	12:03pm V Priceless: Hi Tony! Happy Twosday!
	12:03pm Tony Coulter: Hola, DCE and James!
	🥁 12:03pm listener james from westwood: Bee Gees are always nice at the top of the show.
	12:04pm Tony Coulter: ... and greets to V Priceless as well!
	12:07pm steve: hey Tony and friends
	12:08pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Steve!
	12:10pm DCE: it occurs to me that I've never actually heard Sticky Fingers all the way through. How is that possible?
	12:11pm Michael: Hey now Tony. And my fellow listeners. Finally got my swag and spun your disc this morn at work. Lotsa fun that so thanks!
	12:12pm northguineahills: That's a tough one DCE. I have on vinyl, and I'm not the biggest Stones fan.
	12:13pm Dean: @DCE: Meaning you've not heard all of the songs, or you've never listened to it top to bottom? I, too, have on vinyl, an early acquisition.
	12:13pm DCE: I was always kind of skeptical of the Stones--besides Goats Head Soup which I loved instantly. Not sure why.
	12:13pm DCE: I've never heard the album. I've heard what's been on the radio and figgered "eh, I've heard it all sorta!"
	12:14pm Tony Coulter: @ Michael: Glad you enjoyed it! (And greets!) Hola hey hello, Dean!
	12:14pm Dean: As this track started, I mistakenly thought we were being treated to "Winter" off GHS. No, I'd have to take SF or EOMS over GHS, I'm afraid.
	12:15pm Tony Coulter: Greets too to NGH!
	12:15pm Rich in Washington: The Stones are one of those bands where I first became aware of the difference in terms of music between singles and album cuts - and how radio stations played the dullest material from a given band.
	12:16pm Rich in Washington: Hellowww.. Tony!
	12:16pm Tony Coulter: Elbow, Rich!!
	🥁 12:17pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Peace be witchu.
	12:17pm Rich in Washington: Sure, Why not? Everyone else does..
	12:18pm Tony Coulter: Rev. Turnip!
	12:18pm V Priceless: 'tron!
	12:19pm Tony Coulter: This is the "American bands who kind of sound like Yes" part of the show.
	12:19pm DCE: nice!
	12:20pm Rich in Washington: It's kind of Lark's Tonguish, too
	12:22pm Tony Coulter: w/ a bit of Gentle Giant too -- the usual suspects.
	12:22pm Tailored Brian: Listen to Her Satanic Majesty Request & Exile on Main St. Clay P. Is now Requesting Starcastle.
	12:23pm Dean: I'd say this is the "American bands who sound like European bands [e.g., Druid] who kind of sound like Yes" part of the show.
	12:23pm DCE: Starcastle! I second the motion
	12:25pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Tailored Brian!
	12:25pm Dean: Heck, yeah, Starcastle! Throw in an epic Angel tune, too.
	12:26pm DCE: I love these ridiculously pompous lyrics!
	12:27pm Tony Coulter: Both of those will be on my long-planed AOR prog show, for sure. But there is more American prog ahead today -- have no fear.
	12:27pm Tony Coulter: Both of those = Starcastle and Angel
	🥁 12:27pm listener james from westwood: Outstanding. Calm sounds are my jam today.
	12:28pm V Priceless: Yay!!
	12:28pm Dean: Loudest concerts in my experience: Yes at Anaheim Stadium, Angel at Santa Monica Civic, Meshuggah at the Pound.
	🥁 12:32pm Rev. Turnip Druid: stepped away from the world for a minute. Loudest show? uh........ motorhead in weedsport NY. No contest.
	12:33pm Andrew Waterloo: Have to agree with Motorhead. The next loudest would have been METZ in a tiny basement.
	12:33pm steve: i love the flavor of emerging prog
	12:35pm βrian: Is Renaissance on the list?
	🥁 12:35pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ....and seeing "METZ" made me think of Merzbow at the DC Arts Center in about 1989 or 1990. Second loudest giggy ever.
	12:36pm DCE: and another vote for Renaissance, and some Camel while you're in the prog library
	12:37pm Tony Coulter: Hey Andrew & βrian! I think I spot a Camel on today's distant horizon....
	12:38pm northguineahills: I've seen Merzbow a few times, yes, those were effin' loud awesome shows.
	12:38pm Ear Ache: Mahavishnu Orchestra-Birds Of Fire /ELP-Brain Salad Surgery/in Quad Tours Both fantastic.
	🥁 12:38pm Rev. Turnip Druid: speaking of prog goodies, believe it or not there's a new Clearlight release this year. With Paul Sears (of Muffins fame) & Hillage & other lovelies.
	12:39pm Tony Coulter: Heya Ear Ache! @ Turnip: Interesting! Paul Sears is one of my favorite drummers.
	12:40pm βrian: Oh, how Annie Haslam would set my heart to fluttering ...
	12:40pm Dean: Yes's (Moraz at the helm) and Angel's piercing synthesizers took the volume over the top for those shows. Great Clearlight news!
	12:43pm V Priceless: any word on Clearlight still using Mellotrons?
	🥁 12:43pm Rev. Turnip Druid: TC: Had the obscene pleasure to play a set with Paul's project Thee Maximalists a few years back. With fellow Muffin Newhouse & Keith Macksoud (Present) & Elliot Levin (philly free jazz sax) -- a bucket-list item right there...
	12:44pm delired chameleon: Is this Infinite Symphony by Clearlight S.?
	🥁 12:46pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @chameleon: the one I speak of is "impressionist symphony" - deets: www.progarchives.com...
	12:48pm Tony Coulter: Talking about Chameleons....
	12:49pm Dean: Prog Archives also has a great account of Albatross written by the band's former engineer.
	12:50pm Tony Coulter: Yeah -- I saw that. Very interesting, actually.
	12:50pm Dean: Does Le Orme's Smogmagica count as "American" prog?
	12:52pm Tony Coulter: Was that one recorded in the U.S. or sumpin? Or are the lyrics about the U.S. maybe? Can't recall either way.
	12:54pm Tony Coulter: OK -- I may have to rein in the proggy-prog for a bit. Don't want to go into sugar shock....
	12:54pm Dean: Yes, Los Angeles (opening track title). There's a tribute to Laserium, too, which had recently begun operation at Griffith Park Observatory, synched to Pink Floyd.
	12:55pm Dean: I.e., recorded in AND about L.A.
	12:57pm βrian: What, no Yup?
	12:57pm delired chameleon: Go R.I.O./Zeuhl rules!
	12:57pm Santos L Halper: Loving the faux yes Tony. Chameleon esp are clearly Squire/Howe worshippers. And why not?
	🥁 12:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: speaking of Present (or Univers Zero, etc), that's why the good lord gave us RIO, to ward off the sugar-shock whilst still feasting on th'prog...
	🥁 12:59pm Rev. Turnip Druid: or, what chameleon said!
	12:59pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Santos L! Methinks they liked their ELP too.
	1:01pm Tony Coulter: Here's an interesting prog list: rateyourmusic.com...
	1:01pm Rich in Washington: Tetsu is a good antidote for Prog-Sugar-Shock
	🥁 1:04pm listener james from westwood: "Prog Rock Sugar Shock" sounds like a candidate for a Marathon-premium CD title.
	🥁 1:05pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Hell yes! LJfW has it! Make it so! I'll pledge now!
	1:06pm Andrew Waterloo: It sounds like something an evil villain would do to you.
	1:09pm Dean: A fun list! Symphonic Slam...haven't thought about them in a while. And there's a note about Gabriel Bondage, another one I've owned, sold, and forgotten. But most of those bands are brand new to me.
	1:09pm Tony Coulter: Better watch out -- I may just do what James suggests!
	1:12pm holland oats: yeah danielson!!
	🥁 1:12pm listener james from westwood: Hee! I can only imagine its track listing.
	1:14pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, Holland O.! By the way, Danielson was managed by FMU's Robin Edgerton....
	1:16pm northguineahills: Yeah, I always dug danielson as well.
	1:17pm Rich in Washington: I was just thinking of this album today.
	1:18pm holland oats: them FMUers are everywhere
	1:19pm Tony Coulter: The Danielson documentary is excellent.
	1:19pm northguineahills: Isn't there a new Danielson Family w/ Jad Fair album out?
	1:19pm holland oats: (hehe an ex gf o' mine is in that)
	1:20pm Tony Coulter: The prog is back -- couldn't keep it down....
	1:23pm Andrew Waterloo: Ah, Baroque prog?
	1:24pm Captain Obvious: Tomsix =Love of Gentle Giant!
	1:26pm Tony Coulter: @ Captain O: That's for sure, on that track!
	1:26pm dc waters: This (Tomsix) is most excellent.
	1:27pm Tony Coulter: Heya, DC! Glad you like it!
	1:31pm Tony Coulter: This one goes out to Clay Pigeon....
	1:32pm Dean: What is the significance of Heratius as alias?
	1:35pm Captain Obvious: Dirt Weed grows freely in Kansas. I spent my summer youth there.
	1:36pm DCE: UFO, take me away!
	1:36pm Tony Coulter: @ Dean: None, really. Had to come up with a user name no one else had claimed (tho, of course, I am a big fan of the band Heratius).
	🥁 1:38pm listener james from westwood: Towering first half, Tony!
	1:38pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, James!!
	1:39pm DCE: oh my, look at the membership chart of UFO on wiki! en.wikipedia.org...
	1:43pm holland oats: seen the sugarcube vid tony?
	1:44pm Tony Coulter: @ Holland Oats: Nope. Is it a good one?
	1:44pm holland oats: oh quite
	1:47pm northguineahills: YLT can do no wrong
	1:48pm Santos L Halper: Relistening to all the YLT records in order; reached this one just a couple days ago
	1:48pm fred: @DCE: impressive... Mark E Smith might feel threatened into firing a few lineups, just to be safe
	1:48pm holland oats: or hiring jason bonham
	1:50pm Santos L Halper: @ngh: yep, not too many bands that consistently good for so long
	1:51pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Fred!
	1:51pm northguineahills: Ok, I'm going to enjoy my yakisoba. Thanks Tony. Today's show was curiously fun!
	1:52pm Tony Coulter: Cheers, NGH!
	1:54pm Dean: Random Yes stuff just now on Yahoo: https://music.yahoo.com/photos/just-say-yes-the-prog-rock-band-s-best-album-covers-1408403733-slideshow/ Huh?
	1:54pm V Priceless: I hear xtc here...
	1:55pm fred: Tony, I'm on vacation today, a rare opportunity to catch part of your show. I think I should try harder to do that in the future (Charlene Darling recommended your show)
	2:00pm DCE: Lodger is another classic album I've never actually heard!
	2:00pm Tony Coulter: @ Fred: Glad you're enjoying the goings-on! Hello to Charlene!
	2:01pm Rich in Washington: I am now sharing an office with someone. Someone who doesn't like ANY Bowie. Not any phase of his career. Nothing. Not sure if this is tenable.
	2:01pm Rich in Washington: I always thought this song sounded like a Neu song.
	2:02pm Tony Coulter: @ Rich: Definitely! It's got that Neu beat.
	2:02pm DCE: untenable, Rich!
	2:03pm Captain Obvious: Check out 5 Years-Bowie film doc. of his work in the70's & early 80's!
	2:04pm Rich in Washington: SPIRES!
	2:05pm Dean: Heh, Posh Boy. He was a curious cat. I was working a record store where F-Word made an in-store appearance to promote their LP. No performance, just appearance.
	2:05pm fred: @Rich: What does that person like? Bowie covered so much ground there's a chance to save that lost soul
	2:09pm Tony Coulter: Here's a prog/new wave hybrid for you....
	2:09pm V Priceless: @ Rich - amazing. and here I'm a person who can't comprehend life without DB.
	2:20pm Dean: Howard Werth recorded for Dangerhouse Records in the late '70s.
	2:20pm Rich in Washington: He once told me - 'Everything after 1990 SUCKS!'
	2:21pm Rich in Washington: I loved those Howard Werth/Dangerhouse singles. He reminded me of early Eno.
	2:21pm Tony Coulter: Who did: DB or HW? (Or God.)
	2:21pm Tony Coulter: Guess you answered my question....
	2:23pm Tony Coulter: Chicago goes Zappa!
	2:24pm Dean: More than a whiff of Bacharach, too.
	2:25pm Rich in Washington: @Tony: my office mate. Nothing after 1990 is any good, according to him.
	2:25pm Rich in Washington: Cubemate claimed to be intrigued by my description of Throbbing Gristle but got about 10 seconds into their Greatest Hits CD and took it off and gave it back without comment.
	2:26pm DCE: yeah, TC, I was gonna say that Chicago really had a Peaches en Regalia kind of feel to it
	2:28pm Santos L Halper: Chicago also did "A Hit by Varese". More FZ conceptual continuity
	2:32pm fred: @Rich: your coworker might be suffering from Youth Withdrawal Syndrome, aka aging. YWS has no known cure, though a steady diet of live shows has shown promise in poorly controlled tests. Keili's show is not indicated unless desperate measures are called for
	2:33pm DCE: right you are, fred
	2:35pm Tony Coulter: Here's that Camel you ordered....
	2:35pm Dean: There's your Camel. Now for some Cafe Jacques?
	2:35pm DCE: I ordered it stir-fried, dammit!
	2:36pm DCE: but I'll eat it any way you serve it
	2:37pm Tony Coulter: @ Dean: Cafe Jacques -- now there's a band I've never heard.
	2:38pm Dean: Do seek them out, and by "them" I mean the old LPs, not the reformed touring version of the band. Phil Collins appears on one of their records to vocalize. Rupert Holmes produced them. Proggy, jazzy, New Age-y MOR AOR.
	2:38pm Rich in Washington: @Fred: I only this week became acquainted with Keili's show and at first I was confused and scared. I was familiar with less than 5% of the bands played there. I felt like a codger who wandered out of the gated retirement trailer park. After a while, it was exciting. It was like tuning into a punk rock show for the first time, etc..
	2:39pm Rich in Washington: I think death starts when you no longer open yourself up to new ideas. Try a new salad dressing, fercrhissake!
	2:40pm Dean: No: Rupert Hine. Yeesh. Also featured Geoff Richardson (Caravan).
	2:41pm DCE: right you are, Rich!
	2:42pm Stanley: I used to like Camel but they gave me the hump.
	2:45pm Tony Coulter: Hey Stanley! Sorry to hear you were dry-humped by a camel. Hope you've recovered.
	2:47pm Stanley: Recovered? Ha!
	2:52pm fred: Wow, this John Adams shares percussive strings ideas with Steve Reich's Violin Phase, Octet, and 18. Not in a bad way at all, a different take, very interesting. I want this record! (I guess one could argue the whole percussive string thing came from Stravinsky)
	2:53pm V Priceless: cool show, TC - thanks!
	2:55pm Dean: I'm not an Adams fan, either, but these shorter orchestral pieces live can be a lot of fun. Try "Shaker Loops" and "Short Ride in a Fast Machine."
	2:58pm Tony Coulter: Thanks for showing up, everybody! See you next time!!
	🥁 2:58pm listener james from westwood: Many thanks, Tony, this show hit the spot!
	2:58pm DCE: great stuff TC!
	3:01pm Michael: Thanks Tony - fun show!
	3:28pm Jeff Golick: Belated thanks for a fab show, TC!

	12:40pm Dean: Yes's (Moraz at the helm) and Angel's piercing synthesizers took the volume over the top for those shows. Great Clearlight news!
	12:43pm V Priceless: any word on Clearlight still using Mellotrons?
	🥁 12:43pm Rev. Turnip Druid: TC: Had the obscene pleasure to play a set with Paul's project Thee Maximalists a few years back. With fellow Muffin Newhouse & Keith Macksoud (Present) & Elliot Levin (philly free jazz sax) -- a bucket-list item right there...
	12:44pm delired chameleon: Is this Infinite Symphony by Clearlight S.?
	🥁 12:46pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @chameleon: the one I speak of is "impressionist symphony" - deets: www.progarchives.com...
	12:48pm Tony Coulter: Talking about Chameleons....
	12:49pm Dean: Prog Archives also has a great account of Albatross written by the band's former engineer.
	12:50pm Tony Coulter: Yeah -- I saw that. Very interesting, actually.
	12:50pm Dean: Does Le Orme's Smogmagica count as "American" prog?
	12:52pm Tony Coulter: Was that one recorded in the U.S. or sumpin? Or are the lyrics about the U.S. maybe? Can't recall either way.
	12:54pm Tony Coulter: OK -- I may have to rein in the proggy-prog for a bit. Don't want to go into sugar shock....
	12:54pm Dean: Yes, Los Angeles (opening track title). There's a tribute to Laserium, too, which had recently begun operation at Griffith Park Observatory, synched to Pink Floyd.
	12:55pm Dean: I.e., recorded in AND about L.A.
	12:57pm βrian: What, no Yup?
	12:57pm delired chameleon: Go R.I.O./Zeuhl rules!
	12:57pm Santos L Halper: Loving the faux yes Tony. Chameleon esp are clearly Squire/Howe worshippers. And why not?
	🥁 12:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: speaking of Present (or Univers Zero, etc), that's why the good lord gave us RIO, to ward off the sugar-shock whilst still feasting on th'prog...
	🥁 12:59pm Rev. Turnip Druid: or, what chameleon said!
	12:59pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Santos L! Methinks they liked their ELP too.
	1:01pm Tony Coulter: Here's an interesting prog list: rateyourmusic.com...
	1:01pm Rich in Washington: Tetsu is a good antidote for Prog-Sugar-Shock
	🥁 1:04pm listener james from westwood: "Prog Rock Sugar Shock" sounds like a candidate for a Marathon-premium CD title.
	🥁 1:05pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Hell yes! LJfW has it! Make it so! I'll pledge now!
	1:06pm Andrew Waterloo: It sounds like something an evil villain would do to you.
	1:09pm Dean: A fun list! Symphonic Slam...haven't thought about them in a while. And there's a note about Gabriel Bondage, another one I've owned, sold, and forgotten. But most of those bands are brand new to me.
	1:09pm Tony Coulter: Better watch out -- I may just do what James suggests!
	1:12pm holland oats: yeah danielson!!
	🥁 1:12pm listener james from westwood: Hee! I can only imagine its track listing.
	1:14pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, Holland O.! By the way, Danielson was managed by FMU's Robin Edgerton....
	1:16pm northguineahills: Yeah, I always dug danielson as well.
	1:17pm Rich in Washington: I was just thinking of this album today.
	1:18pm holland oats: them FMUers are everywhere
	1:19pm Tony Coulter: The Danielson documentary is excellent.
	1:19pm northguineahills: Isn't there a new Danielson Family w/ Jad Fair album out?
	1:19pm holland oats: (hehe an ex gf o' mine is in that)
	1:20pm Tony Coulter: The prog is back -- couldn't keep it down....
	1:23pm Andrew Waterloo: Ah, Baroque prog?
	1:24pm Captain Obvious: Tomsix =Love of Gentle Giant!
	1:26pm Tony Coulter: @ Captain O: That's for sure, on that track!
	1:26pm dc waters: This (Tomsix) is most excellent.
	1:27pm Tony Coulter: Heya, DC! Glad you like it!
	1:31pm Tony Coulter: This one goes out to Clay Pigeon....
	1:32pm Dean: What is the significance of Heratius as alias?
	1:35pm Captain Obvious: Dirt Weed grows freely in Kansas. I spent my summer youth there.
	1:36pm DCE: UFO, take me away!
	1:36pm Tony Coulter: @ Dean: None, really. Had to come up with a user name no one else had claimed (tho, of course, I am a big fan of the band Heratius).
	🥁 1:38pm listener james from westwood: Towering first half, Tony!
	1:38pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, James!!
	1:39pm DCE: oh my, look at the membership chart of UFO on wiki! en.wikipedia.org...
	1:43pm holland oats: seen the sugarcube vid tony?
	1:44pm Tony Coulter: @ Holland Oats: Nope. Is it a good one?
	1:44pm holland oats: oh quite
	1:47pm northguineahills: YLT can do no wrong
	1:48pm Santos L Halper: Relistening to all the YLT records in order; reached this one just a couple days ago
	1:48pm fred: @DCE: impressive... Mark E Smith might feel threatened into firing a few lineups, just to be safe
	1:48pm holland oats: or hiring jason bonham
	1:50pm Santos L Halper: @ngh: yep, not too many bands that consistently good for so long
	1:51pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Fred!
	1:51pm northguineahills: Ok, I'm going to enjoy my yakisoba. Thanks Tony. Today's show was curiously fun!
	1:52pm Tony Coulter: Cheers, NGH!
	1:54pm Dean: Random Yes stuff just now on Yahoo: https://music.yahoo.com/photos/just-say-yes-the-prog-rock-band-s-best-album-covers-1408403733-slideshow/ Huh?
	1:54pm V Priceless: I hear xtc here...
	1:55pm fred: Tony, I'm on vacation today, a rare opportunity to catch part of your show. I think I should try harder to do that in the future (Charlene Darling recommended your show)
	2:00pm DCE: Lodger is another classic album I've never actually heard!
	2:00pm Tony Coulter: @ Fred: Glad you're enjoying the goings-on! Hello to Charlene!
	2:01pm Rich in Washington: I am now sharing an office with someone. Someone who doesn't like ANY Bowie. Not any phase of his career. Nothing. Not sure if this is tenable.
	2:01pm Rich in Washington: I always thought this song sounded like a Neu song.
	2:02pm Tony Coulter: @ Rich: Definitely! It's got that Neu beat.
	2:02pm DCE: untenable, Rich!
	2:03pm Captain Obvious: Check out 5 Years-Bowie film doc. of his work in the70's & early 80's!
	2:04pm Rich in Washington: SPIRES!
	2:05pm Dean: Heh, Posh Boy. He was a curious cat. I was working a record store where F-Word made an in-store appearance to promote their LP. No performance, just appearance.
	2:05pm fred: @Rich: What does that person like? Bowie covered so much ground there's a chance to save that lost soul
	2:09pm Tony Coulter: Here's a prog/new wave hybrid for you....
	2:09pm V Priceless: @ Rich - amazing. and here I'm a person who can't comprehend life without DB.
	2:20pm Dean: Howard Werth recorded for Dangerhouse Records in the late '70s.
	2:20pm Rich in Washington: He once told me - 'Everything after 1990 SUCKS!'
	2:21pm Rich in Washington: I loved those Howard Werth/Dangerhouse singles. He reminded me of early Eno.
	2:21pm Tony Coulter: Who did: DB or HW? (Or God.)
	2:21pm Tony Coulter: Guess you answered my question....
	2:23pm Tony Coulter: Chicago goes Zappa!
	2:24pm Dean: More than a whiff of Bacharach, too.
	2:25pm Rich in Washington: @Tony: my office mate. Nothing after 1990 is any good, according to him.
	2:25pm Rich in Washington: Cubemate claimed to be intrigued by my description of Throbbing Gristle but got about 10 seconds into their Greatest Hits CD and took it off and gave it back without comment.
	2:26pm DCE: yeah, TC, I was gonna say that Chicago really had a Peaches en Regalia kind of feel to it
	2:28pm Santos L Halper: Chicago also did "A Hit by Varese". More FZ conceptual continuity
	2:32pm fred: @Rich: your coworker might be suffering from Youth Withdrawal Syndrome, aka aging. YWS has no known cure, though a steady diet of live shows has shown promise in poorly controlled tests. Keili's show is not indicated unless desperate measures are called for
	2:33pm DCE: right you are, fred
	2:35pm Tony Coulter: Here's that Camel you ordered....
	2:35pm Dean: There's your Camel. Now for some Cafe Jacques?
	2:35pm DCE: I ordered it stir-fried, dammit!
	2:36pm DCE: but I'll eat it any way you serve it
	2:37pm Tony Coulter: @ Dean: Cafe Jacques -- now there's a band I've never heard.
	2:38pm Dean: Do seek them out, and by "them" I mean the old LPs, not the reformed touring version of the band. Phil Collins appears on one of their records to vocalize. Rupert Holmes produced them. Proggy, jazzy, New Age-y MOR AOR.
	2:38pm Rich in Washington: @Fred: I only this week became acquainted with Keili's show and at first I was confused and scared. I was familiar with less than 5% of the bands played there. I felt like a codger who wandered out of the gated retirement trailer park. After a while, it was exciting. It was like tuning into a punk rock show for the first time, etc..
	2:39pm Rich in Washington: I think death starts when you no longer open yourself up to new ideas. Try a new salad dressing, fercrhissake!
	2:40pm Dean: No: Rupert Hine. Yeesh. Also featured Geoff Richardson (Caravan).
	2:41pm DCE: right you are, Rich!
	2:42pm Stanley: I used to like Camel but they gave me the hump.
	2:45pm Tony Coulter: Hey Stanley! Sorry to hear you were dry-humped by a camel. Hope you've recovered.
	2:47pm Stanley: Recovered? Ha!
	2:52pm fred: Wow, this John Adams shares percussive strings ideas with Steve Reich's Violin Phase, Octet, and 18. Not in a bad way at all, a different take, very interesting. I want this record! (I guess one could argue the whole percussive string thing came from Stravinsky)
	2:53pm V Priceless: cool show, TC - thanks!
	2:55pm Dean: I'm not an Adams fan, either, but these shorter orchestral pieces live can be a lot of fun. Try "Shaker Loops" and "Short Ride in a Fast Machine."
	2:58pm Tony Coulter: Thanks for showing up, everybody! See you next time!!
	🥁 2:58pm listener james from westwood: Many thanks, Tony, this show hit the spot!
	2:58pm DCE: great stuff TC!
	3:01pm Michael: Thanks Tony - fun show!
	3:28pm Jeff Golick: Belated thanks for a fab show, TC!
