	9:17am BenZ WPB: This Herbie Nichols is jammin!
	9:17am Kpx: ♪The best part of waking up is having bob brainen in my coffee cup♪..... BoB! get the hex outta there before you get scolded with hot coffee!.
	9:17am Doug in JC: Good morning everyone I made enchiladas last night. Might be my biggest cooking project for the weekend
	9:18am Zetti: Dang, chile rellenos is one of my ultimate favs. I'm not eating anything half as good this morn.
	9:18am Jeff: The Soul Queen of New Orleans!
	9:19am Wendy del Formaggio: I'm baking an apple pie, and possibly some cornbread. I may make sloppy joes, too, from scratch, and roasted vegetables. Oh, and today I'm taking the sauerruben out of fermentation and putting it in the fridge.
	9:20am Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Holy cow, Bob, that Irma Thomas track was just wonderful!
	9:21am Uncle Michael: We're having leftover scratch-made sloppy joes tonight. I have a pie planned. I bought an extra bag of organic sweet dark cherries at Costco. Probably make the pie midweek.
	9:21am Yes: morning all
	🥁 9:21am wmfromdumont: This album gets better with time.
	🥁 9:22am Brian in UK: Hello Bob & Ruth. Oh, is there a better voice than Rick Danko.
	9:22am PaulRobeson1920: Good morning WFMU land
	9:22am Zetti: Now I really feel bad about my breakfast... Thanks Wendy and all ;)
	9:22am RB: Morning folks
	9:22am Dennis Diken: Good morning Bob & everyone! love this Band cut!
	9:23am JG: One guy in The Band had a more compelling voice than the next, with the exception of course of the guitar player who didn't need to sing. Oh yeah and the organ player. But the other three all had such interesting voices.
	9:23am Jeff: I was shooting hoops with my friend Phil in Coney Island. A guy comes up to the fence and asks “hey fellas, you got a joint?” It was Rick Danko, and, unfortunately, we didn’t have anything.
	9:24am Zoot: The new Stage Fright cd sounds great
	9:24am Gaylord Fields: Good morning, Bob! I’m very happy to be awake early enough on a Saturday to get to listen to your entire show for once.
	9:24am phat: The band sure were good.
	9:25am Zetti: Cool story Jeff.
	9:26am phat: @Gaylord Fields I literally set my alarm for this show.
	9:26am Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Gaylord!
	9:26am dano59: @JG: aesthetics aside, how many voices take verses on The Weight and Million $ Bash? Not RR, but did Garth sing on those,? Or just Levon, Richard and Rick?
	9:27am Big Pink: Sorry the new Stage Fright remaster sounds like crap. Bad job Bob Clearmountain and of course selfish Robbie.
	9:27am melinda: Nice to hear Rick Danko.
	9:29am bil OHara: great set as always
	9:30am bil OHara: rick danko
	9:31am JG: @dano, On The Weight, its always (still) so odd and cool when Danko takes a verse. Otherwise I thought all Helm. Don't Know about Garth singing.For the Million Dollar Bash I love the version on Dylans Bootleg release where I thought only Bob singing
	9:32am Big Pink: Danko solo album.
	🥁 9:34am wmfromdumont: On Million $ Bash: Dylan with Manuel on the chorus. Levon hadn't returned to the fold yet.
	9:34am JG: @ big Pink, Don't know the Danko solo album. Is it good?
	9:34am dano59: My old drummer plays harp and started a 7-piece Butterfield tribute band a few years ago, covering the entire catalogue in stages. The second iteration was East-West Blues Band. I kept asking him to add a member and be Butterfield 8.
	9:35am Big Pink: Yes. And listen to Rick with Butterfield.
	🥁 9:35am Brian in UK: I had the pleasure of seeing the Band at the Royal Albert Hall, just been issued, I believe.
	9:36am CalZone!: Lincoln Lincoln Bo Bincoln was indeed her musical director, producer, and collaborator!
	9:36am JG: @ Band fans, ever here Manuel's vocal , with the Hawks, on Honky Tonk?I think based on this he may have had the best voice. Amazing. Like Ray Charles but better.
	9:37am Bob: Thanks all, got some technical stuff I'm dealing with.
	9:38am dano59: @JG my error - I might have been thinking of the Fairport or Long Ryders doing Bash and trading verses. It’s be cool if Double Dip Recess was simulcasting this Shirley Ellis.
	9:38am Rick from SC: A very fast waltz
	9:39am BenZ WPB: Never saw the Band but remember seeing Rick Danko at the Lone Star Cafe in Manhattan in the early 80s
	9:39am dano59: Richard sang like an angel .. and a devil.
	9:40am phat: Boy, I have to wonder if Pavement listened to a lot of Sopwith Camel.
	9:40am Jeff: Only Bob can follow Shirley Ellis with Sopwith Camel and make it work!
	9:42am Rick from SC: This is more my speed
	9:42am Earth: Thank you. We remain.
	9:42am Steve from Dunwoody: Sound. Aaahhhh.
	9:43am dano59: Time to do some dishes and get ready for a post office run... talk among yourselves
	9:45am Zoot: The Stage Fright remaster sounds better on my stereo.Can only compare it to the record.
	🥁 9:48am wmfromdumont: Was he digging a hole on his lawn or just digging his lawn?
	9:48am adamdoesit: Good morning, Bob and friends. These Heliocentrics will help me to dry out from the rain.
	9:50am Ross T.: Always love me some pre-Joker Steve Miller.
	9:50am Kpx: Kites are fun would have played perfectly off that digging my lawn song, so much so I had expected to hear it.
	9:52am Bozz Scaggs: Yeah we he was good. Fillmore West,Carousel Ballroom 1967
	9:52am Marc Francis: Dang. I've always HATED the Steve Miller Band. Was thinking "this song is pretty, I wonder who it is?" IT'S THE STEVE MILLER BAND
	9:53am joe mulligan: I can hear the marketing execs from surf brand Quiksilver salivating at the thought of that song for advertising. Good thing their women's line is called Roxy instead.
	9:55am Todd E: Always love some Herbie Nichols. I forgot I have some of his albums in the vault.
	🥁 9:57am wmfromdumont: Chico had so many good bands over the years.
	9:58am Todd E: Those early Chico albums were so lyrical. Dig the ones with strings.
	10:06am Kpx: Charlie Brown is getting down with this, and so am I.
	🥁 10:07am wmfromdumont: Bob, the few times I've heard his name said, it was pronounced the way you did.
	10:13am egould310: So was the girl actually a bird? I’m confused.
	10:18am Dave the Spazz: Enjoying the show, Bob!
	10:21am Davefrom Brooklyn: Hey Bob, thanks for helming the Goodship WFMU on this dreary Saturday morning
	10:23am Jeff: Aaaaah haaaaaaw!
	10:29am gf2002: Groovy Vox ad!
	10:29am CalZone!: LOX!
	10:31am DJ Guin: Der BINGLE!!!! Watch out before he beats you with a bag of sweet Valencia oranges....
	10:32am no: gearing up for a massive indie dj event at a waterfall for the current full moon. will go at midnight (in 90 min )... happy that I can blast THIS BRAINEN for the beer and rum warm up :P
	10:34am northguineahills: got here for the end!
	10:36am CalZone!: Great show Bob! Enjoying the diverse mix as always!
	🥁 10:40am wmfromdumont: This is a very L.A. kinda song for me.
	10:41am Ross T.: Just thinking...I can count on Bob!
	10:42am Baker of Brooklyn: Great show as usual, young schmann! A Springfield song I somehow overlooked—amazing. I find those string arrangements on the Young songs a little cloying. Have you seen the interviews with Stills vs. Parks on the origin of the band name?
	10:44am gf2002: I hear so many people say the tragedy of Buffalo Springfield is that very little exists on tape of them playing live in their prime, and that's what made them one of the best bands of that whole scene, especially the guitar duels between Stills and Young. I absolutely love that episode of Mannix where the Springfield is playing in the background at a nightclub, and you can hear Stills and Young trading leads on Bluebird, totally different from the studio version.
	10:47am Dennis Diken: “Coconut Grove” - oh, yeah!
	10:47am gf2002: Springfield and The Spoonful in the same set! Thank you Bob, that's awesome! I just did a deep dive into The Spoonful over the past two weeks, a lot of newer interviews and videos I had never seen. What a fascinating history behind that band.
	10:47am watchpocket: Lovin' this Lovin' Spoonful and lovin' the show today, Bob.
	10:47am JG: I always think of John Sebastian as the most pure folkster because he actually grew up in Greenwich Village. I guess true of Van Tonk, too. But that seems like such a rarified experience
	10:48am JG: Ronk
	10:48am Jeff: Van Ronk grew up in Queens
	10:48am Santos L Halper: @gf2002: yes, and on the other tune they play (FWIW?). So rare to hear lengthy jams on a show like that. And a hilarious episode too, with the psychedelic professor and the jocks dropping acid etc. And Tom Skerrit!
	10:49am SmokinJ: Mannix Rocks! 8-)
	10:50am Michael Shelley: I think 2 drummers on the Elvis track
	10:51am gf2002: It was great to dig deeper and see how much more important Steve Boone and Joe Butler were to the band overall than a lot of histories have suggested.
	10:51am JG: @ Jeff , but he was the mayor of Macdougal street. I don't remember from the book Queens. But my memory is not too good, you may be right
	10:51am gf2002: Mannix was one of the coolest shows of all time!
	🥁 10:52am wmfromdumont: Neil Young had rejoined the band only a day or two before the Mannix episode was shot.
	10:52am WM: I'm glad you worked in both Herbie Nichols and Mary Lou Williams.
	10:53am gf2002: And Lalo Schifrin's Mannix theme is one of the coolest soundtrack themes of all time!
	10:53am Andrew in Toronto: This is downright sublime!
	10:54am JG: Only seen Mannix a few times. I gotta investigate this Buffalo Springfield thing. Thanks, Bob. Have a great day Brainiacs
	10:55am Baker of Brooklyn: There are several good musical episodes of Mannix: Peppermint Trolley shreds!
	10:56am raspberryberet: morning!
	10:56am Corey: Thanks Bob for the great show! Thank you skeleton crew! Wish everyone a nice Saturday.
	10:56am gf2002: @Santos Yes, the other was For What It's Worth, and again a totally different take on the song, not just miming to the record. Well worth checking out, I think the clips are still on YouTube. And Neil Diamond appeared on Mannix performing in that first season too
	10:57am StringOFperils: Tasteful as always. Thanks, great show!
	10:57am Listener Bop Monroe: another wonderful start to the Saturday. thnx again Mr. BB. until next week: "Mannix!"
	10:58am Andrew in Toronto: Thanks for another amazing show Bob!
	🥁 10:59am wmfromdumont: Great show Bob!
	10:59am gf2002: Thank you for another amazing show Bob!
	10:59am CalZone!: Thanks Bob!
	11:02am Bob: Thanks everyone!
	11:02am Corey: Good morning Michael, skeleton crew, and listeners!

	9:36am JG: @ Band fans, ever here Manuel's vocal , with the Hawks, on Honky Tonk?I think based on this he may have had the best voice. Amazing. Like Ray Charles but better.
	9:37am Bob: Thanks all, got some technical stuff I'm dealing with.
	9:38am dano59: @JG my error - I might have been thinking of the Fairport or Long Ryders doing Bash and trading verses. It’s be cool if Double Dip Recess was simulcasting this Shirley Ellis.
	9:38am Rick from SC: A very fast waltz
	9:39am BenZ WPB: Never saw the Band but remember seeing Rick Danko at the Lone Star Cafe in Manhattan in the early 80s
	9:39am dano59: Richard sang like an angel .. and a devil.
	9:40am phat: Boy, I have to wonder if Pavement listened to a lot of Sopwith Camel.
	9:40am Jeff: Only Bob can follow Shirley Ellis with Sopwith Camel and make it work!
	9:42am Rick from SC: This is more my speed
	9:42am Earth: Thank you. We remain.
	9:42am Steve from Dunwoody: Sound. Aaahhhh.
	9:43am dano59: Time to do some dishes and get ready for a post office run... talk among yourselves
	9:45am Zoot: The Stage Fright remaster sounds better on my stereo.Can only compare it to the record.
	🥁 9:48am wmfromdumont: Was he digging a hole on his lawn or just digging his lawn?
	9:48am adamdoesit: Good morning, Bob and friends. These Heliocentrics will help me to dry out from the rain.
	9:50am Ross T.: Always love me some pre-Joker Steve Miller.
	9:50am Kpx: Kites are fun would have played perfectly off that digging my lawn song, so much so I had expected to hear it.
	9:52am Bozz Scaggs: Yeah we he was good. Fillmore West,Carousel Ballroom 1967
	9:52am Marc Francis: Dang. I've always HATED the Steve Miller Band. Was thinking "this song is pretty, I wonder who it is?" IT'S THE STEVE MILLER BAND
	9:53am joe mulligan: I can hear the marketing execs from surf brand Quiksilver salivating at the thought of that song for advertising. Good thing their women's line is called Roxy instead.
	9:55am Todd E: Always love some Herbie Nichols. I forgot I have some of his albums in the vault.
	🥁 9:57am wmfromdumont: Chico had so many good bands over the years.
	9:58am Todd E: Those early Chico albums were so lyrical. Dig the ones with strings.
	10:06am Kpx: Charlie Brown is getting down with this, and so am I.
	🥁 10:07am wmfromdumont: Bob, the few times I've heard his name said, it was pronounced the way you did.
	10:13am egould310: So was the girl actually a bird? I’m confused.
	10:18am Dave the Spazz: Enjoying the show, Bob!
	10:21am Davefrom Brooklyn: Hey Bob, thanks for helming the Goodship WFMU on this dreary Saturday morning
	10:23am Jeff: Aaaaah haaaaaaw!
	10:29am gf2002: Groovy Vox ad!
	10:29am CalZone!: LOX!
	10:31am DJ Guin: Der BINGLE!!!! Watch out before he beats you with a bag of sweet Valencia oranges....
	10:32am no: gearing up for a massive indie dj event at a waterfall for the current full moon. will go at midnight (in 90 min )... happy that I can blast THIS BRAINEN for the beer and rum warm up :P
	10:34am northguineahills: got here for the end!
	10:36am CalZone!: Great show Bob! Enjoying the diverse mix as always!
	🥁 10:40am wmfromdumont: This is a very L.A. kinda song for me.
	10:41am Ross T.: Just thinking...I can count on Bob!
	10:42am Baker of Brooklyn: Great show as usual, young schmann! A Springfield song I somehow overlooked—amazing. I find those string arrangements on the Young songs a little cloying. Have you seen the interviews with Stills vs. Parks on the origin of the band name?
	10:44am gf2002: I hear so many people say the tragedy of Buffalo Springfield is that very little exists on tape of them playing live in their prime, and that's what made them one of the best bands of that whole scene, especially the guitar duels between Stills and Young. I absolutely love that episode of Mannix where the Springfield is playing in the background at a nightclub, and you can hear Stills and Young trading leads on Bluebird, totally different from the studio version.
	10:47am Dennis Diken: “Coconut Grove” - oh, yeah!
	10:47am gf2002: Springfield and The Spoonful in the same set! Thank you Bob, that's awesome! I just did a deep dive into The Spoonful over the past two weeks, a lot of newer interviews and videos I had never seen. What a fascinating history behind that band.
	10:47am watchpocket: Lovin' this Lovin' Spoonful and lovin' the show today, Bob.
	10:47am JG: I always think of John Sebastian as the most pure folkster because he actually grew up in Greenwich Village. I guess true of Van Tonk, too. But that seems like such a rarified experience
	10:48am JG: Ronk
	10:48am Jeff: Van Ronk grew up in Queens
	10:48am Santos L Halper: @gf2002: yes, and on the other tune they play (FWIW?). So rare to hear lengthy jams on a show like that. And a hilarious episode too, with the psychedelic professor and the jocks dropping acid etc. And Tom Skerrit!
	10:49am SmokinJ: Mannix Rocks! 8-)
	10:50am Michael Shelley: I think 2 drummers on the Elvis track
	10:51am gf2002: It was great to dig deeper and see how much more important Steve Boone and Joe Butler were to the band overall than a lot of histories have suggested.
	10:51am JG: @ Jeff , but he was the mayor of Macdougal street. I don't remember from the book Queens. But my memory is not too good, you may be right
	10:51am gf2002: Mannix was one of the coolest shows of all time!
	🥁 10:52am wmfromdumont: Neil Young had rejoined the band only a day or two before the Mannix episode was shot.
	10:52am WM: I'm glad you worked in both Herbie Nichols and Mary Lou Williams.
	10:53am gf2002: And Lalo Schifrin's Mannix theme is one of the coolest soundtrack themes of all time!
	10:53am Andrew in Toronto: This is downright sublime!
	10:54am JG: Only seen Mannix a few times. I gotta investigate this Buffalo Springfield thing. Thanks, Bob. Have a great day Brainiacs
	10:55am Baker of Brooklyn: There are several good musical episodes of Mannix: Peppermint Trolley shreds!
	10:56am raspberryberet: morning!
	10:56am Corey: Thanks Bob for the great show! Thank you skeleton crew! Wish everyone a nice Saturday.
	10:56am gf2002: @Santos Yes, the other was For What It's Worth, and again a totally different take on the song, not just miming to the record. Well worth checking out, I think the clips are still on YouTube. And Neil Diamond appeared on Mannix performing in that first season too
	10:57am StringOFperils: Tasteful as always. Thanks, great show!
	10:57am Listener Bop Monroe: another wonderful start to the Saturday. thnx again Mr. BB. until next week: "Mannix!"
	10:58am Andrew in Toronto: Thanks for another amazing show Bob!
	🥁 10:59am wmfromdumont: Great show Bob!
	10:59am gf2002: Thank you for another amazing show Bob!
	10:59am CalZone!: Thanks Bob!
	11:02am Bob: Thanks everyone!
	11:02am Corey: Good morning Michael, skeleton crew, and listeners!
