Mom's OK and has food in but still....this is the third Friday in a row that her aide has pulled this shit. Mom really likes her but she is getting less and less reliable, and Mom is afraid to have someone else from teh agency cover due to COVID...

	♥ 3:10pm DjLorraine: What a joy to be a part of a great and wonderful experience!
	3:10pm Listener Robert: Threemoons, is your mother far away? As far as the risk of Covid, it's now about as low as it's ever going to go. So it's a choice of isolate forever, or choose the best time to catch the current, omicron variant.
	3:10pm djsheilab: Robm—I was thinking that Trouble would love the Nyokabi record :)

	♥ 3:12pm Jason from Houston: Congratulations on a stellar marathoning, djsheilab! ♡ ♡ ♡
	3:12pm Robm: @Shelia i think she would too
	3:13pm Listener Robert: If you're vaccinated, the best time to catch it is before the immunization from the vaccine wears off, and then from the infection you'll have the best immunity available. Boosters aren't going to keep working.
	3:14pm djsheilab: Hey Gurldoggie, BH, + WoodsofNH! Thx Jason from Houston. It was stellar indeed! Credit to my fabulous co-hosts Evan "Funk" Davies + Scott Williams. I had a blast with those boyzzz!

	3:17pm djsheilab: Jason from Houston—Yes!
	3:17pm Rob Kopp: I listened to IN C (from 1968) a couple of years ago. I thought there must be something else in 40 minutes than just that C. There wasn't.

	3:43pm djsheilab: Thanks for donating, Don F.! When Scott read out your note, I knew it was you.
	♥ 3:47pm Michael 98145: Love Arooj -- sure i discovered her here ..
	♥ 3:54pm nathan: sheila presents sophisticated bang bang?
	♥ 3:54pm Handy Haversack: That Lykke Li track was going to prompt me to point out that it's just one thin week to Bandcamp Friday -- until I realized it's not going to be on Bandcamp. Nevertheless: one week. Lovely ascot, Sheila! (You never know what sentences you'll end up getting to use on WFMU!)
	♥ 3:55pm Niall: @efd, @B R M: Neat! Honestly, I just tune out for two weeks and let my S4L do the work, ha.
	3:56pm Quinn02: Alternate universe boom boom
	♥ 3:56pm JohnEBGood: Cher rocked this one!
	3:57pm djsheilab: nathan + JohnEBGood—I haven't heard a bad version of "Bang Bang." Nor "St James Infirmary." Dark, haunting, perfect.

	♥ 4:03pm Mennlinn Rebarts: I love Enka so much!
	♥ 4:03pm Buckaroo: Are those Japanese Retro Hits compilations available on any physical media? Whenever I've looked, they're only available as mp3's or streaming on Spotify.
	♥ 4:04pm Handy Haversack: K8 used to sing "St. James Infirmary" with her jazz band. Not butchering. That was always a highlight of their shows for me.
	♥ 4:05pm JohnEBGood: I love Paula!!!
	♥ 4:07pm Cassettivity: Funny you say that about talking, was just going to write how much I'm enjoying listening to it! Your commentary is crushing it!

	♥ 4:13pm tim from washington: @Gurldoggie - are you still here? I didn't see your Gang of Four question before I stepped out for lunch.
	♥ 4:13pm Handy Haversack: What the what! I'm raviloi-izing over here!
	4:14pm Joey: Sheila, watched the Cambodian music document AGAIN. Those songs from so long ago are so haunting, and disturbing at the same time!! I can't get some of them out of my mind. My daughter Jess did a paper on it for college!
	♥ 4:14pm JohnEBGood: Forever My Girl : )
	4:14pm djsheilab: Matt Warwick—Woohoo!!!!

	♥ 4:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Boyardees songs great!
	4:16pm djsheilab: She's got such a delicate quality to her voice. I find it very comforting.
	♥ 4:16pm winston legthigh: wow olivia bravo!
	♥ 4:16pm rx scabin: Oh my, this is lovely and everything you want.
	4:16pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: I was going to say, it sounds just like Olivia!
	♥ 4:16pm Cassettivity: Surfer Billionaire, yes please
	4:17pm Quinn02: Joey, what is the name of the Cambodian music documentary? Sounds like something good
	♥ 4:17pm Jeff Moore: It's been in my Bandcamp basket waiting 'til... hey, it's Friday!

	♥ 4:17pm olivia: verry sweet of you to play sheila!! thank you <3 <3
	♥ 4:18pm rx scabin: Please do not tell me that the *88 is a reference to her birth year.
	4:18pm djsheilab: Playing it with pleasure, olivia!

	♥ 4:20pm rx scabin: Bruce is in Olivia's bandcamp profile picture.
	4:20pm lunarleigh: Wow, wonderful to hear Olivia Ravioli ;)
	4:20pm Gnomon: Does there exist anywhere a compilation of WFMU DJ bands and projects? Scott, Olivia, Creamo, Kellen, I know there must be more.
	♥ 4:20pm tim from washington: Olivia's track was great!!!! Her music sounds like her show which makes the music even more enjoyable for me.
	♥ 4:20pm Michael 98145: yes
	♥ 4:20pm rx scabin: Purchased
	4:20pm djsheilab: Gnomon—That's such a great idea!
	♥ 4:21pm Jason from Houston: Fine songs, olivia! Listened to it a couple of evenings ago with pleasure.
	4:21pm Gnomon: That would be a heck of a marathon premium: the WFMU side projects boxed set
	♥ 4:21pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Purchased and in the queue to annoy the wife with this weekend. Woo!
	4:21pm Quinn02: Thanks Joey, I’ll look for it!

	4:22pm Gnomon: djsheilab: well, you’re already buttering up the music director, I think you could make it happen!
	♥ 4:22pm Will in Norman: oh i that's why i recognized the voice on that olivia 88 track! I thought it sounded like 1 of the DJs on here, was thinking it might be a coincidence
	4:23pm Rick G: @Tim from WA: have you been to Bigfoot’s in Bremerton yet?
	♥ 4:23pm tim from washington: Re: Cambodian Cassette Archives. That was one of the releases close to 2rs ago that sent me in the deep end of werid international pop and folk music. I have yet to surface. Thanks for playng it, Sheila!
	4:23pm jess: @michael thank you!!
	♥ 4:23pm Michael 98145: Enjoy all the Cléa Vincent tracks
	♥ 4:24pm tim from washington: @Rick G - Yes! a few times so far. It's nice to have a record store nearby for sure. I've found a few things at decent prices. The owner's seem like real nice people. How about you?
	♥ 4:25pm JohnEBGood: Clash version?
	♥ 4:25pm tim from washington: I thought the opening sneeze was the Chakchakas "Jungle Fever" for a quick second.
	♥ 4:26pm Guido from Cologne: "Gesundheit!" Hahahaha!
	♥ 4:26pm Jason from Houston: A song for getting Covid swabbed.
	4:26pm Joey: Quinn02..you can watch it on the Roku network or on TUBI...

	4:30pm Rick G: @tim: not yet, might check it out tomorrow. Thanks! Always nice to support friendly local small businesses.
	♥ 4:31pm rx scabin: @DJ Sheila B - The Gary Lucas with Jeff Buckley would make good occasional men.
	♥ 4:31pm Gurldoggie: Bigfoots in Bremerton? That's a new one to me. Have to check it out next time I'm over that way.
	♥ 4:32pm tim from washington: Have fun Rick G.
	♥ 4:34pm Gurldoggie: Nice to see the growing PNW contingent on here. I'm a big fan of the Tacoma, WA record stores myself. I never miss a chance to do the 6th Ave. vinyl crawl when I'm in that town. @Tim did you make it to Wall of Sound when you were in Seattle?
	4:34pm Rick G: @Gurldoggie: even Port Orchard has a store now, Vinyl Injection in the humble little S Kitsap Mall.
	♥ 4:35pm tim from washington: Hey Gurldoggie! Yeah, it's down the street from the ferry terminal in the same building as the book store. Re: Gang of Four. It was fantastic! So good. The band had so much energy and good spirit. It was great to hear songs I know backward and forward played live. I think the singer John King went to the same front man school as Bob Pollard (except John didn't down 30 beers during their set).
	♥ 4:37pm Listener Howard & the Cats: I loved Hanway street!
	4:37pm Rob Kopp: I thought Shirley Abicair was from Australia. Love her cover of the Simon & Garfunkel song Flowers never bend with the rainfall.
	♥ 4:38pm tim from washington: @Gurldoggie: Wall of Sound was closed by the time I got there but I did go to Zion's Gate which was cool. I picked up some weirdo cassettes to send to a buddy.
	♥ 4:38pm Dano59: ooh Olivia!
	♥ 4:40pm tim from washington: Great story about hanging out in London, Sheila.
	4:40pm djsheilab: Listener Howard & the Cats—The best!
	♥ 4:42pm rx scabin: I looked in my Bandcamp yesterday and thought, "where has all this Jenny Hval come from?" Oh right, Sheila B.
	4:42pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—Yes, but she's in with my British girls collection, along with Sharon Tandy from South Africa.
	♥ 4:42pm JohnEBGood: My Aunt Helcha had this octagonal LP called Through the Past Darkly i was like this is not The Beatles. Shes a Rainbow
	4:43pm Gnomon: Sheila, is this artist from the Bay Area by chance? I think she mentioned a group I used to be a part of but I might have misheard
	♥ 4:43pm rx scabin: Sheila B- British colonial girls?
	4:44pm djsheilab: Gnomon—Jenny Hval is from Norway.
	4:44pm Gnomon: Oops I looked it up, I suppose not.
	♥ 4:45pm winston legthigh: thanks djsheilab. early bird special time for us old fuddy duddies in florida. have a nice weekend everybody.
	♥ 4:45pm Handy Haversack: Later on, winston!
	♥ 4:46pm winston legthigh: 🍸
	♥ 4:46pm DjLorraine: The Janet Jackson choreographer could be Anthony Thomas.
	♥ 4:47pm Bimbus Bambus: This is an amazing Sex and the City theme remix! :P
	♥ 4:48pm tim from washington: Are you going to Bill Knapp's, Winston? Have a good night!
	♥ 4:49pm rx scabin: Some parts of Florida are a different time zone.
	4:50pm Droog: Just discovered Mimi Kobayashi did some of the music for Urusei Yatsura. No wonder it sounded so familiar!
	♥ 4:52pm Bimbus Bambus: Ooh, vintage Charli
	♥ 4:53pm luka: saw Charli play this in a tiny room right before coming a superstar. remember that first darkwave record? good afternoon, all.
	4:56pm djsheilab: luka—Ooh! To see Charli in the earlier days!
	♥ 4:56pm Dano59: I just played this Kane Triplets on-air last wk. Great minds!
	♥ 4:56pm rx scabin: The arrangement!
	♥ 4:56pm DjLorraine: 😎
	♥ 4:56pm Gurldoggie: Huh. Who know there were words to this one? Learn something every day around here.
	♥ 4:57pm Handy Haversack: DjLorraine, Cooh John, Dano59 -- hey there!
	♥ 4:57pm Bimbus Bambus: I give this song 5/4
	♥ 4:57pm Frank Zaatar: Well, now we know how the B-52's got their start.
	♥ 4:57pm Jason from Houston: Bimbus Bambus LOL
	4:58pm djsheilab: Bimbus Bambus—HAHAHA!
	♥ 4:59pm coco: loving all this music so.....
	♥ 5:00pm loveless: Loving this spy interlude!!! Hello all.
	5:00pm djsheilab: Thanks coco!
	♥ 5:00pm Chalmers: Reminds me of "Moonstruck" where Olympia Dukakis yells at her cheating husband Vincent Gardenia for avoiding her by going in the other room and playinig "that Vikki Carr" record.
	♥ 5:01pm Franco Twinkie: Hey Shelia! My parents took me and my sister to see The Silencers when it first came out in 1967. I think after that, they started sending us to the movies by ourselves.
	5:02pm djsheilab: Hey loveless, Dano59, Franco Twinkie, Chalmers + Frank Zaatar!
	♥ 5:08pm grtyvr: So trippy
	♥ 5:09pm tim from washington: I really need to dive into The Prisoner. It looks so cool.
	♥ 5:09pm Listener Howard & the Cats: OMG, The Prisoner is the BEST!
	♥ 5:09pm rx scabin: DJ Sheila B - the final episode is mind bending.
	5:09pm squidbeak: You are number 6
	♥ 5:10pm rx scabin: All.
	5:10pm PJ: I think The Prisoner was meant to be contemporary with the late 1960s. No. 6 was supposed to be John Drake, McGoohan's character from Danger Man/Secret Agent, but for rights reasons they couldn't say that. Obv the aesthetic in the Village is its own, though.
	♥ 5:11pm Joe R.: oh wow, you are in for a ride, Shiela! Uncle Michael had a really cool Prisoner themed show iirc
	♥ 5:11pm Chalmers: "The Spy and the Traitor" is a true story, but it reads like a novel. www.amazon.com...
	♥ 5:11pm Franco Twinkie: I think spy novels leave something to be desired. Stick with movies.
	5:11pm michael z: Smiley’s People. Or The Night Manager. Still John Le Carré.
	♥ 5:11pm Frank Zaatar: I call my sourdough starter Rover.
	♥ 5:11pm ranjit: i've never been to Elsewhere! But i'm gonna see Anna Meredith there next week.
	5:12pm ami ad: Hello DJ. Hello all. The Charm School - Nelson DeMille
	5:12pm PJ: I mean, a hippie shows up in one of the last episodes, as does a Beatles song.
	5:12pm ?: Tinker, Tailor, Soldier Spy by John Le Carre
	♥ 5:12pm Joe R.: and here’s that show wfmu.org...
	5:12pm dreamyandseedy: spy novel rec: the slough house series by mick herron is so good.
	♥ 5:12pm JW MCCORMACK: Hey Sheila, I love The Prisoner and went as Number Six for Halloween one year. I recommend The Little Drummer Girl by John le Carré.
	5:12pm Cora: definitely read Spy Who Came in from the Cold anyway!! it is exquisite. All the Smiley Le Carré books are a dream, especially Spy Who Came in from the Cold and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. And definitely watch the Tinker Tailor BBC miniseries with Alec Guiness
	5:12pm Emba: Tinker tailor soldier spy is like the standard rec I think! Psyched for new Jane weaver!
	♥ 5:13pm _Ike_: @chalmers and anyone else who uses the sinister force known as Amazon, please use the Smile Amazon link that benefits WFMU at no extra cost to you! smile.amazon.com... And choose "Auricle Communications" as the Smile beneficiary. That's WFMU.
	5:13pm djsheilab: Ooooohhh thank you for all these suggestions! Jean Le Carré really is the one, isn't he?
	5:14pm ?: It Can't Always Be Caviar;: The Fabulously Daring Adventures and Exquisite Cooking Recipes of the Involuntary Secret Agent Thomas Lieven
	♥ 5:14pm Handy Haversack: Which of course led to one of the great moments in Simpsons history. "Why did you think a giant balloon would stop them?" "Shut up! That's why!" Le Carré is great. So is Graham Greene.
	5:15pm PJ: If you like '60s spy stuff, Len Deighton's Ipcress File series is good, and the movies with Michael Caine as Harry Palmer (unnamed in the novels) are great.
	♥ 5:15pm rx scabin: Graham Greene is a g-d.
	♥ 5:16pm _Ike_: I'll have to read Tinker Tailor someday so that I can finally understand WTF was going on in that Gary Oldman movie. It was absolutely incomprehensible and Oldman seemed to be playing a character so weirdly translucent that he almost disappeared off the goddamn screen. I have to assume that 2 hours simply isn't enough to tell that story.
	♥ 5:16pm rx scabin: TORTURED.
	5:16pm Cora: as a former MI5 officer, Le Carré's knowledge of and disdain for the field really hit
	♥ 5:17pm Franco Twinkie: I would recommend Poisoner In Chief by Stephan Kinzar. It's a real life account of The CIA using LSD as a secret weapon. I'm sure you've heard of MK ULTRA. Considering your recent experiences with magic mushrooms to get to the other side, this might be right up your alley.
	5:18pm djsheilab: Ike—I had the same problem with Tinker Tailor. TOTALLY LOST.
	5:18pm PJ: @rx scabin: One thing I love about the Prisoner is the way it tackles existential questions in the context of a spy story, and the finale really drives those questions home.
	5:18pm Rick A: Hello Sheila and All, Frederick Forsyth's The Day of the Jackal about an attempt to assassinate Charles De Gaulle is really great. The 70s film with Edward Fox as the title character is a great slow build thriller.
	5:19pm djsheilab: Rick A—Loved the Day of the Jackal! The film.
	♥ 5:19pm rx scabin: PJ indeed. One of my fondest memories is watching with my older brother and being completely discombobulated.
	5:20pm djsheilab: Franco Twinkie—I am intreeeeeged! Thanks!
	♥ 5:20pm rx scabin: PJ All you need is love.
	♥ 5:20pm Handy Haversack: I thought the more recent Tinker Tailor adaptation was garbage, but the BBC one is great. I also dearly love The Americans TV show. I thought The Honourable Woman with Maggie Gyllenhall from a few years back was very good. And The Little Drummer Girl (Le Carre adaptation) also.
	♥ 5:21pm Michael 98145: I need to re-read Spy Who Came in from the Cold
	5:21pm DavidL: No help on spy novels, but dang that Jane Weaver track was single-of-the-week-worthy… did NOT expect the synth arpeggiation bridge, very cool
	5:22pm djsheilab: DavidL—Right?!!! Thanks for letting me know how much you dig it.
	5:22pm lunarleigh: Another movie based on a Real life spy, Mo Berg, is The Catcher was a Spy, released in 2018. I’m sure there are books written about him. But it’s a pretty fascinating story and a pretty good movie! Mo Berg was a major league baseball player, Ivy League graduate, attorney and top-secret spy during WWII.
	5:22pm Rick A: Sheila, I read the novel as a teenager and really liked it as well. There are also Graham Greene's espionage novels: The Quiet American, Our Man in Havana, and The Honorary Consul among others.
	5:22pm Non-Me: Day of the Jackal. The film is great too.
	5:22pm PJ: Another great spy series, from the '80s, is Reilly: Ace of Spies, starring Sam Neill as Sidney Reilly, who was an actual Russian agent/double agent operating before and during the Russian Revolution/Civil War.
	5:23pm dreamyandseedy: ugh this library music is so good!! the whole afro rock album is amazing!!!!
	5:24pm djsheilab: dreamyandseedy—So heavy on MOOD!
	♥ 5:24pm Mike W: oh Judee
	♥ 5:24pm tim from washington: I've never read any spy novels. These suggestions are making me intrigued.
	5:24pm djsheilab: The great spy suggestions keep coming. Thanks gang!
	5:24pm Joey: Judee died too young!! Thanks for playing!
	♥ 5:25pm tim from washington: For cold war spy spoofs I really like Spies Like Us. Good music too.
	♥ 5:25pm Franco Twinkie: Also, The current issue of the New Yorker has a feature article about the clinical trails of the psychedelic toads of the Sonoran Desert, and how their secretions are the the new DMT. For a preview, enlarge my avatar. I was reading it this morning while I was eating breakfast.
	♥ 5:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: "You enlarge my avatar" would make a great song lyric or possibly a band name.
	♥ 5:27pm Franco Twinkie: Haha!
	5:27pm djsheilab: Genesis at 45 RPM!!!!!
	♥ 5:27pm diciassette: Toad Smoke!
	♥ 5:28pm Barney Grubbs: Angelmaker by Nick Harkaway (pseudonym of the pseudonymous le Carre's son) is an entertaining take on a spy novel
	5:28pm PJ: Len Deighton's Bernard Sampson series is also good, and was made into a good series starring Ian Holm.
	♥ 5:28pm coco: The Lamb....!
	♥ 5:28pm Franco Twinkie: Dici!
	5:28pm Joey: Sheila, you would like VERY early Genesis!!
	5:29pm the serpent: Bear genesis song ever
	♥ 5:29pm Rick from SC: Great choice
	♥ 5:29pm Handy Haversack: tim: Soulfinger!
	5:29pm the serpent: Oops best of course
	♥ 5:29pm rx scabin: Who is this? :)
	5:29pm djsheilab: Joey—I'm slowly working my way through their catalogue but it's hard to tear myself away from my favorites, which I want to listen to over and over and over again.
	♥ 5:30pm tim from washington: Nice Genesis cut, Sheila. And those drums too!
	♥ 5:30pm diciassette: Franco! You are a good source of RM
	♥ 5:30pm Chalmers: @Ike, I have a bookstore in town where I can get most stuff either there or on order, but when I do use Amazon, I'll do that.
	5:31pm Rick A: Classic prog rock! Even then Gabriel's voice is very distinctive.
	♥ 5:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: Occasional man Sir Elton John getting 75th year recognition nearby — www.wfmu.org...
	5:31pm Joey: I got cha!! It's like me with the Small Faces. Anyway, a great early Genesis compliation is called "And The Word Was".beautifully layered songs, you would love it!
	♥ 5:31pm coco: Try Nursery Crimes Sheila. It is also a good album and the album illustration are pretty cool
	♥ 5:32pm tim from washington: @Handy - you know it! The theme song's not bad either. The "what's a dickfer?" joke was told frequently and often in 7th grade.
	♥ 5:32pm Bryant in TO: Gabriel's voice sounds like he was born with a frog in his throat. And it adds, I dunno, a richness to it? In any case, great voice
	♥ 5:34pm Franco Twinkie: Dici, that's because I'm a west cost hippie book worm.
	♥ 5:35pm rx scabin: This song (CC) brings back so much: my dead friend Matthew Miller for one, acid, and so much other music. RIP MM who was not always a great person as we all are not.
	♥ 5:39pm iiibeat: Branded To Kill (1967 Suzuki) is an excellent spy film.
	♥ 5:39pm Gurldoggie: I love John LeCarre too - what's not to love?? - but there's lots more great spy fiction out there. Rogue Male by Geoffrey Household is a pretty awesome one to get you rolling. Also a plug for The Ipcress File by Len Deighton which was made into a GREAT movie with Michael Caine!
	♥ 5:39pm luka: endorsement for Branded to Kill backed
	5:40pm Robin in SF: Hi Sheila. "Carpet Crawlers" is a nice track from Genesis's better years; i.e. before P. Gabriel departed.
	♥ 5:40pm Franco Twinkie: I'm listening to this holding my breath Shelia.
	♥ 5:41pm Handy Haversack: Rogue Male is pretty wild, yeah!
	5:41pm ?: So much of Graham Greene is great. I may like his Heart of the Matter the best. A love triangle in South Africa, anguish, deception...
	♥ 5:42pm Tome: my introduction to Genesis was I guess my slightly older cousin taking off my Black Sabbath and flinging it accross the room like a Frisbee and then putting on ie,,,, Selling England by The Pound ,,,
	5:44pm Miss G: Hello to all and thank you in advance to Sheila B for when I can listen on the archives. @Barney Grubbs I saw you rec. Angelmaker by Nick Harkaway and I wanted to add that I read it 3 years ago and it blew my mind, was so great (but, had one scene that gives me nightmares still.)
	5:47pm djsheilab: Hey Tome, Miss G, Robin in SF, iiibeat + Bryant in TO!
	♥ 5:47pm tim from washington: I love the sound of this Carrie Cleveland record.
	♥ 5:52pm Handy Haversack: I think I have read only The Gone-Away World from Harkaway. I'll keep an eye out for Angelmaker. Hi, Miss G! And many thanks, Sheila! Always so wonderful to get the weekend started right here. Stay Booming, all!
	5:52pm Pepe C.: Carrie Cleveland put me in a trance, love her
	5:53pm Miss G: HH, I think you will love the tone and semi-tongue in cheek hard-boiledness of Angelmaker. Y'all have a great weekend!
	♥ 5:53pm Tome: Hey Sheila lovin '; the Boom Boom as always,,, [][][]
	♥ 5:54pm Michael 98145: Thanks for another fine voyage, DJ Sheila 🎵
	♥ 5:54pm radioronan: Thank you, Sheila!
	5:54pm Jeff From Hoboken: Hi again Sheila B! My favorite SPY MOVIE is Mother Night, from the awesome Kurt Vonnegut novel. It's based on A real person, but Kurt Vonnegut changed the character a lot for his story. Thanks again, always love your show!
	5:55pm c2b3: heyyyy
	♥ 5:55pm tim from washington: Holly Golightly! Solid. Thanks for the fantastic show today, Sheila!!!!
	5:55pm Miss G: sigh as always, just a mo-mo of Sheila B's spinning takes a difficult day's woes away -- still feelin' it, but in a new way. . .💙
	5:55pm Rick A: I only knew the version of this song she did with The Greenhornes. I think I like that one better though this is great too. Thank you, Sheila, for another lush Friday afternoon of music.
	5:56pm Clo: Thank you for yet another great three hours, Sheila B. :)
	5:56pm dano59: This set omg
	♥ 5:57pm tim from washington: Sophisticated Boom Boom is the Calgon of our age. " Oh Sheila, take us away!"
	♥ 5:57pm rx scabint: My heavens. It is almost over (until next time). Thank you, Sheila B ans listeners. You have kept that black dog away; he was snuffiling at the door last night.
	♥ 5:57pm Bimbus Bambus: Thank you Sheila for the fantastic post-marathon show and for reminding everyone that excellent music is coming out all the time!
	5:57pm Heidella: Loved the show as always, Happy weekend!
	5:58pm alan the painter: Sheila, yo" voice makes me happy!
	5:58pm jessi: fire set. thanks sheila <3
	♥ 5:59pm Franco Twinkie: Thank you Shelia. Music off - nap time.
	♥ 5:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Sheila. Have a nice weekend!
	♥ 6:00pm diciassette: Thank you Sheila B!
	6:00pm djsheilab: Thank YOU dear listeners! Such a joy bringing you so much new goodness. See you next week! Xoxoxo
	♥ 6:09pm Michael 98145: 🇺🇦
	1:13am majo hasi: Spy (?) suggestion: The Jerry Cornelius Quartet by Michael Moorcock >> start with The Final Program Hard to classify take on 60's counterculture. If David Bowie had been a spy, yeah?

Mom's OK and has food in but still....this is the third Friday in a row that her aide has pulled this shit. Mom really likes her but she is getting less and less reliable, and Mom is afraid to have someone else from teh agency cover due to COVID...

	♥ 3:10pm DjLorraine: What a joy to be a part of a great and wonderful experience!
	3:10pm Listener Robert: Threemoons, is your mother far away? As far as the risk of Covid, it's now about as low as it's ever going to go. So it's a choice of isolate forever, or choose the best time to catch the current, omicron variant.
	3:10pm djsheilab: Robm—I was thinking that Trouble would love the Nyokabi record :)
	♥ 3:10pm McGroovey: It's a kinda nice day.

	♥ 3:12pm Handy Haversack: Do it, Jason! Solidarity, Threemoons.
	♥ 3:12pm Jason from Houston: Congratulations on a stellar marathoning, djsheilab! ♡ ♡ ♡
	3:12pm Robm: @Shelia i think she would too
	3:13pm Listener Robert: If you're vaccinated, the best time to catch it is before the immunization from the vaccine wears off, and then from the infection you'll have the best immunity available. Boosters aren't going to keep working.
	3:14pm djsheilab: Hey Gurldoggie, BH, + WoodsofNH! Thx Jason from Houston. It was stellar indeed! Credit to my fabulous co-hosts Evan "Funk" Davies + Scott Williams. I had a blast with those boyzzz!
	3:14pm Rob Kopp: Well at least a few more notes than just the C in Terry Riley's LP IN C
	3:15pm Clo: This track really does feel like a "vacation from my mind". Wonderful.

	3:17pm djsheilab: Jason from Houston—Yes!
	3:17pm Rob Kopp: I listened to IN C (from 1968) a couple of years ago. I thought there must be something else in 40 minutes than just that C. There wasn't.

	♥ 3:54pm nathan: sheila presents sophisticated bang bang?
	♥ 3:54pm Handy Haversack: That Lykke Li track was going to prompt me to point out that it's just one thin week to Bandcamp Friday -- until I realized it's not going to be on Bandcamp. Nevertheless: one week. Lovely ascot, Sheila! (You never know what sentences you'll end up getting to use on WFMU!)
	♥ 3:55pm Niall: @efd, @B R M: Neat! Honestly, I just tune out for two weeks and let my S4L do the work, ha.

	♥ 3:56pm JohnEBGood: Cher rocked this one!
	3:57pm djsheilab: nathan + JohnEBGood—I haven't heard a bad version of "Bang Bang." Nor "St James Infirmary." Dark, haunting, perfect.

	♥ 4:03pm Mennlinn Rebarts: I love Enka so much!
	♥ 4:03pm Buckaroo: Are those Japanese Retro Hits compilations available on any physical media? Whenever I've looked, they're only available as mp3's or streaming on Spotify.
	♥ 4:04pm Handy Haversack: K8 used to sing "St. James Infirmary" with her jazz band. Not butchering. That was always a highlight of their shows for me.
	♥ 4:05pm JohnEBGood: I love Paula!!!
	♥ 4:07pm Cassettivity: Funny you say that about talking, was just going to write how much I'm enjoying listening to it! Your commentary is crushing it!

	4:11pm Joey: Hey Sheila!! Hey everyone!!! Happy Friday!
	4:11pm djsheilab: Hey Mennlinn Rebarts + Joey!

	♥ 4:13pm Matt Warwick: AAYyyyyoooooooo!
	♥ 4:13pm tim from washington: @Gurldoggie - are you still here? I didn't see your Gang of Four question before I stepped out for lunch.
	♥ 4:13pm Handy Haversack: What the what! I'm raviloi-izing over here!
	4:14pm Joey: Sheila, watched the Cambodian music document AGAIN. Those songs from so long ago are so haunting, and disturbing at the same time!! I can't get some of them out of my mind. My daughter Jess did a paper on it for college!
	♥ 4:14pm JohnEBGood: Forever My Girl : )
	4:14pm djsheilab: Matt Warwick—Woohoo!!!!
	♥ 4:14pm Buckaroo: @djsheilab: Thanks!

	♥ 4:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Boyardees songs great!
	4:16pm djsheilab: She's got such a delicate quality to her voice. I find it very comforting.
	♥ 4:16pm winston legthigh: wow olivia bravo!
	♥ 4:16pm rx scabin: Oh my, this is lovely and everything you want.
	4:16pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: I was going to say, it sounds just like Olivia!
	♥ 4:16pm Cassettivity: Surfer Billionaire, yes please
	4:17pm Quinn02: Joey, what is the name of the Cambodian music documentary? Sounds like something good
	♥ 4:17pm Jeff Moore: It's been in my Bandcamp basket waiting 'til... hey, it's Friday!

	♥ 4:17pm olivia: verry sweet of you to play sheila!! thank you <3 <3
	♥ 4:18pm rx scabin: Please do not tell me that the *88 is a reference to her birth year.
	4:18pm djsheilab: Playing it with pleasure, olivia!
	♥ 4:18pm Bimbus Bambus: It refers to the 87 other Olivias she's conquered.
	♥ 4:19pm JohnEBGood: 905!
	♥ 4:19pm chresti: 88 is my son's birth year.
	♥ 4:19pm Handy Haversack: Great stuff, Olivia! So glad to hear it! Yet another artist discovered on Sophisticated Boom Boom!
	♥ 4:19pm olivia: hahha @ Bimbus Bambus!
	4:19pm Joey: ..it's called "Don't Think ive Forgotten" 2014. It's something you really should see.
	♥ 4:19pm Handy Haversack: Bimbus Bambus: There can be only one!
	♥ 4:20pm rx scabin: Bruce is in Olivia's bandcamp profile picture.
	4:20pm lunarleigh: Wow, wonderful to hear Olivia Ravioli ;)
	4:20pm Gnomon: Does there exist anywhere a compilation of WFMU DJ bands and projects? Scott, Olivia, Creamo, Kellen, I know there must be more.
	♥ 4:20pm tim from washington: Olivia's track was great!!!! Her music sounds like her show which makes the music even more enjoyable for me.
	♥ 4:20pm Michael 98145: yes
	♥ 4:20pm rx scabin: Purchased
	4:20pm djsheilab: Gnomon—That's such a great idea!
	♥ 4:21pm Jason from Houston: Fine songs, olivia! Listened to it a couple of evenings ago with pleasure.
	4:21pm Gnomon: That would be a heck of a marathon premium: the WFMU side projects boxed set
	♥ 4:21pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Purchased and in the queue to annoy the wife with this weekend. Woo!
	4:21pm Quinn02: Thanks Joey, I’ll look for it!
	♥ 4:21pm chresti: So I've been looking at the marathon widget and the total is going backwords?
	4:22pm jess: how do i listen to olivia 88!?
	♥ 4:22pm chresti: *on the home page
	♥ 4:22pm Michael 98145: @jess, olivia88.bandcamp.com...
	4:22pm Gnomon: djsheilab: well, you’re already buttering up the music director, I think you could make it happen!
	♥ 4:22pm Will in Norman: oh i that's why i recognized the voice on that olivia 88 track! I thought it sounded like 1 of the DJs on here, was thinking it might be a coincidence
	4:23pm Rick G: @Tim from WA: have you been to Bigfoot’s in Bremerton yet?
	♥ 4:23pm tim from washington: Re: Cambodian Cassette Archives. That was one of the releases close to 2rs ago that sent me in the deep end of werid international pop and folk music. I have yet to surface. Thanks for playng it, Sheila!
	4:23pm jess: @michael thank you!!
	♥ 4:23pm Michael 98145: Enjoy all the Cléa Vincent tracks
	♥ 4:24pm tim from washington: @Rick G - Yes! a few times so far. It's nice to have a record store nearby for sure. I've found a few things at decent prices. The owner's seem like real nice people. How about you?
	♥ 4:25pm JohnEBGood: Clash version?
	♥ 4:25pm tim from washington: I thought the opening sneeze was the Chakchakas "Jungle Fever" for a quick second.
	♥ 4:26pm Guido from Cologne: "Gesundheit!" Hahahaha!
	♥ 4:26pm Jason from Houston: A song for getting Covid swabbed.
	4:26pm Joey: Quinn02..you can watch it on the Roku network or on TUBI...
	♥ 4:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: ARB & Solo Mon aware of this one? Haha!
	♥ 4:28pm Michael 98145: ( tree pollen bad around here this week )
	♥ 4:28pm JohnEBGood: Armageddon time
	♥ 4:30pm nathan: LOVE this guitar sound
	4:30pm Rick G: @tim: not yet, might check it out tomorrow. Thanks! Always nice to support friendly local small businesses.
	♥ 4:31pm rx scabin: @DJ Sheila B - The Gary Lucas with Jeff Buckley would make good occasional men.
	♥ 4:31pm Gurldoggie: Bigfoots in Bremerton? That's a new one to me. Have to check it out next time I'm over that way.
	♥ 4:32pm tim from washington: Have fun Rick G.
	♥ 4:34pm Gurldoggie: Nice to see the growing PNW contingent on here. I'm a big fan of the Tacoma, WA record stores myself. I never miss a chance to do the 6th Ave. vinyl crawl when I'm in that town. @Tim did you make it to Wall of Sound when you were in Seattle?
	4:34pm Rick G: @Gurldoggie: even Port Orchard has a store now, Vinyl Injection in the humble little S Kitsap Mall.
	♥ 4:35pm tim from washington: Hey Gurldoggie! Yeah, it's down the street from the ferry terminal in the same building as the book store. Re: Gang of Four. It was fantastic! So good. The band had so much energy and good spirit. It was great to hear songs I know backward and forward played live. I think the singer John King went to the same front man school as Bob Pollard (except John didn't down 30 beers during their set).
	♥ 4:37pm Listener Howard & the Cats: I loved Hanway street!
	4:37pm Rob Kopp: I thought Shirley Abicair was from Australia. Love her cover of the Simon & Garfunkel song Flowers never bend with the rainfall.
	♥ 4:38pm tim from washington: @Gurldoggie: Wall of Sound was closed by the time I got there but I did go to Zion's Gate which was cool. I picked up some weirdo cassettes to send to a buddy.
	♥ 4:38pm Dano59: ooh Olivia!
	♥ 4:40pm tim from washington: Great story about hanging out in London, Sheila.
	4:40pm djsheilab: Listener Howard & the Cats—The best!
	♥ 4:42pm rx scabin: I looked in my Bandcamp yesterday and thought, "where has all this Jenny Hval come from?" Oh right, Sheila B.
	4:42pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—Yes, but she's in with my British girls collection, along with Sharon Tandy from South Africa.
	♥ 4:42pm JohnEBGood: My Aunt Helcha had this octagonal LP called Through the Past Darkly i was like this is not The Beatles. Shes a Rainbow
	4:43pm Gnomon: Sheila, is this artist from the Bay Area by chance? I think she mentioned a group I used to be a part of but I might have misheard
	♥ 4:43pm rx scabin: Sheila B- British colonial girls?
	4:44pm djsheilab: Gnomon—Jenny Hval is from Norway.
	4:44pm Gnomon: Oops I looked it up, I suppose not.
	♥ 4:45pm winston legthigh: thanks djsheilab. early bird special time for us old fuddy duddies in florida. have a nice weekend everybody.
	♥ 4:45pm Handy Haversack: Later on, winston!
	♥ 4:46pm winston legthigh: 🍸
	♥ 4:46pm DjLorraine: The Janet Jackson choreographer could be Anthony Thomas.
	♥ 4:47pm Bimbus Bambus: This is an amazing Sex and the City theme remix! :P
	♥ 4:48pm tim from washington: Are you going to Bill Knapp's, Winston? Have a good night!
	♥ 4:49pm rx scabin: Some parts of Florida are a different time zone.
	4:50pm Droog: Just discovered Mimi Kobayashi did some of the music for Urusei Yatsura. No wonder it sounded so familiar!
	♥ 4:52pm Bimbus Bambus: Ooh, vintage Charli
	♥ 4:53pm luka: saw Charli play this in a tiny room right before coming a superstar. remember that first darkwave record? good afternoon, all.
	4:56pm djsheilab: luka—Ooh! To see Charli in the earlier days!
	♥ 4:56pm Dano59: I just played this Kane Triplets on-air last wk. Great minds!
	♥ 4:56pm rx scabin: The arrangement!
	♥ 4:56pm DjLorraine: 😎
	♥ 4:56pm Gurldoggie: Huh. Who know there were words to this one? Learn something every day around here.
	♥ 4:57pm Handy Haversack: DjLorraine, Cooh John, Dano59 -- hey there!
	♥ 4:57pm Bimbus Bambus: I give this song 5/4
	♥ 4:57pm Frank Zaatar: Well, now we know how the B-52's got their start.
	♥ 4:57pm Jason from Houston: Bimbus Bambus LOL
	4:58pm djsheilab: Bimbus Bambus—HAHAHA!
	♥ 4:59pm coco: loving all this music so.....
	♥ 5:00pm loveless: Loving this spy interlude!!! Hello all.
	5:00pm djsheilab: Thanks coco!
	♥ 5:00pm Chalmers: Reminds me of "Moonstruck" where Olympia Dukakis yells at her cheating husband Vincent Gardenia for avoiding her by going in the other room and playinig "that Vikki Carr" record.
	♥ 5:01pm Franco Twinkie: Hey Shelia! My parents took me and my sister to see The Silencers when it first came out in 1967. I think after that, they started sending us to the movies by ourselves.
	5:02pm djsheilab: Hey loveless, Dano59, Franco Twinkie, Chalmers + Frank Zaatar!
	♥ 5:08pm grtyvr: So trippy
	♥ 5:09pm tim from washington: I really need to dive into The Prisoner. It looks so cool.
	♥ 5:09pm Listener Howard & the Cats: OMG, The Prisoner is the BEST!
	♥ 5:09pm rx scabin: DJ Sheila B - the final episode is mind bending.
	5:09pm squidbeak: You are number 6
	♥ 5:10pm rx scabin: All.
	5:10pm PJ: I think The Prisoner was meant to be contemporary with the late 1960s. No. 6 was supposed to be John Drake, McGoohan's character from Danger Man/Secret Agent, but for rights reasons they couldn't say that. Obv the aesthetic in the Village is its own, though.
	♥ 5:11pm Joe R.: oh wow, you are in for a ride, Shiela! Uncle Michael had a really cool Prisoner themed show iirc
	♥ 5:11pm Chalmers: "The Spy and the Traitor" is a true story, but it reads like a novel. www.amazon.com...
	♥ 5:11pm Franco Twinkie: I think spy novels leave something to be desired. Stick with movies.
	5:11pm michael z: Smiley’s People. Or The Night Manager. Still John Le Carré.
	♥ 5:11pm Frank Zaatar: I call my sourdough starter Rover.
	♥ 5:11pm ranjit: i've never been to Elsewhere! But i'm gonna see Anna Meredith there next week.
	5:12pm ami ad: Hello DJ. Hello all. The Charm School - Nelson DeMille
	5:12pm PJ: I mean, a hippie shows up in one of the last episodes, as does a Beatles song.
	5:12pm ?: Tinker, Tailor, Soldier Spy by John Le Carre
	♥ 5:12pm Joe R.: and here’s that show wfmu.org...
	5:12pm dreamyandseedy: spy novel rec: the slough house series by mick herron is so good.
	♥ 5:12pm JW MCCORMACK: Hey Sheila, I love The Prisoner and went as Number Six for Halloween one year. I recommend The Little Drummer Girl by John le Carré.
	5:12pm Cora: definitely read Spy Who Came in from the Cold anyway!! it is exquisite. All the Smiley Le Carré books are a dream, especially Spy Who Came in from the Cold and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. And definitely watch the Tinker Tailor BBC miniseries with Alec Guiness
	5:12pm Emba: Tinker tailor soldier spy is like the standard rec I think! Psyched for new Jane weaver!
	♥ 5:13pm _Ike_: @chalmers and anyone else who uses the sinister force known as Amazon, please use the Smile Amazon link that benefits WFMU at no extra cost to you! smile.amazon.com... And choose "Auricle Communications" as the Smile beneficiary. That's WFMU.
	5:13pm djsheilab: Ooooohhh thank you for all these suggestions! Jean Le Carré really is the one, isn't he?
	5:14pm ?: It Can't Always Be Caviar;: The Fabulously Daring Adventures and Exquisite Cooking Recipes of the Involuntary Secret Agent Thomas Lieven
	♥ 5:14pm Handy Haversack: Which of course led to one of the great moments in Simpsons history. "Why did you think a giant balloon would stop them?" "Shut up! That's why!" Le Carré is great. So is Graham Greene.
	5:15pm PJ: If you like '60s spy stuff, Len Deighton's Ipcress File series is good, and the movies with Michael Caine as Harry Palmer (unnamed in the novels) are great.
	♥ 5:15pm rx scabin: Graham Greene is a g-d.
	♥ 5:16pm _Ike_: I'll have to read Tinker Tailor someday so that I can finally understand WTF was going on in that Gary Oldman movie. It was absolutely incomprehensible and Oldman seemed to be playing a character so weirdly translucent that he almost disappeared off the goddamn screen. I have to assume that 2 hours simply isn't enough to tell that story.
	♥ 5:16pm rx scabin: TORTURED.
	5:16pm Cora: as a former MI5 officer, Le Carré's knowledge of and disdain for the field really hit
	♥ 5:17pm Franco Twinkie: I would recommend Poisoner In Chief by Stephan Kinzar. It's a real life account of The CIA using LSD as a secret weapon. I'm sure you've heard of MK ULTRA. Considering your recent experiences with magic mushrooms to get to the other side, this might be right up your alley.
	5:18pm djsheilab: Ike—I had the same problem with Tinker Tailor. TOTALLY LOST.
	5:18pm PJ: @rx scabin: One thing I love about the Prisoner is the way it tackles existential questions in the context of a spy story, and the finale really drives those questions home.
	5:18pm Rick A: Hello Sheila and All, Frederick Forsyth's The Day of the Jackal about an attempt to assassinate Charles De Gaulle is really great. The 70s film with Edward Fox as the title character is a great slow build thriller.
	5:19pm djsheilab: Rick A—Loved the Day of the Jackal! The film.
	♥ 5:19pm rx scabin: PJ indeed. One of my fondest memories is watching with my older brother and being completely discombobulated.
	5:20pm djsheilab: Franco Twinkie—I am intreeeeeged! Thanks!
	♥ 5:20pm rx scabin: PJ All you need is love.
	♥ 5:20pm Handy Haversack: I thought the more recent Tinker Tailor adaptation was garbage, but the BBC one is great. I also dearly love The Americans TV show. I thought The Honourable Woman with Maggie Gyllenhall from a few years back was very good. And The Little Drummer Girl (Le Carre adaptation) also.
	♥ 5:21pm Michael 98145: I need to re-read Spy Who Came in from the Cold
	5:21pm DavidL: No help on spy novels, but dang that Jane Weaver track was single-of-the-week-worthy… did NOT expect the synth arpeggiation bridge, very cool
	5:22pm djsheilab: DavidL—Right?!!! Thanks for letting me know how much you dig it.
	5:22pm lunarleigh: Another movie based on a Real life spy, Mo Berg, is The Catcher was a Spy, released in 2018. I’m sure there are books written about him. But it’s a pretty fascinating story and a pretty good movie! Mo Berg was a major league baseball player, Ivy League graduate, attorney and top-secret spy during WWII.
	5:22pm Rick A: Sheila, I read the novel as a teenager and really liked it as well. There are also Graham Greene's espionage novels: The Quiet American, Our Man in Havana, and The Honorary Consul among others.
	5:22pm Non-Me: Day of the Jackal. The film is great too.
	5:22pm PJ: Another great spy series, from the '80s, is Reilly: Ace of Spies, starring Sam Neill as Sidney Reilly, who was an actual Russian agent/double agent operating before and during the Russian Revolution/Civil War.
	5:23pm dreamyandseedy: ugh this library music is so good!! the whole afro rock album is amazing!!!!
	5:24pm djsheilab: dreamyandseedy—So heavy on MOOD!
	♥ 5:24pm Mike W: oh Judee
	♥ 5:24pm tim from washington: I've never read any spy novels. These suggestions are making me intrigued.
	5:24pm djsheilab: The great spy suggestions keep coming. Thanks gang!
	5:24pm Joey: Judee died too young!! Thanks for playing!
	♥ 5:25pm tim from washington: For cold war spy spoofs I really like Spies Like Us. Good music too.
	♥ 5:25pm Franco Twinkie: Also, The current issue of the New Yorker has a feature article about the clinical trails of the psychedelic toads of the Sonoran Desert, and how their secretions are the the new DMT. For a preview, enlarge my avatar. I was reading it this morning while I was eating breakfast.
	♥ 5:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: "You enlarge my avatar" would make a great song lyric or possibly a band name.
	♥ 5:27pm Franco Twinkie: Haha!
	5:27pm djsheilab: Genesis at 45 RPM!!!!!
	♥ 5:27pm diciassette: Toad Smoke!
	♥ 5:28pm Barney Grubbs: Angelmaker by Nick Harkaway (pseudonym of the pseudonymous le Carre's son) is an entertaining take on a spy novel
	5:28pm PJ: Len Deighton's Bernard Sampson series is also good, and was made into a good series starring Ian Holm.
	♥ 5:28pm coco: The Lamb....!
	♥ 5:28pm Franco Twinkie: Dici!
	5:28pm Joey: Sheila, you would like VERY early Genesis!!
	5:29pm the serpent: Bear genesis song ever
	♥ 5:29pm Rick from SC: Great choice
	♥ 5:29pm Handy Haversack: tim: Soulfinger!
	5:29pm the serpent: Oops best of course
	♥ 5:29pm rx scabin: Who is this? :)
	5:29pm djsheilab: Joey—I'm slowly working my way through their catalogue but it's hard to tear myself away from my favorites, which I want to listen to over and over and over again.
	♥ 5:30pm tim from washington: Nice Genesis cut, Sheila. And those drums too!
	♥ 5:30pm diciassette: Franco! You are a good source of RM
	♥ 5:30pm Chalmers: @Ike, I have a bookstore in town where I can get most stuff either there or on order, but when I do use Amazon, I'll do that.
	5:31pm Rick A: Classic prog rock! Even then Gabriel's voice is very distinctive.
	♥ 5:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: Occasional man Sir Elton John getting 75th year recognition nearby — www.wfmu.org...
	5:31pm Joey: I got cha!! It's like me with the Small Faces. Anyway, a great early Genesis compliation is called "And The Word Was".beautifully layered songs, you would love it!
	♥ 5:31pm coco: Try Nursery Crimes Sheila. It is also a good album and the album illustration are pretty cool
	♥ 5:32pm tim from washington: @Handy - you know it! The theme song's not bad either. The "what's a dickfer?" joke was told frequently and often in 7th grade.
	♥ 5:32pm Bryant in TO: Gabriel's voice sounds like he was born with a frog in his throat. And it adds, I dunno, a richness to it? In any case, great voice
	♥ 5:34pm Franco Twinkie: Dici, that's because I'm a west cost hippie book worm.
	♥ 5:35pm rx scabin: This song (CC) brings back so much: my dead friend Matthew Miller for one, acid, and so much other music. RIP MM who was not always a great person as we all are not.
	♥ 5:39pm iiibeat: Branded To Kill (1967 Suzuki) is an excellent spy film.
	♥ 5:39pm Gurldoggie: I love John LeCarre too - what's not to love?? - but there's lots more great spy fiction out there. Rogue Male by Geoffrey Household is a pretty awesome one to get you rolling. Also a plug for The Ipcress File by Len Deighton which was made into a GREAT movie with Michael Caine!
	♥ 5:39pm luka: endorsement for Branded to Kill backed
	5:40pm Robin in SF: Hi Sheila. "Carpet Crawlers" is a nice track from Genesis's better years; i.e. before P. Gabriel departed.
	♥ 5:40pm Franco Twinkie: I'm listening to this holding my breath Shelia.
	♥ 5:41pm Handy Haversack: Rogue Male is pretty wild, yeah!
	5:41pm ?: So much of Graham Greene is great. I may like his Heart of the Matter the best. A love triangle in South Africa, anguish, deception...
	♥ 5:42pm Tome: my introduction to Genesis was I guess my slightly older cousin taking off my Black Sabbath and flinging it accross the room like a Frisbee and then putting on ie,,,, Selling England by The Pound ,,,
	5:44pm Miss G: Hello to all and thank you in advance to Sheila B for when I can listen on the archives. @Barney Grubbs I saw you rec. Angelmaker by Nick Harkaway and I wanted to add that I read it 3 years ago and it blew my mind, was so great (but, had one scene that gives me nightmares still.)
	5:47pm djsheilab: Hey Tome, Miss G, Robin in SF, iiibeat + Bryant in TO!
	♥ 5:47pm tim from washington: I love the sound of this Carrie Cleveland record.
	♥ 5:52pm Handy Haversack: I think I have read only The Gone-Away World from Harkaway. I'll keep an eye out for Angelmaker. Hi, Miss G! And many thanks, Sheila! Always so wonderful to get the weekend started right here. Stay Booming, all!
	5:52pm Pepe C.: Carrie Cleveland put me in a trance, love her
	5:53pm Miss G: HH, I think you will love the tone and semi-tongue in cheek hard-boiledness of Angelmaker. Y'all have a great weekend!
	♥ 5:53pm Tome: Hey Sheila lovin '; the Boom Boom as always,,, [][][]
	♥ 5:54pm Michael 98145: Thanks for another fine voyage, DJ Sheila 🎵
	♥ 5:54pm radioronan: Thank you, Sheila!
	5:54pm Jeff From Hoboken: Hi again Sheila B! My favorite SPY MOVIE is Mother Night, from the awesome Kurt Vonnegut novel. It's based on A real person, but Kurt Vonnegut changed the character a lot for his story. Thanks again, always love your show!
	5:55pm c2b3: heyyyy
	♥ 5:55pm tim from washington: Holly Golightly! Solid. Thanks for the fantastic show today, Sheila!!!!
	5:55pm Miss G: sigh as always, just a mo-mo of Sheila B's spinning takes a difficult day's woes away -- still feelin' it, but in a new way. . .💙
	5:55pm Rick A: I only knew the version of this song she did with The Greenhornes. I think I like that one better though this is great too. Thank you, Sheila, for another lush Friday afternoon of music.
	5:56pm Clo: Thank you for yet another great three hours, Sheila B. :)
