	🥁 ♥ 3:26pm Funky16Corners: Hey holland oats! Thanks!

	🥁 ♥ 3:26pm Funky16Corners: Hey Alvy!
	🥁 ♥ 3:26pm Brian in UK: Last live act I heard/saw was Sam Baker, bizzarely in a Methodist chapel in Worcester in Feb '20. What a story he has to tell.

	🥁 ♥ 3:28pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Michael 98145: cool tidbit! "Texas Czechs" has a nice ring to it
	🥁 ♥ 3:29pm Funky16Corners: They're like Corn Chex but made from cactus
	♥ 3:29pm Michael 98145: Texas -is- about the same size as France ..
	♥ 3:30pm Michael 98145: Czechs Mix
	🥁 ♥ 3:31pm Funky16Corners: Kit and the Outlaws from Dallas, TX
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm WR: Sheee it. Texas was my home for about 25 years. It's been longer than that since I left. And after Mouse and the Traps, all new to me Texas bands.
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: Kitchen Cinq from Amarillo, TX, though they went to Cali to record for Lee Hazlewood
	♥ 3:34pm Michael 98145: Regional music was fun in the day
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: Hey WR! Mouse and the Traps and the Elevators had minor national hits
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): ah, thanks for the Lee Hazelwood tip, I thought the name seemed familiar. Great set!
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Funky16Corners: @Michael - Seriously. You can't have regional scenes like this today.
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Funky16Corners: Thx Baba!
	🥁 ♥ 3:36pm Funky16Corners: This is young Delbert McClinton!
	♥ 3:36pm holland oats: "lenny bruce"? hmmm

	♥ 3:37pm holland oats: the very end of codine, i swear i heard it
	♥ 3:38pm TDK60: Yes, I heard it too, H. Oats.
	🥁 ♥ 3:38pm Funky16Corners: I'll have to go back and check that out
	♥ 3:38pm holland oats: so i'm not crazy, at least no crazier than tdk
	🥁 ♥ 3:39pm doctorjazz: Got to see Johnny Winter (with brother Edgar at the old Fillmore East), and Stevie Ray Vaughan, that other Texas guitar legend (at N. O. Jazzfest).
	♥ 3:40pm Michael 98145: She's About a Mover !!
	🥁 ♥ 3:40pm Funky16Corners: Never saw the Winters, but saw SRV four times early on. He was amazing.
	🥁 ♥ 3:43pm WR: You could have also selected from several Doug Sahm recordings before the Sir Doug Quintet. Augie Meyers was major inspiration for my choosing Farfisa as my garage band instrument of choice.
	🥁 ♥ 3:44pm Funky16Corners: There are a couple of comps of pre-SDQ stuff
	🥁 ♥ 3:45pm Brian in UK: The Texas Tornados do the job.
	🥁 ♥ 3:46pm Funky16Corners: El Paso, TX represent!
	♥ 3:48pm Michael 98145: Cripes. Lotsa great tracks here.
	🥁 ♥ 3:49pm Funky16Corners: Lots more coming!
	♥ 3:49pm holland oats: this man has a collection
	3:49pm bradford: all killer - no filler
	3:49pm still b/p: Long ago Superman. Had no idea.
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm Funky16Corners: The OG from 1969! These guys were from Houston.
	3:50pm Andres: Hi, Larry! Tuned in and looking up recipes. Chiming in for The Clique!!
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm Funky16Corners: Hi Andres!
	🥁 ♥ 3:51pm Erica: Superman 1978 theme plays in my head
	3:52pm still b/p: When I was in the midwest, college age visitors to Houston had only praise and eager interest for the city. When I was in West Texas, many people had only disdain and knocks for Houston.
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm Funky16Corners: Texas is big enough to harbor regional prejudices against other parts of itself
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm Funky16Corners: This was actually a minor hit in 1968
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm WR: As a kid I didn't know Bobby Fuller was from Texas but I do remember when I saw the band on TV in the prison cell set.
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Funky16Corners: I wish he'd lived longer to make more music. Talented guy.
	3:55pm bradford: ...let that guitar fall in
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Erica: The Tighten Up!
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Jeff Ash: Man, been looking for Archie Bell records. They apparently don't exist in Wisconsin.
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Jeff Ash: Too far from Houston, I guess.
	3:56pm Andres: Tighten Up. So great!!
	♥ 3:57pm Michael 98145: Wish i had some of these 45s
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm doctorjazz: I'm old, but not old enough to have seen Blind Lemon Jefferson.
	♥ 4:00pm Michael 98145: I -was- fortunate enough to have seen Lightnin' Hopkins
	🥁 ♥ 4:01pm doctorjazz: Old enough to have seen Lightnin' Hopkins, but want smart enough...
	🥁 ♥ 4:01pm WR: You cracked me up doctorjazz. Since Jefferson died in 1929 the opportunity to see him passed me by too.
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: BTW It'll be Easter Everywhere this Sunday...
	♥ 4:04pm holland oats: blind melon on the other hand...
	♥ 4:06pm Michael 98145: .. and Passover April 15 - April 23
	♥ 4:06pm StringOFperils: Hello, Testifiers!
	🥁 ♥ 4:07pm Funky16Corners: Which reminds me that I have to hit the supermarket and get me some'o them Manischewitz macaroons
	🥁 ♥ 4:07pm Funky16Corners: Hey String!
	♥ 4:07pm Michael 98145: ... and Orthodox Easter on April 24th
	🥁 ♥ 4:07pm Funky16Corners: Now would be a great time to swallow some acid, if you have it handy
	🥁 ♥ 4:08pm WR: Sorry Larry, still working. No LSD during office hours.
	🥁 ♥ 4:09pm Funky16Corners: Roky plays organ and harmonica on this freakout
	🥁 ♥ 4:10pm Funky16Corners: I fully endorse consumption of psychedelics in the workplace. I can't say it works for everyone, though.
	4:11pm still b/p: "Bring Your Blotter To Work" Day.
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm Funky16Corners: Sneak some mushrooms into a peanut butter and jelly sandwich
	♥ 4:16pm Michael 98145: (From The Guardian Live feed at 21:09 BST (GMT+1): 'Damaged Russian warship Moskva has sunk - Russian ministry Russia’s defence ministry has put out a statement to say its Moskva missile cruise ship has sunk in the Black Sea off southern Ukraine. It’s still unclear whether it was hit by Ukrainian weaponry. The ship is believed to have experienced significant damage and was thought to be heading to Sevastopol, Crimea, before it succumbed. Russia earlier claimed it had experienced damage as a result of an ammunition fire on board. Crew were evacuated.)
	♥ 4:16pm holland oats: eating babies for nourishment 😮
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm Funky16Corners: Only free range babies, none of that caged, fast food stuff.
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm WR: Wow man, way way out with Booker Ervin. Don't know if I've seen the Pacific Jazz Ervin release.
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: Blue Note reissued it in the late 80s or early 90s
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm doctorjazz: Love this Giuffre (love his stuff in general, and this is amazing)
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm Funky16Corners: This is the group from Jazz On a Summers Day, Giuffre, Bob Brookmeyer on valve trombone and Jim Hall on guitar
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm doctorjazz: Don't think I have this live version, believe there is a studio version I do have.
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm Funky16Corners: This is from a bootleg CD I bought more than 20 years ago
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm doctorjazz: Ahhh....
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Funky16Corners: Fresh Sounds was a Spanish label that put out a bunch of unofficial live stuff. Oddly enough the local Borders used to carry a lot of it
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm WR: Didn't know of Giuffre's Texas roots.
	♥ 4:27pm Little Danny: you can a sense a watershed jazz moment within just a few seconds of hearing this opening bassline
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: Giuffre was from Dallas. He graduated from North Texas State which had/has a solid jazz program
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: @Danny - Hearing the Coleman Quartet stuff was a brain rewiring moment for me
	♥ 4:29pm Little Danny: me too larry :)
	♥ 4:30pm Discotech Underground: Good afternoon Larry and fellow testifiers!
	🥁 ♥ 4:30pm Funky16Corners: Kip!
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm WR: I was a drop out from NTSU. Twice.
	♥ 4:31pm Discotech Underground: Roky and Clementine Hall!
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm Funky16Corners: Make sure to tune in to Kip and Discothech Underground at 5PM! wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm Funky16Corners: @WR - I think Bob Dorough was an alumnus as well
	♥ 4:32pm Little Danny: wow, WR, i knew about your texas tenure but hadn't known you spent time at NTSU
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm Erica: Hey Kip.
	♥ 4:33pm Little Danny: NTSU jazz lab LPs are texas budget bin staples
	🥁 ♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: I think Lyle Mays too
	♥ 4:33pm Discotech Underground: Hey Erica!
	🥁 ♥ 4:35pm Funky16Corners: BTW this Mickey Newbury album is brilliant.
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm WR: LD, I'm sure if you check with NTSU that they would find no sign of me being there.
	♥ 4:37pm Discotech Underground: Sounds like he's channeling Nashville Skyline era Dylan.
	♥ 4:37pm Alvy Singer: @Larry...Saw Roky Erickson at Webster hall in May of 2010. All I kept saying to myself was, "there he is, there he is."
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm Funky16Corners: Recorded in Nashville around the same time, with many of the same guys
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm Funky16Corners: @Alvy - I never got to see Roky. much to my regret
	♥ 4:40pm Discotech Underground: I saw Roky at some hole in the wall club in New Orleans sometime in the 80's when he was still living with his doting mother, Evelyn. The show was excellent even though he just sort of stood there while he played and sang.
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Funky16Corners: Another great musician destroyed by drugs, repressive law enforcement and improper mental health treatment
	♥ 4:43pm Michael 98145: many stories like that
	♥ 4:43pm Michael 98145: SRV !!!
	♥ 4:45pm Alvy Singer: @Larry..Makes you wonder if Townes was really resigned to his fate.
	🥁 ♥ 4:45pm Funky16Corners: TVZ gave off an air of oncoming doom from the very beginning.
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: I saw SRV do this from like four feet away at a club called the Royal Manor North in North Brunswick, NJ. Epic.
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm doctorjazz: SRV has so much Jimi in him(but still so SRV)!
	♥ 4:48pm Alvy Singer: Even the success of Pancho and Lefty never fazed him. His songs were so autobiographical.
	♥ 4:48pm Discotech Underground: SRV played his next to last concert in Kalamazoo at the fairgrounds which is 25 miles from where I am sitting right now.
	🥁 ♥ 4:49pm Funky16Corners: The last place was in Wisconsin, right?
	♥ 4:50pm Discotech Underground: Yes, an outdoor venue called Alpine Valley. It was like the next day after the Kzoo show.
	🥁 ♥ 4:50pm doctorjazz: Love Townes, old enough to have gotten to see him a couple of times.
	♥ 4:52pm StringOFperils: Me too. Townes was one strange wonderful character.
	♥ 4:52pm Discotech Underground: This Charley Pride song is a guilty pleasure.
	🥁 ♥ 4:53pm Erica: And now we're deep in the ❤ of Texas.
	🥁 ♥ 4:53pm doctorjazz: Almost done, fun show, thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:53pm D Rok: I've really been really digging the show today, then you go and cap it off with some Charley Pride. Perfection!
	🥁 ♥ 4:53pm Funky16Corners: Nothing guilty about it! Sir Doug did a great version of this, too.
	♥ 4:54pm theroth: Loved listening to this show and the rain. Thanks!
	🥁 ♥ 4:54pm WR: Discotech Underground: @4:40PM "I saw Roky at some hole in the wall club in New Orleans sometime in the 80's" Ha, I think I was there too.
	♥ 4:54pm Michael 98145: Oh, wow. That was fast! Thanks, again.
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Sem: Texas treasure trove! Thank you, Larry.
	♥ 4:55pm Discotech Underground: WR-I think it was called Tupelo's?
	♥ 4:55pm Alvy Singer: Greta show today Larry. Thank you.
	🥁 ♥ 4:56pm WR: Ah, I didn't go to the Tupulo's show. The one I went to was a club just off Esplanade below the French Quarter.
	4:57pm still b/p: That was a marginal "I'm goin' down the road" whistle from Charley, and not a real strong musical whistle. Did any studio or the Wrecking Crew or Muscle Shoals dudes have a ready whistler?
	🥁 ♥ 4:57pm Yvang: Superb show! Thanks Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:57pm Erica: Happy Easter holiday weekend everyone!
	♥ 4:57pm TDK60: Thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:57pm JR HTX: Thanks Larry, loved all the Texas mix. cheers~!
	🥁 ♥ 4:58pm Funky16Corners: Thank you all!
	♥ 4:58pm StringOFperils: Cool show Larry! Thanks!
	♥ 4:58pm Little Danny: thanks as always, Larry!!!
	♥ 4:58pm Michael 98145: p.s. 🇺🇦🌷
	🥁 ♥ 4:58pm Funky16Corners: Thanks guys!
	🥁 ♥ 4:58pm WR: Thank you Larry for bringing back old memories and introducing me to new ones too!
	🥁 ♥ 4:59pm Funky16Corners: My pleasure!

	🥁 ♥ 3:24pm Funky16Corners: Mouse and the Traps were, like Murphy and the Mob, from Tyler, TX
	♥ 3:25pm Michael 98145: David D's Subway just took us thru the Czech lands. Oddly enough, there are many Czech/Slovaks in TX.

	🥁 ♥ 3:26pm Funky16Corners: Hey holland oats! Thanks!
	♥ 3:26pm Alvy Singer: Hi Larry. Great, great stuff so far. Staggering to think of all the excellent music to come outta Texas.
	🥁 ♥ 3:26pm Funky16Corners: Hey Alvy!
	🥁 ♥ 3:26pm Brian in UK: Last live act I heard/saw was Sam Baker, bizzarely in a Methodist chapel in Worcester in Feb '20. What a story he has to tell.

	♥ 3:30pm Michael 98145: Czechs Mix
	🥁 ♥ 3:31pm Funky16Corners: Kit and the Outlaws from Dallas, TX
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm WR: Sheee it. Texas was my home for about 25 years. It's been longer than that since I left. And after Mouse and the Traps, all new to me Texas bands.
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: Kitchen Cinq from Amarillo, TX, though they went to Cali to record for Lee Hazlewood
	♥ 3:34pm Michael 98145: Regional music was fun in the day
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: Hey WR! Mouse and the Traps and the Elevators had minor national hits
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): ah, thanks for the Lee Hazelwood tip, I thought the name seemed familiar. Great set!
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Funky16Corners: @Michael - Seriously. You can't have regional scenes like this today.
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Funky16Corners: Thx Baba!
	🥁 ♥ 3:36pm Funky16Corners: This is young Delbert McClinton!
	♥ 3:36pm holland oats: "lenny bruce"? hmmm

	🥁 ♥ 3:38pm Funky16Corners: I'll have to go back and check that out
	♥ 3:38pm holland oats: so i'm not crazy, at least no crazier than tdk
	🥁 ♥ 3:39pm doctorjazz: Got to see Johnny Winter (with brother Edgar at the old Fillmore East), and Stevie Ray Vaughan, that other Texas guitar legend (at N. O. Jazzfest).
	♥ 3:40pm Michael 98145: She's About a Mover !!
	🥁 ♥ 3:40pm Funky16Corners: Never saw the Winters, but saw SRV four times early on. He was amazing.
	🥁 ♥ 3:43pm WR: You could have also selected from several Doug Sahm recordings before the Sir Doug Quintet. Augie Meyers was major inspiration for my choosing Farfisa as my garage band instrument of choice.
	🥁 ♥ 3:44pm Funky16Corners: There are a couple of comps of pre-SDQ stuff
	🥁 ♥ 3:45pm Brian in UK: The Texas Tornados do the job.
	🥁 ♥ 3:46pm Funky16Corners: El Paso, TX represent!
	♥ 3:48pm Michael 98145: Cripes. Lotsa great tracks here.
	🥁 ♥ 3:49pm Funky16Corners: Lots more coming!
	♥ 3:49pm holland oats: this man has a collection
	3:49pm bradford: all killer - no filler
	3:49pm still b/p: Long ago Superman. Had no idea.
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm Funky16Corners: The OG from 1969! These guys were from Houston.
	3:50pm Andres: Hi, Larry! Tuned in and looking up recipes. Chiming in for The Clique!!
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm Funky16Corners: Hi Andres!
	🥁 ♥ 3:51pm Erica: Superman 1978 theme plays in my head
	3:52pm still b/p: When I was in the midwest, college age visitors to Houston had only praise and eager interest for the city. When I was in West Texas, many people had only disdain and knocks for Houston.
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm Funky16Corners: Texas is big enough to harbor regional prejudices against other parts of itself
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm Funky16Corners: This was actually a minor hit in 1968
	🥁 ♥ 3:53pm WR: As a kid I didn't know Bobby Fuller was from Texas but I do remember when I saw the band on TV in the prison cell set.
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Funky16Corners: I wish he'd lived longer to make more music. Talented guy.
	3:55pm bradford: ...let that guitar fall in
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Erica: The Tighten Up!
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Jeff Ash: Man, been looking for Archie Bell records. They apparently don't exist in Wisconsin.
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Jeff Ash: Too far from Houston, I guess.
	3:56pm Andres: Tighten Up. So great!!
	♥ 3:57pm Michael 98145: Wish i had some of these 45s
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm doctorjazz: I'm old, but not old enough to have seen Blind Lemon Jefferson.
	♥ 4:00pm Michael 98145: I -was- fortunate enough to have seen Lightnin' Hopkins
	🥁 ♥ 4:01pm doctorjazz: Old enough to have seen Lightnin' Hopkins, but want smart enough...
	🥁 ♥ 4:01pm WR: You cracked me up doctorjazz. Since Jefferson died in 1929 the opportunity to see him passed me by too.
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: BTW It'll be Easter Everywhere this Sunday...
	♥ 4:04pm holland oats: blind melon on the other hand...
	♥ 4:06pm Michael 98145: .. and Passover April 15 - April 23
	♥ 4:06pm StringOFperils: Hello, Testifiers!
	🥁 ♥ 4:07pm Funky16Corners: Which reminds me that I have to hit the supermarket and get me some'o them Manischewitz macaroons
	🥁 ♥ 4:07pm Funky16Corners: Hey String!
	♥ 4:07pm Michael 98145: ... and Orthodox Easter on April 24th
	🥁 ♥ 4:07pm Funky16Corners: Now would be a great time to swallow some acid, if you have it handy
	🥁 ♥ 4:08pm WR: Sorry Larry, still working. No LSD during office hours.
	🥁 ♥ 4:09pm Funky16Corners: Roky plays organ and harmonica on this freakout
	🥁 ♥ 4:10pm Funky16Corners: I fully endorse consumption of psychedelics in the workplace. I can't say it works for everyone, though.
	4:11pm still b/p: "Bring Your Blotter To Work" Day.
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm Funky16Corners: Sneak some mushrooms into a peanut butter and jelly sandwich
	♥ 4:16pm Michael 98145: (From The Guardian Live feed at 21:09 BST (GMT+1): 'Damaged Russian warship Moskva has sunk - Russian ministry Russia’s defence ministry has put out a statement to say its Moskva missile cruise ship has sunk in the Black Sea off southern Ukraine. It’s still unclear whether it was hit by Ukrainian weaponry. The ship is believed to have experienced significant damage and was thought to be heading to Sevastopol, Crimea, before it succumbed. Russia earlier claimed it had experienced damage as a result of an ammunition fire on board. Crew were evacuated.)
	♥ 4:16pm holland oats: eating babies for nourishment 😮
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm Funky16Corners: Only free range babies, none of that caged, fast food stuff.
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm WR: Wow man, way way out with Booker Ervin. Don't know if I've seen the Pacific Jazz Ervin release.
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: Blue Note reissued it in the late 80s or early 90s
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm doctorjazz: Love this Giuffre (love his stuff in general, and this is amazing)
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm Funky16Corners: This is the group from Jazz On a Summers Day, Giuffre, Bob Brookmeyer on valve trombone and Jim Hall on guitar
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm doctorjazz: Don't think I have this live version, believe there is a studio version I do have.
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm Funky16Corners: This is from a bootleg CD I bought more than 20 years ago
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm doctorjazz: Ahhh....
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Funky16Corners: Fresh Sounds was a Spanish label that put out a bunch of unofficial live stuff. Oddly enough the local Borders used to carry a lot of it
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm WR: Didn't know of Giuffre's Texas roots.
	♥ 4:27pm Little Danny: you can a sense a watershed jazz moment within just a few seconds of hearing this opening bassline
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: Giuffre was from Dallas. He graduated from North Texas State which had/has a solid jazz program
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: @Danny - Hearing the Coleman Quartet stuff was a brain rewiring moment for me
	♥ 4:29pm Little Danny: me too larry :)
	♥ 4:30pm Discotech Underground: Good afternoon Larry and fellow testifiers!
	🥁 ♥ 4:30pm Funky16Corners: Kip!
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm WR: I was a drop out from NTSU. Twice.
	♥ 4:31pm Discotech Underground: Roky and Clementine Hall!
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm Funky16Corners: Make sure to tune in to Kip and Discothech Underground at 5PM! wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm Funky16Corners: @WR - I think Bob Dorough was an alumnus as well
	♥ 4:32pm Little Danny: wow, WR, i knew about your texas tenure but hadn't known you spent time at NTSU
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm Erica: Hey Kip.
	♥ 4:33pm Little Danny: NTSU jazz lab LPs are texas budget bin staples
	🥁 ♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: I think Lyle Mays too
	♥ 4:33pm Discotech Underground: Hey Erica!
	🥁 ♥ 4:35pm Funky16Corners: BTW this Mickey Newbury album is brilliant.
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm WR: LD, I'm sure if you check with NTSU that they would find no sign of me being there.
	♥ 4:37pm Discotech Underground: Sounds like he's channeling Nashville Skyline era Dylan.
	♥ 4:37pm Alvy Singer: @Larry...Saw Roky Erickson at Webster hall in May of 2010. All I kept saying to myself was, "there he is, there he is."
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm Funky16Corners: Recorded in Nashville around the same time, with many of the same guys
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm Funky16Corners: @Alvy - I never got to see Roky. much to my regret
	♥ 4:40pm Discotech Underground: I saw Roky at some hole in the wall club in New Orleans sometime in the 80's when he was still living with his doting mother, Evelyn. The show was excellent even though he just sort of stood there while he played and sang.
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Funky16Corners: Another great musician destroyed by drugs, repressive law enforcement and improper mental health treatment
	♥ 4:43pm Michael 98145: many stories like that
	♥ 4:43pm Michael 98145: SRV !!!
	♥ 4:45pm Alvy Singer: @Larry..Makes you wonder if Townes was really resigned to his fate.
	🥁 ♥ 4:45pm Funky16Corners: TVZ gave off an air of oncoming doom from the very beginning.
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: I saw SRV do this from like four feet away at a club called the Royal Manor North in North Brunswick, NJ. Epic.
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm doctorjazz: SRV has so much Jimi in him(but still so SRV)!
	♥ 4:48pm Alvy Singer: Even the success of Pancho and Lefty never fazed him. His songs were so autobiographical.
	♥ 4:48pm Discotech Underground: SRV played his next to last concert in Kalamazoo at the fairgrounds which is 25 miles from where I am sitting right now.
	🥁 ♥ 4:49pm Funky16Corners: The last place was in Wisconsin, right?
	♥ 4:50pm Discotech Underground: Yes, an outdoor venue called Alpine Valley. It was like the next day after the Kzoo show.
	🥁 ♥ 4:50pm doctorjazz: Love Townes, old enough to have gotten to see him a couple of times.
	♥ 4:52pm StringOFperils: Me too. Townes was one strange wonderful character.
	♥ 4:52pm Discotech Underground: This Charley Pride song is a guilty pleasure.
	🥁 ♥ 4:53pm Erica: And now we're deep in the ❤ of Texas.
	🥁 ♥ 4:53pm doctorjazz: Almost done, fun show, thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:53pm D Rok: I've really been really digging the show today, then you go and cap it off with some Charley Pride. Perfection!
	🥁 ♥ 4:53pm Funky16Corners: Nothing guilty about it! Sir Doug did a great version of this, too.
	♥ 4:54pm theroth: Loved listening to this show and the rain. Thanks!
	🥁 ♥ 4:54pm WR: Discotech Underground: @4:40PM "I saw Roky at some hole in the wall club in New Orleans sometime in the 80's" Ha, I think I was there too.
	♥ 4:54pm Michael 98145: Oh, wow. That was fast! Thanks, again.
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Sem: Texas treasure trove! Thank you, Larry.
	♥ 4:55pm Discotech Underground: WR-I think it was called Tupelo's?
	♥ 4:55pm Alvy Singer: Greta show today Larry. Thank you.
	🥁 ♥ 4:56pm WR: Ah, I didn't go to the Tupulo's show. The one I went to was a club just off Esplanade below the French Quarter.
	4:57pm still b/p: That was a marginal "I'm goin' down the road" whistle from Charley, and not a real strong musical whistle. Did any studio or the Wrecking Crew or Muscle Shoals dudes have a ready whistler?
	🥁 ♥ 4:57pm Yvang: Superb show! Thanks Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:57pm Erica: Happy Easter holiday weekend everyone!
	♥ 4:57pm TDK60: Thanks Larry!
	♥ 4:57pm JR HTX: Thanks Larry, loved all the Texas mix. cheers~!
	🥁 ♥ 4:58pm Funky16Corners: Thank you all!
	♥ 4:58pm StringOFperils: Cool show Larry! Thanks!
	♥ 4:58pm Little Danny: thanks as always, Larry!!!
	♥ 4:58pm Michael 98145: p.s. 🇺🇦🌷
	🥁 ♥ 4:58pm Funky16Corners: Thanks guys!
	🥁 ♥ 4:58pm WR: Thank you Larry for bringing back old memories and introducing me to new ones too!
