	3:01pm ncjay: good afternoon Sheila and company!
	3:01pm Rob Kopp: Hi Sheila, hi all.
	3:01pm Ori: This intro ❤️
	3:01pm Cecile: Hola, all! And let's talk Eurovision!
	3:01pm Jocelyn: Happy Friday Everyone!
	3:01pm ncjay: Monica took great care of us last week but so good to have you back!
	3:02pm Rob Kopp: @Cecile: Do we have to?
	♥ 3:02pm Michael 98145: what ncjay said
	3:03pm Cecile: You don't have to. Waylon's song was awful.
	3:03pm BabyBear: Hi Sheila
	3:03pm mzmzzm: i see Kate, Donna, Aretha and Trent Reznor look a likes.
	♥ 3:04pm The Oscar: Afternoon sophisticats!
	♥ 3:04pm djsheilab: And we open with the new Beach House album, which is blowing my mind! Thank you all for being here. I know you were in the best of hands last week. I listened to the first half of Monica's show and it was FAB!
	♥ 3:04pm loveless: I’m loving the photo of the photo of The Kalbells. Can’t wait to hear them live.
	3:04pm mzmzzm: heiii eSueBueee, crauzie troll listner here bu'luv'yr'sho'jus'sayin
	♥ 3:06pm listener james from westwood: Welcome back, Sheila, and afternoon, all!
	♥ 3:06pm northguineahills: @Ori: I once had a pretentious dj name "l" (vertical line), and got sick of it, so I was brain storming, and being from the South (US), i wanted nothing to do w/ it, so north popped in. Being a geographer, I was always fascinated w/ all of the locations named Guineas (as a touch of the exotic) around the world, and then there is the guinea pig and the old British currency, the guinea. Then I wanted it to sound pastoral, so, I added "hills". A very cromulent way to come up w/ a nom de musique. Now, years later, I use it for all of my aliases. Collinas de Guinea de Norte!
	3:07pm Rob Kopp: Platenclub Utrecht (my record club of 7 collectors) is making a monthly top 10. Last Monday on no 1: the Eurovision entry by Moldavia (not my choice). Our so called misunderstood groove (the record with the lowest points) was the winner from Israel. And I agree about Waylon.
	♥ 3:07pm Devin B.: Yay! Love this new Samara Lubelski!
	♥ 3:08pm djsheilab: Thanks for the warm welcome back Michael 98145, P-90, ncjay, Rob Kopp, Ori, Cecile, Jocelyn, BabyBear, mzmzzm, The Oscar, loveless, northguineahills, listener james from westwood, + Devin B.!
	3:08pm Cecile: I loved Moldova. They are always batshit crazy. Israel had a great performer with a very slight song.
	♥ 3:08pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey Boomers! Happy wet Friday from the wilds of suburban Baltimore.
	♥ 3:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Sheila, with your patented boom-boom style of sophistication. Also, more Kalbell!
	3:10pm Glen but also Luis: I'm wearing all black and am digging this black related opening set. new beach house album is very good btw!
	♥ 3:10pm Michael 98145: thanks, @ngh, great story ! :)
	♥ 3:10pm northguineahills: Also, as I didn't want anything to do w/ the South, I adopted what I thought was Canadian slang, so take off you hoser, eh?!
	3:10pm frannie: Afternoon!
	♥ 3:10pm northguineahills: Very poppy for Samara Lubelski!
	♥ 3:11pm djsheilab: Glen but also Luis: I didn't even realize that black connection!
	♥ 3:11pm djsheilab: Hi Frannie!
	♥ 3:12pm djsheilab: And welcome Ken from Hyde Park + Phillippe Bastille!
	3:13pm Rob Kopp: About black: yesterday I received my 5th single with the song Dressed in black and this is the best: The Pussycats.
	♥ 3:13pm The Oscar: Whooaaa that segue!
	♥ 3:13pm djsheilab: Kalbells are soundchecking with a cover of "Sophisticated Boom Boom." DYING!!!!
	3:13pm BabyBear: That was a rad transition!
	3:14pm Rob Kopp: Hopefully they're also playing it live
	3:14pm mzmzzm: our big Sis Moniee pleaded her portable laundry machine for her sanity... last wk
	♥ 3:14pm djsheilab: Thanks BabyBear + The Oscar! I did jump up + down in my bedroom last night when I played those two back to back :)
	3:15pm Rob Kopp: Please tell them the listeners love to hear it!
	♥ 3:16pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—I will do my best! I want you all to hear it too!
	♥ 3:18pm BronwynB: hey sheila and everyone :)
	♥ 3:18pm Passaic River Blues: Oh man, a live "Sophisticated Boom Boom" cover sounds lovely.
	♥ 3:19pm chris: hi, Sheila and boomboomers
	3:19pm Cecile: I have to agree!
	♥ 3:19pm djsheilab: Hey BronwynB, Passaic River Blues, + chris!
	♥ 3:20pm djsheilab: I'm gonna push for them to add "SBB" to their set-list. It's such a tease!
	♥ 3:22pm Dominick: Hello
	3:22pm Cecile: I have to agree!
	3:23pm ncjay: Christine song is very nice
	3:23pm d: Sheila, You've got a good groove going today!
	♥ 3:25pm Passaic River Blues: The vocalizations and horns are a large part of what makes Rubblebucket so good, so this Kalbells set is likely to be killer.
	♥ 3:25pm djsheilab: Thanks d! I'm feeling it BIG time! And I've got Kalbells soundchecking in front of me, which is definitely helping.
	♥ 3:31pm Michael 98145: from 1981? nice !
	3:32pm Yami: Hi Sheila, hi everyone :) can’t wait to hear kalbells
	3:32pm Cecile: Dame-Funk
	3:33pm ncjay: Duran Duran has always been wonderful and never let anyone tell you any differently, Sheila!
	3:34pm modchick65: I don't know what that means "Duran Duran and classy are oxymorons." Honestly, when you were a 12 year old girl growing up in Central Pennsylvania, their videos were the height of class, actually. No one I knew were sipping yachts in Caribbean or Mediterranean. But maybe that's just me.
	3:35pm Cecile: They were delightfully nouveau riche.
	♥ 3:35pm BronwynB: im antonio
	♥ 3:35pm The Oscar: Antonio Bender would be a pretty good stage name.
	♥ 3:36pm Carmichael: Heya Citizen Sheila and Boomers.
	3:36pm modchick65: Duran Duran were one of my inspirations to get out of that fucking place.
	♥ 3:36pm steveo: we are all antonio (hi sheila)
	♥ 3:38pm Michael 98145: what a fun track
	♥ 3:43pm djsheilab: I just posted a video of Kalbells doing Sophisticated Boom Boom on an Instagram story. My handle is djsheilab
	3:43pm Rob Kopp: The only Antonio in my record collection is Antonio Bribiesca, who recorded with Chavela Vargas
	3:44pm BabyBear: Can't wait for this Snail Mail album to some out!!!
	3:44pm ncjay: nice profile of Snail Mail in the NYT this week. I bought her EP after reading it
	3:45pm Rob Kopp: And when we're going to write the name differently (Anthonio) then I have more: Tonio K.
	♥ 3:47pm Michael 98145: Bessie !!
	♥ 3:48pm The Oscar: Antonio Margret?
	3:49pm Jocelyn: Ann Margret! My idol
	♥ 3:49pm Will from Seattle: listen to elvis trying to sound all cosmopolitan
	♥ 3:49pm frozen_peas: this song is so much fun
	♥ 3:50pm djsheilab: I was thinking it'd be fun to do a show filled with songs about men with unusual names. I'll need your help with that one! And more Antonio / Anthonio songs :)
	♥ 3:51pm frozen_peas: Not an unusual name but Andy by Les Rita Mitsouko is a great song
	3:53pm Rob Kopp: The Diana in the Kinks song Good day is Diana Dors
	♥ 3:53pm djsheilab: I have EXCELLENT news to report.....Kalbells are going to play Sophisticated Boom Boom!!!
	♥ 3:54pm Will from Seattle: Melvin by the Belles would be perfect for that. it's a parody of Gloria by them www.youtube.com...
	3:55pm Rob Kopp: Was just downloading Instagram, so that's not necessary anymore
	3:55pm Cecile: Andrei by L7
	♥ 3:56pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—Oh yes it is! Trust me :)
	3:56pm Cecile: this reminds me of the theme from Exodus. And an old singer's joke: There were some words man was not meant to write Some songs man was not meant to sing And this is one of them...
	♥ 3:56pm djsheilab: Will from Seattle—Totally! Melvin is perfect.
	3:56pm Cecile: Sing it to the tune of Exodus...
	3:57pm Anita in Morristown: Hi Sheila! Loved hearing Bessie Smith
	3:57pm kurty v: AMAZING set. im working and this is helping me jam!
	3:59pm Cecile: Hey this is a cover of France Gall's Eurovision winner!
	♥ 4:00pm djsheilab: Thanks Kurty V! + Anita in Morristown!
	♥ 4:02pm BennettCap: Groovy track.
	4:06pm battleaxe: Every Friday I'm listing the albums I've got to purchase on Sat. Thanxz a ton Sheila!!!
	4:06pm Jocelyn: I never find mugs or keychains with my name
	4:06pm Cecile: YES. I only found name stuff in Quebec City. And they had accent marks, but that's OK.
	♥ 4:07pm The Oscar: There's never an Oscar. Ever.
	♥ 4:07pm Phillippe Bastille: The baseball player Ubaldo Jimenez had fun with the name thing in a commercial a while back. Couldn't find an Ubaldo in the little bike license plates. He asked the cashier if he had anymore in the back.
	4:08pm Rob Kopp: SBB!
	♥ 4:08pm Passaic River Blues: Nice!
	♥ 4:08pm Devin B.: Boom Boom!
	♥ 4:08pm Mark Hurst: I love this song!
	♥ 4:09pm BronwynB: i couldn't even find name stuff in wales. i'll have to wait till i get to australia someday.
	♥ 4:09pm BronwynB: i guess the welsh assume there aren't any tourists named bronwyn
	♥ 4:09pm eyenoise: NICE COVER CHOICE, KALBELLS!
	4:12pm Rob Kopp: Do they have 2 keyboard players, bass and drums?
	♥ 4:13pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—Dat's right!
	4:16pm Rob Kopp: The vocals remind me a bit of Norwegian wood
	♥ 4:16pm Dano59: greetings all, really enjoying this much-needed sweetness @djsheilab
	4:16pm JakeGould: Hey Sheila! So is there name talk happening? Anyone else see that GQ trending baby name list. It’s amaizng! Jaxxon? Ledger? Ensley? Paisleigh? www.gq.com...
	4:17pm Jocelyn: Loving this so much
	♥ 4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I gotta fever for More Kalbells !! ...yeah I'll see myself out...
	4:20pm fp cassini: perth amboy n.j.?
	♥ 4:20pm chresti: I think Drooler is a good name

	4:21pm bore: me too
	4:21pm who is on day phone: very talented singers. Most impressed.
	4:22pm JakeGould: I like the dual keyboard sound. Also, here is the full list of trending names courtesy of the social security administration. www.ssa.gov...
	4:23pm Rob Kopp: Are they standing in the Joe Meek bathroom?
	4:24pm fp cassini: whoa, that kick drum
	♥ 4:24pm TDK60: Hello
	4:26pm JakeGould: Obligatory Bandcamp link. kalbells.bandcamp.com

	♥ 4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just sing 'sax sax sax' like TheWho sang 'cello cello cello'... So cute! : )
	♥ 4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (pennywhistle I should think)
	♥ 4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (recorder?)
	4:27pm Rob Kopp: I think live this must be just the same as fun band Hinds
	♥ 4:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: I hope Sam Francisco made the list.
	4:27pm JakeGould: Shitty Flute?
	♥ 4:27pm TDK60: Maybe a flute-o-phone?
	4:28pm JakeGould: How about a comb kazoo?
	♥ 4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: : D
	♥ 4:29pm The Oscar: My GF is a preschool teacher, so I get to hear all the latest "in" names (at least as of 3-4 years ago). Turns out there's ALWAYS multiple Sophias.
	4:29pm iambasil: Hi SheilaB hey everyone hope everyone is good,happy friday TGIF!!!!!!!
	4:29pm Cecile: I want to name something Impala Ferrigno.
	♥ 4:29pm The Oscar: (Also Kalbells are totally rad, but you don't need me to tell you that).
	4:30pm thorsten: it sounds sooo good! is it possible to download the session afterwards?
	4:30pm Good Ol' Sleth: Such great, heart-warming sax
	♥ 4:31pm djsheilab: thorsten—The session will be available to download once it goes on the Free Music Archive. Otherwise you can listen to it in the SBB archives.
	♥ 4:32pm Passaic River Blues: OK, sold. To Bandcamp!
	♥ 4:32pm chresti: Impala is a perfect name. Ledger, on the other hand, makes me think Binder.
	♥ 4:32pm Mark Hurst: Amazing live set!
	4:33pm thorsten: thank you, sheila.
	♥ 4:33pm chresti: Yay!
	♥ 4:39pm northguineahills: Ok, finally back at my desk, tretastic set, Kalbells!
	♥ 4:43pm Passaic River Blues: Nina Simone 100, indeed.
	♥ 4:44pm chresti: I once worked with someone who was named after the brand of sheet that her mother gave birth on
	4:45pm Rob Kopp: When I did the 5-day songwriting course by Ray Davies in 2011, he asked us (16 students) to write something about your hero. Nobody wrote about a band or artist. All of us named a family member or friend!
	4:45pm Cecile: In my experience: The Bee Gees were the one disco group it was OK to like, and Fleetwood Mac were OK to like before Buckingham-Nicks, but it was OK to like Lindsay Buckingham because he was a great guitar player. Weird times.
	♥ 4:45pm northguineahills: I picked up Fleet Mac's "Tusk" in 2003, and fell immediately in love, and asked myself why it took me so long to listen to them. (then again, I didn't like pop until 98.
	4:46pm Rob Kopp: 2001
	4:46pm Cecile: Wow, Rob, that must have been a great experience.
	4:47pm Rob Kopp: It was. Will never forget that week.
	4:48pm Rob Kopp: Ray Davies is still doing those songwriting courses once a year!
	♥ 4:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not the image many have of Ray, I think. That staggers me!!
	♥ 4:52pm sibeliuss: ahh yet another amazing interview! -- really great show
	♥ 4:53pm chresti: Most enjoyable, thank you
	4:53pm Adrian in London and The Contessa: Hello Sheila, wonderful Kalbells and Boomers. We’re in s Spiegeltent in Norwich, having just seen a show. Will listen in the archive. Love to you all! Xx
	4:54pm fp cassini: i took an electronic music class in SF with an afro-amer gal who named her son Tyvek, after the building wrap
	♥ 4:55pm Michael 98145: woo
	4:57pm Cecile: This would be a Midnight Love fave if it were still around.
	4:57pm Yami: Omg I’m so glad you like like this song just as much as I do @sheilab <3
	4:57pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: I'm eating breakfast now and debating, should I add a dash of honey to my milk...?
	4:58pm Rob Kopp: A few months before I was going to that songwriting course in 2001, they announced a Ray Davies gig in The Netherlands in the week before that course. And then a gig in the week after. And then IN that week. I feared the course would be cancelled because of that Dutch tour, but instead the tour was cancelled. Reason: Ray was too busy with a CD. I knew better. Instead of performing for 16000 fans he preferred to teach 16 students.
	4:59pm Cecile: Who is singing backup? Brian Wilson?
	5:00pm fp cassini: great anecdote rob— thanx
	♥ 5:00pm northguineahills: @fp cassini: that's actually a pretty cool name. Zarathustra help my offspring if I decide to have kids w/ my wife.... (although I'm partial to Portuguese names for some odd reason, even though I'm a wasp and my wife is Mexican)
	♥ 5:00pm djsheilab: Cecile—Producer Tommy LiPuma.
	5:01pm Cecile: wow. Uncanny resemblance.
	5:01pm Yami: @early morning in Seoul, yes it’s delicious
	5:01pm Rob Kopp: @Cecile: Brian Wilson IS singing on the title song of Dirty computer (2018) by Janelle Monae
	5:02pm Cecile: I also offer up the names Sampson McWasher, Waxahatchee Omnibulous, and Smergogenic.
	♥ 5:02pm djsheilab: Yami!!!!
	♥ 5:02pm djsheilab: EarlyMorningInSeoul—Always add honey!
	5:03pm Cecile: I should listen to that. All the drag queens I know give it a big thumbs up.
	5:03pm Rob Kopp: and a beat: Honeybeat
	♥ 5:04pm northguineahills: @Yami: If I didn't see the "@" above, I would think you were godzillaing South Korea.
	5:04pm fp cassini: i gotta focus on work, so it's back to my fave french female music maker: Éliane Radigue
	5:06pm JakeGould: @northguineahills: What if Godzilla showed up during the Korean peace talks? Now that would be something!
	♥ 5:07pm Michael 98145: is this our new natl anthem ?
	♥ 5:07pm northguineahills: eliane radigue is a fave of mine!
	♥ 5:08pm northguineahills: @Jake: It would still do less damage then if Trump meets Kim in Singapore. (Hoping for a broken clock situation).
	5:10pm ncjay: Seamless segue, there, Sheila!
	♥ 5:11pm djsheilab: Two curses in a row! Yikes!
	♥ 5:11pm djsheilab: Thanks ncjay!
	♥ 5:11pm northguineahills: Tracey Thorn! I too, fight like a girl!
	5:11pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: good catches there!
	5:11pm Rob Kopp: I heard shit
	♥ 5:11pm Michael 98145: wow & flutter
	5:13pm Rob Kopp: Do you really have to turn the volume down (or bleep)? So you have to write down: at 0:21 she's singing @#$ and on 1:43 %^&*
	♥ 5:15pm Michael 98145: ( there is a lot more obscenity going on in the US than just language on the radio :)
	♥ 5:15pm djsheilab: Exactly—Rob Kopp.
	♥ 5:15pm djsheilab: Michael 98145—You can say that again!
	♥ 5:16pm Michael 98145: i might do that :)
	♥ 5:16pm Phillippe Bastille: Ok, I'm definitely hearing Yanny
	5:17pm Rob Kopp: It's not that bad, I think. As far as I can remember this is the first time Sheila turned the volume down.
	♥ 5:17pm northguineahills: Well there goes Sheila's dump button allocation for May ;)
	♥ 5:17pm chris: fcc rules are soooo freakin' out of date. sigh.
	5:19pm JakeGould: FCC = Effing Cautious Conservatives
	♥ 5:20pm WO Town Wick: That "Screwed" song was spicy! Single of the Week is great. Thanks for another heck of a set Sheila B
	5:20pm still b/p: That outfit on the Afet cover....I'd wear that to bed in the winter.
	5:23pm Rob Kopp: Dutch song writer Annie M.G. Schmidt wrote a song about the plant Fuchsia. The refrain went: who likes to have a loot of the fuch-fuch-fuchsia. Everybody was singing loudly along with the song, not realising what they were singing in English.
	5:24pm drewo: Yay Sheila! Yay Tucson!!! We escaped NYC eight years ago for Tucson - no looking back! Lots of good music to hear and see here - like Natalia LaFourcade this weekend! (Thanks for introducing me to her music).
	♥ 5:25pm Michael 98145: ( one click away www.instagram.com... )
	♥ 5:26pm common: sheila b. all! happy Friday! beeeeeersies!
	5:26pm DMZ: What was that video you mentioned? Ravenna Honey?
	♥ 5:28pm djsheilab: DMZ—Raveena's "Honey"
	5:30pm DMZ: Thanks!
	♥ 5:32pm Michael 98145: ( love the comments ... www.youtube.com... )
	♥ 5:32pm djsheilab: drewo—I went to the Congress Hotel for a drink and spotted the theatre across the street with Natalia Lafourcade's name in lights! How great that you're going to see her this weekend :)
	♥ 5:34pm northguineahills: oh, really dug that Afet Serenay !
	5:34pm Rob Kopp: Here's the Fuchsia-song I mentioned. Ja zuster, nee zuster (Yes nurse, no nurse) was a musical-TV-program for children and adults that ran in NL around 1966-1968. www.youtube.com...
	5:34pm drewo: And the Congress Hotel has a nice small room, Club Congress, for and local and touring bands.
	♥ 5:35pm northguineahills: @drewo: I escaped NYC last summer (for the liberal cultural oasis of Gainesville, FL), unfortunately, my wife is currently trapped in NY.
	♥ 5:36pm Michael 98145: ( @ngh, hope you two get to be together soon ... )
	♥ 5:37pm Michael 98145: Sheila Chandra ! :)
	5:38pm Rob Kopp: Love this desert horse
	♥ 5:38pm chris: fuck yeah to that segue, Sheila! nice!
	♥ 5:39pm Passaic River Blues: I hope Ms. Prochet has recovered from all her medical issues from last year.
	♥ 5:40pm djsheilab: Passaic River Blues—She's got an album due out next month! Hopefully that means she's all patched up.
	♥ 5:41pm Passaic River Blues: Oh, excellent!
	5:41pm Rob Kopp: Is this on vinyl?
	♥ 5:42pm Hughie Considine: Even without headphones, this is clearly headphones music.
	5:42pm Rob Kopp: This is the most psychedelic song I've heard in years
	5:43pm Rob Kopp: Chavela Vargas?
	5:44pm Rob Kopp: This is one of the best sets I've heard, Sheila
	5:45pm Rob Kopp: Violetta Parra is surely another name I have to check
	♥ 5:45pm djsheilab: Thank you, Rob! The new Melody's Echo Chamber will be available on vinyl. You can pre-order it here: store.fatpossum.com...
	♥ 5:47pm Hughie Considine: She is utterly unmistakable.
	♥ 5:47pm dale: joan is gorgeous here.
	♥ 5:48pm northguineahills: what dale said....
	5:53pm Rob Kopp: First I was thinking you were going to play the original Dana dana by Aaron Zeitlin from 1940 (according to the Originals book you also have)
	5:53pm All out Scott: someone recently asked me what kind of music i liked. i chuckled because i knew they werent going to understand my response. "whatever SheilaB is playing"
	♥ 5:53pm djsheilab: All out Scott—Haha! Love the answer :)
	♥ 5:54pm Joe McG: Lovely set, Sheila!
	♥ 5:55pm dale: if this woman is overdubbing and harmonizing with herself she's pretty damn good.
	♥ 5:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Sheila. Have a most sophisticated weekend.
	♥ 5:56pm Michael 98145: i once smoked Gauloises Bleues

Listener comments!
	♥ 3:01pm Michael 98145: ✥ > yay
	3:01pm P-90: Greetings DJ Sheila and Devotees!
	3:01pm ncjay: good afternoon Sheila and company!
	3:01pm Rob Kopp: Hi Sheila, hi all.
	3:01pm Ori: This intro ❤️
	3:01pm Cecile: Hola, all! And let's talk Eurovision!
	3:01pm Jocelyn: Happy Friday Everyone!
	3:01pm ncjay: Monica took great care of us last week but so good to have you back!
	3:02pm Rob Kopp: @Cecile: Do we have to?
	♥ 3:02pm Michael 98145: what ncjay said
	3:03pm Cecile: You don't have to. Waylon's song was awful.
	3:03pm BabyBear: Hi Sheila
	3:03pm mzmzzm: i see Kate, Donna, Aretha and Trent Reznor look a likes.
	♥ 3:04pm The Oscar: Afternoon sophisticats!
	♥ 3:04pm djsheilab: And we open with the new Beach House album, which is blowing my mind! Thank you all for being here. I know you were in the best of hands last week. I listened to the first half of Monica's show and it was FAB!
	♥ 3:04pm loveless: I’m loving the photo of the photo of The Kalbells. Can’t wait to hear them live.
	3:04pm mzmzzm: heiii eSueBueee, crauzie troll listner here bu'luv'yr'sho'jus'sayin
	♥ 3:06pm listener james from westwood: Welcome back, Sheila, and afternoon, all!
	♥ 3:06pm northguineahills: @Ori: I once had a pretentious dj name "l" (vertical line), and got sick of it, so I was brain storming, and being from the South (US), i wanted nothing to do w/ it, so north popped in. Being a geographer, I was always fascinated w/ all of the locations named Guineas (as a touch of the exotic) around the world, and then there is the guinea pig and the old British currency, the guinea. Then I wanted it to sound pastoral, so, I added "hills". A very cromulent way to come up w/ a nom de musique. Now, years later, I use it for all of my aliases. Collinas de Guinea de Norte!
	3:07pm Rob Kopp: Platenclub Utrecht (my record club of 7 collectors) is making a monthly top 10. Last Monday on no 1: the Eurovision entry by Moldavia (not my choice). Our so called misunderstood groove (the record with the lowest points) was the winner from Israel. And I agree about Waylon.
	♥ 3:07pm Devin B.: Yay! Love this new Samara Lubelski!
	♥ 3:08pm djsheilab: Thanks for the warm welcome back Michael 98145, P-90, ncjay, Rob Kopp, Ori, Cecile, Jocelyn, BabyBear, mzmzzm, The Oscar, loveless, northguineahills, listener james from westwood, + Devin B.!
	3:08pm Cecile: I loved Moldova. They are always batshit crazy. Israel had a great performer with a very slight song.
	♥ 3:08pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey Boomers! Happy wet Friday from the wilds of suburban Baltimore.
	♥ 3:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Sheila, with your patented boom-boom style of sophistication. Also, more Kalbell!
	3:10pm Glen but also Luis: I'm wearing all black and am digging this black related opening set. new beach house album is very good btw!
	♥ 3:10pm Michael 98145: thanks, @ngh, great story ! :)
	♥ 3:10pm northguineahills: Also, as I didn't want anything to do w/ the South, I adopted what I thought was Canadian slang, so take off you hoser, eh?!
	3:10pm frannie: Afternoon!
	♥ 3:10pm northguineahills: Very poppy for Samara Lubelski!
	♥ 3:11pm djsheilab: Glen but also Luis: I didn't even realize that black connection!
	♥ 3:11pm djsheilab: Hi Frannie!
	♥ 3:12pm djsheilab: And welcome Ken from Hyde Park + Phillippe Bastille!
	3:13pm Rob Kopp: About black: yesterday I received my 5th single with the song Dressed in black and this is the best: The Pussycats.
	♥ 3:13pm The Oscar: Whooaaa that segue!
	♥ 3:13pm djsheilab: Kalbells are soundchecking with a cover of "Sophisticated Boom Boom." DYING!!!!
	3:13pm BabyBear: That was a rad transition!
	3:14pm Rob Kopp: Hopefully they're also playing it live
	3:14pm mzmzzm: our big Sis Moniee pleaded her portable laundry machine for her sanity... last wk
	♥ 3:14pm djsheilab: Thanks BabyBear + The Oscar! I did jump up + down in my bedroom last night when I played those two back to back :)
	3:15pm Rob Kopp: Please tell them the listeners love to hear it!
	♥ 3:16pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—I will do my best! I want you all to hear it too!
	♥ 3:18pm BronwynB: hey sheila and everyone :)
	♥ 3:18pm Passaic River Blues: Oh man, a live "Sophisticated Boom Boom" cover sounds lovely.
	♥ 3:19pm chris: hi, Sheila and boomboomers
	3:19pm Cecile: I have to agree!
	♥ 3:19pm djsheilab: Hey BronwynB, Passaic River Blues, + chris!
	♥ 3:20pm djsheilab: I'm gonna push for them to add "SBB" to their set-list. It's such a tease!
	♥ 3:22pm Dominick: Hello
	3:22pm Cecile: I have to agree!
	3:23pm ncjay: Christine song is very nice
	3:23pm d: Sheila, You've got a good groove going today!
	♥ 3:25pm Passaic River Blues: The vocalizations and horns are a large part of what makes Rubblebucket so good, so this Kalbells set is likely to be killer.
	♥ 3:25pm djsheilab: Thanks d! I'm feeling it BIG time! And I've got Kalbells soundchecking in front of me, which is definitely helping.
	♥ 3:31pm Michael 98145: from 1981? nice !
	3:32pm Yami: Hi Sheila, hi everyone :) can’t wait to hear kalbells
	3:32pm Cecile: Dame-Funk
	3:33pm ncjay: Duran Duran has always been wonderful and never let anyone tell you any differently, Sheila!
	3:34pm modchick65: I don't know what that means "Duran Duran and classy are oxymorons." Honestly, when you were a 12 year old girl growing up in Central Pennsylvania, their videos were the height of class, actually. No one I knew were sipping yachts in Caribbean or Mediterranean. But maybe that's just me.
	3:35pm Cecile: They were delightfully nouveau riche.
	♥ 3:35pm BronwynB: im antonio
	♥ 3:35pm The Oscar: Antonio Bender would be a pretty good stage name.
	♥ 3:36pm Carmichael: Heya Citizen Sheila and Boomers.
	3:36pm modchick65: Duran Duran were one of my inspirations to get out of that fucking place.
	♥ 3:36pm steveo: we are all antonio (hi sheila)
	♥ 3:38pm Michael 98145: what a fun track
	♥ 3:43pm djsheilab: I just posted a video of Kalbells doing Sophisticated Boom Boom on an Instagram story. My handle is djsheilab
	3:43pm Rob Kopp: The only Antonio in my record collection is Antonio Bribiesca, who recorded with Chavela Vargas
	3:44pm BabyBear: Can't wait for this Snail Mail album to some out!!!
	3:44pm ncjay: nice profile of Snail Mail in the NYT this week. I bought her EP after reading it
	3:45pm Rob Kopp: And when we're going to write the name differently (Anthonio) then I have more: Tonio K.
	♥ 3:47pm Michael 98145: Bessie !!
	♥ 3:48pm The Oscar: Antonio Margret?
	3:49pm Jocelyn: Ann Margret! My idol
	♥ 3:49pm Will from Seattle: listen to elvis trying to sound all cosmopolitan
	♥ 3:49pm frozen_peas: this song is so much fun
	♥ 3:50pm djsheilab: I was thinking it'd be fun to do a show filled with songs about men with unusual names. I'll need your help with that one! And more Antonio / Anthonio songs :)
	♥ 3:51pm frozen_peas: Not an unusual name but Andy by Les Rita Mitsouko is a great song
	3:53pm Rob Kopp: The Diana in the Kinks song Good day is Diana Dors
	♥ 3:53pm djsheilab: I have EXCELLENT news to report.....Kalbells are going to play Sophisticated Boom Boom!!!
	♥ 3:54pm Will from Seattle: Melvin by the Belles would be perfect for that. it's a parody of Gloria by them www.youtube.com...
	3:55pm Rob Kopp: Was just downloading Instagram, so that's not necessary anymore
	3:55pm Cecile: Andrei by L7
	♥ 3:56pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—Oh yes it is! Trust me :)
	3:56pm Cecile: this reminds me of the theme from Exodus. And an old singer's joke: There were some words man was not meant to write Some songs man was not meant to sing And this is one of them...
	♥ 3:56pm djsheilab: Will from Seattle—Totally! Melvin is perfect.
	3:56pm Cecile: Sing it to the tune of Exodus...
	3:57pm Anita in Morristown: Hi Sheila! Loved hearing Bessie Smith
	3:57pm kurty v: AMAZING set. im working and this is helping me jam!
	3:59pm Cecile: Hey this is a cover of France Gall's Eurovision winner!
	♥ 4:00pm djsheilab: Thanks Kurty V! + Anita in Morristown!
	♥ 4:02pm BennettCap: Groovy track.
	4:06pm battleaxe: Every Friday I'm listing the albums I've got to purchase on Sat. Thanxz a ton Sheila!!!
	4:06pm Jocelyn: I never find mugs or keychains with my name
	4:06pm Cecile: YES. I only found name stuff in Quebec City. And they had accent marks, but that's OK.
	♥ 4:07pm The Oscar: There's never an Oscar. Ever.
	♥ 4:07pm Phillippe Bastille: The baseball player Ubaldo Jimenez had fun with the name thing in a commercial a while back. Couldn't find an Ubaldo in the little bike license plates. He asked the cashier if he had anymore in the back.
	4:08pm Rob Kopp: SBB!
	♥ 4:08pm Passaic River Blues: Nice!
	♥ 4:08pm Devin B.: Boom Boom!
	♥ 4:08pm Mark Hurst: I love this song!
	♥ 4:09pm BronwynB: i couldn't even find name stuff in wales. i'll have to wait till i get to australia someday.
	♥ 4:09pm BronwynB: i guess the welsh assume there aren't any tourists named bronwyn
	♥ 4:09pm eyenoise: NICE COVER CHOICE, KALBELLS!
	4:12pm Rob Kopp: Do they have 2 keyboard players, bass and drums?
	♥ 4:13pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—Dat's right!
	4:16pm Rob Kopp: The vocals remind me a bit of Norwegian wood
	♥ 4:16pm Dano59: greetings all, really enjoying this much-needed sweetness @djsheilab
	4:16pm JakeGould: Hey Sheila! So is there name talk happening? Anyone else see that GQ trending baby name list. It’s amaizng! Jaxxon? Ledger? Ensley? Paisleigh? www.gq.com...
	4:17pm Jocelyn: Loving this so much
	♥ 4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I gotta fever for More Kalbells !! ...yeah I'll see myself out...
	4:20pm fp cassini: perth amboy n.j.?
	♥ 4:20pm chresti: I think Drooler is a good name
	♥ 4:21pm Dominick: This is lovely

	4:23pm Rob Kopp: Are they standing in the Joe Meek bathroom?
	4:24pm fp cassini: whoa, that kick drum
	♥ 4:24pm TDK60: Hello

	♥ 4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (pennywhistle I should think)
	♥ 4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (recorder?)
	4:27pm Rob Kopp: I think live this must be just the same as fun band Hinds
	♥ 4:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: I hope Sam Francisco made the list.
	4:27pm JakeGould: Shitty Flute?
	♥ 4:27pm TDK60: Maybe a flute-o-phone?
	4:28pm JakeGould: How about a comb kazoo?
	♥ 4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: : D
	♥ 4:29pm The Oscar: My GF is a preschool teacher, so I get to hear all the latest "in" names (at least as of 3-4 years ago). Turns out there's ALWAYS multiple Sophias.
	4:29pm iambasil: Hi SheilaB hey everyone hope everyone is good,happy friday TGIF!!!!!!!
	4:29pm Cecile: I want to name something Impala Ferrigno.
	♥ 4:29pm The Oscar: (Also Kalbells are totally rad, but you don't need me to tell you that).
	4:30pm thorsten: it sounds sooo good! is it possible to download the session afterwards?
	4:30pm Good Ol' Sleth: Such great, heart-warming sax
	♥ 4:31pm djsheilab: thorsten—The session will be available to download once it goes on the Free Music Archive. Otherwise you can listen to it in the SBB archives.
	♥ 4:32pm Passaic River Blues: OK, sold. To Bandcamp!
	♥ 4:32pm chresti: Impala is a perfect name. Ledger, on the other hand, makes me think Binder.
	♥ 4:32pm Mark Hurst: Amazing live set!
	4:33pm thorsten: thank you, sheila.
	♥ 4:33pm chresti: Yay!
	♥ 4:39pm northguineahills: Ok, finally back at my desk, tretastic set, Kalbells!
	♥ 4:43pm Passaic River Blues: Nina Simone 100, indeed.
	♥ 4:44pm chresti: I once worked with someone who was named after the brand of sheet that her mother gave birth on
	4:45pm Rob Kopp: When I did the 5-day songwriting course by Ray Davies in 2011, he asked us (16 students) to write something about your hero. Nobody wrote about a band or artist. All of us named a family member or friend!
	4:45pm Cecile: In my experience: The Bee Gees were the one disco group it was OK to like, and Fleetwood Mac were OK to like before Buckingham-Nicks, but it was OK to like Lindsay Buckingham because he was a great guitar player. Weird times.
	♥ 4:45pm northguineahills: I picked up Fleet Mac's "Tusk" in 2003, and fell immediately in love, and asked myself why it took me so long to listen to them. (then again, I didn't like pop until 98.
	4:46pm Rob Kopp: 2001
	4:46pm Cecile: Wow, Rob, that must have been a great experience.
	4:47pm Rob Kopp: It was. Will never forget that week.
	4:48pm Rob Kopp: Ray Davies is still doing those songwriting courses once a year!
	♥ 4:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not the image many have of Ray, I think. That staggers me!!
	♥ 4:52pm sibeliuss: ahh yet another amazing interview! -- really great show
	♥ 4:53pm chresti: Most enjoyable, thank you
	4:53pm Adrian in London and The Contessa: Hello Sheila, wonderful Kalbells and Boomers. We’re in s Spiegeltent in Norwich, having just seen a show. Will listen in the archive. Love to you all! Xx
	4:54pm fp cassini: i took an electronic music class in SF with an afro-amer gal who named her son Tyvek, after the building wrap
	♥ 4:55pm Michael 98145: woo
	4:57pm Cecile: This would be a Midnight Love fave if it were still around.
	4:57pm Yami: Omg I’m so glad you like like this song just as much as I do @sheilab <3
	4:57pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: I'm eating breakfast now and debating, should I add a dash of honey to my milk...?
	4:58pm Rob Kopp: A few months before I was going to that songwriting course in 2001, they announced a Ray Davies gig in The Netherlands in the week before that course. And then a gig in the week after. And then IN that week. I feared the course would be cancelled because of that Dutch tour, but instead the tour was cancelled. Reason: Ray was too busy with a CD. I knew better. Instead of performing for 16000 fans he preferred to teach 16 students.
	4:59pm Cecile: Who is singing backup? Brian Wilson?
	5:00pm fp cassini: great anecdote rob— thanx
	♥ 5:00pm northguineahills: @fp cassini: that's actually a pretty cool name. Zarathustra help my offspring if I decide to have kids w/ my wife.... (although I'm partial to Portuguese names for some odd reason, even though I'm a wasp and my wife is Mexican)
	♥ 5:00pm djsheilab: Cecile—Producer Tommy LiPuma.
	5:01pm Cecile: wow. Uncanny resemblance.
	5:01pm Yami: @early morning in Seoul, yes it’s delicious
	5:01pm Rob Kopp: @Cecile: Brian Wilson IS singing on the title song of Dirty computer (2018) by Janelle Monae
	5:02pm Cecile: I also offer up the names Sampson McWasher, Waxahatchee Omnibulous, and Smergogenic.
	♥ 5:02pm djsheilab: Yami!!!!
	♥ 5:02pm djsheilab: EarlyMorningInSeoul—Always add honey!
	5:03pm Cecile: I should listen to that. All the drag queens I know give it a big thumbs up.
	5:03pm Rob Kopp: and a beat: Honeybeat
	♥ 5:04pm northguineahills: @Yami: If I didn't see the "@" above, I would think you were godzillaing South Korea.
	5:04pm fp cassini: i gotta focus on work, so it's back to my fave french female music maker: Éliane Radigue
	5:06pm JakeGould: @northguineahills: What if Godzilla showed up during the Korean peace talks? Now that would be something!
	♥ 5:07pm Michael 98145: is this our new natl anthem ?
	♥ 5:07pm northguineahills: eliane radigue is a fave of mine!
	♥ 5:08pm northguineahills: @Jake: It would still do less damage then if Trump meets Kim in Singapore. (Hoping for a broken clock situation).
	5:10pm ncjay: Seamless segue, there, Sheila!
	♥ 5:11pm djsheilab: Two curses in a row! Yikes!
	♥ 5:11pm djsheilab: Thanks ncjay!
	♥ 5:11pm northguineahills: Tracey Thorn! I too, fight like a girl!
	5:11pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: good catches there!
	5:11pm Rob Kopp: I heard shit
	♥ 5:11pm Michael 98145: wow & flutter
	5:13pm Rob Kopp: Do you really have to turn the volume down (or bleep)? So you have to write down: at 0:21 she's singing @#$ and on 1:43 %^&*
	♥ 5:15pm Michael 98145: ( there is a lot more obscenity going on in the US than just language on the radio :)
	♥ 5:15pm djsheilab: Exactly—Rob Kopp.
	♥ 5:15pm djsheilab: Michael 98145—You can say that again!
	♥ 5:16pm Michael 98145: i might do that :)
	♥ 5:16pm Phillippe Bastille: Ok, I'm definitely hearing Yanny
	5:17pm Rob Kopp: It's not that bad, I think. As far as I can remember this is the first time Sheila turned the volume down.
	♥ 5:17pm northguineahills: Well there goes Sheila's dump button allocation for May ;)
	♥ 5:17pm chris: fcc rules are soooo freakin' out of date. sigh.
	5:19pm JakeGould: FCC = Effing Cautious Conservatives
	♥ 5:20pm WO Town Wick: That "Screwed" song was spicy! Single of the Week is great. Thanks for another heck of a set Sheila B
	5:20pm still b/p: That outfit on the Afet cover....I'd wear that to bed in the winter.
	5:23pm Rob Kopp: Dutch song writer Annie M.G. Schmidt wrote a song about the plant Fuchsia. The refrain went: who likes to have a loot of the fuch-fuch-fuchsia. Everybody was singing loudly along with the song, not realising what they were singing in English.
	5:24pm drewo: Yay Sheila! Yay Tucson!!! We escaped NYC eight years ago for Tucson - no looking back! Lots of good music to hear and see here - like Natalia LaFourcade this weekend! (Thanks for introducing me to her music).
	♥ 5:25pm Michael 98145: ( one click away www.instagram.com... )
	♥ 5:26pm common: sheila b. all! happy Friday! beeeeeersies!
	5:26pm DMZ: What was that video you mentioned? Ravenna Honey?
	♥ 5:28pm djsheilab: DMZ—Raveena's "Honey"
	5:30pm DMZ: Thanks!
