	1:03pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ HyperDose @1:02 Hey HyperDose!
	1:03pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Jan Turkenburg @1:03 Hi Jan!
	♥ 1:03pm Krys O.: Hey, HyperDose! Jan, welcome!
	1:05pm Mr Fab: Not familiar with Ray Ellington, but anyone down with the Goons is all right by me.
	♥ 1:06pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @1:05 Glad to share this with everyone.
	🎸 ♥ 1:06pm Handy Haversack: Krys o! And all those tall enough for the fun rides! Sorry we're late. Cat food emergency.
	♥ 1:07pm HyperDose: Good afternoon, Mr. Oxford!
	♥ 1:08pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:06 Zoinks, Handy! Glad you could make it AND that the kitties are sated.
	🎸 ♥ 1:11pm Handy Haversack: 27 cans of cat food, 12 cans of dog food, 8 lb. bag of dry dog food, lysine treats, hemp oil. Oof. Glad this music is so cool!
	♥ 1:12pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:11 That's a full larder.
	🎸 ♥ 1:13pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Krys O. @1:12 For a few days at least ...
	1:14pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:06 Hey Handy. It's embarrassing that it took me a while to get your 'tall enough' comment. I haven't been on an actual roller coaster forever to remember that prerequisite to get on the ride.
	♥ 1:15pm HyperDose: Hemp oil? I knew Bagpipe was a hippie!
	🎸 ♥ 1:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Mr. Oxford @1:14 Ha! Honestly, I haven't either. I have one of those constitutions that finds being terrified terrifying.
	1:15pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Song: "The Best Man" by "Ray Ellington Quartet" I'm loving Ray Ellington's voice. It's so velvety (at least to me anyway).
	♥ 1:16pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr. Oxford @1:15 There's a similarity to Nat King Cole in Ray's voice. Nat covered a song written by Ray called That's My Girl.
	1:17pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:15 I've been on one only once. When I was tall enough and old enough. Found it a bit overrated and less fun so never did it again. This roller coaster is lots of fun though needless to say.
	1:18pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Krys O. @1:16 That's it! I kept thinking Ellingston's voice was similar to a famous voice but couldn't figure it out who. Definitely similar to Nat King Cole's voice. I think I've heard of "That's My Girl" recording by King Cole before.
	🎸 ♥ 1:23pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "The Irish Were Egyptians Long Ago" by "Ray Elling... Fantastic.
	♥ 1:24pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "The Irish Were Egyptians Long Ago" by "Ray Elling... So mystical!
	🎸 ♥ 1:24pm Handy Haversack: Don't use your real accents! It's not roi-id, Sally, roi-id! It's ride, Sally, ride!
	♥ 1:25pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "Keep Off The Grass" by "Ray Ellington Quartet" No way Jose! 😎💨
	🎸 ♥ 1:28pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "The Maharajah of Magador" by "Ray Ellington Quartet" "Novelty songs," you say.
	♥ 1:30pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:28 Lots of info on Ray here: fromthevaults-boppinbob.blogspot.com...
	1:34pm Mr Fab: I wonder if Harry Seacomb and Spike Milligan resented Peter Sellers’ Hollywood success, the way Peter Cook (allegedly) felt about Dudley Moore.
	🎸 ♥ 1:35pm Jan Turkenburg: Always nice to hear Tennessee Waltz in four four time!
	🎸 ♥ 1:35pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Krys O. @1:30 Amazing story -- thanks, Krys! He was born six months before my dad.
	♥ 1:35pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:35 Wow!
	♥ 1:38pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @1:34 Peter Cook was a bit of a narcissist according to the Thomson book. The competition between him and Dudley regarding sexual conquests was particularly heated. They came together toward the end though.
	♥ 1:40pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @1:34 Peter Sellers' fame was out of this world. Harry Secombe was famous as far as his sacred music releases and Spike was driven to write and do many TV shows. They were in their own trajectories.
	♥ 1:40pm Krys O.: ↳ Jan Turkenburg @1:35 Leave that to Ray.
	♥ 1:41pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "Rhythm of the World" by "Ray Ellington" Killer vibrato
	♥ 1:41pm Krys O.: ↳ HyperDose @1:41 And he was getting up there in years too.
	1:43pm Mr Fab: ↳ Krys O. @1:40 Good to know, thx.
	1:49pm Mr Fab: I remember reading about this album and how it was supposedly so terrible and thinking: I dunno, sounds pretty cool to me…
	♥ 1:50pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @1:49 Right?! I picked it up at a record show in the 80s for a couple of bucks and used to drop it in on my show back then.
	1:54pm Mr Fab: It sounds pretty pioneering now. Can’t think of too many sound collage albums that precede it.
	♥ 1:54pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @1:54 At least not by pop bands.
	♥ 1:55pm HyperDose: I'm getting historical whiplash haha
	🎸 ♥ 1:56pm Handy Haversack: ↳ HyperDose @1:55 Just focus on the beat. It goes on.
	♥ 1:58pm Krys O.: Can you hear me, Tommy Edison?
	🎸 ♥ 2:02pm Sem: Hello, Krys, rollers, coasters, and the free formed.
	♥ 2:03pm Krys O.: ↳ Sem @2:02 Come on in, Sem. Set yourself down.
	🎸 ♥ 2:03pm Will thee Sound Guy: H8 Krys O and all!!!
	2:03pm Mr Fab: I understand why the Fudge wouldn’t like it - they’re not in it a lot!
	🎸 ♥ 2:03pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi
	🎸 ♥ 2:04pm Handy Haversack: Afternoon, Sem. Keep your hands inside the ride at all times.
	♥ 2:04pm Krys O.: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @2:03 Will, howdy!
	♥ 2:05pm JB: Hiya Krys O. I'm sittin at home in the basement with the covid
	♥ 2:06pm Krys O.: ↳ JB @2:05 Dang it! So sorry, JB. Feel better soon.
	♥ 2:06pm HyperDose: Hey Will! Hang in there, JB 💜
	♥ 2:08pm JB: Thanks. Advil is taking care of the headache and sore throat. It could be worse...
	♥ 2:16pm Brian in UK: Hello Krys O. There was always a musical interlude on the Goons Show.
	♥ 2:17pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:16 Hi, Brian! Yup, and they were always a treat.
	♥ 2:19pm Brian in UK: Ah James Mason, what a dry voice.
	♥ 2:23pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:19 The best James Mason movie was called Bigger Than Life. He plays a man who is a patient who becomes addicted to steroids. It's from 1956 and was directed by Nicholas Ray.
	♥ 2:24pm Brian in UK: You want dark & then there is Nicholas Ray. Compulsive films.
	♥ 2:24pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:24 Aye!
	🎸 ♥ 2:25pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi HD, feel better soon JB!
	♥ 2:27pm Krys O.: Here is a fascinating article that describes Elodie Lauten's post-minimalism and her genius: www.kylegann.com...
	🎸 ♥ 2:29pm Handy Haversack: Evening, Brian.
	♥ 2:29pm Krys O.: And here is a comprehensive site for Lauten that was lovingly assembled by WFMU's Webhamster Henry Lowengard: www.echonyc.com...
	♥ 2:30pm Brian in UK: Krys O, not sure it you can see this, it is a touching film about Spike. www.bbc.co.uk...
	♥ 2:30pm Brian in UK: Hello Handy, any news on K8's job?
	2:32pm Mr Fab: I wasn’t aware that “ post-minimalism” was a thing. But whatever this is, it sure is nice.
	♥ 2:32pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:30 Thank you, Brian. I'll check that out. I was a huge Spike fan. I actually had a dream two days before Spike died that foretold the headline, Last Goon of All. It freaked me out when it came true days later. I've read and re-read Puckoon and Spike's poetry over and over again.
	♥ 2:33pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:32 I didn't either, Mr. Fab. I just "knew what I liked." I played her music on my show in the 80s. I was really thrilled to see her play live that day at Howl Festival. Felt like a fan girl.
	🎸 ♥ 2:34pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Brian in UK @2:30 Nothing yet. She does a sample class for them on Tue., and then they'll make their call Wed. or Thu. Fingers crossed here. She's absolutely perfect for it, and it would bring a little stability our way. Thanks! Also, I told man man in Edinburgh about that Shropshire rye, and he's going to look for it.
	♥ 2:37pm Brian in UK: Krys O love the line in Adolph Hitler,...... when the Sargent says to him 'What are you doing here'. He replies 'Well everyone has to be somewhere'.
	♥ 2:37pm Brian in UK: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:34 Well he has an open invitation here; as do you.
	🎸 ♥ 2:38pm Will thee Sound Guy: We've got to go, Be well everyone!!! Thank you Krys O!!!
	♥ 2:39pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:37 Very Spike. I have a copy of The Great McGonagall. It has some glitches, but it's hilarious. Also have The Bed Sitting Room.
	♥ 2:39pm Krys O.: Thanks, Will! All the best to you and your family!
	🎸 ♥ 2:40pm Webhamster Henry: Hi Krys! I was Elodie's webmaster at one point!
	🎸 ♥ 2:40pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:40 Oh I see you already found it!
	♥ 2:41pm Krys O.: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:40 YES! And I shared that info a little further up in the comments. Loved her work so much.
	🎸 ♥ 2:41pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Brian in UK @2:37 I hope to take you up on it!
	♥ 2:41pm Krys O.: Best of luck for K8!
	♥ 2:43pm Brian in UK: Well, I cannot put off the washing up any longer!! Enjoying Elodie.
	🎸 ♥ 2:43pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Krys!
	♥ 2:43pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:37 Brian, the first time I ever saw or heard about Spike as a kid was seeing The Magic Christian movie on TV when I was home from school with a cold. I was already a Monty Python fan.
	🎸 ♥ 2:46pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Krys O. @2:41 I knew her through the American Festival of Microtonal music. Also : Spike! I have Puckoon around here somewhere. I'm more familiar with the off the wall Britishness of Vivian Stanshall
	♥ 2:48pm Krys O.: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:46 Well, Viv carried the torch for certain especially with Sir Henry at Rawlinson End.
	♥ 2:49pm Brian in UK: We grew up with the Goons, it seemed normal. Impressed that you & a few others liked him. There is a world view!!! Webhamster Henry, oh yes. Vivian is in my blood, bought the first Bonzoes album, Gorilla in late '67, was hooked ever since.
	♥ 2:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @2:43 Love Magic Christian! I am due for a rewatch.
	♥ 2:50pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:49 I was just thinking of Youngman Grand the other morning.
	♥ 2:51pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:49 School of Rembrandt's Nose.
	♥ 2:51pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @2:50 The book is also hilarious, although quite different from the film.
	♥ 2:52pm Brian in UK: ↳ Krys O. @2:48 There are folks over here who can recite it verbatim. 'I don't know what I want but I want it now'. Steve Winwood was a good friend to Vivian. 'Arc of a Diver' is a wonderful song by them.
	♥ 2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:49 I was lucky enough to have a good friend who schooled me on all things Goon.
	♥ 2:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @2:51 "and keep your eye out for a good ear!"
	🎸 ♥ 2:52pm Handy Haversack: This has been wonderful, Krys! What a great show. As always, I learned a ton from you. Many thanks for putting it all together!
	♥ 2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:51 Oh, yes indeed. I read it in college. Bought the paperback at a Salvation Army. I have Terry Southern's Red Dirt Marijuana and Other Stories still too.
	♥ 2:53pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:52 Thank you for being here, Handy! Cheers!
	♥ 2:53pm Krys O.: Many thanks to everyone for taking the time to listen and comment. Be well! See ya next week!
	♥ 2:54pm Krys O.: Stay tuned for Wired Up! wfmu.org...
	♥ 2:54pm Brian in UK: Nice one Krys O. To the kitchen & washing up. Yipee!!
	♥ 2:54pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:51 I was thinking about that film the other day when I saw a youtoob vid about a UK reality TV show where they made a bunch of finalists think they were flying into space on a space shuttle. They never left the huge building that all the (fake) training and space trip preparations took place in.
	♥ 2:55pm Krys O.: Dang, I missed a song in the playlist. Must correct. Blast.
	♥ 2:55pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:54 [potential spoiler alert]
	♥ 2:56pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:54 Ha!
	♥ 2:56pm HyperDose: Thanks Krys. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
	♥ 2:57pm Krys O.: ↳ HyperDose @2:56 Merci!
	♥ 2:59pm Krys O.: Microscopes don't eat.
	3:00pm wenzo: Thanks!
	3:00pm Mr. Oxford: Thank you for a great show, Krys O.!

	♥ 2:06pm HyperDose: Hey Will! Hang in there, JB 💜
	♥ 2:08pm JB: Thanks. Advil is taking care of the headache and sore throat. It could be worse...
	♥ 2:16pm Brian in UK: Hello Krys O. There was always a musical interlude on the Goons Show.
	♥ 2:17pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:16 Hi, Brian! Yup, and they were always a treat.
	♥ 2:19pm Brian in UK: Ah James Mason, what a dry voice.
	♥ 2:23pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:19 The best James Mason movie was called Bigger Than Life. He plays a man who is a patient who becomes addicted to steroids. It's from 1956 and was directed by Nicholas Ray.
	♥ 2:24pm Brian in UK: You want dark & then there is Nicholas Ray. Compulsive films.
	♥ 2:24pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:24 Aye!
	🎸 ♥ 2:25pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi HD, feel better soon JB!
	♥ 2:27pm Krys O.: Here is a fascinating article that describes Elodie Lauten's post-minimalism and her genius: www.kylegann.com...
	🎸 ♥ 2:29pm Handy Haversack: Evening, Brian.
	♥ 2:29pm Krys O.: And here is a comprehensive site for Lauten that was lovingly assembled by WFMU's Webhamster Henry Lowengard: www.echonyc.com...
	♥ 2:30pm Brian in UK: Krys O, not sure it you can see this, it is a touching film about Spike. www.bbc.co.uk...
	♥ 2:30pm Brian in UK: Hello Handy, any news on K8's job?
	2:32pm Mr Fab: I wasn’t aware that “ post-minimalism” was a thing. But whatever this is, it sure is nice.
	♥ 2:32pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:30 Thank you, Brian. I'll check that out. I was a huge Spike fan. I actually had a dream two days before Spike died that foretold the headline, Last Goon of All. It freaked me out when it came true days later. I've read and re-read Puckoon and Spike's poetry over and over again.
	♥ 2:33pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:32 I didn't either, Mr. Fab. I just "knew what I liked." I played her music on my show in the 80s. I was really thrilled to see her play live that day at Howl Festival. Felt like a fan girl.
	🎸 ♥ 2:34pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Brian in UK @2:30 Nothing yet. She does a sample class for them on Tue., and then they'll make their call Wed. or Thu. Fingers crossed here. She's absolutely perfect for it, and it would bring a little stability our way. Thanks! Also, I told man man in Edinburgh about that Shropshire rye, and he's going to look for it.
	♥ 2:37pm Brian in UK: Krys O love the line in Adolph Hitler,...... when the Sargent says to him 'What are you doing here'. He replies 'Well everyone has to be somewhere'.
	♥ 2:37pm Brian in UK: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:34 Well he has an open invitation here; as do you.
	🎸 ♥ 2:38pm Will thee Sound Guy: We've got to go, Be well everyone!!! Thank you Krys O!!!
	♥ 2:39pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:37 Very Spike. I have a copy of The Great McGonagall. It has some glitches, but it's hilarious. Also have The Bed Sitting Room.
	♥ 2:39pm Krys O.: Thanks, Will! All the best to you and your family!
	🎸 ♥ 2:40pm Webhamster Henry: Hi Krys! I was Elodie's webmaster at one point!
	🎸 ♥ 2:40pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:40 Oh I see you already found it!
	♥ 2:41pm Krys O.: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:40 YES! And I shared that info a little further up in the comments. Loved her work so much.
	🎸 ♥ 2:41pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Brian in UK @2:37 I hope to take you up on it!
	♥ 2:41pm Krys O.: Best of luck for K8!
	♥ 2:43pm Brian in UK: Well, I cannot put off the washing up any longer!! Enjoying Elodie.
	🎸 ♥ 2:43pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Krys!
	♥ 2:43pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:37 Brian, the first time I ever saw or heard about Spike as a kid was seeing The Magic Christian movie on TV when I was home from school with a cold. I was already a Monty Python fan.
	🎸 ♥ 2:46pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Krys O. @2:41 I knew her through the American Festival of Microtonal music. Also : Spike! I have Puckoon around here somewhere. I'm more familiar with the off the wall Britishness of Vivian Stanshall
	♥ 2:48pm Krys O.: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:46 Well, Viv carried the torch for certain especially with Sir Henry at Rawlinson End.
	♥ 2:49pm Brian in UK: We grew up with the Goons, it seemed normal. Impressed that you & a few others liked him. There is a world view!!! Webhamster Henry, oh yes. Vivian is in my blood, bought the first Bonzoes album, Gorilla in late '67, was hooked ever since.
	♥ 2:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @2:43 Love Magic Christian! I am due for a rewatch.
	♥ 2:50pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:49 I was just thinking of Youngman Grand the other morning.
	♥ 2:51pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:49 School of Rembrandt's Nose.
	♥ 2:51pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @2:50 The book is also hilarious, although quite different from the film.
	♥ 2:52pm Brian in UK: ↳ Krys O. @2:48 There are folks over here who can recite it verbatim. 'I don't know what I want but I want it now'. Steve Winwood was a good friend to Vivian. 'Arc of a Diver' is a wonderful song by them.
	♥ 2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Brian in UK @2:49 I was lucky enough to have a good friend who schooled me on all things Goon.
	♥ 2:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @2:51 "and keep your eye out for a good ear!"
	🎸 ♥ 2:52pm Handy Haversack: This has been wonderful, Krys! What a great show. As always, I learned a ton from you. Many thanks for putting it all together!
	♥ 2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:51 Oh, yes indeed. I read it in college. Bought the paperback at a Salvation Army. I have Terry Southern's Red Dirt Marijuana and Other Stories still too.
	♥ 2:53pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:52 Thank you for being here, Handy! Cheers!
	♥ 2:53pm Krys O.: Many thanks to everyone for taking the time to listen and comment. Be well! See ya next week!
	♥ 2:54pm Krys O.: Stay tuned for Wired Up! wfmu.org...
	♥ 2:54pm Brian in UK: Nice one Krys O. To the kitchen & washing up. Yipee!!
	♥ 2:54pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:51 I was thinking about that film the other day when I saw a youtoob vid about a UK reality TV show where they made a bunch of finalists think they were flying into space on a space shuttle. They never left the huge building that all the (fake) training and space trip preparations took place in.
	♥ 2:55pm Krys O.: Dang, I missed a song in the playlist. Must correct. Blast.
	♥ 2:55pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:54 [potential spoiler alert]
	♥ 2:56pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:54 Ha!
	♥ 2:56pm HyperDose: Thanks Krys. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
	♥ 2:57pm Krys O.: ↳ HyperDose @2:56 Merci!
	♥ 2:59pm Krys O.: Microscopes don't eat.
