Listener comments!
	2:59pm βrian: Raspberry-Vanilla smoothie playlist: Bring on the boom!
	3:00pm P-90: It's time to Boom Boom!
	3:00pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Good afternoon Sheila & all you sophisticates
	3:01pm The Contessa: Hello Sheila! Hello everyone
	3:01pm Anonymous Coward: Sugoiiii, ne! Happy Good Friday Sheila and Fellow Boom-boomers
	3:02pm Rob Kopp: Hi Sheila, hello everyone, SBB time again
	3:02pm modchick65: CALGON.
	3:03pm doctorjazz: Hey, time for some Booming!
	3:03pm Adrian in London: Hello Sheila. Evening all, and yes, we DO know what's good for us, Bryce!
	3:03pm Anonymous Coward: Garoovy, Baby!
	3:03pm P-90: こんにちは Shira-san!
	3:04pm listener james from westwood: Afternoon, Sheila and all!!
	3:05pm sugarwolf: Mmmm jelly beans!
	3:05pm βrian: This is where Friday becomes a slippery slope.
	3:06pm ChrisB.: Sheila B-aby!
	3:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yesterday, MOAB. Pfft! Today, MOABB, the Mother Of All Boom Booms! Way more than 22 tons of hits in three hours. Go, Sheila!
	3:07pm JtotheK: Hi sheilaB, hi boom boomers. Liked the Jelly Beans track!
	3:07pm Carmichael: Heya Sheila and all those present in the Boom Boom room. I'll be taking my luncheon now; please don't play anything good until I get back ...
	3:08pm JtotheK: Now realizing it's late afternoon, a vacation day, and I've yet to have a beer. Oh my.
	3:08pm Adrian in London: OMG Sheila, just seen the photo on Twitter of you holding a tarantula. Was that some sort of therapy thingy? Our friend Tim is a etymologist and goes off to the jungles of Borneo to collect specimens. He was on TV doing a programme called Spider House, in which he filled a whole house with spiders, and the presenter had to spend the night there, in the name of science.
	3:08pm doctorjazz: Fridays are long radio days, too much good stuff on FMU!
	3:09pm P-90: Dig Jacqueline's rad Dorothy Hamil haircut
	3:09pm modchick65: Loving that surf-y guitar sound on this track.
	3:10pm listener james from westwood: I let spiders live in my apartment, as they eat a ton of bugs that sneak in through my crappy screens. If they get on my office desk I relocate them to a nearby wall.
	3:12pm NotARealDoctor: TGIATOF (Thank God it's After Three On Friday)!
	3:12pm djsheilab: G'afternoon Friday friends! I'm excited to tell you all my spider story later on in the show. Isn't this Molly Burch dreamy?
	3:13pm mzmm: hi SB! crazie troll lisnr here, luv yr sho jus'sayin'
	3:14pm βrian: Que dieu bénisse les chanteuses !
	3:15pm fred: Good afternoon Sheila, spiders, and listeners
	3:15pm northguineahills: Laetitia Sadier!
	3:16pm djsheilab: @Fred Yes! Let's all greet the spiders. @Listener James I'm so happy to hear you let the spiders live in your place. They are most helpful with mosquitos + other pests.
	3:19pm modchick65: Listening to SBB and messaging with childhood friend who is designing tshirts based on our junior high yearbook staff is a great way to end the week. And I freaking LOVE this Bettye Swann song.
	3:20pm Ken From Hyde Park: Haven't seen the spider picture. Is it as big as Califorctenus cacachilensis? www.smithsonianmag.com...
	3:20pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Spiders are awesome.
	3:22pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: From Ken's link - "While Cacachilensis is pretty good sized, it’s nowhere near the world's largest by leg span, Heteropoda maxima, the giant huntsman spider which lives in Laos. Its legs can grow as large as 1 foot and it also stands accused of spinning webs out of nightmares and feasting on children’s dreams."
	3:23pm Adrian in London: @Ken twitter.com...
	3:23pm The Contessa: @modchick, agree about the Bettye Swann
	3:23pm βrian: Spider eye arrangements: s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...
	3:24pm modchick65: I thought they were singing "Cathy's In Love." But I like "Cake Is Love" better.
	3:24pm djsheilab: @Cliff not in Prague! That giant Huntsman sounds quite terrifying. I met a Huntsman in Australia, but she was small. And fast! I slept the entire night with her near me on the wall. That took a bit of bravery.
	3:25pm modchick65: And, btw, Cake IS love.
	3:25pm djsheilab: @modchick The beauty of non-English speakers concocting English titles!
	3:25pm Sem Chumbo: Boom Boom, another Friday afternoom of sophistiqué, beaucoup. Hiya, Sheila, and all in the boom boom room.
	3:25pm βrian: I heard there's an annual Cake and [Something] Day.
	3:26pm modchick65: Flan is merely infatuation.
	3:27pm Cooh John: Cake for everyone!
	3:28pm JakeGould: Everyone hear about the United passenger bitten by a scorpion in the overhead compartment? A huge spider on the flight could have helped.
	3:29pm modchick65: I've had it with these mfing scorpions on this plane.
	3:29pm βrian: Boy, that's a really nice bathtub.
	3:30pm JakeGould: A few snakes on that plane might have helped as well.
	3:30pm NotARealDoctor: Don't scorpions eat spiders? I think it probably went something like this: Too many bugs on the United plane so they got some spiders, then everyone complained about the spiders so they got scorpions, if the passengers would've left the scorpions alone they were going to send in snakes to clean them up for the next flight.
	3:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks for the pic, Adrian. I like tossing flies into webs and watch the spider come running out for the feast. Also, tossing grasshoppers into water and waiting for fish to nab them.
	3:31pm JakeGould: Instead they kicked off a Vietnamese doctor who said the experience was worse than the fall of Saigon.
	3:32pm NotARealDoctor: Ken, you're only a sociopath if you're enjoying the bugs suffering. If you're enjoying feeding the fish and the spiders that makes you an animal lover! <3<3
	3:34pm Adrian in London: @Ken, So you're admitting that you're basically a serial killer in training? ;-)
	3:34pm JakeGould: And to be positive, “Sophisticated Boom Boom” is far more enjoyable than the fall of Saigon.
	3:34pm Rob Kopp: I always thought Boris the spider by The Who is the best spider song.
	3:35pm northguineahills: What about TMBG's "Spider"?
	3:35pm Adrian in London: @Rob Ahem, "Well Ziggy played guitar…"
	3:36pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Pretty much anything on WFMU is more enjoyable than the fall of Saigon, with the exception of Seven Second Delay and occasional episodes of Ken's show.
	3:36pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian. That's the best spider ALBUM
	3:38pm βrian: Who's Slayer?
	3:38pm JakeGould: When that doctor went back on the plane all bloodied mumbling “Kill me… Kill me…” that was when he heard “Seven Second Delay” in the airport after he was dragged off the plane.
	3:41pm Rob Kopp: It's on her album Unplugged and electrified. It also contains her beautiful version of Will you still love me tomorrow
	3:42pm fred: @JakeGould: That right there is the fatal flow in how United handled this: they should have started playing a Seven Second Delay episode in the plane, and announced that was the only thing available for the duration of the flight
	3:43pm Adrian in London: @Rob, The SONG, Rob, the SONG!!
	3:44pm Mike East: When my wife was pregnant 4 years ago, there was a BIG spider that built a web in our window. It freaked her out, so she had me knock it down...we were on the third floor. Afterwards, we really regretted it and said prayers of sorrow and asked the spider for forgiveness. Spiders still give us the heebie jeebies, but we try to be more hospitable to their right to a home.
	3:44pm Adrian in London: @Fred That story had something for everyone…
	3:45pm Sem Chumbo: Oo La La just about covers it, Betty Oh-So-Wright.
	3:46pm βrian: Valerie Carter Obit: www.tampabay.com...
	3:46pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian. Not for me. Love the creepy singing and thrilling guitar in Boris the spider. Great cover versions were done by The Kords and Joey Covington (on Mindrocker 3 and 12)
	3:49pm The Oscar: Maybe it's just that I grew up in a house in the woods full of bugs, but me and spiders have always gotten along just fine. I have a few friends who can't stand spiders, which makes them very easy to torment ;)
	3:49pm The Oscar: Also "Boris the Spider" is the first rock song I can remember listening to, and definitely the first one I understood.
	3:50pm fred: Coincidentally, Dengue Fever released a new video this week for One Thousand Tears of a Tarantula
	3:52pm βrian: What about our friends, the bats?
	3:56pm Rob Kopp: Great to Elastica again.
	3:56pm The Oscar: @Brian Touche :) A LOT of animals made their way into my house as a kid. Bats were among the more dramatic (along with the basement porcupines and the snakes in the walls). Spiders mostly just hung out (no pun intended).
	3:57pm Michael 98145: love me that Elastica
	3:58pm βrian: Ooh, I can just feel the fraying of the moral fabric of our nation. Sounds great, too.
	3:59pm Mandy: happy weekend everybody! if you're in North NJ, might I suggest the Branch brook park cherry trees now blooming.....day drink and karaoke
	4:01pm Rob Kopp: Love the orchestra in Lipstick; all kind of styles
	4:01pm Rob Kopp: In this way I can STAND disco
	4:03pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: akai = red aoi = blue murasaki = purple
	4:04pm βrian: And saba = mackerel, tasty mackerel.
	4:04pm JakeGould: Lazy, lazy. Makes your crazy. Take a nap. Your head gets hazy.
	4:05pm JakeGould: I really like “Walking on Sunshine.”
	4:05pm Adrian in London: @Cliff, OK, I'll bite, where are you, temporarily?
	4:06pm chalmers: "Easy Street" might be worthy of some sort of sampling.
	4:06pm βrian: In cognito?
	4:06pm The Oscar: "Tomorrow" mostly just makes me think of John Waters' "Serial Mom"
	4:06pm The Contessa: @Rob, STAND disco? Please leave the room! :-)
	4:06pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Adrian - Hiding out at my sister's house in an undisclosed location in Upstate NY
	4:07pm LouAsksDust: Walking on Sunshine is GREAT for getting yourself pumped the f up when doing something you hate but needs to be done. Necessary!
	4:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: Currently picking up supplies for the weekend. Happy to report that there are no spiders hiding out on Price Chomper's banana shelves.
	4:07pm Michael 98145: Akai Tori Kotori
	4:08pm modchick65: OMG. It sounds like Laura Branigan.
	4:08pm modchick65: And, to be clear, I mean that as a compliment.
	4:09pm βrian: I discovered that our bats like Arvo Pärt. They would sing along.
	4:10pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: I wasn't planning on going back to Prague this year, but there's this young lady I met last summer who's moving back there in June, so......... :)
	4:10pm Adrian in London: Yeah @Rob, I bet you would have been in the stadiums burning Chic albums. sets fire to Kinks albums
	4:12pm Adrian in London: @DJSheilaB Really liking this Juliette Armamet
	4:12pm djsheilab: YAY! I love LOVE STORIES! Very happy for you @Cliff.
	4:12pm modchick65: This Supremes song RULES.
	4:12pm Rob Kopp: Never owned a Chic album :-(
	4:13pm The Contessa: Oh Rob, Rob, Rob
	4:13pm Parq: Dept. of Mondagreens: When my 12 year old self first heard this song on the radio, I thought she had been born in an "old, cold, rundown tennis lawn".
	4:13pm Adrian in London: @Rob Oh, your loss, seriously
	4:13pm Itzall Ablurr: "Love Child" prompted me to sign-in and comment on it's GREATNESS. Man, oh man. SO good!
	4:13pm Parq: In fairness, it was a cheap transistor radio tuned to an AM station.
	4:13pm The Contessa: @modchick, once again, agreed
	4:14pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Thanks Sheila! <3
	4:14pm Rob Kopp: I only have the Spanish girl trio Las Chic and the American girl group Chic-Lets
	4:16pm The Contessa: @Rob, there is only one Chic
	4:16pm The Oscar: This comp looks amazing.
	4:16pm βrian: Stay seated, Little Miss Muffet.
	4:16pm Itzall Ablurr: Parq, speaking of eggcorns, what was that Sam Cooke "twist" song where he sings about "dancing with the Chicken Slacks?"
	4:16pm mzmm: ooh beatiful song
	4:16pm Rob Kopp: I prefer the chicks
	4:17pm TehBadDr: G'day Sheila and fellow Boom Boomers! Late to the game and a few dollars short, I need a proper job.
	4:17pm Adrian in London: @Sheila In May, @thecontessa and I will be absent for two weeks running, because of El Perro del Mar/a circus show and Sevdaliza, if you wanted to take a fortnight off…
	4:17pm @sugarwolf@: Hey, I have this album... And I had Fuzzy Felt growing up
	4:18pm Adrian in London: @sugarwolf Fuzzy Felt was great. I had a circus set.
	4:18pm mzmm: here becoming chat board rather then commenting place.
	4:18pm Anonymous Coward: The most beautiful S&G song
	4:18pm modchick65: Oh, wow. I thought this was This Is Ivy League.
	4:18pm Parq: This S&G is haunting.
	4:20pm MG: Loving today's set!
	4:20pm tomasz.: i've never set much stock in any Air record after the first one, but this is actually pretty good
	4:20pm Michael 98145: Really looking forward to receiving my copy - www.instagram.com...
	4:20pm KP: Hearing Air while in Paris is the most intense thing
	4:21pm Michael 98145: Everything sounds better in Boom Boom land. Or in Paris.
	4:21pm zopa: Are they wearing math gloves?!
	4:21pm Rob Kopp: The original is on Paul Simon's Songbook (solo), just like the originals of I am a rock and Sound of silence
	4:21pm djsheilab: @KP You're listening to this whilst in Paris? Ooh la la!
	4:23pm Rob Kopp: You can hear SBB EVERYWHERE! It only depends on where you are how late (for me it's always from 21-24)
	4:23pm djsheilab: Thanks @MG!
	4:26pm fred: @Rob: CET then. Are you in the Netherlands?
	4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...SewFistElatedBloomVrooom!...let it be so...
	4:27pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Rob, I'm back in EDT and trying to get adjusted to hearing Sheila from 3-6pm again. At least I can hear Daniel Blumin tonight w/out having to stay up til 3am!
	4:28pm Rob Kopp: @Fred: Yes I am. You as well? Fred is also a Dutch name
	4:29pm βrian: If I remember right, "Oh là là" means something like "Oh dear!" or "Yikes!"
	4:29pm KP: No, sorry just fond memories that go back to when that track was new.
	4:31pm JtotheK: Sequins was nice!
	4:31pm Carmichael: OK, back in the room. I see I missed Ms. Sadier, dammit.
	4:31pm fred: @Rob: No, I'm in a suburb of Paris. I took a wild guess based on your name and the big NL representation in WFMU listeners @βrian: I think that's correct, though I very rarely hear it
	4:33pm Rob Kopp: @Fred: Big NL representation? Not so many with SBB. With other programmes?
	4:33pm βrian: The first time I had really good sake, I nearly fell off the floor. It was so damn good!!
	4:35pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: An entomologist and a hypnotist walk into a bar in London...
	4:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Cliff - You old dog, you! (Congrats on meeting a new friend, actually.)
	4:36pm fred: @Rob: Well, there's Bas who's a HUGE supporter of the station, and Ajay who's always insightful. Maybe I was referring to quality more than quantity. I'm sure I'm also forgetting and slighting a few others
	4:36pm βrian: Foreign affairs are the best!
	4:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...their jaws move sideways - they have eight eyes - & digest their food outside their bodies w/ juices...it doesn't make them bad people...
	4:36pm tomasz.: Bas almost counts for big NL representation on his own
	4:37pm BennettCap: I love this story!
	4:37pm fred: @RRN63: at least they're not people, so they can't be that bad
	4:38pm Michael 98145: haha - i love this place. personally, i'm at war with ants.
	4:39pm Greg from ZONE 5: Good for you, Sheila!
	4:39pm Rob Kopp: When you only listen to SBB and Crayons To Perfume, which other WFMU-programmes are interesting? (1966 is my favourite pop year)
	4:39pm Michael 98145: bigly - www.instagram.com...
	4:39pm Itzall Ablurr: Word on the caretaking of spiders. When I see one in the house that seems "established", I assume he/she MUST be eating SOMETHING... and let it be.
	4:40pm Adrian in London: Oh, I LOVE TJO!!
	4:40pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Thanks KenHP! That was an intense story Sheila. Glad you're friends with the spiders now!
	4:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: Fear of record fairs! Wherever shall I turn?
	4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously - spiders eat flies & stuff. Every traditional culture reveres them. Bad mojo to kill them.
	4:41pm Michael 98145: isn't it almost record store day ? again
	4:42pm fred: @Rob: It's more garage than pop, but Bill Kelly has a thing for 1966 too (his show is Teenage Wasteland on Sundays 21-23)
	4:42pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Rob you'd probably like Gaylord Fields on Sunday evenings. & if you like garage rock, check out Bill Kelly before him, he's often playing stuff that came out around 1966
	4:44pm The Oscar: @Rob You might like Surface Noise as well-- a little more eclectic, but similarly sunny, and a lot of it skews from a similar period.
	4:45pm The Contessa: Liking this occasional man
	4:47pm Rob Kopp: I almost look in The Fuzz, Acid and Flowers book every week, so will definitely will listen to Bill Kelly and Gaylord Fields ... and Surface Noice. Thanks for mentioning
	4:47pm TehBadDr: This is wonderful and smoof!
	4:47pm Cooh John: Once did an interview with Louis Rawls. Hearing his voice in my headphones was out of this world!
	4:47pm Joe G.: ("You'll never find") another song from this man on radio, anywhere but here!! Recognized this fine voice immediately; very nice, Sheila!
	4:48pm Michael 98145: Lou certainly does have an unmistakable voice.
	4:48pm Michael 98145: bollywood! we dance !!
	4:49pm TehBadDr: Bollywood, I sit back and listen
	4:50pm tomasz.: Bollywood. great production decisions
	4:50pm Michael 98145: used to greedily acquire soundtrack cassettes from the indian grocers
	4:53pm Michael 98145: Asha and Lata known round the world
	4:54pm listener james from westwood: I don't think I knew this was the Pointer Sisters!
	4:54pm Whosondephone: Holy crap. I sought after the song two weeks ago.
	4:54pm Cheri Pi: I LOVE THIS SONG!!
	4:55pm SeanG: you got me dancing
	4:55pm Cheri Pi: me either, I thought this was a "new wave" group
	4:55pm The Contessa: @Cooh John, nice!
	4:55pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Good choice Sheila!!
	4:55pm Rob Kopp: I wouldn't have recognized this either
	4:56pm Whosondephone: From the soundtrack Grand Theft Auto Vice City
	4:56pm Rob Kopp: Are you sure this isn't Duran Duran?
	4:56pm Carmichael: Who's the guy singing with the Pointers?
	4:56pm TehBadDr: Rob, no way!
	4:57pm TehBadDr: Reminds me of Scritti Politti.
	4:57pm dale: had to log on to say how much i loved that 'spin spider spin' song and your spider story. and the air song made me feel all floaty.
	4:58pm WO Town Wick: That Spider story was inspirational.
	4:59pm Michael 98145: girl explosion !! :)
	4:59pm djsheilab: Thanks @Dale + @WO Town Wick!
	4:59pm Rob Kopp: Rookie? I hear Lookie! I'm almost sure I have told you already that I know a Kinks-bootleg with the song Lora
	5:00pm Carmichael: There was no guy on Automatic: that was Ruth Pointer! Well blow me down. And Jellybean Benitez on the dials.
	5:00pm βrian: Spiders could theoretically eat every human on Earth in one year www.washingtonpost.com...
	5:01pm Michael 98145: 귀여운 cute
	5:02pm Michael 98145: great set
	5:04pm Cooh John: @ The Contessa: It was sublime and surreal. Being at this year's Hoof & Mouth Sinfonia was close to that experience.
	5:04pm TehBadDr: Sacre bleu!
	5:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...who else in the whole world would make this set...& where else could we hear it...
	5:05pm Yvang: Wow! an anti cross dressing song!
	5:06pm michael z: What sublime froth. A boy in a mini skirt. Thank you.
	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& who else would wear it...
	5:07pm βrian: Oy. Gots to commute homeward. Çiao for now.
	5:08pm Adrian in London: Thank you, volunteers!
	5:09pm dale: isn't lyla (sp) michael sheeley's daughter? she's an adultish person now? can't believe deejay icepack on trouble's show yesterday. he can probably beat me up now.
	5:10pm basil: Hi Sheila B. just wanted to say hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend and that I'm so grateful for you on fridays,you really do make getting thru the week so much better,god bless you :)
	5:10pm annie: ok, tune-in keeps cutting out, i'm LIVE!!!
	5:12pm SeanG: love all the new stuff!
	5:13pm Cheri Pi: en.wikipedia.org...
	5:14pm Cheri Pi: story of the song Automatic ^
	5:14pm dale: this show is consistent in quality and surprise. SOOOO much great music new and old you share with us sheila that i've never heard.
	5:15pm Rob Kopp: @Cool John: my surrealistic experience, together with 15 other "students": a songwriter course of one week in 2001 by "teacher" Sir Ray Davies (of The Kinks). I'm quite proud of one song I wrote: Miss the kids. Search on this title and my name on YouTube, and you will both find a demo and the story behind it.
	5:15pm JtotheK: This Salena Jones is so so good! I gotta find this 45.
	5:15pm djsheilab: How great to read about "Automatic!" Thank you @Cheri Pi!
	5:15pm dale: ...like this - i would'a thousght dusty springfield. another great artist to do homework on.
	5:15pm Will from Seattle: The synth in this is amazing. Way ahead of its time for 67
	5:17pm basil: i loved that lowly song "still life" what great track,
	5:18pm djsheilab: @basil Thank you for your sweet sweet words!
	5:19pm dale: i gotta admit - i bought the 12 inch 45s of rebbe jackson's centipede and adele bertei's build me a bridge and stuff of that ilk. there was a lot of great sounds back then. people got excited when new music came out.
	5:19pm dale: wow - saada channels eartha kitt.
	5:22pm Michael 98145: whoa -
	5:23pm Adrian in London: @Sheila Good grief! You've gone below the waist with this track!!
	5:24pm The Contessa: @Adrian ha ha ha
	5:25pm modchick65: Ha. I always liked this song.
	5:25pm djsheilab: @Adrian in London Naughty indeed!
	5:25pm glenn: hey, nelly frittata.
	5:25pm modchick65: This and that "Torn" song.
	5:26pm nick: Eeeeeew!!??
	5:26pm djsheilab: Has enough time passed for this song? Clearly @nick thinks so! :)
	5:26pm Dominick: Yesss!
	5:26pm modchick65: @Nick Was that for me / Torn?
	5:27pm glenn: she has a new album out, i believe.
	5:27pm Adrian in London: @modchick Yes! Torn is a great track. But the Swedish singer who sang it originally really had the hump with Natalie Imbriglia
	5:28pm Michael 98145: let pop be pop
	5:28pm modchick65: I think it was one of those things where, by that point, I had stopped listening to the radio, so I would only hear bits of it in passing in shops and such. It had a good hook and, thus, was already miles ahead of Mariah.
	5:29pm modchick65: Natalie Imbriglia... that's right. She dated David Schwimmer from Friends.
	5:29pm ncjay: everything I've heard from this new Imelda is DEVASTATING. It's so wonderful
	5:30pm ncjay: and wow, what an image change!
	5:30pm modchick65: And why do I remember that?
	5:30pm Michael 98145: Saw Imelda May a few years back -- great show
	5:31pm Michael 98145: what ncjay said ...
	5:33pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian: thnx for Imelda May
	5:33pm Adrian in London: I heard the Imelda May track at about 5.30am on Irish radio on medium wave this morning and thought h crackles thought 'Wow, Sheila'll love tihs!'
	5:33pm βrian: Ah. I'm back.
	5:34pm glenn: well, she got divorced, and darrell higham was kinda the guy behind the rockabilly thing, at least that's my opinion.
	5:35pm fred: There's something I really like in this Sneaks track, but also something I really don't like
	5:36pm modchick65: 2017 is not sexy.
	5:37pm glenn: honestly, if i NEVER hear the word sexy ever again, that'll still be too soon.
	5:37pm P-90: Anyone out there ever gets a chance to see Imelda May sing live, seize the day, you will nit be disappointed. She tours sometimes singing in Jeff Beck's band
	5:39pm modchick65: 2017 is not saucy, either.
	5:39pm Adrian in London: Wow, this is is even better than Shakey's version!
	5:40pm djsheilab: But can't we make 2017 saucy n' sexy? Hmmm....I guess not. Hmm...
	5:40pm Adrian in London: @glenn "Sexy"
	5:41pm glenn: grrrrrrrrrrrr. :)
	5:42pm Adrian in London: Oh, glenn, you're so sexy when you're angry…
	5:42pm glenn: the imelda / jeff tribute show for les paul is genius.
	5:43pm dale: inkspots? or mills bros.

Listener comments!
	2:59pm βrian: Raspberry-Vanilla smoothie playlist: Bring on the boom!
	3:00pm P-90: It's time to Boom Boom!
	3:00pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Good afternoon Sheila & all you sophisticates
	3:01pm The Contessa: Hello Sheila! Hello everyone
	3:01pm Anonymous Coward: Sugoiiii, ne! Happy Good Friday Sheila and Fellow Boom-boomers
	3:02pm Rob Kopp: Hi Sheila, hello everyone, SBB time again
	3:02pm modchick65: CALGON.
	3:03pm doctorjazz: Hey, time for some Booming!
	3:03pm Adrian in London: Hello Sheila. Evening all, and yes, we DO know what's good for us, Bryce!
	3:03pm Anonymous Coward: Garoovy, Baby!
	3:03pm P-90: こんにちは Shira-san!
	3:04pm listener james from westwood: Afternoon, Sheila and all!!
	3:05pm sugarwolf: Mmmm jelly beans!
	3:05pm βrian: This is where Friday becomes a slippery slope.
	3:06pm ChrisB.: Sheila B-aby!
	3:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yesterday, MOAB. Pfft! Today, MOABB, the Mother Of All Boom Booms! Way more than 22 tons of hits in three hours. Go, Sheila!
	3:07pm JtotheK: Hi sheilaB, hi boom boomers. Liked the Jelly Beans track!
	3:07pm Carmichael: Heya Sheila and all those present in the Boom Boom room. I'll be taking my luncheon now; please don't play anything good until I get back ...
	3:08pm JtotheK: Now realizing it's late afternoon, a vacation day, and I've yet to have a beer. Oh my.
	3:08pm Adrian in London: OMG Sheila, just seen the photo on Twitter of you holding a tarantula. Was that some sort of therapy thingy? Our friend Tim is a etymologist and goes off to the jungles of Borneo to collect specimens. He was on TV doing a programme called Spider House, in which he filled a whole house with spiders, and the presenter had to spend the night there, in the name of science.
	3:08pm doctorjazz: Fridays are long radio days, too much good stuff on FMU!
	3:09pm P-90: Dig Jacqueline's rad Dorothy Hamil haircut
	3:09pm modchick65: Loving that surf-y guitar sound on this track.
	3:10pm listener james from westwood: I let spiders live in my apartment, as they eat a ton of bugs that sneak in through my crappy screens. If they get on my office desk I relocate them to a nearby wall.
	3:12pm NotARealDoctor: TGIATOF (Thank God it's After Three On Friday)!
	3:12pm djsheilab: G'afternoon Friday friends! I'm excited to tell you all my spider story later on in the show. Isn't this Molly Burch dreamy?
	3:13pm mzmm: hi SB! crazie troll lisnr here, luv yr sho jus'sayin'
	3:14pm βrian: Que dieu bénisse les chanteuses !
	3:15pm fred: Good afternoon Sheila, spiders, and listeners
	3:15pm northguineahills: Laetitia Sadier!
	3:16pm djsheilab: @Fred Yes! Let's all greet the spiders. @Listener James I'm so happy to hear you let the spiders live in your place. They are most helpful with mosquitos + other pests.
	3:19pm modchick65: Listening to SBB and messaging with childhood friend who is designing tshirts based on our junior high yearbook staff is a great way to end the week. And I freaking LOVE this Bettye Swann song.
	3:20pm Ken From Hyde Park: Haven't seen the spider picture. Is it as big as Califorctenus cacachilensis? www.smithsonianmag.com...
	3:20pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Spiders are awesome.
	3:22pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: From Ken's link - "While Cacachilensis is pretty good sized, it’s nowhere near the world's largest by leg span, Heteropoda maxima, the giant huntsman spider which lives in Laos. Its legs can grow as large as 1 foot and it also stands accused of spinning webs out of nightmares and feasting on children’s dreams."
	3:23pm Adrian in London: @Ken twitter.com...
	3:23pm The Contessa: @modchick, agree about the Bettye Swann
	3:23pm βrian: Spider eye arrangements: s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...
	3:24pm modchick65: I thought they were singing "Cathy's In Love." But I like "Cake Is Love" better.
	3:24pm djsheilab: @Cliff not in Prague! That giant Huntsman sounds quite terrifying. I met a Huntsman in Australia, but she was small. And fast! I slept the entire night with her near me on the wall. That took a bit of bravery.
	3:25pm modchick65: And, btw, Cake IS love.
	3:25pm djsheilab: @modchick The beauty of non-English speakers concocting English titles!
	3:25pm Sem Chumbo: Boom Boom, another Friday afternoom of sophistiqué, beaucoup. Hiya, Sheila, and all in the boom boom room.
	3:25pm βrian: I heard there's an annual Cake and [Something] Day.
	3:26pm modchick65: Flan is merely infatuation.
	3:27pm Cooh John: Cake for everyone!
	3:28pm JakeGould: Everyone hear about the United passenger bitten by a scorpion in the overhead compartment? A huge spider on the flight could have helped.
	3:29pm modchick65: I've had it with these mfing scorpions on this plane.
	3:29pm βrian: Boy, that's a really nice bathtub.
	3:30pm JakeGould: A few snakes on that plane might have helped as well.
	3:30pm NotARealDoctor: Don't scorpions eat spiders? I think it probably went something like this: Too many bugs on the United plane so they got some spiders, then everyone complained about the spiders so they got scorpions, if the passengers would've left the scorpions alone they were going to send in snakes to clean them up for the next flight.
	3:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks for the pic, Adrian. I like tossing flies into webs and watch the spider come running out for the feast. Also, tossing grasshoppers into water and waiting for fish to nab them.
	3:31pm JakeGould: Instead they kicked off a Vietnamese doctor who said the experience was worse than the fall of Saigon.
	3:32pm NotARealDoctor: Ken, you're only a sociopath if you're enjoying the bugs suffering. If you're enjoying feeding the fish and the spiders that makes you an animal lover! <3<3
	3:34pm Adrian in London: @Ken, So you're admitting that you're basically a serial killer in training? ;-)
	3:34pm JakeGould: And to be positive, “Sophisticated Boom Boom” is far more enjoyable than the fall of Saigon.
	3:34pm Rob Kopp: I always thought Boris the spider by The Who is the best spider song.
	3:35pm northguineahills: What about TMBG's "Spider"?
	3:35pm Adrian in London: @Rob Ahem, "Well Ziggy played guitar…"
	3:36pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Pretty much anything on WFMU is more enjoyable than the fall of Saigon, with the exception of Seven Second Delay and occasional episodes of Ken's show.
	3:36pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian. That's the best spider ALBUM
	3:38pm βrian: Who's Slayer?
	3:38pm JakeGould: When that doctor went back on the plane all bloodied mumbling “Kill me… Kill me…” that was when he heard “Seven Second Delay” in the airport after he was dragged off the plane.
	3:41pm Rob Kopp: It's on her album Unplugged and electrified. It also contains her beautiful version of Will you still love me tomorrow
	3:42pm fred: @JakeGould: That right there is the fatal flow in how United handled this: they should have started playing a Seven Second Delay episode in the plane, and announced that was the only thing available for the duration of the flight
	3:43pm Adrian in London: @Rob, The SONG, Rob, the SONG!!
	3:44pm Mike East: When my wife was pregnant 4 years ago, there was a BIG spider that built a web in our window. It freaked her out, so she had me knock it down...we were on the third floor. Afterwards, we really regretted it and said prayers of sorrow and asked the spider for forgiveness. Spiders still give us the heebie jeebies, but we try to be more hospitable to their right to a home.
	3:44pm Adrian in London: @Fred That story had something for everyone…
	3:45pm Sem Chumbo: Oo La La just about covers it, Betty Oh-So-Wright.
	3:46pm βrian: Valerie Carter Obit: www.tampabay.com...
	3:46pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian. Not for me. Love the creepy singing and thrilling guitar in Boris the spider. Great cover versions were done by The Kords and Joey Covington (on Mindrocker 3 and 12)
	3:49pm The Oscar: Maybe it's just that I grew up in a house in the woods full of bugs, but me and spiders have always gotten along just fine. I have a few friends who can't stand spiders, which makes them very easy to torment ;)
	3:49pm The Oscar: Also "Boris the Spider" is the first rock song I can remember listening to, and definitely the first one I understood.
	3:50pm fred: Coincidentally, Dengue Fever released a new video this week for One Thousand Tears of a Tarantula
	3:52pm βrian: What about our friends, the bats?
	3:56pm Rob Kopp: Great to Elastica again.
	3:56pm The Oscar: @Brian Touche :) A LOT of animals made their way into my house as a kid. Bats were among the more dramatic (along with the basement porcupines and the snakes in the walls). Spiders mostly just hung out (no pun intended).
	3:57pm Michael 98145: love me that Elastica
	3:58pm βrian: Ooh, I can just feel the fraying of the moral fabric of our nation. Sounds great, too.
	3:59pm Mandy: happy weekend everybody! if you're in North NJ, might I suggest the Branch brook park cherry trees now blooming.....day drink and karaoke
	4:01pm Rob Kopp: Love the orchestra in Lipstick; all kind of styles
	4:01pm Rob Kopp: In this way I can STAND disco
	4:03pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: akai = red aoi = blue murasaki = purple
	4:04pm βrian: And saba = mackerel, tasty mackerel.
	4:04pm JakeGould: Lazy, lazy. Makes your crazy. Take a nap. Your head gets hazy.
	4:05pm JakeGould: I really like “Walking on Sunshine.”
	4:05pm Adrian in London: @Cliff, OK, I'll bite, where are you, temporarily?
	4:06pm chalmers: "Easy Street" might be worthy of some sort of sampling.
	4:06pm βrian: In cognito?
	4:06pm The Oscar: "Tomorrow" mostly just makes me think of John Waters' "Serial Mom"
	4:06pm The Contessa: @Rob, STAND disco? Please leave the room! :-)
	4:06pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Adrian - Hiding out at my sister's house in an undisclosed location in Upstate NY
	4:07pm LouAsksDust: Walking on Sunshine is GREAT for getting yourself pumped the f up when doing something you hate but needs to be done. Necessary!
	4:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: Currently picking up supplies for the weekend. Happy to report that there are no spiders hiding out on Price Chomper's banana shelves.
	4:07pm Michael 98145: Akai Tori Kotori
	4:08pm modchick65: OMG. It sounds like Laura Branigan.
	4:08pm modchick65: And, to be clear, I mean that as a compliment.
	4:09pm βrian: I discovered that our bats like Arvo Pärt. They would sing along.
	4:10pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: I wasn't planning on going back to Prague this year, but there's this young lady I met last summer who's moving back there in June, so......... :)
	4:10pm Adrian in London: Yeah @Rob, I bet you would have been in the stadiums burning Chic albums. sets fire to Kinks albums
	4:12pm Adrian in London: @DJSheilaB Really liking this Juliette Armamet
	4:12pm djsheilab: YAY! I love LOVE STORIES! Very happy for you @Cliff.
	4:12pm modchick65: This Supremes song RULES.
	4:12pm Rob Kopp: Never owned a Chic album :-(
	4:13pm The Contessa: Oh Rob, Rob, Rob
	4:13pm Parq: Dept. of Mondagreens: When my 12 year old self first heard this song on the radio, I thought she had been born in an "old, cold, rundown tennis lawn".
	4:13pm Adrian in London: @Rob Oh, your loss, seriously
	4:13pm Itzall Ablurr: "Love Child" prompted me to sign-in and comment on it's GREATNESS. Man, oh man. SO good!
	4:13pm Parq: In fairness, it was a cheap transistor radio tuned to an AM station.
	4:13pm The Contessa: @modchick, once again, agreed
	4:14pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Thanks Sheila! <3
	4:14pm Rob Kopp: I only have the Spanish girl trio Las Chic and the American girl group Chic-Lets
	4:16pm The Contessa: @Rob, there is only one Chic
	4:16pm The Oscar: This comp looks amazing.
	4:16pm βrian: Stay seated, Little Miss Muffet.
	4:16pm Itzall Ablurr: Parq, speaking of eggcorns, what was that Sam Cooke "twist" song where he sings about "dancing with the Chicken Slacks?"
	4:16pm mzmm: ooh beatiful song
	4:16pm Rob Kopp: I prefer the chicks
	4:17pm TehBadDr: G'day Sheila and fellow Boom Boomers! Late to the game and a few dollars short, I need a proper job.
	4:17pm Adrian in London: @Sheila In May, @thecontessa and I will be absent for two weeks running, because of El Perro del Mar/a circus show and Sevdaliza, if you wanted to take a fortnight off…
	4:17pm @sugarwolf@: Hey, I have this album... And I had Fuzzy Felt growing up
	4:18pm Adrian in London: @sugarwolf Fuzzy Felt was great. I had a circus set.
	4:18pm mzmm: here becoming chat board rather then commenting place.
	4:18pm Anonymous Coward: The most beautiful S&G song
	4:18pm modchick65: Oh, wow. I thought this was This Is Ivy League.
	4:18pm Parq: This S&G is haunting.
	4:20pm MG: Loving today's set!
	4:20pm tomasz.: i've never set much stock in any Air record after the first one, but this is actually pretty good
	4:20pm Michael 98145: Really looking forward to receiving my copy - www.instagram.com...
	4:20pm KP: Hearing Air while in Paris is the most intense thing
	4:21pm Michael 98145: Everything sounds better in Boom Boom land. Or in Paris.
	4:21pm zopa: Are they wearing math gloves?!
	4:21pm Rob Kopp: The original is on Paul Simon's Songbook (solo), just like the originals of I am a rock and Sound of silence
	4:21pm djsheilab: @KP You're listening to this whilst in Paris? Ooh la la!
	4:23pm Rob Kopp: You can hear SBB EVERYWHERE! It only depends on where you are how late (for me it's always from 21-24)
	4:23pm djsheilab: Thanks @MG!
	4:26pm fred: @Rob: CET then. Are you in the Netherlands?
	4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...SewFistElatedBloomVrooom!...let it be so...
	4:27pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Rob, I'm back in EDT and trying to get adjusted to hearing Sheila from 3-6pm again. At least I can hear Daniel Blumin tonight w/out having to stay up til 3am!
	4:28pm Rob Kopp: @Fred: Yes I am. You as well? Fred is also a Dutch name
	4:29pm βrian: If I remember right, "Oh là là" means something like "Oh dear!" or "Yikes!"
	4:29pm KP: No, sorry just fond memories that go back to when that track was new.
	4:31pm JtotheK: Sequins was nice!
	4:31pm Carmichael: OK, back in the room. I see I missed Ms. Sadier, dammit.
	4:31pm fred: @Rob: No, I'm in a suburb of Paris. I took a wild guess based on your name and the big NL representation in WFMU listeners @βrian: I think that's correct, though I very rarely hear it
	4:33pm Rob Kopp: @Fred: Big NL representation? Not so many with SBB. With other programmes?
	4:33pm βrian: The first time I had really good sake, I nearly fell off the floor. It was so damn good!!
	4:35pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: An entomologist and a hypnotist walk into a bar in London...
	4:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Cliff - You old dog, you! (Congrats on meeting a new friend, actually.)
	4:36pm fred: @Rob: Well, there's Bas who's a HUGE supporter of the station, and Ajay who's always insightful. Maybe I was referring to quality more than quantity. I'm sure I'm also forgetting and slighting a few others
	4:36pm βrian: Foreign affairs are the best!
	4:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...their jaws move sideways - they have eight eyes - & digest their food outside their bodies w/ juices...it doesn't make them bad people...
	4:36pm tomasz.: Bas almost counts for big NL representation on his own
	4:37pm BennettCap: I love this story!
	4:37pm fred: @RRN63: at least they're not people, so they can't be that bad
	4:38pm Michael 98145: haha - i love this place. personally, i'm at war with ants.
	4:39pm Greg from ZONE 5: Good for you, Sheila!
	4:39pm Rob Kopp: When you only listen to SBB and Crayons To Perfume, which other WFMU-programmes are interesting? (1966 is my favourite pop year)
	4:39pm Michael 98145: bigly - www.instagram.com...
	4:39pm Itzall Ablurr: Word on the caretaking of spiders. When I see one in the house that seems "established", I assume he/she MUST be eating SOMETHING... and let it be.
	4:40pm Adrian in London: Oh, I LOVE TJO!!
	4:40pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Thanks KenHP! That was an intense story Sheila. Glad you're friends with the spiders now!
	4:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: Fear of record fairs! Wherever shall I turn?
	4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously - spiders eat flies & stuff. Every traditional culture reveres them. Bad mojo to kill them.
	4:41pm Michael 98145: isn't it almost record store day ? again
	4:42pm fred: @Rob: It's more garage than pop, but Bill Kelly has a thing for 1966 too (his show is Teenage Wasteland on Sundays 21-23)
	4:42pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Rob you'd probably like Gaylord Fields on Sunday evenings. & if you like garage rock, check out Bill Kelly before him, he's often playing stuff that came out around 1966
	4:44pm The Oscar: @Rob You might like Surface Noise as well-- a little more eclectic, but similarly sunny, and a lot of it skews from a similar period.
	4:45pm The Contessa: Liking this occasional man
	4:47pm Rob Kopp: I almost look in The Fuzz, Acid and Flowers book every week, so will definitely will listen to Bill Kelly and Gaylord Fields ... and Surface Noice. Thanks for mentioning
	4:47pm TehBadDr: This is wonderful and smoof!
	4:47pm Cooh John: Once did an interview with Louis Rawls. Hearing his voice in my headphones was out of this world!
	4:47pm Joe G.: ("You'll never find") another song from this man on radio, anywhere but here!! Recognized this fine voice immediately; very nice, Sheila!
	4:48pm Michael 98145: Lou certainly does have an unmistakable voice.
	4:48pm Michael 98145: bollywood! we dance !!
	4:49pm TehBadDr: Bollywood, I sit back and listen
	4:50pm tomasz.: Bollywood. great production decisions
	4:50pm Michael 98145: used to greedily acquire soundtrack cassettes from the indian grocers
	4:53pm Michael 98145: Asha and Lata known round the world
	4:54pm listener james from westwood: I don't think I knew this was the Pointer Sisters!
	4:54pm Whosondephone: Holy crap. I sought after the song two weeks ago.
	4:54pm Cheri Pi: I LOVE THIS SONG!!
	4:55pm SeanG: you got me dancing
	4:55pm Cheri Pi: me either, I thought this was a "new wave" group
	4:55pm The Contessa: @Cooh John, nice!
	4:55pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Good choice Sheila!!
	4:55pm Rob Kopp: I wouldn't have recognized this either
	4:56pm Whosondephone: From the soundtrack Grand Theft Auto Vice City
	4:56pm Rob Kopp: Are you sure this isn't Duran Duran?
	4:56pm Carmichael: Who's the guy singing with the Pointers?
	4:56pm TehBadDr: Rob, no way!
	4:57pm TehBadDr: Reminds me of Scritti Politti.
	4:57pm dale: had to log on to say how much i loved that 'spin spider spin' song and your spider story. and the air song made me feel all floaty.
	4:58pm WO Town Wick: That Spider story was inspirational.
	4:59pm Michael 98145: girl explosion !! :)
	4:59pm djsheilab: Thanks @Dale + @WO Town Wick!
	4:59pm Rob Kopp: Rookie? I hear Lookie! I'm almost sure I have told you already that I know a Kinks-bootleg with the song Lora
	5:00pm Carmichael: There was no guy on Automatic: that was Ruth Pointer! Well blow me down. And Jellybean Benitez on the dials.
	5:00pm βrian: Spiders could theoretically eat every human on Earth in one year www.washingtonpost.com...
	5:01pm Michael 98145: 귀여운 cute
	5:02pm Michael 98145: great set
	5:04pm Cooh John: @ The Contessa: It was sublime and surreal. Being at this year's Hoof & Mouth Sinfonia was close to that experience.
	5:04pm TehBadDr: Sacre bleu!
	5:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...who else in the whole world would make this set...& where else could we hear it...
	5:05pm Yvang: Wow! an anti cross dressing song!
	5:06pm michael z: What sublime froth. A boy in a mini skirt. Thank you.
	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& who else would wear it...
	5:07pm βrian: Oy. Gots to commute homeward. Çiao for now.
	5:08pm Adrian in London: Thank you, volunteers!
	5:09pm dale: isn't lyla (sp) michael sheeley's daughter? she's an adultish person now? can't believe deejay icepack on trouble's show yesterday. he can probably beat me up now.
	5:10pm basil: Hi Sheila B. just wanted to say hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend and that I'm so grateful for you on fridays,you really do make getting thru the week so much better,god bless you :)
	5:10pm annie: ok, tune-in keeps cutting out, i'm LIVE!!!
	5:12pm SeanG: love all the new stuff!
	5:13pm Cheri Pi: en.wikipedia.org...
	5:14pm Cheri Pi: story of the song Automatic ^
	5:14pm dale: this show is consistent in quality and surprise. SOOOO much great music new and old you share with us sheila that i've never heard.
	5:15pm Rob Kopp: @Cool John: my surrealistic experience, together with 15 other "students": a songwriter course of one week in 2001 by "teacher" Sir Ray Davies (of The Kinks). I'm quite proud of one song I wrote: Miss the kids. Search on this title and my name on YouTube, and you will both find a demo and the story behind it.
	5:15pm JtotheK: This Salena Jones is so so good! I gotta find this 45.
	5:15pm djsheilab: How great to read about "Automatic!" Thank you @Cheri Pi!
	5:15pm dale: ...like this - i would'a thousght dusty springfield. another great artist to do homework on.
	5:15pm Will from Seattle: The synth in this is amazing. Way ahead of its time for 67
	5:17pm basil: i loved that lowly song "still life" what great track,
	5:18pm djsheilab: @basil Thank you for your sweet sweet words!
	5:19pm dale: i gotta admit - i bought the 12 inch 45s of rebbe jackson's centipede and adele bertei's build me a bridge and stuff of that ilk. there was a lot of great sounds back then. people got excited when new music came out.
	5:19pm dale: wow - saada channels eartha kitt.
	5:22pm Michael 98145: whoa -
	5:23pm Adrian in London: @Sheila Good grief! You've gone below the waist with this track!!
	5:24pm The Contessa: @Adrian ha ha ha
	5:25pm modchick65: Ha. I always liked this song.
	5:25pm djsheilab: @Adrian in London Naughty indeed!
	5:25pm glenn: hey, nelly frittata.
	5:25pm modchick65: This and that "Torn" song.
	5:26pm nick: Eeeeeew!!??
	5:26pm djsheilab: Has enough time passed for this song? Clearly @nick thinks so! :)
	5:26pm Dominick: Yesss!
	5:26pm modchick65: @Nick Was that for me / Torn?
	5:27pm glenn: she has a new album out, i believe.
	5:27pm Adrian in London: @modchick Yes! Torn is a great track. But the Swedish singer who sang it originally really had the hump with Natalie Imbriglia
	5:28pm Michael 98145: let pop be pop
	5:28pm modchick65: I think it was one of those things where, by that point, I had stopped listening to the radio, so I would only hear bits of it in passing in shops and such. It had a good hook and, thus, was already miles ahead of Mariah.
	5:29pm modchick65: Natalie Imbriglia... that's right. She dated David Schwimmer from Friends.
	5:29pm ncjay: everything I've heard from this new Imelda is DEVASTATING. It's so wonderful
	5:30pm ncjay: and wow, what an image change!
	5:30pm modchick65: And why do I remember that?
	5:30pm Michael 98145: Saw Imelda May a few years back -- great show
	5:31pm Michael 98145: what ncjay said ...
	5:33pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian: thnx for Imelda May
	5:33pm Adrian in London: I heard the Imelda May track at about 5.30am on Irish radio on medium wave this morning and thought h crackles thought 'Wow, Sheila'll love tihs!'
	5:33pm βrian: Ah. I'm back.
	5:34pm glenn: well, she got divorced, and darrell higham was kinda the guy behind the rockabilly thing, at least that's my opinion.
	5:35pm fred: There's something I really like in this Sneaks track, but also something I really don't like
	5:36pm modchick65: 2017 is not sexy.
	5:37pm glenn: honestly, if i NEVER hear the word sexy ever again, that'll still be too soon.
	5:37pm P-90: Anyone out there ever gets a chance to see Imelda May sing live, seize the day, you will nit be disappointed. She tours sometimes singing in Jeff Beck's band
	5:39pm modchick65: 2017 is not saucy, either.
	5:39pm Adrian in London: Wow, this is is even better than Shakey's version!
	5:40pm djsheilab: But can't we make 2017 saucy n' sexy? Hmmm....I guess not. Hmm...
	5:40pm Adrian in London: @glenn "Sexy"
	5:41pm glenn: grrrrrrrrrrrr. :)
	5:42pm Adrian in London: Oh, glenn, you're so sexy when you're angry…
	5:42pm glenn: the imelda / jeff tribute show for les paul is genius.
	5:43pm dale: inkspots? or mills bros.
	5:44pm dale: d'oh!
	5:44pm Michael 98145: DJ Sheila is always bringing treat out of her basket
	5:44pm Michael 98145: - treats
	5:45pm SeanG: that "dreamer" song by coco morier is so good!
	5:45pm michael z: This is so touching (if a little weird).
	5:47pm Adrian in London: This Lynette Williams is lovely
	5:48pm djsheilab: @SeanG I shall play it again for you soon. I adore it too.
	5:50pm fred: Gillian Hills played in Beat Girl, whose soundtrack has been used as a bed music by Bob Brainen
	5:51pm melinda: Enjoying the show today.
	5:52pm djsheilab: Thanks @melinda!
	5:54pm michael z: What a perfect coda to a great show. And Damon and Justine reunited for an afternoon. Thank you Sheila.
	5:54pm modchick65: Not a Gorillaz fan, but this is a good song.
	5:54pm βrian: @melinda: Is that a muskellunge?
	5:54pm SeanG: Thanks Sheila! sublime show today
	5:54pm P-90: Thanks so much, as usual, @DJ Sheila B!

	5:55pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Thanks Sheila! See you next week <3
	5:55pm fred: Lynette Williams reminded me of Charlene Darling (the French one). There's some stuff on the FMA:freemusicarchive.org... But Tony Coulter has much more (probably in the station's library too)
	5:56pm Michael 98145: Thanks again, DJ Sheila. And we have the archive to enjoy.
	5:57pm Adrian in London: Thanks Sheila, what a lovely show, and lovely way to end it. xx
	5:58pm The Contessa: Thinking of going to see Rumer in a forest, or something. Lovely voice! Thanks DJ Sheila for a beautiful show, as ever. Happy weekend everyone
	5:58pm βrian: Merci. Au Revoir. Au Revoir. Au Revoir ...
	5:58pm Rob Kopp: Rumer always reminds me of P.F. Sloan (not only her song, but also the fantastic songwriter). Perfect end to another 3 hours radio. Thanks Shelia
	5:59pm listener james from westwood: Muchas gracias, Sheila, always a delight!
	6:00pm Michael 98145: - possibly our favorite sister ..
	6:00pm Dominick: Thanks Sheila !
	6:01pm djsheilab: Thank you for tuning in everyone! Have a lovely spring weekend + see you next week. Xoxoxo
