	♥ 10:01pm doctorjazz: Hi Kris and all on their way home!
	♥ 10:02pm Matt from New Orleans: Good evening Kris & Doc
	♥ 10:02pm Matt from New Orleans: You got all your records packed up for the weekend Kris?
	♥ 10:03pm doctorjazz: Hey, Matt!
	10:03pm Kris Holmes: Hi guys. Not yet Matt, Thursday after work & then drive them straight to Austin.
	♥ 10:07pm doctorjazz: Man, that doesn't sound like the Velvet Fog! (Torme)
	♥ 10:07pm doctorjazz: Love this Ray Charles!
	♥ 10:08pm doctorjazz: (though I do feel a bit dissed)
	♥ 10:09pm doctorjazz: I heard this by Humble Pie first, which was a great version, but Ray's is IT!
	♥ 10:10pm Matt from New Orleans: Didn’t you play another version of that recently
	10:11pm Kris Holmes: I played New Riders of the Purple Sage last week
	♥ 10:13pm doctorjazz: That's right, (missed that version, though I remember it from way back when)
	♥ 10:13pm doctorjazz: Chuck Howard's timing is a wee bit off here and there...
	♥ 10:14pm WR: Did I miss the opening mic break with explanation of why we aren't doing the alpha box?
	♥ 10:14pm doctorjazz: Great sounding party in the background, though...
	♥ 10:16pm JtotheK: hi!
	♥ 10:17pm JtotheK: Matt - I watched Three the Hard Way (finally) this week and Thumbs Up! Especially the scene with Jim Brown in the soundbooth instructing the Impressions.
	♥ 10:17pm Matt from New Orleans: Hey WR & Jason
	10:18pm Kris Holmes: No explanation WR, I just bought a couple of things from a dollar bin on the weekend
	♥ 10:20pm Matt from New Orleans: Thumbs Up from the 40s Jason?
	♥ 10:22pm JtotheK: I have a number of additional blaxploitation films to watch yet. This month also features Richard Linklater. I've seen a good number of his films - but haven't seen suburbia from the mid 90s. So hoping to check that out.
	♥ 10:24pm WR: Hi Matt and J and Doc
	♥ 10:28pm Matt from New Orleans: I saw SubUrbia as a stage play as well in NY Jason. Both were good but I think I prefer the in person version for the immediacy. Eric Bogosian wrote & directed the play and it was at Lincoln Center.
	♥ 10:28pm WR: Was barely aware of Wayne Talbert, did not know he has his own releases. Thanks for the pointer.
	10:29pm Kris Holmes: Recommended if you like Dr John
	♥ 10:31pm JtotheK: didn't know that, Matt - thanks! I enjoyed EB in 'Talk Radio' as well as more recently Uncut Gems.
	♥ 10:32pm Matt from New Orleans: I know some actors were in both versions but my memory is shot on that
	♥ 10:34pm Matt from New Orleans: Enjoy your record nerding out Kris
	10:35pm Kris Holmes: it should be fun
	♥ 10:38pm Candy-O'67: Hey Kris and all. Sounding great! Getting ready to head to NOLA tomorrow 😁
	10:39pm Kris Holmes: oh cool Candy
	♥ 10:40pm Candy-O'67: That Standells song is sooo good! I think I have it on a record Sundazed put out
	♥ 10:44pm Matt from New Orleans: Hope you have a great time here Candy
	♥ 10:44pm Matt from New Orleans: Always nice to see you here on Tuesday
	♥ 10:46pm Candy-O'67: Thx Matt! I'm sure we will. Staying with my sis and one of my uncles and his wife live there now, too. His son, my cousin, is flying in from DC, too. So, it will be nice to see them, too
	♥ 10:48pm Candy-O'67: Thx,, Matt. You, too!
	♥ 10:52pm Candy-O'67: This Ofo is killer!!
	♥ 10:54pm Matt from New Orleans: They have some albums that are good too but only got released in West Africa. One live album got reissued about 5 years ago.
	♥ 10:54pm Candy-O'67: Thx for the info, Matt
	♥ 10:56pm Matt from New Orleans: Back to Os. Took a few for me to notice.
	10:58pm Kris Holmes: Sneaking in the Ohio Untouchables since they changed their name!
	♥ 10:59pm Matt from New Orleans: Not gonna be here next week Kris. Going to see Toro y Moi.
	11:00pm Kris Holmes: ah, you'll be missed but enjoy it
	♥ 11:01pm Matt from New Orleans: You should check out the new album Kris. You might enjoy it. Definitely got psychedelic rock & funk and influences in abundance.
	♥ 11:01pm Candy-O'67: Have a good time, Matt
	♥ 11:06pm Matt from New Orleans: Thanks Kris & Candy
	♥ 11:06pm JtotheK: stepping away from the keyboard -- cheers everyone!
	♥ 11:06pm Candy-O'67: I'll check them out Matt. New to me
	♥ 11:06pm Matt from New Orleans: Night Jason
	♥ 11:08pm Matt from New Orleans: I’m definitely hit or miss with that band. Liked some of the earlier stuff and less so with subsequent stuff but was enjoying the singles off the new one and dug the album since it came out.
	♥ 11:08pm Candy-O'67: Night, Jason!
	♥ 11:11pm Matt from New Orleans: I’m not complaining about the three songs but the filing does not make it easy to find all the relevant 45s easily
	11:12pm Kris Holmes: you aren't wrong Matt
	♥ 11:17pm Matt from New Orleans: This band broke up? Haven’t seen anything from then in a long time
	11:19pm Kris Holmes: yeah a while ago
	♥ 11:19pm Matt from New Orleans: The trumpet player put out an album two years ago that definitely doesn’t have this retro sound
	♥ 11:20pm Matt from New Orleans: Definitely not a sound that you would probably enjoy
	♥ 11:21pm Matt from New Orleans: I dug the album though
	♥ 11:28pm doctorjazz: Been listening, had to take care of some work at the same time, great sounds!
	♥ 11:30pm WR: Thank you for the tunes Kris. I look forward to hearing record show tales next week. Laters all.
	11:33pm Scobot: This Ordells tune is luscious.
	♥ 11:40pm Matt from New Orleans: Thanks Kris. Gonna put the phone down. Have a great night all.
	♥ 11:41pm doctorjazz: Same here, Thanks Kris! 'night all!
	11:43pm Kris Holmes: night guys
	♥ 11:48pm Candy-O'67: Night, guys!
	♥ 11:49pm WR: current Finnish singer. would not have guessed.
