9:15am SmokinJ:

What's shakin' bb? Mornin' all! 8-)

9:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

@Jack : WiFis I steal @ home just came back - randomly far as I know.

9:18am Jeff:

Hey Doc Rock, Bob and the rest of you.
Good Morning to all!

9:18am TDK60:

Yeh Jack, I'm always sayin' that to folks about Steve Miller; almost a "meme" eh? Hee. (Like the early Elton John albums!)

9:19am Bob Brainen:

Agree w/you totally on the 1st 5 Millers, Jack. Hey SmokinJ, eveything's shakin'! Hey Revolution Rabbit Nov63 & Jeff. Welcome all!

9:19am Jack:

"My Dark Hour" on "Brave New World" has McCartney playing drums, singing and co-writing (I think)

9:20am 1whoknewcthulhu:

The original Dr. J! Hard to believe that Gris Gris has crested a half century.

9:20am adamdoesit:

Every time I hear Slim's Jam, it pains me that it isn't half an hour long. This set feels like the remedy.

9:21am wendy del formaggio:

This opening set is so dang good.

9:22am Joe Merklee:

I read that at some point Vivian Stanshall of the Bonzo Dog Band wanted to start a band that would have 3 front men- himself, Captain Beefheart and Dr.John. I can't imagine...

9:22am Zoot:

Very groovy morning.I was just watching Slim and Slam videos last night.

9:23am Zoot:

Steve Miller lives on Riverside Drive.

9:24am adamdoesit:

@Zoot There are *videos?* Omg. Slam Stewart's the man, bass-wise.

9:24am Bob Brainen:

Thanks Adam, yeah I could dig a lot more time w/ Slim and company. Thanks Wendy! Hey Zoot. Joe, I'm not sure Capt. B. could share the front space w/anyone else!

9:24am Zoot:

Got the videos on please kill me

9:29am Zoot:

Saw Willie Dixon at a small club once,had a nice chat.Was great to see him.

9:36am Bob Brainen:

Nice! I saw him with a touring band of Bluesmen at Utica College in NY state. The best thing was my Mom and Dad were there with me and we all loved it.

9:37am Pedro in Arlington:

Sounds like Juniper learned Japanese.

9:41am Zoot:

Saw Quicksilver performance of Edward at the Fillmore.

🥁

9:42am WilliamfromDumont:

Hearing this reminds me that the 3rd Quicksilver doesn't get enough love.

9:42am Jack:

Nicky Hopkins - another amazing musician who doesn't get enough recognition. The Stones, the Who, Jeff Beck Group, many more. I saw him with Quicksilver at the Fillmore too!

9:43am egould310:

Goid morning from Seattle! Thanks for the tunes, Bob.

9:45am Jack:

Probably my favorite Hopkins' work is his piano on Leigh Stephens "Red Weather' album.

9:45am Doc Rock:

@Jack - Nicky did good work with The Kinks also.

9:47am Jack:

So, is Nicky Hopkins in the (so called) Rock & Roll Hall of Fame?

9:47am Doc Rock:

Not in TRRHOF

9:47am TDK60:

and N.H. was on Jefferson Airplane's Volunteers too.

9:48am Zoot:

Nicky died too young

9:48am Zoot:

Saw Nicky with the Airplane also.

9:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Nicky Hopkins on TheWho's 1st album was enuff to earn my devotion.

9:49am Zoot:

I have friends who saw Nicky with the Jerry Garcia band.

9:50am Bob Brainen:

Morning Pedro, that's true Jack. Zoot, wow, you were lucky!
Yeah William, just listened to Shady Grove the other day, 1st time in decades. Enjoyed it a lot.
egould310, que pasa? Jack, that's an interesting choice. If I had to choose, I'd have to say Dandelion and We Love You w/Stones!
Zoot, you were in the thick of things, man!

9:50am Zoot:

The Jerry Garcia band w/Nicky Hopkins CD is really good.

9:51am Doc Rock:

Nicky who was a sickly lad all his life did indeed leave us all to soon. RIP.

9:54am Zoot:

I been everywhere man,I’ve been everywhere.

9:55am Jeff:

I always loved this 5th Dimension single!

9:56am Bob Brainen:

Yeah, you and Johnny Cash.

9:57am Greg from ZONE 5:

Morning, Bob & listeners!

9:57am Zoot:

I wish Icould sing that song.

9:58am Bob Brainen:

Hey Greg from ZONE 5, what's up in your zone?

9:58am Therese:

Hi Bob! Show is sounding great on this sunny morning.

9:58am Dubiousraves:

Good morning, Bob! A rare real-time listen for me...

9:58am Jeff:

I had tix to see Nicky Hopkins/Nils Lofgren at Bottom Line 1975 (first show after Springsteen’s fabled 5 night run). Alas, Nicky cancelled and Al Kooper (who I love) subbed. Nicky was certainly the English sideman extraordinaire!

9:58am Jack:

@Zoot, do you still have any of your ticket stubs from those old Fillmore shows? I don't; wish I did.

10:00am Zoot:

I think I just stuffed them in my pocket.I do have my Woodstock tix.

10:02am David in ATL from NJ:

Spot on comment about NBRBQ and that cover, Bob.

So fun to watch John and Terry on this.

10:06am Bob Brainen:

Hey thanks Therese! Glad to have you on board in real time, Dubiousraves, Jeff, just reading about that Nicky no-show. Nils & Kooper, not too shabby.
It's true, right Dave! They always do a great version of everything they choose and send you happily doing your homework!

10:06am Marc Francis:

CHOOOOOOOOON

10:07am Zoot:

Al Kooper did some great shows with Jimmmy Vivino.

10:10am Really Lisa:

Hi Bob and all. Been listening on a long drive. Stopped to say hello and thanks!
Peace, and safe weekend, all.

10:11am Doc Rock:

I also had tickets to see Nicky & Nils at the Bottom Line. Nicky was sick again. I was very bummed out.

10:12am mariano:

'Morning Bob, everyone!

10:15am Uncle Michael:

Good morning.

10:20am mariano:

Art Lund's vocal style needs to make a comeback.

10:21am Bob Brainen:

Jimmy Vivino is great w/ everyone, Zoot, isn't he?
Hey Really Lisa, thanks for checking in!
Morning mariano, hey Uncle Michael!

10:21am Hams:

joey!

10:22am Uncle Michael:

Joey Bishop Show theme song, as an instrumental.

10:25am Artie:

Good morning all!

10:28am Bob Brainen:

Ha, the bass-baritone, yeah.
Is that right, UM? I'd love to hear it.
Morning Artie.

10:29am Jeff:

I always thought that “Joey” song was about Joey Heatherton. Man, did I have a crush on her!

10:29am Uncle Michael:

Recollection is hazy, Bob. I'll now have to seek it out and refresh my ears.

10:30am Honeybear:

what a fine spot to tune in for, this morning - that last Crimson song

10:30am Honeybear:

And what a fine start to the morning, this program

10:31am mariano:

Bob B: Yeah, that Goulet-style of Broadway singing. Always had a soft spot for it.

10:31am Uncle Michael:

My Bernstein relatives say Bernsteeeeeeeeen.

🥁

10:31am WilliamfromDumont:

Nick Evans also in the short-lived 7-piece Soft Machine.

10:34am Brian in Charlottesville:

Good to hear your voice on WFMU, Bob.

10:34am adamdoesit:

Agree! Loesser's name should be greater.

10:36am phat:

I love how Paul flubs that last "in vain"

10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Two world class melodies @ once. I'm starting to think The Beatles weren't bad...

10:37am phat:

Bob, I'm so, so grateful you're back on Saturday mornings.

10:37am Bob Brainen:

OK Unc. Hey Honeybear, Robert Goulet, ha. Spokesman for Velour! I kid you not.
I always forget that, Wm. but I sorta spend more time with that 1st album.
Hey thanks, Brian in Charlottesville.

10:38am Listener Robert:

That "Joey" song makes me sooo sad. I guess the closest way to capture my reaction is to say that since childhood, instability has been one of my great fears, and that's a song about somebody's instability.

10:38am TDK60:

Don't hear enough Procol Harum on the radio.

10:39am mariano:

Goulet, the spokesman for Velour? That is just the most perfect thing ever!

10:39am phat:

@TDK60 i was just thinking I need to listen to more Procul Harem.

10:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Never given Theatre music much attention - but that guy had lungs that could fill a building - & an accessible style too.

10:40am Cooh John:

Good morning Bob and brainiacs.

10:40am Patrick:

Good morning Bob.Mr.Lester skillfully produced a daily Western TV show in a West Philadelphia parking lot.

10:42am Zoot:

Heading to the tiki bar

10:42am Mike Sin:

Enjoying the variety of today’s show, Bob, as I clean my fur ball of a house!

10:42am Uncle Michael:

Almost every "standard" is theatre music.

10:42am Listener Robert:

I'm not familiar with the play that 'Joey" is from. Is instability a major theme of it?

10:43am StringOFperils:

Yup, this sounds like music made in the year 2020.

10:46am Bob Brainen:

Listener Robert, that's a heavy interpretation. I hear it as a song of wanderlust, which is close I guess. Yeah, I like Theatre music is smallish doses.
Hey Cooh John.
Morning Patrick, what's "Mr. Lester" in reference to?
Hey Mike!
Not sure Listener Robert, only know a song or 2. Standing on the corner watching all the girls go buy is the other boiggie.
With Stubby Kaye!

10:48am 1whoknewcthulhu:

Always remember Stubby as Nicely Nicely in Guys & Dolls.

10:50am Uncle Michael:

Not locating the 1967 Joey Bishop talk show theme, and Regis is no longer available to ask about it. I'm not giving up.

10:54am Jeff:

Jackie Mittoo - a tragic story!

🥁

10:54am WilliamfromDumont:

Whatever happened to Hairy Mary?

10:54am Roberto:

I love what Michigan SOS Jocelyn Benson said when some nimrods tried to disrupt the vote counting process -- "If they think they can intimidate Detroit workers, they don't know Detroit."

10:55am StringOFperils:

Sometimes I'm Happy

10:57am Uncle Michael:

SOP, that's his sitcom, not his talk show.

10:57am Honeybear:

That Detroit song almost makes me want to move there

10:58am Dean:

Here, UM? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdyDRjpPftU

First few seconds.

10:58am Uncle Michael:

Honeybear, that's an adaptation of the Supremes' song.

10:58am Andrew in Toronto:

Thanks, Bob.
That was a great show, as always.
See you all next week.

10:59am Honeybear:

@UM - noted!

10:59am Zetti:

Thank you Bob!

10:59am paul:

What is stack o vocals?

11:00am adamdoesit:

Time to hit the hardware store before they close. Thanks for the tunes, the hang, the knowledge.

11:00am mariano:

Thank you!!!

11:00am Uncle Michael:

Thanks Bob!

11:01am Corey:

Thanks Bob and crew! Really enjoyed. Quick two hours. Take care all.

11:01am Honeybear:

@paul - I would say a song (or a performance) that comes to us in "layers" -- that is, has facets and multiple levels of quality

11:03am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Thx DJ BB !
