	11:20am sydnius: ↳ Roberto @11:20 the gangster of love is your cat?
	11:20am Roberto: ↳ Gina Bacon @11:19 Sorry, you probably get that a lot :P
	11:21am doctorjazz: MY first year of college as well (Brooklyn College).
	11:21am Roberto: ↳ sydnius @11:20 Oui. L'autre chat.
	11:22am doctorjazz: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:19 I saw-tried to open the link, but it didn't work. Thanks anyway!
	11:22am Gerry from Miami: BOB, the piano roll was some kind of invention! Ravel plays Ravel!
	11:23am Bob Brainen: There are wonderful pictures of Ravels with his cats. www.alamy.com...
	11:23am doctorjazz: Big concert weekend here-Iris DeMent tonight, then Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce tomorrow. (Will report for work on Monday a very tired dude...)
	11:24am Bob Brainen: Gerry from Miami, it was a marvel!
	11:25am Roberto: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:23 Fantastique! That's a rough 54 tho, yikes.
	11:25am dan: ↳ doctorjazz @11:23 There's still tickets available for Tommy Emmanuel.
	11:25am sydnius: ↳ Roberto @11:25 un… ravelled?
	11:26am Roberto: ↳ sydnius @11:25 So it would seem.
	11:29am SecretSquirrel: Hi Bob ‘n’ all! Love me some Debussy
	11:29am Roberto: ↳ doctorjazz @11:23 Oh wow, my wife's going to see Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce tomorrow. I'll have her say hello.
	11:30am Gerry from Miami: WOW! I am impressed by these piano rolls. Didn't know they could be made to sound this good!
	11:30am Bob Brainen: SecretSquirrel!
	11:31am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ SecretSquirrel @11:29 Hi SecretSquirrel.
	11:31am doctorjazz: ↳ dan @11:25 Hmmm, I see he's at Town Hall (where you're seeing him, no?) next Saturday, and in New Brunswick the day before (which would actually be easier for me than heading to NYC once again, thogh I do it...). Hmmmmm...
	11:32am doctorjazz: ↳ Roberto @11:29 WE can wave across the staduim! (I assume you didn't want to go...)
	11:32am Gina Bacon: This is all really nice. Thanks, Bob.
	11:32am Roberto: ↳ doctorjazz @11:32 Yeah not my bag, she's going with a friend.
	11:32am doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Every Time We Say Goodbye" by "John Coltrane" Loverly!
	🥁 11:32am duke: Great first set!!
	11:33am SecretSquirrel: Hey Andrew!
	11:34am doctorjazz: I didn't discover Trane or jazz my first year of college-didn't get into jazz until my senior year. (took a jazz history class given by bassist Chuck Israels, who played with Bill Evans, that did it for me...)
	11:35am dan: ↳ doctorjazz @11:31 Town Hall for me. Been wanting to see him for awhile now, timed in well for my dad's birthday.
	11:37am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @11:34 That`s some schooling!
	11:37am Jeff: Hey, I’m late, and I can’t stay. All the best to Bob + the rest of you.
	🥁 11:41am duke: @Bob Learning about Coltrane and Horace Silver was worth the cost of tuition.
	🥁 11:41am Brian in UK: Hello Bob, similar for me with John Coltrane. First album was Coltrane Jazz. From the first track 'Little Old Lady' I knew that we would be aquainted for the longest time.
	🥁 11:44am (Mr) Bill: The most vivid memory of my first week of college at UB is of a rally in support of the Attica resisters. Bobby Seale spoke. I drank a lot of beer and threw up.
	11:44am SecretSquirrel: Maybe you might play “Coming Together” by Frederic Rzewski (pron. ZHEV-Skee)? IMO the greatest-ever Attica-themed piece
	11:44am sydnius: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:44 A∏A?
	11:45am doctorjazz: ↳ dan @11:35 Can't make the Town Hall show (older actor/comedian daughter RebeccaJazz has a stand up show in NYC). Might spring for resale tix in New Brunswick for Friday, though, some good ones available. Thanks for the reminder!
	11:46am Bob Brainen: Jeff!
	11:47am doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Crayon Angels" by "Judee Sill" Still need to discover Sill...
	11:48am Bob Brainen: Brian in U.K.! Nice!
	11:48am Bob Brainen: ↳ SecretSquirrel @11:44 I do not know it but will look out for it.
	11:49am dan: ↳ Song: "I Go To Sleep [demo]" by "Kinks" For a second, I thought this was a Strata East Recording.
	11:50am adamdoesit: Hi Bob and brains!
	11:51am Bob Brainen: adamdoesit!
	🥁 11:51am (Mr) Bill: ↳ sydnius @11:44 I’m halt of mind today. Clarify, please.
	11:51am PT: Hello BB and all travelers! I Go To Sleep: hey, what’s a week late between pals? (Sorry for the inside joke: all may become clear during Bob’s next break.)
	11:52am Bob Brainen: PT!
	🥁 11:52am Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Love Is" by "Blossom Toes" Giorgio Gomelsky's handywork?
	11:52am StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "Love Is" by "Blossom Toes" Greetings, Bob, happy forenoon to ye. A balm for the ears/mind
	11:53am Bob Brainen: StringOFperils!
	11:53am Soule: Yo, Bob and Brainies!
	11:54am Gerry from Miami: I ran right out and bought the Judee Sill album back in 1971. "Jesus Was a Crossmaker" and "Lady-O"(covered by the Turtles) were my fave tunes. Didn't know when I bought the LP that Graham Nash and David Crosby were playing on it. Sadly, Ms. Sill passed away in 1979.
	11:54am Bob Brainen: Soule!
	11:56am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Soule @11:53 Hiya Soule!
	11:56am sydnius: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:51 that was my drinkin' frat, wondered if they had a chapter where you were
	11:57am sydnius: not a member, but $5, chug
	12:00pm gene sculatti: Hey, Bob!
	12:01pm adamdoesit: Hey, I can see replies on the iOS app now!
	12:01pm Dean: I'm going to guess that this playlist does not include discoveries of autumn '71. If it does, just wow!
	12:02pm Dean: playlist=set, I mean
	12:03pm Bob Brainen: gene sculatti of luxuriamusic.com!
	12:04pm gene sculatti: Si!
	12:05pm Bob Brainen: Dean! Nah, just 1st set. If others were discovered then, it's incidental.
	12:06pm Dean: (Discovered a '76 release in '71? That's noteworthy.)
	🥁 12:06pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ sydnius @11:56 Ah. UB didn’t have many frats in ‘71, so probably not. I knew Greek letters only from math classes.
	🥁 12:09pm Brian in UK: Tinariwen calling from two rooms away.
	12:10pm doctorjazz: ↳ Dean @12:06 Would require a crystal ball or a time machine, would certainly be impressive!
	12:20pm Jeff: While I’m still around: I, too, began my “higher” education in the fall of 1971. I was upstate at SUNY New Paltz, and it was a “trip” for a barely 17 year old kid straight outta Brooklyn. I was already into some blues and jazz (that’s my roots). But, Allman Brothers, The Band, Dead, Airplane were all in constant rotation in that part of the dorm where the guys were. When you walked to where the girls resided, you heard Joni, Laura, Carole and Cat Stevens. Of course, I’m generalizing. There were plenty of exceptions and more sounds than just the aforementioned.
	12:23pm adamdoesit: Is that a metronome behind Jelly Roll?
	12:24pm Bob Brainen: ↳ adamdoesit @12:23 yes
	12:24pm doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @12:23 It must have been, these are solo recordings
	12:25pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Poor Mourner's Serenade" by "Allen Lowe & The Con... Really like pretty much anything Lowe puts out!
	12:25pm Jeff: I took a history of jazz class at SUNY New Paltz. The teacher toured with Charlie Parker behind that Bird w/strings record. I went over to SUNY Binghamton for two semesters in 1973. Got to see Duke Ellington at the women’s gym. Slam Stewart was a “fellow” at the school, and he’d have jam sessions at the dining hall. One of the jams featured Dizzy Gillespie. The other one had Clark Terry.
	12:25pm doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @12:23 Adam, you back in Brooklyn?
	12:26pm adamdoesit: Bob and doc, it never occurred to me that he might use one — and he really uses it, as part of the recording.
	12:29pm adamdoesit: doc, heading back tomorrow, with stronger legs, and sorer knees.
	12:30pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Jeff @12:25 That is awesome!
	12:30pm doctorjazz: ↳ Jeff @12:25 That's a great way to break into jazz-I had tried once, took Miles Smiles out of the library, couldn't make heads nor tails of it. The history course I took used The Smithsonial History of Classic Jazz as its text, going through it chronically made everything click for me (Chuck Israels had to leave for a short time, gigs, I presume, he had Lee Konitz come in as sub for a few classes. He put on Miles' On The Corner on the turntable, pulled out his alto, and jammed along with it for the class. It was very cool).
	12:31pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @12:30 I of course had no idea who Chuck Israels was, and a slight idea of Lee Konitz, as he was in the Smithsonian set)
	12:31pm Bob Brainen: ↳ doctorjazz @12:30 Very cool!
	12:40pm doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @12:29 Sounds like you put in a lot of miles, good for you!
	12:49pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Bob Brainen @12:31 Brian Godding!
	12:53pm Soule: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:56 Hey there, Andrew in Toronto!
	12:56pm Gerry from Miami: I mistakenly remembered Mike Harrison as the American member of the ill-fated British group, Spooky Tooth. It was actually the "Dreamweaver," Gary Wright. I had occasion to meet Mr. Wright as he lived on the Palos Verdes peninsula south of Los Angeles, near my home in San Pedro. He was an active runner and we met at several road races in the area. Very nice fellow.
	12:57pm dan: ↳ Song: "Ragtime For Eleven Instruments" by "Igor Stravinksy" Did Stravinsky invent the Pops Sound?
	1:05pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Wake Up Baby" by "Dion & The Wanderers" Sounds like it could have been a group like the Burrito's, like this late Dion!
	1:12pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Nobody There At All [single version]" by "Spooky ... 12 minutes, and i've yet to comment, seems like a good time to do so.... don't forget spooky tooth also did an album w/ pierre henry...
	1:15pm Bob Brainen: northguineahills!
	1:20pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Scatter Me" by "TC&I" Sounded like Morning has Broken in the intro...
	1:20pm dan: ↳ Song: "Scatter Me" by "TC&I" XTC needs to do a proper farewell tour.
	🥁 1:20pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Song: "When You Die [You Take It With You]" by "Duf Davi... Love this. Revelatory.
	1:21pm adamdoesit: Bob, I remember the last (first?) time you played Scatter Me. I think was in the same physical place. It’s still moving.
	1:29pm doctorjazz: Next Saturday, in Montclair, NJ, cool jazz fest (not sure I can make it-looks good). www.montclairjazzfestival.org...
	1:34pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @1:29 That`s a decent line-up.
	🥁 1:37pm (Mr) Bill: Condolences on your loss, Bob. May Kurt’s memory be a comfort to you. you’ve done his legacy a solid by acquainting me and many others with his music.
	1:38pm Bob Brainen: ↳ (Mr) Bill @1:37 Thanks (Mr) Bill!
	1:41pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "My Old School" by "Steely Dan" One of the great solo breaks (guitar solo, cowbell, stop time), classic!
	1:43pm Bob Brainen: ↳ doctorjazz @1:41 Amen!
	1:50pm Andrew in Toronto: What a wonderful show! Thanks Bob!
	🥁 1:52pm Gina Bacon: Thank you, Bob!
	1:55pm doctorjazz: Thanks, Bob! Great weekend all!
	🥁 1:55pm (Mr) Bill: What. A. Show. Bob!
	1:56pm dan: Another great show Bob
	1:56pm adamdoesit: Thanks for the sounds, Bob.
	1:57pm Dean: Nino & April's own countdown to ecstasy.
	🥁 1:58pm wmfromD: Great show Bob! Thanks!
	🥁 2:02pm duke: Thank Bob. Great show as always

	11:20am sydnius: ↳ Roberto @11:20 the gangster of love is your cat?
	11:20am Roberto: ↳ Gina Bacon @11:19 Sorry, you probably get that a lot :P
	11:21am doctorjazz: MY first year of college as well (Brooklyn College).
	11:21am Roberto: ↳ sydnius @11:20 Oui. L'autre chat.
	11:22am doctorjazz: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:19 I saw-tried to open the link, but it didn't work. Thanks anyway!
	11:22am Gerry from Miami: BOB, the piano roll was some kind of invention! Ravel plays Ravel!
	11:23am Bob Brainen: There are wonderful pictures of Ravels with his cats. www.alamy.com...
	11:23am doctorjazz: Big concert weekend here-Iris DeMent tonight, then Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce tomorrow. (Will report for work on Monday a very tired dude...)
	11:24am Bob Brainen: Gerry from Miami, it was a marvel!
	11:25am Roberto: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:23 Fantastique! That's a rough 54 tho, yikes.
	11:25am dan: ↳ doctorjazz @11:23 There's still tickets available for Tommy Emmanuel.
	11:25am sydnius: ↳ Roberto @11:25 un… ravelled?
	11:26am Roberto: ↳ sydnius @11:25 So it would seem.
	11:29am SecretSquirrel: Hi Bob ‘n’ all! Love me some Debussy
	11:29am Roberto: ↳ doctorjazz @11:23 Oh wow, my wife's going to see Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce tomorrow. I'll have her say hello.
	11:30am Gerry from Miami: WOW! I am impressed by these piano rolls. Didn't know they could be made to sound this good!
	11:30am Bob Brainen: SecretSquirrel!
	11:31am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ SecretSquirrel @11:29 Hi SecretSquirrel.
	11:31am doctorjazz: ↳ dan @11:25 Hmmm, I see he's at Town Hall (where you're seeing him, no?) next Saturday, and in New Brunswick the day before (which would actually be easier for me than heading to NYC once again, thogh I do it...). Hmmmmm...
	11:32am doctorjazz: ↳ Roberto @11:29 WE can wave across the staduim! (I assume you didn't want to go...)
	11:32am Gina Bacon: This is all really nice. Thanks, Bob.
	11:32am Roberto: ↳ doctorjazz @11:32 Yeah not my bag, she's going with a friend.
	11:32am doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Every Time We Say Goodbye" by "John Coltrane" Loverly!
	🥁 11:32am duke: Great first set!!
	11:33am SecretSquirrel: Hey Andrew!
	11:34am doctorjazz: I didn't discover Trane or jazz my first year of college-didn't get into jazz until my senior year. (took a jazz history class given by bassist Chuck Israels, who played with Bill Evans, that did it for me...)
	11:35am dan: ↳ doctorjazz @11:31 Town Hall for me. Been wanting to see him for awhile now, timed in well for my dad's birthday.
	11:37am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @11:34 That`s some schooling!
	11:37am Jeff: Hey, I’m late, and I can’t stay. All the best to Bob + the rest of you.
	🥁 11:41am duke: @Bob Learning about Coltrane and Horace Silver was worth the cost of tuition.
	🥁 11:41am Brian in UK: Hello Bob, similar for me with John Coltrane. First album was Coltrane Jazz. From the first track 'Little Old Lady' I knew that we would be aquainted for the longest time.
	🥁 11:44am (Mr) Bill: The most vivid memory of my first week of college at UB is of a rally in support of the Attica resisters. Bobby Seale spoke. I drank a lot of beer and threw up.
	11:44am SecretSquirrel: Maybe you might play “Coming Together” by Frederic Rzewski (pron. ZHEV-Skee)? IMO the greatest-ever Attica-themed piece
	11:44am sydnius: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:44 A∏A?
	11:45am doctorjazz: ↳ dan @11:35 Can't make the Town Hall show (older actor/comedian daughter RebeccaJazz has a stand up show in NYC). Might spring for resale tix in New Brunswick for Friday, though, some good ones available. Thanks for the reminder!
	11:46am Bob Brainen: Jeff!
	11:47am doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Crayon Angels" by "Judee Sill" Still need to discover Sill...
	11:48am Bob Brainen: Brian in U.K.! Nice!
	11:48am Bob Brainen: ↳ SecretSquirrel @11:44 I do not know it but will look out for it.
	11:49am dan: ↳ Song: "I Go To Sleep [demo]" by "Kinks" For a second, I thought this was a Strata East Recording.
	11:50am adamdoesit: Hi Bob and brains!
	11:51am Bob Brainen: adamdoesit!
	🥁 11:51am (Mr) Bill: ↳ sydnius @11:44 I’m halt of mind today. Clarify, please.
	11:51am PT: Hello BB and all travelers! I Go To Sleep: hey, what’s a week late between pals? (Sorry for the inside joke: all may become clear during Bob’s next break.)
	11:52am Bob Brainen: PT!
	🥁 11:52am Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Love Is" by "Blossom Toes" Giorgio Gomelsky's handywork?
	11:52am StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "Love Is" by "Blossom Toes" Greetings, Bob, happy forenoon to ye. A balm for the ears/mind
	11:53am Bob Brainen: StringOFperils!
	11:53am Soule: Yo, Bob and Brainies!
	11:54am Gerry from Miami: I ran right out and bought the Judee Sill album back in 1971. "Jesus Was a Crossmaker" and "Lady-O"(covered by the Turtles) were my fave tunes. Didn't know when I bought the LP that Graham Nash and David Crosby were playing on it. Sadly, Ms. Sill passed away in 1979.
	11:54am Bob Brainen: Soule!
	11:56am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Soule @11:53 Hiya Soule!
	11:56am sydnius: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:51 that was my drinkin' frat, wondered if they had a chapter where you were
	11:57am sydnius: not a member, but $5, chug
	12:00pm gene sculatti: Hey, Bob!
	12:01pm adamdoesit: Hey, I can see replies on the iOS app now!
	12:01pm Dean: I'm going to guess that this playlist does not include discoveries of autumn '71. If it does, just wow!
	12:02pm Dean: playlist=set, I mean
	12:03pm Bob Brainen: gene sculatti of luxuriamusic.com!
	12:04pm gene sculatti: Si!
	12:05pm Bob Brainen: Dean! Nah, just 1st set. If others were discovered then, it's incidental.
	12:06pm Dean: (Discovered a '76 release in '71? That's noteworthy.)
	🥁 12:06pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ sydnius @11:56 Ah. UB didn’t have many frats in ‘71, so probably not. I knew Greek letters only from math classes.
	🥁 12:09pm Brian in UK: Tinariwen calling from two rooms away.
	12:10pm doctorjazz: ↳ Dean @12:06 Would require a crystal ball or a time machine, would certainly be impressive!
	12:20pm Jeff: While I’m still around: I, too, began my “higher” education in the fall of 1971. I was upstate at SUNY New Paltz, and it was a “trip” for a barely 17 year old kid straight outta Brooklyn. I was already into some blues and jazz (that’s my roots). But, Allman Brothers, The Band, Dead, Airplane were all in constant rotation in that part of the dorm where the guys were. When you walked to where the girls resided, you heard Joni, Laura, Carole and Cat Stevens. Of course, I’m generalizing. There were plenty of exceptions and more sounds than just the aforementioned.
	12:23pm adamdoesit: Is that a metronome behind Jelly Roll?
	12:24pm Bob Brainen: ↳ adamdoesit @12:23 yes
	12:24pm doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @12:23 It must have been, these are solo recordings
	12:25pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Poor Mourner's Serenade" by "Allen Lowe & The Con... Really like pretty much anything Lowe puts out!
	12:25pm Jeff: I took a history of jazz class at SUNY New Paltz. The teacher toured with Charlie Parker behind that Bird w/strings record. I went over to SUNY Binghamton for two semesters in 1973. Got to see Duke Ellington at the women’s gym. Slam Stewart was a “fellow” at the school, and he’d have jam sessions at the dining hall. One of the jams featured Dizzy Gillespie. The other one had Clark Terry.
	12:25pm doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @12:23 Adam, you back in Brooklyn?
	12:26pm adamdoesit: Bob and doc, it never occurred to me that he might use one — and he really uses it, as part of the recording.
	12:29pm adamdoesit: doc, heading back tomorrow, with stronger legs, and sorer knees.
	12:30pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Jeff @12:25 That is awesome!
	12:30pm doctorjazz: ↳ Jeff @12:25 That's a great way to break into jazz-I had tried once, took Miles Smiles out of the library, couldn't make heads nor tails of it. The history course I took used The Smithsonial History of Classic Jazz as its text, going through it chronically made everything click for me (Chuck Israels had to leave for a short time, gigs, I presume, he had Lee Konitz come in as sub for a few classes. He put on Miles' On The Corner on the turntable, pulled out his alto, and jammed along with it for the class. It was very cool).
	12:31pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @12:30 I of course had no idea who Chuck Israels was, and a slight idea of Lee Konitz, as he was in the Smithsonian set)
	12:31pm Bob Brainen: ↳ doctorjazz @12:30 Very cool!
	12:40pm doctorjazz: ↳ adamdoesit @12:29 Sounds like you put in a lot of miles, good for you!
	12:49pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Bob Brainen @12:31 Brian Godding!
	12:53pm Soule: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:56 Hey there, Andrew in Toronto!
	12:56pm Gerry from Miami: I mistakenly remembered Mike Harrison as the American member of the ill-fated British group, Spooky Tooth. It was actually the "Dreamweaver," Gary Wright. I had occasion to meet Mr. Wright as he lived on the Palos Verdes peninsula south of Los Angeles, near my home in San Pedro. He was an active runner and we met at several road races in the area. Very nice fellow.
	12:57pm dan: ↳ Song: "Ragtime For Eleven Instruments" by "Igor Stravinksy" Did Stravinsky invent the Pops Sound?
	1:05pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Wake Up Baby" by "Dion & The Wanderers" Sounds like it could have been a group like the Burrito's, like this late Dion!
	1:12pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Nobody There At All [single version]" by "Spooky ... 12 minutes, and i've yet to comment, seems like a good time to do so.... don't forget spooky tooth also did an album w/ pierre henry...
	1:15pm Bob Brainen: northguineahills!
	1:20pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Scatter Me" by "TC&I" Sounded like Morning has Broken in the intro...
	1:20pm dan: ↳ Song: "Scatter Me" by "TC&I" XTC needs to do a proper farewell tour.
	🥁 1:20pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Song: "When You Die [You Take It With You]" by "Duf Davi... Love this. Revelatory.
	1:21pm adamdoesit: Bob, I remember the last (first?) time you played Scatter Me. I think was in the same physical place. It’s still moving.
	1:29pm doctorjazz: Next Saturday, in Montclair, NJ, cool jazz fest (not sure I can make it-looks good). www.montclairjazzfestival.org...
	1:34pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ doctorjazz @1:29 That`s a decent line-up.
	🥁 1:37pm (Mr) Bill: Condolences on your loss, Bob. May Kurt’s memory be a comfort to you. you’ve done his legacy a solid by acquainting me and many others with his music.
	1:38pm Bob Brainen: ↳ (Mr) Bill @1:37 Thanks (Mr) Bill!
	1:41pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "My Old School" by "Steely Dan" One of the great solo breaks (guitar solo, cowbell, stop time), classic!
	1:43pm Bob Brainen: ↳ doctorjazz @1:41 Amen!
	1:50pm Andrew in Toronto: What a wonderful show! Thanks Bob!
	🥁 1:52pm Gina Bacon: Thank you, Bob!
	1:55pm doctorjazz: Thanks, Bob! Great weekend all!
	🥁 1:55pm (Mr) Bill: What. A. Show. Bob!
	1:56pm dan: Another great show Bob
	1:56pm adamdoesit: Thanks for the sounds, Bob.
	1:57pm Dean: Nino & April's own countdown to ecstasy.
	🥁 1:58pm wmfromD: Great show Bob! Thanks!
	🥁 2:02pm duke: Thank Bob. Great show as always
	10:18am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Thank You Always DJ BobBrainen ~
