	11:30am LastWhiteRhino: Thanks Will and everyone else. Much appreciated.
	11:31am clarke: howdy from St. Francisville, LA = made it out of new orleans LATE last night - headed west.
	11:31am modern blaze: Panic in the Needle Park (1972)
	11:32am Artie: "Between The Buttons" is apparently a term meaning "undecided".
	11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...A Jagger-Richards-Wood-McCartney-Starr fantasy is already being bandied aboot... Less nonsensical than our Whotles fantasies, perhaps...
	11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Artie - never knew. Makes sense...
	11:34am modern blaze: funky guitars a least what Rolling Stones wanted!
	11:34am Artie: I'll admit that I'm quite worried about New Orleans. Listened to WWOZ all morning, and looking at the NHC forecast.
	11:34am Frank In Queens: Hey clarke, I was thinking about you amidst all these reports of the hurricane. Glad you got to safety.
	11:35am DonJuanTijuana: AWESOME!!! Super Treats to get more EFD today!!
	11:36am clarke: well - i am SAFER not completey there yet - staying in this awesome 30's motor court and will leave for westward later tonite
	11:36am Will the Sound Guy: I'm diggin the vibe Evan!
	11:36am efd: stay safe, @clarke. @LastWhiteRhino belatedly joining in with condolences for the loss of your buddy. It's one of the hardest things to go through.
	11:37am clarke: trying to close out my apartment whilst mourning charlie - no fun
	11:37am Joe B: stay safe clarke!
	11:37am clarke: danke all!!!
	11:37am Hughie Considine: A friend swore that Mick sings "everyone in Jamaica/out fuckin' in the sun"
	11:37am efd: this song isn't anywhere close to a favorite RS song but this beat is unassailable.
	11:38am modern blaze: Lee Perry vibe here!
	11:39am marygidge: #2 hits. lol.
	11:39am efd: you may wonder, "EFD, are you playing a 7+ minute song just because of one fill" and the answer just might be yes
	11:40am Nate K: I think this will be the very first time my kid has heard this song.
	11:40am Sonny Rickles: Jimmy Miller played drums on this one
	11:40am Figgsrock: I hate to say this, but that’s Jimmy Miller doing that fill, EFD
	11:40am efd: oh FFS! That's what happens when you send a boy to do a man's job.
	11:41am Hoboken Jack: I got what i want -- EFD!!
	11:41am Joe B: doris troy (of just one look fame) singing here
	11:42am Figgsrock: Well, Charlie played that fill many many times live, so he pretty much owned it.
	11:42am Will the Sound Guy: Charlie was definitely an un-failable drummer... Never hats and snare on the same beat. Simplistic, swinging, and beautiful... Never wanted a solo. The flashiness is only in the perfect execution on the feel. As he rolled along, he was the stable rock that supported the Stones in their 50+ year campaign.
	11:42am modern blaze: prescriptions fears
	11:42am ?: As others have said, Charlie Watts doesn't play drums on Can't Always Get What You Want Great set though!
	11:43am Hoboken Jack: Belated r.i.p. Jimmy Miller
	11:43am Dennis Diken: Hey Evan & all! even though Jimmy Miller drums on “YCAGWYW” it sure sounds like Charlie- and it’s a testament to his lack of ego. I think the story is that Charlie couldn’t get the feel Miller was after so after he demonstrated it to Watts he simply let Jimmy play on the track!
	11:45am Dennis Diken: I think Jimmy Miller drums on “Happy” too. And Kenny Jones on “It’s Only Rock’n’Roll”
	11:45am Hoboken Jack: Hi Joe, Dennis, Frank, Spodi, Frank, Medson Man, everybody
	11:46am Joe B: for future reference, Miller also is on drums for Happy
	11:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx Mr. D. That does speak to Charlie's character.
	11:46am Frank In Queens: Hi Jack!
	11:47am gf2002: I just watched an interview last night with Al Kooper, where he describes how that session came about, and which song he took the piano riff from: Etta James covering "I Got You Babe". And the french horn was not Al Kooper himself playing it despite common knowledge.
	11:47am Dennis Diken: Yo Jack!
	11:47am Bootsie: Evan you could _totally_ make it up to us by playing Monkey Man ;-)
	11:47am pasquale denegri: Ahoy, Evan- Only discovered 1 day ago what others have confirmed re percussionist on YCAGWYW, to ur dismay. Thank you for your work; carry on.
	11:47am Bootsie: That story illustrates Charlie's demeanor so well.
	11:48am Ciggy: I 2nd that Bootsie ~ Monkey Man
	11:48am Slaboch: @Joe B here's hoping that you, TOPT and Cheryl don't get lost in Central Park at the YLT show next week and become 'The Worriers' again! Wish we could be there.
	11:49am Figgsrock: Now I have to ask, what song do you hate on Black and Blue EFD? Was it a single?
	11:49am Bootsie: @Ciggy it's my fave Stones!
	11:49am Paul: Is Cherry Oh Baby your least favorite Stones song?
	11:49am Joe B: @slaboch - damn, was hoping you were coming in for it!
	11:50am gf2002: "My Obsession" is the Stones session in LA where Brian Wilson was there as their guest, some potent joints were passed around the studio, and Brian declared "My Obsession" the greatest song he had ever heard.
	11:50am Slaboch: @JoeB Working at Woodsist later in the month, so gonna catch em' then. Miss y'all!
	11:50am Joe B: same - hope to see you!
	11:51am BennettCap: Let me guess. Your least favorite Stones song is Hey Negrita.
	11:51am Joe B: black and blue - crazy mama?
	11:51am Slaboch: @JoeB - Oh awesome! I'll be there all weekend working with Bridget St. John and Gunn. See ya soon!
	11:53am Figgsrock: Also, I’m am very excited that there’s a new Connells album on the horizon. The two songs they put out so far are very strong.
	11:54am Hoboken Jack: So awesome to hear new Connells!
	11:54am Joe B: wow, new connells
	11:57am Erella: I love this show. Thank you Evan
	11:57am efd: yeah, I was planning to lead off a set with that Connells song so I could properly introduce it but I got caught short
	11:58am spodiodi: that was a great one! hi, Jack!
	11:58am Birdman: Hope y’all are having a glorious weekend so far.
	11:58am Ciggy: I'm getting that Michael Shelley vibe coming through the airwaves!
	11:59am Will the Sound Guy: I should be getting this album any minute in the mail
	12:05pm clarke: The Bangle pronounced it Cane
	12:05pm LastWhiteRhino: @Evan F D: Thanks.
	12:06pm clarke: The Bangle = vicki peterson
	12:08pm slocker: Got foiled by the cloud!
	12:08pm Hoboken Jack: Connells, sans Holsapple, will be at Brooklyn Bowl 9/29.
	12:10pm gf2002: Nice to hear a track from the JEM Brian Wilson album!
	12:10pm gf2002: And the Beach Boys' "Feel Flows" box set finally came out yesterday! Amazing.
	12:12pm Joe B: the inadvertent charlie watts tribute - gett off of my icloud
	12:12pm zivilars: These fill-ins are my rare chance to listen to EFD live ... Love it, thanks for the show!
	12:12pm noisejoke: DUDE!!! Swinging Madisons???? DEEEEP!!!
	12:13pm Bootsie: Whoa I really like this! Never heard it before...
	12:14pm efd: lol @Joe B! btw the song I can't stand on Black And Blue is "Fool To Cry."
	12:15pm B R M: great show EFD
	12:15pm noisejoke: Madisons were 79/80 era Max's Kristian Hoffman jam.
	12:16pm Asheville Jon: social media airhorn is a good fill in sound
	12:16pm dave wuz here: full compliance with the truth in broadcasting act
	12:17pm clarke: love Fool To Cry = esp charlie's drum parts
	12:17pm Artie: Good Mwww.kristianhoffman.com... first-hand piece here:
	12:18pm Frank In Queens: One of the better tunes off this Cub Scout Bowling Pins album.
	12:18pm clarke: i like what i have heard, but haven't given it enough of a full listen, yet. been a little busy.
	12:19pm Will the Sound Guy: You're laying in down efd... No need to worry
	12:19pm Frank In Queens: Clarke, in my opinion, it can wait. It's not all that great. A bit disappointing coming off that prior EP.
	12:20pm Joe B: loving this orange peels album. band I've been listening to for 25 years still blows me away
	12:20pm clarke: have you listen to It IS Them in entirety, frank? i haven't
	12:21pm W Trenton Vinnie: i dunno how djs prepare for a Saturday morning, a tall order, on the receiving end, tuning in to an unexpected efd show is gold
	12:21pm clarke: -listened
	12:21pm Frank In Queens: clarke, not only have I not listened to any of it yet, I haven't even pre-ordered it! Usually I pull the trigger as soon as a new Bob album is announced.
	12:22pm clarke: right-O
	12:23pm clarke: i like the one song i heard = High In The Rain - thumbs UP
	12:26pm Frank In Queens: I'm feeling a bit Bob-burnt at the moment. Maybe the show on the 17th will kick my ass back in gear. That is, if I even wind up going. I'm on the fence due to Delta and all that nonsense...
	12:26pm DG: Dennis & others: In addition to "Happy", Miller plays in place of Watts on "Shine a Light" too (if you believe Wiki.). And "It's Only R&R" is based on a track that Jagger & Richards did w/Ron Wood (not yet in the band), Willie Weeks, K. Jones & Bowie (on bkg. vocals, although kinda hard to hear).
	12:27pm clarke: i understand, frank - i am not sure his vocals are getting 'full attention' these days - but the songs are there.
	12:27pm DG: If you're looking for more Watts deep cuts, he's on TWO songs on the Townshend/Lane "Rough Mix" collaboration, inc. "My Baby Gives It Away" ("Catmelody" by Lane is cool too).
	12:28pm Frank In Queens: Yeah, I agree. But if you believe the sycophantic portion of the fanbase, they're exactly as he intends them to be.
	12:29pm clarke: i just think that he is not trying as hard to be melodic??
	12:29pm Asheville Jon: just in time for the smah!
	12:30pm medson: YES
	12:30pm Bootsie: OH yeah!
	12:31pm spodiodi: nice!
	12:31pm Asheville Jon: nice! the ticket oasis!!!!
	12:31pm Ciggy: (Un)Technical problems. Sing it EFD!
	12:32pm Frank In Queens: I think he is definitely writing a bit differently right now compared to the past. I can appreciate that, but I'm not sure I like the more obtuse/Circus Devil-ish stuff that he's been putting out lately. But to each their own.
	12:32pm B R M: I'll be at the Bob Mould show... see the winner there!
	12:32pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ticket oasis at 209-200-9368!
	12:33pm prof.fuzz: Bob Almighty!
	12:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Praise Bob
	12:33pm clarke: agree there is something 'up' - but, also it is better than most everything else out there
	12:34pm Hoboken Jack: HP Ken!
	12:35pm Will the Sound Guy: The show I was supposed to run tonight got cancelled due to a risk of rain... ☔ I get to do things around the house instead, and listen to the greatest station of all time WFMU!!!
	12:36pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Jack. Happy Saturday!
	12:37pm Jenn in the BX: Candi!
	12:37pm Eddy in Australia: I’m freshly vaccinated so I’m eligible to enter ticket giveaway but they won’t let us out of the country. Hey Evan! Hey Clarke!
	12:37pm clarke: mate!!!!!
	12:38pm Eddy in Australia: Are you safe?
	12:38pm clarke: been missing ya, Eddy!!!
	12:38pm Frank In Queens: Absolutely. And I'm most definitely going to get the new album. I've just been slightly less motivated as I've been on a like/not like streak with every album since Sweating The Plague came out.
	12:38pm clarke: not quite yet - but making my way. i stopped at a motel late in the night
	12:39pm clarke: trying to drive late at night - and find GAS
	12:40pm clarke: agree Frank!
	12:40pm Eddy in Australia: Missed your discussion about Tobin Sprout a few weeks back cos I wasn’t listening live. I once saw a joint TS/Bob Pollard exhibition in NY. Preferred Tobin’s work but couldn’t afford to buy anything!
	12:40pm clarke: although i think i like Styles a lot more than u, ha ha
	12:41pm Frank In Queens: That was a great exhibition, Eddy. I bought a set of postcard repros as I couldn't afford an original piece as I was in the same boat as you.
	12:41pm clarke: man - tobin was selling a double-album with a white cover - wish you'd'a gotten that one
	12:42pm Frank In Queens: Most people do, clarke!
	12:42pm clarke: YESSSS Bob Welch - the other OTHER bob
	12:42pm Cooh John: French Kiss is a great album.
	12:42pm clarke: you are RIGHT cooh!!!!
	12:43pm HyperDose: Bob's best album in my opinion. One hell of a jazz guitarist
	12:43pm clarke: ha ha frank!!! ; ]
	12:44pm Eddy in Australia: @Frank I regret it now, though, might have been my only chance. Spoke briefly to TS, nice guy
	12:45pm clarke: oh Tobin is a fantastic person - sorta like charlie watts in a way.
	12:47pm clarke: hey Eddy - something we had been discussing a month ago....
	12:47pm spodiodi: i haven't heard much of Edward Rogers stuff at all. thanks for playing it, EFD!
	12:48pm o boy: Hilarious that my radio reception here in Newark I can't hear 91.1 w/o static.
	12:48pm clarke: ... concerning my "top ten" : the reason why there are songs at the front of the list is that i can't figure out my favorite beatles song - and been that way for decades.
	12:49pm clarke: but, currently (and long ago) I Need You might just edge others out for childhood reasons.
	12:50pm Eddy in Australia: That’s a lifelong discussion!
	12:51pm clarke: the childhood reasons being: when i first saw Help (in the theater - new release) - i thought those guys were actually playing live out on Solsberry Plain!!
	12:51pm Joe B: YES!
	12:51pm Doug in JC: Oh no
	12:52pm Susan Canby: Love it
	12:53pm P-90: Starbreaker! Now there’s a bona fide “#2 Hit”
	12:53pm Eddy in Australia: You mean they weren’t?! Dreams crushed
	12:53pm P-90: … and a summer perennial
	12:53pm clarke: this is a fun dang show!! i am about to go search for some petrol in rural LA - heading to houston and my new apartment. stay safe all!!!
	12:53pm Frank In Queens: YES!
	12:54pm Bootsie: OH I love this one!
	12:54pm Frank In Queens: Alight clarke. Safe travels and good luck in your new pad!
	12:55pm Joe B: yes, it's not a great beach day but -- a rainy day at the shore beats a sunny day at work!
	12:55pm clarke: danke - all goes well ya'll'l be there nex'week!
	12:55pm Eddy in Australia: Stay safe, Clarke. Till next time
	12:56pm clarke: u too!!
	12:56pm ?: EFD the only dj left standing ? every time I listen he's on lol NO problem with it, just time warpy
	12:56pm Will the Sound Guy: Thank you Evan, really had a blast with your "#2 hits" totally awesome!

	11:23am Asheville Jon: sorry for your loss LastWhiteRhino
	11:23am Will the Sound Guy: It's good for the set tho. The album title lengths.
	11:25am DJ Guin: there should be a statue erected in honor of Charlie Watts putting up with Mick.
	11:25am Will the Sound Guy: Sorry for your loss LWR
	11:28am Marie: Hey Evan. U r laying it down this morning--I'm so glad I tuned in!
	11:30am LastWhiteRhino: Thanks Will and everyone else. Much appreciated.
	11:31am clarke: howdy from St. Francisville, LA = made it out of new orleans LATE last night - headed west.
	11:31am modern blaze: Panic in the Needle Park (1972)
	11:32am Artie: "Between The Buttons" is apparently a term meaning "undecided".
	11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...A Jagger-Richards-Wood-McCartney-Starr fantasy is already being bandied aboot... Less nonsensical than our Whotles fantasies, perhaps...
	11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Artie - never knew. Makes sense...
	11:34am modern blaze: funky guitars a least what Rolling Stones wanted!
	11:34am Artie: I'll admit that I'm quite worried about New Orleans. Listened to WWOZ all morning, and looking at the NHC forecast.
	11:34am Frank In Queens: Hey clarke, I was thinking about you amidst all these reports of the hurricane. Glad you got to safety.
	11:35am DonJuanTijuana: AWESOME!!! Super Treats to get more EFD today!!
	11:36am clarke: well - i am SAFER not completey there yet - staying in this awesome 30's motor court and will leave for westward later tonite
	11:36am Will the Sound Guy: I'm diggin the vibe Evan!
	11:36am efd: stay safe, @clarke. @LastWhiteRhino belatedly joining in with condolences for the loss of your buddy. It's one of the hardest things to go through.
	11:37am clarke: trying to close out my apartment whilst mourning charlie - no fun
	11:37am Joe B: stay safe clarke!
	11:37am clarke: danke all!!!
	11:37am Hughie Considine: A friend swore that Mick sings "everyone in Jamaica/out fuckin' in the sun"
	11:37am efd: this song isn't anywhere close to a favorite RS song but this beat is unassailable.
	11:38am modern blaze: Lee Perry vibe here!
	11:39am marygidge: #2 hits. lol.
	11:39am efd: you may wonder, "EFD, are you playing a 7+ minute song just because of one fill" and the answer just might be yes
	11:40am Nate K: I think this will be the very first time my kid has heard this song.
	11:40am Sonny Rickles: Jimmy Miller played drums on this one
	11:40am Figgsrock: I hate to say this, but that’s Jimmy Miller doing that fill, EFD
	11:40am efd: oh FFS! That's what happens when you send a boy to do a man's job.
	11:41am Hoboken Jack: I got what i want -- EFD!!
	11:41am Joe B: doris troy (of just one look fame) singing here
	11:42am Figgsrock: Well, Charlie played that fill many many times live, so he pretty much owned it.
	11:42am Will the Sound Guy: Charlie was definitely an un-failable drummer... Never hats and snare on the same beat. Simplistic, swinging, and beautiful... Never wanted a solo. The flashiness is only in the perfect execution on the feel. As he rolled along, he was the stable rock that supported the Stones in their 50+ year campaign.
	11:42am modern blaze: prescriptions fears
	11:42am ?: As others have said, Charlie Watts doesn't play drums on Can't Always Get What You Want Great set though!
	11:43am Hoboken Jack: Belated r.i.p. Jimmy Miller
	11:43am Dennis Diken: Hey Evan & all! even though Jimmy Miller drums on “YCAGWYW” it sure sounds like Charlie- and it’s a testament to his lack of ego. I think the story is that Charlie couldn’t get the feel Miller was after so after he demonstrated it to Watts he simply let Jimmy play on the track!
	11:45am Dennis Diken: I think Jimmy Miller drums on “Happy” too. And Kenny Jones on “It’s Only Rock’n’Roll”
	11:45am Hoboken Jack: Hi Joe, Dennis, Frank, Spodi, Frank, Medson Man, everybody
	11:46am Joe B: for future reference, Miller also is on drums for Happy
	11:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx Mr. D. That does speak to Charlie's character.
	11:46am Frank In Queens: Hi Jack!
	11:47am gf2002: I just watched an interview last night with Al Kooper, where he describes how that session came about, and which song he took the piano riff from: Etta James covering "I Got You Babe". And the french horn was not Al Kooper himself playing it despite common knowledge.
	11:47am Dennis Diken: Yo Jack!
	11:47am Bootsie: Evan you could _totally_ make it up to us by playing Monkey Man ;-)
	11:47am pasquale denegri: Ahoy, Evan- Only discovered 1 day ago what others have confirmed re percussionist on YCAGWYW, to ur dismay. Thank you for your work; carry on.
	11:47am Bootsie: That story illustrates Charlie's demeanor so well.
	11:48am Ciggy: I 2nd that Bootsie ~ Monkey Man
	11:48am Slaboch: @Joe B here's hoping that you, TOPT and Cheryl don't get lost in Central Park at the YLT show next week and become 'The Worriers' again! Wish we could be there.
	11:49am Figgsrock: Now I have to ask, what song do you hate on Black and Blue EFD? Was it a single?
	11:49am Bootsie: @Ciggy it's my fave Stones!
	11:49am Paul: Is Cherry Oh Baby your least favorite Stones song?
	11:49am Joe B: @slaboch - damn, was hoping you were coming in for it!
	11:50am gf2002: "My Obsession" is the Stones session in LA where Brian Wilson was there as their guest, some potent joints were passed around the studio, and Brian declared "My Obsession" the greatest song he had ever heard.
	11:50am Slaboch: @JoeB Working at Woodsist later in the month, so gonna catch em' then. Miss y'all!
	11:50am Joe B: same - hope to see you!
	11:51am BennettCap: Let me guess. Your least favorite Stones song is Hey Negrita.
	11:51am Joe B: black and blue - crazy mama?
	11:51am Slaboch: @JoeB - Oh awesome! I'll be there all weekend working with Bridget St. John and Gunn. See ya soon!
	11:53am Figgsrock: Also, I’m am very excited that there’s a new Connells album on the horizon. The two songs they put out so far are very strong.
	11:54am Hoboken Jack: So awesome to hear new Connells!
	11:54am Joe B: wow, new connells
	11:57am Erella: I love this show. Thank you Evan
	11:57am efd: yeah, I was planning to lead off a set with that Connells song so I could properly introduce it but I got caught short
	11:58am spodiodi: that was a great one! hi, Jack!
	11:58am Birdman: Hope y’all are having a glorious weekend so far.
	11:58am Ciggy: I'm getting that Michael Shelley vibe coming through the airwaves!
	11:59am Will the Sound Guy: I should be getting this album any minute in the mail
	12:05pm clarke: The Bangle pronounced it Cane
	12:05pm LastWhiteRhino: @Evan F D: Thanks.
	12:06pm clarke: The Bangle = vicki peterson
	12:08pm slocker: Got foiled by the cloud!
	12:08pm Hoboken Jack: Connells, sans Holsapple, will be at Brooklyn Bowl 9/29.
	12:10pm gf2002: Nice to hear a track from the JEM Brian Wilson album!
	12:10pm gf2002: And the Beach Boys' "Feel Flows" box set finally came out yesterday! Amazing.
	12:12pm Joe B: the inadvertent charlie watts tribute - gett off of my icloud
	12:12pm zivilars: These fill-ins are my rare chance to listen to EFD live ... Love it, thanks for the show!
	12:12pm noisejoke: DUDE!!! Swinging Madisons???? DEEEEP!!!
	12:13pm Bootsie: Whoa I really like this! Never heard it before...
	12:14pm efd: lol @Joe B! btw the song I can't stand on Black And Blue is "Fool To Cry."
	12:15pm B R M: great show EFD
	12:15pm noisejoke: Madisons were 79/80 era Max's Kristian Hoffman jam.
	12:16pm Asheville Jon: social media airhorn is a good fill in sound
	12:16pm dave wuz here: full compliance with the truth in broadcasting act
	12:17pm clarke: love Fool To Cry = esp charlie's drum parts
	12:17pm Artie: Good Mwww.kristianhoffman.com... first-hand piece here:
	12:18pm Frank In Queens: One of the better tunes off this Cub Scout Bowling Pins album.
	12:18pm clarke: i like what i have heard, but haven't given it enough of a full listen, yet. been a little busy.
	12:19pm Will the Sound Guy: You're laying in down efd... No need to worry
	12:19pm Frank In Queens: Clarke, in my opinion, it can wait. It's not all that great. A bit disappointing coming off that prior EP.
	12:20pm Joe B: loving this orange peels album. band I've been listening to for 25 years still blows me away
	12:20pm clarke: have you listen to It IS Them in entirety, frank? i haven't
	12:21pm W Trenton Vinnie: i dunno how djs prepare for a Saturday morning, a tall order, on the receiving end, tuning in to an unexpected efd show is gold
	12:21pm clarke: -listened
	12:21pm Frank In Queens: clarke, not only have I not listened to any of it yet, I haven't even pre-ordered it! Usually I pull the trigger as soon as a new Bob album is announced.
	12:22pm clarke: right-O
	12:23pm clarke: i like the one song i heard = High In The Rain - thumbs UP
	12:26pm Frank In Queens: I'm feeling a bit Bob-burnt at the moment. Maybe the show on the 17th will kick my ass back in gear. That is, if I even wind up going. I'm on the fence due to Delta and all that nonsense...
	12:26pm DG: Dennis & others: In addition to "Happy", Miller plays in place of Watts on "Shine a Light" too (if you believe Wiki.). And "It's Only R&R" is based on a track that Jagger & Richards did w/Ron Wood (not yet in the band), Willie Weeks, K. Jones & Bowie (on bkg. vocals, although kinda hard to hear).
	12:27pm clarke: i understand, frank - i am not sure his vocals are getting 'full attention' these days - but the songs are there.
	12:27pm DG: If you're looking for more Watts deep cuts, he's on TWO songs on the Townshend/Lane "Rough Mix" collaboration, inc. "My Baby Gives It Away" ("Catmelody" by Lane is cool too).
	12:28pm Frank In Queens: Yeah, I agree. But if you believe the sycophantic portion of the fanbase, they're exactly as he intends them to be.
	12:29pm clarke: i just think that he is not trying as hard to be melodic??
	12:29pm Asheville Jon: just in time for the smah!
	12:30pm medson: YES
	12:30pm Bootsie: OH yeah!
	12:31pm spodiodi: nice!
	12:31pm Asheville Jon: nice! the ticket oasis!!!!
	12:31pm Ciggy: (Un)Technical problems. Sing it EFD!
	12:32pm Frank In Queens: I think he is definitely writing a bit differently right now compared to the past. I can appreciate that, but I'm not sure I like the more obtuse/Circus Devil-ish stuff that he's been putting out lately. But to each their own.
	12:32pm B R M: I'll be at the Bob Mould show... see the winner there!
	12:32pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ticket oasis at 209-200-9368!
	12:33pm prof.fuzz: Bob Almighty!
	12:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Praise Bob
	12:33pm clarke: agree there is something 'up' - but, also it is better than most everything else out there
	12:34pm Hoboken Jack: HP Ken!
	12:35pm Will the Sound Guy: The show I was supposed to run tonight got cancelled due to a risk of rain... ☔ I get to do things around the house instead, and listen to the greatest station of all time WFMU!!!
	12:36pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Jack. Happy Saturday!
	12:37pm Jenn in the BX: Candi!
	12:37pm Eddy in Australia: I’m freshly vaccinated so I’m eligible to enter ticket giveaway but they won’t let us out of the country. Hey Evan! Hey Clarke!
	12:37pm clarke: mate!!!!!
	12:38pm Eddy in Australia: Are you safe?
	12:38pm clarke: been missing ya, Eddy!!!
	12:38pm Frank In Queens: Absolutely. And I'm most definitely going to get the new album. I've just been slightly less motivated as I've been on a like/not like streak with every album since Sweating The Plague came out.
	12:38pm clarke: not quite yet - but making my way. i stopped at a motel late in the night
	12:39pm clarke: trying to drive late at night - and find GAS
	12:40pm clarke: agree Frank!
	12:40pm Eddy in Australia: Missed your discussion about Tobin Sprout a few weeks back cos I wasn’t listening live. I once saw a joint TS/Bob Pollard exhibition in NY. Preferred Tobin’s work but couldn’t afford to buy anything!
	12:40pm clarke: although i think i like Styles a lot more than u, ha ha
	12:41pm Frank In Queens: That was a great exhibition, Eddy. I bought a set of postcard repros as I couldn't afford an original piece as I was in the same boat as you.
	12:41pm clarke: man - tobin was selling a double-album with a white cover - wish you'd'a gotten that one
	12:42pm Frank In Queens: Most people do, clarke!
	12:42pm clarke: YESSSS Bob Welch - the other OTHER bob
	12:42pm Cooh John: French Kiss is a great album.
	12:42pm clarke: you are RIGHT cooh!!!!
	12:43pm HyperDose: Bob's best album in my opinion. One hell of a jazz guitarist
	12:43pm clarke: ha ha frank!!! ; ]
	12:44pm Eddy in Australia: @Frank I regret it now, though, might have been my only chance. Spoke briefly to TS, nice guy
	12:45pm clarke: oh Tobin is a fantastic person - sorta like charlie watts in a way.
	12:47pm clarke: hey Eddy - something we had been discussing a month ago....
	12:47pm spodiodi: i haven't heard much of Edward Rogers stuff at all. thanks for playing it, EFD!
	12:48pm o boy: Hilarious that my radio reception here in Newark I can't hear 91.1 w/o static.
	12:48pm clarke: ... concerning my "top ten" : the reason why there are songs at the front of the list is that i can't figure out my favorite beatles song - and been that way for decades.
	12:49pm clarke: but, currently (and long ago) I Need You might just edge others out for childhood reasons.
	12:50pm Eddy in Australia: That’s a lifelong discussion!
	12:51pm clarke: the childhood reasons being: when i first saw Help (in the theater - new release) - i thought those guys were actually playing live out on Solsberry Plain!!
	12:51pm Joe B: YES!
	12:51pm Doug in JC: Oh no
	12:52pm Susan Canby: Love it
	12:53pm P-90: Starbreaker! Now there’s a bona fide “#2 Hit”
	12:53pm Eddy in Australia: You mean they weren’t?! Dreams crushed
	12:53pm P-90: … and a summer perennial
	12:53pm clarke: this is a fun dang show!! i am about to go search for some petrol in rural LA - heading to houston and my new apartment. stay safe all!!!
	12:53pm Frank In Queens: YES!
	12:54pm Bootsie: OH I love this one!
	12:54pm Frank In Queens: Alight clarke. Safe travels and good luck in your new pad!
	12:55pm Joe B: yes, it's not a great beach day but -- a rainy day at the shore beats a sunny day at work!
	12:55pm clarke: danke - all goes well ya'll'l be there nex'week!
	12:55pm Eddy in Australia: Stay safe, Clarke. Till next time
	12:56pm clarke: u too!!
