	10:08pm GGG: Great show...please note Georgia is Georgia, not "Russian Georgia"...

	10:14pm queems: the actor!!!
	10:15pm Irene Trudel: GGG, duly noted. That was my clumsy description getting in the way.
	10:15pm queems: one of my favorites! justin hayward and i have the same birthday!
	10:16pm Tome: every time I put a Moody record on from Days... up until ,,,, Every Good Boy Deserves Favour always sound fresh and warm,,, lovely Show always Irene and everyone Happy New Years !
	10:22pm queems: the moody blues were my first understanding of what music was when i was little. they are my mom’s favorite, and so they were always on non-stop in my house growing up. even the wacky 80s records. listening to them is like being home.
	10:24pm Dean: Good to hear a Ray Thomas tribute. His is a voice as recognizable as any two-bit celebrity's to my generation, yet he never seemed to us, consumers, that he was hoping for mere fame.
	10:25pm Irene Trudel: I'm old enough to have heard The Moody Blues brand new on the radio back in the day...
	10:25pm Dean: Me, too.
	10:27pm Tommy in Neversink: I wore the grooves off this album in the 70s
	10:27pm slugluv1313: @ Irene -- me too! and "Watching and Waiting" . . . damn! STILL gets to me, right in the guts/heart -- even after all these (40+?) years
	10:28pm Ken From Hyde Park: Geezer rock rules!
	10:30pm queems: question of balance is my favorite for sure. dawning is the day is my favorite track
	10:32pm DC: Sounding very nice
	10:33pm slugluv1313: didn't WNEW-FM play "Tuesday Afternoon" every Tuesday afternoon? (although embarrassingly, i am forgetting the DJ) many years ago i worked at Tower Records' Outlet -- one of the coolest things was meeting all these other people (customers, co-workers) who loved this music -- Moody Blues, Renaissance, Steeleye Span, etc. etc. etc. -- YES! GEEZER ROCK RULES!!! :)
	10:35pm Tome: Brum Beat ..
	10:36pm sim: Mesmerizing.
	10:38pm Irene Trudel: Yeah, I'm proud of my Geezer Rock roots! To Our Children's Children's Children by far was my favorite. Had a but of a drugged-out revelation hearing that one played on the Rutgers radio station when I was down there on Halloween in the early 70's. And, yes, slugluv, WNEW-FM did seem to play Tuesday Afternoon every Tuesday.
	10:43pm queems: ohhh here comes a poem
	10:43pm joe mulligan: these are wonderful selections from the Moody Blues you're playing Irene.
	10:46pm slugluv1313: all the kitties here are blissed out and loving The Moody Blues too -- !!! i hated high school (was always a "good student" and enjoyed learning, but was also always a freakin' outcast) but hearing all these gems from my teenage years again is one of the few reasons i wish i was back there again (i guess music was my escape?) -- THANK YOU, Irene!
	10:46pm nickrhombi: ... heard this in the background and thought clay pigeon was filling in.... saddened to read the news. i remember the white label 'a question of balance' with the purple 'threshold' label in my sisters record collection getting a lot of turntable time as a kid. . somebody got me the double 'best of' when i was like 11 and played the grooves smooth. - real transporting stuff.... then and now.
	🥁 10:49pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hey Irene & Alles. Just wanted to thank you for this wunnerful ode to a truly deserving individual.
	10:50pm queems: mike pinder always wrote these super heavy ones
	10:53pm queems: that was incredible! thank you, irene!
	10:55pm slugluv1313: Two Guys from Harrison! there was one on Route 22 -- in Watchung? Green Brook? but got a lot of LPs there got many of my Moody Blues records through Record Club of America :)
	10:56pm Mahall: Was gonna go to bed but am now sitting up and listening to this fine set of Moody Blues. What a lovely band. Interesting what London in the late '60s sounded like-- that, the Beatles, Pink Floyd...bathed in a wave....
	10:57pm slugluv1313: what queems said :)
	10:58pm queems: it is way past my bedtime, but i’m so glad i stayed up for that. thanks again! have a great night!
	11:01pm Mister Dobalina: Yes, if you live in nYc or find yourself visiting the area, do take a tour of the Louis Armstrong house. I did, a few months back, it was pretty cool.
	11:03pm Irene Trudel: Oh, yeah, Record Club of America! I got a lot of things through them. Mahall and queems, glad you stayed up late for the Ray Thomas tribute.
	11:30pm Robert Mitchell: Nice tribute. I had a Moody Blues tribute band in the late 70's, haha.
