@paul: Not seen 'Yesterday' yet ! That's what if only one guy remembered The Beatles now ...not sure how they deal with what happened to music & culture without them - but I think I'll enjoy it... As both a Beatletard & a Garage Rawk lover - examing what was already happening in the USA interests me.

Thanks for the Gladys Night segment Micheal, though Motown seemingly is historical mainstream, I just don’t hear much of it on the radio anymore, plus it’s in my DNA, where periodic injections are needed, so I’m grateful for that today!

I picture Jack running a gang of hardened TP thieves for the first six months of the pandemic, roaming the Jersey wastes and striking terror into hearts (and other parts) of the TP hoarders, robbing the TP rich and giving to the TP poor.

Roughly accurate?

HI Michael. I live with Laura Davis-Chanin. Paul Rutner told us you were featuring Student Teachers today. You know she wrote "The Girl in the Back" that brought the band members back together for the book and the launch party. Lost Notes is good but she was a bit disappointed that you played Christina! She had left the band by then and it is not really representative of the core sound! Anyway, enjoying the show. Oh yes, Im British and now retired - in broadcasting for 40 years. Cheers

This sounds great....so I assume this is a recording from the "classic" line-up (Al, Joey & co.). Saw one of their amazing shows in '92 at the Bottom Line, and a few years later w/Johnny taking over for Al.
