	2:05pm JohnW!: Hello Denny and Fellow Denizens! I'm looking forward to another great show.
	♥ 2:06pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there myron!
	♥ 2:09pm myron feld: NYC area listeners may remember when WPIX-FM went kind of New Wave, '79-80 or so. Lou Reed was a guest on an show (maybe Jane Hamburger's?) and played "Gimme Gimme Good Lovin'" and cited the guitar solo as "a very Lou Reed solo."
	♥ 2:09pm Dennis Diken: HEY NOW Andrew in Toronto, b0b0b0b Plasticland, myron feld & JohnW!
	2:10pm Jon Graboff: Hey DD! Just got in under a heavy heavy rain but didn't wait til it died down so I could enter the den asap! worth getting a little wet!
	♥ 2:11pm Dennis Diken: @Jon Graboff- LET'S PARTY!
	2:15pm Gerry from Miami: HOWDY, Dennis! Today is the 75th birthday of Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson. And Ronnie Spector would have turned 79. RIP, Ronnie.
	♥ 2:16pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - welcome - news we can use! man, I miss Ronnie
	♥ 2:20pm LesleyK: Hey hey Dennis and everyone!
	2:21pm Gerry from Miami: Henderson's and Ellington's bands were peerless. And they called Paul Whiteman the "King of Jazz!"
	♥ 2:22pm medson: Hola Dennis and all
	♥ 2:23pm Dennis Diken: @LesleyK - alright! @medson - yeah! @Gerry from Miami - yeah, right?
	♥ 2:27pm LesleyK: Screaming werewolves? I picture more of a howl or growl. ..but I've never actually met one 😂
	♥ 2:30pm Dennis Diken: @LesleyK - we must bring up this important question next time we see Mr. Zaremba!
	♥ 2:30pm LesleyK: Absolutely!
	2:35pm Gerry from Miami: I know this show is a repeat, but we should still honor the passing of the great songwriter, Lamont Dozier. Maybe play a couple of his Motown classics next time you are doing a 100% live show.
	2:35pm Jon Graboff: Pretty hip to pick up on this song so early. Way before Cooder introduced it to us youngsters!
	♥ 2:36pm Dennis Diken: @Jon Graboff - don't know his version? @Gerry from Miami - I probably will!
	♥ 2:37pm myron feld: @Jon: exactly, Ry was my intro to that one as well. I saw Mavis late last year and she was fabulous!
	2:37pm Jon Graboff: Cooders' version is on the Paradise and Lunch album
	♥ 2:41pm myron feld: Never heard this Supremes. The post-Diana group had lots of good stuff.
	♥ 2:44pm Dennis Diken: @myron feld - agreed - some superfine post-Ross Supremes stash abounds! and dig Sir Wonder's cameo on the pic sleeve!
	♥ 2:49pm myron feld: I was wondering (NPI) how he ended up there.
	♥ 2:57pm Stu Rutherford: Hello Dennis & all!
	♥ 2:57pm Dennis Diken: @Stu Rutherford - glad you're here!
	2:59pm Jon Graboff: Wow. This Tokens tune is pretty cool. Incredibly pitchy but that's transcended pretty nicely!
	♥ 3:00pm Dennis Diken: @Jon Graboff - a fine Goffin-King chestnut t'boot! I dig pitchy vocals if they're done right!
	3:01pm Gerry from Miami: The Tokens will forever be known as rhe band that popularized "The Lion Sleeps Tonight(Wimoweh)". Give them kudos for that one!
	3:02pm Dudski: Some really nice work by Hal Blaine on "Barefoot Gentleman"
	♥ 3:03pm Woo: The King!
	3:03pm Gerry from Miami: The Association----the ultimate college men's choir. Such great vocal arrangements.
	♥ 3:04pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - true, though that was just the tip of their iceberg of greatness! agreed re the Association - godlike! @Dudski - yes, indeed!
	3:07pm Gerry from Miami: Never realized how much I liked Sergio Mendes and his Brazilian buddies. They sound even better in Portuguese.
	3:09pm Gerry from Miami: DENNY, guess I will have to revisit the Tokens catalog on your recommendation.
	♥ 3:10pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry - yes, we sure love our Mendes! hope you dig the Tokens other rekkids!
	3:11pm Jon Graboff: @Dennis - splendid mix today!
	♥ 3:11pm Gaylord Fields: Hello dere, Dennis and Yon Denizens! Thanks for the digital spin-o-rama from my premium!
	♥ 3:11pm Woo: Who is The Answer?
	♥ 3:12pm Dan from Peekskill: I was lucky enough to see Tony Bennett in San Francisco back in 1999 (at an annual meeting of the Society of Actuaries!)
	♥ 3:12pm Dennis Diken: @Gaylord Fields - thanks for making it available - it's only one of my favorite pieces of music of all time! and, can you "answer" Woo's question?
	♥ 3:12pm Gaylord Fields: @Woo: It's a studio concoction led by Mitch Leigh, who wrote the music for Man of La Mancha!
	♥ 3:13pm Eric R: I see I missed the Tokens. I know that song from the Rockin' Berries version. It's pretty good!
	3:13pm Gerry from Miami: Tony from Astoria, Queens. Still going well into his 90s. And not afraid to mix it up with more contemporary musicians like Lady Gaga and Elvis Costello.
	♥ 3:15pm Woo: Thanks Gaylord!
	3:16pm Gerry from Miami: Did the Tokens cash in on the George Harrison plagiarism decision over "He's So Fine"/"My Sweet Lord"?
	♥ 3:16pm Woo: Tony B's farewell show with Gaga was stunning. He gave it everything which wasn't easy for him.
	♥ 3:17pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - yes, the Tokens did ok on the "My Sweet Lord" deal
	♥ 3:18pm Dennis Diken: @Eric R - yes, it is! my fave is the Tokens version - but The Rockin' Berries as well as The Ivy League took alot from The Tokens style!
	♥ 3:19pm Eric R: what was the connection between the Tokens and He's So Fine?
	♥ 3:19pm Dennis Diken: @Dan from Peekskill - yes, Bennett was a delight to behold in person!
	3:22pm AtlanticTunnel: Hey Dennis.......checkin in!!!!!!......Luv the Dusty cover!!!!!!!!!!!
	♥ 3:22pm Dennis Diken: @AtlanticTunnel - dig!
	♥ 3:22pm myron feld: i love this guy! "Bu-DOCK-an!"
	♥ 3:23pm Stu Rutherford: Rockin' in Boodockin!
	♥ 3:24pm Gaylord Fields: Budockin is between Hoboken and Weehawken.
	3:24pm Jon Graboff: Green Day in the R&R Hall of Fame before Cheap Trick. Somethin' ain't right!
	♥ 3:26pm Dennis Diken: @Jon Graboff - you are not wrong!
	♥ 3:26pm myron feld: I think Jeff Craig miscounted: Live at BuDOCKan is CT's 4th album. Hard to believe he got something wrong.
	♥ 3:26pm Eric R: Joan Baez before Johnny Burnette, etc.
	♥ 3:27pm Dan from Peekskill: Tony Bennett was hired to perform at the 50th Anniversary of the Society of Actuaries. I ended up sitting right near him and the band, unfortunately near some actuarial recruiters, but it was a joy. And much more appropriate than back when I worked for MONY (Mutual of New York) and the senior management wanted to hire Billy Idol for their meeting of general agents. The CEO had to be talked out of that one. However history tells us that Tommy James was looking out of his hotel window at the sign of this now defunct insurance company when he wrote his hit song.
	♥ 3:28pm Dennis Diken: @myron feld - really?!
	♥ 3:29pm Dennis Diken: speaking of myron feld - TAKE NOTE 'YON DENIZENS' - MR. FELD WILL BE FILLING IN HERE IN 'THE DEN' NEXT WEDNESDAY 8/17 - IT WILL BE A GASSER! DON'T MISS IT! YEAH!!
	♥ 3:30pm Dan from Peekskill: @myron feld - There's lots wrong at the the R&R HoF. I put the continuing absence of Warren Zevon at the top of the list, especially when Linda Ronstadt got in singing his songs.
	♥ 3:33pm myron feld: @Dan: I don't think Jeff Craig of LP Report is associated with the RRHOF. But given his accuracy, perhaps he should be! The whole thing is silly. But the attached museum has some cool stuff.
	♥ 3:35pm Dan from Peekskill: I realize my comment on the HOF was aimed @Jon Graboff. Sorry.
	♥ 3:35pm Dennis Diken: indeed, the museum at the RnRHOF is INCREDIBLE! I saw The McCoys iconic bass drum head, Denny Wilson's early 60s Gretsch kit and Handsome Dick Manitoba's jacket as seen on Go Girl Crazy!
	3:37pm Nezrok: Well, at least I'll catch the last set.
	♥ 3:38pm Dan from Peekskill: And I loved the HoF. I was actually quite surprised how moved I was when I visited there, expecting a superficial display of celebrity memorabilia, but finding substantial meaning. Quite a place. My complaint is mostly with some of the inductees, both those who are included and those who have been ignored.
	3:38pm AtlanticTunnel: The Eyes....YEAH!!!!!!!!!!
	♥ 3:40pm Dennis Diken: @Nezrok - hey hey!
	♥ 3:50pm Andrew in Toronto: Thanks for another superb show!
	3:50pm Nezrok: BrassTacks. Where have I heard that name before?
	♥ 3:52pm Dennis Diken: @Nezrok - ha!
	3:53pm Gerry from Miami: I'm all in for Dusty, 24-7, 365 days a year. She may, outside of Aretha, be the greatest pop vocalist ever.
	♥ 3:53pm myron feld: Thanks for the encore classic, Dennis! Hope to see all Denizens next week -- and every Wednesday!
	♥ 3:55pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry from Miami - no argument here re Dusty!
	3:56pm Jon Graboff: Thanks DD!
	♥ 3:57pm Dennis Diken: @Jon Graboff - you got it!
	3:57pm Gerry from Miami: Thanks, Denny! See ya next week, Mr. Feld!
	♥ 3:57pm Dennis Diken: @Gerry - thanks for being here!
	♥ 3:57pm myron feld: Thanks, Gerry, see you then!
	♥ 3:57pm Dennis Diken: “THANKS ‘YON DENIZENS’ FOR MAKING THE SCENE IN ‘THE DEN’ TODAY! DON’T FORGET – TUNE IN NEXT WEDNESDAY FOR MYRON FELD’S FILL-IN! (SAY THAT 3 TIMES FAST!) LOVE YOU ALL MADLY!!”
