3:36pm Mandy: HB Contessa, mine was yesterday!
	3:37pm The Contessa: Yes, indeed, thank you @djsheilab!!
	3:37pm P-90: Buon compleanno mio caro Contessa!

	3:38pm The Contessa: Ooh @Mandy, sorry we missed yours! We have a friend who shares yours
	3:38pm P-90: Ooops: "...la mia Contessa...!"
	3:39pm Mandy: I know at least one person that has a birthday february 1st to the 16th. IDK why Feb is a popular bday time.
	3:39pm The Contessa: Thanks @P-90, how did you know I'm learning Italian?
	3:39pm P-90: Or " la mia cara Contessa." But you get the idea...
	3:40pm JakeGould: I'm actually trying to only talk about good things but then the "cray" pops up and I can't even. For the first time in my life I truly and consistently can't even some days.
	3:41pm The Contessa: You're a doll, Sheila, lovely track, thanks xxx
	3:42pm farmer pete: This song's amazing.
	3:45pm P-90: Pure Doo-Wop Heaven
	3:45pm dale: time life compilation - oh my!
	3:47pm djsheilab: @dale Serious collectors items!
	3:47pm listener james from westwood: The 9th ruling against the EO was one of the few bright spots since 3 weeks ago. Aghast at both the sheer unforced error nature of it and the willful ignorance of how it affects millions of folks. Hoping for more similar bright spots for his remaining couple of years. (Witness the Chaffetz town hall where folks in UT were Not. having. it.)
	3:48pm LPCOVERLOVER: Laura Nyro does a great cover of Deserie with Labelle! Produced by Gamble and Huff!
	3:49pm Adrian in London: @James I've seen the teacher giving out at the Chaffetz town hall thingy but who was on stage? Who was she talking to?
	3:50pm dale: probably one of the only reissues of that charts song - the good folks at time life did a fine thing.
	3:51pm Michael 98145: Town Hall: www.washingtonpost.com...
	3:53pm Anonymous Coward: Except for the chorus/bridge,this "8 Day's" is a completely different song.
	3:54pm modchick65: I love songs about Beatles. If I were to start deep collecting, that would probably be my thing.
	3:55pm terribilia: best music to clean out my closet to, thanks sheila :-}
	3:57pm djsheilab: @terribilia I think quite a few people clean to my show :)
	3:59pm Anonymous Coward: Brilliant Green...?
	4:00pm Anonymous Coward: Knew it, she has a distinctive style for a J-POP artist
	4:00pm Michael 98145: yes, love them
	4:00pm BlahBadyBlah: The 9th is a judicial joke. Most over ruled court in the country
	4:03pm TehBadDr: One can never have too many records, unless you lack a turntable. Like I do at the moment. 8 ^ (
	4:04pm farmer pete: Not a girl, a woman!
	4:04pm brendanswfmuaccount: That Amber Arcades song is great. According to wikipedia, she was a lawyer for the UN before doing the singer/songwriter thing fulltime.
	4:06pm Clïff in Prägůe: Mandy - February is about 9 months after late spring/early summer, that'd be my guess
	4:06pm P-90: Brain Pickings! Maria Popova! I've been a loyal addict for years!
	4:07pm Michael 98145: keyword : humane
	4:08pm Sem Chumbo: Heard the boom boom from far off. Hiya, djsheliaB, and the sophistiqué. That would be you, for one, @P-90.
	4:08pm modchick65: This is a great point. I've been do freaking depressed.
	4:09pm Mandy: I was actually wondering how media will change during this time. Last 8 years the idea of "zombies, anarchy and dystopia" was pretty big theme in films, tv, and games. I wonder what the big zeitgeist in media will be.
	4:09pm ilovenon: agreed! love and unity from London U.K.
	4:09pm BK from BK: Thank you !!!!
	4:10pm modchick65: so
	4:10pm BlahBadyBlah: I think I've had enough liberal whining for the day. Time to youtube
	4:11pm TehBadDr: Hey! What's all this political stuff? The small minded tyrant is the duly elected head of our state! He's already making 'Merika grate again, just like he promised!
	4:11pm P-90: Check it out yo: https://www.brainpickings.org Highly reccommended, made with love and care, and you can have it delivered to your inbox weekly FOR FREE. Or donate if the spirit takes you...
	4:12pm ChrisB.: This gets a lot of spins here at Christmas.
	4:12pm Michael 98145: the rise of the Orc { like an out-of-mine experience, riding and watching a slow motion train wreck driven by The Joker }
	4:13pm Michael 98145: out-of-mind :(
	4:13pm TehBadDr: P-90, is that yours?
	4:13pm dale: i wonder if claudine ever sang bang bang i shot my baby.
	4:13pm Brendan: Well, as soon as we get ourselves cleaned up and we get a little smellum in our hair, why, we're gonna feel 100% better about ourselves and about life in general.
	4:15pm dale: wow - google says she released bang bang my baby shot me down
	4:15pm TehBadDr: Smellum? I hardly knew 'em!
	4:15pm P-90: Greetings up in The Great North, @Sem!
	4:15pm Cecile: yeeesh, that's a little on the nose.
	4:15pm djsheilab: @dale WOAH!
	4:20pm listener james from westwood: @Michael 98145: If I read right, Chaffetz himself. Last dragging I saw like that they caught a million pounds of fish.
	4:20pm listener james from westwood: @Mandy: Zombies still have some life in them, no pun intended; I'm copyediting a humor book about zombies right now!
	4:22pm dale: this version of respect is hilarious! lots of references to a claudine version that says it was pulled, but not one audio file? here's a nice french version by another sheila to warm you sheila b www.youtube.com...
	4:23pm Michael 98145: anyone else remember the series, Millennium ? i was hooked on that back in the last century.
	4:23pm farmer pete: James? You're a copy editor and you found work? Sacre bleu!
	4:23pm Adrian in London: Was that Deborah and the Puerto Ricans track anything to do with The Flying Lizards? Wasn't their singer called Deborah? To Google…
	4:24pm alan from sacto: this set is the bomb-omb
	4:25pm djsheilab: Thanks @Alan from Sacto!
	4:25pm Adrian in London: Oh, Google, she say yes…
	4:25pm Carmichael: Hey Alan, I'm in Carmichael.
	4:26pm listener james from westwood: @Michael: I do indeed. Lance Henriksen, right?
	4:26pm listener james from westwood: @farmer pete: I have indeed! Also a proofreader.
	4:27pm alan from sacto: Hey Carmichael, I'm in River Park, working in Rancho C now. Love djS
	4:28pm Carmichael: I see in my absence I fortunately missed some troll. Yay for me. @alan, I think we spoke before. I am working in Rancho also, Bradshaw/Goethe area.
	4:29pm Michael 98145: @James, yup.
	4:29pm ledzeppelinsucks: rain stopped in San Francisco the sidewalks are clean and the beach is biohazard
	4:29pm chris: hi, djsheilab and boom boomers! beautiful friday out here in ncal, ain't it, @Carm and @alan?
	4:29pm nightjeans: Sheila B have you ever seen the 1971 french film Don't Deliver Us from Evil?
	4:30pm Michael 98145: [ oh, my, jean ... ]
	4:31pm Carmichael: @chris, the sun is out for the first time in a long time.
	4:33pm alan from sacto: chris and Carmichael Tis a beautiful day after rain rain rain. perfect music for this after
	4:35pm Adrian in London: Ah, this set is gorgeous! Loved the Martinez track and this EPDM is just lovely.
	4:36pm SeanG: love all the swedish chanteuses
	4:38pm The Contessa: So lovely, this one
	4:38pm postmanpaul: Hello world, sounding very kinda well received here in the UK too. Nothing wrong with being very spoilt so early in the
	4:39pm Gaylord Fields: Russ!!!
	4:39pm annie: pmpaul!!! good to see you!
	4:40pm postmanpaul: annie!!! hey, and you too fine lady.
	4:41pm Carmichael: Paul! Haven't heard from you in a while. How's the postal system these days??
	4:42pm postmanpaul: Hi Carm, laying low, only posting comments! nice to see you.
	4:43pm dale: rant liberal or otherwise all you want - it's your show!
	4:43pm Michael 98145: [ sorry .. so it begins : www.washingtonpost.com... ]
	4:44pm Uncle Michael: Spring break, 1975: I arrived in Aspen the day Claudine shot Spider. No, he was not skiing at the time.
	4:44pm -Ken: Claudine Longet shot Spider Sabich to death in the bathtub of their Aspen Colorado love nest.
	4:44pm farmer pete: That's smart. The bathtub will collect most of the blood.
	4:44pm Sem Chumbo: Spider Sabich died as a result of misdemeanor negligent homicide, i.e. "I didn't know the gun was loaded."
	4:45pm -Ken: And considering the mess that Spider usually left behind, no jury was able to convict her.
	4:46pm Uncle Michael: By the time we got into town, it was a topic of conversation literally every single place one would go.
	4:47pm Carmichael: So yes, Deborah was indeed the Flying Lizards singer, "The Puerto Ricans" was actually one guy named Dennis Bovell, who produced Linton Kwesi's music. Nice catch, Adrian!
	4:49pm Michael 98145: the WFMU Accu-Mind comes thru again!
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Claudine wigkey: en.wikipedia.org... ...& a Stones song!...
	4:50pm still b/p: They didn't bother to turn the creative/sound dial much of a click's difference from My Boy Lollipop to Oh, Henry did they?
	4:51pm dale: maybe all the web references to her singing that song are just false legend - not one copy exists to stick on the youtube?
	4:53pm The Contessa: Glass!! Such a treat on my birthday!
	4:53pm The Contessa: And Jess and Scott are the loveliest people…
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if Spider had been armed w/ automatic weapons, we could've prevented this interesting convo between Liberal whiners...
	4:58pm TehBadDr: This reminds me of a strange after hours place in AUS.
	5:00pm dale: she was actually convicted of negligent homicide and given 30 days in jail. she got to pick the 30 days and just went in on weekends. she then went on vacation with her lawyer who was married at the time and she married him after his divorce.
	5:03pm Carmichael: Here you go, Dale: "Longet has never performed again after the criminal trial, and the Sabich family initiated civil proceedings to sue Longet. The case was eventually settled out of court for a large monetary settlement, with the proviso that Longet never tell or write about her story. They also demanded that Claudine withdraw from public circulation her recording of "Bang Bang, My Baby Shot Me Down."
	5:03pm common: good friday sheila and all.
	5:05pm brendanswfmuaccount: Wow, nice find Carmichael.
	5:06pm JasonInBoston: Haha! Jerry Ross wrote that! Yo Philadelphia is HIS CD!
	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's no 'Angel Baby'.
	5:06pm alan from sacto: Son of a sabich!
	5:07pm farmer pete: Aspen is no picnic. It's like the Clearwater of the Rockies.
	5:07pm Uncle Michael: pronounced SA-bitch.
	5:07pm Anonymous Coward: The skiing down the mountain thing, re Claudine, was an SNL sketch...
	5:07pm farmer pete: Sheila, it's your liberalism, with your voice, that I love.
	5:08pm Christine: Morning, all! At least I'm awake for part of the show... and for one of my fave topics, the Longet murder. I believe Sabich was not in the bath, but standing at the sink.
	5:08pm P-90: The false impression that Spider Sabich was actually shot while skiing may have begun with a Saturday Night Live sketch that appeared shortly after the murder.
	5:08pm farmer pete: Isn't that how Sonny Bono died? There's actually a touching little memorial to him in NW D.C.
	5:09pm Carmichael: And ironically, the song's writer Sonny Bono died on the ski slopes.
	5:09pm Parq: This Longet thing may be one of those things where fiction has become remembered as fact. The first installment of SNL include a bit called the "Claudine Longet Downhill Invitational" in which stock footage of skiers beefing was melded with gunshot Foley cues to suggest that each contestant was being gunned down in mid-schuss. I strongly suspect that's why so many people "remember" that Spider departed this world in that manner.
	5:09pm Uncle Michael: But not from a gunshot wound.
	5:10pm Parq: Sorry P-90, you beat me to it.
	5:10pm farmer pete: Sonny wasn't shot. Just a bad wipeout. His wife (Mary, not Cher) took over his congressional seat.
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I bet Hunter Thompson in Aspen was behind it all.
	5:11pm Carmichael: This sounds like early Osmond Brothers ...
	5:11pm Uncle Michael: By '75 Hunter rarely came into town from woody Creek.
	5:12pm JtotheK: Chiming in a bit late, but thumbs up to the Millie Small, Marion Ryan tunes!
	5:12pm Carmichael: The Jerome was likely the ONLY place he ever went in town.
	5:12pm Parq: And Cher, making an unannounced appearance, took over the memorial, much to the consternation of Sonny's family.
	5:13pm Christine: The Longet trial was quite weird... the jurors seemed to fall for her beauty and gentle manner and thus not think her capable of the crime she committed. I read some newspaper reports from the time, and there was this attitude that she was being treated unfairly because of being a celebrity - when her fame and money completely privileged her here.
	5:16pm northguineahills: Stereolab happy face!
	5:16pm Uncle Michael: Carmichael is right.
	5:16pm Carmichael: STEREOLAB!!!!!
	5:16pm Michael 98145: there is a bust of Sonny in the Palm Springs Airport : www.ci.palm-springs.ca.us...
	5:17pm farmer pete: Cher did say some very nice things, but she couldn't resist being Cher.
	5:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wull who could blame him all those skiers being shot...
	5:17pm still b/p: Going from link to link that started with Sheila B. info, seconds ago I encountered a Greg Allman and Cher album cover (Allman and Woman, oy) on which someone added a cartoon word balloon so Greg's saying, "Fuck you, Sonny Bono."
	5:18pm Carmichael: @Uncle Michael, I don't think that phrase has ever been uttered before ....
	5:18pm Adrian in London: Here's the transcript of the SNL Claudine Longer sketch with Chevy Chase and Jane Curtin snltranscripts.jt.org... "Uh-oh! Uh-oh! It looks to me like he's been accidentally shot by Claudine Longet!"
	5:18pm farmer pete: That wasn't very nice.
	5:18pm chalmers: Cher really did dominate Sonny's funeral in a melodramatic way just a few years after she was mocking him in a Beavis and Butthead video.
	5:18pm dgg: i am stupid for never listening to stereolab huh
	5:19pm Gaylord Fields: Stereolab: Socialism you can dance to! This analog synth kills fascists.
	5:21pm Michael 98145: cuteness
	5:21pm northguineahills: Nice one Gaylord!
	5:21pm Carmichael: This music is making me happy.
	5:22pm Michael 98145: oh, my, Judy Carne
	5:23pm djsheilab: @Carmichael The most important goal for my show! Thanks for saying that :)
	5:23pm Parq: It's not how over the top Cher was, so much as the fact that she made no mention of her intending to show up to anyone who might be interested, like, say, the family that had organized the memorial.
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A bittuv awlright.
	5:23pm dgg: AGaylord no wonder I like it so much
	5:24pm dale: been watching laugh in and all the political jokes dan rowan tells seem like they were written just for this presidency. - 45 years hasn't changed a thing
	5:26pm Gaylord Fields: Hiya, Carmichael!
	5:26pm Cecile: Sonny and Cher had a complicated relationship. Why would Sonny's funeral be any different?
	5:27pm Carmichael: There is, in my mind anyway, a definite Nixon/Trump corollary that survives the passing of time.
	5:27pm Gaylord Fields: Gene!!!
	5:27pm dale: wow - i was gonna request pitney for next week
	5:27pm Carmichael: Heya Gaylord, great Woody Guthrie punchline back there!
	5:27pm modchick65: #GenePitneyCrush
	5:28pm Cecile: didn't some garage band cover Nobody Know's What's going on in my mind?
	5:28pm Cecile: didn't some garage band cover Nobody Know's What's going on in my mind?
	5:28pm listener james from westwood: Gene's getting Shakespearean on us!
	5:28pm The Contessa: Gene! Lovely performer. So generous to his fans
	5:29pm Gaylord Fields: @dgg: Karl Marx never sounded quite so groovy before. @modchick65: The line forms behind me, sister!
	5:29pm Michael 98145: Nixon to China, DiJiT to Russia?
	5:29pm dale: i picked up gene pitney's 'big sixteen' at a salvay when i was in college and had to get everything he did - even the george jones/melba montgomery duet albums which are stinkers.
	5:30pm Michael 98145: Marianne, thank you !!
	5:30pm The Contessa: Saw her at the airport once…
	5:31pm Michael 98145: love, love her
	5:31pm Gaylord Fields: @dale: When I started my WFMU career I dedicated myself to playing too much Gene Pitney. And in his case, too much is actually not quite enough.
	5:32pm timurf: i've always considered this delightful show sort of a 3 hour musical sugar high!
	5:32pm Adrian in London: Oh, I'd forgotten this Marianne track. It's lovely.
	5:32pm Gaylord Fields: Sheila: Is this back-to-back programming some sort of oblique commentary on the affair Marianne Faithfull had with Gene Pitney?
	5:32pm Brendan: The Sock It to Me girl on Laugh In was part a prehistoric 70's culture towards women.
	5:32pm Sem Chumbo: Tye real deal, is marianne.
	5:34pm The Contessa: It's been dark all day here :-(
	5:34pm dale: HA! marianne and gene.....brute force - king of fuh brute force?
	5:36pm dale: shelia, please listen to this song written by nick cave when you get a chance www.youtube.com...
	5:36pm Gaylord Fields: @dale: She thought he was kinda full of himself but also said he was the best lover she ever had.
	5:36pm Rob Kopp: Hello all. Just home for the last half hour. Will listen to the complete show tomorrow. Was in a restaurant where one of the owners played his 45's. She's doing that once a month.
	5:38pm chalmers: Brute Force and Daughter of Force still perform around here. They were on Seven Second Delay several years back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxrL7hNyMc4
	5:38pm Parq: Cecile at 5:28, I think that's the way most people thought of it at the time. As someone above said, she was being Cher. (In case anyone wonders why this meant to much to me, my own mother was terminally ill at the time.)
	5:38pm Michael 98145: we need a resto like that, Rob ...
	5:38pm Christine: Haha, Rod Stewart is too manly for puppies.
	5:40pm Rob Kopp: It was fun. They're calling it singlestjesavond. Evening for singles. Not for single people, but with vinyl-singles.
	5:41pm Michael 98145: so glad vinyl did not die as had been predicted
	5:42pm Brendan: Gots to go .Thx Sheila B!
	5:42pm dale: gaylord, a man that owns a golf course probably has a good sized putter.
	5:43pm dale: i think i have a 20 year old copy of cool and strange music with a piece on brute force. a character for sure.
	5:44pm Gaylord Fields: @dale: Yowza!
	5:45pm Cecile: Carm, seeing things through those lenses, I can understand your reaction.
	5:47pm JtotheK: great to hear the Donald Byrd, found that track on 45 last year.
	5:51pm dale: always think of keili now when i hear lana del rey
	5:53pm basilmaster: hey sheila,you are killing it (as always) :)
	5:53pm Parq: This has been great. Thanks for the bright, shiny sounds and for letting me dish and vent.
	5:54pm Michael 98145: thank you again, wonderful DJ Sheila

	5:57pm The Contessa: Thank you Sheila for a lovely evening. Thanks @Ken! Bye everyone.
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY Madam DJ.
	6:00pm chris: thanks, djsheilab!

	3:34pm carol d: Stand by you and all immigrants 100%!
	3:34pm BlahBadyBlah: Sorry to hear you're inconvenienced. But only a bit. As Iran is a state sponsor of terrorism they really can't be trusted.
	3:35pm farmer pete: Wow, comments board birthday shout-out... That's like getting knighted in vinyl armor.
	3:35pm Adrian in London: Oh, happy birthday Contessa! ;-)
	3:36pm Michael 98145: yes, indeed!
	3:36pm Tom: During World War II president Roosevelt banned Jewish refuges from entering into USA. How'd that work out? Oh.
	3:36pm Mandy: HB Contessa, mine was yesterday!

	3:39pm P-90: Or " la mia cara Contessa." But you get the idea...
	3:40pm JakeGould: I'm actually trying to only talk about good things but then the "cray" pops up and I can't even. For the first time in my life I truly and consistently can't even some days.
	3:41pm The Contessa: You're a doll, Sheila, lovely track, thanks xxx
	3:42pm farmer pete: This song's amazing.
	3:45pm P-90: Pure Doo-Wop Heaven
	3:45pm dale: time life compilation - oh my!
	3:47pm djsheilab: @dale Serious collectors items!
	3:47pm listener james from westwood: The 9th ruling against the EO was one of the few bright spots since 3 weeks ago. Aghast at both the sheer unforced error nature of it and the willful ignorance of how it affects millions of folks. Hoping for more similar bright spots for his remaining couple of years. (Witness the Chaffetz town hall where folks in UT were Not. having. it.)
	3:48pm LPCOVERLOVER: Laura Nyro does a great cover of Deserie with Labelle! Produced by Gamble and Huff!
	3:49pm Adrian in London: @James I've seen the teacher giving out at the Chaffetz town hall thingy but who was on stage? Who was she talking to?
	3:50pm dale: probably one of the only reissues of that charts song - the good folks at time life did a fine thing.
	3:51pm Michael 98145: Town Hall: www.washingtonpost.com...
	3:53pm Anonymous Coward: Except for the chorus/bridge,this "8 Day's" is a completely different song.
	3:54pm modchick65: I love songs about Beatles. If I were to start deep collecting, that would probably be my thing.
	3:55pm terribilia: best music to clean out my closet to, thanks sheila :-}
	3:57pm djsheilab: @terribilia I think quite a few people clean to my show :)
	3:59pm Anonymous Coward: Brilliant Green...?
	4:00pm Anonymous Coward: Knew it, she has a distinctive style for a J-POP artist
	4:00pm Michael 98145: yes, love them
	4:00pm BlahBadyBlah: The 9th is a judicial joke. Most over ruled court in the country
	4:03pm TehBadDr: One can never have too many records, unless you lack a turntable. Like I do at the moment. 8 ^ (
	4:04pm farmer pete: Not a girl, a woman!
	4:04pm brendanswfmuaccount: That Amber Arcades song is great. According to wikipedia, she was a lawyer for the UN before doing the singer/songwriter thing fulltime.
	4:06pm Clïff in Prägůe: Mandy - February is about 9 months after late spring/early summer, that'd be my guess
	4:06pm P-90: Brain Pickings! Maria Popova! I've been a loyal addict for years!
	4:07pm Michael 98145: keyword : humane
	4:08pm Sem Chumbo: Heard the boom boom from far off. Hiya, djsheliaB, and the sophistiqué. That would be you, for one, @P-90.
	4:08pm modchick65: This is a great point. I've been do freaking depressed.
	4:09pm Mandy: I was actually wondering how media will change during this time. Last 8 years the idea of "zombies, anarchy and dystopia" was pretty big theme in films, tv, and games. I wonder what the big zeitgeist in media will be.
	4:09pm ilovenon: agreed! love and unity from London U.K.
	4:09pm BK from BK: Thank you !!!!
	4:10pm modchick65: so
	4:10pm BlahBadyBlah: I think I've had enough liberal whining for the day. Time to youtube
	4:11pm TehBadDr: Hey! What's all this political stuff? The small minded tyrant is the duly elected head of our state! He's already making 'Merika grate again, just like he promised!
	4:11pm P-90: Check it out yo: https://www.brainpickings.org Highly reccommended, made with love and care, and you can have it delivered to your inbox weekly FOR FREE. Or donate if the spirit takes you...
	4:12pm ChrisB.: This gets a lot of spins here at Christmas.
	4:12pm Michael 98145: the rise of the Orc { like an out-of-mine experience, riding and watching a slow motion train wreck driven by The Joker }
	4:13pm Michael 98145: out-of-mind :(
	4:13pm TehBadDr: P-90, is that yours?
	4:13pm dale: i wonder if claudine ever sang bang bang i shot my baby.
	4:13pm Brendan: Well, as soon as we get ourselves cleaned up and we get a little smellum in our hair, why, we're gonna feel 100% better about ourselves and about life in general.
	4:15pm dale: wow - google says she released bang bang my baby shot me down
	4:15pm TehBadDr: Smellum? I hardly knew 'em!
	4:15pm P-90: Greetings up in The Great North, @Sem!
	4:15pm Cecile: yeeesh, that's a little on the nose.
	4:15pm djsheilab: @dale WOAH!
	4:20pm listener james from westwood: @Michael 98145: If I read right, Chaffetz himself. Last dragging I saw like that they caught a million pounds of fish.
	4:20pm listener james from westwood: @Mandy: Zombies still have some life in them, no pun intended; I'm copyediting a humor book about zombies right now!
	4:22pm dale: this version of respect is hilarious! lots of references to a claudine version that says it was pulled, but not one audio file? here's a nice french version by another sheila to warm you sheila b www.youtube.com...
	4:23pm Michael 98145: anyone else remember the series, Millennium ? i was hooked on that back in the last century.
	4:23pm farmer pete: James? You're a copy editor and you found work? Sacre bleu!
	4:23pm Adrian in London: Was that Deborah and the Puerto Ricans track anything to do with The Flying Lizards? Wasn't their singer called Deborah? To Google…
	4:24pm alan from sacto: this set is the bomb-omb
	4:25pm djsheilab: Thanks @Alan from Sacto!
	4:25pm Adrian in London: Oh, Google, she say yes…
	4:25pm Carmichael: Hey Alan, I'm in Carmichael.
	4:26pm listener james from westwood: @Michael: I do indeed. Lance Henriksen, right?
	4:26pm listener james from westwood: @farmer pete: I have indeed! Also a proofreader.
	4:27pm alan from sacto: Hey Carmichael, I'm in River Park, working in Rancho C now. Love djS

	4:36pm SeanG: love all the swedish chanteuses
	4:38pm The Contessa: So lovely, this one
	4:38pm postmanpaul: Hello world, sounding very kinda well received here in the UK too. Nothing wrong with being very spoilt so early in the
	4:39pm Gaylord Fields: Russ!!!
	4:39pm annie: pmpaul!!! good to see you!
	4:40pm postmanpaul: annie!!! hey, and you too fine lady.
	4:41pm Carmichael: Paul! Haven't heard from you in a while. How's the postal system these days??
	4:42pm postmanpaul: Hi Carm, laying low, only posting comments! nice to see you.
	4:43pm dale: rant liberal or otherwise all you want - it's your show!
	4:43pm Michael 98145: [ sorry .. so it begins : www.washingtonpost.com... ]
	4:44pm Uncle Michael: Spring break, 1975: I arrived in Aspen the day Claudine shot Spider. No, he was not skiing at the time.
	4:44pm -Ken: Claudine Longet shot Spider Sabich to death in the bathtub of their Aspen Colorado love nest.
	4:44pm farmer pete: That's smart. The bathtub will collect most of the blood.
	4:44pm Sem Chumbo: Spider Sabich died as a result of misdemeanor negligent homicide, i.e. "I didn't know the gun was loaded."
	4:45pm -Ken: And considering the mess that Spider usually left behind, no jury was able to convict her.
	4:46pm Uncle Michael: By the time we got into town, it was a topic of conversation literally every single place one would go.
	4:47pm Carmichael: So yes, Deborah was indeed the Flying Lizards singer, "The Puerto Ricans" was actually one guy named Dennis Bovell, who produced Linton Kwesi's music. Nice catch, Adrian!
	4:49pm Michael 98145: the WFMU Accu-Mind comes thru again!
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Claudine wigkey: en.wikipedia.org... ...& a Stones song!...
	4:50pm still b/p: They didn't bother to turn the creative/sound dial much of a click's difference from My Boy Lollipop to Oh, Henry did they?
	4:51pm dale: maybe all the web references to her singing that song are just false legend - not one copy exists to stick on the youtube?
	4:53pm The Contessa: Glass!! Such a treat on my birthday!
	4:53pm The Contessa: And Jess and Scott are the loveliest people…
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if Spider had been armed w/ automatic weapons, we could've prevented this interesting convo between Liberal whiners...
	4:58pm TehBadDr: This reminds me of a strange after hours place in AUS.
	5:00pm dale: she was actually convicted of negligent homicide and given 30 days in jail. she got to pick the 30 days and just went in on weekends. she then went on vacation with her lawyer who was married at the time and she married him after his divorce.
	5:03pm Carmichael: Here you go, Dale: "Longet has never performed again after the criminal trial, and the Sabich family initiated civil proceedings to sue Longet. The case was eventually settled out of court for a large monetary settlement, with the proviso that Longet never tell or write about her story. They also demanded that Claudine withdraw from public circulation her recording of "Bang Bang, My Baby Shot Me Down."
	5:03pm common: good friday sheila and all.
	5:05pm brendanswfmuaccount: Wow, nice find Carmichael.
	5:06pm JasonInBoston: Haha! Jerry Ross wrote that! Yo Philadelphia is HIS CD!
	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's no 'Angel Baby'.
	5:06pm alan from sacto: Son of a sabich!
	5:07pm farmer pete: Aspen is no picnic. It's like the Clearwater of the Rockies.
	5:07pm Uncle Michael: pronounced SA-bitch.
	5:07pm Anonymous Coward: The skiing down the mountain thing, re Claudine, was an SNL sketch...
	5:07pm farmer pete: Sheila, it's your liberalism, with your voice, that I love.
	5:08pm Christine: Morning, all! At least I'm awake for part of the show... and for one of my fave topics, the Longet murder. I believe Sabich was not in the bath, but standing at the sink.
	5:08pm P-90: The false impression that Spider Sabich was actually shot while skiing may have begun with a Saturday Night Live sketch that appeared shortly after the murder.
	5:08pm farmer pete: Isn't that how Sonny Bono died? There's actually a touching little memorial to him in NW D.C.
	5:09pm Carmichael: And ironically, the song's writer Sonny Bono died on the ski slopes.
	5:09pm Parq: This Longet thing may be one of those things where fiction has become remembered as fact. The first installment of SNL include a bit called the "Claudine Longet Downhill Invitational" in which stock footage of skiers beefing was melded with gunshot Foley cues to suggest that each contestant was being gunned down in mid-schuss. I strongly suspect that's why so many people "remember" that Spider departed this world in that manner.
	5:09pm Uncle Michael: But not from a gunshot wound.
	5:10pm Parq: Sorry P-90, you beat me to it.
	5:10pm farmer pete: Sonny wasn't shot. Just a bad wipeout. His wife (Mary, not Cher) took over his congressional seat.
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I bet Hunter Thompson in Aspen was behind it all.
	5:11pm Carmichael: This sounds like early Osmond Brothers ...
	5:11pm Uncle Michael: By '75 Hunter rarely came into town from woody Creek.
	5:12pm JtotheK: Chiming in a bit late, but thumbs up to the Millie Small, Marion Ryan tunes!
	5:12pm Carmichael: The Jerome was likely the ONLY place he ever went in town.
	5:12pm Parq: And Cher, making an unannounced appearance, took over the memorial, much to the consternation of Sonny's family.
	5:13pm Christine: The Longet trial was quite weird... the jurors seemed to fall for her beauty and gentle manner and thus not think her capable of the crime she committed. I read some newspaper reports from the time, and there was this attitude that she was being treated unfairly because of being a celebrity - when her fame and money completely privileged her here.
	5:16pm northguineahills: Stereolab happy face!
	5:16pm Uncle Michael: Carmichael is right.
	5:16pm Carmichael: STEREOLAB!!!!!
	5:16pm Michael 98145: there is a bust of Sonny in the Palm Springs Airport : www.ci.palm-springs.ca.us...
	5:17pm farmer pete: Cher did say some very nice things, but she couldn't resist being Cher.
	5:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wull who could blame him all those skiers being shot...
	5:17pm still b/p: Going from link to link that started with Sheila B. info, seconds ago I encountered a Greg Allman and Cher album cover (Allman and Woman, oy) on which someone added a cartoon word balloon so Greg's saying, "Fuck you, Sonny Bono."
	5:18pm Carmichael: @Uncle Michael, I don't think that phrase has ever been uttered before ....
	5:18pm Adrian in London: Here's the transcript of the SNL Claudine Longer sketch with Chevy Chase and Jane Curtin snltranscripts.jt.org... "Uh-oh! Uh-oh! It looks to me like he's been accidentally shot by Claudine Longet!"
	5:18pm farmer pete: That wasn't very nice.
	5:18pm chalmers: Cher really did dominate Sonny's funeral in a melodramatic way just a few years after she was mocking him in a Beavis and Butthead video.
	5:18pm dgg: i am stupid for never listening to stereolab huh
	5:19pm Gaylord Fields: Stereolab: Socialism you can dance to! This analog synth kills fascists.
	5:21pm Michael 98145: cuteness
	5:21pm northguineahills: Nice one Gaylord!
	5:21pm Carmichael: This music is making me happy.
	5:22pm Michael 98145: oh, my, Judy Carne
	5:23pm djsheilab: @Carmichael The most important goal for my show! Thanks for saying that :)
	5:23pm Parq: It's not how over the top Cher was, so much as the fact that she made no mention of her intending to show up to anyone who might be interested, like, say, the family that had organized the memorial.
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A bittuv awlright.
	5:23pm dgg: AGaylord no wonder I like it so much
	5:24pm dale: been watching laugh in and all the political jokes dan rowan tells seem like they were written just for this presidency. - 45 years hasn't changed a thing
	5:26pm Gaylord Fields: Hiya, Carmichael!
	5:26pm Cecile: Sonny and Cher had a complicated relationship. Why would Sonny's funeral be any different?
	5:27pm Carmichael: There is, in my mind anyway, a definite Nixon/Trump corollary that survives the passing of time.
	5:27pm Gaylord Fields: Gene!!!
	5:27pm dale: wow - i was gonna request pitney for next week
	5:27pm Carmichael: Heya Gaylord, great Woody Guthrie punchline back there!
	5:27pm modchick65: #GenePitneyCrush
	5:28pm Cecile: didn't some garage band cover Nobody Know's What's going on in my mind?
	5:28pm Cecile: didn't some garage band cover Nobody Know's What's going on in my mind?
	5:28pm listener james from westwood: Gene's getting Shakespearean on us!
	5:28pm The Contessa: Gene! Lovely performer. So generous to his fans
	5:29pm Gaylord Fields: @dgg: Karl Marx never sounded quite so groovy before. @modchick65: The line forms behind me, sister!
	5:29pm Michael 98145: Nixon to China, DiJiT to Russia?
	5:29pm dale: i picked up gene pitney's 'big sixteen' at a salvay when i was in college and had to get everything he did - even the george jones/melba montgomery duet albums which are stinkers.
	5:30pm Michael 98145: Marianne, thank you !!
	5:30pm The Contessa: Saw her at the airport once…
	5:31pm Michael 98145: love, love her
	5:31pm Gaylord Fields: @dale: When I started my WFMU career I dedicated myself to playing too much Gene Pitney. And in his case, too much is actually not quite enough.
	5:32pm timurf: i've always considered this delightful show sort of a 3 hour musical sugar high!
	5:32pm Adrian in London: Oh, I'd forgotten this Marianne track. It's lovely.
	5:32pm Gaylord Fields: Sheila: Is this back-to-back programming some sort of oblique commentary on the affair Marianne Faithfull had with Gene Pitney?
	5:32pm Brendan: The Sock It to Me girl on Laugh In was part a prehistoric 70's culture towards women.
	5:32pm Sem Chumbo: Tye real deal, is marianne.
	5:34pm The Contessa: It's been dark all day here :-(
	5:34pm dale: HA! marianne and gene.....brute force - king of fuh brute force?
	5:36pm dale: shelia, please listen to this song written by nick cave when you get a chance www.youtube.com...
	5:36pm Gaylord Fields: @dale: She thought he was kinda full of himself but also said he was the best lover she ever had.
	5:36pm Rob Kopp: Hello all. Just home for the last half hour. Will listen to the complete show tomorrow. Was in a restaurant where one of the owners played his 45's. She's doing that once a month.
	5:38pm chalmers: Brute Force and Daughter of Force still perform around here. They were on Seven Second Delay several years back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxrL7hNyMc4
	5:38pm Parq: Cecile at 5:28, I think that's the way most people thought of it at the time. As someone above said, she was being Cher. (In case anyone wonders why this meant to much to me, my own mother was terminally ill at the time.)
	5:38pm Michael 98145: we need a resto like that, Rob ...
	5:38pm Christine: Haha, Rod Stewart is too manly for puppies.
	5:40pm Rob Kopp: It was fun. They're calling it singlestjesavond. Evening for singles. Not for single people, but with vinyl-singles.
	5:41pm Michael 98145: so glad vinyl did not die as had been predicted
	5:42pm Brendan: Gots to go .Thx Sheila B!
	5:42pm dale: gaylord, a man that owns a golf course probably has a good sized putter.
	5:43pm dale: i think i have a 20 year old copy of cool and strange music with a piece on brute force. a character for sure.
	5:44pm Gaylord Fields: @dale: Yowza!
	5:45pm Cecile: Carm, seeing things through those lenses, I can understand your reaction.
	5:47pm JtotheK: great to hear the Donald Byrd, found that track on 45 last year.
	5:51pm dale: always think of keili now when i hear lana del rey
	5:53pm basilmaster: hey sheila,you are killing it (as always) :)
