	🎸 ♥ 4:14pm Rich in Washington: Oh yeah!
	4:16pm Fuzzy: Clapton was unhappy with the commercial pop direction that the Yardbirds were headed in...lol

	4:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: One of my favourite of the lesser known Beatles' tracks :-)
	♥ 4:25pm Mr Fab: Wow, early Marianne Faithfull sang like 2 octaves higher than her '80s stuff!

	4:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: On of my absolute favourite Cilla songs :-) <3

	4:40pm geezerette: Allo, GG! Any Yardley ads?
	4:41pm Linda Lee: i was a 4 year old Beatlemaniac. that's my bio. :-)
	4:41pm Fuzzy: Indeed!
	4:41pm Linda Lee: isn't this NW cover nice!!
	4:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think I have a Yardley ad somewhere ... hello Linda! :-)
	4:43pm Linda Lee: cheers! how are you GG?
	4:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Fuzzy - here you go :-) www.wfmu.org...
	4:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm feeling fantastic! I get to play my fave band in the world for all of you :-)
	4:46pm Linda Lee: still bijou & bold, i see. lovely! :-)
	4:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That now has to be my drag name :-) Bijou N. Bold :-)
	4:46pm Fuzzy: Thanks GG -- my first time here and it's most excellent! Will be tuning in regularly from now on!
	4:47pm Linda Lee: brava!! :-D
	4:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Fuzzy - what a lovely compliment! Thank you! :-)
	4:47pm geezerette: They're music is so excellent that any gifted artist can interpret it and it will be as strong and beautiful as the original. Like jazz versions of American Song Book Standards do.
	4:48pm Linda Lee: Fuzzy!! you're in for amazing treats!
	4:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @gezzerette - yes!!! Absolutely!!! :-)
	4:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: gezzerette??? I can't spell apparently!
	4:49pm Linda Lee: yes!!! what happened to the Beatles in 65? the 1960s arrived!
	4:49pm geezerette: Yes, Circus was teriffic!!! @GG, my inner child is ecstatic right now.
	4:50pm Linda Lee: absolutely right.
	4:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I really do think that 65 and 66 are the watershed years for everyone in that era :-)
	4:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Tomorrow Never Knows is EVERYTHING.
	4:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I am genuinely so very, very happy that you're all digging this :-)
	4:51pm Martinibomb: Totally!
	4:52pm geezerette: littlecloudydreams.files.wordpress.com... :)
	♥ 4:52pm Mr Fab: thsi song could go into any number of Halls-of-Fame, but certainly a Greatest One-Chord Song HoF. Should one ever be founded
	4:53pm Martinibomb: Sadly the first time I heard twist n shout was via Ferris bueller's day off. I don't ever remember hearing it on the radio or anyone ever playing it. But I was totally blown away when I heard that on. Obsessed.
	4:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @geezerette - what a beautiful photo!!!! <3
	4:53pm geezerette: God,I LOVE this song so much! TNK
	4:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - you were in luck this week then! ;-)
	4:54pm Martinibomb: oh man that radio power of love thing you just played .. I'm pretty sure KISN FM used to use that one.. Is that from the stuff Rich sent?
	4:54pm Linda Lee: in terms of mass consciousness. the stage was set for it earlier ~ actually post war in the cities, yes? ~ in terms of an inclusive consciousness & a turning from the demands of conventional conservatism ~ but the wave reached out toward us all then, through the Beatles! just phenomenal.
	4:54pm geezerette: GG, isn't it?! Two happy people.
	4:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - it was from a tape I had years ago with a collection of Caroline and London jingles :-)
	4:55pm Linda Lee: two virgins.
	4:55pm geezerette: Linda, :)
	4:55pm Fuzzy: Bob Dylan introduced them to his friend Mary Jane in '65.
	4:56pm Linda Lee: & if he hadn't someone else would have :-D
	4:56pm geezerette: Fuzzy, yes! ha ha
	4:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: He certainly did - naughty Bob. ;-) I've just realised how ironic that is ... lol (In the UK the slang for weed used to be Bob, as in "Bob Hope" = dope.)
	♥ 4:58pm Mr Fab: We lost Peter Fonda recently. The guy who annoyed the Beatles by repeatedly telling them "I know what it's like to be dead" whilst trippin at a party. But hey, at least they got a song out of it.
	4:58pm Fuzzy: Bob -- ha! I didn't know that! Praise Bob, and pass the frop!
	4:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - I wanted to include She Said this week but couldn't manage to find a cover, sadly. What a blow that was about Peter Fonda :-(
	5:00pm Linda Lee: what i really do love are 'easy listening' versions of Beatles tunes. not sure why :-D
	5:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda - you're preaching to the choir ;-)
	5:01pm Linda Lee: & that's why i dig you the most, GG. :-D
	5:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: :-)
	5:02pm Martinibomb: isnt 2morrow a tibetan book of the dead trip too? or some kinda timothy leary/doors of perception thing happening?
	5:03pm geezerette: www.rockhall.com...
	5:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yep, Tibetan Book of the Dead :-)
	5:04pm Linda Lee: exaaaaactly! we asked 'what is going on?' & cared enough to find out!
	♥ 5:04pm Mr Fab: I'd say the Beatles agree with you (and me) on the awesomeness of "TNK" - they spent 4 pages in their collective autobiography "Anthology" discussing it, more pages than any other song.
	5:04pm geezerette: Ethereal.
	5:05pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @geezerette - when I visited Liverpool the year before last there was an excellent John and Yoko exhibition, and part of the displays included John's New York t-shirt, his wedding suit, and the camo outfit he wore. It was weird and poignant seeing his clothes because for the first time I could see his physicality, if that makes sense?
	5:05pm Linda Lee: isn't 'blue jay way' a nice fable about waiting for us all to follow their lead & evolve!
	♥ 5:06pm Mr Fab: anyone visiting LA, I'll be happy to take you to the actual Blue Jay Way! (There really was "a fog upon LA" today)
	♥ 5:06pm coelacanth∅: greetings GeorgyGirl and all ...i came the blue jay way
	5:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - I may have to take you up on that! :-)
	5:07pm Linda Lee: a person's personal effects always really hit us in a unique way.
	5:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi coelacantho!
	5:08pm DJ GeorgyGirl: All the photos of me from Liverpool are either just after I've stopped crying or as I'm about to start crying ;-)
	5:08pm Linda Lee: oh GG!
	5:13pm Linda Lee: that is touching.
	5:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The trip was a birthday present from my partner - trip of a lifetime! :-)
	5:14pm Martinibomb: Someone once said to me "Bristol is a nice place. The British are funny looking but we've all got good hearts. Terrible at cooking apparently, rated the lowest in the world." Dunno why it popped into my head today. There it is.
	5:14pm geezerette: DJ GG@5:05, Makes perfect sense. Extraordinary how deeply he got through to people. Your show today is bringing so much joy.
	5:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - Bristol is indeed a lovely place! :-) @geezerette - <3 <3 <3
	5:15pm Fuzzy: Speaking of personal affects, anyone in the NYC vicinity should check out this exhibit at the Met Museum: www.metmuseum.org...
	5:15pm geezerette: DJ GG, what a spectacular birthday present!
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: British cooking ... you can't beat a Sunday Roast. Or chips ;-)
	5:16pm Fuzzy: I gotta check it out before it's over!
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And now for your delectation .... how's this for a cover of I am The Walrus? ;-)
	5:17pm Linda Lee: sweet.
	5:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Fuzzy - WOW!! Please go! Tell us all about it!!! It looks fantastic :-)
	5:18pm Fuzzy: Can there be a bad cover of IATW? My favorite is the Pop-O-Pies version -- The Spazz plays it now and again.
	5:18pm Linda Lee: just saw John Waters' 'Pink Flamingos' the other day & realized: the Egg Man! of course! :-D
	5:18pm geezerette: incredible!
	5:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I do have a soft spot for Oingo Boingo's cover of IATW :-)
	5:19pm geezerette: Linda, ha! :D
	♥ 5:19pm Mr Fab: yeah I like Pop-O-Pies version: "Smoke pot, smoke pot, everybody smoke pot"
	5:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda - ah now. The origin story of IATW and the Egg man ... it';s Eric Burdon :-)
	5:19pm Fuzzy: Yes, GG -- I have to go -- have had the tab for this and the megabus to nyc open in my browser for a month or so now!
	5:19pm Linda Lee: oh yes? how come?
	5:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: dangerousminds.net...
	5:20pm Fuzzy: @Mr. Fab: da ya go!
	♥ 5:20pm coelacanth∅: my favorite i am the walrus, after the original, is the one sung by a british school choir.
	♥ 5:20pm Mr Fab: a mashup crew called The Illuminoids did in fact mix "IATW" with "Pink Flamingos" dialogue. It's in the Sheena's stream.
	🎸 ♥ 5:20pm Rich in Washington: This is incredible, GeorgyGirl!
	5:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: A British school choir?? That sounds PHENOMENAL :-)
	5:21pm Fuzzy: And the guitar on the Pies version is awesome -- captures the sprit of the original so well!
	5:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Between Spooky Tooth and Circus you can see why poor Dave isn't on the show this week ;-)
	♥ 5:22pm coelacanth∅: it is Phenomenal! and it should be in the wfmu archives but i'm not finding it
	5:22pm Linda Lee: oho. i see! :-D
	5:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: You'll never look at Eric Burdon quite the same again. Saucy Eric ;-)
	5:24pm Linda Lee: he looks more like an egg himself these days. :-D
	5:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ooo, I could go a bit of toast and marmalade right now ... I do love marmalade. And the band, obviously.
	5:32pm Linda Lee: now this one struck me as a lot of fun in grade school! i think i heard the gender switch bit very clearly. :-D
	5:33pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda - same :-)
	5:34pm geezerette: This is a rockin' version! That guitar!!! (SMS)
	5:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Good, isn't it? :-)
	♥ 5:36pm coelacanth∅: George is/was always my favorite, so i miss his voice on this
	5:36pm Fuzzy: Wow!
	5:36pm geezerette: fabulous!!! :D
	5:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: An ad for Mr Fab :-)
	5:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @coelacantho - mine too :-)
	♥ 5:36pm Mr Fab: best ad EVER!
	5:37pm Don-O: The drums in the last two tracks sounded almost the same.
	5:37pm Linda Lee: George is on the track, with Paul & Ringo ~ just not singing. he also produced.
	5:37pm Fuzzy: These ads are hilarious.
	5:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Don-O! :-)
	5:38pm geezerette: Coel, John & George my faves. All geniuses though, yes even Ringo.
	5:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ringo is one of the most underrated drummers ever.
	5:39pm geezerette: Right?
	5:39pm Linda Lee: this song reminds me: as much of a wild time young people had at the time, most of it was had by the guys.
	5:39pm geezerette: Love Cilla Black!
	5:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I loved it when Beatles Rock band came out and everyone was exhausted trying to play the drums ;-)
	♥ 5:41pm coelacanth∅: g, i agree; and yes Ringo was (maybe still is?) a superb drummer
	♥ 5:41pm coelacanth∅: George was also very funny
	5:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There's an isolated vocal of Because on YouTube and it is just beautiful.
	5:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: George and the Pythons! :-)
	5:44pm Linda Lee: funny about 'because'. my family was breaking up just as the beatles were & i realized things were really pretty shaky in general. lost the childhood then, really. 'because' reminds me of that time.
	5:45pm geezerette: "Because" is musically lovely but the lyrics make me laugh and cry with delight every time I hear it.
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ahead of the last speaking bit, I just wanted to say that Otis is on Sundays. I completely spaced out and forgot about our schedule changes :-)
	♥ 5:45pm coelacanth∅: what was George credited as for this?
	5:46pm Linda Lee: GG, don't forget to hear Fanny do 'Badge' some time. i think theirs is the best version done. really. youtu.be...
	5:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Writer :-) I think it's him on guitar as well.
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda - because of you I've been getting into fanny a lot!! Thank you for that! :-)
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That didn't come out right .. lol!! ;-)
	5:47pm Linda Lee: ahahaha!!! good for you GG! :-)
	5:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It wouldn't be the Flange without Badfinger :-)
	5:48pm geezerette: ha ha!
	♥ 5:48pm coelacanth∅: oh, i think he just wasn't credited. (on "goodbye" anyway)
	♥ 5:48pm Mr Fab: Hey-oh!
	5:49pm Linda Lee: i lurrrrrrved Badfinger!
	5:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Badfinger is the Flange house band :-)
	5:50pm Linda Lee: that's not the oo pushing coke, is it?
	5:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Fun fact: George wrote this for Shirley but she didn't get around to it until later :-)
	5:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It is indeed the 'oo :-)
	5:51pm Linda Lee: Shirley Bassey! my mother's favorite singer in the late 60s/early 70s. did he really!
	5:52pm Linda Lee: can't miss Moon. :-)
	5:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: What a bloody brilliant two hours this has been! Thank you all for being here - I do genuinely appreciate it :-) And I have a lot of fun too :-) Stay tuned for Don-O after me: www.wfmu.org...
	5:53pm Linda Lee: honestly, GG, another phenomenal show!!
	5:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Now ... I wanted to play Hey Jude. I thought a sing a long would be fun. But i didn't. So I shall do that in the near future :-)
	5:54pm geezerette: True? Interesting! I love George's version. DJ GG, A splendid time was had by all. :D
	♥ 5:55pm coelacanth∅: (i like Wilson Pickett's hey jude much better than the beatles')
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Huge hugs to everyone! :-)
	5:55pm Fuzzy: Awesome show! Thanks!
	5:56pm Linda Lee: heard a great story from Marianne Faithfulll about 'Hey Jude' just last night. she & the stones were hanging out at a pop-up nightclub called the Vesuvius club when Paul came in looking like he'd laid a brick. he handed an acetate to the dj: Hey Jude. it blew them all away.
	5:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Again, Otis is on Sunday! :-)
	5:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Great story, Linda! :-)
	♥ 5:56pm coelacanth∅: it was a big thing for me too, and i think for the whole family -when they split up
	5:57pm geezerette: LL, :) Great story!
	♥ 5:57pm coelacanth∅: Thanks GeorgyGirl! - Lovely
	5:57pm Linda Lee: Marianne will talk about the Beatles happily, but not the Stones. just refuses.
	5:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: :-)
	♥ 5:58pm Mr Fab: we convinced our Catholic school to let us sing this. The nuns were a bit dubious that it was about THE Mother Mary, but let us do it anyway, heh heh
	5:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm not surprised re marianne
	5:58pm CC: Great show GG!
	5:58pm Linda Lee: honestly, GG, your shows are the best thing happening on radio at this time. i'll be here or be square next time. have a good weekend!
	♥ 5:59pm Mr Fab: moving chronologically, Don-O will take us into the '70s now: www.wfmu.org...
	5:59pm geezerette: Everything that Linda said!
	6:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: <3

	4:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Fuzzy - sadly, no but only because I played that a couple of Flanges ago :-)
	4:38pm geezerette: Bliss ! Came in on Lennon. :D
	4:39pm Fuzzy: s'all good! :-)
	4:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello geezerette! :-)
	4:39pm geezerette: & that Cilla song is a favorite.
	4:40pm Linda Lee: the most beautiful deodorant commercial ever. cheers! fab 4 day!!
	4:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Another version of Norwegian Wood because this is MAGNIFICENT. :-)
	4:40pm geezerette: Allo, GG! Any Yardley ads?
	4:41pm Linda Lee: i was a 4 year old Beatlemaniac. that's my bio. :-)
	4:41pm Fuzzy: Indeed!
	4:41pm Linda Lee: isn't this NW cover nice!!
	4:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think I have a Yardley ad somewhere ... hello Linda! :-)
	4:43pm Linda Lee: cheers! how are you GG?
	4:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Fuzzy - here you go :-) www.wfmu.org...
	4:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm feeling fantastic! I get to play my fave band in the world for all of you :-)
	4:46pm Linda Lee: still bijou & bold, i see. lovely! :-)
	4:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That now has to be my drag name :-) Bijou N. Bold :-)
	4:46pm Fuzzy: Thanks GG -- my first time here and it's most excellent! Will be tuning in regularly from now on!
	4:47pm Linda Lee: brava!! :-D
	4:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Fuzzy - what a lovely compliment! Thank you! :-)
	4:47pm geezerette: They're music is so excellent that any gifted artist can interpret it and it will be as strong and beautiful as the original. Like jazz versions of American Song Book Standards do.
	4:48pm Linda Lee: Fuzzy!! you're in for amazing treats!
	4:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @gezzerette - yes!!! Absolutely!!! :-)
	4:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: gezzerette??? I can't spell apparently!
	4:49pm Linda Lee: yes!!! what happened to the Beatles in 65? the 1960s arrived!
	4:49pm geezerette: Yes, Circus was teriffic!!! @GG, my inner child is ecstatic right now.
	4:50pm Linda Lee: absolutely right.
	4:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I really do think that 65 and 66 are the watershed years for everyone in that era :-)
	4:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Tomorrow Never Knows is EVERYTHING.
	4:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I am genuinely so very, very happy that you're all digging this :-)
	4:51pm Martinibomb: Totally!
	4:52pm geezerette: littlecloudydreams.files.wordpress.com... :)
	♥ 4:52pm Mr Fab: thsi song could go into any number of Halls-of-Fame, but certainly a Greatest One-Chord Song HoF. Should one ever be founded
	4:53pm Martinibomb: Sadly the first time I heard twist n shout was via Ferris bueller's day off. I don't ever remember hearing it on the radio or anyone ever playing it. But I was totally blown away when I heard that on. Obsessed.
	4:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @geezerette - what a beautiful photo!!!! <3
	4:53pm geezerette: God,I LOVE this song so much! TNK
	4:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - you were in luck this week then! ;-)
	4:54pm Martinibomb: oh man that radio power of love thing you just played .. I'm pretty sure KISN FM used to use that one.. Is that from the stuff Rich sent?
	4:54pm Linda Lee: in terms of mass consciousness. the stage was set for it earlier ~ actually post war in the cities, yes? ~ in terms of an inclusive consciousness & a turning from the demands of conventional conservatism ~ but the wave reached out toward us all then, through the Beatles! just phenomenal.
	4:54pm geezerette: GG, isn't it?! Two happy people.
	4:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - it was from a tape I had years ago with a collection of Caroline and London jingles :-)
	4:55pm Linda Lee: two virgins.
	4:55pm geezerette: Linda, :)
	4:55pm Fuzzy: Bob Dylan introduced them to his friend Mary Jane in '65.
	4:56pm Linda Lee: & if he hadn't someone else would have :-D
	4:56pm geezerette: Fuzzy, yes! ha ha
	4:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: He certainly did - naughty Bob. ;-) I've just realised how ironic that is ... lol (In the UK the slang for weed used to be Bob, as in "Bob Hope" = dope.)
	♥ 4:58pm Mr Fab: We lost Peter Fonda recently. The guy who annoyed the Beatles by repeatedly telling them "I know what it's like to be dead" whilst trippin at a party. But hey, at least they got a song out of it.
	4:58pm Fuzzy: Bob -- ha! I didn't know that! Praise Bob, and pass the frop!
	4:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - I wanted to include She Said this week but couldn't manage to find a cover, sadly. What a blow that was about Peter Fonda :-(
	5:00pm Linda Lee: what i really do love are 'easy listening' versions of Beatles tunes. not sure why :-D
	5:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda - you're preaching to the choir ;-)
	5:01pm Linda Lee: & that's why i dig you the most, GG. :-D
	5:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: :-)
	5:02pm Martinibomb: isnt 2morrow a tibetan book of the dead trip too? or some kinda timothy leary/doors of perception thing happening?
	5:03pm geezerette: www.rockhall.com...
	5:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yep, Tibetan Book of the Dead :-)
	5:04pm Linda Lee: exaaaaactly! we asked 'what is going on?' & cared enough to find out!
	♥ 5:04pm Mr Fab: I'd say the Beatles agree with you (and me) on the awesomeness of "TNK" - they spent 4 pages in their collective autobiography "Anthology" discussing it, more pages than any other song.
	5:04pm geezerette: Ethereal.
	5:05pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @geezerette - when I visited Liverpool the year before last there was an excellent John and Yoko exhibition, and part of the displays included John's New York t-shirt, his wedding suit, and the camo outfit he wore. It was weird and poignant seeing his clothes because for the first time I could see his physicality, if that makes sense?
	5:05pm Linda Lee: isn't 'blue jay way' a nice fable about waiting for us all to follow their lead & evolve!
	♥ 5:06pm Mr Fab: anyone visiting LA, I'll be happy to take you to the actual Blue Jay Way! (There really was "a fog upon LA" today)
	♥ 5:06pm coelacanth∅: greetings GeorgyGirl and all ...i came the blue jay way
	5:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - I may have to take you up on that! :-)
	5:07pm Linda Lee: a person's personal effects always really hit us in a unique way.
	5:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi coelacantho!
	5:08pm DJ GeorgyGirl: All the photos of me from Liverpool are either just after I've stopped crying or as I'm about to start crying ;-)
	5:08pm Linda Lee: oh GG!
	5:13pm Linda Lee: that is touching.
	5:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: The trip was a birthday present from my partner - trip of a lifetime! :-)
	5:14pm Martinibomb: Someone once said to me "Bristol is a nice place. The British are funny looking but we've all got good hearts. Terrible at cooking apparently, rated the lowest in the world." Dunno why it popped into my head today. There it is.
	5:14pm geezerette: DJ GG@5:05, Makes perfect sense. Extraordinary how deeply he got through to people. Your show today is bringing so much joy.
	5:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - Bristol is indeed a lovely place! :-) @geezerette - <3 <3 <3
	5:15pm Fuzzy: Speaking of personal affects, anyone in the NYC vicinity should check out this exhibit at the Met Museum: www.metmuseum.org...
	5:15pm geezerette: DJ GG, what a spectacular birthday present!
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: British cooking ... you can't beat a Sunday Roast. Or chips ;-)
	5:16pm Fuzzy: I gotta check it out before it's over!
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And now for your delectation .... how's this for a cover of I am The Walrus? ;-)
	5:17pm Linda Lee: sweet.
	5:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Fuzzy - WOW!! Please go! Tell us all about it!!! It looks fantastic :-)
	5:18pm Fuzzy: Can there be a bad cover of IATW? My favorite is the Pop-O-Pies version -- The Spazz plays it now and again.
	5:18pm Linda Lee: just saw John Waters' 'Pink Flamingos' the other day & realized: the Egg Man! of course! :-D
	5:18pm geezerette: incredible!
	5:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I do have a soft spot for Oingo Boingo's cover of IATW :-)
	5:19pm geezerette: Linda, ha! :D
	♥ 5:19pm Mr Fab: yeah I like Pop-O-Pies version: "Smoke pot, smoke pot, everybody smoke pot"
	5:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda - ah now. The origin story of IATW and the Egg man ... it';s Eric Burdon :-)
	5:19pm Fuzzy: Yes, GG -- I have to go -- have had the tab for this and the megabus to nyc open in my browser for a month or so now!
	5:19pm Linda Lee: oh yes? how come?
	5:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: dangerousminds.net...
	5:20pm Fuzzy: @Mr. Fab: da ya go!
	♥ 5:20pm coelacanth∅: my favorite i am the walrus, after the original, is the one sung by a british school choir.
	♥ 5:20pm Mr Fab: a mashup crew called The Illuminoids did in fact mix "IATW" with "Pink Flamingos" dialogue. It's in the Sheena's stream.
	🎸 ♥ 5:20pm Rich in Washington: This is incredible, GeorgyGirl!
	5:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: A British school choir?? That sounds PHENOMENAL :-)
	5:21pm Fuzzy: And the guitar on the Pies version is awesome -- captures the sprit of the original so well!
	5:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Between Spooky Tooth and Circus you can see why poor Dave isn't on the show this week ;-)
	♥ 5:22pm coelacanth∅: it is Phenomenal! and it should be in the wfmu archives but i'm not finding it
	5:22pm Linda Lee: oho. i see! :-D
	5:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: You'll never look at Eric Burdon quite the same again. Saucy Eric ;-)
	5:24pm Linda Lee: he looks more like an egg himself these days. :-D
	5:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ooo, I could go a bit of toast and marmalade right now ... I do love marmalade. And the band, obviously.
	5:32pm Linda Lee: now this one struck me as a lot of fun in grade school! i think i heard the gender switch bit very clearly. :-D
	5:33pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda - same :-)
	5:34pm geezerette: This is a rockin' version! That guitar!!! (SMS)
	5:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Good, isn't it? :-)
	♥ 5:36pm coelacanth∅: George is/was always my favorite, so i miss his voice on this
	5:36pm Fuzzy: Wow!
	5:36pm geezerette: fabulous!!! :D
	5:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: An ad for Mr Fab :-)
	5:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @coelacantho - mine too :-)
	♥ 5:36pm Mr Fab: best ad EVER!
	5:37pm Don-O: The drums in the last two tracks sounded almost the same.
	5:37pm Linda Lee: George is on the track, with Paul & Ringo ~ just not singing. he also produced.
	5:37pm Fuzzy: These ads are hilarious.
	5:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Don-O! :-)
	5:38pm geezerette: Coel, John & George my faves. All geniuses though, yes even Ringo.
	5:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ringo is one of the most underrated drummers ever.
	5:39pm geezerette: Right?
	5:39pm Linda Lee: this song reminds me: as much of a wild time young people had at the time, most of it was had by the guys.
	5:39pm geezerette: Love Cilla Black!
	5:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I loved it when Beatles Rock band came out and everyone was exhausted trying to play the drums ;-)
	♥ 5:41pm coelacanth∅: g, i agree; and yes Ringo was (maybe still is?) a superb drummer
	♥ 5:41pm coelacanth∅: George was also very funny
	5:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There's an isolated vocal of Because on YouTube and it is just beautiful.
	5:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: George and the Pythons! :-)
	5:44pm Linda Lee: funny about 'because'. my family was breaking up just as the beatles were & i realized things were really pretty shaky in general. lost the childhood then, really. 'because' reminds me of that time.
	5:45pm geezerette: "Because" is musically lovely but the lyrics make me laugh and cry with delight every time I hear it.
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ahead of the last speaking bit, I just wanted to say that Otis is on Sundays. I completely spaced out and forgot about our schedule changes :-)
	♥ 5:45pm coelacanth∅: what was George credited as for this?
	5:46pm Linda Lee: GG, don't forget to hear Fanny do 'Badge' some time. i think theirs is the best version done. really. youtu.be...
	5:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Writer :-) I think it's him on guitar as well.
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Linda - because of you I've been getting into fanny a lot!! Thank you for that! :-)
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That didn't come out right .. lol!! ;-)
	5:47pm Linda Lee: ahahaha!!! good for you GG! :-)
	5:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It wouldn't be the Flange without Badfinger :-)
	5:48pm geezerette: ha ha!
	♥ 5:48pm coelacanth∅: oh, i think he just wasn't credited. (on "goodbye" anyway)
	♥ 5:48pm Mr Fab: Hey-oh!
	5:49pm Linda Lee: i lurrrrrrved Badfinger!
	5:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Badfinger is the Flange house band :-)
	5:50pm Linda Lee: that's not the oo pushing coke, is it?
	5:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Fun fact: George wrote this for Shirley but she didn't get around to it until later :-)
	5:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It is indeed the 'oo :-)
	5:51pm Linda Lee: Shirley Bassey! my mother's favorite singer in the late 60s/early 70s. did he really!
	5:52pm Linda Lee: can't miss Moon. :-)
	5:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: What a bloody brilliant two hours this has been! Thank you all for being here - I do genuinely appreciate it :-) And I have a lot of fun too :-) Stay tuned for Don-O after me: www.wfmu.org...
	5:53pm Linda Lee: honestly, GG, another phenomenal show!!
	5:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Now ... I wanted to play Hey Jude. I thought a sing a long would be fun. But i didn't. So I shall do that in the near future :-)
	5:54pm geezerette: True? Interesting! I love George's version. DJ GG, A splendid time was had by all. :D
	♥ 5:55pm coelacanth∅: (i like Wilson Pickett's hey jude much better than the beatles')
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Huge hugs to everyone! :-)
	5:55pm Fuzzy: Awesome show! Thanks!
	5:56pm Linda Lee: heard a great story from Marianne Faithfulll about 'Hey Jude' just last night. she & the stones were hanging out at a pop-up nightclub called the Vesuvius club when Paul came in looking like he'd laid a brick. he handed an acetate to the dj: Hey Jude. it blew them all away.
	5:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Again, Otis is on Sunday! :-)
	5:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Great story, Linda! :-)
	♥ 5:56pm coelacanth∅: it was a big thing for me too, and i think for the whole family -when they split up
	5:57pm geezerette: LL, :) Great story!
	♥ 5:57pm coelacanth∅: Thanks GeorgyGirl! - Lovely
	5:57pm Linda Lee: Marianne will talk about the Beatles happily, but not the Stones. just refuses.
	5:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: :-)
	♥ 5:58pm Mr Fab: we convinced our Catholic school to let us sing this. The nuns were a bit dubious that it was about THE Mother Mary, but let us do it anyway, heh heh
	5:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm not surprised re marianne
	5:58pm CC: Great show GG!
	5:58pm Linda Lee: honestly, GG, your shows are the best thing happening on radio at this time. i'll be here or be square next time. have a good weekend!
	♥ 5:59pm Mr Fab: moving chronologically, Don-O will take us into the '70s now: www.wfmu.org...
	5:59pm geezerette: Everything that Linda said!
	6:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: <3
