WFMU: Tony Coulter: Playlist from January 2, 2018

Listener comments!
	12:01pm Tony Coulter: Greetings, all! Today's edition of guess-the-LP-underneath-the cassettes should be an easy one.
	12:02pm βrian: Just popped above zero F on the isthmus. That's a slight relief.
	🥁 12:02pm listener james from westwood: Good Tuesday and happy 2018, Tony and all!
	12:03pm Tony Coulter: Hey, hey, hey, Listener J and βrian! Happy 2018 to yerz too!
	12:03pm Sem: Greets, left coast Tony, from Atlantic shore-bound ears. Hey, βrian, ljfw.
	12:03pm steveo: Happy Tuesday, Tony. I'm a bad guesser but a willing listener.
	12:04pm Jeff Golick: 2018, already better. Hiya, Tony & Tonyettes.
	🥁 12:04pm Yvang: hIYA! Happy peanut butter and 2018!
	🥁 12:05pm Yvang: For the first time I know what the LP is, but I won't tell.
	12:07pm Tony Coulter: Hola hey hello, Sem, Steveo, Jeff G, & Yvang!!!!
	12:08pm Rich in Washington: Love that Wolverton art on the cover.
	12:09pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Rich! Wuz just going to say: The cassette on now is the one on the left, with the Basil Wolverton freakout fellow.
	12:09pm Rich in Washington: Basil's from my hometown Vancouver Washington. That there isn't a Lena Hyena statue on Main Street in his honor is a disgrace.
	12:10pm Tiago from Portugal: Hi Tony, Happy New Year!
	12:11pm Rich in Washington: I mean, there's a Willie Nelson mural in town, commemorating the couple of years he was a radio DJ on Vancouver radio, but no love for Basil.
	12:11pm Tony Coulter: @ Rich: Wow! Didn't know Wolverton was from Vancouver! That should make you swell with civic pride.
	12:11pm Rich in Washington: This is great. An early example of someone collecting those wonderfully trashy garage singles.
	12:11pm Tony Coulter: Greetings, Tiago!!
	🥁 12:12pm Yvang: Wolverton is great.
	12:12pm Rich in Washington: It does. Also, Monte, his son, also lives in nearby Battle Ground Washington, and he's also an illustrator, painter, sculptor. He's a syndicated editorial cartoonist.
	12:15pm Tony Coulter: This side of this tape features lots of songs about bugs. The second side has lots of Japanese stuff.
	12:18pm Tony Coulter: No guesses re today's LP jacket? Yvang was gentlemanly enough to recuse himself, but that doesn't mean everyone else should abstain.
	🥁 12:20pm listener james from westwood: This was used to good effect in Hairspray.
	12:21pm Tony Coulter: Can't help wondering how many of the tracks I'm playing today are in heavy rotation on the Ichiban stream.
	12:23pm Jeff Golick: All (I think) I recognize is a still from Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, in the middle (?).
	12:24pm Tony Coulter: Yeah, I think you could be right -- looks familiar to me too.
	🥁 12:25pm listener james from westwood: LOL, this does have all the makings of a Rex set!
	🥁 12:26pm Yvang: Not Iron Butterfly, not Talk Talk, not House of Love...
	12:26pm Tony Coulter: @ Listener James: I know, I feel like I'm turning into someone else -- maybe even a fly.
	12:28pm Sem: Duckduckgo's best guess is Valley of the Dolls.
	12:28pm steveo: i am surprised I can't find the butterfly cover via google search...
	12:29pm steveo: I found the BtVotD image though: www.moviestillsdb.com...
	12:30pm Jeff Golick: Well done, @steveo.
	12:32pm Tony Coulter: Yes, well done, Steveo. The "Butterfly Cover" LP is a common dollar bin item to this day, despite the fact that it came out 50 years ago. The artistes are very toothy and have high-pitched , tremulous voices.
	12:34pm steveo: well done, Google, really. their reverse image search is pretty good.
	12:37pm Jeff Golick: I'm sort of fascinated by that actor on the left, ID'd as Stan Ross on that movie still page. Memorable face. I see he played "weirdo in the schoolyard" on a Welcome Back, Kotter episode, per IMDB, which seems about right.
	12:38pm steveo: that's fun/funny jeff
	12:39pm Rich in Washington: Every household needs those Kogar the Swinging Ape compiled Lux and Ivy's Favorites compilations.
	12:40pm steveo: i did finally find the butterfly's identity , by taking a screen shot of the uncovered rectangle where the head, antenna and part of the wings are, and feeding that to google. I won't give it away, though, because that's cheating.
	12:42pm Rich in Washington: This is a great comp!
	12:46pm Tony Coulter: The full scoop on Gammera: rock-baker.blogspot.com...
	12:48pm Rich in Washington: The Moons where also known as The Sounds of Lane.
	12:51pm Sem: Plenty o' fun on this comp, lovin' it.
	12:54pm Jeff Golick: Ok, found that butterfly, though @steveo's method didn't work for me. I did the brute force method of scrolling through this extensive RYM list: rateyourmusic.com... (Yes, I am at work. Why do you ask?)
	12:54pm steveo: Haha. Good detective work.
	12:57pm steveo: I apologize for mispelling "antennae". And "misspelling".
	12:57pm Dean: Wow, @Jeff G. One of the album covers depicted there is Solution's Cordon Bleu, a not half bad jazzy/proggy/poppy record on Elton John's Rocket label.
	12:57pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Dean!
	12:58pm Tony Coulter: If no one IDs the cover in the next 5 minutes, I will let the butterfly out of the bag.
	12:58pm steveo: I hope it's a mesh bag, at least.
	1:00pm steveo: I like the twangy portion of this tape.
	1:01pm Dean: I think Jeff ID'd it. Bee Gees' comp, no? My son spent the week up through Christmas Eve in PDX, @Tony. Got stranded on the tarmac at PDX for a few hours due to snow. For the first half hour or so he was mighty frustrated, then he realized what fun it was to watch heavy snowfall for the first time.
	1:02pm Tony Coulter: Yes ... today's mystery LP is ... The Bee Gees: "Rare, Precious & Beautiful" www.discogs.com...
	1:06pm Jeff Golick: Ahem: "Pressed By – Monarch Record Mfg. Co."
	1:06pm Tony Coulter: Monarch Butterly?!
	1:10pm Jeff Golick: Heya, @Dean. That Solution cover was designed by Hipgnosis, I see.
	1:16pm steveo: Not a monarch, Tony, according to Jeff's page: "One of the best lepidoptera covers IMO showing a Chimaera birdwing (Ornithoptera chimaera) from Indonesia. Definitely rare, precious and beautiful."
	1:19pm Jeff Golick: Great tape.
	1:22pm coelacanth∅: greetings Tony and all
	1:22pm Tony Coulter: Greets, coelacanth∅!
	1:24pm Jeff Golick: Donna Loren was Mrs. Lenny Waronker, I've learned.
	1:26pm Tony Coulter: Hmm -- the track two tunes back ("Do the Snackypoo" or whatever he was saying), was left off the tape's tracklist. So, I don't know who it was....
	1:30pm Dean: Right, @Jeff G. I'd forgotten. Foolishly, I unloaded my Solution records many years ago. Wish I'd retained them...
	1:31pm Tony Coulter: The song on now is from the soundtrack for that all-time cinematic epic "The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies."
	1:34pm Rich in Washington: Wow. That got issued on 45. It was credited to REL Recording Company.
	1:36pm Tony Coulter: I really like that film, actually.
	1:40pm Stanley: Tuesday-yay. Happy New One Tony
	1:40pm Rich in Washington: Me too. I'd loved to have seen one of the live participation screenings, where director/star Ray Dennis Steckler (aka Cash Flagg) would emerge from the shadows and seemingly off the screen to menace audience members.
	1:41pm Jeff Golick: Life can be so strange(love): "The title was originally going to be The Incredibly Strange Creature: Or Why I stopped Living and Became a Mixed-up Zombie, but Columbia Pictures threatened writer/director/star Ray Dennis Steckler with a massive lawsuit, thinking that the title was too similar to their upcoming Stanley Kubrick film, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964). Steckler was amazed that Columbia would feel so threatened by his little $38,000 film. He phoned the studio to straighten things out, but couldn't make any progress until he demanded that Kubrick get on the line. Then Steckler simply suggested the new title - Kubrick accepted, and the whole thing was dropped."
	1:41pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Stanley! Happy Newness to you too!
	1:45pm Jeff Golick: Sorry to be Johnny-Facts-A-Lot today. Just discovered that Sheila B. had Donna Loren on her show last September: wfmu.org... What I don't know could fill the internet.
	1:48pm Tony Coulter: Interesting! Will have to check that later....
	1:49pm Tony Coulter: For one thing, I want to learn if anyone really ever did do the Zonk.
	🥁 1:52pm Yvang: There's also a documentary called "How I learned to overcome my fear and Love Ariel Sharon" that I am pretty sure Kubrick didn't lawsuited. I love these japanese Suki sukies.
	1:56pm Rich in Washington: Help I'm a mops!
	1:58pm Tony Coulter: And here now is Suzy Quatro's first group - the Pleasure Seekers
	2:08pm northguineahills: Digging the diversity of this Wowsville..
	🥁 2:08pm listener james from westwood: "If the mousse tastes chalky, don't eat it!"
	2:09pm Tony Coulter: Heya, NGH!
	🥁 2:12pm Yvang: Not the laughing version.
	2:16pm Tony Coulter: Apologies to all Ungauans for mispronouncing "Ungaua." It's misspelled on the Wowsville cassette, which threw me off.
	2:19pm Rich in Washington: That's OK. It's a 90s cassette. There wasn't an internet to A: check things out and B: no one had the ability to immediately give one grief over spelling, grammar, etc..
	2:19pm Rich in Washington: Remember before the internet? Where we just did stuff and no one could immediately tell us we were wrong?
	2:20pm northguineahills: Thanks for the proper pronunciation of Moog!
	2:20pm Rich in Washington: Or am I wrong..?
	2:25pm steveo: Rich: "..?" is not a proper punctuational construct. Hope that helps.
	2:26pm Tony Coulter: I worked for an NPR station for a few years, and the rule there was, never admit you don't know how to pronounce something -- just make up a pronunciation and stick with it, no matter what.
	2:26pm Rich in Washington: @steveo: Thank you! I was getting lost in the pre-internet world and feeling uncomfortable!
	2:26pm Dean: Also, Rich, strictly speaking I think you mean "before the Web" or "before the rise of social networks," but otherwise you're right, mostly.
	2:28pm Rich in Washington: Not pre-Information Super Highway? No?
	2:28pm V Priceless: hey Tony! Diggin' this!
	2:28pm Stanley: I kinda love this cassette. I suppose I'm a bit weird.
	2:28pm Dean: Then I hope, Tony, you pronounced it "Notional Pubic Radio" and stuck to it.
	2:29pm steveo: My pleasure, Rich. Tony, this may be the most anodyne use of a Moog imaginable! LOL at/with Dean.
	2:30pm Rich in Washington: Melvoin played keyboards on Tom Waits' Nighthawks At The Diner (sorry for my hard title casing. It's what is deemed correct on Discogs.com).
	2:30pm Tony Coulter: Heya, VP! Glad you and Stanley are both digging this tape. Found it in a Seattle thrift store recently for 19 cents
	2:31pm V Priceless: @ TC - I call that a bargain...
	2:32pm Rich in Washington: I like how the bass Moog track and guitar are panned hard right and left, respectively. No one takes full advantage of stereo separation anymore.
	2:35pm Syn-the-size-a: Hippy New Year! New 1/2 Japanese is very uplifting.Why Not?
	2:37pm Tony Coulter: Greets and Hoppy Newt's Ear, Syn-the-size-a!
	2:37pm Tony Coulter: Haven't heard the new 1/2 Japanese -- would like to, tho.
	2:38pm Sem: Well, somewhere, David Clayton is spinning...
	2:39pm V Priceless: ok..this is wonderfully annoying : )
	2:41pm V Priceless: Christ! hahaha
	2:42pm Sem: Must recommend this to Brian in UK, this is his sort of thing.
	2:44pm Dean: Ginger Baker this ain't.
	2:44pm Sem: Diggin' the flatulent quasi-bass big-time. You've made my day w/ this treasure, TC.
	2:44pm βrian: "The bass moog: it lifts and separates!"
	2:45pm steveo: bend it baby!
	2:47pm Tony Coulter: and ... here's an Orpheus cover....
	2:47pm V Priceless: yeah - forget blue tooth - we got all the sawtooth you need right here
	2:51pm steveo: Thanks Tony! good fun today.
	2:53pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for a fun show today, Tony!
	2:53pm Sem: Concur with ^. Thanks, Tony.
	2:54pm Tony Coulter: Oops -- have time for one more track after all!
	2:54pm Tony Coulter: Cheers, everybody! See you next week, I hope....
	🥁 2:55pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, Tony!
	2:56pm steveo: i'm a-stayin', Patsy/Tony/Cheyenne...
	2:56pm Tony Coulter: Hmm: "Pasty Cline" is a good typo -- but still....
	2:56pm steveo: haha
	2:58pm Jeff Golick: Thanks for a great one, Tony!
	3:36pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tony!

	12:03pm Tony Coulter: Hey, hey, hey, Listener J and βrian! Happy 2018 to yerz too!
	12:03pm Sem: Greets, left coast Tony, from Atlantic shore-bound ears. Hey, βrian, ljfw.
	12:03pm steveo: Happy Tuesday, Tony. I'm a bad guesser but a willing listener.
	12:04pm Jeff Golick: 2018, already better. Hiya, Tony & Tonyettes.
	🥁 12:04pm Yvang: hIYA! Happy peanut butter and 2018!
	🥁 12:05pm Yvang: For the first time I know what the LP is, but I won't tell.
	12:07pm Tony Coulter: Hola hey hello, Sem, Steveo, Jeff G, & Yvang!!!!
	12:08pm Rich in Washington: Love that Wolverton art on the cover.
	12:09pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Rich! Wuz just going to say: The cassette on now is the one on the left, with the Basil Wolverton freakout fellow.
	12:09pm Rich in Washington: Basil's from my hometown Vancouver Washington. That there isn't a Lena Hyena statue on Main Street in his honor is a disgrace.
	12:10pm Tiago from Portugal: Hi Tony, Happy New Year!
	12:11pm Rich in Washington: I mean, there's a Willie Nelson mural in town, commemorating the couple of years he was a radio DJ on Vancouver radio, but no love for Basil.
	12:11pm Tony Coulter: @ Rich: Wow! Didn't know Wolverton was from Vancouver! That should make you swell with civic pride.
	12:11pm Rich in Washington: This is great. An early example of someone collecting those wonderfully trashy garage singles.
	12:11pm Tony Coulter: Greetings, Tiago!!
	🥁 12:12pm Yvang: Wolverton is great.
	12:12pm Rich in Washington: It does. Also, Monte, his son, also lives in nearby Battle Ground Washington, and he's also an illustrator, painter, sculptor. He's a syndicated editorial cartoonist.
	12:15pm Tony Coulter: This side of this tape features lots of songs about bugs. The second side has lots of Japanese stuff.
	12:18pm Tony Coulter: No guesses re today's LP jacket? Yvang was gentlemanly enough to recuse himself, but that doesn't mean everyone else should abstain.
	🥁 12:20pm listener james from westwood: This was used to good effect in Hairspray.
	12:21pm Tony Coulter: Can't help wondering how many of the tracks I'm playing today are in heavy rotation on the Ichiban stream.
	12:23pm Jeff Golick: All (I think) I recognize is a still from Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, in the middle (?).
	12:24pm Tony Coulter: Yeah, I think you could be right -- looks familiar to me too.
	🥁 12:25pm listener james from westwood: LOL, this does have all the makings of a Rex set!
	🥁 12:26pm Yvang: Not Iron Butterfly, not Talk Talk, not House of Love...
	12:26pm Tony Coulter: @ Listener James: I know, I feel like I'm turning into someone else -- maybe even a fly.
	12:28pm Sem: Duckduckgo's best guess is Valley of the Dolls.
	12:28pm steveo: i am surprised I can't find the butterfly cover via google search...
	12:29pm steveo: I found the BtVotD image though: www.moviestillsdb.com...
	12:30pm Jeff Golick: Well done, @steveo.
	12:32pm Tony Coulter: Yes, well done, Steveo. The "Butterfly Cover" LP is a common dollar bin item to this day, despite the fact that it came out 50 years ago. The artistes are very toothy and have high-pitched , tremulous voices.
	12:34pm steveo: well done, Google, really. their reverse image search is pretty good.
	12:37pm Jeff Golick: I'm sort of fascinated by that actor on the left, ID'd as Stan Ross on that movie still page. Memorable face. I see he played "weirdo in the schoolyard" on a Welcome Back, Kotter episode, per IMDB, which seems about right.
	12:38pm steveo: that's fun/funny jeff
	12:39pm Rich in Washington: Every household needs those Kogar the Swinging Ape compiled Lux and Ivy's Favorites compilations.
	12:40pm steveo: i did finally find the butterfly's identity , by taking a screen shot of the uncovered rectangle where the head, antenna and part of the wings are, and feeding that to google. I won't give it away, though, because that's cheating.
	12:42pm Rich in Washington: This is a great comp!
	12:46pm Tony Coulter: The full scoop on Gammera: rock-baker.blogspot.com...
	12:48pm Rich in Washington: The Moons where also known as The Sounds of Lane.
	12:51pm Sem: Plenty o' fun on this comp, lovin' it.
	12:54pm Jeff Golick: Ok, found that butterfly, though @steveo's method didn't work for me. I did the brute force method of scrolling through this extensive RYM list: rateyourmusic.com... (Yes, I am at work. Why do you ask?)
	12:54pm steveo: Haha. Good detective work.
	12:57pm steveo: I apologize for mispelling "antennae". And "misspelling".
	12:57pm Dean: Wow, @Jeff G. One of the album covers depicted there is Solution's Cordon Bleu, a not half bad jazzy/proggy/poppy record on Elton John's Rocket label.
	12:57pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Dean!
	12:58pm Tony Coulter: If no one IDs the cover in the next 5 minutes, I will let the butterfly out of the bag.
	12:58pm steveo: I hope it's a mesh bag, at least.
	1:00pm steveo: I like the twangy portion of this tape.
	1:01pm Dean: I think Jeff ID'd it. Bee Gees' comp, no? My son spent the week up through Christmas Eve in PDX, @Tony. Got stranded on the tarmac at PDX for a few hours due to snow. For the first half hour or so he was mighty frustrated, then he realized what fun it was to watch heavy snowfall for the first time.
	1:02pm Tony Coulter: Yes ... today's mystery LP is ... The Bee Gees: "Rare, Precious & Beautiful" www.discogs.com...
	1:06pm Jeff Golick: Ahem: "Pressed By – Monarch Record Mfg. Co."
	1:06pm Tony Coulter: Monarch Butterly?!
	1:10pm Jeff Golick: Heya, @Dean. That Solution cover was designed by Hipgnosis, I see.
	1:16pm steveo: Not a monarch, Tony, according to Jeff's page: "One of the best lepidoptera covers IMO showing a Chimaera birdwing (Ornithoptera chimaera) from Indonesia. Definitely rare, precious and beautiful."
	1:19pm Jeff Golick: Great tape.
	1:22pm coelacanth∅: greetings Tony and all
	1:22pm Tony Coulter: Greets, coelacanth∅!
	1:24pm Jeff Golick: Donna Loren was Mrs. Lenny Waronker, I've learned.
	1:26pm Tony Coulter: Hmm -- the track two tunes back ("Do the Snackypoo" or whatever he was saying), was left off the tape's tracklist. So, I don't know who it was....
	1:30pm Dean: Right, @Jeff G. I'd forgotten. Foolishly, I unloaded my Solution records many years ago. Wish I'd retained them...
	1:31pm Tony Coulter: The song on now is from the soundtrack for that all-time cinematic epic "The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies."
	1:34pm Rich in Washington: Wow. That got issued on 45. It was credited to REL Recording Company.
	1:36pm Tony Coulter: I really like that film, actually.
	1:40pm Stanley: Tuesday-yay. Happy New One Tony
	1:40pm Rich in Washington: Me too. I'd loved to have seen one of the live participation screenings, where director/star Ray Dennis Steckler (aka Cash Flagg) would emerge from the shadows and seemingly off the screen to menace audience members.
	1:41pm Jeff Golick: Life can be so strange(love): "The title was originally going to be The Incredibly Strange Creature: Or Why I stopped Living and Became a Mixed-up Zombie, but Columbia Pictures threatened writer/director/star Ray Dennis Steckler with a massive lawsuit, thinking that the title was too similar to their upcoming Stanley Kubrick film, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964). Steckler was amazed that Columbia would feel so threatened by his little $38,000 film. He phoned the studio to straighten things out, but couldn't make any progress until he demanded that Kubrick get on the line. Then Steckler simply suggested the new title - Kubrick accepted, and the whole thing was dropped."
	1:41pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Stanley! Happy Newness to you too!
	1:45pm Jeff Golick: Sorry to be Johnny-Facts-A-Lot today. Just discovered that Sheila B. had Donna Loren on her show last September: wfmu.org... What I don't know could fill the internet.
	1:48pm Tony Coulter: Interesting! Will have to check that later....
	1:49pm Tony Coulter: For one thing, I want to learn if anyone really ever did do the Zonk.
	🥁 1:52pm Yvang: There's also a documentary called "How I learned to overcome my fear and Love Ariel Sharon" that I am pretty sure Kubrick didn't lawsuited. I love these japanese Suki sukies.
	1:56pm Rich in Washington: Help I'm a mops!
	1:58pm Tony Coulter: And here now is Suzy Quatro's first group - the Pleasure Seekers
	2:08pm northguineahills: Digging the diversity of this Wowsville..
	🥁 2:08pm listener james from westwood: "If the mousse tastes chalky, don't eat it!"
	2:09pm Tony Coulter: Heya, NGH!
	🥁 2:12pm Yvang: Not the laughing version.
	2:16pm Tony Coulter: Apologies to all Ungauans for mispronouncing "Ungaua." It's misspelled on the Wowsville cassette, which threw me off.
	2:19pm Rich in Washington: That's OK. It's a 90s cassette. There wasn't an internet to A: check things out and B: no one had the ability to immediately give one grief over spelling, grammar, etc..
	2:19pm Rich in Washington: Remember before the internet? Where we just did stuff and no one could immediately tell us we were wrong?
	2:20pm northguineahills: Thanks for the proper pronunciation of Moog!
	2:20pm Rich in Washington: Or am I wrong..?
	2:25pm steveo: Rich: "..?" is not a proper punctuational construct. Hope that helps.
	2:26pm Tony Coulter: I worked for an NPR station for a few years, and the rule there was, never admit you don't know how to pronounce something -- just make up a pronunciation and stick with it, no matter what.
	2:26pm Rich in Washington: @steveo: Thank you! I was getting lost in the pre-internet world and feeling uncomfortable!
	2:26pm Dean: Also, Rich, strictly speaking I think you mean "before the Web" or "before the rise of social networks," but otherwise you're right, mostly.
	2:28pm Rich in Washington: Not pre-Information Super Highway? No?
	2:28pm V Priceless: hey Tony! Diggin' this!
	2:28pm Stanley: I kinda love this cassette. I suppose I'm a bit weird.
	2:28pm Dean: Then I hope, Tony, you pronounced it "Notional Pubic Radio" and stuck to it.
	2:29pm steveo: My pleasure, Rich. Tony, this may be the most anodyne use of a Moog imaginable! LOL at/with Dean.
	2:30pm Rich in Washington: Melvoin played keyboards on Tom Waits' Nighthawks At The Diner (sorry for my hard title casing. It's what is deemed correct on Discogs.com).
	2:30pm Tony Coulter: Heya, VP! Glad you and Stanley are both digging this tape. Found it in a Seattle thrift store recently for 19 cents
	2:31pm V Priceless: @ TC - I call that a bargain...
	2:32pm Rich in Washington: I like how the bass Moog track and guitar are panned hard right and left, respectively. No one takes full advantage of stereo separation anymore.
	2:35pm Syn-the-size-a: Hippy New Year! New 1/2 Japanese is very uplifting.Why Not?
	2:37pm Tony Coulter: Greets and Hoppy Newt's Ear, Syn-the-size-a!
	2:37pm Tony Coulter: Haven't heard the new 1/2 Japanese -- would like to, tho.
	2:38pm Sem: Well, somewhere, David Clayton is spinning...
	2:39pm V Priceless: ok..this is wonderfully annoying : )
	2:41pm V Priceless: Christ! hahaha
	2:42pm Sem: Must recommend this to Brian in UK, this is his sort of thing.
	2:44pm Dean: Ginger Baker this ain't.
	2:44pm Sem: Diggin' the flatulent quasi-bass big-time. You've made my day w/ this treasure, TC.
	2:44pm βrian: "The bass moog: it lifts and separates!"
	2:45pm steveo: bend it baby!
	2:47pm Tony Coulter: and ... here's an Orpheus cover....
	2:47pm V Priceless: yeah - forget blue tooth - we got all the sawtooth you need right here
	2:51pm steveo: Thanks Tony! good fun today.
	2:53pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for a fun show today, Tony!
	2:53pm Sem: Concur with ^. Thanks, Tony.
	2:54pm Tony Coulter: Oops -- have time for one more track after all!
	2:54pm Tony Coulter: Cheers, everybody! See you next week, I hope....
	🥁 2:55pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, Tony!
	2:56pm steveo: i'm a-stayin', Patsy/Tony/Cheyenne...
	2:56pm Tony Coulter: Hmm: "Pasty Cline" is a good typo -- but still....
	2:56pm steveo: haha
	2:58pm Jeff Golick: Thanks for a great one, Tony!
	3:36pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tony!
