	🥁 ♥ 3:22pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Vincent The Soul Chef @3:22 Hey Vincent!
	🥁 ♥ 3:27pm Erica: Your welcome Larry!
	3:28pm still b/p: Was playing my profoundly half-assed single-guitar-string version of Mannix theme just a little while ago. In "Where Angels Go, Trouble Follows," a profoundly half-assed single-ply effort is made to reflect changing perspectives on social issues and religious authority.
	🥁 ♥ 3:28pm Brian in UK: Two turntables & a microphone. Let's go Larry. Oh you started already!!
	♥ 3:30pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "2002 (A Hit Song)" by "Free Design" always love the free design!

	🥁 ♥ 3:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ still b/p @3:28 Hey SBP! It had Stella Stevens as a nun, so there's that.
	♥ 3:34pm Webhamster Henry: If you're doing commercials, there's a massive number of Coke commercials by major acts!
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Erica: ↳ Song: "The Going Thing" by "The Going Thing" I saw a commercial for Ford 1970 with a girl singing that exact jingle.
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Webhamster Henry @3:33 YTRavel back through the archives. I play this stuff all the time!
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:34 That was from the Ford promotional album.
	♥ 3:35pm Webhamster Henry: Yeah I know! It's part of the testification!
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Erica: ↳ Webhamster Henry @3:34 Which you can hear on the Rock n Soul stream.
	🥁 ♥ 3:37pm Funky16Corners: Jim Weatherly from the Gordian Knot wrote Midnight Train to Georgia and Neither One of Us Wants To Be The First To Say Goodbye for Gladys Knight
	🥁 ♥ 3:52pm Funky16Corners: This is Seals and Crofts in an early incarnation
	🥁 ♥ 3:54pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Beverly Hills" by "Uncle Sound" Uncle Sound?
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:54 Yup
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:55 Just looked it up on YouTube.
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Mxter Baba: NNIILLSSSSOONN!!!!
	🥁 ♥ 3:57pm Mxter Baba: I'm reading the Nilsson bio right now—it's slow going, what with all the nerdy production details and heartbreaking experiences
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mxter Baba @3:57 Oh, it's SO SAD
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Mxter Baba: ↳ Song: "Best Friend" by "Puppet" watched "The COurtship of Eddie's Father" as a child, but not sonce then. Didn't remember that Nilsson sang incidental narrations in between scenes for the first 8 episodes! Want to go back and watch those.
	🥁 ♥ 3:59pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mxter Baba @3:58 I loved that show when I was a kid, and I can't believe that someone doesn't rerun it on one of the nostalgia channels
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm Mxter Baba: moving from a large house to a small house, most of my records are in the basement right now, but I brought up all the Nilsson. 💞
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mxter Baba @4:02 Well, you just have to!
	🥁 ♥ 4:09pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Happiness (Is)" by "Anita Kerr & The Anita Kerr S... Happiness is... morning and evening. (I hope Larry gets the reference.)
	🥁 ♥ 4:10pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:09 Peanuts?
	🥁 ♥ 4:11pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:10 Yes!
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm WLSClark: Hi y'all!
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm Erica: ↳ WLSClark @4:12 Hi WLS
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Picture Postcard World" by "Definitive Rock Chorale" Michael Rashkow was an email friend for awhile.
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:12 Hey Clark!
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:13 The stuff he did with Ellie Greenwich is very cool
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm WLSClark: Hi Erica! Larry, Andrew. cant stay long, but checking out what I can.
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:13 Indeed.
	🥁 ♥ 4:15pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Just One More Chance" by "Hondells" Columbia stuff much more poppy--I like it. I say: "YES to YOU!"
	🥁 ♥ 4:15pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:15 Yes! Great flipside!
	🥁 ♥ 4:16pm WLSClark: I see you played a few fave 45s of mine: Tokens, Steff, T&R Frost! Others too. Sorry I missed!
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:16 That Steff 45 is great (great story, too)
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Loving Day" by "Status Cymbal" Ides of March actually sang 'in the Morning" on Chicago pre-teen TV show "Kiddie A Go Go." I have it on tape.
	🥁 ♥ 4:19pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:18 Not sure I know about Steff, but I have other 45 too. Where Did She Go sounds like Tom Jones a little singing? Very unique sound tho.
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Trust" by "Roger Nichols & The Small Circle Of Fr... A&M had so many one-off types that were always great! WORTH finding at Goodwill with cut out holes always. haha
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:19 He was German, came to America, recorded that 45 in Nashville with Buddy Killen, worked on the West Coast for a while then moved to Switzerland!
	🥁 ♥ 4:21pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:20 One of the truly great pop labels of the 60s
	🥁 ♥ 4:21pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:20 Maybe THAT is why his voice sounds different?
	🥁 ♥ 4:22pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:21 truly! Imagine if Herb had not had all those hits! If he hadn't we wouldn't have all those misses!
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "The Going Thing" by "The Going Thing" Came with cool pic sleeve too!
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm Brian in UK: ↳ WLSClark @4:20 Phil Ochs had a track on Pleasures of the Harbour called 'Outside a Small Circle of Friends' also on A&M. Any connection?
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @4:24 Not sure, but seems like it WOULD have something to do with his song. LOVE Phil Ochs! He and Emitt--A&M wins a prize right there!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @4:24 I played an oddball promo by Phil on my drop in show last year.
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:24 None whatsoever, great song though
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm WLSClark: Cowsills--just an excellent band/group. Could actually play unlike some other pretend-to-be.
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Brian in UK: ↳ WLSClark @4:27 Still makes me so sad the way he felt he had to end his life. He had so much to offer.
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Erica: ↳ Song: "The Rain, The Park and Other Things" by "The Cows... Was just thinking of this song the other day.
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:28 Yes! So underrated/misunderstood
	♥ 4:29pm Woo: ↳ Song: "The Rain, The Park and Other Things" by "The Cows... in the Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame! And about to enter the New England Music Hall of Fame
	🥁 ♥ 4:29pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:28 I fell in love with this song when I was 9 or 10 years old, listening to CBS-FM in New York
	🥁 ♥ 4:29pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @4:28 You've seen his documentary, I assume? There is a still photo in it where he is in our Lincoln Tv station studio (KOLN)! Couldn't believe that! Wish I had seen him perform.
	🥁 ♥ 4:30pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:29 This, we can fly, River Blue played on my record player constantly winter 67/8.
	4:30pm Vincent The Soul Chef: I play Cowsills 45s often... that last one was superb.
	🥁 ♥ 4:30pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:30 Those two are on the way!
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm Brian in UK: ↳ WLSClark @4:29 Me too. Phil's Greatest Hits is my favourite because he reveals himself. Boy in Ohio is an alltime favourite.
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Make the Music Flow" by "The Cowsills" That "Prophecy of" 45--it was like DW Washburn for Monkees. DESTROYED their career with one horrible followup.
	♥ 4:31pm Woo: I got to interview Bob Cowsill 20 years ago. Great stories. Nice guy.
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:31 The II X II album is fantastic
	4:32pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ WLSClark @4:31 I played both sides of that 45 the other night...
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Woo @4:31 That must have been cool!
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm Brian in UK: The Cowsills never really hit it over here. So each time I hear them it is the first time.
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:31 YES, the title song is a fave. Heard it first on bandstand as Rate a Record!
	🥁 ♥ 4:33pm WLSClark: ↳ Woo @4:31 They had lots of great stories fer sure. Not so good about POP, tho. haha
	🥁 ♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:32 They were entirely a singles band over here but their albums are fantastic
	🥁 ♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:33 Their documentary is sad as hell
	🥁 ♥ 4:34pm Erica: I can tell from the vocals that the Partridge Family (show and fictional band) took inspiration from the Cowsills.
	♥ 4:34pm Woo: ↳ WLSClark @4:33 Since I'm from Rhode Island they have a special place in my listening heart.
	🥁 ♥ 4:34pm WLSClark: ↳ Vincent The Soul Chef @4:32 Vincent, the thing about Prophecy is that I was 13 then and they had just had Hair and I love that, but a 13 year old did not understand what was going on there--like other pre-teen/teens.
	🥁 ♥ 4:35pm WLSClark: ↳ Woo @4:34 that's cool, Woo!
	🥁 ♥ 4:36pm WLSClark: MGM jumped on wrong side of "Love American Style" too. That theme was fab and they chose to promote other side. Stupid.
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:36 Their father mismanaged their career at a couple of important junctures, killing their momentum
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:37 He was a true jerk. second coming of Murray Wilson!
	♥ 4:37pm Woo: Cowsills do an interesting take on Silver Threads and Golden Needles. Bob said Waddy Wachtel came up with the arrangement. They lip-synched it on Music Scene (with host David Steinberg)
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm WLSClark: ↳ Woo @4:37 That's the A side I despise vs "Love Am Style." RIVER BLUE!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Woo @4:37 They were moving in a very interesting direction when it all fell apart
	🥁 ♥ 4:39pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:39 Yes. They actually did "IIxII" on Playboy After dark, if you can believe that!
	♥ 4:40pm Woo: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:39 They're still going! Unfortunately they're part of the scam called the Happy Together tour. But it's a living. I call it a scam because "The Turtles" are now Mark Volman and Ron Dante. No Kaylan-no Turtles.
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Woo @4:40 I don't think for long, Volman has dementia
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm WLSClark: ↳ Woo @4:40 Oh well. HERE, local Tv going nuts promoting FAKE Guess Who coming to our state fair.
	♥ 4:41pm Mike Sin: Quick immature side note -- The Cowsills have an LP in which they're standing in front of a large monolithic stone, which was released, IIRC, around the same time as "Who's Next." I always hoped the outtakes from that Cowsills photo shoot featured the "wet marks" on the big stone.
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Erica: ↳ Song: "The Fantasy World of Harry Faversham" by "The Cow... Sounds nothing like the Cowsills, more like Nillson.
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mike Sin @4:41 Now THAT would have been something.
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm WLSClark: ↳ Mike Sin @4:41 Kinda like the 2 Moby Grape covers--well, not really. haha
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm WLSClark: Sorry, gotta go, but KEEP COWSILLS in the heart! Thanks, Larry and all.
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:43 Bye Clark!
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm Erica: Later WLS
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm WLSClark: By Erica. WE CAN FLLLLLYYYYYY!
	♥ 4:45pm Webhamster Henry: John Cowsill recently sang with the Loser's Lounge 30th anniversary Bacharach show! www.bapresley.com...
	🥁 ♥ 4:45pm Brian in UK: ↳ Mike Sin @4:41 It had been raining, selectively.
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Erica: 🥛
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Webhamster Henry @4:45 Isn't he married to Vicki Peterson of the Bangles?
	4:47pm Moog1 Radio: Holy Vinnie Bell Batman!
	🥁 ♥ 4:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Moog1 Radio @4:47 Hey Kurt!
	🥁 ♥ 4:47pm Sem: Larry, thanks for this soundtrack. Head down in some work, listening along, and having teenage years flashbacks, on repeat. It's like a trip without ever having to leave the barn. Really, wonderful. Seeya next time.
	♥ 4:48pm Discotech Underground: Hey Larry! It's a MILK DAY! Stick around for Discotech Underground after Testify on the DRUMMER Stream! wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Sem @4:47 Glad you dug it, Sem!
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:48 Hey Kip!
	4:49pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Song: "Gotta Get Away From It All" by "The Cowsills" Love this one!
	♥ 4:55pm Andrew in Toronto: What another terrific episode! Thanks, Larry!
	4:55pm bradford: Many thanks, Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Erica: Thanks Larry for the soft sounds.
	♥ 4:55pm Woo: Thanks for the Cowsills! They make me happy...happy...happy! Check out their album Global from 1998. Worth it just for Susan's vocals.
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Mxter Baba: omx you're welcome and thank you and thanks to everyone who keeps this rolling!!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Yvang: Thanks Larry for the dreamy tunes!
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Funky16Corners: Thanks everyone!
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Erica: Great show!
	4:55pm Vincent The Soul Chef: Cheers, and thanks as always :)
	🥁 ♥ 4:56pm Funky16Corners: THANK YOU THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

	🥁 ♥ 3:22pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Vincent The Soul Chef @3:22 Hey Vincent!
	🥁 ♥ 3:27pm Erica: Your welcome Larry!
	3:28pm still b/p: Was playing my profoundly half-assed single-guitar-string version of Mannix theme just a little while ago. In "Where Angels Go, Trouble Follows," a profoundly half-assed single-ply effort is made to reflect changing perspectives on social issues and religious authority.
	🥁 ♥ 3:28pm Brian in UK: Two turntables & a microphone. Let's go Larry. Oh you started already!!
	♥ 3:30pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "2002 (A Hit Song)" by "Free Design" always love the free design!
	🥁 ♥ 3:32pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @3:28 Hey Brian!
	♥ 3:33pm Webhamster Henry: I like it when the Drummer Stream goes a little bit Sheena.
	🥁 ♥ 3:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ still b/p @3:28 Hey SBP! It had Stella Stevens as a nun, so there's that.
	♥ 3:34pm Webhamster Henry: If you're doing commercials, there's a massive number of Coke commercials by major acts!
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Erica: ↳ Song: "The Going Thing" by "The Going Thing" I saw a commercial for Ford 1970 with a girl singing that exact jingle.
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Webhamster Henry @3:33 YTRavel back through the archives. I play this stuff all the time!
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:34 That was from the Ford promotional album.
	♥ 3:35pm Webhamster Henry: Yeah I know! It's part of the testification!
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Erica: ↳ Webhamster Henry @3:34 Which you can hear on the Rock n Soul stream.
	🥁 ♥ 3:37pm Funky16Corners: Jim Weatherly from the Gordian Knot wrote Midnight Train to Georgia and Neither One of Us Wants To Be The First To Say Goodbye for Gladys Knight
	🥁 ♥ 3:52pm Funky16Corners: This is Seals and Crofts in an early incarnation
	🥁 ♥ 3:54pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Beverly Hills" by "Uncle Sound" Uncle Sound?
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:54 Yup
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:55 Just looked it up on YouTube.
	🥁 ♥ 3:56pm Mxter Baba: NNIILLSSSSOONN!!!!
	🥁 ♥ 3:57pm Mxter Baba: I'm reading the Nilsson bio right now—it's slow going, what with all the nerdy production details and heartbreaking experiences
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mxter Baba @3:57 Oh, it's SO SAD
	🥁 ♥ 3:58pm Mxter Baba: ↳ Song: "Best Friend" by "Puppet" watched "The COurtship of Eddie's Father" as a child, but not sonce then. Didn't remember that Nilsson sang incidental narrations in between scenes for the first 8 episodes! Want to go back and watch those.
	🥁 ♥ 3:59pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mxter Baba @3:58 I loved that show when I was a kid, and I can't believe that someone doesn't rerun it on one of the nostalgia channels
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm Mxter Baba: moving from a large house to a small house, most of my records are in the basement right now, but I brought up all the Nilsson. 💞
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mxter Baba @4:02 Well, you just have to!
	🥁 ♥ 4:09pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Happiness (Is)" by "Anita Kerr & The Anita Kerr S... Happiness is... morning and evening. (I hope Larry gets the reference.)
	🥁 ♥ 4:10pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:09 Peanuts?
	🥁 ♥ 4:11pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:10 Yes!
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm WLSClark: Hi y'all!
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm Erica: ↳ WLSClark @4:12 Hi WLS
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Picture Postcard World" by "Definitive Rock Chorale" Michael Rashkow was an email friend for awhile.
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:12 Hey Clark!
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:13 The stuff he did with Ellie Greenwich is very cool
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm WLSClark: Hi Erica! Larry, Andrew. cant stay long, but checking out what I can.
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:13 Indeed.
	🥁 ♥ 4:15pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Just One More Chance" by "Hondells" Columbia stuff much more poppy--I like it. I say: "YES to YOU!"
	🥁 ♥ 4:15pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:15 Yes! Great flipside!
	🥁 ♥ 4:16pm WLSClark: I see you played a few fave 45s of mine: Tokens, Steff, T&R Frost! Others too. Sorry I missed!
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:16 That Steff 45 is great (great story, too)
	🥁 ♥ 4:18pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Loving Day" by "Status Cymbal" Ides of March actually sang 'in the Morning" on Chicago pre-teen TV show "Kiddie A Go Go." I have it on tape.
	🥁 ♥ 4:19pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:18 Not sure I know about Steff, but I have other 45 too. Where Did She Go sounds like Tom Jones a little singing? Very unique sound tho.
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Trust" by "Roger Nichols & The Small Circle Of Fr... A&M had so many one-off types that were always great! WORTH finding at Goodwill with cut out holes always. haha
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:19 He was German, came to America, recorded that 45 in Nashville with Buddy Killen, worked on the West Coast for a while then moved to Switzerland!
	🥁 ♥ 4:21pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:20 One of the truly great pop labels of the 60s
	🥁 ♥ 4:21pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:20 Maybe THAT is why his voice sounds different?
	🥁 ♥ 4:22pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:21 truly! Imagine if Herb had not had all those hits! If he hadn't we wouldn't have all those misses!
	🥁 ♥ 4:23pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "The Going Thing" by "The Going Thing" Came with cool pic sleeve too!
	🥁 ♥ 4:24pm Brian in UK: ↳ WLSClark @4:20 Phil Ochs had a track on Pleasures of the Harbour called 'Outside a Small Circle of Friends' also on A&M. Any connection?
	🥁 ♥ 4:26pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @4:24 Not sure, but seems like it WOULD have something to do with his song. LOVE Phil Ochs! He and Emitt--A&M wins a prize right there!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @4:24 I played an oddball promo by Phil on my drop in show last year.
	🥁 ♥ 4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:24 None whatsoever, great song though
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm WLSClark: Cowsills--just an excellent band/group. Could actually play unlike some other pretend-to-be.
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Brian in UK: ↳ WLSClark @4:27 Still makes me so sad the way he felt he had to end his life. He had so much to offer.
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Erica: ↳ Song: "The Rain, The Park and Other Things" by "The Cows... Was just thinking of this song the other day.
	🥁 ♥ 4:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:28 Yes! So underrated/misunderstood
	♥ 4:29pm Woo: ↳ Song: "The Rain, The Park and Other Things" by "The Cows... in the Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame! And about to enter the New England Music Hall of Fame
	🥁 ♥ 4:29pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:28 I fell in love with this song when I was 9 or 10 years old, listening to CBS-FM in New York
	🥁 ♥ 4:29pm WLSClark: ↳ Brian in UK @4:28 You've seen his documentary, I assume? There is a still photo in it where he is in our Lincoln Tv station studio (KOLN)! Couldn't believe that! Wish I had seen him perform.
	🥁 ♥ 4:30pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:29 This, we can fly, River Blue played on my record player constantly winter 67/8.
	4:30pm Vincent The Soul Chef: I play Cowsills 45s often... that last one was superb.
	🥁 ♥ 4:30pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:30 Those two are on the way!
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm Brian in UK: ↳ WLSClark @4:29 Me too. Phil's Greatest Hits is my favourite because he reveals himself. Boy in Ohio is an alltime favourite.
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Make the Music Flow" by "The Cowsills" That "Prophecy of" 45--it was like DW Washburn for Monkees. DESTROYED their career with one horrible followup.
	♥ 4:31pm Woo: I got to interview Bob Cowsill 20 years ago. Great stories. Nice guy.
	🥁 ♥ 4:31pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:31 The II X II album is fantastic
	4:32pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ WLSClark @4:31 I played both sides of that 45 the other night...
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Woo @4:31 That must have been cool!
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm Brian in UK: The Cowsills never really hit it over here. So each time I hear them it is the first time.
	🥁 ♥ 4:32pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:31 YES, the title song is a fave. Heard it first on bandstand as Rate a Record!
	🥁 ♥ 4:33pm WLSClark: ↳ Woo @4:31 They had lots of great stories fer sure. Not so good about POP, tho. haha
	🥁 ♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @4:32 They were entirely a singles band over here but their albums are fantastic
	🥁 ♥ 4:33pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:33 Their documentary is sad as hell
	🥁 ♥ 4:34pm Erica: I can tell from the vocals that the Partridge Family (show and fictional band) took inspiration from the Cowsills.
	♥ 4:34pm Woo: ↳ WLSClark @4:33 Since I'm from Rhode Island they have a special place in my listening heart.
	🥁 ♥ 4:34pm WLSClark: ↳ Vincent The Soul Chef @4:32 Vincent, the thing about Prophecy is that I was 13 then and they had just had Hair and I love that, but a 13 year old did not understand what was going on there--like other pre-teen/teens.
	🥁 ♥ 4:35pm WLSClark: ↳ Woo @4:34 that's cool, Woo!
	🥁 ♥ 4:36pm WLSClark: MGM jumped on wrong side of "Love American Style" too. That theme was fab and they chose to promote other side. Stupid.
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:36 Their father mismanaged their career at a couple of important junctures, killing their momentum
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:37 He was a true jerk. second coming of Murray Wilson!
	♥ 4:37pm Woo: Cowsills do an interesting take on Silver Threads and Golden Needles. Bob said Waddy Wachtel came up with the arrangement. They lip-synched it on Music Scene (with host David Steinberg)
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm WLSClark: ↳ Woo @4:37 That's the A side I despise vs "Love Am Style." RIVER BLUE!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Woo @4:37 They were moving in a very interesting direction when it all fell apart
	🥁 ♥ 4:39pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:39 Yes. They actually did "IIxII" on Playboy After dark, if you can believe that!
	♥ 4:40pm Woo: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:39 They're still going! Unfortunately they're part of the scam called the Happy Together tour. But it's a living. I call it a scam because "The Turtles" are now Mark Volman and Ron Dante. No Kaylan-no Turtles.
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Woo @4:40 I don't think for long, Volman has dementia
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm WLSClark: ↳ Woo @4:40 Oh well. HERE, local Tv going nuts promoting FAKE Guess Who coming to our state fair.
	♥ 4:41pm Mike Sin: Quick immature side note -- The Cowsills have an LP in which they're standing in front of a large monolithic stone, which was released, IIRC, around the same time as "Who's Next." I always hoped the outtakes from that Cowsills photo shoot featured the "wet marks" on the big stone.
	🥁 ♥ 4:41pm Erica: ↳ Song: "The Fantasy World of Harry Faversham" by "The Cow... Sounds nothing like the Cowsills, more like Nillson.
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mike Sin @4:41 Now THAT would have been something.
	🥁 ♥ 4:42pm WLSClark: ↳ Mike Sin @4:41 Kinda like the 2 Moby Grape covers--well, not really. haha
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm WLSClark: Sorry, gotta go, but KEEP COWSILLS in the heart! Thanks, Larry and all.
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:43 Bye Clark!
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm Erica: Later WLS
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm WLSClark: By Erica. WE CAN FLLLLLYYYYYY!
	♥ 4:45pm Webhamster Henry: John Cowsill recently sang with the Loser's Lounge 30th anniversary Bacharach show! www.bapresley.com...
	🥁 ♥ 4:45pm Brian in UK: ↳ Mike Sin @4:41 It had been raining, selectively.
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Erica: 🥛
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Webhamster Henry @4:45 Isn't he married to Vicki Peterson of the Bangles?
	4:47pm Moog1 Radio: Holy Vinnie Bell Batman!
	🥁 ♥ 4:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Moog1 Radio @4:47 Hey Kurt!
	🥁 ♥ 4:47pm Sem: Larry, thanks for this soundtrack. Head down in some work, listening along, and having teenage years flashbacks, on repeat. It's like a trip without ever having to leave the barn. Really, wonderful. Seeya next time.
	♥ 4:48pm Discotech Underground: Hey Larry! It's a MILK DAY! Stick around for Discotech Underground after Testify on the DRUMMER Stream! wfmu.org...

	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:48 Hey Kip!
	4:49pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Song: "Gotta Get Away From It All" by "The Cowsills" Love this one!
	♥ 4:55pm Andrew in Toronto: What another terrific episode! Thanks, Larry!
	4:55pm bradford: Many thanks, Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Erica: Thanks Larry for the soft sounds.
	♥ 4:55pm Woo: Thanks for the Cowsills! They make me happy...happy...happy! Check out their album Global from 1998. Worth it just for Susan's vocals.
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Mxter Baba: omx you're welcome and thank you and thanks to everyone who keeps this rolling!!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Yvang: Thanks Larry for the dreamy tunes!
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Funky16Corners: Thanks everyone!
	🥁 ♥ 4:55pm Erica: Great show!
