	♥ 2:18pm Dennis Diken: glad you could stop by Sam, check the archives when you can!
	2:19pm Nutley Sam: I wrote a script to download my can't-miss archives automagically. Denny's Den is top of the heap.
	♥ 2:20pm Gaylord Fields: Sandy Becker! My copy is sans sleeve, alas.

	2:23pm Nutley Sam: @Gaylord do you pronounce "Okeh," "Okay" and "Okey" all the same?
	♥ 2:24pm Gaylord Fields: I do — thanks for asking.
	♥ 2:24pm Gaylord Fields: Speaking of beloved NYC children's show hosts, Sonny Fox is still going strong at age 95!
	2:24pm MelaniR: Phil Seymour! I really LOVED The Dwight Twilley Band and worked with them at Arista, although I was still a secretary so didn't get to do their PR at that time.
	♥ 2:26pm Dennis Diken: yeah Gaylord, Sonny did a great appearance on Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal Podcast a few years back. hi Melani!
	2:30pm ChrisB.: Hambone (Sandy) used to introduce a bit of wisdom on a board before dancing away. Gems like: “Cut your grass, so bugs can pass!”
	2:30pm Bill E.: I was pretty small but I DO remember Hambone! Prime!
	2:31pm MelaniR: The Zombies...sigh
	♥ 2:32pm Dennis Diken: alright Chris, thanks - hey Bill! got that one right Melani!
	♥ 2:34pm Gaylord Fields: I loved Hambone's shtick — and I'm saddened that practically none of Sandy Becker's show survives on tape or even kinescope (live TV and all).
	2:34pm ChrisB.: Ever see “The Christmas That Almost Wasn’t?” A real weird entry directed and starring Rosano Brazzi and features not only Sonny Fox, but Birthday House host Paul Tripp!
	2:34pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey Den...Brill show.....n a little bit of SLADE....Just add the DC5 n Xmas came early....cheers, e
	♥ 2:36pm Mike Sin: Been listening while working. Rolled in right during the Phil Seymour track. Without sounding to corny, those first LPs of his are quite "precious to me."
	♥ 2:37pm myron feld: @Chris B: and they used to advertise it on Paul Tripp's Birthday House, which aired on NBC. I always remember Santa intoning in a very deep and sad voice, "Christmas isn't coming this year!"
	2:37pm LesleyK: Your show really gets me through my Wed. afternoon work days! So good, thank you!
	♥ 2:39pm Gaylord Fields: @ChrisB.: The ad for that movie ran nonstop when it was released: "Christmas is not coming this year." And I was a huge fan of Birthday House!
	♥ 2:40pm Gaylord Fields: @myron feld: Ha! I hadn't even seen your posting!
	♥ 2:40pm Dennis Diken: thank you so much Lesley! agreed Gaylord, sure wish some Sonny footage existed. don't know the Christmas flick, must look for it. hey Mike! and AT!
	2:43pm ChrisB.: @myron @gaylord Oh yes! I remember that as well! I found the soundtrack album a few years ago. Not so good, quite treacly.
	♥ 2:45pm myron feld: @Gaylord: what's that expression about great minds? And yours and mine, too!
	2:48pm Reechie: You're gonna make me spend money on Dyke & T he Blazers now!
	♥ 2:49pm Dennis Diken: well spent Reechie, I assure you!
	2:50pm Michael Shelley: Hey friends!
	♥ 2:50pm Gaylord Fields: @myron: Haha!!!
	♥ 2:50pm Dennis Diken: Mikey!
	2:52pm ChrisB.: Do we have a quorum now of the World’s Greatest Music Experts?
	♥ 2:52pm Woo: When my cousin asked Little Richard to sign something, he would only do it if she prayed with him, which she did. By the cigarette machine.
	♥ 2:55pm myron feld: Birthday House devotees: the commercials i recall most from that show (other than "The Christmas That Almost Wasn't") was Progresso Chickaina Soup ("Chic-chic-chic-a-rina soooooup....") and Gimbel's shop at home upholstery service.
	♥ 2:56pm Dennis Diken: great story Woo. he wasn't so holy with me
	♥ 2:56pm Dennis Diken: Gimbel's - with a Murry Hill phone exhange

	♥ 2:58pm myron feld: He is so correct!
	♥ 2:59pm Gaylord Fields: Also, this Lemon Twigs song is a No. 1 hit in that alternate-reality 2020 we all wish for!
	♥ 2:59pm Woo: I believe that Little Richard event happened at Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel in Providence. The cigarette machine would later be stolen by two guys dressed as repairmen.
	2:59pm ChrisB.: @gaylord: exactly!
	♥ 3:00pm myron feld: The Lemon Twigs' dad, Ronnie D'Addario, has made some good pop records his own self.
	♥ 3:01pm Dennis Diken: got it right Gaylord and myron!
	3:05pm Michael Shelley: Gaylord - certified!
	♥ 3:06pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks for the verification, Michael! No. 1 hit-style music it is!
	3:09pm Andy R: Sal!!!!
	♥ 3:10pm Dennis Diken: yup Andy!
	3:10pm Andy R: Nice to hear his voice.
	♥ 3:13pm Dave the Spazz: Denny's Den is the stuff!
	3:13pm DA the DJ: Go Sal!
	3:13pm Nutley Sam: Shoot, I missed Grant Green while in my work meeting. Bah.
	♥ 3:14pm Dennis Diken: Sir Spazz! you got it, DA!

	3:19pm Michael Shelley: Sal sounds a bit like Kissel.
	♥ 3:19pm Matt Clarke: Hey Denny! Hey all!
	♥ 3:20pm Woo: The lesson: always wear a tuxedo when going out.
	♥ 3:20pm Candy-O'67: Diggin'' the Sal interview and love the Rascals!!

	3:26pm Nutley Sam: Pizza Pie!!
	♥ 3:28pm Dennis Diken: hey Kevin! Those Rob Roys, you know it Nutley man!
	♥ 3:28pm Gaylord Fields: No one has ever written a better lyric than that of Pizza Pie!
	3:29pm Nutley Sam: I like how in the first verse there's no clue that the song is about pizza.
	3:30pm Nutley Sam: @Dave the Spazz, we just watched Autumn Leaves on your recommendation. Great movie!
	♥ 3:30pm Dennis Diken: yes NS & G, genius, to be sure!
	♥ 3:35pm Wild Honey: @Sam - so glad you liked Autumn Leaves!
	♥ 3:36pm Woo: I just got an email advertising 50 percent off frozen pizza. Coincidence?
	♥ 3:36pm Matt Clarke: Love those Remo Four lads
	3:37pm Nutley Sam: @WH - Lorne Greene at his smarmy best
	♥ 3:37pm Gaylord Fields: @Woo: Targeted marketing gets one right.
	♥ 3:37pm Dennis Diken: Woo - Norman Fox And The Rob Roys are responsible, no doubt
	3:39pm Nutley Sam: I got an ad for a rake when you played Autumn Leaves
	3:41pm medson: Hey Dennis and everyone. Really enjoying the show.
	♥ 3:41pm Dennis Diken: thanks medson!
	♥ 3:42pm Gaylord Fields: @Nutley Sam: You don't wanna know what I got during "Uhh Part 1"
	3:42pm DA the DJ: Alright Sam!

	3:44pm Nutley Sam: Thanks DD!
	♥ 3:44pm Gaylord Fields: @Dennis: That Castaways 45 is a double-sided smash if there ever was one!
	♥ 3:45pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - argument? none here!
	♥ 3:47pm myron feld: Mr. 5x5 belting it out! (I think)
	♥ 3:48pm Gaylord Fields: It was a red letter day was when I finally flipped "Liar Liar" over after years of owning it and found that gem just sitting there, like "where have you been all my life!"
	♥ 3:48pm Dennis Diken: yes indeed my main man myron !
	♥ 3:49pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord - there are such things (or jsut...TAST)
	♥ 3:50pm Gaylord Fields: Dennis, I see in this final set you're Rushing to conclusions. (I'll see myself out.)
	3:50pm David Shortell: I heard from somebody that the Castaway's "Liar Liar" put Soma out of business, when they overdid the single's second printing to meet the demand when it unexpectedly became a hit. Is this true?
	♥ 3:52pm Woo: I have the 45 of Carry Me Back and it doesn't sound nearly this good. Is this the original version or was the LP version different?
	♥ 3:53pm Candy-O'67: Thanks, Dennis! Enjoyed the show today! :)
	♥ 3:53pm myron feld: Dennis, thanks again for making Wednesday afternoons the best!
	♥ 3:53pm Dennis Diken: Gaylord, corn poured here, my kinda yuks! wow David, that was probly not totally uncommon in "the day." actually Woo, I grabbed it from You Tube, it's probly the LP mix. what a track! thanks Candy-O and myron!!
