	2:35pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey Lisab....We were their two...fun daze!!!!!!!
	👻 2:36pm MelaniR: ↳ Lisab @2:33 Yes! I got to work with Ian Dury who I loved.
	2:37pm AtlanticTunnel: First time I met W Eric was in Loudbourgh near Scotland on the 2nd stiff tour with L. Lovich
	2:38pm Lilith212: ↳ AtlanticTunnel @2:37 Awesome!
	2:40pm Lilith212: Eras of Judgement is a fantastic term
	2:41pm Lisab: ↳ MelaniR @2:36 So cool Melani he was amazing
	2:42pm Lisab: Eric is a smart dude
	👻 2:42pm MelaniR: ↳ Lilith212 @2:38 You say awesome because you weren't on the bus up to and back from Loughborough! We almost missed our flight home the next day!
	2:42pm Lilith212: ↳ Lisab @2:42 Indeed!
	2:43pm Ms.Amanda: He's a talker!!! :) double episode
	2:44pm Leigh Gregory: Diggin' it today Edward!!! Can't be on for too long anymore on Sundays but brilliant to hear the interview and tunes from Wreckless Eric!!!
	2:44pm Double R: ↳ Song: "Whole Wide World..........." by "Wreckless Ericl" Nick Lowe's production always stands out.
	2:44pm AtlanticTunnel: Ha ha....Eric is a character!!!!!!!!
	2:45pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey Leigh....Did you check out ian?
	2:45pm AtlanticTunnel: at this time anything Nick touched was golden!!!!!
	2:46pm Double R: ↳ AtlanticTunnel @2:45 Very true
	2:47pm Double R: I think it's very cool of Eric to sometimes just play bass in his wife's band. He let's Amy Rigby take the spotlight and do her thing. He sits back there and backs her up. Very impressive that he can just support his wife, and it doesn't have to be about him. That's why they are such a cool couple.
	2:48pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Ed, and all
	2:48pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @2:47 VERY COOL!!
	2:48pm Lisab: ↳ Double R @2:47 Great point
	👻 2:48pm MelaniR: ↳ Double R @2:47 Agree, Double R; glad I got to see them at The Loft a few months back.
	2:49pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey COELACANTHO.....Welcome!
	2:50pm AtlanticTunnel: They both have their own careers and can separate and also work together...that's cool!
	2:51pm D Baxter: Hello Ed, MelaniR et al, interesting interview. Cheers following whole wide world . I wondered if you were going to play I’m gonna be (500 miles) the proclaimers. Different era surely, but seems in the ballpark of influenced)nod, wink).
	2:52pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey Dee.......I had my hands full interviewing Eric :))))
	2:53pm Double R: ↳ Song: "Baduat Town" by "Wreckless Eril" Sounds like he's singing Bad HAT Town.. Great title and concept.
	2:53pm Double R: Eric is one of those singers who sound exactly as they do when they talk.
	2:54pm Lilith212: Hi Ed , i believe the album is called Leisureland, No?
	2:54pm AtlanticTunnel: Now you know what he was doing during Covid...which is almost died from!
	2:54pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @2:53 Yes, so true!
	2:55pm Ms.Amanda: there are hints of robyn hithcock but with a bucket load more grit
	2:55pm AtlanticTunnel: Lilth212....You are correct!!!!!!!!
	2:56pm coelacanth∅: Eric still rocking, and still great!
	2:56pm AtlanticTunnel: Amanda....I think Eric had it first!!!!!!!!
	2:56pm Lilith212: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:56 AGREED!
	2:57pm Double R: ↳ Ms.Amanda @2:55 Great call.... I hear that. And yes, wayyyy more grit. I saw a heartbreaking post today written by Robyn Hitchcock about the passing of his daughter. Be careful when reading it. The tears will flow.
	2:58pm Double R: ↳ Song: "Broken Doll" by "Cliff Richard" Ouch,,,,,, All the grit has been removed here.
	2:58pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @2:57 Oh no! That is heart wrenching news
	2:58pm Ms.Amanda: ↳ Double R @2:57 Oh no... that's too sad. Didnt chris stein's daughter also die recently
	3:00pm AtlanticTunnel: DR.....Yeah....But I would luv a cover from cLIFF!
	3:00pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Double R @2:57 oh crap. i might get a head start before even reading that.
	3:00pm Double R: ↳ Ms.Amanda @2:58 I didn't hear that.
	3:01pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @2:58 Can see now why Wreckless Eric isn't a fan of Cliff Richard
	3:01pm Double R: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:00 Yes,, so eloquent and heartbreaking
	3:01pm AtlanticTunnel: Ha ha...oh yeh!!!....it's Cliff!
	3:02pm Double R: ↳ Lilith212 @3:01 Yes... He was wise to keep him away from Whole Wide World.
	3:02pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @3:02 Definitely
	3:03pm AtlanticTunnel: Hope he made a lot of "cash" from the cover :)))))
	3:04pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Lilith212 @3:01 K.A.S.H.!
	3:04pm SWK: Aw yeah it’s Evinrude Eric! Greetings from Scott & Bryn!
	3:04pm AtlanticTunnel: ha ha...u got it!!!!
	3:05pm Ms.Amanda: Much prefer this version, but maybe cliff keeps royalties healthy!
	3:05pm coelacanth∅: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:04 i'm sorry that was a reaction to Ed^!
	3:06pm coelacanth∅: (take the cash, take the k.a.s.h. ... never mind!)
	3:06pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey SWK....Brill you could join us today!
	3:06pm Lilith212: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:06 HAHA!
	3:07pm Double R: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:06 HAhAHa, I got it !!!! You are a true Eric fan.
	3:07pm SWK: Requesting Girl with the Wandering Eye!
	3:07pm Lilith212: ↳ Song: "Standing Town" by "Wreckess Eric" Great tune!
	3:07pm Double R: ↳ Lilith212 @3:07 You seem to like his new stuff. Me too
	3:08pm AtlanticTunnel: SWK....Will play on a future show!!!
	3:08pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @3:07 Very much, Yes!
	3:08pm AtlanticTunnel: DR....These songs are my faves!!!
	3:10pm Double R: ↳ Song: "You Don't Say You Love Me" by "Mortimer" The Theme of this set must be GRITLESS WONDERS.
	3:11pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @3:10 HAHA!
	3:15pm Lilith212: ↳ Song: "World Of You" by "The Aerovons" dig it
	3:17pm Double R: ↳ Song: "We're For The Dark" by "Badfinger" The great Pete Ham. The only reason Badfinger never made an album that is considered one of the all time greats is because he was such a sweet guy and made the other band members got their songs on the albums. And none of them came to the caliber of songwriter he was.
	👻 3:18pm MelaniR: ↳ Double R @3:17 What a rare soul he was
	3:18pm Double R: ↳ Double R @3:17 I apologize for the typos, but you get my point.
	3:19pm Double R: ↳ MelaniR @3:18 He truly was
	3:19pm AtlanticTunnel: That's so sad!....I thought No Dice was a good album!...They were always secondary Beatles to me!
	3:20pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @3:17 So cool! A rarity to let others shine. Definitely my type of human!
	3:20pm Double R: ↳ AtlanticTunnel @3:19 Look at the credits. All the great songs are his...
	3:21pm Double R: ↳ Song: "Tame the Lion" by "Emitt Rhodes" Great choice, Everyone forgets the albums he made after the one everyone, deservedly, loves.
	3:21pm Ms.Amanda: like these
	3:22pm AtlanticTunnel: Oh!...I know what a gifted songwriter was!!!!
	3:23pm AtlanticTunnel: Ms A...Early 70's pop songs!
	3:23pm Double R: ↳ Song: "Another Day" by "Paul McCartney" This could very well be my favorite McCartney song. He wrote about women in a very warm way.
	3:23pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @3:23 Beautiful
	👻 3:24pm MelaniR: ↳ Double R @3:23 Wow - cool choice; I have to say it does sound AMAZING.
	3:25pm AtlanticTunnel: written and recorded during "The Ram Sessions"..left off the album!
	3:25pm Lilith212: Fantastic Set!
	3:26pm Double R: ↳ AtlanticTunnel @3:25 He had the SO SAD part sitting around for a song he was going to write for a movie. He added it to Another Day as a bridge.

	3:49pm AtlanticTunnel: Yeah!...who know!...A Led Zepplin song!l
	3:50pm Lisab: Sandie had more vocal strength than we knew
	👻 3:51pm MelaniR: ↳ Lisab @3:50 I thought the same thing, Lisab!
	3:51pm Lilith212: ↳ Lisab @3:50 Agreed!

	2:41pm Lisab: ↳ MelaniR @2:36 So cool Melani he was amazing
	2:42pm Lisab: Eric is a smart dude
	👻 2:42pm MelaniR: ↳ Lilith212 @2:38 You say awesome because you weren't on the bus up to and back from Loughborough! We almost missed our flight home the next day!
	2:42pm Lilith212: ↳ Lisab @2:42 Indeed!
	2:43pm Ms.Amanda: He's a talker!!! :) double episode
	2:44pm Leigh Gregory: Diggin' it today Edward!!! Can't be on for too long anymore on Sundays but brilliant to hear the interview and tunes from Wreckless Eric!!!
	2:44pm Double R: ↳ Song: "Whole Wide World..........." by "Wreckless Ericl" Nick Lowe's production always stands out.
	2:44pm AtlanticTunnel: Ha ha....Eric is a character!!!!!!!!
	2:45pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey Leigh....Did you check out ian?
	2:45pm AtlanticTunnel: at this time anything Nick touched was golden!!!!!
	2:46pm Double R: ↳ AtlanticTunnel @2:45 Very true
	2:47pm Double R: I think it's very cool of Eric to sometimes just play bass in his wife's band. He let's Amy Rigby take the spotlight and do her thing. He sits back there and backs her up. Very impressive that he can just support his wife, and it doesn't have to be about him. That's why they are such a cool couple.
	2:48pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Ed, and all
	2:48pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @2:47 VERY COOL!!
	2:48pm Lisab: ↳ Double R @2:47 Great point
	👻 2:48pm MelaniR: ↳ Double R @2:47 Agree, Double R; glad I got to see them at The Loft a few months back.
	2:49pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey COELACANTHO.....Welcome!
	2:50pm AtlanticTunnel: They both have their own careers and can separate and also work together...that's cool!
	2:51pm D Baxter: Hello Ed, MelaniR et al, interesting interview. Cheers following whole wide world . I wondered if you were going to play I’m gonna be (500 miles) the proclaimers. Different era surely, but seems in the ballpark of influenced)nod, wink).
	2:52pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey Dee.......I had my hands full interviewing Eric :))))
	2:53pm Double R: ↳ Song: "Baduat Town" by "Wreckless Eril" Sounds like he's singing Bad HAT Town.. Great title and concept.
	2:53pm Double R: Eric is one of those singers who sound exactly as they do when they talk.
	2:54pm Lilith212: Hi Ed , i believe the album is called Leisureland, No?
	2:54pm AtlanticTunnel: Now you know what he was doing during Covid...which is almost died from!
	2:54pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @2:53 Yes, so true!
	2:55pm Ms.Amanda: there are hints of robyn hithcock but with a bucket load more grit
	2:55pm AtlanticTunnel: Lilth212....You are correct!!!!!!!!
	2:56pm coelacanth∅: Eric still rocking, and still great!
	2:56pm AtlanticTunnel: Amanda....I think Eric had it first!!!!!!!!
	2:56pm Lilith212: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:56 AGREED!
	2:57pm Double R: ↳ Ms.Amanda @2:55 Great call.... I hear that. And yes, wayyyy more grit. I saw a heartbreaking post today written by Robyn Hitchcock about the passing of his daughter. Be careful when reading it. The tears will flow.
	2:58pm Double R: ↳ Song: "Broken Doll" by "Cliff Richard" Ouch,,,,,, All the grit has been removed here.
	2:58pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @2:57 Oh no! That is heart wrenching news
	2:58pm Ms.Amanda: ↳ Double R @2:57 Oh no... that's too sad. Didnt chris stein's daughter also die recently
	3:00pm AtlanticTunnel: DR.....Yeah....But I would luv a cover from cLIFF!
	3:00pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Double R @2:57 oh crap. i might get a head start before even reading that.
	3:00pm Double R: ↳ Ms.Amanda @2:58 I didn't hear that.
	3:01pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @2:58 Can see now why Wreckless Eric isn't a fan of Cliff Richard
	3:01pm Double R: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:00 Yes,, so eloquent and heartbreaking
	3:01pm AtlanticTunnel: Ha ha...oh yeh!!!....it's Cliff!
	3:02pm Double R: ↳ Lilith212 @3:01 Yes... He was wise to keep him away from Whole Wide World.
	3:02pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @3:02 Definitely
	3:03pm AtlanticTunnel: Hope he made a lot of "cash" from the cover :)))))
	3:04pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Lilith212 @3:01 K.A.S.H.!
	3:04pm SWK: Aw yeah it’s Evinrude Eric! Greetings from Scott & Bryn!
	3:04pm AtlanticTunnel: ha ha...u got it!!!!
	3:05pm Ms.Amanda: Much prefer this version, but maybe cliff keeps royalties healthy!
	3:05pm coelacanth∅: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:04 i'm sorry that was a reaction to Ed^!
	3:06pm coelacanth∅: (take the cash, take the k.a.s.h. ... never mind!)
	3:06pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey SWK....Brill you could join us today!
	3:06pm Lilith212: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:06 HAHA!
	3:07pm Double R: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:06 HAhAHa, I got it !!!! You are a true Eric fan.
	3:07pm SWK: Requesting Girl with the Wandering Eye!
	3:07pm Lilith212: ↳ Song: "Standing Town" by "Wreckess Eric" Great tune!
	3:07pm Double R: ↳ Lilith212 @3:07 You seem to like his new stuff. Me too
	3:08pm AtlanticTunnel: SWK....Will play on a future show!!!
	3:08pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @3:07 Very much, Yes!
	3:08pm AtlanticTunnel: DR....These songs are my faves!!!
	3:10pm Double R: ↳ Song: "You Don't Say You Love Me" by "Mortimer" The Theme of this set must be GRITLESS WONDERS.
	3:11pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @3:10 HAHA!
	3:15pm Lilith212: ↳ Song: "World Of You" by "The Aerovons" dig it
	3:17pm Double R: ↳ Song: "We're For The Dark" by "Badfinger" The great Pete Ham. The only reason Badfinger never made an album that is considered one of the all time greats is because he was such a sweet guy and made the other band members got their songs on the albums. And none of them came to the caliber of songwriter he was.
	👻 3:18pm MelaniR: ↳ Double R @3:17 What a rare soul he was
	3:18pm Double R: ↳ Double R @3:17 I apologize for the typos, but you get my point.
	3:19pm Double R: ↳ MelaniR @3:18 He truly was
	3:19pm AtlanticTunnel: That's so sad!....I thought No Dice was a good album!...They were always secondary Beatles to me!
	3:20pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @3:17 So cool! A rarity to let others shine. Definitely my type of human!
	3:20pm Double R: ↳ AtlanticTunnel @3:19 Look at the credits. All the great songs are his...
	3:21pm Double R: ↳ Song: "Tame the Lion" by "Emitt Rhodes" Great choice, Everyone forgets the albums he made after the one everyone, deservedly, loves.
	3:21pm Ms.Amanda: like these
	3:22pm AtlanticTunnel: Oh!...I know what a gifted songwriter was!!!!
	3:23pm AtlanticTunnel: Ms A...Early 70's pop songs!
	3:23pm Double R: ↳ Song: "Another Day" by "Paul McCartney" This could very well be my favorite McCartney song. He wrote about women in a very warm way.
	3:23pm Lilith212: ↳ Double R @3:23 Beautiful
	👻 3:24pm MelaniR: ↳ Double R @3:23 Wow - cool choice; I have to say it does sound AMAZING.
	3:25pm AtlanticTunnel: written and recorded during "The Ram Sessions"..left off the album!
	3:25pm Lilith212: Fantastic Set!
	3:26pm Double R: ↳ AtlanticTunnel @3:25 He had the SO SAD part sitting around for a song he was going to write for a movie. He added it to Another Day as a bridge.

	3:49pm AtlanticTunnel: Yeah!...who know!...A Led Zepplin song!l
	3:50pm Lisab: Sandie had more vocal strength than we knew
	👻 3:51pm MelaniR: ↳ Lisab @3:50 I thought the same thing, Lisab!
	3:51pm Lilith212: ↳ Lisab @3:50 Agreed!
