	3:04pm Tony Coulter: Hey, hey, Yvang ! Doug! Uncle Michael! Nick! Dead Again! James! Hopey! Yay!
	3:05pm Miles: I'm listening to your show but I'm watching Blackpink.
	3:05pm Tony Coulter: I have only seen a small percent of the movies featured today -- but I did just finish watching all 12 seasons of Mannix.
	3:05pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Miles!
	3:06pm Miles: Groovy show!
	3:07pm Dean: Honestly? All of Mannix? That's quite a feat.
	3:07pm sim: This more finger wagging than hip shaking.
	🥁 3:08pm listener james from westwood: So when Clay does that "MANNIX" drop-in, that now speaks to you personally!
	3:08pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Dean! Yep, for real. One episode a day during dinner.
	3:08pm Uncle Michael: I still have a thing for Peggy. Why didn't Joe?
	3:08pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Sim!
	3:09pm Tony Coulter: @ Uncle Michael: Them getting married would have been the perfect way to conclude the series, fer sure.
	3:11pm Dean: I was into Casey on the disappointingly yet aptly titled Mission: Impossible.
	🥁 3:11pm listener james from westwood: Midnight Express!!
	3:12pm Tony Coulter: Sounds very Karftwerk-y in parts....
	🥁 3:12pm listener james from westwood: This was on one of my earliest mixtapes, of mostly synth pieces. John Carpenter and Harold Faltermeyer got a lot of oxide. This track closed Side B.
	3:12pm Hopey Sockmonkey: YES. This Giorgio Moroder track is an absolute classic. I include it on every disco playlist.
	3:13pm Dean: Moroder's Einzelgänger from '75 even more so.
	🥁 3:13pm listener james from westwood: A local (Northeast) sports TV network used it as its bumper music for many years in the 80s.
	🥁 3:14pm Bas NL: Hi Tony and party people! Woaa... Mororder!
	3:15pm Tony Coulter: Hey, hey, Bas!
	3:15pm Miles: This makes me wish my albums were in order, so I could listen to this when I get home.
	3:16pm Sem: Hiya, Disco Tony, and all.
	3:16pm Asheville Jon: always awesome to hear GIORGIO!!!!!
	3:17pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, hiya, Sem & Jon!!
	3:17pm Asheville Jon: hi Tony. lookin forward to the disco party!
	🥁 3:19pm Bas NL: stumbling around the dance floor in cool sunglasses
	3:20pm Tony Coulter: Those cool sunglasses will come in handy for this track.....
	3:21pm Nick S.: Oh, shit, my backbone slipped!
	🥁 3:21pm listener james from westwood: Holy shit, my guess was this was the Truck Turner soundtrack, from having heard that one bit used in Kill Bill Vol. 1, and BABOOM—Ike in the house!
	3:21pm Dean: Is "Truck Turner" syntactically parallel to "Taxi Driver"?
	3:22pm Tony Coulter: Yep, all he does is turn trucks, in circles.
	3:23pm Dean: "They say this cat Truck is a bad mother... (Use your signal!)"
	3:24pm Brian in UK: Go Tony.
	3:24pm Tony Coulter: Brian! Heya!
	3:25pm Brian in UK: Dean or the more painful Pile Driver.
	3:27pm Dean: Any relation to Mini Driver?
	3:28pm still b/p: If you cross the syntactical parallel, it's considered an act of war.
	3:28pm Dean: There's syntax and there's sin tax.
	3:29pm Tony Coulter: Ahoy, still b/p!
	3:29pm Brian in UK: Well if they did legalise the oldest game, you can be sure it would be taxed.
	3:30pm Dean: And for some, taxing.
	3:30pm Brian in UK: Taxiing is the only word with two ii's that I know apart from skiing.
	3:31pm Doug Schulkind: There's a great song by The Ex called "Buildance" that includes the sound of a pile driver. I used to use it as a talkover track. Why'd I stop, I wonder?
	3:32pm Brian in UK: Doug, guess that Test Department might have used one.
	3:36pm HollyRT: Hey, Tony, hey all. Great show so far. I am a HUGE library music/soundtrack/weirdo TV theme junkie
	3:36pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Holly! Thanks! Glad you're here!
	3:38pm Uncle Michael: OK, I got lunch. Now I can enjoy the party.
	3:39pm Tony Coulter: Bon Appétit!
	3:39pm Dean: waterskiing graffitiing safariing watusiing bansaiing
	3:40pm still b/p: Hey, There, from Pajama Game "...Love never made a fool of you You used to be two i's..."
	3:40pm Cmurtha: Discotime
	3:41pm Tony Coulter: @ Dean: That's what you're doing right now?
	3:41pm Tony Coulter: Hola, Cmurtha!
	3:42pm Dean: Social distanciing, too.
	3:43pm Sem: That's the iciing on the cake.
	🥁 3:43pm Bas NL: R-e-t-r-oooo D-i-s-c-ooooo!
	3:47pm Tony Coulter: Has anyone seen Solomon King, the film? I'm sorta curious about it, based on the soundtrack.
	3:50pm Doug Schulkind: I know of four separate musicians named Solomon King, a blues guy from the 1930s, a blues/R&B guy from the '50s (sometimes spelled King Soloman), a '60s soul/funk guy from California, and the singing preacher who sang with the Glory Bound Singers.
	3:51pm Tony Coulter: Strangely, Michael Kamen (just on) was in the New York Rock Ensemble.
	3:52pm Brian in UK: I diispare.
	3:53pm dutchtheo: Hi Tony and sound trackers, score core galore!
	3:53pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, dutchtheo!
	3:56pm TomDash: Hey wait, this isn't prog or experimental Euro electronics! Oh, wait, but it IS groovy nonetheless...
	3:58pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Tom!
	4:00pm Tony Coulter: Figured I'd try on a different hat today -- my pimp hat, maybe.
	4:00pm TomDash: I dig...
	4:01pm chresti: PSYCHEDELIC FORK DISCO!
	4:02pm Tony Coulter: Chresti! Yay!
	4:06pm Tony Coulter: If anyone has seen any of the movies we're hearing soundtracks from today, I'd be curious to get a thumbs up/thumbs down. I've only seen a handful.
	4:07pm Tim in TN: Tony, I'm really enjoying this. Thank you!
	4:10pm Tony Coulter: Glad to hear it, Tim! And ... welcome!
	4:11pm Tony Coulter: I have seen "Electra Glide in Blue" (on now) -- it's a pretty good film, actually.
	4:11pm Dean: Let me know when you play soundtrack music from Blazing Saddles. I've seen that. Thumbs up.
	4:13pm Dean: Guercio famously produced many of Chicago's albums.
	4:14pm Tony Coulter: ... and .. he was briefly in the Mothers of Invention!
	4:15pm Tony Coulter: OK: It's slow dancing time.
	4:16pm Dean: News to me: he also produced tracks for Firesign Theatre.
	4:17pm Dean: And he had a birthday not a week ago.
	4:19pm Tony Coulter: Damn. And I didn't get him anything.
	4:20pm Dean: I can't tell you how many of my birthdays he neglected.
	4:21pm Tony Coulter: Me too. What a bastard.
	🥁 4:24pm WR: I get to party for 15 minutes, gotta make it count.
	4:25pm Dean: Francis Lai, on the other hand, was always forthcoming with, at the very least, a Starbucks of Amazon card, sometimes an autographed OST LP, and a lovely card.
	4:25pm Dean: ^or Amazon
	4:25pm Tony Coulter: Hey, WR! Work it!
	🥁 4:28pm WR: You got my toes tapping as I munch on my microwaved leftover stew.
	🥁 4:29pm listener james from westwood: Curtis!
	4:30pm Doug Schulkind: Such sweetness!
	4:30pm Hopey Sockmonkey: The Superfly soundtrack is so good.
	4:30pm Dean: I played Snoop Doggy Dogg's first album yesterday for my son, wherein a sample appears from this Mayfield track!
	4:32pm Tony Coulter: There'll be more from the Superfly OST later on ... it's the best.
	4:33pm TomDash: love this deep groove, sliding a psych in there even, nice!
	4:34pm Tony Coulter: Snoop Doggy Dogg and the Red Baron.
	4:37pm Uncle Michael: The Snoop Snoop Song (It's In His Kizzle)
	4:39pm Dean: Leave Snoop alone!
	4:52pm Tony Coulter: The female vocalist on this Morricone track is the great Edda dell'Orso.
	4:58pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey Tony! Is Ella dell'Orso the singer on the "Danger: Diabolik" soundtrack, too?
	4:59pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Wendy!! Yes, she is!
	5:00pm Wendy del Formaggio: I thought her voice sounded familiar. I love love love the "Danger: Diabolik" soundtrack, esp "Deep Down" and "Underwater Wah-Wah."
	5:03pm Tony Coulter: That's a great movie too.
	🥁 5:04pm WR: Thank you for music. It's a solid groove.
	5:05pm Tony Coulter: You're welcome! Glad you're enjoying it!
	5:05pm Wendy del Formaggio: Tony, I was just thinking about that, in fact! When Morricone got that Academy Award in, what was it, 2006 or 2007, either Film Forum or MOMA showed a bunch of movies scored by Morricone. I went to see that one, and "Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion" with my housemate, who was from Italy. It was a great time.
	5:07pm Tony Coulter: "Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion" is really, really good too -- though totally different, of course!
	5:09pm Wendy del Formaggio: Indeed! And the score to "Investigation" is so cool. I recently listened to some of Nuova Consonanza, and could definitely hear some influences in there, especially in Morricone's use of the telephone sounds in "Investigation."
	5:11pm Tony Coulter: Yeah, Morricone's music had such a broad range -- so much more than the Spaghetti Western stuff, as great as that is.
	5:13pm Wendy del Formaggio: Ooh, the "Superfly" soundtrack! I've loved this since I was a teenager. Recently I gave it a much closer listen, now that I'm no longer a teenager (well, chronologically speaking) and I was struck by the richness and complexity of Mayfield's compositions. Such beautiful music. And funky as fuck.
	5:18pm Tony Coulter: Agreed. There's way more depth than you'd necessarily expect from a blaxploitation soundtrack.
	5:22pm Wendy del Formaggio: Same with the soundtrack to Shaft. Once you get beyond the gimmicky hit single, the rest of the songs are stunning. Isaac Hayes created a fantastic score. Lotsa good bed music on there, FYI!
	5:27pm Tony Coulter: I kinda collect ridiculous lounge covers of the Shaft theme -- tho I won't be dipping into those today.
	5:31pm Tony Coulter: And talking of Curtis Mayfield.....
	5:31pm Wendy del Formaggio: Tony, that's awesome. Will you play a bunch of them during an upcoming show?
	5:32pm Tony Coulter: Maybe not upcoming -- but at some point!
	5:34pm northguineahills: Curtis!
	🥁 5:35pm listener james from westwood: Wanna be speeding after a perp up and down the hills of San Francisco to this Hayes track!
	5:36pm Tony Coulter: Heya, NGH!
	5:51pm Sem: Thx, Tony. My hips need to rest. See ya later.
	5:54pm Tony Coulter: See you, Sem! Thanks for stopping by!
	6:17pm chresti: I was an extra for the movie Rollercoaster
	6:18pm Tony Coulter: For realz?!? Do tell.
	6:20pm Tony Coulter: What did you do?
	6:21pm chresti: Well, we were in a crowd at Magic Mountain, we went the day Sparks was there. I remember seeing George Segal walking by in some scene.
	6:22pm chresti: I mostly remember standing around and smoking cigarettes, drinking cola, it was hot..
	6:25pm chresti: I think I made 20 dollars that day.
	6:26pm Tony Coulter: I was in two movies -- but neither ever came out. At least you made it to the big screen.
	6:29pm chresti: Who knows if I made the final cut, I never watched it. I also was in an audience scene for the Blues Brothers movie.
	6:34pm chresti: Thanks Tony, going to go jump in the shower!
	6:34pm Tony Coulter: See you!
	6:35pm Santos L. Halper: This has been my favorite Drummer Disco yet, thanks Tony!
	6:36pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Santos! Thanks! I'm flattered.
	6:39pm Dean: That insufferable iPhone default ringtone just sounded on my wife's phone, and it was in key and on beat with this Piccioni! I hate Apple with every fiber of my being and diet, but sometimes the planets align like that and I treasure the experience.
	🥁 6:43pm Yvang: Apparently "Female Animal" is not a documentary...
	🥁 6:43pm listener james from westwood: I'm glad I'm not the only one to clicky-star this ep, b/c it's been an absolute keeper!
	6:44pm Tony Coulter: @ Yvang: Ha! Nope ... it's a bit naughty.
	6:45pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, James! Glad you approved!
	🥁 6:45pm Yvang: What James said.
	6:46pm Dean: Dang, supposedly this dude was in The Mothers, too.
	6:47pm Tony Coulter: He was! It's been a Mothers kind of day
	6:47pm Dean: I think Zappa is playing on this track.
	6:48pm Dean: Nope, I'm wrong. He plays on a later Simmons album.
	6:52pm Tony Coulter: Now, here's a movie I've seen ("The Trip") -- I imagine many of you have as well.
	6:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'ma catch some Hippienoise ! ...& I see you have a nice graphic for Leo time...
	6:52pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Rabbit!
	6:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So Buddy Miles ...& Bloomfield ??
	6:55pm Tony Coulter: Yep!
	🥁 6:56pm Bas NL: Thanks for the four hours of Discotheque goodies Tony! Super show!!
	6:56pm northguineahills: Thanks, Tony!
	6:57pm northguineahills: Stay safe from the teargas tornados in the Rose City....!
	6:57pm Dean: Sublime. The entire four hour program never once flagged. Except right at the end there, but in a good way.
	6:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Peter Fonda said he tried to make The Trip more on point but not so much...
	🥁 6:58pm Yvang: Loved it! Thanks Tony!
	6:58pm northguineahills: @Dean: snert
	🥁 6:58pm listener james from westwood: DAMN RIGHT
	6:58pm Dean: Sorry, can't resist.
	6:58pm Tony Coulter: Thanks for showing up, everybody!!

	3:08pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Dean! Yep, for real. One episode a day during dinner.
	3:08pm Uncle Michael: I still have a thing for Peggy. Why didn't Joe?
	3:08pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Sim!
	3:09pm Tony Coulter: @ Uncle Michael: Them getting married would have been the perfect way to conclude the series, fer sure.
	3:11pm Dean: I was into Casey on the disappointingly yet aptly titled Mission: Impossible.
	🥁 3:11pm listener james from westwood: Midnight Express!!
	3:12pm Tony Coulter: Sounds very Karftwerk-y in parts....
	🥁 3:12pm listener james from westwood: This was on one of my earliest mixtapes, of mostly synth pieces. John Carpenter and Harold Faltermeyer got a lot of oxide. This track closed Side B.
	3:12pm Hopey Sockmonkey: YES. This Giorgio Moroder track is an absolute classic. I include it on every disco playlist.
	3:13pm Dean: Moroder's Einzelgänger from '75 even more so.
	🥁 3:13pm listener james from westwood: A local (Northeast) sports TV network used it as its bumper music for many years in the 80s.
	🥁 3:14pm Bas NL: Hi Tony and party people! Woaa... Mororder!
	3:15pm Tony Coulter: Hey, hey, Bas!
	3:15pm Miles: This makes me wish my albums were in order, so I could listen to this when I get home.
	3:16pm Sem: Hiya, Disco Tony, and all.
	3:16pm Asheville Jon: always awesome to hear GIORGIO!!!!!
	3:17pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, hiya, Sem & Jon!!
	3:17pm Asheville Jon: hi Tony. lookin forward to the disco party!
	🥁 3:19pm Bas NL: stumbling around the dance floor in cool sunglasses
	3:20pm Tony Coulter: Those cool sunglasses will come in handy for this track.....
	3:21pm Nick S.: Oh, shit, my backbone slipped!
	🥁 3:21pm listener james from westwood: Holy shit, my guess was this was the Truck Turner soundtrack, from having heard that one bit used in Kill Bill Vol. 1, and BABOOM—Ike in the house!
	3:21pm Dean: Is "Truck Turner" syntactically parallel to "Taxi Driver"?
	3:22pm Tony Coulter: Yep, all he does is turn trucks, in circles.
	3:23pm Dean: "They say this cat Truck is a bad mother... (Use your signal!)"
	3:24pm Brian in UK: Go Tony.
	3:24pm Tony Coulter: Brian! Heya!
	3:25pm Brian in UK: Dean or the more painful Pile Driver.
	3:27pm Dean: Any relation to Mini Driver?
	3:28pm still b/p: If you cross the syntactical parallel, it's considered an act of war.
	3:28pm Dean: There's syntax and there's sin tax.
	3:29pm Tony Coulter: Ahoy, still b/p!
	3:29pm Brian in UK: Well if they did legalise the oldest game, you can be sure it would be taxed.
	3:30pm Dean: And for some, taxing.
	3:30pm Brian in UK: Taxiing is the only word with two ii's that I know apart from skiing.
	3:31pm Doug Schulkind: There's a great song by The Ex called "Buildance" that includes the sound of a pile driver. I used to use it as a talkover track. Why'd I stop, I wonder?
	3:32pm Brian in UK: Doug, guess that Test Department might have used one.
	3:36pm HollyRT: Hey, Tony, hey all. Great show so far. I am a HUGE library music/soundtrack/weirdo TV theme junkie
	3:36pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Holly! Thanks! Glad you're here!
	3:38pm Uncle Michael: OK, I got lunch. Now I can enjoy the party.
	3:39pm Tony Coulter: Bon Appétit!
	3:39pm Dean: waterskiing graffitiing safariing watusiing bansaiing
	3:40pm still b/p: Hey, There, from Pajama Game "...Love never made a fool of you You used to be two i's..."
	3:40pm Cmurtha: Discotime
	3:41pm Tony Coulter: @ Dean: That's what you're doing right now?
	3:41pm Tony Coulter: Hola, Cmurtha!
	3:42pm Dean: Social distanciing, too.
	3:43pm Sem: That's the iciing on the cake.
	🥁 3:43pm Bas NL: R-e-t-r-oooo D-i-s-c-ooooo!
	3:47pm Tony Coulter: Has anyone seen Solomon King, the film? I'm sorta curious about it, based on the soundtrack.
	3:50pm Doug Schulkind: I know of four separate musicians named Solomon King, a blues guy from the 1930s, a blues/R&B guy from the '50s (sometimes spelled King Soloman), a '60s soul/funk guy from California, and the singing preacher who sang with the Glory Bound Singers.
	3:51pm Tony Coulter: Strangely, Michael Kamen (just on) was in the New York Rock Ensemble.
	3:52pm Brian in UK: I diispare.
	3:53pm dutchtheo: Hi Tony and sound trackers, score core galore!
	3:53pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, dutchtheo!
	3:56pm TomDash: Hey wait, this isn't prog or experimental Euro electronics! Oh, wait, but it IS groovy nonetheless...
	3:58pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Tom!
	4:00pm Tony Coulter: Figured I'd try on a different hat today -- my pimp hat, maybe.
	4:00pm TomDash: I dig...
	4:01pm chresti: PSYCHEDELIC FORK DISCO!
	4:02pm Tony Coulter: Chresti! Yay!
	4:06pm Tony Coulter: If anyone has seen any of the movies we're hearing soundtracks from today, I'd be curious to get a thumbs up/thumbs down. I've only seen a handful.
	4:07pm Tim in TN: Tony, I'm really enjoying this. Thank you!
	4:10pm Tony Coulter: Glad to hear it, Tim! And ... welcome!
	4:11pm Tony Coulter: I have seen "Electra Glide in Blue" (on now) -- it's a pretty good film, actually.
	4:11pm Dean: Let me know when you play soundtrack music from Blazing Saddles. I've seen that. Thumbs up.
	4:13pm Dean: Guercio famously produced many of Chicago's albums.
	4:14pm Tony Coulter: ... and .. he was briefly in the Mothers of Invention!
	4:15pm Tony Coulter: OK: It's slow dancing time.
	4:16pm Dean: News to me: he also produced tracks for Firesign Theatre.
	4:17pm Dean: And he had a birthday not a week ago.
	4:19pm Tony Coulter: Damn. And I didn't get him anything.
	4:20pm Dean: I can't tell you how many of my birthdays he neglected.
	4:21pm Tony Coulter: Me too. What a bastard.
	🥁 4:24pm WR: I get to party for 15 minutes, gotta make it count.
	4:25pm Dean: Francis Lai, on the other hand, was always forthcoming with, at the very least, a Starbucks of Amazon card, sometimes an autographed OST LP, and a lovely card.
	4:25pm Dean: ^or Amazon
	4:25pm Tony Coulter: Hey, WR! Work it!
	🥁 4:28pm WR: You got my toes tapping as I munch on my microwaved leftover stew.
	🥁 4:29pm listener james from westwood: Curtis!
	4:30pm Doug Schulkind: Such sweetness!
	4:30pm Hopey Sockmonkey: The Superfly soundtrack is so good.
	4:30pm Dean: I played Snoop Doggy Dogg's first album yesterday for my son, wherein a sample appears from this Mayfield track!
	4:32pm Tony Coulter: There'll be more from the Superfly OST later on ... it's the best.
	4:33pm TomDash: love this deep groove, sliding a psych in there even, nice!
	4:34pm Tony Coulter: Snoop Doggy Dogg and the Red Baron.
	4:37pm Uncle Michael: The Snoop Snoop Song (It's In His Kizzle)
	4:39pm Dean: Leave Snoop alone!
	4:52pm Tony Coulter: The female vocalist on this Morricone track is the great Edda dell'Orso.
	4:58pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey Tony! Is Ella dell'Orso the singer on the "Danger: Diabolik" soundtrack, too?
	4:59pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Wendy!! Yes, she is!
	5:00pm Wendy del Formaggio: I thought her voice sounded familiar. I love love love the "Danger: Diabolik" soundtrack, esp "Deep Down" and "Underwater Wah-Wah."
	5:03pm Tony Coulter: That's a great movie too.
	🥁 5:04pm WR: Thank you for music. It's a solid groove.
	5:05pm Tony Coulter: You're welcome! Glad you're enjoying it!
	5:05pm Wendy del Formaggio: Tony, I was just thinking about that, in fact! When Morricone got that Academy Award in, what was it, 2006 or 2007, either Film Forum or MOMA showed a bunch of movies scored by Morricone. I went to see that one, and "Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion" with my housemate, who was from Italy. It was a great time.
	5:07pm Tony Coulter: "Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion" is really, really good too -- though totally different, of course!
	5:09pm Wendy del Formaggio: Indeed! And the score to "Investigation" is so cool. I recently listened to some of Nuova Consonanza, and could definitely hear some influences in there, especially in Morricone's use of the telephone sounds in "Investigation."
	5:11pm Tony Coulter: Yeah, Morricone's music had such a broad range -- so much more than the Spaghetti Western stuff, as great as that is.
	5:13pm Wendy del Formaggio: Ooh, the "Superfly" soundtrack! I've loved this since I was a teenager. Recently I gave it a much closer listen, now that I'm no longer a teenager (well, chronologically speaking) and I was struck by the richness and complexity of Mayfield's compositions. Such beautiful music. And funky as fuck.
	5:18pm Tony Coulter: Agreed. There's way more depth than you'd necessarily expect from a blaxploitation soundtrack.
	5:22pm Wendy del Formaggio: Same with the soundtrack to Shaft. Once you get beyond the gimmicky hit single, the rest of the songs are stunning. Isaac Hayes created a fantastic score. Lotsa good bed music on there, FYI!
	5:27pm Tony Coulter: I kinda collect ridiculous lounge covers of the Shaft theme -- tho I won't be dipping into those today.
	5:31pm Tony Coulter: And talking of Curtis Mayfield.....
	5:31pm Wendy del Formaggio: Tony, that's awesome. Will you play a bunch of them during an upcoming show?
	5:32pm Tony Coulter: Maybe not upcoming -- but at some point!
	5:34pm northguineahills: Curtis!
	🥁 5:35pm listener james from westwood: Wanna be speeding after a perp up and down the hills of San Francisco to this Hayes track!
	5:36pm Tony Coulter: Heya, NGH!
	5:51pm Sem: Thx, Tony. My hips need to rest. See ya later.
	5:54pm Tony Coulter: See you, Sem! Thanks for stopping by!
	6:17pm chresti: I was an extra for the movie Rollercoaster
	6:18pm Tony Coulter: For realz?!? Do tell.
	6:20pm Tony Coulter: What did you do?
	6:21pm chresti: Well, we were in a crowd at Magic Mountain, we went the day Sparks was there. I remember seeing George Segal walking by in some scene.
	6:22pm chresti: I mostly remember standing around and smoking cigarettes, drinking cola, it was hot..
	6:25pm chresti: I think I made 20 dollars that day.
	6:26pm Tony Coulter: I was in two movies -- but neither ever came out. At least you made it to the big screen.
	6:29pm chresti: Who knows if I made the final cut, I never watched it. I also was in an audience scene for the Blues Brothers movie.
	6:34pm chresti: Thanks Tony, going to go jump in the shower!
	6:34pm Tony Coulter: See you!
	6:35pm Santos L. Halper: This has been my favorite Drummer Disco yet, thanks Tony!
	6:36pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Santos! Thanks! I'm flattered.
	6:39pm Dean: That insufferable iPhone default ringtone just sounded on my wife's phone, and it was in key and on beat with this Piccioni! I hate Apple with every fiber of my being and diet, but sometimes the planets align like that and I treasure the experience.
	🥁 6:43pm Yvang: Apparently "Female Animal" is not a documentary...
	🥁 6:43pm listener james from westwood: I'm glad I'm not the only one to clicky-star this ep, b/c it's been an absolute keeper!
	6:44pm Tony Coulter: @ Yvang: Ha! Nope ... it's a bit naughty.
	6:45pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, James! Glad you approved!
	🥁 6:45pm Yvang: What James said.
	6:46pm Dean: Dang, supposedly this dude was in The Mothers, too.
	6:47pm Tony Coulter: He was! It's been a Mothers kind of day
	6:47pm Dean: I think Zappa is playing on this track.
	6:48pm Dean: Nope, I'm wrong. He plays on a later Simmons album.
	6:52pm Tony Coulter: Now, here's a movie I've seen ("The Trip") -- I imagine many of you have as well.
	6:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'ma catch some Hippienoise ! ...& I see you have a nice graphic for Leo time...
	6:52pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Rabbit!
	6:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So Buddy Miles ...& Bloomfield ??
	6:55pm Tony Coulter: Yep!
	🥁 6:56pm Bas NL: Thanks for the four hours of Discotheque goodies Tony! Super show!!
	6:56pm northguineahills: Thanks, Tony!
	6:57pm northguineahills: Stay safe from the teargas tornados in the Rose City....!
	6:57pm Dean: Sublime. The entire four hour program never once flagged. Except right at the end there, but in a good way.
	6:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Peter Fonda said he tried to make The Trip more on point but not so much...
	🥁 6:58pm Yvang: Loved it! Thanks Tony!
	6:58pm northguineahills: @Dean: snert
	🥁 6:58pm listener james from westwood: DAMN RIGHT
	6:58pm Dean: Sorry, can't resist.
	6:58pm Tony Coulter: Thanks for showing up, everybody!!
