Listener comments!
	10:02pm Gary: Listening as I break down the set
	10:02pm Cal Zone!: TESTIFY, BABY!
	10:02pm Funky16Corners: Cal! Gary!
	10:03pm Jeff Ash: It is 7 below zero with a wind chill of 10 to 15 below in Green Bay at this moment. I am counting on you to bring some heat.
	10:04pm Funky16Corners: Hey Jeff! I shall oblige!
	10:05pm coelacanth∅: greetings Larry et al.
	10:06pm Funky16Corners: Hey C!
	10:06pm Uncle Michael: Larry!
	10:07pm Funky16Corners: Hey Unk!
	10:07pm still b/p: Luz me some organ. This gonna be good. 2 degrees here, headed to five below, with wind chills to -22. So, yes, bring some heat, and some oil for the heat.
	10:08pm geezerette: Oh it's HOT baby! Hippiest on the strip.
	10:08pm Funky16Corners: Hey SBP! Mighty cold here but nothing like the midwest.
	10:08pm Funky16Corners: Geezerette! Full house! Please move to the rear of the car!
	10:09pm Funky16Corners: Watch your elbows people!
	10:09pm geezerette: I'm already there!
	10:10pm geezerette: Billy Preston! Billy Preston!
	10:11pm coelacanth∅: Yes! Yes!!
	10:11pm Funky16Corners: Young Billy Preston!
	10:11pm coelacanth∅: this is the earliest Billy i've ever heard!
	10:11pm still b/p: I'm on NE coast. But the moderating effect of the ocean...where's THAT at this evenin'?!
	10:13pm Funky16Corners: @C - I'll have to do a whole set of early Billy some night.
	10:14pm coelacanth∅: i'm there!
	10:14pm coelacanth∅: ("Little Billy Preston"?)
	10:15pm Funky16Corners: He recorded quite a lot before hooking up with the Beatles and then having his hits with A&M, for Derby, Veejay and Capitol
	10:15pm Cal Zone!: LG's pulling out the BIG ORGAN wax!
	10:16pm geezerette: Those Beatles had taste.
	10:17pm coelacanth∅: honestly i never heard anything made before he was a beatle.
	10:21pm Gary: I never got the Love Saves the Day = LSD connection, duh
	10:24pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, if you watch The Deuce on HBO they do a little mini-tribute to Mancuso using this very song
	10:25pm Funky16Corners: There's a 45 edit of this track but you have to hear the full, LP version
	10:27pm Uncle Michael: Best falsetto? Eddie or Curtis?
	10:28pm Funky16Corners: Eddie, though Curtis was a much fuller bench talent-wise, i.e. guitar, songwriter, producer, arranger
	10:30pm Uncle Michael: I'll endorse that view.
	10:30pm Funky16Corners: I also like to think of Curtis's voice as kind of naturally high/sweet, less of an effort than a falsetto
	10:32pm Jeff Ash: Hm. I don't have this Eddie Kendricks LP. Makes note to get it.
	10:33pm Uncle Michael: I can hear that but it's definitely head-voice and not from the diaphragm.
	10:33pm Funky16Corners: @Jeff - People Hold On is a must-have
	10:34pm Funky16Corners: @UM - I agree
	10:35pm Funky16Corners: This record often comes as a shock to folks that only know Green Onions
	10:35pm Uncle Michael: I thought this was a destination:OUT mic break.
	10:36pm Funky16Corners: Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep groove
	10:37pm Uncle Michael: I'm playing a track off the Melting Pot album this week.
	10:37pm Funky16Corners: Chicken Pox???
	10:37pm Uncle Michael: That would be telling.
	10:38pm Funky16Corners: Shhhhhhhh....
	10:38pm still b/p: The Soul Clap guy, DJ Jonathan Toubin, is doing a gig locally in a couple weeks. Listening to some of these Drummer stream shows in recent days, I'm thinking, "Soul Clap guy must be familiar with nearly everything, but has he got THIS? Hope so!"
	10:39pm Funky16Corners: Toubin has good taste and deep crates
	10:41pm geezerette: Takes one to know one.
	10:42pm Funky16Corners: Pshaw....
	10:42pm Jeff Ash: Ah, "The Mexican." A staple of the old late-night free-form FM radio.
	10:42pm Funky16Corners: I love this record! There's also a 45 edit with an extended version of the segment that interpolates 'For a Few Dollars More'
	10:43pm northguineahills: Here for Testify!
	10:43pm Funky16Corners: NGH!
	10:46pm northguineahills: I think Doug has played that Babe Ruth track before.
	10:47pm Funky16Corners: It was part of the Loft playlists, and then a few year later Kool Herc made it a b-boy staple up in the Bronx.
	10:47pm still b/p: Heard something today that intersected with a few interesting notes from FMU discussions in last couple months: the male vocalist on Mah Na Mah Na also did the whistling bits in the spaghetti soundtracks for Leone..such as For A Few Dollars More.
	10:48pm Uncle Michael: I'm gonna get my beauty sleep. Heading for Kansas City at 8:00 AM for a round of unrepentant foodie shopping, getting my knives sharpened and maybe one record store... Lullaby me, Larry. Thanks!
	10:48pm Funky16Corners: Alessandro Alessandroni!
	10:48pm Funky16Corners: Nite Unk!
	10:48pm Funky16Corners: We're traveling tomorrow as well
	10:49pm Funky16Corners: @SBP - Alessandroni was a guitarist, too
	10:49pm Uncle Michael: If you haven't seen the original film scene that gave the world Ma Na Ma Na, seek it on Youtube.
	10:49pm Uncle Michael: Night all.
	10:50pm Cal Zone!: Long hairy set, Larry! Digging it!
	10:50pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Cal!
	10:51pm still b/p: I checked segments of "Svezia, inferno e paradiso," but don't think I saw the particular scene. Resolution for 2018.
	10:51pm northguineahills: @UM: Says guy that lives a few time zones west of myself and others (going to sleep soon too, the holidays didn't afford me any sleep).
	10:53pm Funky16Corners: EVERYBODY DANCE!
	10:55pm geezerette: ...On the drums like the Nicholas brothers...
	10:56pm Funky16Corners: Drums, pots, pans, whatever makes the right kind of noise
	10:57pm geezerette: !!! :D
	11:09pm coelacanth∅: damn this song always transports me to specific time and scenario. ...lots of hash, sitting in a small rectangular room with only a red light bulb on the ceiling; talking about revolution when outside my friend's room disco and southern rock were the order of the day.
	11:10pm Funky16Corners: This album, almost moreso than Highway 61 is literary. Amazing songs filled with amazing words
	11:11pm geezerette: I always hear lines I've never heard before.
	11:11pm Funky16Corners: Yes, indeed. It's densely layered
	11:11pm coelacanth∅: my 2 favorite Dylan albums. glad i never had to choose one over the other.
	11:11pm geezerette: And they always sound like truth!
	11:12pm Funky16Corners: Mine too. I was only a little kid then, but it's now easy to see why people flipped over Dylan
	11:13pm northguineahills: I was a late-comer to Dylan, but this song etched it in my sonic psychology. (I think I came to this song when I was 26, but I started to like Dylan when I was 24). I just listened to Mutations in my car last Friday (been listening my cd in abc order, b/c hey, my new to me car has a cd player that plays 20 year old cdrs).
	11:14pm Funky16Corners: I love most prime-era Beck, but this album especially.
	11:15pm Funky16Corners: Saw him live twice, once when he was touring for Loser and then again for Odelay (with Yo La Tengo opening), both great shows
	11:15pm northguineahills: Even Beck's crap is fun!
	11:15pm coelacanth∅: i heard an interesting version of "masters of war" recently by Charles Lloyd and the marvels...interesting because i wouldn't expect a horn-based version of a particularly stark Dylan song to be good.
	11:16pm Funky16Corners: I'd like to hear that! Leon Russell did a cool version
	11:21pm northguineahills: Yeah, i've seen Beck twice live as well. My wife, and my ex-gfs all had crushes on him. Still, the best Beck connected show I saw was Peanut Butter Wolf (Beck's dj for Odelay) play for 30 people in a coffee shop wearing a white leisure suit ready to yacht rock out, dj. He (literally) burned through vinyl and used/abused vinyl I hadn't seen this side of Marclay/Yoshihide.
	11:22pm coelacanth∅: (heh -Love Saves the Day)
	11:22pm Funky16Corners: @NGH - PBW is great!
	11:24pm coelacanth∅: i think my favorite ja album, but maybe it's crown of creation.
	11:25pm northguineahills: Might fade out, if so, danks vielmals, Larry!
	11:26pm Funky16Corners: Severely underrated band. Damned by the omnipresence of Somebody To Love and White Rabbit. So much deeper. Also damned by We Built This City, but that is another thing entirely
	11:26pm Funky16Corners: Nite NGH!
	11:29pm coelacanth∅: yeah the really great songs never seem to make the rounds. ...i like somebody to Love and white rabbit too, but - i kind of can't stand Grace Slick! -i've heard lots of shit for that opinion!
	11:30pm coelacanth∅: gnight ngh
	11:31pm Funky16Corners: I prefer Grace when she's singing in tandem with Marty
	11:33pm geezerette: Well, it all sounds like mulled cider and mu tea at the Moonfire. More I cannot say.
	11:35pm Funky16Corners: That sounds like a good thing.
	11:35pm coelacanth∅: absolutely. Marty's voice was quite beautiful and she was subdued when they sang together. the 2 complimented each other. ...and maybe she pushed too hard when she had the full attention.
	11:37pm coelacanth∅: i could go for some mulled cider
	11:37pm Funky16Corners: I was craving a crisp, hard cider, but I never drink on show night
	11:40pm geezerette: It's a good winter drink,isn't it? On the other hand, hard cider, mmm... What a lovely set. Perfect winter night mood. :)
	11:40pm coelacanth∅: i can count on one hand the times i've had a hard cider; but it sounds very good right now.
	11:40pm Funky16Corners: Thanks G!
	11:41pm Funky16Corners: I LOVE hard cider. One of my Christmas gifts was freezable pint glasses. A Stringbow Orange Blossom cider in one of those is a little bit of heaven!
	11:41pm geezerette: Thank YOU, Larry!
	11:42pm Funky16Corners: @C - Way back when, some friends led me astray into an Irish immigrant bar in Trenton, NJ where I was introduced to the wonders of cold cider on draft. It gace me the worst headache/hangover, but it tasted so good.
	11:42pm coelacanth∅: there's an overpriced but not entirely un-worth it "wine bar" in town that has mulled wine when it's cold out and it's pretty special.
	11:42pm Funky16Corners: Mmmmmmmm
	11:43pm geezerette: That sounds great! Are actual orange blossoms ore peel used in brewing it?
	11:43pm Funky16Corners: I think so
	11:44pm Funky16Corners: They make a ginger and a cherry variety, too. Great and not overpriced.
	11:45pm coelacanth∅: yeah i've never heard of that one. i know my usual pub has at least 2 brands of cider. i'm told one is not as sweet as the average cider. maybe tomorrow.
	11:47pm Funky16Corners: I like the sweeter ones, but a nice, dry cider hits the spot now and again.
	11:48pm coelacanth∅: i think i'd like a sweet one, but i'm much more likely to get a headache from that.
	11:49pm Funky16Corners: The headache I got the first time I got drunk on cider felt like the grim reaper stepping on my head.
	11:49pm Funky16Corners: SOOOOOOOOOOO much sugar
	11:50pm coelacanth∅: -oh, strongbow is from england; so i guess there's as much chance of me finding it here as you having it there.
	11:51pm Funky16Corners: I think it's shipped in from Belgium, but it's everywhere around here.I'm guessing some big conglomerate imports it
	11:54pm coelacanth∅: i'm looking for it. orange blossoms. the oil, known as neroli, is known in aromatherapy for anti-depressive action.
	11:55pm Funky16Corners: I'm a citrus nut, orange, lemon, lime flavors will always draw me in. My favorite drink in the world is the cool lime refresher at Starbucks. I could drink it all day long.
	11:57pm geezerette: Thanks for this show,Larry! Good Night & Happpy New Year. You too,Coel.
	11:58pm coelacanth∅: i love oranges but somehow rarely eat them. the only fruit i eat often is lemon, and that's either in/on food or in water.
	11:58pm coelacanth∅: 'night g
	11:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Larry Excellent as usual! good night
	12:02am coelacanth∅: (...actually neroli might be from a very specific type of orange. other citrus oils are known to be uplifting as well - esp. lemon, tangerine, orange)
	12:02am Funky16Corners: Thanks C!
	12:02am still b/p: Thanks thanks. Great stuff.
	12:02am Funky16Corners: Thanks SBP!
	12:03am Funky16Corners: Nite all, and thanks for lending me your ears!

	11:29pm coelacanth∅: yeah the really great songs never seem to make the rounds. ...i like somebody to Love and white rabbit too, but - i kind of can't stand Grace Slick! -i've heard lots of shit for that opinion!
	11:30pm coelacanth∅: gnight ngh
	11:31pm Funky16Corners: I prefer Grace when she's singing in tandem with Marty
	11:33pm geezerette: Well, it all sounds like mulled cider and mu tea at the Moonfire. More I cannot say.
	11:35pm Funky16Corners: That sounds like a good thing.
	11:35pm coelacanth∅: absolutely. Marty's voice was quite beautiful and she was subdued when they sang together. the 2 complimented each other. ...and maybe she pushed too hard when she had the full attention.
	11:37pm coelacanth∅: i could go for some mulled cider
	11:37pm Funky16Corners: I was craving a crisp, hard cider, but I never drink on show night
	11:40pm geezerette: It's a good winter drink,isn't it? On the other hand, hard cider, mmm... What a lovely set. Perfect winter night mood. :)
	11:40pm coelacanth∅: i can count on one hand the times i've had a hard cider; but it sounds very good right now.
	11:40pm Funky16Corners: Thanks G!
	11:41pm Funky16Corners: I LOVE hard cider. One of my Christmas gifts was freezable pint glasses. A Stringbow Orange Blossom cider in one of those is a little bit of heaven!
	11:41pm geezerette: Thank YOU, Larry!
	11:42pm Funky16Corners: @C - Way back when, some friends led me astray into an Irish immigrant bar in Trenton, NJ where I was introduced to the wonders of cold cider on draft. It gace me the worst headache/hangover, but it tasted so good.
	11:42pm coelacanth∅: there's an overpriced but not entirely un-worth it "wine bar" in town that has mulled wine when it's cold out and it's pretty special.
	11:42pm Funky16Corners: Mmmmmmmm
	11:43pm geezerette: That sounds great! Are actual orange blossoms ore peel used in brewing it?
	11:43pm Funky16Corners: I think so
	11:44pm Funky16Corners: They make a ginger and a cherry variety, too. Great and not overpriced.
	11:45pm coelacanth∅: yeah i've never heard of that one. i know my usual pub has at least 2 brands of cider. i'm told one is not as sweet as the average cider. maybe tomorrow.
	11:47pm Funky16Corners: I like the sweeter ones, but a nice, dry cider hits the spot now and again.
	11:48pm coelacanth∅: i think i'd like a sweet one, but i'm much more likely to get a headache from that.
	11:49pm Funky16Corners: The headache I got the first time I got drunk on cider felt like the grim reaper stepping on my head.
	11:49pm Funky16Corners: SOOOOOOOOOOO much sugar
	11:50pm coelacanth∅: -oh, strongbow is from england; so i guess there's as much chance of me finding it here as you having it there.
	11:51pm Funky16Corners: I think it's shipped in from Belgium, but it's everywhere around here.I'm guessing some big conglomerate imports it
	11:54pm coelacanth∅: i'm looking for it. orange blossoms. the oil, known as neroli, is known in aromatherapy for anti-depressive action.
	11:55pm Funky16Corners: I'm a citrus nut, orange, lemon, lime flavors will always draw me in. My favorite drink in the world is the cool lime refresher at Starbucks. I could drink it all day long.
	11:57pm geezerette: Thanks for this show,Larry! Good Night & Happpy New Year. You too,Coel.
	11:58pm coelacanth∅: i love oranges but somehow rarely eat them. the only fruit i eat often is lemon, and that's either in/on food or in water.
	11:58pm coelacanth∅: 'night g
	11:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Larry Excellent as usual! good night
	12:02am coelacanth∅: (...actually neroli might be from a very specific type of orange. other citrus oils are known to be uplifting as well - esp. lemon, tangerine, orange)
	12:02am Funky16Corners: Thanks C!
	12:02am still b/p: Thanks thanks. Great stuff.
	12:02am Funky16Corners: Thanks SBP!
	12:03am Funky16Corners: Nite all, and thanks for lending me your ears!
