	12:16pm Ursula1000: Hiya Otis! We went thru a binge about 4 years ago and watched it from start to finish...REALLY holds up! Super dark. And Sonny Crockett is a super intricate character.
	12:18pm Otis Fodder: I would love to do that too. We would dig it. I loved the show and you are so correct, music supervision was so spot on, forward-thinking for the time. I have memories of how popular the music was as an integral part of the show. Cool theme idea today!!
	♥ 12:18pm Feldpausch: I watched some of the earlier episodes and could watch the wheel-shots of that Ferrari Spyder driving to music all day long
	12:19pm Ursula1000: thanks Otis--knew I was gonna be in Miami so I thought why not! ;)
	♥ 12:19pm Feldpausch: Also Bruce Willis played an arms dealer
	12:19pm Otis Fodder: I assume you are wearing the attire as well? Whole family I hope is dressed to the tubbs or the crockett.
	12:20pm Ursula1000: The cameos in it were crazy Feld! Early Julia Roberts, tons...
	12:20pm Ursula1000: haha Otis, no, just in my usual Ursula garb BUT...am drinking a cuban coffe and eating a guava pastry
	12:20pm Otis Fodder: That's what 'dressed to the t' really means. Dressed to the Tubbs.
	12:21pm Otis Fodder: Mmmmmm, mid-day cafe and pastry. My speed.
	♥ 12:21pm Feldpausch: OH yeah... Eminence Front
	♥ 12:22pm D Rok: Ursula! My new favorite place to be on Thursday afternoons. Sounding great as usual!
	12:23pm Ursula1000: hey D Rok! Thanks so much---and welcome!
	12:23pm Otis Fodder: Eminence Front sampled on 3rd Bass' Pop Goes the Vanilla Ice... I mean, Weasel.
	12:24pm Ursula1000: oh really? need to relisten---never caught it
	♥ 12:24pm solo mon: U1K : It’s pronounced VER SAYSE
	♥ 12:24pm Feldpausch: HA! LOL @Otis "Dressed to the Tubbs"
	12:25pm Ursula1000: ver sayse vs ver sa chee
	12:25pm Otis Fodder: Love this Who album and Face Dances for my 80s Who. Athena on here is just classic as well... but this groove, heavy.
	12:26pm Ursula1000: couldn't imagine Keith Moon playing on this---! couldn't be restrained!
	♥ 12:26pm Feldpausch: Solo it's not Veer-sashay (RuPaul style)
	12:26pm Otis Fodder: ha, yea
	12:27pm Otis Fodder: Nona, another blast from the past.
	12:27pm Ursula1000: this Nona album is so killer
	12:30pm Kat in Chicago: “Transformation” was one of my favorite 80s tracks, but I don’t really hear it much now.
	12:30pm Ursula1000: Love the Grace Jones-ness of it Kat!
	♥ 12:31pm Feldpausch: That first Pretenders album is so good... Tattooed Love Boys
	12:31pm Ursula1000: such a jam Feld!
	♥ 12:32pm ARB: Hello dears!
	12:32pm Ursula1000: hi ARB!
	♥ 12:34pm Rich in a Pastel Sport Coat w/sleeves hiked up: OH YEAH
	♥ 12:35pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: One of my first ever concerts was Devo during this tour.
	12:36pm Ursula1000: haha this WAS my first concert! for this album's tour here in Miami!
	12:36pm Ursula1000: my big sis took me and my friends
	♥ 12:38pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: my older brother drove me to the Paramount in downtown Portland but had to listen to him editorialize about how 'weird' and 'fruity' he thought all the other attendees in the queue looked.
	12:40pm Ursula1000: haha I wonder my sister thought! she was pretty open minded though. But still....DEVO! Nothing ordinary about that!
	12:41pm Ursula1000: the feel of this song really encapsulates a lot of the episodes endings---very moody!
	♥ 12:41pm solo mon: Cry what a cool song.
	12:42pm Ursula1000: totally Solo---such a mood
	♥ 12:42pm solo mon: I was sent to the principals office in 6th grade for “liking Devo too much.”
	12:43pm Ursula1000: that has to be the best thing I've heard in like forever Solo! haha What????????
	♥ 12:44pm Feldpausch: Solo schools are totally against those Uncontrollable Urges
	12:44pm Ursula1000: ^zing!
	♥ 12:45pm Feldpausch: I have a Gut Feeling that principal was a hoser
	♥ 12:46pm solo mon: I was obsessed w Devo and would write their slogans on my clothes, trapper keeper etc, I would also tell the other kids on recess about Devo the final straw was me teaching other kids the the Barbie doll part of speed racer at recess.
	♥ 12:46pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: I got into a school yard fistfight with an old friend for me liking that 'queer band' Devo.
	♥ 12:47pm D Rok: trapper keeper... Man those are two words that instantly evoke very specific memories.
	♥ 12:47pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: I also remember in Jr. high, if you didn't have a big feathered hair helmet and stupid looking designer jeans, etc, people would yell DEVO at you from moving cars.
	♥ 12:47pm solo mon: It was a huge scandal that all the kids we’re jump roping in the school yard and chanting “Im a Barbie doll and I like sex!”
	♥ 12:48pm RevWaldo: The girl yelling? Also Don Johnson. True story.
	12:48pm Ursula1000: they sold these sleeveless TURTLENECK tees at that New Traditionalists concert---I got one and that shirt was SO weird it was beyond bullying material---too mind blowing! haha
	♥ 12:48pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: I remember Devo becoming shorthand for 'New Wave' or, god forbid 'Punk' and an insult in my town.
	12:49pm Ursula1000: Solo---that scene needs to be in the next Stranger Things season
	12:49pm Ursula1000: OK now I know WFMU may have a strict no Eagles policy but...I have to play this next one
	12:50pm Kat in Chicago: Necessary exception
	12:51pm Otis Fodder: For a moment I thought this was STEAMR.
	♥ 12:51pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: Yeah. Aren't the Stranger Things kids pushing 30 now? It would be cool to see them in the middle of the weird 'Punker' violence/suburban acceptance thing. Was so weird to see these really normal looky-loo type kids showing up at hardcore shows in the mid 80s.
	♥ 12:51pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: I think it's a strike thing, Ursula. They have to catch you but I think you have three strikes.
	12:52pm Ursula1000: haha Otis!
	12:53pm Ursula1000: this was a classic episode tho
	♥ 12:53pm Feldpausch: Glenn Frey narcing on all their plans in one song
	12:54pm Kat in Chicago: Solo and Rich, I’m glad you survived your youthful Devo fandom! Haha, STEAMR
	♥ 12:54pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: oh god. this song. I've got this and a few others on the chopping block for a project. THis instantaneously transports me back to high school.
	12:55pm Ursula1000: def has that Pink Floyd vibe from that era
	12:56pm Kat in Chicago: I remember getting “B52’s” yelled at me! And “Gary Numan” when I buzzed my hair at one point (I was going for Robert Fripp actually)
	♥ 12:56pm Rich cutting all the sleeves off his Ts now: It's funny. I outgrew Devo after getting into Punk and Post Punk but when those Hardcore Devo comps came out in the late 80s it completely reignited my love for all things Devo. Plus, I feel like we're living in the world they predicted.
	12:57pm Ursula1000: DEVO were/are definitely seers
	♥ 12:57pm Rich cutting all the sleeves off his Ts now: I just pretend those later 80s and 90s albums never happened. Not canon!
	12:58pm Kat in Chicago: My roommates and I in the early 80s went through a phase where we would cut up and draw on our clothes as preparation to go out. And we changed our hair all the time. Bucket of Basic White in the bathroom
	12:59pm Ursula1000: I kinda cut it off at Oh No It's Devo
	♥ 1:00pm solo mon: Haha I was so into oh no and new traditionalists,
	♥ 1:00pm Rich raiding Army/Navy surplus store 4 clothing: Oh No sort of killed it for me too. And that tour, while fun, was just kind of dull, full of dumb jock kids.
	♥ 1:00pm Rich raiding Army/Navy surplus store 4 clothing: and then that odious Dr. Detroit single. Done.
	♥ 1:01pm Rich raiding Army/Navy surplus store 4 clothing: I think the spudboys had some serious bills to pay by that point.
	♥ 1:02pm Rich raiding Army/Navy surplus store 4 clothing: I think the first four, five Peter Gabriel LPs are just untouchable. So good.
	1:03pm Ursula1000: was just thinking the same thing---so ahead of the time
	1:03pm Kat in Chicago: Yes, Rich, army surplus stores and Amvets thrifts (which are all now Village Discount-branded and for profit afaik)
	1:05pm Kat in Chicago: I loved those Peter Gabriel albums too. Third one was hugely influential to me
	1:09pm Ursula1000: this album too........soooooo good
	1:09pm Otis Fodder: I used to play Black Celebration on 45rpm years back. A whole new record. So happy.
	1:10pm Ursula1000: the title track Otis?
	1:11pm Otis Fodder: We used to play the whole album, with roommates that way. It was a long time ago. Did that with a lot of records that were dark and super poppy singles at 33rpm. Usual bored at home stuff on a couch.
	1:12pm Ursula1000: gotta try that! Madonna's Lucky Star on 33 is pretty excellent
	1:13pm Otis Fodder: Françoise Hardy singles at 33 are an all time fav.
	1:14pm Otis Fodder: One of my fav DCD albums. Next to Spleen.
	1:14pm Ursula1000: haha it becomes yeahhhhhhh yeahhhhhhhh
	1:14pm Ursula1000: I'm seeing them for the first time in October! so excited!
	1:15pm Otis Fodder: But probably Realm of a Dying Sun is my all time fav.
	1:16pm Ursula1000: mine too Otis---how they split the sides...effing epic! Anywhere Out Of The World---holy crap---what a song
	1:17pm Otis Fodder: Only once caught DCD, a little late... on the Spirtchaser tour in Berkeley mid 90s.
	1:18pm Otis Fodder: Billy Idol is getting Sheena Play. Flan played Eyes without a Face yesterday. Now waiting for the 12" of White Wedding, the remixes were good.
	1:19pm Ursula1000: ooh nice going Flan!
	1:20pm Ursula1000: Miami Vice actually played the Below The Belt remix of this for the show but it was too long to add for this episode so I stuck w the album version--but yeah, killer remixes!
	1:24pm Sean: Ok I thought I was pretty well versed with INXS's catalog, but I don't remember this one at all.
	1:25pm Ursula1000: Sean--it's off their album The Swing---possibly my fave of theirs
	♥ 1:25pm solo mon: Aw Michael Hutchence poor guy :-(
	1:26pm Ursula1000: I was lucky to see them for that The Swing album tour---such an excellent performer
	1:28pm Ursula1000: how crazy this is David Johansen! haha He's actually in the episode singing this at a party as an unnamed singer--to go from The Dolls to this to Buster Poindexter!
	♥ 1:28pm solo mon: Re billy idol - Flesh 4 Fantasy was such a filthy song haha I dont remember thinking that, well I was like 12
	♥ 1:31pm solo mon: Anyone remember when Leonard Cohen was a guest star in Miami Vice???
	1:32pm Ursula1000: oooh that's right Solo! wasn't he playing someone French?
	♥ 1:33pm solo mon: Yeah like a European Mob boss, so funny. So random.
	♥ 1:34pm Rich Playing A Seedy European: Zappa was on Vice playing a drug kingpin. As an actor, he was one helluva composer.
	1:36pm Sean: And Ted Nugent was a psycho killer.
	♥ 1:36pm Rich Playing A Seedy European: I remember MV showrunner Michael Mann's theatrical film Manhunter coming and going and only resurfacing when related film Silence of the Lambs was a huge hit.
	1:37pm Ursula1000: The Ted Nugent one was great. Manhunter is awesome Rich! Have that on Blu Ray
	♥ 1:37pm solo mon: Colourbox ! I mean, M.A.R.R.S. :-)
	♥ 1:38pm Feldpausch: I wonder if Rakim got paid for his major contribution to this song, because it was the wild west for sampling
	1:38pm Ursula1000: cough AR Kane cough
	1:40pm Ursula1000: how crazy that this is on 4AD!
	♥ 1:41pm solo mon: Love it so much.
	♥ 1:43pm Rich Playing A Seedy European: WOw. Tackhead got played on Miami Vice?
	♥ 1:43pm solo mon: Gary Clail on u sound? Miami Vice some interesting music supervision... this is great!
	1:43pm Ursula1000: I know right? Wild
	1:44pm Sean: So ahead of its time.
	1:45pm Ursula1000: I could have played Sheena Easton but opted for Gary Clail!
	♥ 1:46pm solo mon: LOL
	1:50pm Ursula1000: I actually LOVE this Phil Collins song. The way it builds is really cool. And the chorus comes like 3/4 into the song!
	♥ 1:51pm Rich in Lavender Sansabelt Slacks: I hated some of these songs back then but now appreciate their nostalgic time travel effects.
	♥ 1:52pm RevWaldo: Loving the show.. but still waiting for "that one song that was shouldn't have been preformed 'live' on Miami Vice, but was" that I'll refrain from naming at the risk of spoiling it or jinxing things.
	♥ 1:53pm D Rok: Scorcher after scorcher. This has been a wonderful two hours.
	♥ 1:53pm Rich in Lavender Sansabelt Slacks: Even though I had an extreme knee jerk reaction to Phil Collins BITD, I can't quite grasp the hatred directed towards him now. Did they find a dungeon of chained up orphans in his basement or something?
	♥ 1:54pm Rich in Lavender Sansabelt Slacks: He played on some classic, groundbreaking albums, with Eno, Fripp, etc.
	♥ 1:55pm D Rok: Rich, I wonder if it started with South Park's treatment of him after he won the Oscar for ... was it Lion King? Others seemed to maybe pile on after that.
	1:56pm Ursula1000: Def soft spot for Phil! Thanks for hanging in with me on this trip...and now...the classic....Crockett's Theme! Perfect jam to drive in slow motion to!
	♥ 1:56pm Feldpausch: Rich, my guess is overexposure. He was everywhere for a while
	1:57pm Sean: LOVE this one
	1:57pm Ursula1000: haha knew you'd love this!
	1:57pm Otis Fodder: Thanks Ursula for the flashbacks today.
	1:58pm Eric Kilkenny: Hola U1k! I'm better late than never, right! That's what archives are for
	1:58pm Sean: I've listened to every remix and live performance of this I could find on Youtube
	♥ 1:58pm ARB: No Jacket Required is my all time favorite album cover
	♥ 1:58pm Feldpausch: Great show, Ursula1K! Have fun in Miami and watch out for all the cocaine dealers in sleeveless, breathable netted shirts
	1:58pm Ursula1000: You got it! Now, I gotta go do a drug bust in Little Havana...thanks again for tuning in. Solo Mon next with Primal Ice Cream!
	1:59pm Sean: @feldpausch perhaps they need to watch out for him :)
	1:59pm Ursula1000: And by drug bust I mean....more Cuban Coffee and pastries!
	1:59pm Sean: Thanks Ursula!
	1:59pm Domenic: this has been interesting. Thank you for the diversity
	1:59pm Ursula1000: ;)
	♥ 2:01pm ARB: Thanks Ursula1000!
	♥ 2:01pm RevWaldo: Great show. Cheers.
	2:01pm Ursula1000: xoxo

	12:41pm Ursula1000: the feel of this song really encapsulates a lot of the episodes endings---very moody!
	♥ 12:41pm solo mon: Cry what a cool song.
	12:42pm Ursula1000: totally Solo---such a mood
	♥ 12:42pm solo mon: I was sent to the principals office in 6th grade for “liking Devo too much.”
	12:43pm Ursula1000: that has to be the best thing I've heard in like forever Solo! haha What????????
	♥ 12:44pm Feldpausch: Solo schools are totally against those Uncontrollable Urges
	12:44pm Ursula1000: ^zing!
	♥ 12:45pm Feldpausch: I have a Gut Feeling that principal was a hoser
	♥ 12:46pm solo mon: I was obsessed w Devo and would write their slogans on my clothes, trapper keeper etc, I would also tell the other kids on recess about Devo the final straw was me teaching other kids the the Barbie doll part of speed racer at recess.
	♥ 12:46pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: I got into a school yard fistfight with an old friend for me liking that 'queer band' Devo.
	♥ 12:47pm D Rok: trapper keeper... Man those are two words that instantly evoke very specific memories.
	♥ 12:47pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: I also remember in Jr. high, if you didn't have a big feathered hair helmet and stupid looking designer jeans, etc, people would yell DEVO at you from moving cars.
	♥ 12:47pm solo mon: It was a huge scandal that all the kids we’re jump roping in the school yard and chanting “Im a Barbie doll and I like sex!”
	♥ 12:48pm RevWaldo: The girl yelling? Also Don Johnson. True story.
	12:48pm Ursula1000: they sold these sleeveless TURTLENECK tees at that New Traditionalists concert---I got one and that shirt was SO weird it was beyond bullying material---too mind blowing! haha
	♥ 12:48pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: I remember Devo becoming shorthand for 'New Wave' or, god forbid 'Punk' and an insult in my town.
	12:49pm Ursula1000: Solo---that scene needs to be in the next Stranger Things season
	12:49pm Ursula1000: OK now I know WFMU may have a strict no Eagles policy but...I have to play this next one
	12:50pm Kat in Chicago: Necessary exception
	12:51pm Otis Fodder: For a moment I thought this was STEAMR.
	♥ 12:51pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: Yeah. Aren't the Stranger Things kids pushing 30 now? It would be cool to see them in the middle of the weird 'Punker' violence/suburban acceptance thing. Was so weird to see these really normal looky-loo type kids showing up at hardcore shows in the mid 80s.
	♥ 12:51pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: I think it's a strike thing, Ursula. They have to catch you but I think you have three strikes.
	12:52pm Ursula1000: haha Otis!
	12:53pm Ursula1000: this was a classic episode tho
	♥ 12:53pm Feldpausch: Glenn Frey narcing on all their plans in one song
	12:54pm Kat in Chicago: Solo and Rich, I’m glad you survived your youthful Devo fandom! Haha, STEAMR
	♥ 12:54pm Rich in a Plastic Pompadour: oh god. this song. I've got this and a few others on the chopping block for a project. THis instantaneously transports me back to high school.
	12:55pm Ursula1000: def has that Pink Floyd vibe from that era
	12:56pm Kat in Chicago: I remember getting “B52’s” yelled at me! And “Gary Numan” when I buzzed my hair at one point (I was going for Robert Fripp actually)
	♥ 12:56pm Rich cutting all the sleeves off his Ts now: It's funny. I outgrew Devo after getting into Punk and Post Punk but when those Hardcore Devo comps came out in the late 80s it completely reignited my love for all things Devo. Plus, I feel like we're living in the world they predicted.
	12:57pm Ursula1000: DEVO were/are definitely seers
	♥ 12:57pm Rich cutting all the sleeves off his Ts now: I just pretend those later 80s and 90s albums never happened. Not canon!
	12:58pm Kat in Chicago: My roommates and I in the early 80s went through a phase where we would cut up and draw on our clothes as preparation to go out. And we changed our hair all the time. Bucket of Basic White in the bathroom
	12:59pm Ursula1000: I kinda cut it off at Oh No It's Devo
	♥ 1:00pm solo mon: Haha I was so into oh no and new traditionalists,
	♥ 1:00pm Rich raiding Army/Navy surplus store 4 clothing: Oh No sort of killed it for me too. And that tour, while fun, was just kind of dull, full of dumb jock kids.
	♥ 1:00pm Rich raiding Army/Navy surplus store 4 clothing: and then that odious Dr. Detroit single. Done.
	♥ 1:01pm Rich raiding Army/Navy surplus store 4 clothing: I think the spudboys had some serious bills to pay by that point.
	♥ 1:02pm Rich raiding Army/Navy surplus store 4 clothing: I think the first four, five Peter Gabriel LPs are just untouchable. So good.
	1:03pm Ursula1000: was just thinking the same thing---so ahead of the time
	1:03pm Kat in Chicago: Yes, Rich, army surplus stores and Amvets thrifts (which are all now Village Discount-branded and for profit afaik)
	1:05pm Kat in Chicago: I loved those Peter Gabriel albums too. Third one was hugely influential to me
	1:09pm Ursula1000: this album too........soooooo good
	1:09pm Otis Fodder: I used to play Black Celebration on 45rpm years back. A whole new record. So happy.
	1:10pm Ursula1000: the title track Otis?
	1:11pm Otis Fodder: We used to play the whole album, with roommates that way. It was a long time ago. Did that with a lot of records that were dark and super poppy singles at 33rpm. Usual bored at home stuff on a couch.
	1:12pm Ursula1000: gotta try that! Madonna's Lucky Star on 33 is pretty excellent
	1:13pm Otis Fodder: Françoise Hardy singles at 33 are an all time fav.
	1:14pm Otis Fodder: One of my fav DCD albums. Next to Spleen.
	1:14pm Ursula1000: haha it becomes yeahhhhhhh yeahhhhhhhh
	1:14pm Ursula1000: I'm seeing them for the first time in October! so excited!
	1:15pm Otis Fodder: But probably Realm of a Dying Sun is my all time fav.
	1:16pm Ursula1000: mine too Otis---how they split the sides...effing epic! Anywhere Out Of The World---holy crap---what a song
	1:17pm Otis Fodder: Only once caught DCD, a little late... on the Spirtchaser tour in Berkeley mid 90s.
	1:18pm Otis Fodder: Billy Idol is getting Sheena Play. Flan played Eyes without a Face yesterday. Now waiting for the 12" of White Wedding, the remixes were good.
	1:19pm Ursula1000: ooh nice going Flan!
	1:20pm Ursula1000: Miami Vice actually played the Below The Belt remix of this for the show but it was too long to add for this episode so I stuck w the album version--but yeah, killer remixes!
	1:24pm Sean: Ok I thought I was pretty well versed with INXS's catalog, but I don't remember this one at all.
	1:25pm Ursula1000: Sean--it's off their album The Swing---possibly my fave of theirs
	♥ 1:25pm solo mon: Aw Michael Hutchence poor guy :-(
	1:26pm Ursula1000: I was lucky to see them for that The Swing album tour---such an excellent performer
	1:28pm Ursula1000: how crazy this is David Johansen! haha He's actually in the episode singing this at a party as an unnamed singer--to go from The Dolls to this to Buster Poindexter!
	♥ 1:28pm solo mon: Re billy idol - Flesh 4 Fantasy was such a filthy song haha I dont remember thinking that, well I was like 12
	♥ 1:31pm solo mon: Anyone remember when Leonard Cohen was a guest star in Miami Vice???
	1:32pm Ursula1000: oooh that's right Solo! wasn't he playing someone French?
	♥ 1:33pm solo mon: Yeah like a European Mob boss, so funny. So random.
	♥ 1:34pm Rich Playing A Seedy European: Zappa was on Vice playing a drug kingpin. As an actor, he was one helluva composer.
	1:36pm Sean: And Ted Nugent was a psycho killer.
	♥ 1:36pm Rich Playing A Seedy European: I remember MV showrunner Michael Mann's theatrical film Manhunter coming and going and only resurfacing when related film Silence of the Lambs was a huge hit.
	1:37pm Ursula1000: The Ted Nugent one was great. Manhunter is awesome Rich! Have that on Blu Ray
	♥ 1:37pm solo mon: Colourbox ! I mean, M.A.R.R.S. :-)
	♥ 1:38pm Feldpausch: I wonder if Rakim got paid for his major contribution to this song, because it was the wild west for sampling
	1:38pm Ursula1000: cough AR Kane cough
	1:40pm Ursula1000: how crazy that this is on 4AD!
	♥ 1:41pm solo mon: Love it so much.
	♥ 1:43pm Rich Playing A Seedy European: WOw. Tackhead got played on Miami Vice?
	♥ 1:43pm solo mon: Gary Clail on u sound? Miami Vice some interesting music supervision... this is great!
	1:43pm Ursula1000: I know right? Wild
	1:44pm Sean: So ahead of its time.
	1:45pm Ursula1000: I could have played Sheena Easton but opted for Gary Clail!
	♥ 1:46pm solo mon: LOL
	1:50pm Ursula1000: I actually LOVE this Phil Collins song. The way it builds is really cool. And the chorus comes like 3/4 into the song!
	♥ 1:51pm Rich in Lavender Sansabelt Slacks: I hated some of these songs back then but now appreciate their nostalgic time travel effects.
	♥ 1:52pm RevWaldo: Loving the show.. but still waiting for "that one song that was shouldn't have been preformed 'live' on Miami Vice, but was" that I'll refrain from naming at the risk of spoiling it or jinxing things.
	♥ 1:53pm D Rok: Scorcher after scorcher. This has been a wonderful two hours.
	♥ 1:53pm Rich in Lavender Sansabelt Slacks: Even though I had an extreme knee jerk reaction to Phil Collins BITD, I can't quite grasp the hatred directed towards him now. Did they find a dungeon of chained up orphans in his basement or something?
	♥ 1:54pm Rich in Lavender Sansabelt Slacks: He played on some classic, groundbreaking albums, with Eno, Fripp, etc.
	♥ 1:55pm D Rok: Rich, I wonder if it started with South Park's treatment of him after he won the Oscar for ... was it Lion King? Others seemed to maybe pile on after that.
	1:56pm Ursula1000: Def soft spot for Phil! Thanks for hanging in with me on this trip...and now...the classic....Crockett's Theme! Perfect jam to drive in slow motion to!
	♥ 1:56pm Feldpausch: Rich, my guess is overexposure. He was everywhere for a while
	1:57pm Sean: LOVE this one
	1:57pm Ursula1000: haha knew you'd love this!
	1:57pm Otis Fodder: Thanks Ursula for the flashbacks today.
	1:58pm Eric Kilkenny: Hola U1k! I'm better late than never, right! That's what archives are for
	1:58pm Sean: I've listened to every remix and live performance of this I could find on Youtube
	♥ 1:58pm ARB: No Jacket Required is my all time favorite album cover
	♥ 1:58pm Feldpausch: Great show, Ursula1K! Have fun in Miami and watch out for all the cocaine dealers in sleeveless, breathable netted shirts
	1:58pm Ursula1000: You got it! Now, I gotta go do a drug bust in Little Havana...thanks again for tuning in. Solo Mon next with Primal Ice Cream!
	1:59pm Sean: @feldpausch perhaps they need to watch out for him :)
	1:59pm Ursula1000: And by drug bust I mean....more Cuban Coffee and pastries!
	1:59pm Sean: Thanks Ursula!
	1:59pm Domenic: this has been interesting. Thank you for the diversity
	1:59pm Ursula1000: ;)
	♥ 2:01pm ARB: Thanks Ursula1000!
	♥ 2:01pm RevWaldo: Great show. Cheers.
	2:01pm Ursula1000: xoxo
