Listener comments!
	♥ 9:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The other Wailers - from Tacoma! This track is sited as the sort of thing Hendrix surely heard growing up in WA state. Which is to say his roots really were Rawk as much as Blues being a Northerner of a certain age group.
	9:11pm Jeff: This is hitting the spot.
	9:13pm JakeGould: Perfect music to kick back and relax to after you just threw out some spring cleaning crap!
	♥ 9:16pm Steve Krinsky: Sorry about abrupt ending; I'll make it up to you.
	♥ 9:22pm Drunken Creep: Great set here!
	9:23pm csuspect: Nice!!
	9:31pm Stevel: Pegasus must have been an FM rock hit. I know every note but never owned any Allman Brothers records.
	♥ 9:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No getting past the Allman's musicianship.
	♥ 9:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (Wull - Jimi was a Seattle boy.)
	9:36pm Stevel: That was a great Allman story
	♥ 9:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...'SeaTac'...)
	9:44pm Stevel: Not entirely listening. Does Billy Joe Shaver play the guitar leads?
	10:17pm redkayak: Good evening, all. Great show, Steve :)

	♥ 11:20pm Steve Krinsky: Hi Henry, Hi all. I'm having fun; hope you are too!
	11:57pm Caryn: Nice show!
