Listener comments!

	9:57pm Funky16Corners: Hey Rich! Enjoy, and have a great Thanksgiving!
	10:02pm northguineahills: Classic!
	10:03pm Funky16Corners: One of the funniest TV eps ever!
	10:07pm northguineahills: I only saw it in syndication nearly 15 years later, and blew snot out my nose (and I watched WKRP reruns in my teens). RIP David Cassidy.
	10:07pm Uncle Michael: I take it I missed "the humanity."
	10:07pm Funky16Corners: I break up laughing every time I see it, without fail. Such a good show, and such an inspired episode.
	10:07pm Funky16Corners: Hey Unk!
	10:08pm Funky16Corners: SACKS OF WET CEMENT!!!
	10:08pm cupcakejenny: Did you play the wkrp clip? I just got on
	10:09pm Funky16Corners: Yes, I opened with it
	10:09pm Parq: I haven't changed my mind about the P-Family. There, I said it.
	10:09pm cupcakejenny: Aw start over
	10:09pm Funky16Corners: That's OK. It'll be over soon.
	10:10pm Uncle Michael: Me either. I probably wouldn't enjoy it now...but I cherishh the memory.
	10:11pm northguineahills: only on WFMU can you go from Christian Marclay to the Partridge Family (or one of my dj sets)
	10:12pm Funky16Corners: Variety is the spice of life. You have to throw the car into reverse at high speed now and then.
	10:12pm cupcakejenny: Holy crap lol
	10:12pm Funky16Corners: Wha??
	10:12pm Doug Schulkind: The best thing (for me) about WKRP in Cincinnati was the DJ authenticity. Possibly the only radio DJ characters on television that actually wore headphones when they talked on mic. Hello, Testifiers!
	10:12pm Funky16Corners: Hey Doug!
	10:13pm cupcakejenny: I never heard this
	10:13pm Uncle Michael: I'm supposed to use headphones?
	10:13pm northguineahills: (Like Doug would know anything about djing ;)
	10:13pm Uncle Michael: This was before Danny joined Wings, right?
	10:14pm Funky16Corners: Suzanne Crough/Linda McCartney comparisons?
	10:15pm Uncle Michael: The Suzanne Crough isolation tapes are brutal.
	10:15pm Funky16Corners: PING PING PING
	10:16pm Parq: A great, great moment on WKRP -- Johnny arrives, very hung over, to start his morning show. He cues up his first record (it was that kind of show) and it's on the wrong speed. Without potting it down, he stops it. Whump. Without potting it down, he back-cues it. Vwoop vwoop vwoop. He goes on mike, and obviously in pain but trying to maintain his deejay voice, says, "All right -- now we're going to hear -- the long version."
	10:16pm northguineahills: Wait, Flo & Eddie w/ David Cassidy, whargarbbl TF???!!!
	10:18pm Uncle Michael: Friday nights.
	10:18pm geezerette: what ngh said! was cassidy in on the joke?
	10:19pm northguineahills: Leif Garrett? (before my time)
	10:19pm Uncle Michael: What joke? David pal'd around with the L.A. music crowd. He even wrote with Brian Wilson at one point.
	10:20pm geezerette: leif garret sounds so seasonal, yet impractical.
	10:20pm northguineahills: Apparently, David has a true interest in music. The fact that he was dreamy obfuscated that fact.
	10:23pm geezerette: um, i stand and sit corrected. also, i like rick nelson so, y' know..
	10:24pm Uncle Michael: Rick Nelson did more to popularize rock and roll than anyone.
	10:24pm Funky16Corners: Rick Nelson was very, VERY talented.
	10:24pm Uncle Michael: I knew this had to be Seals & Croft before I checked!
	10:25pm Funky16Corners: Yup!
	10:25pm Funky16Corners: Great two-sider
	10:25pm geezerette: Being serious, he seemed to have a sad, chaotic life and seemed to have made peace with it.
	10:26pm Jeff Ash: Listening on my phone in Ohio tonight!
	10:26pm Uncle Michael: The impact of Ricky playing rock and roll on his parents' show cannot be overstated.
	10:26pm Uncle Michael: I am being serious.
	10:27pm Funky16Corners: Hey Jeff! Hey Geezerette!
	10:27pm Funky16Corners: Gonna have to do a long Rick Nelson tribute
	10:28pm geezerette: Yeah, I was being absolutely serious about Rick Nelson. Howdy Larry & gang!
	10:28pm Funky16Corners: Rock's rock and roll, rockabilly, country rock and pop stuff is all worth checking out
	10:31pm Uncle Michael: I can't tell you how much I adore this Emitt song. I hate that I can't CRANK IT right now,
	10:32pm Uncle Michael: For me, the late discovery of Rhodes a dozen or so years ago was Big Star big.
	10:33pm Funky16Corners: Got into Emitt back in the 80s garage days
	10:35pm Funky16Corners: I remember being shocked years ago when a slightly older woman at work recognized one of his songs that I was playing. Apparently Emitt got fair amount of play in Tiger Beat and such at the time
	10:36pm Uncle Michael: I honestly don't recall how I first encountered his music.
	10:37pm Funky16Corners: His albums used to be in every cut out bin, then when the Bangles covered Live he started to get some recognition
	10:37pm northguineahills: geezerette likes rick nelson!
	10:37pm Funky16Corners: Hey, so do I!
	10:37pm Uncle Michael: I gotta go dark. Long day today and another long, travelig day tomorrow. Keep the melodies coming, Larry. And thanks.
	10:37pm Funky16Corners: Not in that way....NOT THAT THERE'S ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT.
	10:38pm Funky16Corners: Nite UM! Save me some of that apple pie!
	10:38pm Uncle Michael: not likely!
	10:38pm Funky16Corners: Dang!
	10:39pm geezerette: If I had a lava lamp I'd be staring into it.
	10:39pm Uncle Michael: Damn, the guitar on this banana business!
	10:39pm Funky16Corners: What if I told you that this song was the link between Curt Boettcher and Mickey Rooney??
	10:40pm Uncle Michael: And the band Rooney?
	10:40pm northguineahills: geezerette and rick, sitting in a tree... (sorry...)
	10:41pm Funky16Corners: Produced by Curt and Keith Olsen, led by Mickey Rooney Jr
	10:42pm Uncle Michael: Discogs never heard of that record.
	10:43pm Funky16Corners: It's in there. The dummies had to call the band Song and the album Album.
	10:43pm Uncle Michael: NOON, not Moon.
	10:43pm geezerette: NGH, but you called David Cassidy "Dreamy". (I know, you were quoting reportage. :D )
	10:43pm Funky16Corners: www.discogs.com...
	10:44pm Funky16Corners: Hey, you're right!
	10:45pm Funky16Corners: FIXED!
	10:45pm Uncle Michael: And with that typo decrypted...good noght!
	10:46pm Parq: Uncle Michael, if you're still here, have a great day tomorrow, the kind of day every cook deserves. As for me, Mrs. Parq and I will be making TG dinner at home for the first time in about six years. Those of you in the NYC area, if you see a mushroom cloud over lower midtown Manhattan tomorrow, you'll know what's going on.
	10:47pm Parq: They should totally have used this version of "Knights" over the main titles in Tim Burton's "Dark Shadows".
	10:47pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, sir. Whatever you do, Parq...don't be up by nine. Night!
	10:52pm northguineahills: @geezerette: I will say, w/o reserve, that David Cassidy at the time of my birth, was "Dreamy". You can quote me on that!
	10:53pm doctorjazz: Hey, made it (was watching the new Coltrane doc, falling asleep figured this would wake me up). Love this Badfinger...
	10:53pm Funky16Corners: I think there are legions of middle aged women (ex-teenyboppers) that will concur with that assessment.
	10:53pm Funky16Corners: Hey Doctor!
	10:54pm Funky16Corners: Holy shit, I'm 11 all over again when this is playing.
	10:54pm Funky16Corners: Actually 9, but whatever...
	10:55pm northguineahills: Ok, I have to drive to Orlando to meet w/ my bros., before meeting my sister-in-laws tomorrow (Guyanese-Colombian family, so the food should be good). Tigerbeat.... is a good indie record label! I was -6 when this came out (don't dox me!)
	10:55pm geezerette: Badfinger! :D @NGH, I just might! :) Hiya, Doc! Yo, Parq!
	10:56pm Funky16Corners: Drive safe! Enjoy the day!
	10:56pm geezerette: Happy feasting, NGH!
	10:58pm doctorjazz: Hey Geezerette and the rest of you Testifiers!
	11:00pm cupcakejenny: <3
	11:00pm Funky16Corners: I knew you'd like this one!
	11:01pm cupcakejenny: :)
	11:04pm geezerette: Fizzy pop!
	11:05pm Funky16Corners: Getting fizzier! Hang on!
	11:13pm doctorjazz: Fun!
	11:14pm Funky16Corners: I'm glad you're digging it!
	11:14pm Dean: Damn, missed Earth Quake. They're locals. I even heard Robbie Dunbar at a local bar a couple years ago, with one of the Rubinoos.
	11:14pm Funky16Corners: They were deep into that Berserkley scene later in their career
	11:15pm coelacanth∅: greetings Larry and all
	11:15pm Funky16Corners: Hi C!
	11:16pm Dean: I'm partial to their cover of the ELO tune, "Ma Ma Belle"
	11:21pm Dean: You wanna hear a real contrast? Compare early Go Go's (c.'78) to later. The early stuff was punk, no holds barred.
	11:22pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, they were part of that Masque scene with the Germs
	11:23pm Funky16Corners: @Dean, who covered ELO, Jellyfish?
	11:27pm Dean: Earth Quake, live album: https://www.discogs.com/Earth-Quake-Rocking-The-World/master/250179. "Masque scene" doesn't do it justice. I was there, wrote and edited Flip Side fanzine, heard many Germs shows, no Go Go's, but a couple by The Eyes, which featured Charlotte pre-Go Go's (and D.J. pre-X).
	11:27pm Funky16Corners: No shit?!? I'm jealous!
	11:27pm Dean: A couple of my bands even played the Masque!
	11:28pm Funky16Corners: That's heavy!
	11:35pm Dean: Meanwhile, as I type Israel Vibrations are playing the venue abutting my backyard.
	11:36pm Parq: Great show, Larry. Enjoy tomorrow in whatever form you approach it. Peace.
	11:36pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Parq! You too!
	11:37pm Dean: Vibration, singular.
	11:38pm Funky16Corners: I'm creating the only vibrations in my neighborhood (that I know of)...
	11:39pm Dean: I'm sure that any vibration you create is real.
	11:40pm Funky16Corners: I'm trying.
	11:44pm geezerette: OMG this set!!!
	11:45pm Funky16Corners: Glad you like it!
	11:47pm Funky16Corners: This is a HEAVILY sampled record: Beastie Boys’s “Pass the Mic” Black Sheep’s “The Choice is Yours” Casual’s “Me-O-Mi-O” DJ Krush’s “Edge of Blue” Dr. Dre’s “A Nigga Wit a Gun” Dr. Dre’s “High Powered” Gang Starr’s “24-7-365” Insane Clown Posse’s “Never Had it Made” MC Eiht’s “We Come Strapped” Mix Master Mike’s “Gang Tackle” Natas’s “Get My Head Together”
	11:47pm Funky16Corners: Bass and drum breaks
	11:50pm Doug Schulkind: Any George Avakian (R.I.P.) connections in this playlist, Larry?
	11:52pm Funky16Corners: None that I am aware of, though I'm sure he and Mr Hammond (Smith) crossed paths at some point.
	11:52pm Doug Schulkind: Yeah, that got me to wondering.
	11:53pm Funky16Corners: I have to do an all A&M/CTI/Kudu show sometime soon
	11:53pm Funky16Corners: Creed Taylor
	11:53pm geezerette: Great show,thanks Larry! Happy holiday everybody!
	11:54pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Geezerette! You too!
	11:55pm Dean: Just listened to Black Sheep, didn't catch the sample.
	11:55pm Funky16Corners: I can't remember what they used. It's an awfully long record.
	11:56pm Doug Schulkind: I once had a meeting with Creed Taylor. He had this brilliant idea to convince me and an associate to develop a CTI website for prince sum of zero dollars. He stated that we should be honored to do so.
	11:58pm GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO: Thanksgiving Day programming notes: • Kurt Gottschalk will be on 9-noon, then stay on another two hours filling in for Meghan and Underwater Theme Park. • David and Ruth of Ridgewood Radio will be filling in for Flash Strap and Explorers Room, 7-10pm. Guaranteed good tunes to assist with the digestion.
	12:00am Dean: While I prepare the traditional Thanksgiving lasagne and orange bread pudding, I will listen avidly to Kurt, David, and Ruth!
	12:00am Jeff Ash: Good night from Ohio!
	12:00am Funky16Corners: I wonder if anyone wrote a book about Taylor. He had his hands in some very interesting stuff.
	12:01am Funky16Corners: Nite Jeff! Happy Thanksgiving!
	12:01am Jeff Ash: And to you and yours!
	12:01am coelacanth∅: Thanks Larry! take care everyone
	12:01am Funky16Corners: Thanks C!
	12:02am Doug Schulkind: Happy Thanksgiving Larry and everyone!
	12:02am Funky16Corners: Same to you Doug! Enjoy the day!

	10:55pm geezerette: Badfinger! :D @NGH, I just might! :) Hiya, Doc! Yo, Parq!
	10:56pm Funky16Corners: Drive safe! Enjoy the day!
	10:56pm geezerette: Happy feasting, NGH!
	10:58pm doctorjazz: Hey Geezerette and the rest of you Testifiers!
	11:00pm cupcakejenny: <3
	11:00pm Funky16Corners: I knew you'd like this one!
	11:01pm cupcakejenny: :)
	11:04pm geezerette: Fizzy pop!
	11:05pm Funky16Corners: Getting fizzier! Hang on!
	11:13pm doctorjazz: Fun!
	11:14pm Funky16Corners: I'm glad you're digging it!
	11:14pm Dean: Damn, missed Earth Quake. They're locals. I even heard Robbie Dunbar at a local bar a couple years ago, with one of the Rubinoos.
	11:14pm Funky16Corners: They were deep into that Berserkley scene later in their career
	11:15pm coelacanth∅: greetings Larry and all
	11:15pm Funky16Corners: Hi C!
	11:16pm Dean: I'm partial to their cover of the ELO tune, "Ma Ma Belle"
	11:21pm Dean: You wanna hear a real contrast? Compare early Go Go's (c.'78) to later. The early stuff was punk, no holds barred.
	11:22pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, they were part of that Masque scene with the Germs
	11:23pm Funky16Corners: @Dean, who covered ELO, Jellyfish?
	11:27pm Dean: Earth Quake, live album: https://www.discogs.com/Earth-Quake-Rocking-The-World/master/250179. "Masque scene" doesn't do it justice. I was there, wrote and edited Flip Side fanzine, heard many Germs shows, no Go Go's, but a couple by The Eyes, which featured Charlotte pre-Go Go's (and D.J. pre-X).
	11:27pm Funky16Corners: No shit?!? I'm jealous!
	11:27pm Dean: A couple of my bands even played the Masque!
	11:28pm Funky16Corners: That's heavy!
	11:35pm Dean: Meanwhile, as I type Israel Vibrations are playing the venue abutting my backyard.
	11:36pm Parq: Great show, Larry. Enjoy tomorrow in whatever form you approach it. Peace.
	11:36pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Parq! You too!
	11:37pm Dean: Vibration, singular.
	11:38pm Funky16Corners: I'm creating the only vibrations in my neighborhood (that I know of)...
	11:39pm Dean: I'm sure that any vibration you create is real.
	11:40pm Funky16Corners: I'm trying.
	11:44pm geezerette: OMG this set!!!
	11:45pm Funky16Corners: Glad you like it!
	11:47pm Funky16Corners: This is a HEAVILY sampled record: Beastie Boys’s “Pass the Mic” Black Sheep’s “The Choice is Yours” Casual’s “Me-O-Mi-O” DJ Krush’s “Edge of Blue” Dr. Dre’s “A Nigga Wit a Gun” Dr. Dre’s “High Powered” Gang Starr’s “24-7-365” Insane Clown Posse’s “Never Had it Made” MC Eiht’s “We Come Strapped” Mix Master Mike’s “Gang Tackle” Natas’s “Get My Head Together”
	11:47pm Funky16Corners: Bass and drum breaks
	11:50pm Doug Schulkind: Any George Avakian (R.I.P.) connections in this playlist, Larry?
	11:52pm Funky16Corners: None that I am aware of, though I'm sure he and Mr Hammond (Smith) crossed paths at some point.
	11:52pm Doug Schulkind: Yeah, that got me to wondering.
	11:53pm Funky16Corners: I have to do an all A&M/CTI/Kudu show sometime soon
	11:53pm Funky16Corners: Creed Taylor
	11:53pm geezerette: Great show,thanks Larry! Happy holiday everybody!
	11:54pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Geezerette! You too!
	11:55pm Dean: Just listened to Black Sheep, didn't catch the sample.
	11:55pm Funky16Corners: I can't remember what they used. It's an awfully long record.
	11:56pm Doug Schulkind: I once had a meeting with Creed Taylor. He had this brilliant idea to convince me and an associate to develop a CTI website for prince sum of zero dollars. He stated that we should be honored to do so.
	11:58pm GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO: Thanksgiving Day programming notes: • Kurt Gottschalk will be on 9-noon, then stay on another two hours filling in for Meghan and Underwater Theme Park. • David and Ruth of Ridgewood Radio will be filling in for Flash Strap and Explorers Room, 7-10pm. Guaranteed good tunes to assist with the digestion.
	12:00am Dean: While I prepare the traditional Thanksgiving lasagne and orange bread pudding, I will listen avidly to Kurt, David, and Ruth!
	12:00am Jeff Ash: Good night from Ohio!
	12:00am Funky16Corners: I wonder if anyone wrote a book about Taylor. He had his hands in some very interesting stuff.
	12:01am Funky16Corners: Nite Jeff! Happy Thanksgiving!
	12:01am Jeff Ash: And to you and yours!
	12:01am coelacanth∅: Thanks Larry! take care everyone
	12:01am Funky16Corners: Thanks C!
	12:02am Doug Schulkind: Happy Thanksgiving Larry and everyone!
	12:02am Funky16Corners: Same to you Doug! Enjoy the day!
