Listener comments!
	♥ 8:00pm Uncle Michael: hello, HTRGB and listeners.
	♥ 8:00pm mariano: Howdy Becky, Scott, tonkers.
	8:01pm BH: getting the sense there's a lot of talent between P and Ri
	🎸 ♥ 8:01pm ultradamno: Becky! Tonkies!
	♥ 8:02pm Little Danny: Heya Becky and all
	♥ 8:03pm loveless: Hey all. When this ends, will it start again? I like this format.
	♥ 8:04pm Matt Fiveash: This is an auspicious section of the alphabet
	8:05pm BH: an Alphabet series by first names, just to complicate things
	♥ 8:06pm Little Danny: Love Dolly's soul arrangements on Monument
	8:06pm Becky: I have to forget the turntable is on 33 RPM at least once a show.
	8:07pm P-90: Hi Becky! Terrific fill-n on Saturday, it was a blast!
	♥ 8:07pm Little Danny: Ahhh man Johnny Paycheck's vocals can't be beat
	♥ 8:09pm Matt Fiveash: Man do I love these Johnny Paycheck sides! I think it was Il Bruce who dubbed him "Buck Owens without the medication"
	8:10pm Mailman Tom: Refreshing sounds for a Wednesday nite
	♥ 8:11pm Little Danny: Haha, Matt, totally.
	8:12pm Nate K: Perfect mountain vacation jams right now.
	♥ 8:12pm mariano: When you get to the S's will you include any of Stallone's songs from "Rhinestone"?
	8:13pm Becky: @mariano I will if you send me the 45
	8:13pm bnowb: Show is sounding amazing TY
	8:15pm slugluv1313: greetings, Becky and everyone!
	8:16pm slugluv1313: @ mariano -- omg i did NOT know that about "Rhinestone"
	♥ 8:17pm mariano: Hah! Not the answer I was expecting, Becky :) Don't know if you know about "Rhinestone" but it was an 80s movie with Stallone and Dolly Parton, where she's tasked with turning him (he's an NYC cabbie) into a country musician. It was about as ill-conceived as it sounds. The only thing I remember about it is Dolly saying to Sly that his jeans were so tight she could see his pulse.
	♥ 8:20pm Smokestack: Spoiler Alert: Rhinestone ends with a big musical number where, in fact, Stallone becomes the country music star Dolly dreams him to be.
	♥ 8:21pm Matt Fiveash: Becky- is the Johnny Paycheck Hilltop stuff pre- or post- Little Darlin'? I guess I could look it up but I'd rather annoy you while you're trying to cue up 2 minute records
	8:22pm Becky: 1) How is it possible that I have never heard of this cinematic masterpiece 2) is it on Prime or whatever
	♥ 8:22pm Power Papi: Wait...a king-size WHAT??
	8:24pm Becky: @Fiveash I believe right before LD
	♥ 8:24pm Matt Fiveash: Copy that.
	8:24pm BH: on checking Wikipedia.. I'm sure Stallone was busy in the early 80s.. but 1984 seems like a year or two late to catch the back-end of the Urban Cowboy trend.
	♥ 8:24pm Little Danny: Not to cut Becky off with my teacher's pet waving hand but Matt I think the Hilltop stuff was his debut
	8:26pm Becky: This reminds me, I still need to do my taxes.
	♥ 8:27pm Matt Fiveash: "I've had every ailment known to man, from the African mumps to the dishpan hands" is one of the greatest lines ever penned
	8:27pm BH: would an hour be enough time for a show about country musicians who had to battle tax evasion charges?
	♥ 8:28pm Smokestack: @Becky Who would have thought you could still get a fine VHS selection on Amazon these days: www.amazon.com...
	♥ 8:28pm Ken From Hyde Park: @UM - That model coffee grinder you mentioned on the previous show seems to be out of stock everywhere. Also: Hi, Becky and honkers.
	♥ 8:28pm mariano: Becky: doesn't seem to be on any of the main streaming services. I'm sure there's many a good deal on a VHS copy though, they'll probably pay you to take one ;)
	8:28pm BH: gotta love that new and used are the exact same price for that VHS copy
	♥ 8:31pm mariano: Hey, FMU should offer Rhinestone for streaming!
	♥ 8:36pm Mr. Fine Wine: Thurl!
	♥ 8:36pm Uncle Michael: That's a drag, Ken!
	♥ 8:37pm Uncle Michael: Thurl makes me happy.
	8:38pm Becky: pompilios.com
	♥ 8:39pm Little Danny: I have this Tommy Raye 45 yet I have never heard this side
	8:41pm BH: Jerry might need to add more of an echo to this one
	8:41pm Becky: ha!
	♥ 8:41pm Smokestack: "Have Reverb, Will Sing"
	♥ 8:41pm Little Danny: That's a wicked twang right there
	♥ 8:43pm dave wuz here: my favorite jerry reed
	♥ 8:47pm Scott Williams: I wish Thurl woulda recorded my jingle!
	♥ 8:48pm mariano: What's that one purposely funny rockabilly song where the singer starts laughing about the ridiculously excessive reverb? Like a rockabilly parody song, but from the 50s (guessing from the production).
	♥ 8:50pm Scott Williams: @mariano, this isn't it, but reminds me of that great Andy Partridge miniature "the history of rock n'roll", where he makes a single sound to represent each decade from the 50s to 80s. The 50s is a hiccup swathed in echo
	♥ 8:50pm Handy Haversack: Holy crap, does this show sound good right now. It's been an EVENING. Gonna have taco night now -- but THANKS, Becky!
	♥ 8:50pm Little Danny: No such thing as excessive reverb, ever!
	♥ 8:52pm Bootsie: I think this is my fave Charlie Rich.
	8:53pm Becky: There's a great video of CR doing this live on...one of the shows.
	♥ 8:54pm Bootsie: @Becky I'll look for it!
	♥ 8:55pm mariano: Ooh, I'll have to look for that, Scott! Thanks Becky, thanks Scott, take care everyone!
	8:55pm BH: I was listening to an American Top 40 episode that was a 1974 best-of and Casey was ready with a brief Charlie Rich background story for his appearances in the top 100 of that year.
	8:56pm Joe Kyle Jr.: Thanks for putting together another fabulous show! Enjoying it from SF, CA
	♥ 8:57pm Little Danny: Thanks Becky, great show as always.
	♥ 9:00pm radioronan: Thanks Becky!
	9:00pm slugluv1313: @ mariano -- YES i was thinking the same thing! FMU could stream Rhinestone . . . AND screen it at Monty Hall, whenever things get back to some sort of "normal"
	9:01pm slugluv1313: excellent show (as always!), Becky -- HUGE THANKS!!!
