	10:03pm Doug Schulkind: End of nothin souuuuul party!
	10:04pm Funky16Corners: Doug!
	10:04pm Matt from New Orleans: I really don’t get why the Columbia period is looked down on. Lots of good stuff even if she was given better stuff to work with at Atlantic.
	10:05pm Funky16Corners: Columbia was all over the place, with jazz, showtunes, gospel and soul (near the end). But then all Aretha is good Aretha
	10:05pm chresti: Hi TesTIfy!
	10:05pm Erica: Can't believe it's the last week of August already. the kids in my town go back to school next week.
	10:06pm Funky16Corners: Hey Erica! So do the kids in my house!
	10:06pm coelacanth∅: hey Larry and all
	10:06pm JtotheK: Great Eddie & De-Havelons 45! Hi Larry, hiya everyone.
	10:06pm Funky16Corners: Chresti!
	10:06pm Erica: Also, hi everyone. I hope you had a wonderful trip Larry.
	10:06pm Funky16Corners: JtotheK!
	10:07pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Erica! It was very nice, but it's good to be home.
	10:10pm Funky16Corners: This is the lady in the GIF with the groovy earrings
	10:15pm JtotheK: Wait, is it now Friday night 7pm CST? (8pm FMU time?)
	🥁 10:15pm Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): i'm grooving!
	10:16pm Funky16Corners: Granny!
	10:16pm Doug Schulkind: Kids are back to school here in Pittsburgh already. Should be a crime to open school before Labor Day.
	10:16pm Funky16Corners: @JtotheK - It may be Finewine's trademark, but it's also oneof my fave 45s!
	🥁 10:16pm Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): howdy, Larry and folx! i as confused, too, JtotheK
	10:16pm Funky16Corners: @Doug - It's Pittsburgh'sown Chuck Edwards!
	10:18pm JtotheK: @larry, I'm just funnin', as it's now impossible for me to hear the song without immediately thinking of Friday night 7/8pm.
	10:19pm Matt from New Orleans: It’s a shame that Venisha Brown looked just like James instead of Yvonne Fair.
	10:20pm Matt from New Orleans: www.instagram.com...
	10:21pm Funky16Corners: @Matt - Is that JB's child with Yvonne?
	10:21pm Matt from New Orleans: Yup
	10:22pm Funky16Corners: That is a STRONG resemblance!
	10:27pm Matt from New Orleans: I love Seven B. Eddie Bo doing his thing in so many ways.
	10:27pm Erica: And this song has a strong resemblance of James Brown too. Did he write this one?
	10:27pm Funky16Corners: Great label!
	10:27pm Doug Schulkind: I thought Dy-na-Mite was by Jimmy Walker.
	10:28pm Erica: Don't you mean Dyn-O-Mite Doug?
	10:28pm Funky16Corners: @Doug - I can't believe Walker didn't record a 45 to capitalize on his fame. There is Dynomite by Tony Camillo's Bazuka
	10:29pm Funky16Corners: This is the two stylish gents with the maraccas in the gif
	10:30pm Doug Schulkind: Yes of course , Erica. Thanks for the correction.
	10:30pm Erica: Would've been cool if Jimmy Walker did record, even a comedy record called Dynomite.
	10:31pm Funky16Corners: If he'd come to fame in the 60s he would have been forced to by some enterprising record exec
	10:32pm chresti: Thunder Chicken
	10:32pm Funky16Corners: Philadelphia 45!
	10:33pm JtotheK: @Erica, Larry - he did in fact record such an album! www.discogs.com...
	10:33pm Matt from New Orleans: Does a thunder chicken spew lightning when bawking?
	10:34pm Funky16Corners: Only if you feed them properly
	10:35pm Erica: @JtotheK Now THAT IS Dynomite! Wish one of the tracks was called that though.
	10:36pm Erica: And it was released by our good friends at Buddah records.
	10:36pm Matt from New Orleans: One of the LP listings is for $50 and I got apoplectic but then clicked on the other LP listing and it was $1.23 which seemed more in line.
	10:38pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, I can't imagine a world where the sophisticated comedy of Jimmy JJ Walker is going for more than a few bucks
	10:40pm Erica: "Boys" is one of my favorite Shirelles songs. Surprised it was released in 1960, when the decade just begun and rockabilly was still popular.
	10:41pm JtotheK: I spun this Betty mighty crowded 45 with my good friend Flavor Dave (RIP, miss ya, buddy) when we filled in for a friend's night, and he took a picture because the spot was getting ... mighty crowded, but alas i don't have the pic. sigh
	10:41pm Erica: I knew they were big in the 60s but I didn't think they debuted that early on.
	10:41pm doctorjazz: Checking in.
	10:42pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - And it's the flipside to a giant hit 'Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow'
	10:42pm Jeff Ash: "Loose Juice" was on one of the first F16C mixes I ever grabbed. The mighty V.7 -- "Funky Shing-A-Ling"
	10:42pm Funky16Corners: Hey Doc!
	10:43pm Funky16Corners: @Jeff - That was a good one (if I say so myself).
	10:43pm Jeff Ash: Yes, sir, it sure was.
	10:43pm Matt from New Orleans: All 45s tonight Larry?
	10:43pm Erica: The B-side written by the legendary Carole King, of course. And this was BEFORE the Beatles (were famous).
	10:44pm Funky16Corners: @Matt - Yes, indeed!
	10:48pm Erica: With your BAD SELF!
	10:49pm Funky16Corners: Syl Johnson was/is amazing. A complete badass.
	10:53pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Larry. Until right now, I always thought that was a Motorhead original.
	10:54pm Funky16Corners: Hey Franco! Covered by The Who, the Rationals, the UK Birds (Ronnie Woods early band) among others
	10:55pm Franco Twinkie: Didn't know.
	10:57pm Erica: Crud good vocals here.
	11:06pm Erica: Reminds me of Sweet Soul Music.
	11:07pm Funky16Corners: It's definitely in the same vein.
	11:10pm doctorjazz: Neville spotting!
	11:11pm JtotheK: I’ll have to catch the rest via archive - thanks for the tunes Larry! Cheers everyone.
	11:11pm Funky16Corners: Nite Jtothek!
	11:11pm Franco Twinkie: When I was a kid I imagined Mohair Sam was a pink version of Cousin It, because my sister had a pink mohair sweater. It was my only reference point to mohair.
	11:11pm Funky16Corners: @Doc - I try to fit in as many of those as i can!
	11:12pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - That was definitely a word that I knew for years before I had any idea what it meant
	11:14pm Erica: Mohair /ˈmoʊhɛər/ is usually a silk-like fabric or yarn made from the hair of the Angora goat (not to be confused with the Angora rabbit which produces Angora wool).
	11:14pm Erica: According to Wikipedia anyway.
	11:14pm Funky16Corners: I think by the time I was a teen mohair was out of fashion
	11:15pm Erica: And by that point, the goats were spared of their wool.
	11:16pm northguineahills: Here for a bit....
	11:16pm Funky16Corners: Hey NGH!
	11:16pm Franco Twinkie: Another one that had me stumped was Alpaca.
	11:18pm northguineahills: Originally, Omar Khayyam was a Persian poet in the 14th c. whose collection of verses is called the Rubaiyats (I have a copy of the first printing of the first English translation from 1898, got it at stoop sale for 60 cents....
	11:19pm Franco Twinkie: Chuck Roast would go great with Hot Pastrami by The Dartells.
	11:20pm Funky16Corners: I ought to do an all food-song show
	11:20pm Franco Twinkie: My dream show.
	11:20pm Erica: That sounds musically delicious, with marshmallows Franco.
	11:21pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - I'll put it on the agenda!
	11:22pm Franco Twinkie: Larry, have you noticed how many food song are just someone yelling the name of a particular food?
	11:22pm Erica: I wouldn't be surprised if you did do an all food show Larry. Then this chat room would be filled with food conversations.
	11:23pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - I have indeed. I'll have to include "Beef Stew' by Obie Plenty
	11:24pm Erica: I meant a new all food-themed show.
	11:25pm Matt from New Orleans: There’s a monthly show on another station called Lunchtime Wrap as it airs at noon in the UK and they always have a lunch themed section.
	11:26pm Franco Twinkie: When I worked on a music program, we always talked about the food show, but alas, it never happened.
	11:26pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - I'm pretty sure I've done a 'soul food' set but not a whole show, but I'll have to go back and check
	11:28pm Franco Twinkie: I was the prop master on a cooking show. It was the best job I've ever had.
	11:28pm Funky16Corners: I bet you ate well!
	11:29pm Franco Twinkie: Indeed!
	11:37pm Matt from New Orleans: Have a good night everyone. Putting the phone down but will listen till I pass out.
	11:37pm Funky16Corners: Nite Matt!
	11:38pm Franco Twinkie: Good night Matt.
	11:39pm Jeff Ash: You also hepped me to this Lewis Clark song and it's part of my workout mix.
	11:40pm Franco Twinkie: As a matter of fact, I would love to take a dog to the drive-in.
	11:41pm Erica: I prefer to take a cat to the drive-in myself.
	11:41pm Franco Twinkie: I'm allergic to cats.
	11:42pm Funky16Corners: We almost went to the drive in when we were on vacation but I think we all would have fallen asleep
	11:46pm Franco Twinkie: What if Sugarpie Desanto had teamed up with Sugarcane Harris? I suppose that always will be one of the great unknowns.
	11:47pm Funky16Corners: I'd but that record.
	11:47pm Funky16Corners: BUY
	11:47pm Franco Twinkie: Cropper chopping wood?
	11:48pm doctorjazz: .Great mix, hard to sir still, gonna crash, thanks Larry!
	11:48pm Jeff Ash: King Curtis leading the backing band.
	11:48pm Funky16Corners: Yup, and Jimi Hendrix on rhythm guitar!
	11:49pm Franco Twinkie: Whoa!
	11:51pm Funky16Corners: It's a recycled rhythm track, first used on 'Help Me' by Ray Sharpe, then by Aretha, then King Curtis himself, then Owen Gray in the UK
	11:51pm Funky16Corners: Nite Doc!
	11:52pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - On the Aretha record?
	11:52pm Franco Twinkie: Yeah.
	11:53pm Funky16Corners: No, someone at Muscle Shoals
	11:54pm Erica: 1, 2, 3!
	11:55pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - It was Cornell Dupree
	11:56pm Jeff Ash: Thanks, Larry! Have a great weekend!
	11:57pm Franco Twinkie: I asked because it had Steve's economy. but if you say no...
	11:58pm Erica: Killer show. Ending it with Len Barry made it worth it.
	11:59pm Funky16Corners: Thanks all!
	11:59pm chresti: Thanks Larry!
	11:59pm Franco Twinkie: Good night y'all!
	11:59pm Funky16Corners: Nite Chresti!
	12:00am Funky16Corners: Nite Franco!
	12:00am Funky16Corners: @Erica - Glad you liked that!
	12:00am Funky16Corners: Nite Jeff!
	12:02am Erica: Can't wait for the birthday show next week. Goodnight!
	1:33pm Cal Zone!: This was such a great set, and may be one of my favorite shows ever of yours! So great. I've listened to it 2.5 times. My only problem with it is I can't resist getting up and jumping around when it's playing and sometimes I knock over things and people!
	1:36pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Cal! Also, the management takes no responsibility for damage arising from music-related joy-making.

	11:11pm Franco Twinkie: When I was a kid I imagined Mohair Sam was a pink version of Cousin It, because my sister had a pink mohair sweater. It was my only reference point to mohair.
	11:11pm Funky16Corners: @Doc - I try to fit in as many of those as i can!
	11:12pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - That was definitely a word that I knew for years before I had any idea what it meant
	11:14pm Erica: Mohair /ˈmoʊhɛər/ is usually a silk-like fabric or yarn made from the hair of the Angora goat (not to be confused with the Angora rabbit which produces Angora wool).
	11:14pm Erica: According to Wikipedia anyway.
	11:14pm Funky16Corners: I think by the time I was a teen mohair was out of fashion
	11:15pm Erica: And by that point, the goats were spared of their wool.

	11:22pm Franco Twinkie: Larry, have you noticed how many food song are just someone yelling the name of a particular food?
	11:22pm Erica: I wouldn't be surprised if you did do an all food show Larry. Then this chat room would be filled with food conversations.
	11:23pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - I have indeed. I'll have to include "Beef Stew' by Obie Plenty
	11:24pm Erica: I meant a new all food-themed show.

	11:41pm Erica: I prefer to take a cat to the drive-in myself.
	11:41pm Franco Twinkie: I'm allergic to cats.
	11:42pm Funky16Corners: We almost went to the drive in when we were on vacation but I think we all would have fallen asleep
	11:46pm Franco Twinkie: What if Sugarpie Desanto had teamed up with Sugarcane Harris? I suppose that always will be one of the great unknowns.
