Hi guys - Left channel out and low volume
  3:04pm
Cheree July:

Not sure who's streaming this because Don is still in TX & we're not live in studio🤔
Avatar 3:05pm
Kitten Sparkles:

Yeah I know. Weird. Not sure what’s up w that.
Avatar 3:05pm
Debbie Davenport:

Babs said she was overseeing the streaming process.
Avatar 3:06pm
Kitten Sparkles:

Hopefully that problem will resolve.
  3:07pm
Cheree July:

I just saw that earlier in the chat after I commented. Good to hear Underdog by Giorgio again tho!
  3:08pm
Cheree July:

Yea, me & Don ain't sure what up with that.🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️
Avatar 3:09pm
Kitten Sparkles:

Left channel seems a bit distorted.
  3:10pm
Cheree July:

Yeah, it's kinda crackly.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:10pm
DJ Babs:

Yeah, I'm seeing it here on my mixer and the left channel on the recordin is 1/4 lower than right...not sure that's something I can fix on my end. Let me see if I can twiddle things a bit here.
Avatar 3:11pm
Kitten Sparkles:

This song is probably not the best to check distortion levels. That guitar! So cool.
Avatar 3:11pm
Debbie Davenport:

feels more even right now
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:11pm
DJ Babs:

yes, I was gonna say this is a bit of a fuzzbomb to begin with lol
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:12pm
DJ Babs:

k good news I think we are seeing better balance between L and R now on the mixer.
  3:12pm
Cheree July:

YESSS! Action by The Sweet!🤘
Avatar 3:12pm
Debbie Davenport:

Sounds like it here. Thanks Babs.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:13pm
DJ Babs:

no problemoooo!
Avatar 3:13pm
Kitten Sparkles:

Sounds a bit better now, yes?
Avatar 3:14pm
Kitten Sparkles:

Thus song is easier to gauge that stuff during.
  3:14pm
Cheree July:

Too bad Solid Gold dancers weren't a thing yet when the Sweet recorded this. This would've been ideal for them to dance to💃

They would have made it work...that's the power of the solid gold dancers LOL

↳ Song: "I Can Do It" by "Rubettes"
Sounds great!

Debbie Davenport:

↳ Cheree July @3:14
My friend's big sister was a Solid Gold dancer. That's where I learned I could stick my finger down my throat to help with weight loss. That gal was super skinny yet she still was on the edge of being too heavy for tv.

The closest thing the 70s had was Ballet Zoom, I guess?
Avatar 3:19pm
Kitten Sparkles:

Yeah, my DJ mixer has seen better days - it was only $25: tho
  3:19pm
Cheree July:

Whoa, that's pretty messed up & sad to hear Debbie.

It seemed common. we used to do it at home and at church potlucks.

Ya get what you pay for, Don.

Kitten Sparkles:

Sometimes.

Oh dear god, Debbie.
Avatar 3:22pm
Debbie Davenport:

I can only guess how much pressure people in movies and television encounter. At least they don't do potato clauses anymore. Or perhaps they still do it but in a nicer way. I had a roommate who was a model for Sebastian hair products. she wasn't allowed to cut her hair while under contract.

Debbie Davenport:

↳ Song: "Anna Laura Lee" by "Yellow Taxi"
What an enjoyable song intro.
  3:25pm
Cheree July:

Weird😵‍💫
  3:29pm
Cheree July:

I wonder if Taxi was singing Anna Laura Lee as a bubblegum/popsych double entendre for amphetamine aka meth?😵‍💫🤯🫨
Avatar 3:32pm
Debbie Davenport:

Do people call it that? I didn't know. I always just said speed.
The song does have a nice zoomy feel to it.
Avatar 3:34pm
Debbie Davenport:

You're right Don. It is interesting.
Avatar 3:44pm
Debbie Davenport:

Ha! "Solid Gold!" like our conversation Cheree.
Avatar 3:45pm
Debbie Davenport:

I've wanted this Angelo and 18 record for a long time. I don't find it.
  3:54pm
Cheree July:

Showed Don the video about how the arranger behind The Rah Band came up with this song. It's actually just wah wah pedals & guitar!

Wait a minute, is this the UK band The Vibrators with the Pure Mania album with songs like "Baby, Baby"?

Did spunky spider play? If so I missed it.

Spunky Spider that is another one I've been wanting for years but never see it for sale.

Fuck it! If I still have to keep waiting for the vinyl, I will get a placeholder. Electric Asylum CD.

I’m working rn, so it’s tough to keep on it.

↳ Song: "That’s the Way a Woman Is" by "The Messengers"
I love how this song was big in Japan. I have heard at least two Japanese acts do a cover of this song.
Avatar 4:55pm
Debbie Davenport:

↳ Mr. Oxford @4:52
I remember reading it was in a Japanese commercial or something.
Avatar 4:56pm
Debbie Davenport:

I think that helps bands. I found out about Free Design that way. They were like in a zillow ad on tv. It's cheesy accapella music, but that Love You song is so good!
Avatar 4:57pm
Mr. Oxford:

↳ Debbie Davenport @4:55
That's interesting. I am going to see if I can find the commercial online.

Here is a Japanese cover by The Chirps: www.youtube.com...

I might be remembering it wrong. I do remember thinking, oh wow. they were popular over there. after reading it.
Avatar 5:00pm
Debbie Davenport:

wikipedia probably clarifies it.
Avatar 5:00pm
Mr. Oxford:

↳ Debbie Davenport @4:59
Well either way, it was definitely big in Japan. Not sure if I can trust Wikipedia fully though as it can be inaccurate sometimes :)

I should be careful when I do hashtags for instagram from there!
