	👻 9:08am Brian in UK: annie also a very good book. Len Deighton was also a good cook. That is maybe why Harry cooks.

	9:10am northguineahills: Midnight Cowboy sndtrk!
	9:11am Sem Chumbo: Good morning, Joe, and hello, McGaskoes, flung far and wide around the wide, wide world. Going deep on the movie music. Two enthusiastic thumbs up!

	👻 9:11am Ken From Hyde Park: Every Monday is Yips Monday.
	9:13am Brendan: The Group sounds a little like The Association.
	9:13am northguineahills: This is where Stereolab got the word "The Groop".
	9:14am annie: @brian: i really tried to read the spy-stories genre of books, the closest i ever got was gobbling up all the sherlock holmes i could.
	9:14am Ewe Alone: Good morning Joe and all. Still thinking about that interview you did with Sachiko Kanenobu. Too soon to play anything by her? Hope not :)
	9:14am V Priceless: heya Joe!
	9:16am Joe McG: Hey, everybody, and welcome to the show! We're starting out cinematic today to match the dramatic vistas I saw this morning on the way in. What a sky!
	👻 9:16am NotARealDoctor: Good morning everyone! So busy today! Have to get extra work done since it's only a 2 1/2 day week here at the office!
	👻 9:17am NotARealDoctor: Thanks for helping keep my mind off it, Joe!
	9:18am annie: i am on a FB group for photo-challenges, a burgeoning thing there; today's challenge is "Communication". anyone have any bright ideas?
	9:19am Nymor: Monday - one of my 7 favourite days on WFMU - good afternoon from the UK. (Having just googled it) I now know the instrument on the Ipcreess File track is a Cymbalom. Always enjoy your show - thanks Joe
	9:19am The Oscar: Never seen Phaedra, but it's starting to sound like I should change that.
	9:20am queems: good morning! it's nice to listen to the show while not at work for once
	9:24am steveo: i feel glad for Jimmie Haskell that he was probably old enough when Leave it to Beaver came out that he didn't catch too much flak.
	9:26am Cheri Pi: Heya Joe and the gang
	9:31am Joe McG: Heya, Cheri! @Oscar: That ending monologue is a whopper!
	👻 9:31am doctorjazz: Saw the billboard on the home page-looks like Manson isn't available for FMU promos or broadcasts any more...
	👻 9:34am doctorjazz: Haven't heard this Al Kooper in many moons.
	9:36am John in Bklyn: Jeremiah, that's a name you don't hear much these days! Morning Joe and Noisers!
	9:41am Neil M: Incredible soundtrack set. The Landlord Phaedra. So many great calls.
	9:41am melinda: Hi Joe!
	9:43am melinda: Bummed to have missed the soundtrack set but happy to be listening in my car, was afraid I'd left my mobile hotspot at home.
	9:43am John in Bklyn: Wasn't Paul Sand on The Carol Burnett Show, too?
	9:43am WWFSMD: Monica! Oh Joy! Oh, Rapture unforseen!
	9:44am melinda: I remember Paul Sand and Ron Leibman
	9:45am John in Bklyn: No justice done to Blake in real life. He's probably golfing with O.J. now.
	9:45am The Oscar: Wasn't Zachariah written by some or all of the Firesign Theatre? I was always curious to see it...
	9:47am Sem Chumbo: Tiger Lily was a hilarious adaptation, supplying incongruous dialogue for a Japanese spy movie. Woody, Woody, Woody: how we loved you early funny movies.
	9:49am Joe McG: Thanks, Neil, I enjoyed that! @John: Yes, I remember Paul Sand on Carol Burnett!
	9:52am Bobby Whirlwind: Hello Joe and all. Loving this Hater track :)
	9:54am John in Bklyn: Hater sounded too jangly and nice to be called Hater.
	9:56am MD: "Charlie,Charlie Call us up Charlie!!!!"
	9:57am Dennis Diken: man, I just love the "Tiger Lily" sound track, "Respoken" is really an overlooked Spoonful song. great to hear the Moonglows, a fabulous vocal group
	9:58am MD: Good Morning all! Welcome to a world of Balance. Manson....dead...... Trump President
	9:59am coelacanth∅: 'morning Joe and others
	9:59am coelacanth∅: i like this all female rock and roll quartet.
	10:01am KP: Happy Turkey Week, Joe!
	10:03am Joe McG: Thanks, KP! Later on I'll play the most depressing Thanksgiving song of all-time.
	10:04am melinda: Paul Sand was also on the MTM show. Later was the psychiatrist on St. Elsewhere.
	10:07am djsheilab: Oh my lord! This “Raggedy Ann” song is GENIUS.
	10:07am Dennis Diken: you just made my day Joe! thanks for the spin!
	10:08am Brendan: Creepy!
	10:09am Parq: Anybody else think Bill sounds like Andre Williams here.
	👻 10:09am NotARealDoctor: This is heavy as hell.
	10:09am The Oscar: Whoooaaaa. I don't think I ever expected that a) anyone would cover this song, b) BILL WITHERS would cover this song, or c) Bill Withers would cover this song and it would sound like THIS.
	10:09am Joe McG: Nice work, Dennis! @SheilaB: Amazing, right??
	10:09am northguineahills: Wait, new Bill Withers!!!!
	10:09am northguineahills: What The Oscar said!
	10:10am TDK60: Hello. West Virginian Withers.
	10:10am annie: i have always appreciated paul sand's work; and he wasn't so bad on the eyes either
	👻 10:10am NotARealDoctor: Wait this is new from Bill Withers!?!
	10:11am melinda: Someone else did Raggedy Ann first?!
	10:11am coelacanth∅: Mr.Withers, 79. stick around a bit longer please.
	10:11am matt in Peapack: Shoutout to Raggedy Ann
	10:11am Joe McG: Yes, it's kind of crazy that he would come out of retirement to record a Little Jimmy Dickens monologue, but life is strange!
	10:12am melinda: Ok I see now.
	10:13am βrian: If I had caught the earlier bus I would've heard Bill Withers.
	10:19am Joe McG: @Brian: The glory of the archive awaits you. :)
	10:21am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe and all!
	10:23am northguineahills: I don't know what T.J. Hustler Metaphysical Synthesized Orchestra is, but I'm digging!
	10:24am melinda: @ngh same here
	10:28am steveo: groovin' on a monday pre-afternoon
	10:32am coelacanth∅: tj hustler... is familiar and i think it might be on "the happy listeners' guide to mind control". (one of Ken's premiums)
	10:32am TDK60: I know one of the musicians on that Rhinestone album! Todd Burge - solo folky.
	10:35am crateslinger: Fuck Manson. Prick.
	10:35am crateslinger: sorry for the words...
	10:35am Davee: 45s excellent
	10:36am —Ike: I missed The She's (ugh) but I hope "Sorry" was a song apologizing for molesting the English language like that. I suppose they wanted to be sure nobody would pronounce them "shezz" or "shesh" but it's still stupid.
	10:37am coelacanth∅: manson,eh. rest in piss. he's a peanut though. i'll dance again when trump, pense, etc and the entire bush machine (etc) leaves this plane.
	10:38am Joe McG: Is Manson dead?
	10:39am crateslinger: Yeah, but NOBODY pretends they're cool.
	10:39am coelacanth∅: apparently. 83.
	10:39am Marc Francis: I feel like this song should be accompanied with a zany 80's movie party scene taking place in a ski chalet.
	10:39am crateslinger: Yeah he's dead.
	10:40am Joe McG: I'm not going to play "Cease to Exist," as appropriate as it may seem.
	10:40am coelacanth∅: haha!
	10:41am The Oscar: I wonder if his weirdo "fiancee" from a couple years ago is going to make another play for his corpse. That was one of the most WTF news stories in recent memory. (Also I cannot WAIT for Ken's show this week).
	10:42am northguineahills: Paris Pilot has a nice Byrds charm to them.
	10:43am Passaic River Blues: @The Oscar: absolutely. Hope Ken's laptop is back in gear because he's got a lot of work to do Wednesday morning.
	10:45am coelacanth∅: Ike @10.36 -but practically all of wikipedia has been molested to use plurals where referring to a singular. (ie "pink floyd WERE a band") ...bigger fish to fry.
	10:46am steveo: I recently learned that Lauper wrote the songs for the Kinky Boots musical.
	10:47am coelacanth∅: (grammatical fish; a genetically modified species)
	10:48am The Oscar: Whatever happened to the little "uh-oh" hiccup female pop singers did in the '80s? I feel like a LOT of singers did it for a few years (Lauper, Lene Lovich, Dale Bozzio...) and then it just disappeared. You'd think Lady Gaga or someone would have brought it back by now.
	10:48am steveo: speaking of, nice new avatar...
	10:49am coelacanth∅: sometimes i forget how good Cyndi Lauper often was.
	10:49am crateslinger: Disco sounds so good now.
	10:54am PKNY: I know that Betty had an anti-secretary song, but she's got beef with babysitters too?!?!
	10:54am TDK60: I wonder if there really is a bardo. If so, those folks coelacanth mentions may have some surprises in the bardo.
	10:56am Okay, I'm going to hell for this: I'm glad you're having a good time, honey, but I can't talk now. I've got the babysitter coming.
	10:59am TDK60: It's too bad, but I must leave the internet. Thanks for the tunes, Joe. See y'all.
	11:03am Blix: Wow. What a ridiculous cover. They really put the demented in Demensions.
	11:09am Ochre Ogre: Good Monday morning Joe. Funny Buddhist Christmasy song, sense no makes.
	11:09am Brendan: The Pretenders invoke the Renge Kyo chant in a song too. I have tried chanting Nam myo renge kyo after hitting my thumb with a hammer. Somehow I am not able too embrace oneness and find an alternative phrase more helpful.
	11:10am pullmyhair: I loved the lighthouse song and would love to find that to share with others, thanks for sharing it with us!
	11:11am Switchblade Batmat: When and where is the up with people thing? That sounds amazing
	11:12am melinda: Micah's last Up With People t-giving was a fill-in, and there were some listeners disturbed by the unexpected change of programming/content. It was funny.
	11:17am Ochre Ogre: Brendan- Yes, continuous swearing works for me in a situation like that.
	11:17am Dean: Oh wa, ta goo, Siam?
	11:22am KP: Nice autumnal acoustic piece here, joe
	11:25am Joe McG: @KP: I must admit, I'm feeling very autumnal musically lately.
	11:25am queems: this one sounds really good outside in my parents' yard
	11:25am Brendan: @Ochre - to be sure. The reminder that life is suffering is already apparent in the misguided hammer blow and need not be reinforced through said chant . Instead i find a free form verse of profanities sung scat style highly effective in achieving enlightenment.
	11:27am northguineahills: I liked that Asaran Earth Trio, it sounded like it was recorded in the late 60s.
	11:28am Brendan: I got a good vibe from that Esmerine track Joe.
	11:30am Joe McG: @Brendan: Real nice. Towards the end it reminded me of that Carl Orff theme from, oh what is it? "Badlands."
	11:36am Davee: Boing, boing!
	11:36am ⓘⓚⓔ: Woah, anybody read this book about the guy with the top single of 1966? I just stumbled across this at work: smile.amazon.com...
	11:37am Joe McG: @Davee: It's sort of the jawharp at the beach equivalent of the Yip-Yips!
	11:37am Greg from ZONE 5: Pretty, pretty set here, Joey
	11:38am Joe McG: Thanks, Greggy! Nice to see you the other day, as ever.
	11:39am northguineahills: I've been liking what I've heard of this Laura Baird album.
	11:40am Brendan: @Joe . Yes - it really picked up steam there. Love me some marimba or vibes in my music. I was thinking/reminded of some great vibes in a pop song “Ed’s Funky Diner” 12” inch remix that I wore in the 80s
	11:40am The Oscar: @Ike Never read the book, but I did learn of his sordid history in a casual "What ever happened to..." search. That looks like a must-read!
	11:40am northguineahills: @Ike, I heard something to that effect of him, but didn't know as many details.
	11:41am Brendan: I literally wore that record out - either that or my 1 pound tone arm
	11:41am coelacanth∅: so, if Bill Withers would come out of retirement, maybe so will Anne Briggs.
	11:41am slugluv1313: good morning, everyone! wonderful show, Joe! very pretty, this Laura Baird song -- shades of Sandy Denny -- ??
	11:41am slugluv1313: good morning, everyone! wonderful show, Joe! very pretty, this Laura Baird song -- shades of Sandy Denny -- ??
	11:42am Davee: I hear an echo!
	11:43am northguineahills: coel is full of good ideas that we should all endorse.
	11:43am Joe McG: @slugluv: You're reading my mind! :)
	11:44am northguineahills: Sandy Denny, shades of Laura Baird.
	11:47am slugluv1313: @ Ike -- YOW!!! i remember "Ballad of a Green Beret" from when i was a little kid -- kinda gave me the creeps, even then! but i had NO idea about what happened afterwards; definitely a must read!
	11:47am coelacanth∅: thanks ngh! i'm all behind me, until i'm not... but others should think some of my ideas through thoroughly before endorsing them. (just an idea)
	11:48am slugluv1313: thanks, Joe! gosh, i miss Sandy Denny
	11:49am V Priceless: Great show, Joe - thanks!
	11:50am maestroso: Loving this set. Do you have anything with Maddy Prior?
	11:50am melinda: Digging this set.
	11:52am Brendan: Great seasonal Sandy song. Feeling November now!
	11:53am Listener Alexandra: Stunning show today, Joe!
	11:53am Brendan: The gales of November came early yesterday.
	11:55am Joe McG: Thanks, Alex and everyone! Ending the show with this Thanksgiving prayer. I hope you all have a nice holiday if you're in the U.S.; have a great week if you're elsewhere! I'll see you next Monday. :)
	11:55am Lewis: @brendan- nice...
	👻 11:56am 12539: Thanks, Joe!
	11:56am northguineahills: @coel: When I try to get behind myself, I just go in circles.
	11:56am BronwynB: great show joe!!!
	11:57am steveo: thanks joe for the show; enjoy your Thanksgiving
	11:58am northguineahills: thanksssssssssssssss Joe!
	11:59am Brendan: @Joe - we are thankful for the feast we have just received.
	11:59am coelacanth∅: Joe, i can't have a great week if i'm in the u.s.? ...yeah i guess - probably not.
	👻 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: I read a story that 15 people were trampled in Morocco the other day at a food distribution place. How thankful we have stores with a bounty of food here.
	11:59am slugluv1313: just hearing this now -- Charles Manson has finally kicked the bucket!
	12:00pm slugluv1313: Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!!!
	12:00pm steveo: i heard greased lightning on the radio once and they sung the word shit!!!!
	1:58pm Ajax: The She's started when they were like 14 so you gotta cut them some slack RE punctuation. Also I asked them once why they were so good. The answer? Practice!

	9:04am djsheilab: Starting off nice n’ moody! Love this one. Morning Joe + everyone!

	9:06am Davee: GM uncle Joe. Good start this morning. I cannot wait for 10:30.

	👻 9:11am Ken From Hyde Park: Every Monday is Yips Monday.
	9:13am Brendan: The Group sounds a little like The Association.
	9:13am northguineahills: This is where Stereolab got the word "The Groop".
	9:14am annie: @brian: i really tried to read the spy-stories genre of books, the closest i ever got was gobbling up all the sherlock holmes i could.
	9:14am Ewe Alone: Good morning Joe and all. Still thinking about that interview you did with Sachiko Kanenobu. Too soon to play anything by her? Hope not :)
	9:14am V Priceless: heya Joe!
	9:16am Joe McG: Hey, everybody, and welcome to the show! We're starting out cinematic today to match the dramatic vistas I saw this morning on the way in. What a sky!

	9:19am Nymor: Monday - one of my 7 favourite days on WFMU - good afternoon from the UK. (Having just googled it) I now know the instrument on the Ipcreess File track is a Cymbalom. Always enjoy your show - thanks Joe
	9:19am The Oscar: Never seen Phaedra, but it's starting to sound like I should change that.
	9:20am queems: good morning! it's nice to listen to the show while not at work for once
	9:24am steveo: i feel glad for Jimmie Haskell that he was probably old enough when Leave it to Beaver came out that he didn't catch too much flak.
	9:26am Cheri Pi: Heya Joe and the gang
	9:31am Joe McG: Heya, Cheri! @Oscar: That ending monologue is a whopper!
	👻 9:31am doctorjazz: Saw the billboard on the home page-looks like Manson isn't available for FMU promos or broadcasts any more...
	👻 9:34am doctorjazz: Haven't heard this Al Kooper in many moons.
	9:36am John in Bklyn: Jeremiah, that's a name you don't hear much these days! Morning Joe and Noisers!
	9:41am Neil M: Incredible soundtrack set. The Landlord Phaedra. So many great calls.
	9:41am melinda: Hi Joe!
	9:43am melinda: Bummed to have missed the soundtrack set but happy to be listening in my car, was afraid I'd left my mobile hotspot at home.
	9:43am John in Bklyn: Wasn't Paul Sand on The Carol Burnett Show, too?
	9:43am WWFSMD: Monica! Oh Joy! Oh, Rapture unforseen!
	9:44am melinda: I remember Paul Sand and Ron Leibman
	9:45am John in Bklyn: No justice done to Blake in real life. He's probably golfing with O.J. now.
	9:45am The Oscar: Wasn't Zachariah written by some or all of the Firesign Theatre? I was always curious to see it...
	9:47am Sem Chumbo: Tiger Lily was a hilarious adaptation, supplying incongruous dialogue for a Japanese spy movie. Woody, Woody, Woody: how we loved you early funny movies.
	9:49am Joe McG: Thanks, Neil, I enjoyed that! @John: Yes, I remember Paul Sand on Carol Burnett!
	9:52am Bobby Whirlwind: Hello Joe and all. Loving this Hater track :)
	9:54am John in Bklyn: Hater sounded too jangly and nice to be called Hater.
	9:56am MD: "Charlie,Charlie Call us up Charlie!!!!"
	9:57am Dennis Diken: man, I just love the "Tiger Lily" sound track, "Respoken" is really an overlooked Spoonful song. great to hear the Moonglows, a fabulous vocal group
	9:58am MD: Good Morning all! Welcome to a world of Balance. Manson....dead...... Trump President
	9:59am coelacanth∅: 'morning Joe and others
	9:59am coelacanth∅: i like this all female rock and roll quartet.
	10:01am KP: Happy Turkey Week, Joe!
	10:03am Joe McG: Thanks, KP! Later on I'll play the most depressing Thanksgiving song of all-time.
	10:04am melinda: Paul Sand was also on the MTM show. Later was the psychiatrist on St. Elsewhere.
	10:07am djsheilab: Oh my lord! This “Raggedy Ann” song is GENIUS.
	10:07am Dennis Diken: you just made my day Joe! thanks for the spin!
	10:08am Brendan: Creepy!
	10:09am Parq: Anybody else think Bill sounds like Andre Williams here.
	👻 10:09am NotARealDoctor: This is heavy as hell.
	10:09am The Oscar: Whoooaaaa. I don't think I ever expected that a) anyone would cover this song, b) BILL WITHERS would cover this song, or c) Bill Withers would cover this song and it would sound like THIS.
	10:09am Joe McG: Nice work, Dennis! @SheilaB: Amazing, right??
	10:09am northguineahills: Wait, new Bill Withers!!!!
	10:09am northguineahills: What The Oscar said!
	10:10am TDK60: Hello. West Virginian Withers.
	10:10am annie: i have always appreciated paul sand's work; and he wasn't so bad on the eyes either
	👻 10:10am NotARealDoctor: Wait this is new from Bill Withers!?!
	10:11am melinda: Someone else did Raggedy Ann first?!
	10:11am coelacanth∅: Mr.Withers, 79. stick around a bit longer please.
	10:11am matt in Peapack: Shoutout to Raggedy Ann
	10:11am Joe McG: Yes, it's kind of crazy that he would come out of retirement to record a Little Jimmy Dickens monologue, but life is strange!
	10:12am melinda: Ok I see now.
	10:13am βrian: If I had caught the earlier bus I would've heard Bill Withers.
	10:19am Joe McG: @Brian: The glory of the archive awaits you. :)
	10:21am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe and all!
	10:23am northguineahills: I don't know what T.J. Hustler Metaphysical Synthesized Orchestra is, but I'm digging!
	10:24am melinda: @ngh same here
	10:28am steveo: groovin' on a monday pre-afternoon
	10:32am coelacanth∅: tj hustler... is familiar and i think it might be on "the happy listeners' guide to mind control". (one of Ken's premiums)
	10:32am TDK60: I know one of the musicians on that Rhinestone album! Todd Burge - solo folky.
	10:35am crateslinger: Fuck Manson. Prick.
	10:35am crateslinger: sorry for the words...
	10:35am Davee: 45s excellent
	10:36am —Ike: I missed The She's (ugh) but I hope "Sorry" was a song apologizing for molesting the English language like that. I suppose they wanted to be sure nobody would pronounce them "shezz" or "shesh" but it's still stupid.
	10:37am coelacanth∅: manson,eh. rest in piss. he's a peanut though. i'll dance again when trump, pense, etc and the entire bush machine (etc) leaves this plane.
	10:38am Joe McG: Is Manson dead?
	10:39am crateslinger: Yeah, but NOBODY pretends they're cool.
	10:39am coelacanth∅: apparently. 83.
	10:39am Marc Francis: I feel like this song should be accompanied with a zany 80's movie party scene taking place in a ski chalet.
	10:39am crateslinger: Yeah he's dead.
	10:40am Joe McG: I'm not going to play "Cease to Exist," as appropriate as it may seem.
	10:40am coelacanth∅: haha!
	10:41am The Oscar: I wonder if his weirdo "fiancee" from a couple years ago is going to make another play for his corpse. That was one of the most WTF news stories in recent memory. (Also I cannot WAIT for Ken's show this week).
	10:42am northguineahills: Paris Pilot has a nice Byrds charm to them.
	10:43am Passaic River Blues: @The Oscar: absolutely. Hope Ken's laptop is back in gear because he's got a lot of work to do Wednesday morning.
	10:45am coelacanth∅: Ike @10.36 -but practically all of wikipedia has been molested to use plurals where referring to a singular. (ie "pink floyd WERE a band") ...bigger fish to fry.
	10:46am steveo: I recently learned that Lauper wrote the songs for the Kinky Boots musical.
	10:47am coelacanth∅: (grammatical fish; a genetically modified species)
	10:48am The Oscar: Whatever happened to the little "uh-oh" hiccup female pop singers did in the '80s? I feel like a LOT of singers did it for a few years (Lauper, Lene Lovich, Dale Bozzio...) and then it just disappeared. You'd think Lady Gaga or someone would have brought it back by now.
	10:48am steveo: speaking of, nice new avatar...
	10:49am coelacanth∅: sometimes i forget how good Cyndi Lauper often was.
	10:49am crateslinger: Disco sounds so good now.
	10:54am PKNY: I know that Betty had an anti-secretary song, but she's got beef with babysitters too?!?!
	10:54am TDK60: I wonder if there really is a bardo. If so, those folks coelacanth mentions may have some surprises in the bardo.
	10:56am Okay, I'm going to hell for this: I'm glad you're having a good time, honey, but I can't talk now. I've got the babysitter coming.
	10:59am TDK60: It's too bad, but I must leave the internet. Thanks for the tunes, Joe. See y'all.
	11:03am Blix: Wow. What a ridiculous cover. They really put the demented in Demensions.
	11:09am Ochre Ogre: Good Monday morning Joe. Funny Buddhist Christmasy song, sense no makes.
	11:09am Brendan: The Pretenders invoke the Renge Kyo chant in a song too. I have tried chanting Nam myo renge kyo after hitting my thumb with a hammer. Somehow I am not able too embrace oneness and find an alternative phrase more helpful.
	11:10am pullmyhair: I loved the lighthouse song and would love to find that to share with others, thanks for sharing it with us!
	11:11am Switchblade Batmat: When and where is the up with people thing? That sounds amazing
	11:12am melinda: Micah's last Up With People t-giving was a fill-in, and there were some listeners disturbed by the unexpected change of programming/content. It was funny.
	11:17am Ochre Ogre: Brendan- Yes, continuous swearing works for me in a situation like that.
	11:17am Dean: Oh wa, ta goo, Siam?
	11:22am KP: Nice autumnal acoustic piece here, joe
	11:25am Joe McG: @KP: I must admit, I'm feeling very autumnal musically lately.
	11:25am queems: this one sounds really good outside in my parents' yard
	11:25am Brendan: @Ochre - to be sure. The reminder that life is suffering is already apparent in the misguided hammer blow and need not be reinforced through said chant . Instead i find a free form verse of profanities sung scat style highly effective in achieving enlightenment.
	11:27am northguineahills: I liked that Asaran Earth Trio, it sounded like it was recorded in the late 60s.
	11:28am Brendan: I got a good vibe from that Esmerine track Joe.
	11:30am Joe McG: @Brendan: Real nice. Towards the end it reminded me of that Carl Orff theme from, oh what is it? "Badlands."
	11:36am Davee: Boing, boing!
	11:36am ⓘⓚⓔ: Woah, anybody read this book about the guy with the top single of 1966? I just stumbled across this at work: smile.amazon.com...
	11:37am Joe McG: @Davee: It's sort of the jawharp at the beach equivalent of the Yip-Yips!
	11:37am Greg from ZONE 5: Pretty, pretty set here, Joey
	11:38am Joe McG: Thanks, Greggy! Nice to see you the other day, as ever.
	11:39am northguineahills: I've been liking what I've heard of this Laura Baird album.
	11:40am Brendan: @Joe . Yes - it really picked up steam there. Love me some marimba or vibes in my music. I was thinking/reminded of some great vibes in a pop song “Ed’s Funky Diner” 12” inch remix that I wore in the 80s
	11:40am The Oscar: @Ike Never read the book, but I did learn of his sordid history in a casual "What ever happened to..." search. That looks like a must-read!
	11:40am northguineahills: @Ike, I heard something to that effect of him, but didn't know as many details.
	11:41am Brendan: I literally wore that record out - either that or my 1 pound tone arm
	11:41am coelacanth∅: so, if Bill Withers would come out of retirement, maybe so will Anne Briggs.
	11:41am slugluv1313: good morning, everyone! wonderful show, Joe! very pretty, this Laura Baird song -- shades of Sandy Denny -- ??
	11:41am slugluv1313: good morning, everyone! wonderful show, Joe! very pretty, this Laura Baird song -- shades of Sandy Denny -- ??
	11:42am Davee: I hear an echo!
	11:43am northguineahills: coel is full of good ideas that we should all endorse.
	11:43am Joe McG: @slugluv: You're reading my mind! :)
	11:44am northguineahills: Sandy Denny, shades of Laura Baird.
	11:47am slugluv1313: @ Ike -- YOW!!! i remember "Ballad of a Green Beret" from when i was a little kid -- kinda gave me the creeps, even then! but i had NO idea about what happened afterwards; definitely a must read!
	11:47am coelacanth∅: thanks ngh! i'm all behind me, until i'm not... but others should think some of my ideas through thoroughly before endorsing them. (just an idea)
	11:48am slugluv1313: thanks, Joe! gosh, i miss Sandy Denny
	11:49am V Priceless: Great show, Joe - thanks!
	11:50am maestroso: Loving this set. Do you have anything with Maddy Prior?
	11:50am melinda: Digging this set.
	11:52am Brendan: Great seasonal Sandy song. Feeling November now!
	11:53am Listener Alexandra: Stunning show today, Joe!
	11:53am Brendan: The gales of November came early yesterday.
	11:55am Joe McG: Thanks, Alex and everyone! Ending the show with this Thanksgiving prayer. I hope you all have a nice holiday if you're in the U.S.; have a great week if you're elsewhere! I'll see you next Monday. :)
	11:55am Lewis: @brendan- nice...
	👻 11:56am 12539: Thanks, Joe!
	11:56am northguineahills: @coel: When I try to get behind myself, I just go in circles.
	11:56am BronwynB: great show joe!!!
	11:57am steveo: thanks joe for the show; enjoy your Thanksgiving
	11:58am northguineahills: thanksssssssssssssss Joe!
	11:59am Brendan: @Joe - we are thankful for the feast we have just received.
	11:59am coelacanth∅: Joe, i can't have a great week if i'm in the u.s.? ...yeah i guess - probably not.
	👻 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: I read a story that 15 people were trampled in Morocco the other day at a food distribution place. How thankful we have stores with a bounty of food here.
	11:59am slugluv1313: just hearing this now -- Charles Manson has finally kicked the bucket!
	12:00pm slugluv1313: Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!!!
	12:00pm steveo: i heard greased lightning on the radio once and they sung the word shit!!!!
	1:58pm Ajax: The She's started when they were like 14 so you gotta cut them some slack RE punctuation. Also I asked them once why they were so good. The answer? Practice!
