	12:06am Destroit: Hello Joe and all the good people. Glad to be here.
	12:08am Joe McG: Hey, Destroit. What are you destroiting this evening?
	12:12am Destroit: My general health Joe, gorging on chocolate and cheese :)
	12:13am Joe McG: How overWeening of you!
	12:16am Holly in NC: Hello Joe & Destroit! Will be quiet, listening on my android Samsung, happily pissing Apple off & still horrid @ texting :-) Cheese here too! La Serena, Springbrook Tarentaise, Rogue Caveman, oh yeah. Joe, will you be honoring Neil Armstrong?
	12:16am anne: hey Joe!!
	12:17am Destroit: Ha, Good lord that was awful.
	12:18am Destroit: Hello holly!
	12:18am Joe McG: Hey, Holly! Good music for androids right now. No plans to honor Neil--I didn't know he was dead until Blumin said so! Hey, Anne! Anne from Chi-town?
	12:21am Destroit: Just to clarify, weening reference=awful. Music is nice so far Joe!
	12:24am Joe McG: Thanks, Destroit! I know my puns are rotten, but I can't help it!
	12:31am jeff-m: evening man
	12:32am Joe McG: Hey, Jeff! Pardon my indecision!
	12:32am Holly in NC: Really like this new Limiñanas lp.
	12:36am Destroit: Dies anyone else think that the liminanas track sounds like the Beatles "if I needed someone"?
	12:44am Joe McG: I have to hear it again to decide, I think.
	1:05am Destroit: This lounge bossanova groove is great, keep Movin'
	1:10am Matt from Springfield: All hail those 3 Kings of Terepia! Hello Joe and everyone!
	1:11am Joe McG: Hey, Matt! How do you fare?
	1:11am KP: Hey, Joe.
	1:12am Joe McG: Hey, KP. What ho!
	1:12am Matt from Springfield: Fare? No charge! The Spanish cava I'm sipping tonight is more than fair however!
	1:19am Joe McG: What's a cava, Matt?
	1:21am Matt from Springfield: Spanish "champagne", sparkling wine. Nice, affordable, and if you like champagne really BRUT, this is a good one to have.
	1:23am Joe McG: Wow, champagne! Special occasion?
	1:25am Matt from Springfield: Naw, just like bubbly! :) There's another finer champagne I have saved in case of really special occasions.
	1:26am KP: Champagne? And me out of diet coke!
	1:30am Matt from Springfield: Oooh, hypnotizing vibes in the background! @KP: Find some more bubbly! Beer is acceptable :)
	1:33am KP: Don't want to bum you out but beer was long time ago. Closest thing to it is listening to Joe.
	1:37am Holly in NC: I can't believe you have this 7in! How very wonderful!
	1:37am Matt from Springfield: Listening to Joe at a steady rate will zone you out more and more with each minute.
	1:38am Matt from Springfield: And Johnny Bond continues in full, as promised! Hello there Holly!
	1:38am KP: West-Bryant, unbelievable bubba,
	1:39am Joe McG: @Holly: A bit scratched up, unfortunately! @Matt: I still had it in my bag, and I remember you asked!
	1:39am Holly in NC: Hi Matt!
	1:41am Matt from Springfield: Wooooo! That makes us proud Drunks! :D Thanks Joe!
	1:46am Joe McG: You bet, Matt. One for the Elwood P. Dowds.
	1:47am KP: Trane!
	1:51am Joe McG: Also scratchy, but the horns come through loud and clear!
	1:52am Matt from Springfield: Loud and clear! What a theme!
	1:56am Dean: Listening in Hong Kong - excellent way to start the day
	1:57am Joe McG: Nice! Welcome, Dean!
	1:58am KP: Arkade? Any substantive links? for us to find out?
	1:59am Joe McG: @KP: It's a tough one to research. Just a lot of hits for video games!
	2:00am Joe McG: Arkade is probably a Steve Barri concoction: he produced it and cowrote it with Price and Walsh.
	2:00am KP: Link to the film "Tender Mercies."
	2:00am Joe McG: Oh, and Roger Nichols engineered it with Phil Kaye! Very informative label!
	2:02am KP: Oddly enough we were going use "Middle of the Road" but it was taken.
	2:02am KP: Oddly enough we were going use "Middle of the Road" but it was taken.
	2:03am Matt from Springfield: @Joe: Ask Clay Pigeon about Arkade! I see it's a Dunhill-ABC record, Clay has talked extensively about the style of that label and the bands on it.
	2:10am KP: guitar lightning is too much!
	2:11am Matt from Springfield: Looking forward to that Radio Free Culture.
	2:11am Matt from Springfield: I remember Scott McKenzie. A tribute to his other songs would be fantastic--I haven't heard anything else by him and would like to learn.
	2:15am KP: What a great voice.
	2:17am KP: There's a young woman singer from UK (via Pakistan, i think) named Rumer. She just put out an album and her cover of this is best thing on it. but all cool. She sounds exactly like Karen Carpenter.
	2:19am KP: The arrangements and choice of songs are like the Carpenters too. It's sort of mesmerizing.
	2:20am Matt from Springfield: Just "Rumer"? Love Karen and her style of vocals, I need to check Rumer out!
	2:24am KP: Recommend very highly. Esp that PF Sloan song.
	2:25am Matt from Springfield: Here's another P.F. Sloan, as sung by The Grass Roots, orig established by PF as a vehicle to record and release his songs! Thanks for the rec, KP.
	2:25am KP: OK "PF Sloane" is a song title that is entirely a real person's name. I can only think of "Alex Chilton" as being same way.
	2:27am Joe McG: There's a fun game: name all of the songs named after rock stars. Me first: "Deborah Harry" by Family Fodder.
	2:30am Matt from Springfield: Billy Bragg "Levi Stubb's Tears"
	2:31am Matt from Springfield: Weezer "Buddy Holly"
	2:32am KP: Right but never heard of that one. i just realized it would have to be be real people in rock. Bob Dylan alone has about 30 civil rights songs with real names as titles.
	2:32am Joe McG: American Music Club: "Johnny Mathis' Feet."
	2:32am Matt from Springfield: @KP: Ballads of, Stories of, Lonesome Deaths of...
	2:33am KP: "Buddy Holy" fits, category is just the name.
	2:34am KP: Matt, yeah all that cheery stuff.
	2:35am Marmalade Kitty: morning Joe, everyone. I kinda recognise that childrens rhyme fromk somewhere..
	2:36am Matt from Springfield: Wow, is this the duo usually known as Chad & Jeremy?? Never knew they went into Baroque psychedelia in the mid 60s!!
	2:36am Matt from Springfield: Hiya Kitty! You mean the "cabbages and kings" intro? That was from "The Walrus and The Carpenter" by Lewis Carroll!
	2:38am Marmalade Kitty: fromk? ..thanks Matt! :)
	2:41am Matt from Springfield: Lewis C. was the original "Go ask Alice"! :) Don't know what was going through his mind, or what he was imbibing, but what an early psychedelic satirist and fantasy writer!
	2:48am KP: Did you read "Papa john,' that probably has more insight into PF Sloane.
	2:52am KP: This is already great.
	2:56am Holly in NC: Most excellent. Thanks Joe!
	2:57am KP: hmmm unanticipated Phil Schaap turn.
	2:57am Joe McG: Thanks for listening, everyone! See you next week!
	2:58am Matt from Springfield: So tranced-out from this...rude awakening when the show ends! Thanks Joe for another amazing episode! Have a good night KP, Holly, Kitty and everyone else grooving along to the music!
	2:58am KP: Thank you!
	3:00am Marmalade Kitty: Thanks Joe! Good night peeps!
