Listener comments!
	3:05am Chris: I enjoy such a nice contrast from the three hours of metal vocals to the smooth sound of Chet Baker!
	3:06am Joe: Thanks, Chris--I could play Chet for an hour. Maybe I will one of these days.
	4:41am Brian in UK: This Red Sorvine is doing me. I'm welling up , Joe
	4:42am Joe: I like the fact that he goes away...for six years! And then he's surprised that his family is gone.
	4:45am Brian in UK: Just seen that you played Belle earlier. That stands with the best of any of the Reverends. Dang if it ain't started raining here.
	4:48am Joe: I wanted to play a different track from the album, but alas, it's not in the WFMU library! (look of shock) It's been raining here all night, but (so far) not in my heart.
	4:48am Brian in UK: Yeah, I got that six year line. Killer. Want to plant my potatoes today, May be too wet. That sounds like some blues euphemism.
	4:51am Joe: Ha ha ha! Maybe you can do something with your rutabagas.
	5:04am Brian in UK: It's that really fine stuff that soaks you thru. Off to check if the chooks have laid this morning. The Yachts! I love this station cause you have the reverse sense of pop.Love for English groups that we seem to have the opposite feeling for American groups over here.
	5:07am Brian in UK: I think it's going to rain today?
	5:08am Rachel Malheure: Berlin is nice and sunny - very sunny!!! so europe isn't dark at all:)
	5:10am Joe: Yay, I'm glad it's sunny in Berlin!!
	5:18am Joe: Here you go, Brian!
	5:22am Brian in UK: I'm guessing that Alan Price the keyboard player in The Animals may have picked up on that song 'cause he covered Simon Smith later when he was solo. Sorry sounds a bit nerdy.
	5:24am Rachel Malheure: Thnx for the good sounding stuff! gotta go now - work's callin with a mono sonorous voice...have a nice day!
	5:24am Joe: Ha ha! Price was gone by this time, but although he was the first to record Newman from the group, Burdon recorded the most: There are 4 RN songs on this LP!
	5:25am Joe: Take care, Rachel--sorry you have to work on Sunday!
	5:29am Brian in UK: You are the man. Rains stopped, might have to cut & run, Joe. Davy, the Fat Boy always does me. You'll be playing Fever Tree next!!!
	5:31am Joe: I was going to play "Big Brother" by Calvin Grayson, a sort of early song on the same theme of "brotherly love," but I chose Erma instead...I might yet! Have a good one, Brian.
	5:33am Jay: thanks joe great music for our hangovers just perfect for us
	5:35am Joe: Thanks, Jay, glad the sounds are restorative this morning...
	5:43am Me: Does anybody know what Kevin Ayers song Joe uses?
	5:48am Joe: I can tell if you like. :)
	5:49am Me: Yes please. I think you've told me before but I've forgotten.
	5:54am Joe: It's from a demo collection called "What More Can I Say..." I think it's called "Crystal Clear," but I already forget! Anyway, it's a great CD.
	5:56am Me: Thanks
	5:59am Looms: Hi Joe! Bettye Swann sounds so good! Glad to hear this song on that rainy sunday morning.

Mon. Jan 13th, 9am - Noon: Surface Noise Live from Lincoln Center with Special Guest Don Fleming (More info...)
Tune in on Monday morning, January 13th, for a special remote broadcast of Surface Noise from Lincoln Center's Library of the Performing Arts. Joe and his special guest Don Fleming will be broadcasting live from the Bruno C. Walter Auditorium, playing records they have selected from the Performing Arts library's vast Music and Recorded Archival Sound Collection. Joe and Don have delved deep to fish out rare and interesting music to share, hopefully playing some things not heard before on WFMU.
