Listener comments!
	3:03pm Wild Neil: Hi Irwin et al!
	3:06pm Grok-o-matic: woot woot
	3:10pm Irwin: Sorry for that horrid opening mic break.
	3:21pm Wild Neil: @Irwin-No problem, it was funny!
	3:59pm Greg from ZONE 5: YES!
	3:59pm Laura L: Aw, he calls her "Darling."
	4:01pm Polyus: The schadenfreude is strong with this one.
	4:05pm Irwin: Hard to believe Andy is capable of delivering such sensitive lyrics.
	4:09pm Polyus: A 60s girl group-style cover that flips the script would be just the thing.
	4:17pm berbo: Which ELP album is this? I don't think I've heard it before.
	4:18pm Dean: It's EWP.
	4:19pm Laura L: Waterfall Person is no quitter!
	4:21pm Roberto: Oy this song.
	4:28pm b k: Always great to hear The Rainmakers. What great records( and great live also ) Thanks.
	4:31pm Parq: Diatribe? Setting work aside and turning up the volume.
	👻 4:33pm rrg: Say it ain't so, LL!
	4:34pm Laura L: I'm Calypdeficient, it's not my fault!
	👻 4:34pm rrg: Maybe you can ease it into via Belafonte.
	4:35pm Dean: If I was president, nobody would ever have to use the subjunctive mood.
	4:35pm berbo: IrwinCare - All calypso, all the time
	4:36pm Depressed guy: Could I still take Celexa?
	4:36pm ottovonbqe: I think I'd vote for Trump before Irwin
	4:38pm Irwin: Mighty Sparrow wrote this tune.
	4:38pm Laura L: I like Harry B. fine! He's a-ok. Have met him a bunch of times through a coincidental connection--he's a prince of a man.
	4:40pm Irwin: Belafonte is NOT a calypsonian. The genuine calypsonians make fun of him.
	4:40pm Irwin: Here you get more.
	4:41pm berbo: Suddenly my arthritis has gone away, and I no longer have pelagra. Thanks IrwinCare!
	4:42pm Irwin: CALYPSO - the magical curative.
	4:42pm Cheer: Lovin the calypsoian sounds! also, Rooster Was a Witness is an amazing title for a tune
	4:43pm Parq: pel·la·gra pəˈlaɡrə,-ˈlāɡrə,-ˈläɡrə/ noun noun: pellagra a deficiency disease caused by a lack of nicotinic acid or its precursor tryptophan in the diet. It is characterized by dermatitis, diarrhea, and mental disturbance, and is often linked to overdependence on corn as a staple food.
	4:43pm TDK60: Harry's 'Ballads, Blues and Boasters' is one of my fave LPs.
	4:44pm Parq: Just in case anyone else was wondering.
	4:44pm Laura L: Well, I don't turn it off--for godsake it's not free jazz--but I just don't have the Calypthing. Like I said, it's not my fault--I was born that way!
	4:45pm Irwin: You guys lay off Laura. She has some redeeming characteristics and has contributed modestly to society. Plus she's not a chronic depressive so she doesn't need the calypso tonic.
	4:45pm Dean: How about Tripoli Steel Band? They dip into calypso now and then. Visiting my mother over the weekend I found two autographed LPs by same. Love the fact that one iteration of the band is named after an oil company.
	👻 4:48pm rrg: There's a pretty-good album by the "Esso Trinidad Steel Band" that I have. Is that the one?
	4:49pm Laura L: Nah, no chronic depressive, don't need no tonic. Irwin, you can add Calypso Care Provider to your resume--you have cured berbo of the pellagra!
	4:50pm Cliff: Yay, it's Lush!
	4:51pm Dean: Yep, that's one of the them, but they also go by Tripoli Steel Band. I remember hearing them live at a shopping mall in Southern California when I was maybe eight years old.
	👻 5:03pm βrian: Haven't we all had Mondays like that?
	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just missed '500' ! - (sincerely) a favorite; freakin' ladyband's lovesong to a gawdam car on an album generally brutally dismissive of males...
	5:10pm Carmichael: I'm reading the Bert Berns bio right now, so it's Afro-Cuban for me. But I still love the Mighty Sparrow. And I missed one of the few Hatfield & the North plays on FMU! Archives later ...
	5:14pm wilbur twinhorse: Irwin, Do you know the Calypso singer in the 1943 film, "I Walked With A Zombie"? He was good!
	5:18pm Linda Lee: sweet music! thank you Irwin!
	5:18pm Irwin: Wilbur: Haven't seen the film.
	5:18pm Laura L: Beautiful work from David Garland--thanks for playing that... and the calypso, sure why not. Will David be releasing that sometime in 2016?
	5:18pm Linda Lee: @Laura L ~ i sure do hope so. tonic for me.
	5:18pm Irwin: Don't know if David has a label or intends to self-release.
	5:19pm jan: Loving that David Garland composition.
	👻 5:20pm rrg: Internet research suggests that the calypso singer in "I Walked with a Zombie" was Sir Lancelot.
	5:21pm TDK60: Garland is no longer D.J.ing at the NYC classical station WQXR.
	5:22pm Laura L: It's so perfectly David Garland. Yes, my kind of tonic too, Linda L., I would sure buy a copy of that!
	5:22pm Listening Out There: Any discussion of David Garland doing a regular program on WFMU?
	5:23pm Irwin: LoL: Yes. Discussions.
	5:24pm Listening Out There: Thx, Host. That would be great to hear...
	5:25pm Listening Out There: Maybe bribery is in order...
	5:25pm TDK60: Wow, that would be fun -- D.G. at FMU.
	5:25pm Irwin: David lives two or three hours north of JC.
	5:26pm wilbur twinhorse: ok then, thanks rrg, the web is amazing...and scary.
	👻 5:27pm rrg: Hey, if Narduar can do a WFMU show remotely (as he did for years), then so could DG. Just sayin'.
	5:27pm Listening Out There: ...but FMU/Drummer has a number of remote hosts, right? Vicki Bennett, Charlie...
	👻 5:28pm rrg: That's right, LOT. In fact I'm led to believe that most of what's on the Drummer stream is done remotely.
	5:29pm Carmichael: ALL of the DrumSum folks are remote, with perhaps AmNazz being the exception. Kind of the purpose, I think.
	5:29pm Listening Out There: Well, then...Give the Garland Some.
	5:31pm Carmichael: Thanks for the Cachao, Irwin!
	5:34pm Monica: Re: Drummer stream, Matt Fiveash is also live from JC.
	5:36pm Listening Out There: I never would have put Mighty Sparrow and Van Dykes Park together. Go figure...
	👻 5:37pm rrg: Speaking of Van Dyke Parks, he also produced that previously-mentioned album by the Esso Trinidad Steel Band.
	👻 5:37pm rrg: A versatile chap.
	5:38pm Listening Out There: RRG: Thx + I did not know that. Will have to look at my version in glorious MP3 + .jpg format...
	5:41pm berbo: I think my pelagra is coming back.
	5:42pm Listening Out There: RRG: Dang. You be right. Van Dyke and (Dottie?) Parks. Right thar, in that low res .jpg. I can't make out that second name...
	5:43pm Irwin: VDP is a yuge calypso fan. Check out the calypso on "Discover America."
	5:43pm Dean: VDP produced that Esso album?! Wow, I didn't notice that. Will check again when I'm next in my mother's neck of the woods.
	👻 5:44pm rrg: Durrie Parks, says discogs.com.
	5:44pm Listening Out There: Good to know. My VDP knowledge is mainly around stuff he did with Brian Wilson.
	5:45pm Linda Lee: ~ love the Click Kids! cheered me right up.
	5:45pm Irwin: VDP was interviewed ON THIS PROGRAM about Mighty Sparrow when I was hosting Muriel's Treasure in '06-'07.
	5:45pm Ham: van dyke parks did a silverchair album. i would've never associated those two. kind of funny.
	👻 5:45pm rrg: Durrie Parks was married to Van Dyke at the time.
	5:46pm Irwin: The Click Kids am curative.
	5:46pm Linda Lee: yessir! am truly.
	5:51pm Sean D: i drew some atomic titties at work today... first song i hear when i get home is by atomic rooster...crazy
	5:57pm Listening Out There: Thanks again. Will be diggin' into the archive to listen to what I missed...
	5:57pm Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, Irwin!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY Sir.
	9:00pm Mike O: Stand your ground, old timer, the Pickups of Silversun do indeed rule!!
