	3:54pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @3:54 200% solid all the way through and hugely influential.

	4:00pm zzz: initial run of steely records thru Gaucho also NOT A BAD RUN
	4:00pm tom tom the pipers son: hi erica... nice to meet you...
	4:01pm Funky16Corners: ↳ zzz @4:00 Seriously. I'd put the Dan and Little Feat's Lowell George-era output side by side as some of the finest of the 70s
	4:01pm StringOFperils: ↳ zzz @3:59 Music of My Mind in front of that run too! Greezy funk pioneering. All that stuff is A-mazing!
	4:01pm tom tom the pipers son: hi funky 16...are you larry?

	4:04pm zzz: ↳ StringOFperils @4:01 left off just bc of my ignorance of the album, have listened to those other ones endlessly. will cue up Music of My Mind for my commute home later
	4:04pm David The Splatter: Not a bad set at all, from my speaker it sounds like one long continuous funky jam.
	4:04pm Funky16Corners: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:04 It's a shame some of Guaraldi's soundtrack stuff was not properly preserved.
	4:05pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David The Splatter @4:04 My evil plans coming to fruition!

	4:13pm Funky16Corners: ↳ still b/p @4:13 Hey SBP! I'll take that!
	4:17pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Beaux J Poo Poo" by "Les McCann" I love this early 70s Fender Rhodes vibe. This album is filled with it.
	🥁 4:23pm Brian in UK: Hello Larry. Les Quatre Cent Coups
	4:23pm David The Splatter: On my way to the bus for a funky commute...
	4:24pm patrick321: ↳ still b/p @4:13 In the absence of a like button, I second that emotion. Bravo Larry.

	4:24pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:23 Hi Brian!
	4:25pm Funky16Corners: ↳ patrick321 @4:24 Thank you, Patrick!
	4:27pm StringOFperils: More very cool guitar work on this
	🥁 4:27pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Now I Live and Now My Life Is Done" by "Ben Sidran" I have a David Mittleman's "Observations of Deviance"( on GTDR) pavlovian reaction. (It's his bed music).
	4:28pm Jeff Ash: I had this Ben Sidran LP a million years ago. I was living in Madison, Wisconsin, at the time, and he was a Madison guy.
	4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Yvang @4:27 Oh cool, I didn't know that. This is a great album. Ben Sidran, early member of the Steve Miller band and co-author of Space Cowboy
	4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Jeff Ash @4:28 Didn't he donate his music archive to one of the universities in WI?
	4:29pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Now I Live and Now My Life Is Done" by "Ben Sidran" BTW James Brown drummer Clyde Stubblefield plays percussion on this track
	4:30pm Jeff Ash: He might have. Those are all Madison guys -- Steve Miller, Clyde Stubblefield, Ben Sidran.
	4:30pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Jeff Ash @4:30 Yes! I forgot about Clyde's Wisconsin connection!
	4:32pm Mike Sin: ↳ Song: "Now I Live and Now My Life Is Done" by "Ben Sidran" Of course being the high-flying freak that I am, I only knew Sidran from all the groove he added to all those early Steve Miller Band LPs.
	4:32pm Jeff Ash: Yes, the Ben Sidran Collection at the Mills Music Library at the University of Wisconsin contains 194 storage boxes, 4 photographic slide albums and 1 14-inch audiotape reel.
	4:32pm Fred R: Afternoon Larry and all!
	4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Fred R @4:32 Hey Fred!
	4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mike Sin @4:32 Hey Mike!
	4:33pm zzz: ↳ Song: "Meadows" by "Mose Allison" funny, i was trying to put my finger on what that Sidran vocal reminded me of and i think it must have been Mose Allison
	4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ zzz @4:33 Moe was a HUGE influence on Sidran
	4:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Jeff Ash @4:32 He's such a talented, prolific and interesting guy.
	4:34pm tom tom the pipers son: excellent dinner prep accompaniment ...dinner prepped...now i can finish my lunch
	4:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:34 What's for dinner?
	4:34pm StringOFperils: ↳ zzz @4:33 Maybe a little asthmatic Bob Dorough in there too?
	4:35pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:34 No doubt
	4:35pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Meadows" by "Mose Allison" It's a shame that Mose didn't do much more recording on electric piano. It suited him.
	4:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:34 marinating chicken breast in garlic, lemon juice and basil and some red potatoes w garlic and butter... pretty basic
	4:37pm Funky16Corners: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:36 Sounds delicious!
	4:38pm zzz: ↳ Song: "Rainbows/Plummer Park" by "Pete Jolly" such a cool record!!! apparently like 90% improvised. such a sweet groove on a bunch of these tracks
	🥁 4:38pm WR: Hi Larry and folks. Have been listening to the program (congrats on passing milestone 400) but work and other distractions keeping me from the playlist. Many thanks!
	4:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Rainbows/Plummer Park" by "Pete Jolly" This is a brilliant, way ahead of its time album. I don't know if it's ever been reissued on CD, and original copies go for 2-300 bucks
	4:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ zzz @4:38 I picked up my copy back in the day, after being hipped to it by sample-seekers/DJs. It really is amazing
	4:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @4:38 Hey WR! Next week is show 400!

	4:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Rainbows/Plummer Park" by "Pete Jolly" I mean, does this sound at all like 1970?

	4:40pm Asheville Jon: ↳ Song: "Rainbows/Plummer Park" by "Pete Jolly" this is nice!

	4:50pm StringOFperils: Hah!
	4:50pm Funky16Corners: ↳ zzz @4:50 He also wrote the great Cease the Bombing that he recorded with both Green and Pucho and the Latin Soul Brothers

	3:54pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Too High" by "Stevie Wonder" Stevie playing ALL instruments on this track
	3:54pm StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "Too High" by "Stevie Wonder" This has got to be one of the greatest recordings ever made in the entire 20th century. I'll shout it from the top of the house.
	3:54pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @3:54 200% solid all the way through and hugely influential.

	4:00pm tom tom the pipers son: hi erica... nice to meet you...

	4:04pm David The Splatter: Not a bad set at all, from my speaker it sounds like one long continuous funky jam.
	4:04pm Funky16Corners: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:04 It's a shame some of Guaraldi's soundtrack stuff was not properly preserved.

	4:13pm Funky16Corners: ↳ still b/p @4:13 Hey SBP! I'll take that!
	4:17pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Beaux J Poo Poo" by "Les McCann" I love this early 70s Fender Rhodes vibe. This album is filled with it.

	4:27pm StringOFperils: More very cool guitar work on this
	🥁 4:27pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Now I Live and Now My Life Is Done" by "Ben Sidran" I have a David Mittleman's "Observations of Deviance"( on GTDR) pavlovian reaction. (It's his bed music).
	4:28pm Jeff Ash: I had this Ben Sidran LP a million years ago. I was living in Madison, Wisconsin, at the time, and he was a Madison guy.
	4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Yvang @4:27 Oh cool, I didn't know that. This is a great album. Ben Sidran, early member of the Steve Miller band and co-author of Space Cowboy
	4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Jeff Ash @4:28 Didn't he donate his music archive to one of the universities in WI?
	4:29pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Now I Live and Now My Life Is Done" by "Ben Sidran" BTW James Brown drummer Clyde Stubblefield plays percussion on this track
	4:30pm Jeff Ash: He might have. Those are all Madison guys -- Steve Miller, Clyde Stubblefield, Ben Sidran.
	4:30pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Jeff Ash @4:30 Yes! I forgot about Clyde's Wisconsin connection!
	4:32pm Mike Sin: ↳ Song: "Now I Live and Now My Life Is Done" by "Ben Sidran" Of course being the high-flying freak that I am, I only knew Sidran from all the groove he added to all those early Steve Miller Band LPs.
	4:32pm Jeff Ash: Yes, the Ben Sidran Collection at the Mills Music Library at the University of Wisconsin contains 194 storage boxes, 4 photographic slide albums and 1 14-inch audiotape reel.

	4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Fred R @4:32 Hey Fred!
	4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mike Sin @4:32 Hey Mike!
	4:33pm zzz: ↳ Song: "Meadows" by "Mose Allison" funny, i was trying to put my finger on what that Sidran vocal reminded me of and i think it must have been Mose Allison
	4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ zzz @4:33 Moe was a HUGE influence on Sidran
	4:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Jeff Ash @4:32 He's such a talented, prolific and interesting guy.
	4:34pm tom tom the pipers son: excellent dinner prep accompaniment ...dinner prepped...now i can finish my lunch
	4:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:34 What's for dinner?
	4:34pm StringOFperils: ↳ zzz @4:33 Maybe a little asthmatic Bob Dorough in there too?
	4:35pm Funky16Corners: ↳ StringOFperils @4:34 No doubt
	4:35pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Song: "Meadows" by "Mose Allison" It's a shame that Mose didn't do much more recording on electric piano. It suited him.
	4:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:34 marinating chicken breast in garlic, lemon juice and basil and some red potatoes w garlic and butter... pretty basic
	4:37pm Funky16Corners: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:36 Sounds delicious!
