Welcome Back Klodder
  11:58am kat330:

Apropos, we recently got a review copy of "MAD's Greatest Artists: Mort Drucker: Five Decades of His Finest Works." Took me back to my childhood.

Hi, and welcome back, Charlie! Hi, all! Busy, busy doing a lot today, but will try to listen all the way.
  11:58am Michael:

What Me Worry? Noway Charlie's back live!
  11:59am Carmichael:

Hiya Chaz. Waitin' to see what's gonna happen!
  12:00pm Carmichael:

Because of Mad mag, i use the word "sproing!" quite a bit.
  12:00pm ndbob:

morning Gary, Charlie, Kat Michael , Carmichael everyone!
  12:01pm Perri:

Hi all, and welcome back Charlie!
  12:01pm Martha:

This Hyman is bustin' it!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:02pm charlie:

Hiya Gary, and kat330, and Michael, Carmichael, and Bob, and Perri and Martha! It's great to be back.
  12:03pm Scott:

Looking forward to the show. I'm glad we ran into you at the coop a few weeks ago.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:04pm charlie:

Me too, Scott! Nice to see you.
  12:09pm Scott:

Nice to hear an Archie Bell song that's not "Tighten Up" (which is a favorite).
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:12pm charlie:

Late period Archie Bell!
  12:13pm Tower:

Hey Charlie, Gary, Bob, Kat, everyone else. Enjoying the music so far.
  12:15pm Doug S.:

What the hell is a drell, anyway?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:15pm charlie:

Welcome, Tower, how's the view from up there?
  12:17pm ndbob:

hello Todd, Doug, Scott
  12:19pm Tower:

Just fine, thank you. Nice and sunny today.
  12:22pm Ricardo Montalban:

Are you announcing from a zeppelin hanger, by any chance?
  12:25pm Dervish:

Um, Ricardo, I think you mean Zëppelin.
  12:27pm Rīcäärdüü Möntäälbänüü:

Yes, you are correct
  12:31pm ndbob:

ah a fave here!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:34pm charlie:

@Doug: "Dell, a note to rhyme with Bell"
@Riccaarrdduuuu: Actually, I'm announcing from my zeppelin.
  12:35pm Rīcäärdüü Möntäälbänüü:

Love this album...
  12:35pm frenchee:

Busy doing too much a'something at work Frenchee has to stop and comment/pat Charlie dog on the head for this great song about dogs from my favorite "cheerleaders on acid" band ever.
  12:37pm Rīcäärdüü Möntäälbänüü:

I am hoping for his next album, Bob Dylan does and 18 minute long song about The Hindenburg.
  12:38pm Carmichael:

God, it's been forever since I listened to the Roches. Is this the same album with The Hammond Song?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:39pm charlie:

Hi Frenchee! Thanks for stopping by!
Yes, Carmichael.
  12:40pm Rīcäärdüü Möntäälbänüü:

Geez, but this is a wonderful show! The hits keep coming!
  12:44pm frenchee:

and now WE MAMBO! aiyeeeeee!
  12:53pm Tower:

Love Popol Vuh. Their other LP's are every bit as good as Fitzcarraldo.
  12:53pm coincidence?:

In Don we Trust!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:56pm charlie:

btw, that Don Trust album is one of the best things I've downloaded recently!
  12:57pm Tower:

Nice bass groove!
  1:00pm frenchee:

still not used to hearing F-bombs..... I find myself reaching for the DUMP button
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:01pm charlie:

Me too, Frenchee. I actually still bleep 'em sometimes! Welcome to the Internets...
  1:02pm still b/p:

Rather just sit and listen but gotta do the dishes...get 'em Wu Tang Clean.
  1:07pm Tower:

Shows how strong the vocals really were.
  1:08pm still b/p:

In the big Sandy relief concert televised live last night, the baaaad words would make it on the air, and then a quick audio deletion seemed to follow uselessly a few or several seconds later....like some confusion in the purpose and functioning of a delay.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:12pm charlie:

still b/p -- I've done that when missing a bleep!
  1:13pm gary mitchell:

this tatu track is fantastic
  1:13pm Uncle Michael:

Charlie, I must say that your reverb is scintillating.
  1:14pm Uncle Michael:

Honey West = Ann Francis. Yum.
  1:16pm Honey Water:

That's "Anne" UM. :)
  1:17pm Uncle Michael:

That is correct.
  1:19pm Michael:

Emma Peel > Honey West
  1:20pm wombboy:

reel fxxked up show! nice one. welcome back.
  1:21pm Honey Water:

The ocelot trumps all though.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:24pm charlie:

Then there's this:
bit.ly...
  1:26pm Michael:

Ahhhh yes indeed.
  1:28pm Rīcäärdüü Möntäälbänüü:

This is fantastic!
  1:29pm frenchee:

DAG CHARLIE, the hits just keep on a-comin'! This Satellite of Love is so good I thought it might be you and HOOF N MOUTH
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:32pm charlie:

Thanks, Frenchee -- that's quite a compliment, to the naked honesty and emotion of a high school student <3 (I'm being sincere, btw)
  1:39pm frenchee:

yes, they do, DAWG. hund/Swedish, hund/German, bow wow wow!
  1:40pm Scott:

Looking forward to spending some time on the Gelbart soundcloud. Thanks.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:41pm charlie:

Merci, Frenchee -- et maintenant, je voudrais etre vos chien.
