Listener comments!
	♥ 7:01pm newton: if you get acid on your jazz hands you can just lick it off like cake frosting!
	🦇 ♥ 7:01pm hunterfelt: ↳ Song: "Siamese Twins" by "The Cure" I was wondering if we were still going to get a Cure song tonight! Hi Julie, birds and all.
	🦇 ♥ 7:01pm Julie: hi newton, hi hunterfelt!
	🦇 ♥ 7:03pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Siamese Twins" by "The Cure" Speaking of acid I've heard this album was UI...
	🦇 ♥ 7:04pm Yvang: Hi Julie and acid dark souls!
	🦇 ♥ 7:04pm Dan S: Hey Julie, fellow Dark Souls, and any other AJH listeners happening to tune in! I'm a fan of both shows.
	🦇 ♥ 7:04pm Julie: hiya Yvang! Hi Dan S!
	♥ 7:06pm adamdoesit: Hi DJ Julie and Frightday night battalion!
	🦇 ♥ 7:06pm Julie: hiya adamdoesit!
	🦇 ♥ 7:07pm WR: Hi Julie and folks.
	🦇 ♥ 7:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: Mercury out of retrograde and there's suddenly a plethora of Julie fill-ins. Coincidence? I think not!
	🦇 ♥ 7:07pm Julie: hi WR! hi Ken!
	🦇 ♥ 7:08pm Yvang: Nice segue...I am starting to notice them .
	7:09pm Cronbat: Hi, Julie & all those who soldier through the dark night!
	🦇 ♥ 7:10pm Julie: hi Cronbat!
	🦇 ♥ 7:12pm Julie: english postpunk emo male hat trick
	🦇 ♥ 7:16pm hunterfelt: ↳ Julie @7:12 I was about to say there's a definite tone being set here early on haha
	🦇 ♥ 7:17pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Passover" by "Joy Division" Technically, Passover doesn't start until tomorrow night. Also, I doubt that anyone in Joy Division was Jewish. But, whatever, Happy Passover to all listening! :-)
	🦇 ♥ 7:18pm Julie: ↳ Dan S @7:17 I picked that before I even realized Passover started this weekend...it's a calmer song of theirs
	♥ 7:18pm newton: but B&H was closed today!
	🦇 ♥ 7:19pm Dan S: ↳ Julie @7:18 OK, a good song needs no holiday reason to be played.
	🦇 ♥ 7:21pm Julie: I could've played Sound of Music to poke fun at the show tune thing
	🦇 ♥ 7:22pm Dan S: ↳ newton @7:18 Hmm. They would be strict Sabbath observers, and the Sabbath starts on Fridays at sundown. I guess for that reason plus Passover coming up, they decided to close today. But that's just the guess of one extremely unobservant Jew, me.
	🦇 ♥ 7:23pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Things Behind the Sun" by "Nick Drake" A song that always sends chills along my spine. So good.
	🦇 ♥ 7:23pm Julie: ↳ Song: "Things Behind the Sun" by "Nick Drake" related consequence.net...
	♥ 7:24pm newton: ↳ Dan S @7:22 I dont calibrate the calendars, all i know is as soon as they said they had ektachrome back in stock they were closed for a week
	🦇 ♥ 7:25pm hunterfelt: ↳ Julie @7:23 I really thought that they had exhausted all of the available Nick Drake recordings, like how Syd Barrett's vault has long been emptied.
	🦇 ♥ 7:25pm Dan S: ↳ Julie @7:21 But to stay true to the spirit of AJH, you need to find a very deep cut from that show or an off-beat cover of something from that musical.
	🦇 ♥ 7:25pm Julie: ↳ hunterfelt @7:25 unfortunately it doesn't seem to be any "new" songs just more demos
	🦇 ♥ 7:26pm hunterfelt: ↳ Julie @7:25 Drats. I'll still end up listening though...
	🦇 ♥ 7:26pm Julie: ↳ Dan S @7:25 that would be bronwyn's territory. playing the wrong sound of music is more in keeping with mine
	🦇 ♥ 7:26pm Julie: ↳ Julie @7:25 SAME
	♥ 7:27pm newton: ↳ Dan S @7:25 ugh, made me imagine the alternate ending...
	🦇 ♥ 7:28pm Julie: ↳ hunterfelt @7:26 actually there's a couple titles I don't recognize, they might be on one of the comps though
	♥ 7:29pm newton: like songs from the play that were cut in the movie, like There's no way to stop it...
	🦇 ♥ 7:33pm Dan S: I was in my 6th-grade production of "The Sound of Music." I was the male lead. Yes, I was Captain Von Trapp. Both my singing and acting careers went downhill from there. :-)
	♥ 7:34pm newton: ↳ Dan S @7:33 ouch. I was Rolf
	🦇 ♥ 7:35pm Dan S: ↳ Dan S @7:33 I still remember one song from the play that didn't make it into the movie, called "How Can Love Survive." Or something like that.
	♥ 7:35pm newton: ↳ newton @7:34 but not 6th grade,...theatre camp
	🦇 ♥ 7:36pm Dan S: ↳ newton @7:35 You got further along in your theatrical career than I did. :-)
	♥ 7:37pm newton: ↳ Dan S @7:36 there is still time Dan!
	🦇 ♥ 7:38pm Dan S: The birdies may be wondering why you're on at this hour, Julie. :-)
	🦇 ♥ 7:39pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "The Best Way To Travel (additional vocal mix)" by... I love this song and the whole album. My favorite Moody Blues effort.
	🦇 ♥ 7:39pm hunterfelt: ↳ Song: "The Best Way To Travel (additional vocal mix)" by... We're hitting all the Julie favorites here. I'm guessing Elton is going to be in Hour 2.
	♥ 7:39pm ClayBeFree: Hi Julie and Fine Peoples and Bird I Can't Remember the Name Of
	🦇 ♥ 7:39pm Dan S: ↳ newton @7:37 What little singing voice I had is shot.
	🦇 ♥ 7:41pm Julie: hi ClayBeeFree!
	♥ 7:42pm newton: this is Camel ott
	🦇 ♥ 7:44pm hunterfelt: ↳ Song: "Follow Me" by "Blondie" R.I.P. Clem Burke. I'll be honest, I think I've only given this album a single spin.
	🦇 ♥ 7:45pm Dan S: ↳ newton @7:42 Camel as in the English progressive rock band from Guildford, Surrey, formed in October 1971?
	♥ 7:46pm newton: no, the musical with a typo
	♥ 7:48pm newton: ↳ newton @7:46 I very often get the space bar in the wrong place
	🦇 ♥ 7:48pm Julie: ↳ hunterfelt @7:44 it's different but it is SO good
	🦇 ♥ 7:48pm Julie: ↳ Dan S @7:45 I haven't played Camel in AGES
	7:51pm Dean: I last played Camel...YESTERDAY. A buddy tipped me off to this Royal Albert Hall gig from 2018: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLxE43bWhlg&list=PLr-xWUBtj3-UjF_G0XDbq8yN37lLIO6qH&index=21 It's actually a nice latter day performance. I saw them at Hollywood's Roxy, twice, once the original line-up, then the second with the sublime Richard Sinclair.
	🦇 ♥ 7:52pm Dan S: ↳ Julie @7:48 Me neither. A friend of mine had an album or two by them back in the early 70s, so I remembered the band name. However, I can't remember what they sounded like. Is it worth looking up their music sometime?
	🦇 ♥ 7:53pm Julie: Hi Dean!
	7:53pm Dean: At the risk of being trite, I'll state that Camel is a seminal British progressive rock band. Well worth investigating. I have a big fat box set of early CDs and shows, outtakes, etc.
	🦇 ♥ 7:53pm Julie: ↳ Dan S @7:52 yes I think so though the albums I was into were less proggy, Breathless and Single Factor. I just happened to get those first. Nude is good too
	🦇 ♥ 7:54pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "The Flow of our Spirit" by "Black Tape for a Blue... That album cover is very dark indeed and matches the music.
	🦇 ♥ 7:54pm Julie: ↳ Dean @7:53 they are not exactly a household name here, but maybe in UK?
	🦇 ♥ 7:54pm hunterfelt: ↳ Dan S @7:52 They're good. Sort of the cream of the crop of the second-tier prog acts. "Mirage" is considered their best.
	🦇 ♥ 7:57pm hunterfelt: ↳ hunterfelt @7:54 Second-tier not as a value judgment, just in terms of pecking order. Camel is not quite at the Yes/ELP/King Crimson/Genesis level
	7:57pm Dean: Breathless and earlier are splendid. I don't know much of the post-Bardens stuff. As much as I revere the original line-up, I also adore Richard Sinclair. I doubt they've played venues like RAH in the US. But I wouldn't consider them second-tier. Bardens has quite the pedigree, and as the 2018 YT illustrates, Latimer still has chops.
	🦇 ♥ 7:58pm Julie: ↳ hunterfelt @7:57 I thought you meant chronologically
	7:58pm kev: Hi
	🦇 ♥ 7:59pm Julie: hi kev!
	7:59pm Dean: I have no problem relegating ELP and Crimson to a second tier of my own invention. But that's just my taste, my preferences.
	8:03pm Dean: Not to marginalize Ward and Ferguson, both great musicians whose work melded nicely with the ensemble. I'm so grateful I was able to witness that quartet.
	♥ 8:05pm TonyR: A surprise Dark Night of The Soul. The richest tasting kind!
	🦇 ♥ 8:06pm Julie: hi TonyR!
	♥ 8:07pm TonyR: Hola, J!
	♥ 8:13pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Space Hymn" by "Lothar and the Hand People" I heard this somewhere on WFMU in the last few days (cool track). Hi Julie ad streamers!
	🦇 ♥ 8:13pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Space Hymn" by "Lothar and the Hand People" I heard this song/meditation elsewhere on WFMU very recently. Daniel Blumin played it.
	🦇 ♥ 8:13pm Julie: Hi Dr Jazz!
	🦇 ♥ 8:14pm Dan S: ↳ doctorjazz @8:13 You and me both!
	🦇 ♥ 8:14pm Julie: Despite having this album I'm not sure I'd ever heard it before now
	🦇 ♥ 8:15pm Julie: MAYBE once
	🦇 ♥ 8:18pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Space Hymn" by "Lothar and the Hand People" I remember a National Lampoon routine that mentioned Lothar and the Hand People. In it Bob Dylan (not the real one) is plugging an album collection called Greatest Hits of the 1960s, or some such. It's pretty funny.
	🦇 ♥ 8:25pm hunterfelt: ↳ Dan S @8:18 I always wondered if the SNL sketch "Lothar of the Hill People" was inspired by them.
	🦇 ♥ 8:25pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun" by "Bl... I came here to say that this cover is absolutely lovely and to clicky star it but I see I had already done so at some point (no doubt on your show).
	🦇 ♥ 8:25pm Julie: ↳ hunterfelt @8:25 I'm sure it is
	🦇 ♥ 8:25pm Dan S: ↳ hunterfelt @8:25 That's one I didn't see.
	🦇 ♥ 8:26pm Julie: seems unsurprising that mike myers would be a lothar fan
	🦇 ♥ 8:26pm Julie: ↳ Rich in Washington @8:25 hiya Rich! yeah it's a big favorite for me
	🦇 ♥ 8:28pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun" by "Bl... Excellent sound for a live performance recording.
	🦇 ♥ 8:28pm hunterfelt: ↳ Julie @8:26 Yeah, considering that his brother is the definitive record geek.
	8:31pm Dean: Radio Dinner, pretty sure. Quality National Lampoon.
	🦇 ♥ 8:32pm A.J. MACHETE: Wow-wee! Forgot there was a Dark fill-in toNight. (of the Soul)
	🦇 ♥ 8:33pm Rich in Washington: Sure! Why not?
	🦇 ♥ 8:34pm hunterfelt: ↳ Song: "I Need You To Turn To" by "Elton John" As foretold
	🦇 ♥ 8:34pm Dan S: ↳ Rich in Washington @8:33 A bit of ambiguity there. Your name, or financial status? :-)
	🦇 ♥ 8:34pm Julie: hiya AJ!
	🦇 ♥ 8:35pm Julie: ↳ Rich in Washington @8:33 I THOUGHT so but then I second guessed myself
	🦇 ♥ 8:43pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Julie @8:34 Just so happens that solo mon is doing a fill-in tomorrow. And as I might've mentioned when Primal Ice Cream was a regular show, I kinda dug listening to both yours and their shows simultaneously. Will do tomorrow, since I missed most of tonight.
	🦇 ♥ 8:43pm hunterfelt: ↳ Song: "Is This Love" by "12090 A,D,. Featuring Anna Copa... Please let this be a cover... YES
	🦇 ♥ 8:43pm Aitch: Hey Julie, just noticed you were on!
	🦇 ♥ 8:44pm Julie: hiya Aitch!
	🦇 ♥ 8:44pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Song: "Is This Love" by "12090 A,D,. Featuring Anna Copa... Here I go again, on my own.
	🦇 ♥ 8:46pm hunterfelt: ↳ A.J. MACHETE @8:44 I like serious covers of pop-metal hits and also unserious pop -metal covers of unexpected songs. Like the Saxon version of "Ride Like The Wind."
	8:47pm miles of middle texas: Hey Julie ! Nice show! I'll be catching up in the archives
	🦇 ♥ 8:47pm Julie: hi miles!
	🦇 ♥ 8:56pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Julie! Cool to hear you on a Friday night!
	🦇 ♥ 8:56pm A Bump in Burbank: ↳ Song: "Skin & Bones" by "The Sundays" Great one! Thx Julie
	🦇 ♥ 8:56pm Julie: thanks for listening everyone! Rich is up next!
	🦇 ♥ 8:56pm Dan S: Thanks for the great music, Julie! Until next Tuesday...Perhaps between now and then, I'll listen to some music by Camel. :-)
	🦇 ♥ 8:57pm hunterfelt: Great show Julie! Yes, I think I'll be listening to "Mirage" tonight.
	🦇 ♥ 8:57pm A.J. MACHETE: Sorry I mostly missed you tonight. Good ol' Bunker will right my wrong.
	🦇 ♥ 8:58pm Yvang: Thanks Julie for the great tunes!
	🦇 ♥ 9:14pm WR: Thank you! Julie!
	🦇 ♥ 1:28pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: ↳ Song: "All I Want is You" by "Tremosphere" Thank you, Julie!
	🦇 ♥ 5:11pm Bas NL: Thanks Julie! Many clicky-stars to me!

	🦇 ♥ 7:54pm hunterfelt: ↳ Dan S @7:52 They're good. Sort of the cream of the crop of the second-tier prog acts. "Mirage" is considered their best.
	🦇 ♥ 7:57pm hunterfelt: ↳ hunterfelt @7:54 Second-tier not as a value judgment, just in terms of pecking order. Camel is not quite at the Yes/ELP/King Crimson/Genesis level
	7:57pm Dean: Breathless and earlier are splendid. I don't know much of the post-Bardens stuff. As much as I revere the original line-up, I also adore Richard Sinclair. I doubt they've played venues like RAH in the US. But I wouldn't consider them second-tier. Bardens has quite the pedigree, and as the 2018 YT illustrates, Latimer still has chops.
	🦇 ♥ 7:58pm Julie: ↳ hunterfelt @7:57 I thought you meant chronologically
	7:58pm kev: Hi
	🦇 ♥ 7:59pm Julie: hi kev!
	7:59pm Dean: I have no problem relegating ELP and Crimson to a second tier of my own invention. But that's just my taste, my preferences.
	8:03pm Dean: Not to marginalize Ward and Ferguson, both great musicians whose work melded nicely with the ensemble. I'm so grateful I was able to witness that quartet.
	♥ 8:05pm TonyR: A surprise Dark Night of The Soul. The richest tasting kind!
	🦇 ♥ 8:06pm Julie: hi TonyR!
	♥ 8:07pm TonyR: Hola, J!
	♥ 8:13pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Space Hymn" by "Lothar and the Hand People" I heard this somewhere on WFMU in the last few days (cool track). Hi Julie ad streamers!
	🦇 ♥ 8:13pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Space Hymn" by "Lothar and the Hand People" I heard this song/meditation elsewhere on WFMU very recently. Daniel Blumin played it.
	🦇 ♥ 8:13pm Julie: Hi Dr Jazz!
	🦇 ♥ 8:14pm Dan S: ↳ doctorjazz @8:13 You and me both!
	🦇 ♥ 8:14pm Julie: Despite having this album I'm not sure I'd ever heard it before now
	🦇 ♥ 8:15pm Julie: MAYBE once
	🦇 ♥ 8:18pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Space Hymn" by "Lothar and the Hand People" I remember a National Lampoon routine that mentioned Lothar and the Hand People. In it Bob Dylan (not the real one) is plugging an album collection called Greatest Hits of the 1960s, or some such. It's pretty funny.
	🦇 ♥ 8:25pm hunterfelt: ↳ Dan S @8:18 I always wondered if the SNL sketch "Lothar of the Hill People" was inspired by them.
	🦇 ♥ 8:25pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun" by "Bl... I came here to say that this cover is absolutely lovely and to clicky star it but I see I had already done so at some point (no doubt on your show).
	🦇 ♥ 8:25pm Julie: ↳ hunterfelt @8:25 I'm sure it is
	🦇 ♥ 8:25pm Dan S: ↳ hunterfelt @8:25 That's one I didn't see.
	🦇 ♥ 8:26pm Julie: seems unsurprising that mike myers would be a lothar fan
	🦇 ♥ 8:26pm Julie: ↳ Rich in Washington @8:25 hiya Rich! yeah it's a big favorite for me
	🦇 ♥ 8:28pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun" by "Bl... Excellent sound for a live performance recording.
	🦇 ♥ 8:28pm hunterfelt: ↳ Julie @8:26 Yeah, considering that his brother is the definitive record geek.
	8:31pm Dean: Radio Dinner, pretty sure. Quality National Lampoon.
	🦇 ♥ 8:32pm A.J. MACHETE: Wow-wee! Forgot there was a Dark fill-in toNight. (of the Soul)
	🦇 ♥ 8:33pm Rich in Washington: Sure! Why not?
	🦇 ♥ 8:34pm hunterfelt: ↳ Song: "I Need You To Turn To" by "Elton John" As foretold
	🦇 ♥ 8:34pm Dan S: ↳ Rich in Washington @8:33 A bit of ambiguity there. Your name, or financial status? :-)
	🦇 ♥ 8:34pm Julie: hiya AJ!
	🦇 ♥ 8:35pm Julie: ↳ Rich in Washington @8:33 I THOUGHT so but then I second guessed myself
	🦇 ♥ 8:43pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Julie @8:34 Just so happens that solo mon is doing a fill-in tomorrow. And as I might've mentioned when Primal Ice Cream was a regular show, I kinda dug listening to both yours and their shows simultaneously. Will do tomorrow, since I missed most of tonight.
	🦇 ♥ 8:43pm hunterfelt: ↳ Song: "Is This Love" by "12090 A,D,. Featuring Anna Copa... Please let this be a cover... YES
	🦇 ♥ 8:43pm Aitch: Hey Julie, just noticed you were on!
	🦇 ♥ 8:44pm Julie: hiya Aitch!
	🦇 ♥ 8:44pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Song: "Is This Love" by "12090 A,D,. Featuring Anna Copa... Here I go again, on my own.
	🦇 ♥ 8:46pm hunterfelt: ↳ A.J. MACHETE @8:44 I like serious covers of pop-metal hits and also unserious pop -metal covers of unexpected songs. Like the Saxon version of "Ride Like The Wind."
	8:47pm miles of middle texas: Hey Julie ! Nice show! I'll be catching up in the archives
	🦇 ♥ 8:47pm Julie: hi miles!
	🦇 ♥ 8:56pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Julie! Cool to hear you on a Friday night!
	🦇 ♥ 8:56pm A Bump in Burbank: ↳ Song: "Skin & Bones" by "The Sundays" Great one! Thx Julie
	🦇 ♥ 8:56pm Julie: thanks for listening everyone! Rich is up next!
	🦇 ♥ 8:56pm Dan S: Thanks for the great music, Julie! Until next Tuesday...Perhaps between now and then, I'll listen to some music by Camel. :-)
	🦇 ♥ 8:57pm hunterfelt: Great show Julie! Yes, I think I'll be listening to "Mirage" tonight.
	🦇 ♥ 8:57pm A.J. MACHETE: Sorry I mostly missed you tonight. Good ol' Bunker will right my wrong.
	🦇 ♥ 8:58pm Yvang: Thanks Julie for the great tunes!
	🦇 ♥ 9:14pm WR: Thank you! Julie!
	🦇 ♥ 1:28pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: ↳ Song: "All I Want is You" by "Tremosphere" Thank you, Julie!
