	3:22pm PT from Hoboken: Good afternoon SheilaB and everyone! Looking forward to when we reach critical mass of 70-80% vaccinated!
	3:22pm Russt44: Joan channeling Curtis Mayfield?
	3:22pm Richard S: Pro Tip: When you get your vax card, do NOT laminate it. It can smudge the ink, and you may still need it if it turns out a booster shot is called for some months down the line. Instead, make photocopies and laminate one of those, or get one of those ID / badge sleeves.....
	3:22pm P-90: Congrats on your jab appointment @Sheila!
	3:23pm HyperDose: @Carmichael I was just able to schedule my first for then
	3:23pm Carmichael: Jabbing Day, Hyper!
	3:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Richard S food for thot ! Fine Freya'sday SofistiCats !
	3:24pm djsheilab: Thanks P-90! Hey PT from Hoboken, Richard S + RR Nov63!
	3:25pm nathan: @Richard S thanks!! i was about to get mine laminated...
	3:25pm Passaic River Blues: That is indeed a pro-tip--thank you!
	3:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Really heartening to hear about so many good people getting the protection of the vaxx - & helping prevent the spread too.
	3:28pm Russt44: Love the Pre Raphaelite Yokota cover.
	3:28pm Yes: Beautiful sounds
	3:29pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: My son's grade 4 class was shut down this week, and we went for his test yesterday morning. Result: negative (thank God).
	3:31pm still b/p: Waiting for call in vac site parking lot for first shot as directed, but now it's past my assigned time slot and noooo one is calling me to sing "walk right in, sit right down , brother let your arm get poked!"
	3:31pm listener 126464: Friday cheers everybody!
	3:32pm Keith the mothslayer: you are killin it today Ms. B
	3:32pm Phillippe Bastille: Nice Jocelyn! Have you had to go to the two-volume passport yet?
	3:33pm djsheilab: Thanks Keith the mothslayer! Hey listener 126464, still b/p + Geoffrey in Ottawa!
	3:34pm Phillippe Bastille: My superspreader niece tested positive for Covid about two weeks ago. 16 people in her circle have tested positive since.
	3:36pm PaulRobeson1920: Good afternoon, WFMU land! Sounding lovely djsheilab!!
	3:37pm Dave In Leicester: Happy Friday everyone
	3:38pm Jocelyn: Philippe, I have. How is everything your way?
	3:38pm covid16: Not vaxxing and not apologetic about it. Good luck, guinea pigs
	3:38pm The Oscar: Afternoon all! I just got my first shot scheduled for Monday, and I am profoundly stoked :)
	3:38pm Jocelyn: First shot was good, second one made me sick for a few days.
	3:38pm PaulRobeson1920: The best Friday is when WFMU is on
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: still b/p bummer ! Should be better coordinated. djsheilab I don't like needles - but it was nothing as far as the needle poke itself goes. I think they got the truly small needles down now.
	3:39pm BH: anyways, the actual time it takes for the shot really isn't long either, so I was free to look the other direction and tap my fingers for a moment. The "waiting room" for people post-shot was going with the top hits of the 80s. Debbie Gibson. "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" by Starship. And "Beds are Burning" by Midnight Oil
	3:39pm TheoC: Ugg! I have super spreader nieces as well... Twins, 22 years old and store crazy... I stay far away from my family
	3:39pm Phillippe Bastille: all good here, Jocelyn. 1st shot down, 2nd next week. weather is warming up (today not included) and everything is better when its warm.
	3:39pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello! I'm up for a sophisticated weekend. Got my first shot last Saturday! 💉
	3:41pm Passaic River Blues: FYI New Jerseyan FMUers, the mass vax center that opened this week at the NJIT campus in Newark will be accepting no-reservation, WALK-INs until 6:00 p.m. today and all through the weekend! www.roi-nj.com...
	3:41pm Travisano66: YES, SHEILA! THAT WAS ONE OF THE BEST EPISODES! Loved it.
	3:41pm Avrilinmay: Ok. Now I found something to like about the vaccination appointments talk : the playlist at the vaccination centers! More of it ! :D
	3:41pm HyperDose: Improv Everywhere is amazing. Pirates in the park, Ghostbusters in the library, talk show on the subway. Absolute genius.
	3:41pm matt: improv everywhere can, excuse my french, eat shit
	3:42pm Passaic River Blues: I would be over there right now but I already I got my first shot at St. Michael's.
	3:42pm ackthpfft: Yes!!! Saw that episode! Heartbreaking...
	3:42pm BH: not sure what would be the worst band which at least one top 40 radio hit to play in a Covid recovery area
	3:42pm Travisano66: It came up because it was April Fools Day yesterday.
	3:42pm djsheilab: Here's a link to the episode: www.thisamericanlife.org... Ghosts
	3:43pm ackthpfft: [ Insert saying about roads to hell and best intent ]
	3:43pm djsheilab: Travisano66—That must've been it!
	3:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yes bring your headphones or knitting whatever for your 15 min. post-jab wait (to monitor for allergic reactions & the like).
	3:44pm Cooh John: 🙋‍♂️DjLorraine. How is it we posted in sequence?
	3:44pm Jett: I hope you and Alvy Singer are well on this windy cold day @DjSheilaB I'm enjoying the show, you've also managed to make me an even bigger Joan As Police Woman fan than I already was. Once again, you having a major influence on me.
	3:46pm Jett: Hey there, my friend @DjLorraine. I hope you are doing great!
	3:46pm The Oscar: I had actually been under the impression that I wasn't yet eligible in my state, but I suddenly learned that I'm technically part of the supply chain: for my day job I work for a company that makes training materials for pharma companies, and one of our clients is Moderna. I didn't think I'd be able to get stuck for weeks, but it wound up just taking a 5-minute phone call to set one up for next week!
	3:46pm djsheilab: BH—I love all of those songs :) I was just talking to Joe McG about how brilliant a song "Beds Are Burning" is.
	3:46pm Cooh John: Lovin' the Linda. Rummaging through my record collection, Sheila?
	3:47pm Monica: expert segue there, m'dear.
	3:48pm djsheilab: Thanks Monica :)
	3:48pm ackthpfft: I'm officially overweight after this year of enforced hibernation. But it got me bumped up in the queue in my state, & I got my first jab 10 days ago. Weird innit?
	3:48pm TheoC: This is amazing, Lucy Dacus
	3:49pm Andrew James: Ugh. Saw Lucy Daucus play in San Diego back in nov 2018 and she opened with this. The lyrics just gutted me. Been waiting for her to release it since and this didn't disappoint. Such a great pull, Rabbi Sheila
	3:49pm djsheilab: Andrew James—My god, I can't imagine seeing this live. It's devastating.
	3:50pm P-90: SO soulful
	3:52pm Andrew James: She came out and played it alone on an electric guitar. This is such a great version, I love the keys, but I wish I had that raw performance. It really bowled me over (only having known a few songs off her record before hand)
	3:52pm headcleaner: you did it, Sheila - you got me to put it on my list to give This American Life a listen for the first time in probably 17 years
	3:52pm djsheilab: Hello to those of you just checking in—ackthpfft, The Oscar, matt, Avrilinmay, Ken from Hyde Park, PaulRobeson1920 + Dave In Leicester!
	3:52pm Kevin-san: Good job with the dump button, DJSB
	3:53pm Andrew James: OH MY GOD. It was a boy genius show. She opened, Phoebe Bridgers followed, then Julien Baker did a set and then they al came out and played together, which was like a goofy catharsis after a night of heaviness. I love them so much haha
	3:53pm djsheilab: headcleaner—Haha! I haven't listened in years either. But this is QUITE an episode.
	3:53pm Passaic River Blues: Wow, never heard this United States of America cover!
	3:54pm djsheilab: Passaic River Blues—I didn't know this is a cover!
	3:54pm Guido from Cologne: Nice take on United States Of America song
	3:54pm djsheilab: Andrew James—Dream gig!
	3:55pm Andrew James: Sorry for my excitement, totally forgot about the entire lineup, was mono-fixated on that Daucus performance haha
	3:55pm Guido from Cologne: This is the original: www.discogs.com... @sheila you need it! It's legendary and groundbreaking!
	3:55pm Passaic River Blues: @Sheila: I think you should definitely investigate; USoA was a major influence for Broadcast. www.discogs.com...
	3:56pm headcleaner: as to my first Pfizer jab: went very smoothly and quickly (this was at an NYC HHC, that is, a regular city hospital), with no noticeable side effects (whereas regular flu shots usually make me feel half-sick for a day or two)
	3:56pm HyperDose: @Andrew Julien Baker is killer. Always hits the spot for me.
	3:56pm djsheilab: I shall investigate Guido from Cologne + Passaic River Blues!
	3:57pm ackthpfft: @headcleaner: same here. I felt a little tired afterwards, but one middle-aged dad nap later I was AOK.
	3:57pm Dave In Leicester: Northern Picture Library were on Sarah Records one of my favourite ever labels
	3:58pm headcleaner: This American Life was always a great show, of course. Just that I can't stand to listen to the stations it usually plays on 99 percent of the rest of the time they're on
	3:58pm Andrew James: @Hyper she's so great. I've gotten to see her three times now and she always delivers.
	4:00pm Russt44: Love this Zsela record. Dark
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: United States of America - a great Psychedelic album - without Guitar !
	4:00pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: Hello from breezy Maryland!
	4:01pm Ryansterlingvirtue: asobi seksu. Forgotten band. amazing.
	4:02pm Guido from Cologne: ... without guitar with female vocals and great satire about American society
	4:02pm Andrew James: Asobi Seksu?! Sheila... the pulls today are just ace. Another great band I got to see way back in... 2007
	4:02pm Ryansterlingvirtue: I think I saw them circa 2004 or something
	4:03pm Passaic River Blues: @Andrew James: same. Remember seeing a friend's band open for Asobi Seksu and then having the odd experience of attending a wedding where the drummer was also a guest (all of this ~15 years ago).
	4:04pm Ryansterlingvirtue: the shoegaze doesn't let up!
	4:04pm Andrew James: Loveless?! ::face melts::
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: MBV otoh - Monster Gittar...
	4:05pm misterdavid: j'adore this record MBV 4 ever
	4:05pm ackthpfft: More MBV please!
	4:05pm The Oscar: Ooooooh nice.
	4:05pm bukowski.: <3 <3 <3
	4:06pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: next we'll need some Pains of Being Pure at Heart to bring it back to the late 00s
	4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love stories of how seismically loud MBV were Live.
	4:06pm HyperDose: @Andrew I'd be in awe too! I get my live fix through sets on Audiotree and KEPX. I can't wait to see live music in-person again.
	4:06pm TheoC: My Bloody Valentine!
	4:06pm ackthpfft: Wow. I type it here, it comes out there. Thanks Sheila B!
	4:06pm Guido from Cologne: You changed the sequence on MBV, interesting
	4:06pm Rick A: It's a classic. MBV was a crucial part of my 90s experience though I never saw them live sadly, maybe once the pandemic is over,s omething to hope for!
	4:06pm Phillippe Bastille: How can this be 30 years old?
	4:08pm Toutevoix: ((((((◍))))))
	4:08pm Rick A: To think that for young people today, the 90s is for them what the 50s was for me and yet, I see more continuity between the 90s and today, then the 50s and the 80s.
	4:08pm B R M: They just re-issued m b v , LOVELESS, and ISN'T ANYTHING and got them on streaming outside the uSa, but I want YOUR BLOODY VALENTINE--> ECSTASY on vinyl with all of the EPs, too (which are CD only)... gimme that in a box please!
	4:08pm Dayffid: dont think I could ever get tired of hearing this song
	4:09pm Guido from Cologne: One of the few bands that didn't accept applause and instead threw the audience out of the hall with nice . (Legendary Loveless-tour 1992)
	4:09pm ackthpfft: @Dayffid: I KNOW I couldn't.
	4:10pm Justin B.: Call me crazy, but Isn't Anything is the best for me
	4:11pm P-90: “...PLUS Superchunk and Pavement!”
	4:11pm B R M: @sheilab I was at that tour as well, in Detroit, with Buffalo Tom and Yo La Tengo. @JustinB. - me too! and it is just an absolutely dirty record on the DL
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kevin Shields interview on cutting an Analog version of 'Loveless', hearing loss & the nature of hearing generally : www.npr.org...
	4:12pm Cecile: It's a great album, even though i experienced it well after the fact. Also, their comeback album was excellent.
	4:13pm Robm: Hello fellow female music listeners
	4:14pm WFMU listener WADE: saw M B V in1991 in Chapel Hill opening up for Dinosaur Jr. Green Mind tour.
	4:14pm Barney Grubbs: @BRM - saw the same line up in SF. now my 14-yr old kid is jealous (but her hearing is probably going to be much better when she's my age)
	4:14pm djsheilab: Justin B.—Absolutely crazy!
	4:14pm headcleaner: Huh. "That album" for me, at exactly that age, was Gang of Four's _Entertainment_.
	4:15pm Jett: I love Barbara Lewis, but Big Joe Henderson owns "Snap Your Fingers."
	4:15pm Cecile: This has such a Chicago Soul feel
	4:15pm Ike: @BRM, totally missed that — did YLT crank it up for that tour at all? Hard for me to imagine them operating in that kind of wheelhouse but “I Can Hear...” does fit in w/that....
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cecile Hullo ! (btw)
	4:16pm WM: Shelia: Interesting... how did you go from a MBV fan to a connoisseur of girl pop? Sheer volume, hypnotic beat, instrumental over vocals…. I would expect your early musical instincts to lead you in a very different direction. What happened? (Of course, it all turned out for the best after all.)
	4:16pm B R M: @Ike- yes it was rocking Yo La Tengo for sure.
	4:16pm Justin B.: To each their own :) Also has any band taken a 20+year hiatus and come out with an album as good and fitting right into their catalog as m b v? I don't know of any
	4:17pm Rick A: Call me even crazier, however, I didn't care for the comeback album, too much undifferentiated sound. The genius of Loveless, and to a lesser extent Isn't Anything, is their use of melody as a way to organize the chaotic noise; it's an interplay of chaos and song structure. "Soon" is an irresistibly danceable song.
	4:18pm Cecile: Hello, Rev. I thought that mission of burma were pretty strong after a long break, as were Wire, but I understand- they are the exception, not the rule.
	4:18pm Jett: I agree 100 per cent with everything you said about My Bloody Valentine. @DjSheilaB
	4:20pm Cecile: Elis!
	4:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Rick A nicely articulated.
	4:20pm Justin B.: oh yeah @cecile, good examples!
	4:20pm Will in Norman: my headphoned ears are loving the hard panning in this track
	4:21pm djsheilab: I've never listened to MBV's comeback album. I guess I feel too protective over my feelings for Loveless. Sounds ridiculous, I know.
	4:21pm Cecile: I liked it. But I didn't have a lot invested in it. YMMV.
	4:21pm Gurldoggie: @Justin B I'm gonna say the last Gil Scott Heron album was as strong as anything else he made, 18 years after his previous record.
	4:22pm Gurldoggie: Admittedly not a band, but still.
	4:22pm PaulRobeson1920: Alcohol is a powerful drug. Rest in Peace, Gil Scott Heron
	4:23pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: This song is way too smooth!
	4:23pm djsheilab: Hey Cecile, Will in Norman, B R M, Barney Grubbs, WFMU listener WADE, Dayffid + Robm!
	4:23pm Cecile: hello!
	4:23pm nathan: groovin' to this one
	4:23pm djsheilab: Hello EarlyMorningInSeoul! Super smooooooth.
	4:23pm Will in Norman: good to be here on another great friday!
	4:24pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: Like buttah!
	4:24pm The Oscar: If anyone here hasn't heard it, you should probably seek out Shonen Knife's cover of "When You Sleep"-- this would seem to be the audience for it :)
	4:24pm djsheilab: The Oscar—Oh I'd LOVE to hear that!
	4:24pm Dayffid: Hey Sheila! Amazing show today, as always!
	4:25pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: @The Oscar, thanks for the rec! I also recommend this old WFMU blog post with kids covering MBV from 10 years ago! blog.wfmu.org... The "When You Sleep" cover here is one of my favs too
	4:25pm The Oscar: For bookmarking purposes! soundcloud.com...
	4:26pm PaulRobeson1920: Happy Belated BirThDAY! Gil Scott Heron!!! April 1st, 1949
	4:27pm ncjay: I bought this Chocolat CD in 2001 because of a positive review in ... Cha Cha Charming!
	4:27pm Dayffid: I love how much new music you play Shiela. Because its really the only place I hear it. And it's comforting to know that so much good stuff is still being released.
	4:27pm ncjay: I think it was there, anyway!
	4:27pm -o-l-i-v-i-e-r-: mmmh... chocolat...
	4:28pm Cecile: Stumbled across a great laid-back K-R&B song called Wave that might be up your alley. It's by Yubin. I've also been digging Bibi's stuff, it's KHip-hop/R&B
	4:31pm northguineahills: Damn, slept through Northern Picture Library and MBV (slept in my suit after my MS Teams interview(=).
	4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dayffid word !
	4:32pm Ike: ...there’s a link in the melodies, yeah?
	4:33pm nathan: you're also allowed to just have eclectic taste
	4:34pm Robm: @Shelia you sure bring it every week
	4:34pm headcleaner: hang in there, @ngh - one day what you're going through now will be long past you, like a bad dream
	4:35pm Cheek!: First note- oh I see why this is single of the week
	4:35pm djsheilab: Thanks Robm!
	4:35pm djsheilab: Cheek!—Haha! Right?!
	4:36pm Dayffid: this is a perfect example. I would probably never hear this otherwise.
	4:36pm Robm: shelia your welcome
	4:37pm Cecile: wow this took a turn.
	4:37pm Cecile: did not expect that.
	4:38pm djsheilab: Cecile—Ultra-bouncy to super intense!
	4:39pm flashback: hi everybody/ it`s been a while since i listened to wfmu
	4:39pm Cecile: I know. It's like the first part was keeping the studio warm for the last part.
	4:39pm djsheilab: flashback—Welcome back!
	4:39pm Cecile: Valaida Snow!
	4:39pm alan the painter: Hi, just waking after a nap. great to wake with your choices on the streaming radio. Please check my friends, pianist; Chris Davis, voice Fay Victor, saxophonist Ingrid Laubach, ah there are so many...
	4:40pm flashback: time for coffee and friday afternoon music
	4:40pm djsheilab: Hey alan the painter!
	4:41pm Jocelyn: NGH, I hope everything is okay
	4:42pm McGroovey: Valaida Snow : never heard of her, and I should have. My dad was a jazz musician and fan, with a huge collection of stuff from this era, and yet I've never heard of her. How? Great stuff.
	4:42pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: So what are some of the must get albums on this Bandcamp Friday? Any cool compilations?
	4:43pm McGroovey: www.nytimes.com...
	4:43pm Mr. Pumpy: @djsheilab...just jumped in on the ride home from the listening party in the Rutt's Hut parking lot with Joe Belock. Todd was kicking it as well, but I think a Lion's day of March, escaping into April held many people at home. Just the same, we had a good crowd and a ride home with Sophisticated Boom Boom put the cherry on top! Handy and Kate are on their way back to Brooklyn. Fun was had. WoofMoo community!
	4:44pm Mr. Pumpy: I can't believe that Maye track is self released...it is stellar! Thanks for all you do, Sheila!
	4:45pm djsheilab: Mr. Pumpy—So happy you love it!
	4:46pm Susan & Bryan: thank you Sheila B for the always healing and moving tunes. You rock so hard.
	4:46pm PaulRobeson1920: It’s all new music to me! @McGroovey I know that feeling!
	4:47pm Rick G: I cluelessly saw the artist listing and thought “wait, Sheila is playing Johnny Thunders?!” Oops
	4:47pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey Mr. P! Hope all is well!
	4:48pm Guido from Cologne: Laura!
	4:48pm cal: Love Laura Nyro. She does it for me!
	4:48pm ncjay: Laura's best song ever
	4:48pm Jett: I ❤️ Laura Nyro - TOTAL GENIUS
	4:48pm djsheilab: This song is PURE EUPHORIA! Love seeing the love for Laura!
	4:49pm ncjay: this goes very well with Todd Rundgren's "Baby Let's Swing" (about Laura, and in her style)
	4:49pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: This is so crazy to hear this song now. I was watching an episode of Gilmore Girls last night and this was the wedding song of Lorelai's parents!
	4:49pm ncjay: gotta have the full version though, not the janky medley on the "official" version of the Runt album
	4:49pm Rick A: Laura Nyro's voice and the production on these first two albums has a great feeling of free and ebullient improvisation. She was such a great songwriter too.
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Srsly what a track.
	4:50pm alan the painter: Oh, please check oUt reutregev.com..., an incredible band leader and trombonist!
	4:51pm WM: There were three sisters who used to sing this LN song to me every New Years Eve. (Yes, my name is Bill.) They did it for four of five years running until they retired the tradition.
	4:51pm The Oscar: Both Todd and Joni Mitchell have both admitted they modeled their vocal styles on Laura Nyro, which is one of those things that makes zero sense if you haven't heard her, but completely clicks if you have.
	4:51pm Frank Zaatar: What can we do to get the world to recognize what a genius Laura Nyro was?
	4:51pm tim from champaign (now washington): Sheila - Are you telling us that you're getting married but are having second thoughts?. I'm seeing a trend here.
	4:52pm cal: I was so sad when Laura died. She died too young!
	4:52pm WM: "four or five years"
	4:54pm alan the painter: Oh SeilaB, thank you for playfully playing!!!
	4:54pm PaulRobeson1920: The genius Laura Nyro is*
	4:54pm northguineahills: @Jocelyn y headcleaner: Filled out three more applications, and have three other interviews as well.
	4:55pm wizard frog: who on earth would steal a wedding bell? a usurper!
	4:55pm Gurldoggie: "...There's got to be somebody! Because what if I'm 60 years old and not married, all alone in a furnished room with pee stains on my underwear and everybody else is married! All the universe married but me!"
	4:55pm Cecile: A vote for Laura Nyro here.
	4:56pm Mr. Pumpy: Phillipe...yo!
	4:56pm Cecile: The heartbreakers actually sounded more like a boy group, in terms of the belting
	4:57pm Cecile: we've told people not to marry people, but not at the ceremony...
	4:57pm dave: What? Someone stole you away? I’m so sad
	4:58pm PaulRobeson1920: Go get that package!!!
	4:58pm Jett: ...but will you ever marry again? @DjSheilaB
	4:58pm PaulRobeson1920: Haha or not! Hopefully it will still be there later
	4:58pm Justin B.: That's exactly how I explain my marriage experience, it was great until it wasn't, and that's that, life is long and always chance for a new phase
	4:59pm northguineahills: I was w/ my partner for four years until I proposed. It took another 3 years until one day just went, fuck it, let's go to City Hall today!
	4:59pm Monica: it's ok to answer your door during a mic break! what if it's a special delivery?
	5:00pm Mr. Pumpy: Monica...what is a special delivery?
	5:00pm common: Sheila b., all! Happy friday!
	5:01pm herb.nyc: Sheila B is getting married? And she’s mulling her decision? Well then it behooves her to meet every single male on this comment board first! (I started singing “wedding bell blues” to a bill once, when he showed up at our office.)
	5:03pm northguineahills: Frankie's on Fulton in Ft Greeene, had late night crusty old blues players, and the food was amazing!
	5:03pm tim from champaign (now washington): I love long songs! Go Sheila!
	5:04pm Monica: Mr. Pumpy - but if I told you it would no longer be special, now would it:)
	5:04pm djsheilab: My groom has been delivered!
	5:04pm Frank Zaatar: Listen to Laura sing "red yellow honey sassafras and moonshine" (one of the greatest lines in popular musc) and nobody should have any doubts about her singing.
	5:05pm Russt44: L'Rain is so interesting. Great production
	5:06pm tim from champaign (now washington): Mail order groom. Hooray!
	5:06pm djsheilab: Russt44—Supposedly she's fantastic live!
	5:06pm pgalub: So THAT'S what the package was. (Hi Sheila!)
	5:06pm wizard frog: haha - I hope they poked holes in the box
	5:08pm nathan: based on the profile picture, I'm assuming Sheila was married to Ozzy Osbourne at some point
	5:08pm RB: Congratulations!
	5:09pm djsheilab: Hey pgalub, Frank Zaatar, tim from champaign (now washington) + wizard frog!
	5:09pm Guido from Cologne: Tons of clicky stars tonight
	5:10pm djsheilab: Afternoon herb.nyc, common + northguineahills!
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This Orielles has a Nyro-esque echo ...if you listen to it soon enuff after her. :)
	5:10pm Cecile: These last two songs have a really 70s euro-prog feel to them.
	5:11pm Justin B.: Congrats to you and Waldo Jeffers!
	5:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Justin B but has she got big shears ??
	5:11pm flashback: bye all. i`m still listening but am not in chat.
	5:12pm HyperDose: @Guido My clicky finger isn't as strong as it used to be, so I find myself favoriting the entire show more and more these days.
	5:12pm Doug in JC: Good afternoon... thank you for the excellent soundtrack for cooking dinner
	5:12pm Mr. Pumpy: Monica...Umm...I guess not? If special is being no one knows but you, or only certain people know, then no. It would not be. Well, I hope it's good, as I would hope for anyone receiving a special delivery. Or a speedy delivery, as per Mr. McFeely on Mr. Rodgers. Damn, that name did not age well, I just realized.
	5:12pm djsheilab: Ugh...I'm playing the wrong, crappy sounding version of this. Ah well.
	5:12pm Cecile: oh, this was huge in the early 80s on Lower Michigan underground radio.
	5:12pm patrick321: This was a real moment in time.
	5:12pm listener 126464: PIX Penthouse Party!
	5:13pm Justin B.: @Rev I could picture it!
	5:13pm Guido from Cologne: I had an ear-worm of Aie A Mwana today, but of the sill German lyrics version which became popular at the time of the original
	5:14pm Guido from Cologne: ... silly German lyrics ...
	5:14pm Jett: When "Aie A Mwana" was first released the 12 inch was constantly on my turntable, really loved it. Still holds up quite well!
	5:16pm Will in Norman: this is one of the better south asian disco tracks i've heard
	5:16pm djsheilab: Doug in JC—My pleasure!
	5:20pm Jocelyn: I’d get married!
	5:21pm Monica: @mr. pumpy - only her hairdresser knows for sure. and if you're old enough to remember that slogan then you up there like me:)
	5:25pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Sheila, everyone! We are back from the Rock and Soul Stream Party in the Rutt's Hut parking lot. Apparently, it takes the same amount of time to drive from Clifton, NJ, to Greenpoint, BK, as it does to find a parking spot once you get back.
	5:25pm Gurldoggie: Going out for some sunshine and fresh air while we've got some here in Seattle, gonna miss the last 1/2 hour. But want to say thanks for another great show. See you in the archives!
	5:25pm DjLorraine: Open the door for your mystery date
	5:26pm djsheilab: Handy Haversack—Must've been a treat to see everyone after so long!
	5:27pm djsheilab: Gurldoggie—Make sure you listen to this one in the archives—Lost Girls "Love, Lovers."
	5:27pm Doug in JC: Thanks for visiting our fine state, Handy
	5:29pm Handy Haversack: Sheila, t was a treat and a half -- Mr. Pumpy and I play 1.5 games a week together with video conference and had never met in person! queems was there, and Doug in JC and Joe B and Todd -- it was without a doubt the best party I have been to in more than a year!
	5:29pm rx scabin: This as the soundtrack to The Bandwagon: perfection.
	5:32pm B R M: Grabbed three albums on Bandcamp Froday today, including the Steady Holiday album I first heard on SOPHISTICATED BOOM BOOM, as well as the Oh-Ok "Complete Reissue", which is a treat. If you want to feel a sense of connection and encouragement, visit the Bandcamp homepage and watch the albums on SELLING RIGHT NOW sell in real time, around the world. Very heartening.
	5:33pm Handy Haversack: I'm going to pour some drinks, and then we're diving into Bandcamp Friday over here!
	5:33pm B R M: @Handy lemme know what you pick up!
	5:34pm Andres: Hey, Sheila! Chiming in late. Loving “Love, Lovers”!
	5:35pm djsheilab: Yes! Thank you, Andres! I am in complete AWE of this track.

This song is over ten minutes lonmg which means you can purchase only as entire album for which I will because this song is HEAVEN :) thank you Chris in Philly
	5:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yup working over several minutes awlright.
	5:39pm common: Nice
	5:40pm Andres: Epic!!!
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Riding what changes come up for that long - like a champion surfer! No feeling like it.
	5:42pm Jett: You're in my prayers @DjLorraine 🙏❤️
	5:43pm Michael 98145: Stepping over to the typewriter to say thank you
	5:44pm Handy Haversack: Will do, B R M!
	5:44pm Justin B.: Oy this is good, love Nicole Atkins. And the Fleetwoods for that matter!

	5:52pm P-90: Awesome segue to Norah!
	5:52pm Rick from SC: I feel like I'm being lulled, in order to accentuate the upcoming chaos.

	5:54pm Rick from SC: Great closer
	5:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TopangaTom - mix of Vintage & New yes ! ...Seems likely enuff - but how many Presenters really weave that fabric ? If anything I think they tend to go set by set...

	3:16pm Gurldoggie: Are you still at home Sheila? Or back in Studio A?
	3:17pm Cooh John: Hello Sheila and sophisticates. Heeding the sublime siren.
	3:17pm DjLorraine: The good news is the Physical Therapy gave me extra time! But i will go to archives later to hear what i missed. I promise.
	3:18pm P-90: Brava, Natalia! Incredible.
	3:18pm Fox: What a perfect overcast afternoon vibe, today.
	3:19pm djsheilab: HyperDose—So glad it's moving you. Hey Cooh John, DJLorraine, + Fox!
	3:19pm loveless: A lazy afternoon, indeed. Hello all.
	3:19pm Ryansterlingvirtue: this song is giving major feels. Hi, Sheila!
	3:19pm cal: Happy Friday, Sheila and Boomers. So glad yo be here today!!! Good luck with your vac shot on April 13. Hopefully it will give you some relief.
	3:19pm djsheilab: Gurldoggie—Still at home. I don't have my first shot until 4/13.
	3:20pm djsheilab: Ryansterlingvirtue—I feel you!
	3:20pm djsheilab: Happy Friday cal! Hey loveless!
	3:21pm Carmichael: I get my 2nd jab on 4/8. Can't wait!
	3:21pm TheoC: I'm lucky, second shot tomorrow...
	3:21pm Jocelyn: Hi Phillippe! I am now. Back from Bahrain last week. Staying home for a while.
	3:22pm PT from Hoboken: Good afternoon SheilaB and everyone! Looking forward to when we reach critical mass of 70-80% vaccinated!
	3:22pm Russt44: Joan channeling Curtis Mayfield?
	3:22pm Richard S: Pro Tip: When you get your vax card, do NOT laminate it. It can smudge the ink, and you may still need it if it turns out a booster shot is called for some months down the line. Instead, make photocopies and laminate one of those, or get one of those ID / badge sleeves.....
	3:22pm P-90: Congrats on your jab appointment @Sheila!
	3:23pm HyperDose: @Carmichael I was just able to schedule my first for then
	3:23pm Carmichael: Jabbing Day, Hyper!
	3:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Richard S food for thot ! Fine Freya'sday SofistiCats !
	3:24pm djsheilab: Thanks P-90! Hey PT from Hoboken, Richard S + RR Nov63!
	3:25pm nathan: @Richard S thanks!! i was about to get mine laminated...
	3:25pm Passaic River Blues: That is indeed a pro-tip--thank you!
	3:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Really heartening to hear about so many good people getting the protection of the vaxx - & helping prevent the spread too.
	3:28pm Russt44: Love the Pre Raphaelite Yokota cover.
	3:28pm Yes: Beautiful sounds
	3:29pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: My son's grade 4 class was shut down this week, and we went for his test yesterday morning. Result: negative (thank God).
	3:31pm still b/p: Waiting for call in vac site parking lot for first shot as directed, but now it's past my assigned time slot and noooo one is calling me to sing "walk right in, sit right down , brother let your arm get poked!"
	3:31pm listener 126464: Friday cheers everybody!
	3:32pm Keith the mothslayer: you are killin it today Ms. B
	3:32pm Phillippe Bastille: Nice Jocelyn! Have you had to go to the two-volume passport yet?
	3:33pm djsheilab: Thanks Keith the mothslayer! Hey listener 126464, still b/p + Geoffrey in Ottawa!
	3:34pm Phillippe Bastille: My superspreader niece tested positive for Covid about two weeks ago. 16 people in her circle have tested positive since.
	3:36pm PaulRobeson1920: Good afternoon, WFMU land! Sounding lovely djsheilab!!
	3:37pm Dave In Leicester: Happy Friday everyone
	3:38pm Jocelyn: Philippe, I have. How is everything your way?
	3:38pm covid16: Not vaxxing and not apologetic about it. Good luck, guinea pigs
	3:38pm The Oscar: Afternoon all! I just got my first shot scheduled for Monday, and I am profoundly stoked :)
	3:38pm Jocelyn: First shot was good, second one made me sick for a few days.
	3:38pm PaulRobeson1920: The best Friday is when WFMU is on
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: still b/p bummer ! Should be better coordinated. djsheilab I don't like needles - but it was nothing as far as the needle poke itself goes. I think they got the truly small needles down now.
	3:39pm BH: anyways, the actual time it takes for the shot really isn't long either, so I was free to look the other direction and tap my fingers for a moment. The "waiting room" for people post-shot was going with the top hits of the 80s. Debbie Gibson. "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" by Starship. And "Beds are Burning" by Midnight Oil
	3:39pm TheoC: Ugg! I have super spreader nieces as well... Twins, 22 years old and store crazy... I stay far away from my family
	3:39pm Phillippe Bastille: all good here, Jocelyn. 1st shot down, 2nd next week. weather is warming up (today not included) and everything is better when its warm.
	3:39pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello! I'm up for a sophisticated weekend. Got my first shot last Saturday! 💉
	3:41pm Passaic River Blues: FYI New Jerseyan FMUers, the mass vax center that opened this week at the NJIT campus in Newark will be accepting no-reservation, WALK-INs until 6:00 p.m. today and all through the weekend! www.roi-nj.com...
	3:41pm Travisano66: YES, SHEILA! THAT WAS ONE OF THE BEST EPISODES! Loved it.
	3:41pm Avrilinmay: Ok. Now I found something to like about the vaccination appointments talk : the playlist at the vaccination centers! More of it ! :D
	3:41pm HyperDose: Improv Everywhere is amazing. Pirates in the park, Ghostbusters in the library, talk show on the subway. Absolute genius.
	3:41pm matt: improv everywhere can, excuse my french, eat shit
	3:42pm Passaic River Blues: I would be over there right now but I already I got my first shot at St. Michael's.
	3:42pm ackthpfft: Yes!!! Saw that episode! Heartbreaking...
	3:42pm BH: not sure what would be the worst band which at least one top 40 radio hit to play in a Covid recovery area
	3:42pm Travisano66: It came up because it was April Fools Day yesterday.
	3:42pm djsheilab: Here's a link to the episode: www.thisamericanlife.org... Ghosts
	3:43pm ackthpfft: [ Insert saying about roads to hell and best intent ]
	3:43pm djsheilab: Travisano66—That must've been it!
	3:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yes bring your headphones or knitting whatever for your 15 min. post-jab wait (to monitor for allergic reactions & the like).
	3:44pm Cooh John: 🙋‍♂️DjLorraine. How is it we posted in sequence?
	3:44pm Jett: I hope you and Alvy Singer are well on this windy cold day @DjSheilaB I'm enjoying the show, you've also managed to make me an even bigger Joan As Police Woman fan than I already was. Once again, you having a major influence on me.
	3:46pm Jett: Hey there, my friend @DjLorraine. I hope you are doing great!
	3:46pm The Oscar: I had actually been under the impression that I wasn't yet eligible in my state, but I suddenly learned that I'm technically part of the supply chain: for my day job I work for a company that makes training materials for pharma companies, and one of our clients is Moderna. I didn't think I'd be able to get stuck for weeks, but it wound up just taking a 5-minute phone call to set one up for next week!
	3:46pm djsheilab: BH—I love all of those songs :) I was just talking to Joe McG about how brilliant a song "Beds Are Burning" is.
	3:46pm Cooh John: Lovin' the Linda. Rummaging through my record collection, Sheila?
	3:47pm Monica: expert segue there, m'dear.
	3:48pm djsheilab: Thanks Monica :)
	3:48pm ackthpfft: I'm officially overweight after this year of enforced hibernation. But it got me bumped up in the queue in my state, & I got my first jab 10 days ago. Weird innit?
	3:48pm TheoC: This is amazing, Lucy Dacus
	3:49pm Andrew James: Ugh. Saw Lucy Daucus play in San Diego back in nov 2018 and she opened with this. The lyrics just gutted me. Been waiting for her to release it since and this didn't disappoint. Such a great pull, Rabbi Sheila
	3:49pm djsheilab: Andrew James—My god, I can't imagine seeing this live. It's devastating.
	3:50pm P-90: SO soulful
	3:52pm Andrew James: She came out and played it alone on an electric guitar. This is such a great version, I love the keys, but I wish I had that raw performance. It really bowled me over (only having known a few songs off her record before hand)
	3:52pm headcleaner: you did it, Sheila - you got me to put it on my list to give This American Life a listen for the first time in probably 17 years
	3:52pm djsheilab: Hello to those of you just checking in—ackthpfft, The Oscar, matt, Avrilinmay, Ken from Hyde Park, PaulRobeson1920 + Dave In Leicester!
	3:52pm Kevin-san: Good job with the dump button, DJSB
	3:53pm Andrew James: OH MY GOD. It was a boy genius show. She opened, Phoebe Bridgers followed, then Julien Baker did a set and then they al came out and played together, which was like a goofy catharsis after a night of heaviness. I love them so much haha
	3:53pm djsheilab: headcleaner—Haha! I haven't listened in years either. But this is QUITE an episode.
	3:53pm Passaic River Blues: Wow, never heard this United States of America cover!
	3:54pm djsheilab: Passaic River Blues—I didn't know this is a cover!
	3:54pm Guido from Cologne: Nice take on United States Of America song
	3:54pm djsheilab: Andrew James—Dream gig!
	3:55pm Andrew James: Sorry for my excitement, totally forgot about the entire lineup, was mono-fixated on that Daucus performance haha
	3:55pm Guido from Cologne: This is the original: www.discogs.com... @sheila you need it! It's legendary and groundbreaking!
	3:55pm Passaic River Blues: @Sheila: I think you should definitely investigate; USoA was a major influence for Broadcast. www.discogs.com...
	3:56pm headcleaner: as to my first Pfizer jab: went very smoothly and quickly (this was at an NYC HHC, that is, a regular city hospital), with no noticeable side effects (whereas regular flu shots usually make me feel half-sick for a day or two)
	3:56pm HyperDose: @Andrew Julien Baker is killer. Always hits the spot for me.
	3:56pm djsheilab: I shall investigate Guido from Cologne + Passaic River Blues!
	3:57pm ackthpfft: @headcleaner: same here. I felt a little tired afterwards, but one middle-aged dad nap later I was AOK.
	3:57pm Dave In Leicester: Northern Picture Library were on Sarah Records one of my favourite ever labels
	3:58pm headcleaner: This American Life was always a great show, of course. Just that I can't stand to listen to the stations it usually plays on 99 percent of the rest of the time they're on
	3:58pm Andrew James: @Hyper she's so great. I've gotten to see her three times now and she always delivers.
	4:00pm Russt44: Love this Zsela record. Dark
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: United States of America - a great Psychedelic album - without Guitar !
	4:00pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: Hello from breezy Maryland!
	4:01pm Ryansterlingvirtue: asobi seksu. Forgotten band. amazing.
	4:02pm Guido from Cologne: ... without guitar with female vocals and great satire about American society
	4:02pm Andrew James: Asobi Seksu?! Sheila... the pulls today are just ace. Another great band I got to see way back in... 2007
	4:02pm Ryansterlingvirtue: I think I saw them circa 2004 or something
	4:03pm Passaic River Blues: @Andrew James: same. Remember seeing a friend's band open for Asobi Seksu and then having the odd experience of attending a wedding where the drummer was also a guest (all of this ~15 years ago).
	4:04pm Ryansterlingvirtue: the shoegaze doesn't let up!
	4:04pm Andrew James: Loveless?! ::face melts::
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: MBV otoh - Monster Gittar...
	4:05pm misterdavid: j'adore this record MBV 4 ever
	4:05pm ackthpfft: More MBV please!
	4:05pm The Oscar: Ooooooh nice.
	4:05pm bukowski.: <3 <3 <3
	4:06pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: next we'll need some Pains of Being Pure at Heart to bring it back to the late 00s
	4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love stories of how seismically loud MBV were Live.
	4:06pm HyperDose: @Andrew I'd be in awe too! I get my live fix through sets on Audiotree and KEPX. I can't wait to see live music in-person again.
	4:06pm TheoC: My Bloody Valentine!
	4:06pm ackthpfft: Wow. I type it here, it comes out there. Thanks Sheila B!
	4:06pm Guido from Cologne: You changed the sequence on MBV, interesting
	4:06pm Rick A: It's a classic. MBV was a crucial part of my 90s experience though I never saw them live sadly, maybe once the pandemic is over,s omething to hope for!
	4:06pm Phillippe Bastille: How can this be 30 years old?
	4:08pm Toutevoix: ((((((◍))))))
	4:08pm Rick A: To think that for young people today, the 90s is for them what the 50s was for me and yet, I see more continuity between the 90s and today, then the 50s and the 80s.
	4:08pm B R M: They just re-issued m b v , LOVELESS, and ISN'T ANYTHING and got them on streaming outside the uSa, but I want YOUR BLOODY VALENTINE--> ECSTASY on vinyl with all of the EPs, too (which are CD only)... gimme that in a box please!
	4:08pm Dayffid: dont think I could ever get tired of hearing this song
	4:09pm Guido from Cologne: One of the few bands that didn't accept applause and instead threw the audience out of the hall with nice . (Legendary Loveless-tour 1992)
	4:09pm ackthpfft: @Dayffid: I KNOW I couldn't.
	4:10pm Justin B.: Call me crazy, but Isn't Anything is the best for me
	4:11pm P-90: “...PLUS Superchunk and Pavement!”
	4:11pm B R M: @sheilab I was at that tour as well, in Detroit, with Buffalo Tom and Yo La Tengo. @JustinB. - me too! and it is just an absolutely dirty record on the DL
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kevin Shields interview on cutting an Analog version of 'Loveless', hearing loss & the nature of hearing generally : www.npr.org...
	4:12pm Cecile: It's a great album, even though i experienced it well after the fact. Also, their comeback album was excellent.
	4:13pm Robm: Hello fellow female music listeners
	4:14pm WFMU listener WADE: saw M B V in1991 in Chapel Hill opening up for Dinosaur Jr. Green Mind tour.
	4:14pm Barney Grubbs: @BRM - saw the same line up in SF. now my 14-yr old kid is jealous (but her hearing is probably going to be much better when she's my age)
	4:14pm djsheilab: Justin B.—Absolutely crazy!
	4:14pm headcleaner: Huh. "That album" for me, at exactly that age, was Gang of Four's _Entertainment_.
	4:15pm Jett: I love Barbara Lewis, but Big Joe Henderson owns "Snap Your Fingers."
	4:15pm Cecile: This has such a Chicago Soul feel
	4:15pm Ike: @BRM, totally missed that — did YLT crank it up for that tour at all? Hard for me to imagine them operating in that kind of wheelhouse but “I Can Hear...” does fit in w/that....
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cecile Hullo ! (btw)
	4:16pm WM: Shelia: Interesting... how did you go from a MBV fan to a connoisseur of girl pop? Sheer volume, hypnotic beat, instrumental over vocals…. I would expect your early musical instincts to lead you in a very different direction. What happened? (Of course, it all turned out for the best after all.)
	4:16pm B R M: @Ike- yes it was rocking Yo La Tengo for sure.
	4:16pm Justin B.: To each their own :) Also has any band taken a 20+year hiatus and come out with an album as good and fitting right into their catalog as m b v? I don't know of any
	4:17pm Rick A: Call me even crazier, however, I didn't care for the comeback album, too much undifferentiated sound. The genius of Loveless, and to a lesser extent Isn't Anything, is their use of melody as a way to organize the chaotic noise; it's an interplay of chaos and song structure. "Soon" is an irresistibly danceable song.
	4:18pm Cecile: Hello, Rev. I thought that mission of burma were pretty strong after a long break, as were Wire, but I understand- they are the exception, not the rule.
	4:18pm Jett: I agree 100 per cent with everything you said about My Bloody Valentine. @DjSheilaB
	4:20pm Cecile: Elis!
	4:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Rick A nicely articulated.
	4:20pm Justin B.: oh yeah @cecile, good examples!
	4:20pm Will in Norman: my headphoned ears are loving the hard panning in this track
	4:21pm djsheilab: I've never listened to MBV's comeback album. I guess I feel too protective over my feelings for Loveless. Sounds ridiculous, I know.
	4:21pm Cecile: I liked it. But I didn't have a lot invested in it. YMMV.
	4:21pm Gurldoggie: @Justin B I'm gonna say the last Gil Scott Heron album was as strong as anything else he made, 18 years after his previous record.
	4:22pm Gurldoggie: Admittedly not a band, but still.
	4:22pm PaulRobeson1920: Alcohol is a powerful drug. Rest in Peace, Gil Scott Heron
	4:23pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: This song is way too smooth!
	4:23pm djsheilab: Hey Cecile, Will in Norman, B R M, Barney Grubbs, WFMU listener WADE, Dayffid + Robm!
	4:23pm Cecile: hello!
	4:23pm nathan: groovin' to this one
	4:23pm djsheilab: Hello EarlyMorningInSeoul! Super smooooooth.
	4:23pm Will in Norman: good to be here on another great friday!
	4:24pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: Like buttah!
	4:24pm The Oscar: If anyone here hasn't heard it, you should probably seek out Shonen Knife's cover of "When You Sleep"-- this would seem to be the audience for it :)
	4:24pm djsheilab: The Oscar—Oh I'd LOVE to hear that!
	4:24pm Dayffid: Hey Sheila! Amazing show today, as always!
	4:25pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: @The Oscar, thanks for the rec! I also recommend this old WFMU blog post with kids covering MBV from 10 years ago! blog.wfmu.org... The "When You Sleep" cover here is one of my favs too
	4:25pm The Oscar: For bookmarking purposes! soundcloud.com...
	4:26pm PaulRobeson1920: Happy Belated BirThDAY! Gil Scott Heron!!! April 1st, 1949
	4:27pm ncjay: I bought this Chocolat CD in 2001 because of a positive review in ... Cha Cha Charming!
	4:27pm Dayffid: I love how much new music you play Shiela. Because its really the only place I hear it. And it's comforting to know that so much good stuff is still being released.
	4:27pm ncjay: I think it was there, anyway!
	4:27pm -o-l-i-v-i-e-r-: mmmh... chocolat...
	4:28pm Cecile: Stumbled across a great laid-back K-R&B song called Wave that might be up your alley. It's by Yubin. I've also been digging Bibi's stuff, it's KHip-hop/R&B
	4:31pm northguineahills: Damn, slept through Northern Picture Library and MBV (slept in my suit after my MS Teams interview(=).
	4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dayffid word !
	4:32pm Ike: ...there’s a link in the melodies, yeah?
	4:33pm nathan: you're also allowed to just have eclectic taste
	4:34pm Robm: @Shelia you sure bring it every week
	4:34pm headcleaner: hang in there, @ngh - one day what you're going through now will be long past you, like a bad dream
	4:35pm Cheek!: First note- oh I see why this is single of the week
	4:35pm djsheilab: Thanks Robm!
	4:35pm djsheilab: Cheek!—Haha! Right?!
	4:36pm Dayffid: this is a perfect example. I would probably never hear this otherwise.
	4:36pm Robm: shelia your welcome
	4:37pm Cecile: wow this took a turn.
	4:37pm Cecile: did not expect that.
	4:38pm djsheilab: Cecile—Ultra-bouncy to super intense!
	4:39pm flashback: hi everybody/ it`s been a while since i listened to wfmu
	4:39pm Cecile: I know. It's like the first part was keeping the studio warm for the last part.
	4:39pm djsheilab: flashback—Welcome back!
	4:39pm Cecile: Valaida Snow!
	4:39pm alan the painter: Hi, just waking after a nap. great to wake with your choices on the streaming radio. Please check my friends, pianist; Chris Davis, voice Fay Victor, saxophonist Ingrid Laubach, ah there are so many...
	4:40pm flashback: time for coffee and friday afternoon music
	4:40pm djsheilab: Hey alan the painter!
	4:41pm Jocelyn: NGH, I hope everything is okay
	4:42pm McGroovey: Valaida Snow : never heard of her, and I should have. My dad was a jazz musician and fan, with a huge collection of stuff from this era, and yet I've never heard of her. How? Great stuff.
	4:42pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: So what are some of the must get albums on this Bandcamp Friday? Any cool compilations?
	4:43pm McGroovey: www.nytimes.com...
	4:43pm Mr. Pumpy: @djsheilab...just jumped in on the ride home from the listening party in the Rutt's Hut parking lot with Joe Belock. Todd was kicking it as well, but I think a Lion's day of March, escaping into April held many people at home. Just the same, we had a good crowd and a ride home with Sophisticated Boom Boom put the cherry on top! Handy and Kate are on their way back to Brooklyn. Fun was had. WoofMoo community!
	4:44pm Mr. Pumpy: I can't believe that Maye track is self released...it is stellar! Thanks for all you do, Sheila!
	4:45pm djsheilab: Mr. Pumpy—So happy you love it!
	4:46pm Susan & Bryan: thank you Sheila B for the always healing and moving tunes. You rock so hard.
	4:46pm PaulRobeson1920: It’s all new music to me! @McGroovey I know that feeling!
	4:47pm Rick G: I cluelessly saw the artist listing and thought “wait, Sheila is playing Johnny Thunders?!” Oops
	4:47pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey Mr. P! Hope all is well!
	4:48pm Guido from Cologne: Laura!
	4:48pm cal: Love Laura Nyro. She does it for me!
	4:48pm ncjay: Laura's best song ever
	4:48pm Jett: I ❤️ Laura Nyro - TOTAL GENIUS
	4:48pm djsheilab: This song is PURE EUPHORIA! Love seeing the love for Laura!
	4:49pm ncjay: this goes very well with Todd Rundgren's "Baby Let's Swing" (about Laura, and in her style)
	4:49pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: This is so crazy to hear this song now. I was watching an episode of Gilmore Girls last night and this was the wedding song of Lorelai's parents!
	4:49pm ncjay: gotta have the full version though, not the janky medley on the "official" version of the Runt album
	4:49pm Rick A: Laura Nyro's voice and the production on these first two albums has a great feeling of free and ebullient improvisation. She was such a great songwriter too.
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Srsly what a track.
	4:50pm alan the painter: Oh, please check oUt reutregev.com..., an incredible band leader and trombonist!
	4:51pm WM: There were three sisters who used to sing this LN song to me every New Years Eve. (Yes, my name is Bill.) They did it for four of five years running until they retired the tradition.
	4:51pm The Oscar: Both Todd and Joni Mitchell have both admitted they modeled their vocal styles on Laura Nyro, which is one of those things that makes zero sense if you haven't heard her, but completely clicks if you have.
	4:51pm Frank Zaatar: What can we do to get the world to recognize what a genius Laura Nyro was?
	4:51pm tim from champaign (now washington): Sheila - Are you telling us that you're getting married but are having second thoughts?. I'm seeing a trend here.
	4:52pm cal: I was so sad when Laura died. She died too young!
	4:52pm WM: "four or five years"
	4:54pm alan the painter: Oh SeilaB, thank you for playfully playing!!!
	4:54pm PaulRobeson1920: The genius Laura Nyro is*
	4:54pm northguineahills: @Jocelyn y headcleaner: Filled out three more applications, and have three other interviews as well.
	4:55pm wizard frog: who on earth would steal a wedding bell? a usurper!
	4:55pm Gurldoggie: "...There's got to be somebody! Because what if I'm 60 years old and not married, all alone in a furnished room with pee stains on my underwear and everybody else is married! All the universe married but me!"
	4:55pm Cecile: A vote for Laura Nyro here.
	4:56pm Mr. Pumpy: Phillipe...yo!
	4:56pm Cecile: The heartbreakers actually sounded more like a boy group, in terms of the belting
	4:57pm Cecile: we've told people not to marry people, but not at the ceremony...
	4:57pm dave: What? Someone stole you away? I’m so sad
	4:58pm PaulRobeson1920: Go get that package!!!
	4:58pm Jett: ...but will you ever marry again? @DjSheilaB
	4:58pm PaulRobeson1920: Haha or not! Hopefully it will still be there later
	4:58pm Justin B.: That's exactly how I explain my marriage experience, it was great until it wasn't, and that's that, life is long and always chance for a new phase
	4:59pm northguineahills: I was w/ my partner for four years until I proposed. It took another 3 years until one day just went, fuck it, let's go to City Hall today!
	4:59pm Monica: it's ok to answer your door during a mic break! what if it's a special delivery?
	5:00pm Mr. Pumpy: Monica...what is a special delivery?
	5:00pm common: Sheila b., all! Happy friday!
	5:01pm herb.nyc: Sheila B is getting married? And she’s mulling her decision? Well then it behooves her to meet every single male on this comment board first! (I started singing “wedding bell blues” to a bill once, when he showed up at our office.)
	5:03pm northguineahills: Frankie's on Fulton in Ft Greeene, had late night crusty old blues players, and the food was amazing!
	5:03pm tim from champaign (now washington): I love long songs! Go Sheila!
	5:04pm Monica: Mr. Pumpy - but if I told you it would no longer be special, now would it:)
	5:04pm djsheilab: My groom has been delivered!
	5:04pm Frank Zaatar: Listen to Laura sing "red yellow honey sassafras and moonshine" (one of the greatest lines in popular musc) and nobody should have any doubts about her singing.
	5:05pm Russt44: L'Rain is so interesting. Great production
	5:06pm tim from champaign (now washington): Mail order groom. Hooray!
	5:06pm djsheilab: Russt44—Supposedly she's fantastic live!
	5:06pm pgalub: So THAT'S what the package was. (Hi Sheila!)
	5:06pm wizard frog: haha - I hope they poked holes in the box
	5:08pm nathan: based on the profile picture, I'm assuming Sheila was married to Ozzy Osbourne at some point
	5:08pm RB: Congratulations!
	5:09pm djsheilab: Hey pgalub, Frank Zaatar, tim from champaign (now washington) + wizard frog!

	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This Orielles has a Nyro-esque echo ...if you listen to it soon enuff after her. :)
	5:10pm Cecile: These last two songs have a really 70s euro-prog feel to them.
	5:11pm Justin B.: Congrats to you and Waldo Jeffers!
	5:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Justin B but has she got big shears ??
	5:11pm flashback: bye all. i`m still listening but am not in chat.
	5:12pm HyperDose: @Guido My clicky finger isn't as strong as it used to be, so I find myself favoriting the entire show more and more these days.
	5:12pm Doug in JC: Good afternoon... thank you for the excellent soundtrack for cooking dinner
	5:12pm Mr. Pumpy: Monica...Umm...I guess not? If special is being no one knows but you, or only certain people know, then no. It would not be. Well, I hope it's good, as I would hope for anyone receiving a special delivery. Or a speedy delivery, as per Mr. McFeely on Mr. Rodgers. Damn, that name did not age well, I just realized.
	5:12pm djsheilab: Ugh...I'm playing the wrong, crappy sounding version of this. Ah well.
	5:12pm Cecile: oh, this was huge in the early 80s on Lower Michigan underground radio.
	5:12pm patrick321: This was a real moment in time.
	5:12pm listener 126464: PIX Penthouse Party!
	5:13pm Justin B.: @Rev I could picture it!
	5:13pm Guido from Cologne: I had an ear-worm of Aie A Mwana today, but of the sill German lyrics version which became popular at the time of the original
	5:14pm Guido from Cologne: ... silly German lyrics ...
	5:14pm Jett: When "Aie A Mwana" was first released the 12 inch was constantly on my turntable, really loved it. Still holds up quite well!

	5:21pm Monica: @mr. pumpy - only her hairdresser knows for sure. and if you're old enough to remember that slogan then you up there like me:)
	5:25pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Sheila, everyone! We are back from the Rock and Soul Stream Party in the Rutt's Hut parking lot. Apparently, it takes the same amount of time to drive from Clifton, NJ, to Greenpoint, BK, as it does to find a parking spot once you get back.

	5:54pm Rick from SC: Great closer
