	11:07am Bob Brainen: Good morning, Soule
	11:07am Jeff: Good Morning Bob + fellow listeners. I saw Rahsaan AFTER his stroke, and he still played 2 or 3 instruments at once. He was a force of nature!
	11:07am Bob Brainen: ↳ wmfromd @11:06 It's a contender, for sure. But it's got a warmth to it.
	11:09am Bob Brainen: Hey Jeff, as did I. It might have been the same show, iirc, a prev. exchange.
	11:11am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Pauly from Clifton @11:01 Good morning, Pauly!
	11:11am Jeff: Bob, was it that Radio City midnight jam? Just about everyone was there.
	11:12am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Soule @11:06 Good day, Soule!
	🥁 11:14am chresti: Hi Bob and braineniacs!
	11:15am Bob Brainen: ↳ Jeff @11:11 Jeff, I don't think so. I have the booklet somewhere. I just can't recall the venue offhand. I'd guess 1977 or 1978.
	11:15am Bob Brainen: Hi, chresti
	11:15am Franco Twinkie: Hello Bob. Looking forward to the Jerry Miller tribute.
	11:16am Bob Brainen: Hello, Franco Twinkie.
	🥁 11:24am Gina Bacon: Morning, Bob & all!
	11:24am Jeff: Bob, I can’t seem to figure out how to do that reply thing on my iPhone. That midnight jam (summer ‘76, I believe) was the only time I saw Rahsaan. The list of musicians who played that night was astounding. I think part of the proceeds went for Rahsaan’s medical needs, and I remember him coming out and playing solo.
	11:27am Jeff: Here’s The NY Times review. It doesn’t do it justice https://www.nytimes.com/1976/07/03/archives/midnight-jam-session-is-an-inspired-concert.html?unlocked_article_code=1.-U0.X7j2.mamgPWT5odF0&smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare&sgrp=c-cb
	11:28am Bob Brainen: It sounds like a different show. I just remember him and his band and he played that modified sax so he could get (some of) the notes 2 hands normally got.
	11:29am SecretSquirrel: Also saw Rahsaan post-stroke, at the Village Vanguard. He was still formidable and his band was smokin’
	🥁 11:30am Will thee SG OCNY: 🐸 🐸 🐸
	11:32am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Gina Bacon @11:24 Morning, Gina!
	🥁 11:32am Gina Bacon: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:32 Morning, Andrew!
	11:37am mackeral: good morning all, from Sacramento
	11:38am gene sculatti: Hey, Bob!
	🥁 11:38am wmfromd: Damn, I hadn't heard about Happy Traum. Sucks.
	11:39am Bob Brainen: Morning, Gina B.
	11:39am Bob Brainen: Morning, mackeral
	11:40am Bob Brainen: Hey, Gene Sculatti!
	11:41am Frank Zaatar: In Yiddish: Der mentsh trakht un Got lakht. Good morning, Bob, squirrel, and all!
	11:43am Bob Brainen: Gut margn, Frank Zaatar.
	11:43am Sem: Bob!
	11:44am Bob Brainen: Sem!
	🥁 11:44am PAULS: Morning, Bob and crowd. Looking forward to Jerry. I had been +meaning to travel northwest to catch one of his weekly shows... so sad.
	11:45am mauri: 'Eyy Bob! Had to catch up and listen two previous shows today. Lotsa braining today.
	11:46am Bob Brainen: Eyy, mauri, I'm honored!
	11:46am Zip7: Hi Bob and folks. Nice to be able to drop in for the first time in a long, long time. Usually on Saturday responsibilities are swirling around me like a flock of ravens
	11:46am Bob Brainen: Morning, PAULS
	11:47am Bob Brainen: Hi, Zip7
	11:48am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Sem @11:43 Hiya, Sem!

	🥁 11:50am PAULS: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:48 hey andrew!
	11:53am MikeyinNC: Hey Good Morning Bob. Sure do hate the news about Jerry Miller. Hey to ATLDondi.
	11:55am Bob Brainen: Hey MikeyinNC, yeah it was a shocker, but he had a good life.
	11:56am Sem: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:48 Hello, Andrew in Toronto!
	11:56am SecretSquirrel: Hey Frank Zataar!
	12:02pm gene sculatti: P. Faith: sublime!!!
	12:05pm doctorjazz: Hi all, quick visit, heading on vacation in a bit (love this take on Monk)
	12:08pm Doug Schulkind: Have a nice break, doc! Hello, Bob and Saturday folk!
	12:08pm SecretSquirrel: Frank Zataar, I think we saw that Rahsaan show together.
	🥁 12:09pm PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @12:08 DOUG!!!
	12:11pm northguineahills: bob! braineniacs!
	12:18pm Bob Brainen: Hiya, doctorjazz, Enjoy yr time away!
	12:18pm Doug Schulkind: Hallo, PAULS!
	12:18pm Bob Brainen: Hita, Doug S!
	🥁 12:19pm PAULS: Pow pow POW!
	12:19pm Bob Brainen: northguineahills! Howdy do.
	🥁 12:23pm wmfromd: ↳ Song: "Ooh Mama Ooh" by "Moby Grape" Nice segue Bob.
	12:23pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ SecretSquirrel @12:08 Yes, I think we knew how lucky we were to see those jazz greats at the Vanguard and the Jazz Workshop in Boston. I only wish 21st-cenury me could Venmo more money to 1970s me to spend every night there.
	12:31pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Hey Grandma" by "Moby Grape" Years ago I had a mechanic who was born and raised in San Francisco. One day he came over to my house while I was sorting records. He picked up the first Moby Grape album off the living room floor and said "When I was in the sixth grade, a friend of mine lived upstairs from an apartment where Moby Grape would practice. We would come home from school to watch cartoons and they would be going at it. We would drink chocolate milk and stare at the floor as the music was booming below us." My mechanic was exactly the same age as me, so he would have been in the sixth grade in 1966/67, right when Moby Grape was taking off. Just thinking about it made my head spin.
	🥁 12:34pm PAULS: ↳ Song: "Someday" by "Moby Grape" This Bob Mosley vocal always gets me. chills
	12:35pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Franco Twinkie @12:31 Lucky kid!!
	12:36pm Franco Twinkie: He was full of stories about growing up in a city where everything was going nuts.
	12:39pm northguineahills: gotta run, thanks for the jerry miler tribute, bob. ciaosers!
	🥁 12:44pm listener 126464: Checking in to say hello. And thank you, Bob! Listening.
	12:45pm Bob Brainen: Hey, listener 126464, it's my pleasure.
	12:49pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "8:05" by "Moby Grape" Jerry told the story about this song - he was splitting up with his wife one morning, then heading over The Golden Gate Bridge into Marin County.
	1:00pm gene sculatti: Hadn't heard that story before. Great stuff. I remember buying the Grape debut and Sgt. Pepper on the same day in '67, in SF. First time I bought stereo versions.
	1:02pm patrick321: Hey Bob and all... Getting a late start this morning
	1:03pm Bob Brainen: ↳ gene sculatti @1:00 Wow, Gene. I prefer stereo for both of those albums. Of course, love to hear the mono for contrast.
	1:04pm Bob Brainen: Hey, patrick321
	1:05pm gene sculatti: Being a college student, I didn't have a lot of dough, so I always bought mono. But these LPs constituted a special occasion. Would be cool, tho, to hear the mono.
	1:05pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "I Fought The Law" by "Bobby Fuller" Wow! Jerry really got around.
	1:07pm JoeChrisMorris: I like that Miller is on Neil Youngs last live record (with some band called the Ducks? not sure if he does "Murder in my heart for the judge" or anything on it have a few hours of Miller on video just jamming, off some tv? Its a LOT of fun, in color, not sure of the year
	1:09pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ JoeChrisMorris @1:07 Bob Mosley was a Duck!
	1:09pm Bob Brainen: ↳ JoeChrisMorris @1:07 Hey, JoeChrisMorris.
	🥁 1:10pm PAULS: ↳ Song: "Someday" by "The Frantics" embryonic Grape!
	1:18pm JoeChrisMorris: ↳ Bob Brainen @1:09 Hey all! Can't beliieve people are up this early! They're playing the Marx Brothers next month (August) here at the Englewood Library park Bob: just sent you a Danny Kirwin solo thingy
	1:19pm Bob Brainen: ↳ JoeChrisMorris @1:18 Thanks, Joe.
	1:19pm JoeChrisMorris: this is such a good album (Moby Grape) - Bob is right in his interview, this is the best debut by ANY band Not in print, sadly!
	1:21pm JoeChrisMorris: Moby Grape 69 may be better than Moby Grape!!
	1:24pm JoeChrisMorris: is 20 Granite Creek on CD? The essential Moby Grape seems to be Vintage, with the Sundazed issues impossible to find (the NYPL has them!
	1:28pm JoeChrisMorris: ↳ wmfromd @11:38 he plays on Dylans Another Self Portrait 2CD
	🥁 1:30pm PAULS: ↳ Song: "Sweet Ride (Never Again) (unedited version)" by "... Killer
	🥁 1:31pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ Song: "Sweet Ride (Never Again) (unedited version)" by "... This is rad!!! 🔥🔥🔥
	1:33pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Naked If I Want To" by "Moby Grape" One afternoon I walked over to Jacks Record Cellar in The Lower Haight. This young guy comes into the store in a highly agitated state, and wants to know if they have the first Moby Grape album. Wade, the owner goes into the back and comes back with a copy, then casually starts telling us about when he use to see them at The Ark in Sausalito. At this point I'm paying attention. Wade is recounting this memory like he went to the 7-11 to get a cup of coffee. Only in San Francisco!
	🥁 1:34pm Will thee SG OCNY: 🐸🐸🐸
	🥁 1:34pm PAULS: OK this has been a pri-tee good week as weeks go, but the last hour+ is in the top three things that happened, for me at least.
	1:39pm Franco Twinkie: This was so great! I passed on the farmers market to sit still and be bathed with this sweet, sweet music.
	1:40pm Zip7: Thanks,Bob! This set finally prodded me into ordering the Grape bio I've been meaning to read for several years
	1:41pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Zip7 @1:40 DO IT!!!
	1:44pm bigplanetnoise: Thank you, Bob!!! Fantastic show!
	1:47pm Bob Brainen: Thank you, BPN!!!
	🥁 1:48pm chresti: Thanks Bob!
	1:48pm Zip7: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:41 Hey Franco -- you ever read Mike Davis's book about LA, "City of Quartz"? Jeezits what a great book. The guys at Eastern Correctional are reading it. The last chapter, on Fontana, is just brilliant. I would sell my soul to write like that
	1:50pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Bob Brainen @1:47 What an inspired show! Thanks, Bob!
	1:51pm Jeff: Thanks Bob!

	12:31pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Hey Grandma" by "Moby Grape" Years ago I had a mechanic who was born and raised in San Francisco. One day he came over to my house while I was sorting records. He picked up the first Moby Grape album off the living room floor and said "When I was in the sixth grade, a friend of mine lived upstairs from an apartment where Moby Grape would practice. We would come home from school to watch cartoons and they would be going at it. We would drink chocolate milk and stare at the floor as the music was booming below us." My mechanic was exactly the same age as me, so he would have been in the sixth grade in 1966/67, right when Moby Grape was taking off. Just thinking about it made my head spin.
	🥁 12:34pm PAULS: ↳ Song: "Someday" by "Moby Grape" This Bob Mosley vocal always gets me. chills

	12:49pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "8:05" by "Moby Grape" Jerry told the story about this song - he was splitting up with his wife one morning, then heading over The Golden Gate Bridge into Marin County.
	1:00pm gene sculatti: Hadn't heard that story before. Great stuff. I remember buying the Grape debut and Sgt. Pepper on the same day in '67, in SF. First time I bought stereo versions.
	1:02pm patrick321: Hey Bob and all... Getting a late start this morning
	1:03pm Bob Brainen: ↳ gene sculatti @1:00 Wow, Gene. I prefer stereo for both of those albums. Of course, love to hear the mono for contrast.
	1:04pm Bob Brainen: Hey, patrick321
	1:05pm gene sculatti: Being a college student, I didn't have a lot of dough, so I always bought mono. But these LPs constituted a special occasion. Would be cool, tho, to hear the mono.
	1:05pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "I Fought The Law" by "Bobby Fuller" Wow! Jerry really got around.
	1:07pm JoeChrisMorris: I like that Miller is on Neil Youngs last live record (with some band called the Ducks? not sure if he does "Murder in my heart for the judge" or anything on it have a few hours of Miller on video just jamming, off some tv? Its a LOT of fun, in color, not sure of the year

	1:21pm JoeChrisMorris: Moby Grape 69 may be better than Moby Grape!!
	1:24pm JoeChrisMorris: is 20 Granite Creek on CD? The essential Moby Grape seems to be Vintage, with the Sundazed issues impossible to find (the NYPL has them!
	1:28pm JoeChrisMorris: ↳ wmfromd @11:38 he plays on Dylans Another Self Portrait 2CD
	🥁 1:30pm PAULS: ↳ Song: "Sweet Ride (Never Again) (unedited version)" by "... Killer
	🥁 1:31pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ Song: "Sweet Ride (Never Again) (unedited version)" by "... This is rad!!! 🔥🔥🔥
	1:33pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Naked If I Want To" by "Moby Grape" One afternoon I walked over to Jacks Record Cellar in The Lower Haight. This young guy comes into the store in a highly agitated state, and wants to know if they have the first Moby Grape album. Wade, the owner goes into the back and comes back with a copy, then casually starts telling us about when he use to see them at The Ark in Sausalito. At this point I'm paying attention. Wade is recounting this memory like he went to the 7-11 to get a cup of coffee. Only in San Francisco!
	🥁 1:34pm Will thee SG OCNY: 🐸🐸🐸
	🥁 1:34pm PAULS: OK this has been a pri-tee good week as weeks go, but the last hour+ is in the top three things that happened, for me at least.
