Listener comments!
9:03am : Good morning, Bob and all. Looking forward to some music sunshine to brighten up this dreary Saturday in the NYC metro area. Procol Harum is a good start.9:04am : Good morning!9:06am : Robin Trower on Gittar?9:07am : Goog morning Bob and my FMU family.Nothing better then great Sax in the morning. Groovy groove here in beautiful Mays Landing, NJ, USA9:09am : Yep RRN *A Salty Dog" was Robin Trower playing ,, I was not sure myself at first ... -- > bit.ly...9:09am : Mornin' all! Yep Trower on guitar.9:12am : WOLF - the 1st PunkRawk.
...Well?...9:14am : 2 early 4 this🥁 9:15am : Mornin' Mr. B and all. I think the only Harum Trower isn't on is A Whiter Shade of Pale. I may be wrong about that though.9:16am : I like the surfing tuba9:17am : Hey Bob play some Bowie9:17am : Sounds a bit like a Balkan brass band.9:18am : ... klezma surf ,,🥁 9:19am : Moseley!!9:20am : The Monkey Speaks His Mind. Now that's a song.9:28am : Loved hearing "The Devil Came From Kansas" kick off the show.9:33am : Hey Bob and FOB! Love Procol Harum. Thanks for the great Saturday show.9:38am : The 'Love Is the Song We Sing' box (more like a beautiful high school yearbook design...) actually makes the comparison & contrast between the big in-town SF Psych acts & the neighboring Bay Area town Garage (ProtoPunk) acts - concluding it really is a legless distinction...9:53am : Always wanted to like Let's Active more than I ultimately did. Might have been the too bright reverb coating everything, or perhaps I reacted against Mitch's vocals and/or lyrics, never certain. Very glad to see Mitch in the Big Star doc, though.10:00am : That sounded so much like Techno-Animal in the intro...10:06am : Sound Exchange, Rt 23! It's still there10:11am : Let's Active was one of my favorite, under-rated bands in the 80's that I would play when I was a college dj.10:18am : Distinctive Greg Lake tune !10:35am : Vogels in Elizabeth10:35am : Vincent "Brown Bunny" Gallo10:37am : Oh the saturday joy!10:38am : You need to hear Down in My Heart by The Housemartins (12" single)10:39am : Great show!!!10:50am : "It was when I found out I could make mistakes that I knew I was on to something" - OC🥁 10:51am : You're brightening a cloud morning in Maryland. Bob. Thanks for the "Ballad of the Sad Young Men." Rickie Lee Jones (on Pop Pop) turned me on to that one.10:55am : Is this the worse song ever?10:57am : Great Playboys track!12:34pm : Super-duper show. :>]
