I missed the opener. Just got back from the Mr. Rogers movie. Weird watching it in a theater situated about two minutes from where Rogers lived. He's like a saint in Pittsburgh.

Doug: Is Eide's records still there? Did you know Stedeford's records on the North Side? Specialties: soul, R&B, jazz, blues, rock. Gone now.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:24pm
Franco Twinkie:

Not exactly marmalade, bur yesterday I made french toast topped with gauva sugar glop.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:26pm
Matt from New Orleans:

What is guava sugar glop Franco? Sounds like it would taste good even with the glop descriptor.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:26pm
Little Danny:

Dude I'm eating a piece of buttered toast with guava compote right now. Great minds!
  10:28pm
Dean:

I'm baking little balls of potato gratin, sauteeing spinach with garlic, and preparing to fry breaded pork chops. There is butter aplenty.

I saw Peter Allen opening for The Tubes in 1975. He wore a sparkly jacket and banged on a piano in an Elton John kind of fashion.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:29pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Larry the only Sugar Beats I found is a kids oriented band created by the daughter of Carole King and Gerry Goffin

Funky16Corners:

@Danny - Yeah, isn't this good?
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:30pm
Erica:

Steve Kipner AKA Knock the Walls Down? Wow Peter Allen and Steve Kipner, two future 'yacht rock' artists in one hour.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:30pm
Funky16Corners:

@Erica - Kipner wrote some other big songs for other people. None of them are coming to mind right now...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:31pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I’m well aware. I was completely unaware of her efforts as we never listened to much kids music when I was a kid.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:32pm
Funky16Corners:

@Danny - Didn't you write about these guys at some point?
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:32pm
Erica:

He also had a solo album in 1979 called (as mentioned above) Knock the Walls Down. If you like that late 70s early 80s soft rock/AOR sound, it's worth checking out.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:33pm
Franco Twinkie:

Okay Danny, if I was more articulate I would have gone with compote. Matt, my Cambodian neighbor gave me a big bag of guavas from his backyard. I ran them though a sieve, added sugar and lemon and cooked in a pot. Viola! Guava sugar glop.

nice Simon & Garfunkel cover, Cloudy.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:35pm
Little Danny:

You're really playing some of my dark sunshine pop faves tonight
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:35pm
Funky16Corners:

@Erica - Kipner wrote Physical for Olivia Newton John, A Hard Habit to Break for Chicago and Genie In a Bottle for Christina Aguilera!
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:36pm
Erica:

Honestly I feel more of a spring vibe rather than a winter vibe hearing this show. Maybe it's just me.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:37pm
Erica:

Yes Larry and those are awesome tunes. Hard Habit to Break was featured at reoccurring times in the sitcom "Yes Dear". Haha!
Avatar ♥ 10:37pm
TDK60:

Erica, it's the kind of music we can listen to here by the fire on a cold winter night, have some cheese fondue, then hot chocolate.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:38pm
Funky16Corners:

Mmmmm, now I want fondue...
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:38pm

For me, that's new age and smooth jazz TDK60.

Speaking of clowns Larry, ever thought of doing a show about songs titled or mentioning clowns?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:51pm
Matt from New Orleans:

When I read It in fifth grade, I didn’t sleep well for quite some time. I already was creeped out by clowns due to my aunt’s porcelain doll/clowns collection.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:51pm

That's an idea! I'll look into it.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:53pm

I once purposely destroyed a clown doll as a kid, thinking it was something else. I look back and wish that I hadn't done that but then again my mom is afraid of clowns.
Avatar ♥ 10:54pm

this has a Tim Buckley feel, coincidence?

I feel like clown-phobia is a fairly recent thing. The "creepy clown" wasn't a motif yet when I was a little kid. As far as I know.

Mimes are just silent, colorless clowns who do invisible tricks.

The electrocution fear came from seeing a clown zapping kids with a buzzer, whenever you shook his hand

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:11pm
Franco Twinkie:

Erica, when my sister and I were kids, my mom took us to see Bozo at a local shopping center. This must have been an new recruit in the Bozo franchise because he was a total prick who started slapping the kids who mobbed him when he was trying to blow up balloons. After that, my sister didn't want to marry Bozo anymore.

Also, around that time, there was a terrifying PSA on TV, that involved a sinister looking clown on a staircase.

Not if the invisible anvil breaks your box Danny. Also, Franco that's just mean. I'm surprised that Bozo (pun intended) didn't get in trouble for laying a hand on those kids.

I’ll see if I can find it when I’m up in NY in two week. If I find it, I’ll mail it to you.

Thanks Matt!

It’s also on YouTube if you get curious

Another gem that's brand new to me, this Patrick Sky. Talk about your unfortunate album covers, though.

Here for the home stretch, hi all!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:35pm
Funky16Corners:

@Danny - Yeah, if I hadn't already known of him I probably would have gone right past it
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:35pm
Funky16Corners:

Hey Doc!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:36pm
Little Danny:

Is the rest of the album THIS good? This is amazing
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:36pm
Funky16Corners:

Yes, with a few weird exceptions
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:38pm
Funky16Corners:

The opening track is a weird half-hearted attempt at a Lovin Spoonful thing and he also does a cool (but incongruous) version of Gilbert and Sullivan's 'Modern Major General'
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:39pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Is that tabla?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:39pm
Funky16Corners:

It is
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:40pm
Little Danny:

Old-timey Gilbert and Sullivan antics definitely killed some psych-pop and sunshine pop album sides back in the late '60s.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:41pm
Matt from New Orleans:

This is a solid cover
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:41pm
Funky16Corners:

He does it with a banjo. It's pretty cool.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:42pm
Funky16Corners:

@Matt - This is a cool album. Norman Whitfield production

Well, I did not expect Rare Earth, but I love it!

Dug Patrick Sky, somehow missed his work before.

Was half asleep, time to go fully asleep. Thanks Larry!

That Patrick Sky album is very available on Discogs, not expensive...

Erica:

Hiya Jeff!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:43pm
Funky16Corners:

I think you turned me on to this album, Jeff
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:43pm
Funky16Corners:

Hey NGH!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:44pm
Jeff Ash:

If so, great! I gotta get around to listening and writing about Rare Earth's debut album from 1968 on Verve, which I had never seen until I picked it up a while back.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:44pm
Funky16Corners:

I had no idea that album existed for years. I'm still looking for a copy
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:45pm
Matt from New Orleans:

This album apparently got released in Mozambique
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:46pm
Jeff Ash:

Ma is a record you don't often see, either.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:48pm
Matt from New Orleans:

It got released all over the world Jeff. I didn’t realize Rare Earth was so popular internationally

northguineahills:

Is Boudewijn de Groot, Flemish?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:49pm
Funky16Corners:

Dutch
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:50pm
Erica:

Close enough Larry.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:51pm
Funky16Corners:

Ah, turns out Flemish is a variant of Dutch, spoken in Flanders/Belgium
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:53pm
Little Danny:

Fantastic show tonight Larry. So vibe-y!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:54pm

Very laid back indeed Danny.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:55pm
