@Kate: "Dream Come True," indeed! How are you, my friend?

@maggiemaggie: I promote Debsey for my own selfish purposes, but I'm glad you love her as well.

Truly a wonderful interview and theme for the show! Both Dolly Mixture and Birdie are high on my list of all-time favorites.

I'm glad I "accidentally" left in that interruption. Not sorry I deliberately left in the dual burping.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:15pm
Gaylord Fields:

@Bob in Oakland: I've wanted to do this for years! She's one of my all-time favorite musical artists, and Demonstration Tapes is my "grab one LP if my house is on fire" disc.

There's a Dolly Mixture documentary called Take Three Girls, directed by Paul Kelly (ex-East Village and Debsey's partner in song and love). If you can locate it, I recommend it highly, as well as Paul's other films.

@sugarplum, let's all vow to never watch another award show, ever. There are just too many
and they make us all crazy.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:51pm

It was incredibly tough choosing just a dozen or so Dolly Mixture songs to represent them for the purpose of this show.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:51pm
robin:

decades ago, it feels like! that is a resounding yes. i may have worn it out...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:53pm

@robin: I'm sure the songs are now available in the digital realm, which makes my role obsolete.

Even though I could listen to all of the vinyl here, it will be so much fun hearing you play them. Ask why the complete box set was missing a track

@Matthew Kaplan Superstar: Off-mic, Debsey mentioned why it's not 100% comprehensive, but I don't recall what she said. (This is pre-recorded.)

Matthew Kaplan Superstar:

It is missing the version of Borinda's Lament from The Fireside EP
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:01pm
Gaylord Fields:

Right, it has the b-side of "Remember This" version only. Not sure why.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:03pm

This is the part of the interview when the band soundchecking downstairs from The Lexington gave us an involuntary soundtrack.
