	5:20pm Peter in SEA: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/29/obituaries/shadia-egyptian-actress-and-singer-is-dead.html wow, that Shadia was adorable! Rest in Power Shadia! Idol of the Masses! :-)
	♥ 5:20pm Ken From Hyde Park: www.urbandictionary.com... Alou: "A girl who is smart, witty and amazing. ..." This right here!
	5:20pm Jocelyn: Good luck, ngh!
	5:23pm northguineahills: Gracias, mis amigos!
	5:24pm northguineahills: My mother saw me shirtless, and asked if I was mugged. I replied, it's just from moving my darn records and my queen-sized mattress (i'm bruised all over the place).
	5:26pm Jocelyn: Moving sucks! Especially moving our precious records!
	♥ 5:29pm listener james from westwood: The Bird & the Bee!!
	5:29pm Carmichael: I'm not sure how I feel about this song ... :)
	♥ 5:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: < picturing a Woof Moo bucket brigade of sorts to transport records across town >
	5:30pm northguineahills: when I tried to move my mattress (memory foam), it knocked me over, and I fell on one of turntables. I was pinned, and took 10 mins to get free. I got it to my car, and couldn't fit it in. Luckily, my neighbor came home during his lunch break, and helped me taco it into my car. Fun times Bird and the Bee!
	5:31pm Carmichael: I was never a fan of Diamond Dave.
	♥ 5:31pm tim from champaign: That's ironic because I usually feel mugged after I talk to my mom.
	5:31pm Vanessa Tara: ran out of the shower to hear this
	♥ 5:32pm tim from champaign: Oh man, I'm glad you made it out OK, ngh. Death by memory foam sounds slow and painful.
	5:32pm Vanessa Tara: a 60s girl group vocal on a cover of an 80s song!
	5:33pm Vanessa Tara: my mind is now a pretzel
	5:36pm P-90: Sure! There’s no rule against complimenting your own segues ;)
	5:37pm chalmers: Lana Wood played the younger version of her sister's character in "The Searchers."
	5:37pm P-90: The Styles Section has a COVER STORY about Lana Wood?! And Sheila’s friend wrote it?
	5:39pm djsheilab: P-90—YES! The great pop artist April March wrote it :)
	♥ 5:41pm Travisano66: There are reasons we never heard that Lana Wood song. Wowwie. 1975? Sounds like it's 6 years too late to follow in the Nancy Sinatra bootprints.
	♥ 5:42pm Michael 98145: "Lana Wood was born Svetlana Gurdin in Santa Monica, California"
	♥ 5:42pm tim from champaign: How cool about the Lana Wood song. Did you play the actual acetate, Sheila?
	♥ 5:43pm chris: stalking has never been more adorable. :)
	♥ 5:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: Road trip opportunity — try the best milkshakes in each of the fifty states: blog.cheapism.com...
	♥ 5:44pm KidProJoe: Best BeeGees song hands down.
	5:44pm Vanessa Tara: remember this as a small kid in montreal
	5:44pm P-90: That’s so cool! I’m a devotee of all things Lana Wood— she’s one of those slightly B-list performers with well-deserved “cult” status. She’s a bit of a go-go 60’s icon, and now there’s also this fascinating matter of her advocacy for her sister (and the questions surrounding her death are not the only issue...)
	5:44pm northguineahills: Well, considering my parents are teetotalling fundamentalists, I have to be stealthy to sneak fun in, tim....
	5:44pm ncjay: I was just going to say the same thing! I've always liked this one
	5:44pm Vanessa Tara: had no idea
	5:45pm P-90: This Bee Gees has one of the all time great musical intros, it’s a real “grabber”
	5:45pm Vanessa Tara: jive talkin on this album
	5:45pm RomanDogBird: this might be the song that finally got me hooked on the bee gees
	♥ 5:45pm mariano: Omg, it's the theme from SNL's "The Barry Gibb Show"!
	5:46pm ncjay: the synth bass line when he sings "follow you" just before the chorus is one of the best of the 70s
	♥ 5:47pm chris: awesome news on the interview, ngh! and congrats on surviving mattress moving. best wishes, sir.
	♥ 5:52pm Michael 98145: Thank you so much for that Emma Tricca segment. "Italian-born, London-based singer-songwriter Emma Tricca has had her life shaped by two key encounters with folk legends. While still only an apprentice songwriter just out of school she met John Renbourn when he played a solo show in Rome. After the gig Emma got the opportunity to play John one of her own songs, his approval gave her the confidence to start writing and gigging properly and they remain firm friends. Very shortly after her first encounter with John, Emma met Odetta, the mysterious and legendary singer who had turned Bob Dylan onto acoustic music in the late '50s. Despite Odetta's reputation for reticence, they had a long, long conversation over dinner, and Odetta urged Emma to do what she'd been long considering doing - to move to England and study the craft there. Until then Emma's upbringing had been peripatetic, split between Italy and the UK, with excursions through Africa - Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Eritrea and Libya - as well up and down the Italian peninsula. She comes from a family of scientists and artists. A grandfather worked for Siemens making discoveries in sound waves and communications while his brother, her great-uncle, painted. Her mother researched poetry, while her cousin wrote it."
	♥ 5:54pm Michael 98145: and this. whoo.
	5:54pm Zydeco Phil: Speechless
	5:54pm Vanessa Tara: lawd a mercy!!!

	♥ 5:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: Remember to come back / stick around for Billy Jam's annual female rap show at 7PM Eastern time. Thanks, Sheila and Emma and the sound crew and all!

	5:20pm Jocelyn: Good luck, ngh!
	5:23pm northguineahills: Gracias, mis amigos!
	5:24pm northguineahills: My mother saw me shirtless, and asked if I was mugged. I replied, it's just from moving my darn records and my queen-sized mattress (i'm bruised all over the place).
	5:26pm Jocelyn: Moving sucks! Especially moving our precious records!
	♥ 5:29pm listener james from westwood: The Bird & the Bee!!
	5:29pm Carmichael: I'm not sure how I feel about this song ... :)
	♥ 5:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: < picturing a Woof Moo bucket brigade of sorts to transport records across town >
	5:30pm northguineahills: when I tried to move my mattress (memory foam), it knocked me over, and I fell on one of turntables. I was pinned, and took 10 mins to get free. I got it to my car, and couldn't fit it in. Luckily, my neighbor came home during his lunch break, and helped me taco it into my car. Fun times Bird and the Bee!
	5:31pm Carmichael: I was never a fan of Diamond Dave.
	♥ 5:31pm tim from champaign: That's ironic because I usually feel mugged after I talk to my mom.
	5:31pm Vanessa Tara: ran out of the shower to hear this
	♥ 5:32pm tim from champaign: Oh man, I'm glad you made it out OK, ngh. Death by memory foam sounds slow and painful.
	5:32pm Vanessa Tara: a 60s girl group vocal on a cover of an 80s song!
	5:33pm Vanessa Tara: my mind is now a pretzel
	5:36pm P-90: Sure! There’s no rule against complimenting your own segues ;)
	5:37pm chalmers: Lana Wood played the younger version of her sister's character in "The Searchers."
	5:37pm P-90: The Styles Section has a COVER STORY about Lana Wood?! And Sheila’s friend wrote it?
	5:39pm djsheilab: P-90—YES! The great pop artist April March wrote it :)
	♥ 5:41pm Travisano66: There are reasons we never heard that Lana Wood song. Wowwie. 1975? Sounds like it's 6 years too late to follow in the Nancy Sinatra bootprints.
	♥ 5:42pm Michael 98145: "Lana Wood was born Svetlana Gurdin in Santa Monica, California"
	♥ 5:42pm tim from champaign: How cool about the Lana Wood song. Did you play the actual acetate, Sheila?
	♥ 5:43pm chris: stalking has never been more adorable. :)
	♥ 5:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: Road trip opportunity — try the best milkshakes in each of the fifty states: blog.cheapism.com...
	♥ 5:44pm KidProJoe: Best BeeGees song hands down.
	5:44pm Vanessa Tara: remember this as a small kid in montreal
	5:44pm P-90: That’s so cool! I’m a devotee of all things Lana Wood— she’s one of those slightly B-list performers with well-deserved “cult” status. She’s a bit of a go-go 60’s icon, and now there’s also this fascinating matter of her advocacy for her sister (and the questions surrounding her death are not the only issue...)
	5:44pm northguineahills: Well, considering my parents are teetotalling fundamentalists, I have to be stealthy to sneak fun in, tim....
	5:44pm ncjay: I was just going to say the same thing! I've always liked this one
	5:44pm Vanessa Tara: had no idea
	5:45pm P-90: This Bee Gees has one of the all time great musical intros, it’s a real “grabber”
	5:45pm Vanessa Tara: jive talkin on this album
	5:45pm RomanDogBird: this might be the song that finally got me hooked on the bee gees
	♥ 5:45pm mariano: Omg, it's the theme from SNL's "The Barry Gibb Show"!
	5:46pm ncjay: the synth bass line when he sings "follow you" just before the chorus is one of the best of the 70s
	♥ 5:47pm chris: awesome news on the interview, ngh! and congrats on surviving mattress moving. best wishes, sir.
	♥ 5:52pm Michael 98145: Thank you so much for that Emma Tricca segment. "Italian-born, London-based singer-songwriter Emma Tricca has had her life shaped by two key encounters with folk legends. While still only an apprentice songwriter just out of school she met John Renbourn when he played a solo show in Rome. After the gig Emma got the opportunity to play John one of her own songs, his approval gave her the confidence to start writing and gigging properly and they remain firm friends. Very shortly after her first encounter with John, Emma met Odetta, the mysterious and legendary singer who had turned Bob Dylan onto acoustic music in the late '50s. Despite Odetta's reputation for reticence, they had a long, long conversation over dinner, and Odetta urged Emma to do what she'd been long considering doing - to move to England and study the craft there. Until then Emma's upbringing had been peripatetic, split between Italy and the UK, with excursions through Africa - Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Eritrea and Libya - as well up and down the Italian peninsula. She comes from a family of scientists and artists. A grandfather worked for Siemens making discoveries in sound waves and communications while his brother, her great-uncle, painted. Her mother researched poetry, while her cousin wrote it."
	♥ 5:54pm Michael 98145: and this. whoo.
