	🥁 ♥ 3:09pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:09 Not a problem!
	♥ 3:10pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:07 all these bands did so much for the subsequent appreciation of the original artists. so many songs i heard a british or american group's version first. J Geils responsible for at least a 1/2 dozen. rest in peace, J.
	🥁 ♥ 3:12pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:10 That first album especially, is a goldmine
	🥁 ♥ 3:14pm Erica: RIP Mike Pinder of the Moody Blues.
	🥁 ♥ 3:15pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:14 I saw this morning
	🥁 ♥ 3:15pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:15 Sorry to go off topic but I saw that this morning too.
	🥁 ♥ 3:16pm Sem: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @3:06 Hello, AiT! Hope all well there.
	3:17pm bradford: ↳ WLSClark @3:05 Hiya Clark!
	🥁 ♥ 3:18pm WLSClark: Hi Andrew, Erica, drJ. Had not heard about Mike Pinder--what a bummer.
	🥁 ♥ 3:19pm Erica: ↳ WLSClark @3:18 Yeah. It's such a loss.
	♥ 3:19pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:12 yes that, and also "full house" (the first one i heard, as a child) many people don't know how J Geils was so good, before it turned to such stinky crap at the hands of seth justman and peter wolf that Mr. Geils left his own band. i so wish he'd fired them instead and gotten back on track.
	♥ 3:21pm coelacanth∅: isn't Mike Pinder a personal friend of Michael Shelley? ... rest in peace Mr. Pinder
	🥁 ♥ 3:21pm Funky16Corners: This is securely in my all-time top 10, any genre
	🥁 ♥ 3:26pm WLSClark: ↳ Erica @3:19 Mike Pinder: The singer and writer behind one of the most phenomenal stereo songs for its time "The Best Way to Travel" has passed away. I remember being at Grandma's house in Lincoln visiting when my brother Steve handed his fancy headphones to me in 1968 and played the song on a cassette and I could not believe the stereo effect! 4 channel sound in 2 channels in 1968!!! Been a total fave since!
	♥ 3:27pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "I Wish You Would" by "Billy Boy Arnold" Long Branch musician Mad Lee performs this song. I've hardly seen him since the Brighton Bar closed.
	🥁 ♥ 3:27pm Funky16Corners: I did a Moody Blues show back in 2020: wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 3:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @3:27 Hi David! I remember that name
	🥁 ♥ 3:29pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:26 Ponder also cowrote a lot of their earlier R&B oriented stuff too
	♥ 3:31pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Spoonful" by "Allman Joys" An early version of the Hour Glass?
	🥁 ♥ 3:31pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @3:31 Def Gregg and Duane but I don't know if any of the other Hour Glass guys were in the band
	🥁 ♥ 3:32pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:29 Yes. The guy was there for so much of the career of the Moodies!
	🥁 ♥ 3:32pm Erica: The Moody Blues, like Pink Floyd were a 60s psychedelic band turned 70s prog/space rock band. But unlike Floyd there were less overrated.
	🥁 ♥ 3:33pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:27 I see some of my faves in your tribute, Larry. There's just SOOOOO many.
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:32 The were an R&B/Beat band first, and I would never say that the psychedelic Pink Floyd were overrated
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm WLSClark: ↳ Erica @3:32 Except one became great and the other boring. haha
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:33 Yes, indeed. A truly great band.
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:34 Well both started out in the 60s haha. Forgot about their R&B/beat period. Also I meant the Pink Floyd became overrated on their later years.
	🥁 ♥ 3:36pm Funky16Corners: Clark, this is a Chicago record. Ever heard it?
	🥁 ♥ 3:38pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Feznecky" by "JC Davis" I can hear where Booker T and the MGs got Green Onions from.
	🥁 ♥ 3:38pm Erica: Lol
	🥁 ♥ 3:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:38 Green Onions was a couple of years before that one
	🥁 ♥ 3:39pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Coming Home Baby" by "Mel Torme" Funky Mel!
	🥁 ♥ 3:40pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:39 Should've checked the date first. Guess it was the other way around then.
	🥁 ♥ 3:47pm Funky16Corners: UNH! AHH!
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm WR: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:47 As you know, Eddie Bo on that vocal.
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @3:50 Oh, I know.
	♥ 4:01pm coelacanth∅: non- reggae Mittoo as late as '68? i did not know.
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm WR: ↳ Song: "Hip Hug" by "Jackie Mittoo" Hearing only a small difference in the rhythm section on this that from the original.
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:01 The rest of the album is pretty reggae, with a few exceptions
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: www.discogs.com...
	🥁 ♥ 4:07pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:36 Sorry Larry. I am listening and groovin but working on genealogy too. Are you talking Wildare express? Never heard of them, sorry. Cool tho to hear!
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:07 No, JC Davis and Feznecky
	♥ 4:17pm Beantown Doug: Finally here in time for some of the live fun.
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm Erica: ↳ Beantown Doug @4:17 Hey Doug!
	🥁 ♥ 4:19pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Beantown Doug @4:17 Hi Doug!
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: Before I mistakenly mistakenly said that Jim Valley had been in the Dynamics. He was in this band, the Viceroys.
	♥ 4:21pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Erica @4:18 Hi Erica! Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:14 Drawing blank. Sorry.
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Jelly Bread" by "Booker T and the MGs" Now THIS sounds like Green Onions for sure.
	🥁 ♥ 4:29pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:28 Yes, def a rehash
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Funky16Corners: Billy was 16 when he recorded this
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm doctorjazz: Fun show, dug it, thanks Larry! (Preston is fun to see in the Beatles doc)
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:43 Thanks Doc!
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:41 Incredibly talented at a young age.
	🥁 ♥ 4:45pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:43 It's kind of amazing that he didn't get to be a bigger star sooner. He could sing,dance and play the keys. There's an amazing clip of him on the Ed Sullivan Show circa 1967 singing Agent 00 Soul
	4:45pm CalZone!: Loved that Dave Lewis! And the Billy Preston was super greasy!
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: ↳ CalZone! @4:45 The Dave Lewis is a fave, though it's mixed super weird, with everything but the vocal pushed to one side
	4:50pm CalZone!: Someone needs to do a real comprehensive Dave Lewis comp ...maybe a box set.
	🥁 ♥ 4:51pm Funky16Corners: ↳ CalZone! @4:50 At the very least a 2CD set. He had a lot of great records
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm WLSClark: Some great tunes to study by today, Larry!
	4:52pm bradford: Thanks for sharing such choice sides with us today, Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:52 Glad you dug'em Clark!
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm Sem: Larry, been a fine bit of time travel, thanks so much for putting it together for us. Sweet, sweet stuff. Later, all.
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm Funky16Corners: ↳ bradford @4:52 My pleasure, always, bradford!
	🥁 ♥ 4:53pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Sem @4:52 Thanks, Sem!
	🥁 ♥ 4:53pm Funky16Corners: Make sure to stay tuned for Kip: wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 4:54pm Erica: Funky fun show Larry.
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Yvang: Top notch groovy episode today. Thanks Larry!

	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:34 Well both started out in the 60s haha. Forgot about their R&B/beat period. Also I meant the Pink Floyd became overrated on their later years.
	🥁 ♥ 3:36pm Funky16Corners: Clark, this is a Chicago record. Ever heard it?
	🥁 ♥ 3:38pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Feznecky" by "JC Davis" I can hear where Booker T and the MGs got Green Onions from.
	🥁 ♥ 3:38pm Erica: Lol
	🥁 ♥ 3:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:38 Green Onions was a couple of years before that one
	🥁 ♥ 3:39pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Coming Home Baby" by "Mel Torme" Funky Mel!
	🥁 ♥ 3:40pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:39 Should've checked the date first. Guess it was the other way around then.
	🥁 ♥ 3:47pm Funky16Corners: UNH! AHH!
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm WR: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:47 As you know, Eddie Bo on that vocal.
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @3:50 Oh, I know.
	♥ 4:01pm coelacanth∅: non- reggae Mittoo as late as '68? i did not know.
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm WR: ↳ Song: "Hip Hug" by "Jackie Mittoo" Hearing only a small difference in the rhythm section on this that from the original.
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:01 The rest of the album is pretty reggae, with a few exceptions
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: www.discogs.com...
	🥁 ♥ 4:07pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:36 Sorry Larry. I am listening and groovin but working on genealogy too. Are you talking Wildare express? Never heard of them, sorry. Cool tho to hear!
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:07 No, JC Davis and Feznecky
	♥ 4:17pm Beantown Doug: Finally here in time for some of the live fun.
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm Erica: ↳ Beantown Doug @4:17 Hey Doug!
	🥁 ♥ 4:19pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Beantown Doug @4:17 Hi Doug!
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: Before I mistakenly mistakenly said that Jim Valley had been in the Dynamics. He was in this band, the Viceroys.
	♥ 4:21pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Erica @4:18 Hi Erica! Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:14 Drawing blank. Sorry.
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Jelly Bread" by "Booker T and the MGs" Now THIS sounds like Green Onions for sure.
	🥁 ♥ 4:29pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:28 Yes, def a rehash
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Funky16Corners: Billy was 16 when he recorded this
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm doctorjazz: Fun show, dug it, thanks Larry! (Preston is fun to see in the Beatles doc)
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:43 Thanks Doc!
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:41 Incredibly talented at a young age.
	🥁 ♥ 4:45pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:43 It's kind of amazing that he didn't get to be a bigger star sooner. He could sing,dance and play the keys. There's an amazing clip of him on the Ed Sullivan Show circa 1967 singing Agent 00 Soul
	4:45pm CalZone!: Loved that Dave Lewis! And the Billy Preston was super greasy!
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: ↳ CalZone! @4:45 The Dave Lewis is a fave, though it's mixed super weird, with everything but the vocal pushed to one side
	4:50pm CalZone!: Someone needs to do a real comprehensive Dave Lewis comp ...maybe a box set.
	🥁 ♥ 4:51pm Funky16Corners: ↳ CalZone! @4:50 At the very least a 2CD set. He had a lot of great records
	🥁 ♥ 4:52pm WLSClark: Some great tunes to study by today, Larry!
