	🥁 ♥ 10:19pm Funky16Corners: BTW KALIMBA!!!
	🥁 ♥ 10:20pm Uncle Michael: This isn't that bad.
	10:21pm still b/p: Wanted to say hurray for it, but I was apprehensive about whether it was kalimba or mbira...and froze, couldn't choose one term or the other.
	♥ 10:21pm JtotheK: hi F16C, hi everyone! i only have the earnest jackson funky black man 45, still want to find the Fried Chicken Funky DJ 45. both great!
	10:22pm geezerette: There is still a pizza joint in Santa Monica called Earth Wind & Flour.
	🥁 ♥ 10:22pm Gary: Ha
	♥ 10:23pm Kris Holmes: Earth Wind & Flour is an amazing name
	🥁 ♥ 10:23pm Funky16Corners: I would eat there.
	🥁 ♥ 10:23pm Uncle Michael: Right next door to Blood, Sweat & Beers.
	10:24pm geezerette: The crust is whole wheat.
	10:24pm still b/p: Want the staff to be in the band's wardrobe, with big pizza aprons.
	10:24pm geezerette: haha, I'd drink there.
	♥ 10:26pm Dog-Day Cicada: Kalimba, Vibraphone, and now, Harp. Sneaking in the weird instruments, eh, Larry?
	♥ 10:26pm northguineahills: Sweet Dorothy Ashby!
	10:27pm geezerette: Still b/p, didn't The Village People have a pizza chef?
	🥁 ♥ 10:27pm Funky16Corners: Thank Richard Evans!
	🥁 ♥ 10:28pm Uncle Michael: Love Richard Evans...played Wado City recently.
	🥁 ♥ 10:28pm Funky16Corners: Now onto the Varitone saxophone...
	10:32pm geezerette: this is gorgeous.
	🥁 ♥ 10:33pm Funky16Corners: Isn't it? What do you think the suits at Atlantic thought when Eddie Harris handed in this album? Was it "The kids will dig it?' or more like 'Huh?'
	10:33pm geezerette: ...& funky!
	10:34pm geezerette: a definite, "?".
	🥁 ♥ 10:34pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, very far out and unlike his previous stuff
	♥ 10:35pm coelacanth∅: greetings Larry and others - & Welcome on!
	🥁 ♥ 10:35pm Funky16Corners: Greetings!
	10:35pm still b/p: Village People sure as hell should have had! ...a guy looking like one of those chef-roglyphics on the pizza box...big chef hat, neckerchief and apron, always making the OK/delicious gesture with hand and fingers when onstage! Y - M - C -A...aaand gesture!
	♥ 10:36pm hyde: OH i should have gone to bed 15 minutes ago but i left this on and damn i haven;t heard this Hendrix tune in maybe 35 years. thanks! glad i left it on.
	🥁 ♥ 10:36pm Funky16Corners: And they'd all be named RAY
	🥁 ♥ 10:36pm doctorjazz: Cool Hendrix, not the track generally pulled out...
	♥ 10:36pm Matt F: Turned it on right exactly as "1983" was starting. An auspicious start. Welcome aboard Larry.
	🥁 ♥ 10:36pm Funky16Corners: Stay up! It'll get even better!
	🥁 ♥ 10:37pm Funky16Corners: Hey Matt!
	♥ 10:38pm coelacanth∅: i listen to this Hendrix tune at least 5 X/year since the 1980s (when i stopped listening to that album about 50X/year)
	♥ 10:39pm hyde: @coelacanth showoff :)
	🥁 ♥ 10:40pm Funky16Corners: This is what James Brown sounds like in space
	♥ 10:41pm coelacanth∅: sorry hyde! but Jimi's my main!
	🥁 ♥ 10:41pm Uncle Michael: can people hear him scream?
	♥ 10:41pm Doug Schulkind: In space, no one can hear you grunt.
	🥁 ♥ 10:42pm Funky16Corners: And this is what he sounds like in a swinging bachelor pad
	10:43pm geezerette: This show is like spinning in Disneyland Teacups under Blacklight.
	♥ 10:43pm Doug Schulkind: You know, Larry. No one else is coming live on the stream until 9am. I'm just sayin'.
	🥁 ♥ 10:43pm Funky16Corners: I'll buy that
	♥ 10:44pm northguineahills: I can't remember the last time I listened to an album twice in one year... It takes me so long to go through my music... maybe something indie poppy like stereolab or blonde redhead in the early noughts...
	♥ 10:44pm coelacanth∅: Enoch Light?!? i didn't know he had it in 'im! and that Eddie Harris was excellent. i gotta get on that.
	♥ 10:44pm hyde: @coel fair! anyway folks, if wfmu had deep pockets i might sue for all the lost sleep i may be getting past 10 pm on wed and thurs nights. but you can't get blood from a rock. and so, thanks! good night to all my pals.
	🥁 ♥ 10:44pm Uncle Michael: By the way, Doug. September 1...I'm running a little long.
	10:45pm still b/p: Looking for something quite unrelated, I came upon a poster image a few moments ago for a movie about the two dudes who produced and preached orange sunshine, and in the paper just this morning was the obituary for one of them. Freaky. I think I did orange sunshine for an amusement park day when I was 16. But it was pretty mild. My screen name gets abbreviated as SBP by people here sometimes...and now I'll be thinking "Swinging Bachelor Pad" every time.
	🥁 ♥ 10:45pm doctorjazz: Like this Hot Pants, fun! Hey, my birthday is in an hour and a quarter, Happy Birthday to me!
	♥ 10:45pm Doug Schulkind: My brother, you can run as long as you like. I owe you.
	10:45pm geezerette: Coel, yes indeed.
	🥁 ♥ 10:46pm Funky16Corners: Happy Birthday Doctor!
	♥ 10:46pm coelacanth∅: g'night hyde!
	10:47pm geezerette: doc jazz, Happy Birthday to you!
	10:49pm geezerette: SBP, perfect!
	♥ 10:49pm Doug Schulkind: HBD, doc!
	♥ 10:49pm Dog-Day Cicada: Charles Bobbitt being represented, I wasn't counting, twice now?
	10:49pm still b/p: I hope the musicians and singers had fun cutting this stuff, even if the boss was murder.
	♥ 10:51pm coelacanth∅: ngh i only listen to that track about 5X/year, not the whole album.... but i do listen to new finds many X over, frequently. (& i may listen to almost the entire "blues" compilation [Jimi] more than 5X/yr)
	🥁 ♥ 10:51pm Uncle Michael: Bootsy found a better gig.
	10:52pm geezerette: JB makes me feel I can dance but it ain't me, it's the music.
	🥁 ♥ 11:01pm doctorjazz: Deep groove, this La La La La La.
	🥁 ♥ 11:02pm Funky16Corners: Originally a Stevie Wonder song
	11:02pm geezerette: Low Rider Jazz :D
	♥ 11:03pm Dog-Day Cicada: The West Coast East Side Sound
	🥁 ♥ 11:03pm doctorjazz: All analog...I approve!
	🥁 ♥ 11:04pm Funky16Corners: All from OG vinyl.
	🥁 ♥ 11:07pm doctorjazz: OK, gotta spend some time at the local record store (not a bad one in Summit NJ, Scotti's, close to my house).
	🥁 ♥ 11:07pm Funky16Corners: Always a good way to spend some time (and money)
	♥ 11:09pm Kris Holmes: what's the other title of The Panther? The Cat Walk?
	11:10pm still b/p: Walk On The Riled Side.
	🥁 ♥ 11:12pm Funky16Corners: Kris - I Can't remember but I know what you're talking about
	🥁 ♥ 11:13pm Cubs Win: Oh, hey.
	♥ 11:14pm Dog-Day Cicada: Hi, Larry and Kris, yeah, Panther is AKA The Cat Walk
	♥ 11:16pm Kris Holmes: i have them both, they are both The East Bay Brass, they just retitled the track
	♥ 11:17pm Kris Holmes: i bought one & was "this is great", a while later "oh another one by them, it's also great" & then i compared them & was "oh" ha
	🥁 ♥ 11:19pm Funky16Corners: Cool
	♥ 11:20pm Dog-Day Cicada: Yesterday would have been Woody's b-day
	🥁 ♥ 11:20pm Funky16Corners: No kidding?
	🥁 ♥ 11:21pm Funky16Corners: What a coinkydink
	11:23pm fleep: Wow.
	🥁 ♥ 11:24pm Funky16Corners: Right?
	🥁 ♥ 11:24pm Uncle Michael: Larry, you're the second person to play this Doc track in the history of archived-FMU.
	🥁 ♥ 11:25pm Funky16Corners: Very cool! (I Hope)
	🥁 ♥ 11:26pm Uncle Michael: Oh, come on...you know who was first.
	🥁 ♥ 11:26pm Funky16Corners: You?
	🥁 ♥ 11:26pm doctorjazz: What a bizarre cover (the King Crimson), and very cool!
	🥁 ♥ 11:27pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, I remember when I found this, and I was like "Well, I HAVE to buy this one."
	♥ 11:27pm Dog-Day Cicada: Dave the Spazz?
	♥ 11:27pm Kris Holmes: such a weird cover choice
	🥁 ♥ 11:27pm doctorjazz: I would have absolutely despised it 30 years ago...
	🥁 ♥ 11:28pm Uncle Michael: Yes, me.
	🥁 ♥ 11:28pm Funky16Corners: Right after the original, too
	🥁 ♥ 11:29pm Funky16Corners: Great minds and all that...
	🥁 ♥ 11:29pm doctorjazz: OK, back to reading about the latest Trump madness while I listen.
	11:29pm still b/p: Actual LP name: "Doc Severinsen's Closet"
	11:30pm geezerette: in the coat of the crimson cloth
	♥ 11:30pm Dog-Day Cicada: Uncle Michael, I just checked the net and also see Dave the Spazz playing it January 30, 2014, and Bill Mac playing it September 23, 2007
	♥ 11:31pm Parq: These guys -- Doc, Woody, and Im'a take a wild guess that Maynard and Stan are in the queue -- were the gods of the stage-band nerds of the mid-70s.
	♥ 11:31pm coelacanth∅: can't say i love it! but still i'd listen to it again! (maybe i'll check out that hinkydinky time archive for my second helping)
	🥁 ♥ 11:32pm Funky16Corners: Every high school trumpet player I knew was in love with the high note artists like Doc and Maynard
	11:32pm geezerette: this is funny! smoothe edged soul.
	🥁 ♥ 11:33pm Uncle Michael: I just did a search for Soc Severinson and only came up with the two. mayne Dave and Bill mispelled his name!
	🥁 ♥ 11:33pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, weird track from an easy listening outfit
	♥ 11:33pm Dog-Day Cicada: You played it Jan 10, 2014
	11:33pm geezerette: soft sole
	♥ 11:34pm Doug Schulkind: This is shocking me with it's top-rank grooviness. I will never mock 101 Strings again.
	11:34pm still b/p: Maynard came to my small college, and yes, bandfolk were delighted. geezerette, @11:30 thatsa funny.
	♥ 11:34pm northguineahills: For some reason, I have a bunch of these 101 Strings albums, no reason....
	🥁 ♥ 11:35pm Uncle Michael: sure enough, Dave misspelled Doc's name!
	🥁 ♥ 11:36pm Funky16Corners: Doug, there are a couple of cool tracks on their albums, but that's the only original I'm aware of
	♥ 11:37pm northguineahills: Must.... try.... not.... to... clicky-star... Free Design....!. (unsuccessful, nearly automatic everytime!)
	♥ 11:37pm Dog-Day Cicada: Bill Mac spelled it the same as Dave
	11:37pm still b/p: There's a golden trivia bit somehow in all this: Did Tommy Newsom ever play on a King Crimson cover? Yes!
	11:38pm geezerette: :) thnx SBP.
	♥ 11:38pm northguineahills: Ok, this is probably my favorite Free Design track!
	🥁 ♥ 11:39pm Funky16Corners: Great drums
	🥁 ♥ 11:39pm Uncle Michael: Bill also truncated the beginning of the title, eluding my search.
	11:39pm geezerette: ngh, funny lyrics!
	🥁 ♥ 11:40pm Uncle Michael: I had so much fun in March with Bill as my marathon MC. I woud like to have him do it again.
	♥ 11:40pm Dog-Day Cicada: I searched simply 'Doc Crimson WFMU'
	🥁 ♥ 11:41pm Uncle Michael: I use the WFMU advanced playlist search...google would have worked better
	🥁 ♥ 11:43pm Funky16Corners: Wait for the drums....
	♥ 11:44pm Dog-Day Cicada: This rocks!
	11:45pm fleep: Starred it.
	11:45pm still b/p: I would listen to Rumplestiltskin while open-roading in a muscle car.
	🥁 ♥ 11:46pm Funky16Corners: It has that vibe
	11:50pm still b/p: One more Doc note: "In 2014, Doc Severinsen was inducted into the Scandinavian-American Hall of Fame along with Discovery Channel's Deadliest Catch's Sig Hansen and famed singer, Bobby Vee."
	🥁 ♥ 11:50pm doctorjazz: OMG!
	🥁 ♥ 11:51pm doctorjazz: (Shank actually sounds pretty cool...). I'm getting old...
	♥ 11:52pm Dog-Day Cicada: Sound of Silence is the flip, isn't it?
	🥁 ♥ 11:53pm Funky16Corners: Not sure, played the LP
	♥ 11:55pm Dog-Day Cicada: That was a quick 2 hours
	11:55pm geezerette: GREAT show Larry !!! Glad you landed here on GTD.!!! Good night,all.
	🥁 ♥ 11:56pm doctorjazz: Fun show, reality enjoyed, thanks Larry!

	11:59pm still b/p: Is uppenthumber, this show. Danke.
	♥ 11:59pm Dog-Day Cicada: A great meld of Iron Leg and F16. Entirely enjoyable.
	🥁 ♥ 12:00am Uncle Michael: Clem might have been in Led Zeppelin if the breeze had blown a little differently.
	♥ 12:02am coelacanth∅: Strong start Larry! ...Thanks! 'nightall

	10:08pm geezerette: :D !!!

	🥁 ♥ 10:19pm Funky16Corners: BTW KALIMBA!!!
	🥁 ♥ 10:20pm Uncle Michael: This isn't that bad.
	10:21pm still b/p: Wanted to say hurray for it, but I was apprehensive about whether it was kalimba or mbira...and froze, couldn't choose one term or the other.
	♥ 10:21pm JtotheK: hi F16C, hi everyone! i only have the earnest jackson funky black man 45, still want to find the Fried Chicken Funky DJ 45. both great!
	10:22pm geezerette: There is still a pizza joint in Santa Monica called Earth Wind & Flour.

	♥ 10:23pm Kris Holmes: Earth Wind & Flour is an amazing name
	🥁 ♥ 10:23pm Funky16Corners: I would eat there.
	🥁 ♥ 10:23pm Uncle Michael: Right next door to Blood, Sweat & Beers.
	10:24pm geezerette: The crust is whole wheat.
	10:24pm still b/p: Want the staff to be in the band's wardrobe, with big pizza aprons.
	10:24pm geezerette: haha, I'd drink there.
	♥ 10:26pm Dog-Day Cicada: Kalimba, Vibraphone, and now, Harp. Sneaking in the weird instruments, eh, Larry?

	🥁 ♥ 10:28pm Funky16Corners: Now onto the Varitone saxophone...
	10:32pm geezerette: this is gorgeous.
	🥁 ♥ 10:33pm Funky16Corners: Isn't it? What do you think the suits at Atlantic thought when Eddie Harris handed in this album? Was it "The kids will dig it?' or more like 'Huh?'
	10:33pm geezerette: ...& funky!
	10:34pm geezerette: a definite, "?".
	🥁 ♥ 10:34pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, very far out and unlike his previous stuff
	♥ 10:35pm coelacanth∅: greetings Larry and others - & Welcome on!
	🥁 ♥ 10:35pm Funky16Corners: Greetings!
	10:35pm still b/p: Village People sure as hell should have had! ...a guy looking like one of those chef-roglyphics on the pizza box...big chef hat, neckerchief and apron, always making the OK/delicious gesture with hand and fingers when onstage! Y - M - C -A...aaand gesture!
	♥ 10:36pm hyde: OH i should have gone to bed 15 minutes ago but i left this on and damn i haven;t heard this Hendrix tune in maybe 35 years. thanks! glad i left it on.
	🥁 ♥ 10:36pm Funky16Corners: And they'd all be named RAY
	🥁 ♥ 10:36pm doctorjazz: Cool Hendrix, not the track generally pulled out...
	♥ 10:36pm Matt F: Turned it on right exactly as "1983" was starting. An auspicious start. Welcome aboard Larry.
	🥁 ♥ 10:36pm Funky16Corners: Stay up! It'll get even better!
	🥁 ♥ 10:37pm Funky16Corners: Hey Matt!
	♥ 10:38pm coelacanth∅: i listen to this Hendrix tune at least 5 X/year since the 1980s (when i stopped listening to that album about 50X/year)
	♥ 10:39pm hyde: @coelacanth showoff :)
	🥁 ♥ 10:40pm Funky16Corners: This is what James Brown sounds like in space
	♥ 10:41pm coelacanth∅: sorry hyde! but Jimi's my main!
	🥁 ♥ 10:41pm Uncle Michael: can people hear him scream?
	♥ 10:41pm Doug Schulkind: In space, no one can hear you grunt.
	🥁 ♥ 10:42pm Funky16Corners: And this is what he sounds like in a swinging bachelor pad
	10:43pm geezerette: This show is like spinning in Disneyland Teacups under Blacklight.
	♥ 10:43pm Doug Schulkind: You know, Larry. No one else is coming live on the stream until 9am. I'm just sayin'.
	🥁 ♥ 10:43pm Funky16Corners: I'll buy that
	♥ 10:44pm northguineahills: I can't remember the last time I listened to an album twice in one year... It takes me so long to go through my music... maybe something indie poppy like stereolab or blonde redhead in the early noughts...
	♥ 10:44pm coelacanth∅: Enoch Light?!? i didn't know he had it in 'im! and that Eddie Harris was excellent. i gotta get on that.
	♥ 10:44pm hyde: @coel fair! anyway folks, if wfmu had deep pockets i might sue for all the lost sleep i may be getting past 10 pm on wed and thurs nights. but you can't get blood from a rock. and so, thanks! good night to all my pals.
	🥁 ♥ 10:44pm Uncle Michael: By the way, Doug. September 1...I'm running a little long.
	10:45pm still b/p: Looking for something quite unrelated, I came upon a poster image a few moments ago for a movie about the two dudes who produced and preached orange sunshine, and in the paper just this morning was the obituary for one of them. Freaky. I think I did orange sunshine for an amusement park day when I was 16. But it was pretty mild. My screen name gets abbreviated as SBP by people here sometimes...and now I'll be thinking "Swinging Bachelor Pad" every time.
	🥁 ♥ 10:45pm doctorjazz: Like this Hot Pants, fun! Hey, my birthday is in an hour and a quarter, Happy Birthday to me!
	♥ 10:45pm Doug Schulkind: My brother, you can run as long as you like. I owe you.
	10:45pm geezerette: Coel, yes indeed.
	🥁 ♥ 10:46pm Funky16Corners: Happy Birthday Doctor!
	♥ 10:46pm coelacanth∅: g'night hyde!
	10:47pm geezerette: doc jazz, Happy Birthday to you!
	10:49pm geezerette: SBP, perfect!
	♥ 10:49pm Doug Schulkind: HBD, doc!
	♥ 10:49pm Dog-Day Cicada: Charles Bobbitt being represented, I wasn't counting, twice now?
	10:49pm still b/p: I hope the musicians and singers had fun cutting this stuff, even if the boss was murder.
	♥ 10:51pm coelacanth∅: ngh i only listen to that track about 5X/year, not the whole album.... but i do listen to new finds many X over, frequently. (& i may listen to almost the entire "blues" compilation [Jimi] more than 5X/yr)
	🥁 ♥ 10:51pm Uncle Michael: Bootsy found a better gig.
	10:52pm geezerette: JB makes me feel I can dance but it ain't me, it's the music.
	🥁 ♥ 11:01pm doctorjazz: Deep groove, this La La La La La.
	🥁 ♥ 11:02pm Funky16Corners: Originally a Stevie Wonder song
	11:02pm geezerette: Low Rider Jazz :D
	♥ 11:03pm Dog-Day Cicada: The West Coast East Side Sound
	🥁 ♥ 11:03pm doctorjazz: All analog...I approve!
	🥁 ♥ 11:04pm Funky16Corners: All from OG vinyl.
	🥁 ♥ 11:07pm doctorjazz: OK, gotta spend some time at the local record store (not a bad one in Summit NJ, Scotti's, close to my house).
	🥁 ♥ 11:07pm Funky16Corners: Always a good way to spend some time (and money)
	♥ 11:09pm Kris Holmes: what's the other title of The Panther? The Cat Walk?
	11:10pm still b/p: Walk On The Riled Side.
	🥁 ♥ 11:12pm Funky16Corners: Kris - I Can't remember but I know what you're talking about
	🥁 ♥ 11:13pm Cubs Win: Oh, hey.
	♥ 11:14pm Dog-Day Cicada: Hi, Larry and Kris, yeah, Panther is AKA The Cat Walk
	♥ 11:16pm Kris Holmes: i have them both, they are both The East Bay Brass, they just retitled the track
	♥ 11:17pm Kris Holmes: i bought one & was "this is great", a while later "oh another one by them, it's also great" & then i compared them & was "oh" ha
	🥁 ♥ 11:19pm Funky16Corners: Cool
	♥ 11:20pm Dog-Day Cicada: Yesterday would have been Woody's b-day
	🥁 ♥ 11:20pm Funky16Corners: No kidding?
	🥁 ♥ 11:21pm Funky16Corners: What a coinkydink
	11:23pm fleep: Wow.
	🥁 ♥ 11:24pm Funky16Corners: Right?
	🥁 ♥ 11:24pm Uncle Michael: Larry, you're the second person to play this Doc track in the history of archived-FMU.
	🥁 ♥ 11:25pm Funky16Corners: Very cool! (I Hope)
	🥁 ♥ 11:26pm Uncle Michael: Oh, come on...you know who was first.
	🥁 ♥ 11:26pm Funky16Corners: You?
	🥁 ♥ 11:26pm doctorjazz: What a bizarre cover (the King Crimson), and very cool!
	🥁 ♥ 11:27pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, I remember when I found this, and I was like "Well, I HAVE to buy this one."
	♥ 11:27pm Dog-Day Cicada: Dave the Spazz?
	♥ 11:27pm Kris Holmes: such a weird cover choice
	🥁 ♥ 11:27pm doctorjazz: I would have absolutely despised it 30 years ago...
	🥁 ♥ 11:28pm Uncle Michael: Yes, me.
	🥁 ♥ 11:28pm Funky16Corners: Right after the original, too
	🥁 ♥ 11:29pm Funky16Corners: Great minds and all that...
	🥁 ♥ 11:29pm doctorjazz: OK, back to reading about the latest Trump madness while I listen.
	11:29pm still b/p: Actual LP name: "Doc Severinsen's Closet"
	11:30pm geezerette: in the coat of the crimson cloth
	♥ 11:30pm Dog-Day Cicada: Uncle Michael, I just checked the net and also see Dave the Spazz playing it January 30, 2014, and Bill Mac playing it September 23, 2007
	♥ 11:31pm Parq: These guys -- Doc, Woody, and Im'a take a wild guess that Maynard and Stan are in the queue -- were the gods of the stage-band nerds of the mid-70s.
	♥ 11:31pm coelacanth∅: can't say i love it! but still i'd listen to it again! (maybe i'll check out that hinkydinky time archive for my second helping)
	🥁 ♥ 11:32pm Funky16Corners: Every high school trumpet player I knew was in love with the high note artists like Doc and Maynard
	11:32pm geezerette: this is funny! smoothe edged soul.
	🥁 ♥ 11:33pm Uncle Michael: I just did a search for Soc Severinson and only came up with the two. mayne Dave and Bill mispelled his name!
	🥁 ♥ 11:33pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, weird track from an easy listening outfit
	♥ 11:33pm Dog-Day Cicada: You played it Jan 10, 2014
	11:33pm geezerette: soft sole
	♥ 11:34pm Doug Schulkind: This is shocking me with it's top-rank grooviness. I will never mock 101 Strings again.
	11:34pm still b/p: Maynard came to my small college, and yes, bandfolk were delighted. geezerette, @11:30 thatsa funny.
	♥ 11:34pm northguineahills: For some reason, I have a bunch of these 101 Strings albums, no reason....
	🥁 ♥ 11:35pm Uncle Michael: sure enough, Dave misspelled Doc's name!
	🥁 ♥ 11:36pm Funky16Corners: Doug, there are a couple of cool tracks on their albums, but that's the only original I'm aware of
	♥ 11:37pm northguineahills: Must.... try.... not.... to... clicky-star... Free Design....!. (unsuccessful, nearly automatic everytime!)
	♥ 11:37pm Dog-Day Cicada: Bill Mac spelled it the same as Dave
	11:37pm still b/p: There's a golden trivia bit somehow in all this: Did Tommy Newsom ever play on a King Crimson cover? Yes!
	11:38pm geezerette: :) thnx SBP.
	♥ 11:38pm northguineahills: Ok, this is probably my favorite Free Design track!
	🥁 ♥ 11:39pm Funky16Corners: Great drums
	🥁 ♥ 11:39pm Uncle Michael: Bill also truncated the beginning of the title, eluding my search.
	11:39pm geezerette: ngh, funny lyrics!
	🥁 ♥ 11:40pm Uncle Michael: I had so much fun in March with Bill as my marathon MC. I woud like to have him do it again.
	♥ 11:40pm Dog-Day Cicada: I searched simply 'Doc Crimson WFMU'
	🥁 ♥ 11:41pm Uncle Michael: I use the WFMU advanced playlist search...google would have worked better
	🥁 ♥ 11:43pm Funky16Corners: Wait for the drums....
	♥ 11:44pm Dog-Day Cicada: This rocks!
	11:45pm fleep: Starred it.
	11:45pm still b/p: I would listen to Rumplestiltskin while open-roading in a muscle car.
	🥁 ♥ 11:46pm Funky16Corners: It has that vibe
	11:50pm still b/p: One more Doc note: "In 2014, Doc Severinsen was inducted into the Scandinavian-American Hall of Fame along with Discovery Channel's Deadliest Catch's Sig Hansen and famed singer, Bobby Vee."
	🥁 ♥ 11:50pm doctorjazz: OMG!
	🥁 ♥ 11:51pm doctorjazz: (Shank actually sounds pretty cool...). I'm getting old...
	♥ 11:52pm Dog-Day Cicada: Sound of Silence is the flip, isn't it?
	🥁 ♥ 11:53pm Funky16Corners: Not sure, played the LP
