tbh the only reason half of new york goes to the farmers market is to flirt with strange vendors.

Hey Stuckey, thanks! One of my favorite Southern restaurants is called Stuckey's. Do you own those restaurants?!?!?!
Mon. 9/28/09 12:25am

Stuckey
Nope! Just a guy named (last-named) Stuckey

Interesting, I was just listening to your fill-in for Laura Cantrell on May5 5th earlier today, very impressed and then ZAM - here you are tonight.

Ha! Ian I tried to reply to you but I added the post equation wrong. Apparently 3 + 4 is not 6. Yes you're right the farmer's market is for flirting only.

I'll try listening to a Dave Mandle archive and maybe that will bring him back to life.

Ha! He's alive. I took the train to Brooklyn with him tonight when the power blew here.

this is really nice. how come i've never heard of this julie covington lady before?
Mon. 9/28/09 12:41am
From:

With just two releases, its a wonder anyone has heard of her; but this is FMU.
Mon. 9/28/09 12:42am
From:
Betsy
I know! So pretty! Sadly I know nothing about her. Just another wispy waif in the willows I guess.

wikipedia tells me she got her big break via musical theater. Godspell, and apparently the original recording of "Don't Cry For Me Argentina"--ooh hurley. the best jam. Smokey the bear verse kills me all the time.
Mon. 9/28/09 12:46am
From:
Betsy
Oh wow! Godspell. That's like Caroline Peyton but in reverse - Peyton now sings on Disney soundtracks like "Aladdin" & The Little Mermaid

my other fave musical theater lady is Sally Eaton, whose "Farewell American Tour" album has a killer opening track and a few other gems as well. really cheap too, usually a $5 record.

HUh, never heard of her! I'll have to look for that, it might be around here somewheres...

Damn, I'm taken back to the days before this kind of music was ubiquitous in car commercials.
Mon. 9/28/09 12:57am
From:
Betsy
Oh, I wish I didn't have to talk! Hi FapFap I know what you mean about the car commercials. I do love this song though
Mon. 9/28/09 12:57am

Oh, yeah, didn't mean it as a slight. Definitely turned it up. :)

I'm obsessed with the shenanigans of whoever these guys are. Check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxSmSJYbaUk

This is getting serious. Seat belts please everyone.

I am nothing if not DEADLY serious.

FYI - Aretha is "Queen of Soul", but who then is the king? According to a DVD I just watched - Solomon Burke.
Mon. 9/28/09 1:29am
From:
Betsy
Ha! Good question. I think there was an Otis Redding/Carla Thomas record where they were Kings & Queens, but only as playing cards.

"only"!! as though there's a better way to be immortalized.

Solomon does have a throne on stage when performing, where does that leave James Brown - just the "hardest working man" in showbiz?

This is what happens when I take the seatbelt off my MOUTH.
Mon. 9/28/09 1:39am

James is the Godfather of Soul. The pecking order can get confusing!

HAHAHA - one of my favorite Townshend albums, unreleased or otherwise! Great set, as always...
Mon. 9/28/09 1:53am
From:
Betsy
Oh, well I had an excellent source for that one. Nice to see you, Dan-O!
Mon. 9/28/09 2:30am

Oy gevault, really?? Oops. That's what I get for being a minister's kid from Tennessee trying to talk Jewish holidays. I should fast just for that blooper!

Oh yeah, that's the one I'm always jealous of! I guess I get Christmas, but whatevs. I want brisket
Mon. 9/28/09 2:39am
From:

brisket is the best no doubt.
Mon. 9/28/09 2:54am
From:

As is "Days" - definitely the brisket of the Kinks!
