	7:07pm Flash Strap: Hi Fuzzy! I've always been obsessed with Forever Changes and Da Capo, but never went this deep on the s/t until i got a copy a couple months back
	7:08pm Flash Strap: @rev: what you mean
	7:09pm Franco Twinkie: With Arthur Lee, it always swerved madly between fantastic and frightening.
	🥁 7:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love 1st album perfectly poised beteween bYRdS & doors in L.A. Love @ nexus like that - Garage, FlokRawk, Psych &tc. ...I see only tiny pic upper left corner...maybe I should refresh...
	7:09pm Doug Schulkind: Uncontrollable wisdom tooth. ABCESSED!
	7:11pm doctorjazz: Hello Flasheroonio!
	7:12pm Flash Strap: Hi Doc!
	7:13pm Flash Strap: Anybody else seeing what Rev's seeing? wanna get my imagery quite correct
	🥁 7:13pm chresti: The T bands!
	7:14pm Flash Strap: 3 Ts, then Triangle
	🥁 7:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Brummels ! Yet to be assessed...
	🥁 7:14pm chresti: It's a "no entry" symbol!Flash
	🥁 7:14pm chresti: *@at Flash
	7:14pm Franco Twinkie: The funniest thing I ever heard was Howard Kaylan and Mark Volman interviewing Arthur Lee and just trying to get him to behave himself. Priceless!
	7:15pm Fuzzy: 3 Ts then 2 Bs sure to please!
	7:16pm Flash Strap: @chresti: i'm hoping I just fixed it
	🥁 7:16pm chresti: It must be hard to behave around Howard K and Mark V
	7:16pm Flash Strap: @Franco: oh i want to see that! they do great interviews
	7:18pm geezerette: Delicately shake back my lace cuff to take some snuff.
	7:19pm Flash Strap: Ah, Geezerette! hello!
	🥁 7:19pm chresti: All Fixed!
	7:19pm Flash Strap: Wonderful, thanks for confirming!
	7:20pm geezerette: aaaaaah-CHOO! Howdy, Evan!
	🥁 7:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Arthur Lee - Sun Pisces, Year of Wood Rooster.
	🥁 7:21pm chresti: I feel like that grass awning is not secure
	7:21pm hyde: whoa, geezerette!!!
	7:22pm hyde: also, bless you
	7:23pm hyde: the glowing pumpkin is a nice seasonal touch to the shhhhhh don't talk about it ok i won't
	7:23pm geezerette: Hyyyyyyyyyde!!! Good to see you! :)
	7:23pm Flash Strap: @chresti: I feel like a hermitage is either invulnerable to the elements or as ephemeral as a child's play fort, this one falls under the latter
	🥁 7:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: He can't mend it. He's a Mendicant.
	🥁 7:24pm chresti: Now we're going to have to shake the snuff from the lace, or snuff the lace directly
	7:24pm Franco Twinkie: I met Johnny Echols once and told him I would probably hear his strangled guitar as the life was leaving my body. That's how strongly I feel about Live And Let LIve and A House Is Not A Motel.
	7:24pm Flash Strap: @hyde: We talk about it now, we call it the Hellraiser, which is inconvenient for those of us that raise hell year-round
	7:25pm hyde: @Flash not to mention the Clive Barker fan club
	7:26pm geezerette: chresti, be careful; a little goes a long, long way.
	7:27pm Flash Strap: Amazing, Franco. I'm with ya, he's amazing. Post-Echols Love records are very hard for me to care about, much as I try
	7:28pm hyde: hey, waitaminnit. i'm not sure that i signed up for lace snuffing.
	7:28pm geezerette: OK, spill the pepitas, how'd the pumpkins appear? What window have I missed?
	🥁 7:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Forever Changes' - Baroque yet Balanced. & it took most of us decades to discover it!
	7:31pm geezerette: Hyde, I was having a laff at Beau Brummels, even though they make me happy.
	🥁 7:31pm chresti: It appears after offering some lace powder to the Hellraiser
	7:31pm Flash Strap: @Rev: truly truly a masterpiece, so special and unique
	7:32pm Flash Strap: @Geeze: the only sane response to their Lord Byron act honestly
	7:32pm Franco Twinkie: I have a different feeling about Love from the Blue Thumb period. I got those records when they first came out, and had not yet become an insufferable rock snob.
	7:34pm geezerette: OH! Thanks, Chresti! (...absolutely no idea...)
	🥁 7:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I can say I found the vinyl LP of 'Forever' before the yuppies snorted up the CD reissue...
	7:34pm geezerette: @Evan, thanks for support!
	7:35pm Flash Strap: that;s incredible Rev - I had to be content with the CD reissue until a few months ago when I inherited an LP copy. i actually have always preferred the alt. mix of the closing track though, to be honest, so the CD is still my friend as well
	🥁 7:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Brummels were 'FolkRawk' in S.F. quite early. (The bYRdS hit early in S.F. - btw!...) Check 'Don't Talk to Strangers' by them: I think it's almost like the doors...
	7:36pm Franco Twinkie: Sorry to say, but I gotta go. I could rattle on about Love in it's many permutations all night long, just ask Chresti!
	🥁 7:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sure - but I can say I found 'Forever' quite independently of any Critic or anyone... Unlike 'Pet Sounds'. :) ...
	7:37pm Flash Strap: Hate to say goodbye, Franco
	🥁 7:37pm chresti: The pumpkin mysteriously appears without warning sometimes. It first visited me last Monday night
	7:37pm Flash Strap: must be nice, Rev
	7:37pm hyde: @geez i love the Beau Brummels! i also especially like Bradley's Barn, which is full of crosscultural confusion
	7:38pm geezerette: RevRab, you are a treasure. I mean it man. :)
	7:38pm Franco Twinkie: I will stay long enough to hear Johnny Echols jump off the cliff at the end of this one. Thanks Flash!
	7:39pm hyde: @revrab wow
	7:39pm Flash Strap: @Franco: He really does, god i love it
	7:41pm geezerette: Chresti, how funny! Thanks, Hyde!
	🥁 7:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I mean - I heard 'She Comes In Colors' on the radio somewhere - & didn't know who it was for decades! Maybe 'Little Red Book'...hard to believe now!
	🥁 7:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @geez: I seem to have a precarious relationship w/ treasure - to look @ my bank balance...but one is known by the company one keeps - they say...
	7:47pm geezerette: Will still be listening / enjoying, but not commenting for awhile. Trying to create order from chaos. @RevRab, excellent company here, always. It's a grand room, this!
	7:49pm hyde: good luck, geez!
	7:50pm Flash Strap: Best of luck, Geeze!
	🥁 7:50pm chresti: My introduction (that I remember) to Little Black Book, was in LA in '76, performed by a band that my friends were in, Manuel and the Gardeners
	7:52pm Flash Strap: Incredibly jealous you got to negotiate your own relationship with Forever Changes, Rev, at my age its critical status was well cemented. fortunately it lives up to its rep, but damn
	🥁 7:52pm chresti: See you geez!
	🥁 7:53pm chresti: A recording of it, that is @7:50
	🥁 7:55pm chresti: Really enjoyable set!
	7:56pm Flash Strap: Sal Valentino (of Beau Brummels) performing a song from Running, Jumping, Standing Still, produced by Van Dyke Parks
	7:58pm Flash Strap: top VDP track imo
	8:00pm coelacanth∅: greetings Evan, Explorers
	8:01pm Flash Strap: Hi Coelacanth!
	8:05pm melinda: hi friends
	8:05pm Flash Strap: Hi Melinda!
	8:10pm Flash Strap: illustration to this song (aka "The Daemon Lover") from the 1912 book Ballads Weird and Wonderful: 66.media.tumblr.com...
	8:10pm Flash Strap: en.wikipedia.org...
	8:10pm David D: This tune rings a bell.
	8:11pm Flash Strap: Hi david D.!
	8:11pm northguineahills: Didn't David Dichelle do a bunch of House Carpenter versions this week, or was it last?
	8:11pm northguineahills: Speaking of the devil....
	8:12pm David D: Hey Evan, enjoying the show from the beginning, but you got me out of my lurk mode with that one.
	8:12pm David D: Hey NGH
	8:13pm Flash Strap: Hi NGH! Damn David D., sounds like I need to catch up on yr archives! one of my favorite songs
	8:13pm Flash Strap: honored to have unlurked you my dear comrade
	8:14pm David D: I didn't play that version, there are so many good ones.
	8:16pm David D: Late at night here, so I usually lurk - sometimes I even skulk, but in a good way.
	8:16pm Flash Strap: i actually have another up my sleeve for later, but I just checked your playlist for it and I think I'm in the clear!
	8:18pm Flash Strap: i'm almost always in lurk mode - if i'm not planning my own show i usually have my hands full in the studio and not much for commenting because of that
	8:20pm Flash Strap: such a spooky lament, this
	8:20pm David D: Anyhow, before I slip back into the dark of night, let me just say that this has been an excellent show, thanks!
	8:21pm Flash Strap: thank you, friend. enjoy the night
	8:23pm northguineahills: knew this had to be Flynt!
	8:23pm coelacanth∅: i just switched computers and, as with my other one the image does not show. normally, with both machines, i click "view image" then return and refresh the page and the picture is visible. when i just clicked view image gobble wanted me to sign in (which i'm not going to do) - is the image on some kind of gooble application?
	8:25pm Flash Strap: @C: huh weird, yeah I host with google photos but usually its not a problem
	8:26pm passiflora: yesss
	8:26pm doctorjazz: Boy, talk about primitive...about as basic blues guitar as one canflail!
	8:27pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Yeah, that's not a valid image link. And you should just use the new built-in image library instead!
	8:28pm coelacanth∅: okay that explains it anyway. (i guess...i never had to sign in before, and i'm rarely signed in to google on this computer, which is my main for fmu streaming)
	8:29pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Go to adv. show options, Top Image field, and either feed it an actually public image URL (yours here is a private URL only for when you're signed into your own Google account), or save it to your computer and then use the upload option.
	8:29pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): (and then remove your Top HTML)
	8:31pm Flash Strap: Hi Kenzo. Must be some weird settings change because I've done it the same way for like 5 years now
	8:32pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Even if it were a valid public URL, it's still much better to feed the URL to the new "top image" field than use the old way of pasting HTML into the "top HTML" field.
	8:35pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Your past playlist images are all broken because Google considers the URL you've used as private, for your signed-in browser only. Maybe it used to consider your account public. But even if this weren't the case, entering a URL in the Top Image field is still better.
	8:35pm Flash Strap: i hear ya, i started doing that way back because it actually was easier, i suppose with the new feature it's no longer the case
	8:37pm doctorjazz: The famous Neil 1 note solo.!
	8:38pm Flash Strap: some of my favorite guitar right here, so inspired
	8:39pm doctorjazz: The opening guitar slinging is cool indeed.
	8:42pm doctorjazz: Always loved this album!
	8:44pm doctorjazz: (Down By the River is actually the famous 1 note solo, I sit here embarrassed...)
	8:45pm doctorjazz: Ok gotta run, thanks, Evan!
	8:50pm TDK60: How dare I be so late to such proceedings; Buffy, V.D. Parks, etc!
	8:54pm Flash Strap: Adios Doc!
	8:55pm TDK60: Metal Machine Music is rather dainty afternoon tea music, right?
	8:55pm Flash Strap: Hi TDK! it's basically Vivaldi
	9:13pm Flash Strap: whoo this one is a long walk
	9:20pm northguineahills: I think I remember reading some muttering that the only reason that Tony Conrad became famous was b/c he recorded w/ German rock band. How many people anywhere in 1973 had heard of Faust?
	9:22pm Flash Strap: I think they were pretty well known in Europe by then, actually. Their 2nd record did fairly well, and the critics were big on them from the jump
	9:22pm northguineahills: No one accused either of getting famous when Tony recorded w/ Gastr del Sol....
	9:24pm Flash Strap: I actually haven't heard much else of his, outside the Angus Maclise stuff
	9:27pm TDK60: I knew some blooz would come oozing thru the sitars.
	9:27pm Flash Strap: with Ry Cooder in the mix it's inevitable
	9:30pm Flash Strap: such a great dopey acid fried cover: img.discogs.com...
	9:30pm TDK60: ..ah, Mr. Cooder here, huh.
	9:31pm Flash Strap: this whole ensemble is wrecking crew guys, basically. Mike Deasy seems to be the point man
	9:33pm TDK60: ..was that a vox humana there? sorta sounds like mellotron but I think is older?
	9:34pm Flash Strap: I was curious about that too, but can't find anything that;s more specific than keyboards
	🥁 9:41pm chresti: Nice slice of Donovan there.
	9:42pm TDK60: I'm practicing to learn a song from this Donovan Flower-to-Garden album.
	🥁 9:44pm chresti: good songs to learn it seems
	9:45pm Flash Strap: Which one, TDK?
	9:45pm TDK60: ..the one I'm working on is Epistle To Derroll.
	9:45pm Flash Strap: much agreed chresti
	9:46pm Flash Strap: great one TDK
	9:47pm Ignore Function: Cool show tonight.
	9:47pm Flash Strap: Hi there IF, thanks
	9:51pm coelacanth∅: ah, the song they got the orchestral arrangement from for nights in white satin.
	9:52pm coelacanth∅: (they=Peter Knight)
	9:53pm northguineahills: Thanks, Evan!
	9:53pm Flash Strap: whoa, is that true? makes sense but I've never heard that before
	9:54pm coelacanth∅: i've never known anyone else to claim it, but i hear it clearly.
	9:55pm Flash Strap: you're so right
	9:55pm geezerette: Evan, Feels like we've been in an early 50's coffee house in Berkeley or S.F. all evening. Enchanting! Thanks, always!
	9:55pm TDK60: ..thanks DJ Flash. Loved the folk/rock/etc.
	9:56pm coelacanth∅: i'm looking forward to listening to this archive at home, on a good stereo, and in it's entirety. Thanks Evan
	9:58pm coelacanth∅: bummer Franco isn't here for all the Love. he Love's Love.
	9:59pm Flash Strap: I know! he caught the lion's share of it though
	🥁 9:59pm chresti: Thanks Flash, high levels of enjoyment were had!
	9:59pm Flash Strap: thanks all, see you next week with a hot new show
	9:59pm passiflora: thank you
	🥁 10:00pm chresti: Oh yeah coel, he'll listen to the rest for sure

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

	7:25pm hyde: @Flash not to mention the Clive Barker fan club
	7:26pm geezerette: chresti, be careful; a little goes a long, long way.
	7:27pm Flash Strap: Amazing, Franco. I'm with ya, he's amazing. Post-Echols Love records are very hard for me to care about, much as I try
	7:28pm hyde: hey, waitaminnit. i'm not sure that i signed up for lace snuffing.
	7:28pm geezerette: OK, spill the pepitas, how'd the pumpkins appear? What window have I missed?
	🥁 7:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Forever Changes' - Baroque yet Balanced. & it took most of us decades to discover it!
	7:31pm geezerette: Hyde, I was having a laff at Beau Brummels, even though they make me happy.
	🥁 7:31pm chresti: It appears after offering some lace powder to the Hellraiser
	7:31pm Flash Strap: @Rev: truly truly a masterpiece, so special and unique
	7:32pm Flash Strap: @Geeze: the only sane response to their Lord Byron act honestly
	7:32pm Franco Twinkie: I have a different feeling about Love from the Blue Thumb period. I got those records when they first came out, and had not yet become an insufferable rock snob.
	7:34pm geezerette: OH! Thanks, Chresti! (...absolutely no idea...)
	🥁 7:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I can say I found the vinyl LP of 'Forever' before the yuppies snorted up the CD reissue...
	7:34pm geezerette: @Evan, thanks for support!
	7:35pm Flash Strap: that;s incredible Rev - I had to be content with the CD reissue until a few months ago when I inherited an LP copy. i actually have always preferred the alt. mix of the closing track though, to be honest, so the CD is still my friend as well
	🥁 7:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Brummels were 'FolkRawk' in S.F. quite early. (The bYRdS hit early in S.F. - btw!...) Check 'Don't Talk to Strangers' by them: I think it's almost like the doors...
	7:36pm Franco Twinkie: Sorry to say, but I gotta go. I could rattle on about Love in it's many permutations all night long, just ask Chresti!
	🥁 7:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sure - but I can say I found 'Forever' quite independently of any Critic or anyone... Unlike 'Pet Sounds'. :) ...
	7:37pm Flash Strap: Hate to say goodbye, Franco
	🥁 7:37pm chresti: The pumpkin mysteriously appears without warning sometimes. It first visited me last Monday night
	7:37pm Flash Strap: must be nice, Rev
	7:37pm hyde: @geez i love the Beau Brummels! i also especially like Bradley's Barn, which is full of crosscultural confusion
	7:38pm geezerette: RevRab, you are a treasure. I mean it man. :)
	7:38pm Franco Twinkie: I will stay long enough to hear Johnny Echols jump off the cliff at the end of this one. Thanks Flash!
	7:39pm hyde: @revrab wow
	7:39pm Flash Strap: @Franco: He really does, god i love it
	7:41pm geezerette: Chresti, how funny! Thanks, Hyde!
	🥁 7:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I mean - I heard 'She Comes In Colors' on the radio somewhere - & didn't know who it was for decades! Maybe 'Little Red Book'...hard to believe now!
	🥁 7:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @geez: I seem to have a precarious relationship w/ treasure - to look @ my bank balance...but one is known by the company one keeps - they say...
	7:47pm geezerette: Will still be listening / enjoying, but not commenting for awhile. Trying to create order from chaos. @RevRab, excellent company here, always. It's a grand room, this!
	7:49pm hyde: good luck, geez!
	7:50pm Flash Strap: Best of luck, Geeze!
	🥁 7:50pm chresti: My introduction (that I remember) to Little Black Book, was in LA in '76, performed by a band that my friends were in, Manuel and the Gardeners
	7:52pm Flash Strap: Incredibly jealous you got to negotiate your own relationship with Forever Changes, Rev, at my age its critical status was well cemented. fortunately it lives up to its rep, but damn
	🥁 7:52pm chresti: See you geez!
	🥁 7:53pm chresti: A recording of it, that is @7:50
	🥁 7:55pm chresti: Really enjoyable set!
	7:56pm Flash Strap: Sal Valentino (of Beau Brummels) performing a song from Running, Jumping, Standing Still, produced by Van Dyke Parks
	7:58pm Flash Strap: top VDP track imo
	8:00pm coelacanth∅: greetings Evan, Explorers
	8:01pm Flash Strap: Hi Coelacanth!
	8:05pm melinda: hi friends
	8:05pm Flash Strap: Hi Melinda!
	8:10pm Flash Strap: illustration to this song (aka "The Daemon Lover") from the 1912 book Ballads Weird and Wonderful: 66.media.tumblr.com...
	8:10pm Flash Strap: en.wikipedia.org...
	8:10pm David D: This tune rings a bell.
	8:11pm Flash Strap: Hi david D.!
	8:11pm northguineahills: Didn't David Dichelle do a bunch of House Carpenter versions this week, or was it last?
	8:11pm northguineahills: Speaking of the devil....
	8:12pm David D: Hey Evan, enjoying the show from the beginning, but you got me out of my lurk mode with that one.
	8:12pm David D: Hey NGH
	8:13pm Flash Strap: Hi NGH! Damn David D., sounds like I need to catch up on yr archives! one of my favorite songs
	8:13pm Flash Strap: honored to have unlurked you my dear comrade
	8:14pm David D: I didn't play that version, there are so many good ones.
	8:16pm David D: Late at night here, so I usually lurk - sometimes I even skulk, but in a good way.
	8:16pm Flash Strap: i actually have another up my sleeve for later, but I just checked your playlist for it and I think I'm in the clear!
	8:18pm Flash Strap: i'm almost always in lurk mode - if i'm not planning my own show i usually have my hands full in the studio and not much for commenting because of that
	8:20pm Flash Strap: such a spooky lament, this
	8:20pm David D: Anyhow, before I slip back into the dark of night, let me just say that this has been an excellent show, thanks!
	8:21pm Flash Strap: thank you, friend. enjoy the night
	8:23pm northguineahills: knew this had to be Flynt!
	8:23pm coelacanth∅: i just switched computers and, as with my other one the image does not show. normally, with both machines, i click "view image" then return and refresh the page and the picture is visible. when i just clicked view image gobble wanted me to sign in (which i'm not going to do) - is the image on some kind of gooble application?
	8:25pm Flash Strap: @C: huh weird, yeah I host with google photos but usually its not a problem
	8:26pm passiflora: yesss
	8:26pm doctorjazz: Boy, talk about primitive...about as basic blues guitar as one canflail!
	8:27pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Yeah, that's not a valid image link. And you should just use the new built-in image library instead!
	8:28pm coelacanth∅: okay that explains it anyway. (i guess...i never had to sign in before, and i'm rarely signed in to google on this computer, which is my main for fmu streaming)
	8:29pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Go to adv. show options, Top Image field, and either feed it an actually public image URL (yours here is a private URL only for when you're signed into your own Google account), or save it to your computer and then use the upload option.
	8:29pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): (and then remove your Top HTML)
	8:31pm Flash Strap: Hi Kenzo. Must be some weird settings change because I've done it the same way for like 5 years now
	8:32pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Even if it were a valid public URL, it's still much better to feed the URL to the new "top image" field than use the old way of pasting HTML into the "top HTML" field.
	8:35pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Your past playlist images are all broken because Google considers the URL you've used as private, for your signed-in browser only. Maybe it used to consider your account public. But even if this weren't the case, entering a URL in the Top Image field is still better.
	8:35pm Flash Strap: i hear ya, i started doing that way back because it actually was easier, i suppose with the new feature it's no longer the case
	8:37pm doctorjazz: The famous Neil 1 note solo.!
	8:38pm Flash Strap: some of my favorite guitar right here, so inspired
	8:39pm doctorjazz: The opening guitar slinging is cool indeed.
	8:42pm doctorjazz: Always loved this album!
	8:44pm doctorjazz: (Down By the River is actually the famous 1 note solo, I sit here embarrassed...)
	8:45pm doctorjazz: Ok gotta run, thanks, Evan!
	8:50pm TDK60: How dare I be so late to such proceedings; Buffy, V.D. Parks, etc!
	8:54pm Flash Strap: Adios Doc!
	8:55pm TDK60: Metal Machine Music is rather dainty afternoon tea music, right?
	8:55pm Flash Strap: Hi TDK! it's basically Vivaldi
	9:13pm Flash Strap: whoo this one is a long walk
	9:20pm northguineahills: I think I remember reading some muttering that the only reason that Tony Conrad became famous was b/c he recorded w/ German rock band. How many people anywhere in 1973 had heard of Faust?
	9:22pm Flash Strap: I think they were pretty well known in Europe by then, actually. Their 2nd record did fairly well, and the critics were big on them from the jump
	9:22pm northguineahills: No one accused either of getting famous when Tony recorded w/ Gastr del Sol....
	9:24pm Flash Strap: I actually haven't heard much else of his, outside the Angus Maclise stuff
	9:27pm TDK60: I knew some blooz would come oozing thru the sitars.
	9:27pm Flash Strap: with Ry Cooder in the mix it's inevitable
	9:30pm Flash Strap: such a great dopey acid fried cover: img.discogs.com...
	9:30pm TDK60: ..ah, Mr. Cooder here, huh.
	9:31pm Flash Strap: this whole ensemble is wrecking crew guys, basically. Mike Deasy seems to be the point man
	9:33pm TDK60: ..was that a vox humana there? sorta sounds like mellotron but I think is older?
	9:34pm Flash Strap: I was curious about that too, but can't find anything that;s more specific than keyboards
	🥁 9:41pm chresti: Nice slice of Donovan there.
	9:42pm TDK60: I'm practicing to learn a song from this Donovan Flower-to-Garden album.
	🥁 9:44pm chresti: good songs to learn it seems
	9:45pm Flash Strap: Which one, TDK?
	9:45pm TDK60: ..the one I'm working on is Epistle To Derroll.
	9:45pm Flash Strap: much agreed chresti
	9:46pm Flash Strap: great one TDK
	9:47pm Ignore Function: Cool show tonight.
	9:47pm Flash Strap: Hi there IF, thanks
	9:51pm coelacanth∅: ah, the song they got the orchestral arrangement from for nights in white satin.
	9:52pm coelacanth∅: (they=Peter Knight)
	9:53pm northguineahills: Thanks, Evan!
	9:53pm Flash Strap: whoa, is that true? makes sense but I've never heard that before
	9:54pm coelacanth∅: i've never known anyone else to claim it, but i hear it clearly.
	9:55pm Flash Strap: you're so right
	9:55pm geezerette: Evan, Feels like we've been in an early 50's coffee house in Berkeley or S.F. all evening. Enchanting! Thanks, always!
	9:55pm TDK60: ..thanks DJ Flash. Loved the folk/rock/etc.
	9:56pm coelacanth∅: i'm looking forward to listening to this archive at home, on a good stereo, and in it's entirety. Thanks Evan
	9:58pm coelacanth∅: bummer Franco isn't here for all the Love. he Love's Love.
	9:59pm Flash Strap: I know! he caught the lion's share of it though
	🥁 9:59pm chresti: Thanks Flash, high levels of enjoyment were had!
	9:59pm Flash Strap: thanks all, see you next week with a hot new show
	9:59pm passiflora: thank you
	🥁 10:00pm chresti: Oh yeah coel, he'll listen to the rest for sure
