	5:05pm CC: Nice opener GG... a personal favorite of mine as well!!!
	5:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello CC! I was wondering where everyone was! Lol :-)
	5:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Vehicle is such a great tune, isn't it? :-)
	5:08pm Linda Lee: aaaaahhhhhhh..
	5:09pm CC: I always thought it was complementary to the song Politician by Cream..
	5:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Linda Lee! :-)
	5:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - interesting mix .. I shall have to remember that ;-)
	5:09pm Linda Lee: hi hihihi! how are you love?
	5:10pm Linda Lee: recovered? :-)
	5:10pm CC: Hi LL...
	5:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - I'm coming down with something so I'm doing my best! ;-)
	5:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you for being there on Saturday - that was so much fun :-)
	5:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think I'm just a bit run down is all - couple of days rest is all that's needed :-)
	5:12pm Linda Lee: it was! so much fun. are you really getting sick? what a bore! :-(
	5:13pm Linda Lee: hello CC! :-)
	5:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Bit achey, bit congested, bit bleurgh. I'm just an old bag ;-) lol!
	5:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is a memory tune, isn't it? :-)
	5:14pm Linda Lee: well darlin that makes a whole gang of us. rest is definitely the thing. why not post a rerun this week?
	5:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I've got Modernists and Flange in the can, so if I need to to rest for a couple of days that'll be cool :-)
	5:15pm Linda Lee: ah good.
	5:15pm CC: drink plenty of liquids and lots of chicken soup Georgy Girl!!!
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And lots of good British tea! ;-)
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There's nothing that can't be cured with a good cuppa ;-)
	5:16pm Linda Lee: absolutely.
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: My daughter and my partner are both in bed (it's 10pm here) so I've got my headphones on ;-)
	5:17pm Linda Lee: so glad you're with us darlin. really am.
	5:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: To be honest, music always makes me feel better, so this is good therapy :-)
	5:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Not to mention the company :-)
	5:18pm Linda Lee: naturally! ;-)
	5:18pm Linda Lee: same here! you know that.
	5:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I know :-)
	5:19pm Domenic: Hi listening in for a bit. Some of your special selections. but the family will want control of the media soon. ;' )
	5:19pm Linda Lee: my mother, Carmela, had all of Shirley Bassey's albums. she adored her. i didn't recall that cover, though!
	5:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Domenic!!! Did you have fun on Saturday? :-)
	5:19pm Linda Lee: ahahah!! yours too! :-)
	5:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I suspect there were several Shirley Bassey shrines then :-)
	5:21pm CC: always loved this one!!!
	5:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - this was a definite staple in our house :-)
	5:22pm Linda Lee: speaking of a Catholic household. my mother's family was strongly Roman Catholic ~but Mom was excommunicated in the late 50s for divorcing her husband. she loved church, though & she did attend. she just couldn't accept the Eucharist.
	5:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - that's so sad :-(
	5:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: My poor nan, who was divorced with three girls, was made to sit at the back of the church :-(
	5:23pm Photocopy Cha Cha: Good evening you all! Missed the first four tracks. grr. Gotta do homework re: Jack Jones (someone @ wfmu boards recommended a couple of lp's as a start-with-this package, I have completely which lp's they were - suggestions for essential Jack Jones listening welcome)
	5:24pm Linda Lee: oh god. how awful.
	5:24pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Photocopy Cha Cha!! :-) I'd recommend the excellent Harbour album :-)
	5:25pm Linda Lee: hello Photocopy Cha Cha! how are you?
	5:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: My tea makers are in bed - I don't suppose one of you would put the kettle on? ;-)
	5:25pm Linda Lee: i'd love to, if i had one.
	5:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Bit more Shirley ;-)
	5:27pm Linda Lee: this one i know.
	5:28pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I honestly think that 70s Shirley was incredible - the music, the looks. Everything. Pure 70s glamour. :-)
	5:29pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @5:25 Linda Lee: hi Linda Lee, quite OK, even if this self isolation starts to get a bit boring at times - keeping in mind I am someone who does not mind spending their time in their own company. Then again, I am covered as in having a roof over my head and enough money at the moment to get food&other essentials delivered to my door. How are things over there?
	5:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: As well as this music there was also lots of british invasion stuff and general chart music :-)
	5:29pm Linda Lee: oh, absolutely.
	5:30pm Linda Lee: well, you & i are in something of the same place, as far as what just seems like an expanded solitude. alas, things are a bit more slippery here, in terms of the roof.
	5:31pm Linda Lee: but it's a day at a time thing. for today we're fine.
	5:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: What's going on with lockdown where you all are? We had the most vague press briefing over the weekend ... no one knows what's going on at the moment.
	5:32pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @5:30 Linda Lee: ummm, I hope youu don't mean the threat of homelessness?
	5:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: THIS SONG!!! :_D
	5:32pm Linda Lee: yes my dear. basically, yes.
	5:33pm Linda Lee: but this is only because i'm meant to be selling the cabin i live in. the contract was signed in february. we were a week or 2 from closing at the start of march ..
	5:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - our sofa bed is yours, you know that <3
	5:34pm Linda Lee: .. and it's still on .. but my plans for what's next are totally screwed!
	5:34pm Linda Lee: thank you darlin! that's lovely! i'd be in fine shape if they'd let us travel. that's the whole darn issue. that was the plan.
	5:35pm Linda Lee: oh my god. what? Mandy?
	5:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is the original - not a lot of people know that, but it is :-)
	5:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And this is the chap who wrote it :-)
	5:36pm Linda Lee: no kidding!! what!
	5:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Very early 70s - 71? 72? Something like that. This was on our turntable a lot.
	5:37pm Linda Lee: how did that other guy manage to rip this off so thoroughly & give himself a hit?
	5:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That';s a VERY good question!
	5:37pm Linda Lee: this is crazy!
	5:38pm Elizabeth: Hello Georgy and everyone!
	5:38pm Linda Lee: 'Mandy' was an absolutely colossal hit!
	5:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Elizabeth!!! :-)
	5:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Mandy was one of those everywhere records, wasn't it?
	5:38pm Linda Lee: he didn't change a thing but the name. hi Elizabeth!
	5:39pm Linda Lee: my god it was! every radio station, every tv show. it made piles! now this cover i do love.
	5:40pm Linda Lee: that stinker Manilow. i never did like him. what a creep!
	5:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I don't know much about Scott English sadly
	5:40pm Elizabeth: Hello Linda Lee!
	5:41pm Linda Lee: well, we do know one thing. he was robbed blind.
	5:41pm CC: The trend here in America is to open things up it seems.. use people as guinea pigs... stall on approving another stimulus package...wait and see what turns hot..etc...
	5:41pm Linda Lee: don't get me started on this slaughterhouse of a country, CC.
	5:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - it's been very confusing here. Go to work, but don't commute. Go to parks etc but not in groups. Visit people but only one person at a time ... None of it makes sense at all.
	5:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Now this should bring lots of memories back :-)
	5:43pm Linda Lee: ooh yes. yes, yes. it does.
	5:43pm Elizabeth: It's a nightmare in the U.S.- I feel very bad for the states whose governors are opening up their states- the virus is going to come back- and it hasn't gone away in NJ! So far (knock on wood) we are still on lockdown.
	5:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Such a lovely song :-)
	5:44pm CC: I know it's so depressing!!!
	5:44pm Elizabeth: it is such a mellow song- perfect to de-stress to!
	5:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Elizabeth - I have to go do the weekly supermarket run on Wednesday and I really son;t want to :-(
	5:44pm Linda Lee: that arrrangement. just beautiful.
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I vote we all turn our speakers up :-)
	5:45pm CC: your music helps Georgy Girl... you have quite a diverse selection for such a young lady!!!
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: WHOOOO!!! Massive sneeze just then!
	5:45pm Linda Lee: quite the brilliant segue there, Lady. what next? :-)
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This :-)
	5:46pm The Last Greasy Casserole: oh yes. so beautiful.
	5:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: You cannot, absolutely cannot, beat a bit of David Clayton Thomas :-)
	5:46pm CC: mine stay up when I got the radio on!!!
	5:47pm Elizabeth: I don't blame you Georgy, be safe! I do the grocery shopping from home- it is very challenging getting a pick-up or delivery time. Usually I have to on the grocery store website at midnight to get a timeslot. It is more stressful than getting concert tickets! I can't go into grocery stores, because I live with my elderly mom who is high risk, so I can't risk bringing anything home to her!
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - I approve! :-)
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Elizabeth - I shall be in full armour on Wednesday, don't worry :-)
	5:48pm CC: 1968/69...
	5:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ooo - my neighbour opposite have their lovely colour-changing light on :-)
	5:48pm Elizabeth: @Georgy! That is good to hear! :)
	5:49pm The Last Greasy Casserole: yay!!!
	5:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I like the name change! lol
	5:50pm The Last Greasy Casserole: just waitin on that Palmolive..
	5:50pm The Last Greasy Casserole: Manilow didn't write 'i write the songs'? that hilarious!
	5:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Those of you who watched me doing the Facebook Live DJing on Saturday will now know exactly where I do this show :-)
	5:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think ... Mike Love wrote "I Write The Songs"?
	5:51pm The Last Greasy Casserole: we did get a very good look this time. :-)
	5:52pm The Last Greasy Casserole: oh my god Sammy screamed!!!
	5:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: If you can see the notebook hanging on the wall behind me, that's my radio show script book :-)
	5:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And all the paintings are from my own fair hand :-)
	5:53pm The Last Greasy Casserole: a script book?
	5:53pm Photocopy Cha Cha: I don't envy anyone who does not have the option of working from home (my partner for instance, worried for them) or goes shopping in person. As of now home deliveries are an option for me + seems like I am permanently unemployed, so no need to go anywhere yet.
	5:53pm The Last Greasy Casserole: i was admiring the big green & red one on Saturday! that's yours?
	5:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The script book is where I write down the song order and any notes to jog my memory when I'm on the mic. Most of which I forget ;-)
	5:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - yep :-)
	5:54pm The Last Greasy Casserole: well, it's right there behind you. security. that's an amazing painting. really great!
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - does your partner have to go far to get to work?
	5:55pm The Last Greasy Casserole: i'm sorry to hear that, Photocopy Cha Cha. glad you're not on your own though. no one should be, now.
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - thank you :-) <3
	5:55pm Rich in Washington: Hi GeorgyGirl! Hi everybody!
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - I haven't forgotten about the video links by the way! I'll get those off to you tomorrow :-)
	5:56pm The Last Greasy Casserole: of course this Dusty is delicious!
	5:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Rich!! :-)
	5:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Dusty sounds soooooo sexy on this one
	5:57pm The Last Greasy Casserole: just phenomenally sexy. yes. amazing arrangement, too. nicer than the top 40 track.
	5:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This song may not be a popular choice ;-) I talk about that in a bit :-)
	5:57pm CC: Dug the classics four...then ARS... this is my favorite Billy Joel song!!!
	5:57pm The Last Greasy Casserole: well, it was ubiquitous ..
	5:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: If you listen very carefully, you can hear Otis Fodder and Greg Bishop in the distance shouting "WHY????" lol
	5:58pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @5:55 DJ GeorgyGirl: no, but no car, hence public transport and while the services are restricted - those of a library (as of now, the customers can only pick up reserved items) - the risk, no matter how minimal, is still there.
	5:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I love Billy Joel :-)
	6:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - my partner is thankfully one of those who would be working from home. he normally has to commute to London, but with the social distancing, they'd have to put trains on every two minutes between Brighton and London to get everyone there which isn't possible.
	6:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I've just realised this is almost a sea shanty
	6:01pm Linda Lee: yes. for a very, very long voyage.
	6:03pm Linda Lee: haven't heard these commercials in ages! how funny.
	6:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I chose the main commercials from my childhood - the ones that stick out for me :-)
	6:04pm Photocopy Cha Cha: I think even here in Finland they are rebooting the system too fast... there are gigs already announced (rebooked ones I guess) for July, gatherings of <50 people allowed from 1. June, schools open this thursday etc. This might blow up.
	6:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Gigs in July?? Wow.
	6:06pm Linda Lee: i know this rhythm guitar riff .. how? oh!!! i know! Heart's 'Barracuda'!
	6:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - aha! Do love a bit of old school Heart :-)
	6:06pm CC: of course Paul was no relation to Robbie...
	6:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - LOL!!
	6:07pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @6:04 DJ GeorgyGirl: this, or the web pages in question have not been updated. Dunno about the situation in July , like I said gatherings of <50 people allowed from 1. June BUT those of >500 people are not until the end of July. I have got tickets for events of rather a scale in August - will they happen? I actually hope not.
	6:08pm Photocopy Cha Cha: large scale I meant there
	6:08pm Photocopy Cha Cha: a robot singing pet semetary interrupted the flow of Melba Moore
	6:09pm Linda Lee: i thought Melba Moore was adorable. another little crush before i knew what was what. ;-)
	6:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: A robot singing Pet Semetary??? That's how you know it's WFMU, I guess ;-)
	6:09pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I was just going to ask if anyone else just heard a bit of Pet Sematary?
	6:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: She was very beautiful :-)
	6:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Hopey!!! :-)
	6:10pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Hi GG!
	6:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I almost didn't include the next song but it has a funny story attached to it ;-)
	6:11pm Linda Lee: she really was. a really talented woman.
	6:11pm CC: did your show expand to two hours Georgy Girl???
	6:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think I'm the only DJ who's in the drivetime slot (Monday and Friday) - and that's when the stream breaks. Literally right at the prime drivetime point.
	6:12pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oh wow, this brings back memories of 12 year old me liking this song.
	6:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - it's always been two hours, my lovely :-)
	6:14pm CC: hmmm... don't know what I'm thinking it seems like I get to listen to come to the sunshine with Andrew and your show is already off???...
	6:15pm Aitch: Oble wah-hoo?, been a very long time...
	6:15pm Linda Lee: god. the stream is shot.
	6:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Aitch!! :-)
	6:15pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @6:14 CC: there is an hour left with come to the sunshine when lorihajitura is over.
	6:15pm Linda Lee: the show's gone.
	6:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Has it gone again??
	6:15pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Sheena is being very naughty indeed.
	6:16pm Photocopy Cha Cha: back now.
	6:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Just restarted it - can you hear it?
	6:16pm Linda Lee: ok, back now.
	6:16pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I hear CCR now.
	6:16pm Aitch: You made it all better...
	6:16pm Linda Lee: thanks love.
	6:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The healing power of CCR!!!
	6:16pm CC: I must be trippin' again or something???
	6:18pm Photocopy Cha Cha: I wish Fogerty had played a bit more CCR when I saw3 him last summer. He had some Woodstock 50 years show, hence cover version of Sly & Family Stone, The Who etc.
	6:18pm CC: ok photo cha cha... that's probably it!!!
	6:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It's definitely not my Internet - I've been watching that like a hawk.
	6:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - wow! You got to see John Fogerty!! Bit of a hero of mine :-)
	6:19pm Photocopy Cha Cha: Us folks outside USA recognize that hot dog commercial mainly thanks to the Simpsons
	6:19pm spacebrother: That happened last week with mine. I don't know what's going on with the stream.
	6:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Greg!!! :-)
	6:19pm CC: my favorite Gordon Lightfoot song!!!
	6:19pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @6:18 DJ GeorgyGirl: He would've been magnificent had he performer 100% his own stuff - amazingly the voice is still there.
	6:19pm Aitch: Prostate?
	6:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I adore Gordon Lightfoot.
	6:20pm Linda Lee: oh my. sad memories for this one.
	6:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - <3
	6:21pm StringOFperils: Hello, belatedly..
	6:21pm Linda Lee: <3
	6:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: StringOFperils! Hello! :-)
	6:22pm spacebrother: Hi GG!
	6:22pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I remember having to learn the Gordon Lightfoot song for junior high guitar class. Oh, my 70s teen life.
	6:22pm davefromtoronto: georgy girl if you haven't seen it the BBC gordon lightfoot show from 70's is fantastic
	6:22pm CC: Pride of Man was another favorite!!!
	6:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @davefromtoronto - hello!!! I have to find that now!!! :-)
	6:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm not happy that Greg is having stream problems too, but I'm relieved it's not just me. Sometimes I take it as a Sheena attack on me personally. lol
	6:24pm Linda Lee: for a while there the whole station was a mess. never just you.
	6:24pm davefromtoronto: oh you're in for a treat! here's one link with it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmkgIxIJuck
	6:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you davefromtoronto! :-)
	6:25pm Hopey Sockmonkey: It's kind of a mess right now. . .
	6:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Greg - I played Billy Joel for you earlier ;-)
	6:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yep - I can see the stream breaking :-(
	6:26pm Photocopy Cha Cha: thanks to the silly musicians union rules the BBC TV music performances from 1966 to dunnowhen (late 70s?) are, a few promo videos aside, either live (to some extent) or unique recordings. Plenty of treasures there, as well as the radio sessions (also thanks to the musicians union's "needle time" restrictions for the radio from early 60s)
	6:26pm StringOFperils: Stream outages seem to be happening occasionally, even today....the Jersey rats are trying to steal the satellite dish off the roof of the station.
	6:26pm Linda Lee: Otis makes me giggle regardless.
	6:27pm CC: Tony Joe!!!
	6:27pm Linda Lee: the stream is a mess, though.
	6:27pm StringOFperils: They're gentrified rats.
	6:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Chomp! Chomp!
	6:27pm Linda Lee: hasn't been this bad in a while.
	6:28pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Is this happening on the other channels too?
	6:28pm Photocopy Cha Cha: sadly there is no picture, so no guy with a Max Headroom mask interrupting the show..
	6:28pm CC: Something is messing up...that's for sure!!!
	6:29pm StringOFperils: Sun spots.
	6:29pm Linda Lee: no idea about the other channels at all.
	6:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Max Headroom! There's a blast from the past :-)
	6:30pm CC: Call the skeleton crew!!!
	6:30pm Linda Lee: here we go. :-)
	6:30pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Well, Windy seems to be playing now.
	6:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yep - I'm going to message the techs after the show :-(
	6:31pm Linda Lee: isn't this luscious!
	6:31pm StringOFperils: The Association fixes EVERYTHING
	6:31pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The harmonies on this are just glorious :-)
	6:32pm Linda Lee: so glad we've gone back a few years. :-)
	6:32pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @6:29 DJ GeorgyGirl: you know this incident where a chigao tv channel WGN had an interruption where the said Max HEadroom-mask wearing guy showed up for a few seconds until the intended signal was back. Then later the same video interrupted a WTTW broadcast of Dr. Who, this time in its entirety with sound and all
	6:32pm CC: Windy always played nice back to with hey there Georgy Girl!!!
	6:32pm StringOFperils: The playlist looks like an actual playlist form 1973--ish
	6:32pm Photocopy Cha Cha: this must be your theme tune not Georgy Girl :)
	6:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - I saw that on YouTube! That is WEIRD!!!
	6:33pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - I mean ... I am a vegan of a certain age ;-)
	6:33pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oh damn, it's cutting into one of my fave old commercials That'sa Spicy Meata Ball!
	6:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is so frustrating!!!
	6:34pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @6:33 DJ GeorgyGirl: sdadly I am a failed vegan - can't resist cheese.
	6:34pm Linda Lee: we're fine now.
	6:34pm StringOFperils: That streamed okay over here, the commercials montage that you say kicked out
	6:35pm StringOFperils: So that's interesting
	6:35pm Linda Lee: here's a little proto-glam yes?
	6:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ah well - clean archive it is then
	6:36pm StringOFperils: More in the progessive rock camp, aka prog
	6:37pm Linda Lee: absolutely brilliant golden sunlight pouring into the room for this one. very nice.
	6:37pm Photocopy Cha Cha: GLAM PROG!!!
	6:38pm Linda Lee: the organ part is prog, but that chunky shuffle thing ..
	6:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ok, lovelies - I have sent the clean file over for the archives, so we have that at least :-)
	6:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This was HUGE in our house :-)
	6:38pm Linda Lee: so you were still in the States for this stuff, GG?
	6:39pm Linda Lee: must have been, for the meatballs & Palmolive
	6:39pm StringOFperils: I don't know this Gilbert Becaud at all
	6:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Trying to think ... we left Vancouver around February '75
	6:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: We went over in April '66 :-)
	6:40pm Linda Lee: oh, sure then! this was very early 70s.
	6:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I love that groovy little 60s organ in the background :-)
	6:42pm Linda Lee: how funny, i don't remember that last one at all! i do remember the Jim Croce though.
	6:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I was in our kitchen when the news came through about Jim Croce. :-(
	6:43pm Elizabeth: I never heard of Gilbert Becaud either! Jim Croce was all over the radio when I was a kid!
	6:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Don't forget that you have the immense Greg after me with Stop Hitting Yourself :-) www.wfmu.org...
	6:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think Gilbert Becaud was more of a chanson type artist who had this one crossover hit :-)
	6:45pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I have a fondness for the Sinatra version of the Jim Croce song on his Main Event live album. It's wonderfully hack.
	6:46pm CC: an all time fave here!!!
	6:46pm Aitch: I was humming this Donovan this morning, must have heard it somewhere else lately?
	6:46pm Linda Lee: ahhhhh.. back to the 60s! :-)
	6:46pm Photocopy Cha Cha: I can't believe the contemporary attitudes some had about Donovan, in the vein of "compared to Dylan he is a teenybopper".
	6:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: During my parents VERY long engagement, my mother dumped my father (a five year engagement ..he was dragging his heels) and she briefly dated Donovan. Fast forward to the early 70s and every time my parents had an argument. my mother would put a Donovan record on VERY LOUD and just glare at my father ;-)
	6:46pm Linda Lee: that's sort of the way we felt at the time, too..
	6:47pm Aitch: Never find myself humming Dylan...
	6:47pm Rich in Washington: Goddamn Osmond Brothers breaking in!
	6:47pm Elizabeth: The Osmonds have hi-jacked your show- Crazy Horses!
	6:47pm spacebrother: Signal dropped again.
	6:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Aitch - I'm not sure it's physically possible ;-)
	6:48pm StringOFperils: Stream is particularly cranky today...oh well, for one reason or another I've listened to several of your recent shows in the archives, and all out of order, so it looks like that'll continue :)
	6:48pm CC: sounds like somebody's playing games to me!!!
	6:48pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Yeah, The Osmonds have strong armed their into the show.
	6:48pm Rich in Washington: Whoa! That's crazy horses, GeorgyGirl! The Donovan connection, I mean!
	6:48pm Linda Lee: hahahah!! that's very funny, GG.
	6:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is soul-destroying for me :-(
	6:48pm Mr Fab: Hey hey, GeeGee! Been doin stuff, but just had to pop in to say: your friend was WRONG about Congregation! "Softly Whispering I Love You" is a great record.
	6:49pm Linda Lee: the oscar meyer song?
	6:49pm StringOFperils: www.google.com...
	6:49pm Hopey Sockmonkey: It seems to be back again, Oscar Meyer weiner commercial.
	6:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - hello!!! There you go! He has no taste ;-)
	6:50pm Linda Lee: was that your oscar meyer commercial, GG?
	6:50pm Elizabeth: It's back!
	6:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That was my Oscar Meyer commercial :-)
	6:51pm Linda Lee: ah good. :-)
	6:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is genuinely getting to me :-(
	6:51pm Linda Lee: the best piece on Johnny Mathis i've read is in John Waters' 'Role Models'. it's fabulous.
	6:52pm Linda Lee: what is, GG?
	6:52pm Photocopy Cha Cha: as I buy my records for the music rather than collector purposes, Donovan and The Beatles are the only artists I have the same record in both mono and stereo - so you can guess I really do like their music!
	6:52pm Mr Fab: Weird hearing Johnny Mathis doing this. I love his voice, I 'm just so used to The Stylistics' version.
	6:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The whole stream thing
	6:52pm Linda Lee: ah. well. we're fine now.
	6:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The stream better not cut out during the last track!!
	6:53pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I am very used to the Stylistics version as well. It was a low rider favorite back in the day :)
	6:54pm Photocopy Cha Cha: don't worry GG, think of all the joyful relief you offer us. as necessary as air and water nowadays!
	6:54pm Elizabeth: I loved the Armistead Maupin memoir- thanks for a great show as always!
	6:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you, each and every one of my lovely, lovely Turists <3
	6:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Especially thank you for bearing with me!
	6:54pm spacebrother: Ah, 10cc...
	6:55pm Linda Lee: thank you so much love. again! <3
	6:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Greg - here's your warm cloud :-)
	6:55pm StringOFperils: The stream outages didn't impinge on the enjoyment one iota
	6:55pm Photocopy Cha Cha: For me, the best £0.10 ever spent, this 7"
	6:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Massive hugs to ALL of you :-) <3
	6:57pm Linda Lee: hugs! :-)
	6:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: :-)
	6:57pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Thanks for the show, GG!
	6:58pm Photocopy Cha Cha: Virgin Suicides got rather mixed reviews but I go all "WAAAAAAAA!" when this starts playing in it.
	6:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank YOU!!! :-)
	6:58pm Elizabeth: I always associate this song with "the Virgin Suicides' and my childhood
	6:59pm Photocopy Cha Cha: Perfect ending. Thank YOU, GG! Let's be careful out there
	6:59pm CC: Great show, regardless, Georgy Girl..!..Cheerz!!!!
	6:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is complete bliss <3
	6:59pm Photocopy Cha Cha: there were no glitches during this song GG!

	5:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello CC! I was wondering where everyone was! Lol :-)
	5:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Vehicle is such a great tune, isn't it? :-)
	5:08pm Linda Lee: aaaaahhhhhhh..
	5:09pm CC: I always thought it was complementary to the song Politician by Cream..
	5:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Linda Lee! :-)
	5:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - interesting mix .. I shall have to remember that ;-)
	5:09pm Linda Lee: hi hihihi! how are you love?
	5:10pm Linda Lee: recovered? :-)
	5:10pm CC: Hi LL...
	5:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - I'm coming down with something so I'm doing my best! ;-)
	5:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you for being there on Saturday - that was so much fun :-)
	5:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think I'm just a bit run down is all - couple of days rest is all that's needed :-)
	5:12pm Linda Lee: it was! so much fun. are you really getting sick? what a bore! :-(
	5:13pm Linda Lee: hello CC! :-)
	5:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Bit achey, bit congested, bit bleurgh. I'm just an old bag ;-) lol!
	5:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is a memory tune, isn't it? :-)
	5:14pm Linda Lee: well darlin that makes a whole gang of us. rest is definitely the thing. why not post a rerun this week?
	5:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I've got Modernists and Flange in the can, so if I need to to rest for a couple of days that'll be cool :-)
	5:15pm Linda Lee: ah good.
	5:15pm CC: drink plenty of liquids and lots of chicken soup Georgy Girl!!!
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And lots of good British tea! ;-)
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There's nothing that can't be cured with a good cuppa ;-)
	5:16pm Linda Lee: absolutely.
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: My daughter and my partner are both in bed (it's 10pm here) so I've got my headphones on ;-)
	5:17pm Linda Lee: so glad you're with us darlin. really am.
	5:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: To be honest, music always makes me feel better, so this is good therapy :-)
	5:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Not to mention the company :-)
	5:18pm Linda Lee: naturally! ;-)
	5:18pm Linda Lee: same here! you know that.
	5:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I know :-)
	5:19pm Domenic: Hi listening in for a bit. Some of your special selections. but the family will want control of the media soon. ;' )
	5:19pm Linda Lee: my mother, Carmela, had all of Shirley Bassey's albums. she adored her. i didn't recall that cover, though!
	5:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Domenic!!! Did you have fun on Saturday? :-)
	5:19pm Linda Lee: ahahah!! yours too! :-)
	5:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I suspect there were several Shirley Bassey shrines then :-)
	5:21pm CC: always loved this one!!!
	5:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - this was a definite staple in our house :-)
	5:22pm Linda Lee: speaking of a Catholic household. my mother's family was strongly Roman Catholic ~but Mom was excommunicated in the late 50s for divorcing her husband. she loved church, though & she did attend. she just couldn't accept the Eucharist.
	5:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - that's so sad :-(
	5:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: My poor nan, who was divorced with three girls, was made to sit at the back of the church :-(
	5:23pm Photocopy Cha Cha: Good evening you all! Missed the first four tracks. grr. Gotta do homework re: Jack Jones (someone @ wfmu boards recommended a couple of lp's as a start-with-this package, I have completely which lp's they were - suggestions for essential Jack Jones listening welcome)
	5:24pm Linda Lee: oh god. how awful.
	5:24pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Photocopy Cha Cha!! :-) I'd recommend the excellent Harbour album :-)
	5:25pm Linda Lee: hello Photocopy Cha Cha! how are you?
	5:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: My tea makers are in bed - I don't suppose one of you would put the kettle on? ;-)
	5:25pm Linda Lee: i'd love to, if i had one.
	5:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Bit more Shirley ;-)
	5:27pm Linda Lee: this one i know.
	5:28pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I honestly think that 70s Shirley was incredible - the music, the looks. Everything. Pure 70s glamour. :-)
	5:29pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @5:25 Linda Lee: hi Linda Lee, quite OK, even if this self isolation starts to get a bit boring at times - keeping in mind I am someone who does not mind spending their time in their own company. Then again, I am covered as in having a roof over my head and enough money at the moment to get food&other essentials delivered to my door. How are things over there?
	5:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: As well as this music there was also lots of british invasion stuff and general chart music :-)
	5:29pm Linda Lee: oh, absolutely.
	5:30pm Linda Lee: well, you & i are in something of the same place, as far as what just seems like an expanded solitude. alas, things are a bit more slippery here, in terms of the roof.
	5:31pm Linda Lee: but it's a day at a time thing. for today we're fine.
	5:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: What's going on with lockdown where you all are? We had the most vague press briefing over the weekend ... no one knows what's going on at the moment.
	5:32pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @5:30 Linda Lee: ummm, I hope youu don't mean the threat of homelessness?
	5:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: THIS SONG!!! :_D
	5:32pm Linda Lee: yes my dear. basically, yes.
	5:33pm Linda Lee: but this is only because i'm meant to be selling the cabin i live in. the contract was signed in february. we were a week or 2 from closing at the start of march ..
	5:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - our sofa bed is yours, you know that <3
	5:34pm Linda Lee: .. and it's still on .. but my plans for what's next are totally screwed!
	5:34pm Linda Lee: thank you darlin! that's lovely! i'd be in fine shape if they'd let us travel. that's the whole darn issue. that was the plan.
	5:35pm Linda Lee: oh my god. what? Mandy?
	5:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is the original - not a lot of people know that, but it is :-)
	5:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And this is the chap who wrote it :-)
	5:36pm Linda Lee: no kidding!! what!
	5:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Very early 70s - 71? 72? Something like that. This was on our turntable a lot.
	5:37pm Linda Lee: how did that other guy manage to rip this off so thoroughly & give himself a hit?
	5:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That';s a VERY good question!
	5:37pm Linda Lee: this is crazy!
	5:38pm Elizabeth: Hello Georgy and everyone!
	5:38pm Linda Lee: 'Mandy' was an absolutely colossal hit!
	5:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Elizabeth!!! :-)
	5:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Mandy was one of those everywhere records, wasn't it?
	5:38pm Linda Lee: he didn't change a thing but the name. hi Elizabeth!
	5:39pm Linda Lee: my god it was! every radio station, every tv show. it made piles! now this cover i do love.
	5:40pm Linda Lee: that stinker Manilow. i never did like him. what a creep!
	5:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I don't know much about Scott English sadly
	5:40pm Elizabeth: Hello Linda Lee!
	5:41pm Linda Lee: well, we do know one thing. he was robbed blind.
	5:41pm CC: The trend here in America is to open things up it seems.. use people as guinea pigs... stall on approving another stimulus package...wait and see what turns hot..etc...
	5:41pm Linda Lee: don't get me started on this slaughterhouse of a country, CC.
	5:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - it's been very confusing here. Go to work, but don't commute. Go to parks etc but not in groups. Visit people but only one person at a time ... None of it makes sense at all.
	5:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Now this should bring lots of memories back :-)
	5:43pm Linda Lee: ooh yes. yes, yes. it does.
	5:43pm Elizabeth: It's a nightmare in the U.S.- I feel very bad for the states whose governors are opening up their states- the virus is going to come back- and it hasn't gone away in NJ! So far (knock on wood) we are still on lockdown.
	5:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Such a lovely song :-)
	5:44pm CC: I know it's so depressing!!!
	5:44pm Elizabeth: it is such a mellow song- perfect to de-stress to!
	5:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Elizabeth - I have to go do the weekly supermarket run on Wednesday and I really son;t want to :-(
	5:44pm Linda Lee: that arrrangement. just beautiful.
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I vote we all turn our speakers up :-)
	5:45pm CC: your music helps Georgy Girl... you have quite a diverse selection for such a young lady!!!
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: WHOOOO!!! Massive sneeze just then!
	5:45pm Linda Lee: quite the brilliant segue there, Lady. what next? :-)
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This :-)
	5:46pm The Last Greasy Casserole: oh yes. so beautiful.
	5:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: You cannot, absolutely cannot, beat a bit of David Clayton Thomas :-)
	5:46pm CC: mine stay up when I got the radio on!!!
	5:47pm Elizabeth: I don't blame you Georgy, be safe! I do the grocery shopping from home- it is very challenging getting a pick-up or delivery time. Usually I have to on the grocery store website at midnight to get a timeslot. It is more stressful than getting concert tickets! I can't go into grocery stores, because I live with my elderly mom who is high risk, so I can't risk bringing anything home to her!
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - I approve! :-)
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Elizabeth - I shall be in full armour on Wednesday, don't worry :-)
	5:48pm CC: 1968/69...
	5:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ooo - my neighbour opposite have their lovely colour-changing light on :-)
	5:48pm Elizabeth: @Georgy! That is good to hear! :)
	5:49pm The Last Greasy Casserole: yay!!!
	5:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I like the name change! lol
	5:50pm The Last Greasy Casserole: just waitin on that Palmolive..
	5:50pm The Last Greasy Casserole: Manilow didn't write 'i write the songs'? that hilarious!
	5:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Those of you who watched me doing the Facebook Live DJing on Saturday will now know exactly where I do this show :-)
	5:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think ... Mike Love wrote "I Write The Songs"?
	5:51pm The Last Greasy Casserole: we did get a very good look this time. :-)
	5:52pm The Last Greasy Casserole: oh my god Sammy screamed!!!
	5:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: If you can see the notebook hanging on the wall behind me, that's my radio show script book :-)
	5:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And all the paintings are from my own fair hand :-)
	5:53pm The Last Greasy Casserole: a script book?
	5:53pm Photocopy Cha Cha: I don't envy anyone who does not have the option of working from home (my partner for instance, worried for them) or goes shopping in person. As of now home deliveries are an option for me + seems like I am permanently unemployed, so no need to go anywhere yet.
	5:53pm The Last Greasy Casserole: i was admiring the big green & red one on Saturday! that's yours?
	5:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The script book is where I write down the song order and any notes to jog my memory when I'm on the mic. Most of which I forget ;-)
	5:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - yep :-)
	5:54pm The Last Greasy Casserole: well, it's right there behind you. security. that's an amazing painting. really great!
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - does your partner have to go far to get to work?
	5:55pm The Last Greasy Casserole: i'm sorry to hear that, Photocopy Cha Cha. glad you're not on your own though. no one should be, now.
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - thank you :-) <3
	5:55pm Rich in Washington: Hi GeorgyGirl! Hi everybody!
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - I haven't forgotten about the video links by the way! I'll get those off to you tomorrow :-)
	5:56pm The Last Greasy Casserole: of course this Dusty is delicious!
	5:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Rich!! :-)
	5:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Dusty sounds soooooo sexy on this one
	5:57pm The Last Greasy Casserole: just phenomenally sexy. yes. amazing arrangement, too. nicer than the top 40 track.
	5:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This song may not be a popular choice ;-) I talk about that in a bit :-)
	5:57pm CC: Dug the classics four...then ARS... this is my favorite Billy Joel song!!!
	5:57pm The Last Greasy Casserole: well, it was ubiquitous ..
	5:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: If you listen very carefully, you can hear Otis Fodder and Greg Bishop in the distance shouting "WHY????" lol
	5:58pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @5:55 DJ GeorgyGirl: no, but no car, hence public transport and while the services are restricted - those of a library (as of now, the customers can only pick up reserved items) - the risk, no matter how minimal, is still there.
	5:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I love Billy Joel :-)
	6:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - my partner is thankfully one of those who would be working from home. he normally has to commute to London, but with the social distancing, they'd have to put trains on every two minutes between Brighton and London to get everyone there which isn't possible.
	6:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I've just realised this is almost a sea shanty
	6:01pm Linda Lee: yes. for a very, very long voyage.
	6:03pm Linda Lee: haven't heard these commercials in ages! how funny.
	6:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I chose the main commercials from my childhood - the ones that stick out for me :-)
	6:04pm Photocopy Cha Cha: I think even here in Finland they are rebooting the system too fast... there are gigs already announced (rebooked ones I guess) for July, gatherings of <50 people allowed from 1. June, schools open this thursday etc. This might blow up.
	6:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Gigs in July?? Wow.
	6:06pm Linda Lee: i know this rhythm guitar riff .. how? oh!!! i know! Heart's 'Barracuda'!
	6:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - aha! Do love a bit of old school Heart :-)
	6:06pm CC: of course Paul was no relation to Robbie...
	6:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - LOL!!
	6:07pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @6:04 DJ GeorgyGirl: this, or the web pages in question have not been updated. Dunno about the situation in July , like I said gatherings of <50 people allowed from 1. June BUT those of >500 people are not until the end of July. I have got tickets for events of rather a scale in August - will they happen? I actually hope not.
	6:08pm Photocopy Cha Cha: large scale I meant there
	6:08pm Photocopy Cha Cha: a robot singing pet semetary interrupted the flow of Melba Moore
	6:09pm Linda Lee: i thought Melba Moore was adorable. another little crush before i knew what was what. ;-)
	6:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: A robot singing Pet Semetary??? That's how you know it's WFMU, I guess ;-)
	6:09pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I was just going to ask if anyone else just heard a bit of Pet Sematary?
	6:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: She was very beautiful :-)
	6:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Hopey!!! :-)
	6:10pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Hi GG!
	6:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I almost didn't include the next song but it has a funny story attached to it ;-)
	6:11pm Linda Lee: she really was. a really talented woman.
	6:11pm CC: did your show expand to two hours Georgy Girl???
	6:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think I'm the only DJ who's in the drivetime slot (Monday and Friday) - and that's when the stream breaks. Literally right at the prime drivetime point.
	6:12pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oh wow, this brings back memories of 12 year old me liking this song.
	6:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @CC - it's always been two hours, my lovely :-)
	6:14pm CC: hmmm... don't know what I'm thinking it seems like I get to listen to come to the sunshine with Andrew and your show is already off???...
	6:15pm Aitch: Oble wah-hoo?, been a very long time...
	6:15pm Linda Lee: god. the stream is shot.
	6:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Aitch!! :-)
	6:15pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @6:14 CC: there is an hour left with come to the sunshine when lorihajitura is over.
	6:15pm Linda Lee: the show's gone.
	6:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Has it gone again??
	6:15pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Sheena is being very naughty indeed.
	6:16pm Photocopy Cha Cha: back now.
	6:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Just restarted it - can you hear it?
	6:16pm Linda Lee: ok, back now.
	6:16pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I hear CCR now.
	6:16pm Aitch: You made it all better...
	6:16pm Linda Lee: thanks love.
	6:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The healing power of CCR!!!
	6:16pm CC: I must be trippin' again or something???
	6:18pm Photocopy Cha Cha: I wish Fogerty had played a bit more CCR when I saw3 him last summer. He had some Woodstock 50 years show, hence cover version of Sly & Family Stone, The Who etc.
	6:18pm CC: ok photo cha cha... that's probably it!!!
	6:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It's definitely not my Internet - I've been watching that like a hawk.
	6:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - wow! You got to see John Fogerty!! Bit of a hero of mine :-)
	6:19pm Photocopy Cha Cha: Us folks outside USA recognize that hot dog commercial mainly thanks to the Simpsons
	6:19pm spacebrother: That happened last week with mine. I don't know what's going on with the stream.
	6:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Greg!!! :-)
	6:19pm CC: my favorite Gordon Lightfoot song!!!
	6:19pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @6:18 DJ GeorgyGirl: He would've been magnificent had he performer 100% his own stuff - amazingly the voice is still there.
	6:19pm Aitch: Prostate?
	6:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I adore Gordon Lightfoot.
	6:20pm Linda Lee: oh my. sad memories for this one.
	6:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda Lee - <3
	6:21pm StringOFperils: Hello, belatedly..
	6:21pm Linda Lee: <3
	6:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: StringOFperils! Hello! :-)
	6:22pm spacebrother: Hi GG!
	6:22pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I remember having to learn the Gordon Lightfoot song for junior high guitar class. Oh, my 70s teen life.
	6:22pm davefromtoronto: georgy girl if you haven't seen it the BBC gordon lightfoot show from 70's is fantastic
	6:22pm CC: Pride of Man was another favorite!!!
	6:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @davefromtoronto - hello!!! I have to find that now!!! :-)
	6:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm not happy that Greg is having stream problems too, but I'm relieved it's not just me. Sometimes I take it as a Sheena attack on me personally. lol
	6:24pm Linda Lee: for a while there the whole station was a mess. never just you.
	6:24pm davefromtoronto: oh you're in for a treat! here's one link with it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmkgIxIJuck
	6:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you davefromtoronto! :-)
	6:25pm Hopey Sockmonkey: It's kind of a mess right now. . .
	6:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Greg - I played Billy Joel for you earlier ;-)
	6:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yep - I can see the stream breaking :-(
	6:26pm Photocopy Cha Cha: thanks to the silly musicians union rules the BBC TV music performances from 1966 to dunnowhen (late 70s?) are, a few promo videos aside, either live (to some extent) or unique recordings. Plenty of treasures there, as well as the radio sessions (also thanks to the musicians union's "needle time" restrictions for the radio from early 60s)
	6:26pm StringOFperils: Stream outages seem to be happening occasionally, even today....the Jersey rats are trying to steal the satellite dish off the roof of the station.
	6:26pm Linda Lee: Otis makes me giggle regardless.
	6:27pm CC: Tony Joe!!!
	6:27pm Linda Lee: the stream is a mess, though.
	6:27pm StringOFperils: They're gentrified rats.
	6:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Chomp! Chomp!
	6:27pm Linda Lee: hasn't been this bad in a while.
	6:28pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Is this happening on the other channels too?
	6:28pm Photocopy Cha Cha: sadly there is no picture, so no guy with a Max Headroom mask interrupting the show..
	6:28pm CC: Something is messing up...that's for sure!!!
	6:29pm StringOFperils: Sun spots.
	6:29pm Linda Lee: no idea about the other channels at all.
	6:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Max Headroom! There's a blast from the past :-)
	6:30pm CC: Call the skeleton crew!!!
	6:30pm Linda Lee: here we go. :-)
	6:30pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Well, Windy seems to be playing now.
	6:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yep - I'm going to message the techs after the show :-(
	6:31pm Linda Lee: isn't this luscious!
	6:31pm StringOFperils: The Association fixes EVERYTHING
	6:31pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The harmonies on this are just glorious :-)
	6:32pm Linda Lee: so glad we've gone back a few years. :-)
	6:32pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @6:29 DJ GeorgyGirl: you know this incident where a chigao tv channel WGN had an interruption where the said Max HEadroom-mask wearing guy showed up for a few seconds until the intended signal was back. Then later the same video interrupted a WTTW broadcast of Dr. Who, this time in its entirety with sound and all
	6:32pm CC: Windy always played nice back to with hey there Georgy Girl!!!
	6:32pm StringOFperils: The playlist looks like an actual playlist form 1973--ish
	6:32pm Photocopy Cha Cha: this must be your theme tune not Georgy Girl :)
	6:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - I saw that on YouTube! That is WEIRD!!!
	6:33pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Photocopy - I mean ... I am a vegan of a certain age ;-)
	6:33pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oh damn, it's cutting into one of my fave old commercials That'sa Spicy Meata Ball!
	6:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is so frustrating!!!
	6:34pm Photocopy Cha Cha: @6:33 DJ GeorgyGirl: sdadly I am a failed vegan - can't resist cheese.
	6:34pm Linda Lee: we're fine now.
	6:34pm StringOFperils: That streamed okay over here, the commercials montage that you say kicked out
	6:35pm StringOFperils: So that's interesting
	6:35pm Linda Lee: here's a little proto-glam yes?
	6:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ah well - clean archive it is then
	6:36pm StringOFperils: More in the progessive rock camp, aka prog
	6:37pm Linda Lee: absolutely brilliant golden sunlight pouring into the room for this one. very nice.
	6:37pm Photocopy Cha Cha: GLAM PROG!!!
	6:38pm Linda Lee: the organ part is prog, but that chunky shuffle thing ..
	6:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ok, lovelies - I have sent the clean file over for the archives, so we have that at least :-)
	6:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This was HUGE in our house :-)
	6:38pm Linda Lee: so you were still in the States for this stuff, GG?
	6:39pm Linda Lee: must have been, for the meatballs & Palmolive
	6:39pm StringOFperils: I don't know this Gilbert Becaud at all
	6:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Trying to think ... we left Vancouver around February '75
	6:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: We went over in April '66 :-)
	6:40pm Linda Lee: oh, sure then! this was very early 70s.
	6:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I love that groovy little 60s organ in the background :-)
	6:42pm Linda Lee: how funny, i don't remember that last one at all! i do remember the Jim Croce though.
	6:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I was in our kitchen when the news came through about Jim Croce. :-(
	6:43pm Elizabeth: I never heard of Gilbert Becaud either! Jim Croce was all over the radio when I was a kid!
	6:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Don't forget that you have the immense Greg after me with Stop Hitting Yourself :-) www.wfmu.org...
	6:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think Gilbert Becaud was more of a chanson type artist who had this one crossover hit :-)
	6:45pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I have a fondness for the Sinatra version of the Jim Croce song on his Main Event live album. It's wonderfully hack.
	6:46pm CC: an all time fave here!!!
	6:46pm Aitch: I was humming this Donovan this morning, must have heard it somewhere else lately?
	6:46pm Linda Lee: ahhhhh.. back to the 60s! :-)
	6:46pm Photocopy Cha Cha: I can't believe the contemporary attitudes some had about Donovan, in the vein of "compared to Dylan he is a teenybopper".
	6:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: During my parents VERY long engagement, my mother dumped my father (a five year engagement ..he was dragging his heels) and she briefly dated Donovan. Fast forward to the early 70s and every time my parents had an argument. my mother would put a Donovan record on VERY LOUD and just glare at my father ;-)
	6:46pm Linda Lee: that's sort of the way we felt at the time, too..
	6:47pm Aitch: Never find myself humming Dylan...
	6:47pm Rich in Washington: Goddamn Osmond Brothers breaking in!
	6:47pm Elizabeth: The Osmonds have hi-jacked your show- Crazy Horses!
	6:47pm spacebrother: Signal dropped again.
	6:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Aitch - I'm not sure it's physically possible ;-)
	6:48pm StringOFperils: Stream is particularly cranky today...oh well, for one reason or another I've listened to several of your recent shows in the archives, and all out of order, so it looks like that'll continue :)
	6:48pm CC: sounds like somebody's playing games to me!!!
	6:48pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Yeah, The Osmonds have strong armed their into the show.
	6:48pm Rich in Washington: Whoa! That's crazy horses, GeorgyGirl! The Donovan connection, I mean!
	6:48pm Linda Lee: hahahah!! that's very funny, GG.
	6:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is soul-destroying for me :-(
	6:48pm Mr Fab: Hey hey, GeeGee! Been doin stuff, but just had to pop in to say: your friend was WRONG about Congregation! "Softly Whispering I Love You" is a great record.
	6:49pm Linda Lee: the oscar meyer song?
	6:49pm StringOFperils: www.google.com...
	6:49pm Hopey Sockmonkey: It seems to be back again, Oscar Meyer weiner commercial.
	6:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - hello!!! There you go! He has no taste ;-)
	6:50pm Linda Lee: was that your oscar meyer commercial, GG?
	6:50pm Elizabeth: It's back!
	6:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That was my Oscar Meyer commercial :-)
	6:51pm Linda Lee: ah good. :-)
	6:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is genuinely getting to me :-(
	6:51pm Linda Lee: the best piece on Johnny Mathis i've read is in John Waters' 'Role Models'. it's fabulous.
	6:52pm Linda Lee: what is, GG?
	6:52pm Photocopy Cha Cha: as I buy my records for the music rather than collector purposes, Donovan and The Beatles are the only artists I have the same record in both mono and stereo - so you can guess I really do like their music!
	6:52pm Mr Fab: Weird hearing Johnny Mathis doing this. I love his voice, I 'm just so used to The Stylistics' version.
	6:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The whole stream thing
	6:52pm Linda Lee: ah. well. we're fine now.
	6:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The stream better not cut out during the last track!!
	6:53pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I am very used to the Stylistics version as well. It was a low rider favorite back in the day :)
	6:54pm Photocopy Cha Cha: don't worry GG, think of all the joyful relief you offer us. as necessary as air and water nowadays!
	6:54pm Elizabeth: I loved the Armistead Maupin memoir- thanks for a great show as always!
	6:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you, each and every one of my lovely, lovely Turists <3
	6:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Especially thank you for bearing with me!
	6:54pm spacebrother: Ah, 10cc...
	6:55pm Linda Lee: thank you so much love. again! <3
	6:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Greg - here's your warm cloud :-)
	6:55pm StringOFperils: The stream outages didn't impinge on the enjoyment one iota
	6:55pm Photocopy Cha Cha: For me, the best £0.10 ever spent, this 7"
	6:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Massive hugs to ALL of you :-) <3
	6:57pm Linda Lee: hugs! :-)
	6:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: :-)
	6:57pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Thanks for the show, GG!
	6:58pm Photocopy Cha Cha: Virgin Suicides got rather mixed reviews but I go all "WAAAAAAAA!" when this starts playing in it.
	6:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank YOU!!! :-)
	6:58pm Elizabeth: I always associate this song with "the Virgin Suicides' and my childhood
	6:59pm Photocopy Cha Cha: Perfect ending. Thank YOU, GG! Let's be careful out there
	6:59pm CC: Great show, regardless, Georgy Girl..!..Cheerz!!!!
	6:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is complete bliss <3
	6:59pm Photocopy Cha Cha: there were no glitches during this song GG!
