	6:03pm MOM WHIG: Hi Dennis - Gaylord

	6:05pm cometothesunshine: Hopefully they will gain some new fans today.
	6:06pm Gaylord Fields: Bwahahahaha!!!
	☀ 6:06pm WLSClark: ↳ Gaylord Fields @6:05 Thank you, Gaylord! Hi praise!
	6:07pm cometothesunshine: Their catalog is all the more impressive when you hear all of their self-composed material.
	6:07pm Dennis: Hi Mom, hello dere Gaylord!!
	6:08pm cometothesunshine: Hello, Dennis - welcome
	6:08pm Dennis: An Andrew drop in?? I didn’t hear about this! Details, por favor!
	6:09pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Dennis @6:08 No, no drop in from me - just new regular shows the last several weeks.
	6:09pm cometothesunshine: Too busy holding Orange Peel's hand. And sadly it isn't writing any checks.
	☀ 6:10pm WLSClark: ↳ Dennis @6:08 My drop in, Dennis. If interested later: wfmu.org...
	☀ 6:11pm WLSClark: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:09 OP is limited in the records he has I think.
	6:12pm Dennis: Ahh, great WLS! Good on yer - thx for the link!
	6:12pm Synodicat: Thank you for helping me pronounce The Tages correctly!
	6:13pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @6:12 My great pleasure!
	6:13pm Erica: Pronounced Tog-us.
	6:14pm cometothesunshine: Their body of work stacks up with the best of 'em!
	6:14pm cometothesunshine: Though only one of their 45s came out in the USA - and none of their 5 LPs!
	6:14pm Tom: Been listening to your shows this past weekend. Glad to find you again! Listened to your shows at your old site.
	6:15pm Mike: Didn't the Nashville Ramblers cover this?
	6:15pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Tom @6:14 Thanks so much, Tom! Glad I roped you back in!
	6:15pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Mike @6:15 Indeed they still do this one in their live sets!
	6:15pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Synodicat @6:12 hi
	6:16pm Beantown Doug: I first heard of ABBA from a friend, who is still a friend. She wrote to me after they won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974, an event I'd never heard of before. Her family had moved to Belgium, where she was attending an American school in Waterloo. Which made the song a very big deal for the kids.
	6:16pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Tom @6:14 hi
	6:16pm Mike: I knew it! Always wondered what this song was.
	6:16pm Synodicat: ↳ MOM WHIG @6:15 Hi! Wouldn't have missed this! Love Tages!
	6:17pm Tom: Hello Mom Whig
	6:18pm Mike: Finally have a chance to tune in to listen live, Andrew. Enjoying the show!
	6:18pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "Those Rumours" by "Tages" How much presence did Tages have in the UK?
	6:20pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "Guess Who" by "Tages" Just tuned in and before I looked at the playlist, I thought, "Here's a Dave Davies number I've never heard!"
	6:21pm Beantown Doug: ↳ myron feld @6:20 With a bit of the Who in this Guess Who.
	6:21pm Tom: ↳ myron feld @6:20 Dave Davies meets the early Who
	6:21pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Crazy 'Bout My Baby" by "Tages" Are they crazy?
	6:21pm MOM WHIG: ↳ myron feld @6:20 hi
	6:22pm myron feld: ↳ MOM WHIG @6:21 hey MOM!
	6:22pm Yod Crewsy: Hi Andrew and everyone! Hi Mom!!!
	6:23pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "Crazy 'Bout My Baby" by "Tages" They were versatile.
	☀ 6:23pm WLSClark: ↳ myron feld @6:22 Hiya Myron, Tom, Mike, Synodicat, yod!
	6:23pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Yod Crewsy @6:22 Welcome, Yod - thanks for listening!
	6:23pm Gaylord Fields: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:21 If that "baby" is OP, then perhaps.
	6:23pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @6:23 Just wait!
	6:24pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Gaylord Fields @6:23 Every time he ask s for you, I say you are very busy these days.
	6:26pm myron feld: ↳ WLSClark @6:23 hey WLS! Listened to your Drop-In today -- top-notch!
	6:26pm Yod Crewsy: Hi WLSClark! Greetings from the middle of nowhere!!!
	6:26pm Gaylord Fields: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:24 I really appreciate that. I'm also fortunate he never listens to your show and never reads your comment board.
	☀ 6:27pm WLSClark: ↳ myron feld @6:26 Thanks, myron!!!
	6:27pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Gaylord Fields @6:26 He enjoys his downtime.
	☀ 6:28pm WLSClark: ↳ Yod Crewsy @6:26 Yod, everyone says that is where I AM!
	6:29pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Yod Crewsy @6:26 hi
	6:31pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Extra" by "Tages" They started to get pretty way out on their LPs!
	6:33pm Tom: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:31 They sure embraced a variety of styles
	6:33pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Tom @6:33 Like all great 60s bands
	6:35pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "Gone Too Far" by "Tages" Now here's some Baroque Pop.
	6:36pm Tom: Mod clothing- one of them has a Keith Moon “target” shirt
	6:36pm cometothesunshine: TMI
	6:36pm cometothesunshine: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:36 re: Secret Room
	6:39pm Beantown Doug: Psychedelic in, lemme guess, '67!
	6:39pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @6:39 April 1967
	6:41pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "You're Too Incomprehensible" by "Tages" I was lucky enough to find a copy of their Contrast album while I was in Japan in December.
	6:46pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Prisoner 763" by "Tages" pre-Satanic Majesties
	6:47pm Synodicat: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:46 Wonderful!!
	6:48pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @6:47 When you take away all of the contemporary covers from their albums, their original work really shines.
	6:52pm Beantown Doug: Interesting ratio of albums to singles.
	6:53pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @6:52 When they left Platina and joined EMI/Parlophone - Platina put out a ton of 45s to compete with their newer recordings.
	6:55pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "One Day" by "Tages" I love this melody
	6:56pm Beantown Doug: How much turnover, if any, in the band? This is quite a body of work.
	6:57pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @6:56 They changed drummers in 1967
	6:57pm Beantown Doug: Drummers don't count. ;-)
	6:57pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Treat Her Like A Lady" by "Tages" Singles like this kept them afloat commercially
	6:58pm cometothesunshine: They recorded and played some gigs in the UK, but never cracked the charts.
	6:58pm Synodicat: That “Contrast” album! Need to start searching for that!
	6:59pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @6:58 At least their albums only came out in Stereo!
	6:59pm Synodicat: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:59 Ha ha!
	6:59pm Tom: Did they sing anything in Swedish?
	7:00pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ Tom @6:59 i was about to ask the same thing!
	7:00pm Beantown Doug: The business was so competitive. All those lazy, stoned Hippie musicians were in fact very busy and hard working!
	7:01pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "I See The Rain" by "Tages" I've always loved the construction of this song.
	7:01pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Tom @6:59 They did not record in Swedish, only English.
	7:01pm Synodicat: My favorite Marmalade track! They chose well.
	7:02pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @7:01 Yeah, one of my favorites of the era.
	7:02pm Beantown Doug: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:02 It's like a textbook example of how to compose a great song.
	7:04pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "Hey Grandma" by "Tages" Hello, Moby Grape!
	7:05pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Hey Grandma" by "Tages" This time 'round
	7:06pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Hey Grandma" by "Tages" bands loved covering this song
	7:08pm Erica: ↳ Song: "America" by "Tages" Much heavier than the Simon and Garfunkel original.
	7:08pm Synodicat: Better than Yes’ version!
	7:08pm Erica: ↳ Synodicat @7:08 As much as I'm a fan of prog rock I must agree.
	7:09pm cometothesunshine: We are approaching their apex creatively in the next two sets
	7:09pm Synodicat: ↳ Erica @7:08 👍
	7:09pm Glynis GirlGroupGirl: Love this Andrew, so many Tages songs I’m not familiar with!
	7:10pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Glynis GirlGroupGirl @7:09 So glad to hear that - thank you Glynis!
	☀ 7:10pm WLSClark: Tages new to me. Great stuff indeed! Hi Glynis.
	7:10pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "America" by "Tages" I was in back of our '66 Ford Country Squire wagon listening to 'Bookends' on the 8-track during the drive for an extremely sad move from Connecticut to Massachusetts.
	☀ 7:11pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Like A Woman" by "Tages" A bit MOVE sounding fer sure here.
	7:14pm cometothesunshine: ↳ WLSClark @7:11 Yes, they had that solid vocal and instrumental feel.
	7:15pm Synodicat: I only had the “Studio” album and the “Stora Popboxen” comp. I am hearing so many great new things today.
	7:15pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Every Rain Drop Means A Lot" by "Tages" For my friends in California!
	7:16pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @7:15 I am glad to hear that - I absorbed all of their work for this particular episode
	7:17pm Synodicat: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:16 You are re-exciting my Tages mania.
	7:18pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "There's A Blind Man Playin' Fiddle In The Street"... This would have been a good one for Davy.
	7:23pm Synodicat: ↳ Song: "I Read You Like An Open Book" by "Tages" Like three or 4 songs for the price of 1!
	7:24pm Glynis GirlGroupGirl: ↳ WLSClark @7:11 Hey Clark! Love their best era stuff, the rest we don’t much have.
	7:24pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @7:23 Yes, not a shocker that it did not connect commercially.
	7:24pm uptownjen: ↳ Song: "I Read You Like An Open Book" by "Tages" An all-time favorite of mine!
	7:24pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "I Read You Like An Open Book" by "Tages" And this was one side of their only US 45!
	7:24pm Erica: ↳ Synodicat @7:23 Reminds me of Defecting Grey by the Pretty Things.
	7:25pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "I Read You Like An Open Book" by "Tages" progressive even for 1968
	7:26pm uptownjen: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:24 I have a US DJ copy.
	7:26pm cometothesunshine: ↳ uptownjen @7:26 Me too!
	7:27pm cometothesunshine: ↳ uptownjen @7:26 I guess stock copies may or may not have been made?
	7:28pm cometothesunshine: They kind of had the same stylistic range of material as The Turtles, but without any novelty cuts.
	7:29pm uptownjen: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:27 I thought the same. I know I started looking for it as soon as I first heard it on Nuggets II, and I can’t remember where I got it, but I know I paid very little for a nice copy.
	7:30pm uptownjen: ↳ uptownjen @7:29 It hit me instantly as something I HAD to have in my collection. It sticks in my head for days at a time. It’s likely to do the same again.
	7:31pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "To Be Free" by "Tages" This is a great one
	7:36pm uptownjen: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:31 Agreed!
	7:36pm uptownjen: ↳ Song: "Halcyon Days (UK single mix)" by "The Tages" This is a great one as well.
	7:37pm Synodicat: ↳ Song: "Halcyon Days (UK single mix)" by "The Tages" The single version rules.
	7:37pm uptownjen: ↳ Synodicat @7:37 This is the only version I know.
	7:37pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @7:37 More tambourine in the UK - Mike Hurst must have added it at the last minute!
	7:38pm Synodicat: ↳ uptownjen @7:37 The version on "Studio" is a bit different.
	7:38pm uptownjen: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:37 I’ll have to check out my 45 again. The US one is different from the UK?
	7:39pm Synodicat: ↳ Synodicat @7:38 Or maybe it was the Stora Popboxen version that I'm thinking of.
	7:40pm cometothesunshine: ↳ uptownjen @7:38 Doesn't have tambourine playing through the whole song - that is the most obvious difference.
	7:41pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Seeing With Love" by "Tages" They definitely go in some unexpected directions.
	☀ 7:42pm WLSClark: Sad they did not do well in UK or US. I would have loved hearing these in 60s
	7:42pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "Seeing With Love" by "Tages" I'm gonna guess this was new drummer?
	7:43pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @7:42 They are well into the 2nd drummer by this stage.
	7:44pm Beantown Doug: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:43 A power hitter.
	7:45pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "It's My Life" by "Tages" They achieved total heavyocity
	7:46pm cometothesunshine: Thanks to all of you for joining me today!
	7:47pm Beantown Doug: Thank you, Andrew! Both educational enjoyable.
	7:47pm Synodicat: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:46 Thank you!! Some great discoveries today!
	7:48pm uptownjen: Thanks, Andrew! Learned a lot today and had a lot of fun.
	7:48pm Erica: This has been a fun, educational show Andrew. The Tages has a lot of good songs in their discography.
	7:49pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks for giving my favorite Swedish band this spotlight, Andrew!
	7:49pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Gaylord Fields @7:49 Indeed!
	7:49pm Olivia Greene: Thank you for this wonderful introduction to Tages, Andrew!
	7:49pm cometothesunshine: Glad to provide today's infotainment!
	7:49pm Tom: Thank you, Andrew. I always learn about “new” old music from you!
	7:50pm cometothesunshine: See you all next Monday - take care and stay dry!
	7:51pm Yod Crewsy: Andrew: I was completely unfamiliar, except for "Read You Like An Open Book" with the extensive catalogue of this band! Thanks for the enlightenment!!!
	7:52pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Yod Crewsy @7:51 It's been my great pleasure to share this music today! Goodbye - stay tuned for The Orange Boutique
	7:52pm dreamyandseedy: thank you Andrew!
	7:53pm WTF_Chuck: Thanks Andrew! Great show!
	☀ 7:56pm WLSClark: Great music, Andrew!

	6:03pm MOM WHIG: Hi Dennis - Gaylord
	6:03pm Gaylord Fields: ↳ Beantown Doug @6:02 You may be thinking of Hep Stars, but Swedish beat is so much more than that.
	☀ 6:04pm WLSClark: ↳ Gaylord Fields @6:02 Hi Andrew, Gaylord, Erica, jen, Dennis, Mom, woof, seedy and OP!
	6:04pm Gaylord Fields: ↳ MOM WHIG @6:03 Hey there, MW, and hiya, Dennis!
	6:04pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Gaylord Fields @6:02 Or else this show would be "One For The Tages"
	6:04pm MOM WHIG: hi dreamy - - mce1965 too
	6:05pm Beantown Doug: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:04 D'oh!
	6:05pm Gaylord Fields: ↳ WLSClark @6:04 I got to hear only the first 10 minutes of your Drop-In show on Saturday before I had to go out to dinner, but I'm looking forward to the whole thing!
	6:05pm cometothesunshine: Hopefully they will gain some new fans today.
	6:06pm Gaylord Fields: Bwahahahaha!!!
	☀ 6:06pm WLSClark: ↳ Gaylord Fields @6:05 Thank you, Gaylord! Hi praise!
	6:07pm cometothesunshine: Their catalog is all the more impressive when you hear all of their self-composed material.
	6:07pm Dennis: Hi Mom, hello dere Gaylord!!
	6:08pm cometothesunshine: Hello, Dennis - welcome
	6:08pm Dennis: An Andrew drop in?? I didn’t hear about this! Details, por favor!
	6:09pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Dennis @6:08 No, no drop in from me - just new regular shows the last several weeks.
	6:09pm cometothesunshine: Too busy holding Orange Peel's hand. And sadly it isn't writing any checks.
	☀ 6:10pm WLSClark: ↳ Dennis @6:08 My drop in, Dennis. If interested later: wfmu.org...
	☀ 6:11pm WLSClark: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:09 OP is limited in the records he has I think.
	6:12pm Dennis: Ahh, great WLS! Good on yer - thx for the link!
	6:12pm Synodicat: Thank you for helping me pronounce The Tages correctly!
	6:13pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @6:12 My great pleasure!
	6:13pm Erica: Pronounced Tog-us.
	6:14pm cometothesunshine: Their body of work stacks up with the best of 'em!
	6:14pm cometothesunshine: Though only one of their 45s came out in the USA - and none of their 5 LPs!
	6:14pm Tom: Been listening to your shows this past weekend. Glad to find you again! Listened to your shows at your old site.
	6:15pm Mike: Didn't the Nashville Ramblers cover this?
	6:15pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Tom @6:14 Thanks so much, Tom! Glad I roped you back in!
	6:15pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Mike @6:15 Indeed they still do this one in their live sets!
	6:15pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Synodicat @6:12 hi
	6:16pm Beantown Doug: I first heard of ABBA from a friend, who is still a friend. She wrote to me after they won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974, an event I'd never heard of before. Her family had moved to Belgium, where she was attending an American school in Waterloo. Which made the song a very big deal for the kids.
	6:16pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Tom @6:14 hi
	6:16pm Mike: I knew it! Always wondered what this song was.
	6:16pm Synodicat: ↳ MOM WHIG @6:15 Hi! Wouldn't have missed this! Love Tages!
	6:17pm Tom: Hello Mom Whig
	6:18pm Mike: Finally have a chance to tune in to listen live, Andrew. Enjoying the show!
	6:18pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "Those Rumours" by "Tages" How much presence did Tages have in the UK?
	6:20pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "Guess Who" by "Tages" Just tuned in and before I looked at the playlist, I thought, "Here's a Dave Davies number I've never heard!"
	6:21pm Beantown Doug: ↳ myron feld @6:20 With a bit of the Who in this Guess Who.
	6:21pm Tom: ↳ myron feld @6:20 Dave Davies meets the early Who
	6:21pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Crazy 'Bout My Baby" by "Tages" Are they crazy?
	6:21pm MOM WHIG: ↳ myron feld @6:20 hi
	6:22pm myron feld: ↳ MOM WHIG @6:21 hey MOM!
	6:22pm Yod Crewsy: Hi Andrew and everyone! Hi Mom!!!
	6:23pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "Crazy 'Bout My Baby" by "Tages" They were versatile.
	☀ 6:23pm WLSClark: ↳ myron feld @6:22 Hiya Myron, Tom, Mike, Synodicat, yod!
	6:23pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Yod Crewsy @6:22 Welcome, Yod - thanks for listening!
	6:23pm Gaylord Fields: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:21 If that "baby" is OP, then perhaps.
	6:23pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @6:23 Just wait!
	6:24pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Gaylord Fields @6:23 Every time he ask s for you, I say you are very busy these days.
	6:26pm myron feld: ↳ WLSClark @6:23 hey WLS! Listened to your Drop-In today -- top-notch!
	6:26pm Yod Crewsy: Hi WLSClark! Greetings from the middle of nowhere!!!
	6:26pm Gaylord Fields: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:24 I really appreciate that. I'm also fortunate he never listens to your show and never reads your comment board.
	☀ 6:27pm WLSClark: ↳ myron feld @6:26 Thanks, myron!!!
	6:27pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Gaylord Fields @6:26 He enjoys his downtime.
	☀ 6:28pm WLSClark: ↳ Yod Crewsy @6:26 Yod, everyone says that is where I AM!
	6:29pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Yod Crewsy @6:26 hi
	6:31pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Extra" by "Tages" They started to get pretty way out on their LPs!
	6:33pm Tom: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:31 They sure embraced a variety of styles
	6:33pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Tom @6:33 Like all great 60s bands
	6:35pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "Gone Too Far" by "Tages" Now here's some Baroque Pop.
	6:36pm Tom: Mod clothing- one of them has a Keith Moon “target” shirt
	6:36pm cometothesunshine: TMI
	6:36pm cometothesunshine: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:36 re: Secret Room
	6:39pm Beantown Doug: Psychedelic in, lemme guess, '67!
	6:39pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @6:39 April 1967
	6:41pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "You're Too Incomprehensible" by "Tages" I was lucky enough to find a copy of their Contrast album while I was in Japan in December.
	6:46pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Prisoner 763" by "Tages" pre-Satanic Majesties
	6:47pm Synodicat: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:46 Wonderful!!
	6:48pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @6:47 When you take away all of the contemporary covers from their albums, their original work really shines.
	6:52pm Beantown Doug: Interesting ratio of albums to singles.
	6:53pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @6:52 When they left Platina and joined EMI/Parlophone - Platina put out a ton of 45s to compete with their newer recordings.
	6:55pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "One Day" by "Tages" I love this melody
	6:56pm Beantown Doug: How much turnover, if any, in the band? This is quite a body of work.
	6:57pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @6:56 They changed drummers in 1967
	6:57pm Beantown Doug: Drummers don't count. ;-)
	6:57pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Treat Her Like A Lady" by "Tages" Singles like this kept them afloat commercially
	6:58pm cometothesunshine: They recorded and played some gigs in the UK, but never cracked the charts.
	6:58pm Synodicat: That “Contrast” album! Need to start searching for that!
	6:59pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @6:58 At least their albums only came out in Stereo!
	6:59pm Synodicat: ↳ cometothesunshine @6:59 Ha ha!
	6:59pm Tom: Did they sing anything in Swedish?
	7:00pm dreamyandseedy: ↳ Tom @6:59 i was about to ask the same thing!
	7:00pm Beantown Doug: The business was so competitive. All those lazy, stoned Hippie musicians were in fact very busy and hard working!
	7:01pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "I See The Rain" by "Tages" I've always loved the construction of this song.
	7:01pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Tom @6:59 They did not record in Swedish, only English.
	7:01pm Synodicat: My favorite Marmalade track! They chose well.
	7:02pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @7:01 Yeah, one of my favorites of the era.
	7:02pm Beantown Doug: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:02 It's like a textbook example of how to compose a great song.
	7:04pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "Hey Grandma" by "Tages" Hello, Moby Grape!
	7:05pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Hey Grandma" by "Tages" This time 'round
	7:06pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Hey Grandma" by "Tages" bands loved covering this song
	7:08pm Erica: ↳ Song: "America" by "Tages" Much heavier than the Simon and Garfunkel original.
	7:08pm Synodicat: Better than Yes’ version!
	7:08pm Erica: ↳ Synodicat @7:08 As much as I'm a fan of prog rock I must agree.
	7:09pm cometothesunshine: We are approaching their apex creatively in the next two sets
	7:09pm Synodicat: ↳ Erica @7:08 👍
	7:09pm Glynis GirlGroupGirl: Love this Andrew, so many Tages songs I’m not familiar with!
	7:10pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Glynis GirlGroupGirl @7:09 So glad to hear that - thank you Glynis!
	☀ 7:10pm WLSClark: Tages new to me. Great stuff indeed! Hi Glynis.
	7:10pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "America" by "Tages" I was in back of our '66 Ford Country Squire wagon listening to 'Bookends' on the 8-track during the drive for an extremely sad move from Connecticut to Massachusetts.
	☀ 7:11pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Like A Woman" by "Tages" A bit MOVE sounding fer sure here.
	7:14pm cometothesunshine: ↳ WLSClark @7:11 Yes, they had that solid vocal and instrumental feel.
	7:15pm Synodicat: I only had the “Studio” album and the “Stora Popboxen” comp. I am hearing so many great new things today.
	7:15pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Every Rain Drop Means A Lot" by "Tages" For my friends in California!
	7:16pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @7:15 I am glad to hear that - I absorbed all of their work for this particular episode
	7:17pm Synodicat: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:16 You are re-exciting my Tages mania.
	7:18pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "There's A Blind Man Playin' Fiddle In The Street"... This would have been a good one for Davy.
	7:23pm Synodicat: ↳ Song: "I Read You Like An Open Book" by "Tages" Like three or 4 songs for the price of 1!
	7:24pm Glynis GirlGroupGirl: ↳ WLSClark @7:11 Hey Clark! Love their best era stuff, the rest we don’t much have.
	7:24pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @7:23 Yes, not a shocker that it did not connect commercially.
	7:24pm uptownjen: ↳ Song: "I Read You Like An Open Book" by "Tages" An all-time favorite of mine!
	7:24pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "I Read You Like An Open Book" by "Tages" And this was one side of their only US 45!
	7:24pm Erica: ↳ Synodicat @7:23 Reminds me of Defecting Grey by the Pretty Things.
	7:25pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "I Read You Like An Open Book" by "Tages" progressive even for 1968
	7:26pm uptownjen: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:24 I have a US DJ copy.
	7:26pm cometothesunshine: ↳ uptownjen @7:26 Me too!
	7:27pm cometothesunshine: ↳ uptownjen @7:26 I guess stock copies may or may not have been made?
	7:28pm cometothesunshine: They kind of had the same stylistic range of material as The Turtles, but without any novelty cuts.
	7:29pm uptownjen: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:27 I thought the same. I know I started looking for it as soon as I first heard it on Nuggets II, and I can’t remember where I got it, but I know I paid very little for a nice copy.
	7:30pm uptownjen: ↳ uptownjen @7:29 It hit me instantly as something I HAD to have in my collection. It sticks in my head for days at a time. It’s likely to do the same again.
	7:31pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "To Be Free" by "Tages" This is a great one
	7:36pm uptownjen: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:31 Agreed!
	7:36pm uptownjen: ↳ Song: "Halcyon Days (UK single mix)" by "The Tages" This is a great one as well.
	7:37pm Synodicat: ↳ Song: "Halcyon Days (UK single mix)" by "The Tages" The single version rules.
	7:37pm uptownjen: ↳ Synodicat @7:37 This is the only version I know.
	7:37pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Synodicat @7:37 More tambourine in the UK - Mike Hurst must have added it at the last minute!
	7:38pm Synodicat: ↳ uptownjen @7:37 The version on "Studio" is a bit different.
	7:38pm uptownjen: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:37 I’ll have to check out my 45 again. The US one is different from the UK?
	7:39pm Synodicat: ↳ Synodicat @7:38 Or maybe it was the Stora Popboxen version that I'm thinking of.
	7:40pm cometothesunshine: ↳ uptownjen @7:38 Doesn't have tambourine playing through the whole song - that is the most obvious difference.
	7:41pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "Seeing With Love" by "Tages" They definitely go in some unexpected directions.
	☀ 7:42pm WLSClark: Sad they did not do well in UK or US. I would have loved hearing these in 60s
	7:42pm Beantown Doug: ↳ Song: "Seeing With Love" by "Tages" I'm gonna guess this was new drummer?
	7:43pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Beantown Doug @7:42 They are well into the 2nd drummer by this stage.
	7:44pm Beantown Doug: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:43 A power hitter.
	7:45pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Song: "It's My Life" by "Tages" They achieved total heavyocity
	7:46pm cometothesunshine: Thanks to all of you for joining me today!
	7:47pm Beantown Doug: Thank you, Andrew! Both educational enjoyable.
	7:47pm Synodicat: ↳ cometothesunshine @7:46 Thank you!! Some great discoveries today!
	7:48pm uptownjen: Thanks, Andrew! Learned a lot today and had a lot of fun.
	7:48pm Erica: This has been a fun, educational show Andrew. The Tages has a lot of good songs in their discography.
	7:49pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks for giving my favorite Swedish band this spotlight, Andrew!
	7:49pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Gaylord Fields @7:49 Indeed!
	7:49pm Olivia Greene: Thank you for this wonderful introduction to Tages, Andrew!
	7:49pm cometothesunshine: Glad to provide today's infotainment!
	7:49pm Tom: Thank you, Andrew. I always learn about “new” old music from you!
	7:50pm cometothesunshine: See you all next Monday - take care and stay dry!
	7:51pm Yod Crewsy: Andrew: I was completely unfamiliar, except for "Read You Like An Open Book" with the extensive catalogue of this band! Thanks for the enlightenment!!!
	7:52pm cometothesunshine: ↳ Yod Crewsy @7:51 It's been my great pleasure to share this music today! Goodbye - stay tuned for The Orange Boutique
	7:52pm dreamyandseedy: thank you Andrew!
	7:53pm WTF_Chuck: Thanks Andrew! Great show!
	☀ 7:56pm WLSClark: Great music, Andrew!
