	♥ 3:05pm doctorjazz: H Testifiers !
	♥ 3:05pm Funky16Corners: Jeff! Doc!
	♥ 3:06pm Funky16Corners: The unseasonal mildness continues unabated here in NJ. Hasn't really been below 40 during the day in a while
	🥁 ♥ 3:08pm Jeff Ash: That is a damn shame.
	♥ 3:09pm KimSorise: Have you watched the Paul Butterfield doc that is on Amazon prime right now?
	♥ 3:09pm KimSorise: Hey Larry!
	♥ 3:09pm Funky16Corners: Unfortunately it's also continuously damp, which wreaks havoc on my arthur-itis, but I'll take that over shoveling snow
	♥ 3:09pm Funky16Corners: Hey Kim! The doc is on my queue!
	♥ 3:10pm Funky16Corners: That and the Fleshtones doc
	3:11pm Erica: Had to dry my hair. Hello Testifiers!
	♥ 3:11pm Funky16Corners: Hi Erica!
	♥ 3:12pm KimSorise: Mine as well -watched her aim is true this week about photog Jini Dellaccio. it was cool
	♥ 3:12pm Funky16Corners: You can't come in with wet hair, you might get electro-ma-cuted!
	♥ 3:12pm Funky16Corners: @Kim - That one, too. Prime is full of great stuff if you dig enough
	♥ 3:13pm coelacanth∅: hey Larry and all
	♥ 3:13pm Funky16Corners: Hey C!
	🥁 ♥ 3:14pm Jeff Ash: San Ho Zay and Night Stomp have been on my workout playlist forever.
	♥ 3:14pm Funky16Corners: Freddy King was the shit! I have a ton of his 45s
	♥ 3:15pm Funky16Corners: Freddy and Albert were also both BIG men who made their guitars look small in comparison!
	🥁 ♥ 3:17pm Jeff Ash: I guess us big guys gotta stick together.
	♥ 3:18pm Funky16Corners: Indeed!
	3:23pm fleep: All sizes gotta stick together. Howdy, Larry and all
	♥ 3:23pm Funky16Corners: Hey Fleep!
	3:24pm Erica: Hi Fleep.
	♥ 3:26pm coelacanth∅: (might like that more than wang dang doodle)
	♥ 3:26pm Funky16Corners: Me too. A real hard-hitting 45
	3:37pm Erica: All's quiet in the chat today.
	♥ 3:38pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, speak up my peeps!
	♥ 3:39pm Funky16Corners: What's happening in the world that's good? I made some very nice chicken piccata meatballs this week.
	3:40pm Erica: Yum Larry!
	♥ 3:41pm Funky16Corners: Got the recipe from my mother in law. Basic meatballs (made with ground chicken) cooked in white wine, lemon juice, chicken stock and capers, Served over buttered noodles.
	♥ 3:44pm Funky16Corners: One of the great 'It's Your Thing' rip-offs
	♥ 3:45pm dutchtheo: Funcky chicken piccata
	♥ 3:46pm Funky16Corners: It was a hit with the kids!
	3:46pm fleep: It took 3+ hours to uninstall/install/repair Norton Insecurity on multiple devices and I'm about to load a bowl and chillax with this amazing music. I'm letting Trader Joe take care of the meatball situation here.
	♥ 3:47pm Franco Twinkie: Hey Larry! It's been awhile.
	♥ 3:48pm doctorjazz: Hard to talk during shows I keep on at work. Hard even to read the comments. Enjoying the sounds, though!
	♥ 3:48pm Funky16Corners: Franco! How you been?
	3:49pm Erica: Glad you joined us Franco.
	♥ 3:50pm Funky16Corners: @Doc - That's cool. Music's for listening, anyway.
	♥ 3:51pm Franco Twinkie: Just fine, thanks. I'm usually not at home on Thursday afternoon so that's why I've been MIA. I don't carry a device.
	3:52pm fleep: Does the Sex Machine take credit cards?
	♥ 3:52pm coelacanth∅: i'm working and winding up lunch break soon, unfortunately. looking forward to the end of what must be one of the longest 4-5-day work weeks i've ever done.
	♥ 3:54pm Funky16Corners: @Fleep - Apple Pay and Bitcoin only...
	♥ 3:54pm Little Danny: Hey Larry, hey all
	♥ 3:55pm Funky16Corners: Hey Danny!
	3:56pm Erica: Little Danny!
	♥ 3:56pm coelacanth∅: yeah this is i think just my 2nd time catching testify! since the move to daytime. Fabio does one of my favorite shows on fmu also (for years) - which makes for a shitty conflict...but actually i don't catch his show that much either.
	♥ 3:56pm Little Danny: Hey hey Erica
	♥ 3:58pm Little Danny: I wish I had a better grasp of T-Bone's voluminous catalog
	♥ 3:58pm coelacanth∅: well - is it a machine that vends sex or a machine that is directly involved with said sex? -asking for a friend...
	♥ 3:58pm doctorjazz: I actually enjoyed getting into stuff when the show was at night. But, as Larry said, getting to listen to it is the best part of the show!
	♥ 4:03pm Little Danny: Larry, you may have already covered this, but the vamps from "Sex Machine" and "Cold Sweat" worked their way into a lot of blues musicians's funkier jams, too, a la "It's Your Thing"
	♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: @Danny - It is indeed huge, and so long, time-wise and on a bunch of different labels, I don't think there's a single, comprehensive set out there of his stuff
	♥ 4:04pm Franco Twinkie: I love Albert Collins and his 1000 foot long guitar cord.
	♥ 4:04pm Little Danny: Yeah, and, like John Lee Hooker, he recorded for dozens of indie labels...
	♥ 4:05pm Funky16Corners: Ike and Tina Turner are the same way, Major stuff stretched out over several unassociated labels.
	♥ 4:06pm Little Danny: This Collins record is such a beast. Way ahead of its time for '59. Definitely pointed the way towards a mod stylishness
	4:06pm CupcakeJenny: Hello everybody!
	♥ 4:07pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, Collins' small combo, with the organ and the sax really crossed lines
	♥ 4:07pm Funky16Corners: Hey, it's mah wahhhhhhff...
	4:08pm CupcakeJenny:
	♥ 4:09pm Franco Twinkie: I stood in front of Albert as he attacked his Telecaster in a theater lobby with is amp waaay far away on the stage. He had no front teeth I seem to remember.
	♥ 4:10pm Sem: Hiya, Larry and Testifiers. Along for the rest of the ride.
	♥ 4:10pm Funky16Corners: Hey Sem!
	♥ 4:10pm Little Danny: @Franco: Amazing!
	♥ 4:11pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - I think you're right
	♥ 4:11pm Little Danny: God I love these early Albert Collins sides
	♥ 4:11pm Little Danny: Soooo hip
	♥ 4:13pm Funky16Corners: I can't believe they're not better known, or haven't gotten the deluxe comp treatment
	♥ 4:14pm Little Danny: Definitely. At least they're affordable for us hopeless collectors
	♥ 4:15pm Little Danny: I wish "Icy Blue" was issued as a 45. It's "Taboo"!
	♥ 4:15pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, Cookin' Catfish is the only one that costs any money (at least as far as I know, these days). It's been a while
	♥ 4:15pm Funky16Corners: This one is almost surf-y
	♥ 4:15pm WR: Hi GTD streamers! Finally got out of work meetings. Albert Collins! Testifying the Blues!
	♥ 4:16pm Funky16Corners: Hey WR!
	♥ 4:23pm WR: I was a dishwasher at a restaurant/ club and remember vividly the two times Collins played there around 79 / 80.
	♥ 4:24pm Funky16Corners: A real showman!
	♥ 4:24pm Little Danny: His guitar tone is so gorgeous

	♥ 4:43pm Funky16Corners: BTW, the pictures on top are Albert Collins on the left and Little Buster on the right
	♥ 4:46pm Matt from New Orleans: Larry I ended up going to a part of New Orleans where T-Mobile’s coverage is lacking so I’ll have to catch up on what I missed. I’ve enjoyed what I’ve heard.
	♥ 4:47pm Doug Schulkind: Gotta run for the bus. Have a killer last 12 minutes, Larry!
