Hello hello hello

Allo!

yo yo yo, nice song to start off the setlist. This song has made its rounds on WPRB :P

It's so driving, gets me bopping

Same!!! I played it on my first show :)

(dj.jd here hehe)

Hey dj.jd! I enjoyed your show today!!!

Thanks :D Looking forward to yours!

yell-0 Pethie!

helllloooooo

splendid moniker

Will probably shorten it back up, but it's lasted a whole week!

I'm honored!

HIYA

WOAH

HElloo there, Mike Abel!!!

Thank you for listening!

I am enjoying

I'm very glad! You taught me everything I know about enjoying music!

ditto

Thanks, Pethie, for "Born To Be Blue" -- a classic jazz ballad with entrancing chord changes -- as sung by the great Nancy Wilson. Ray Charles also recorded a genius version, which is where I first heard it. Keep the wonderful tracks comin'!

Thank you so much, Richard! I will check out Ray's version. Nancy has such a powerful voice, i'm a big fan.

Digging the Jane Weaver

Hi Pethie & Co.! Golly, I love this new funky 1-2-strut Jane Weaver! I really like her new direction on this album.

Yes! She's fabulous!

Agreed! And her other styles and iterations were great too. I'm always impressed when an artist stretches herself/himself to incorporate new styles and just nails it! Jane Weaver just nails it!!

I'm still honestly trying to figure her out, and it's been a lot of fun tuning into her different sounds. I agree, a great feat when folks move through genres and moods.

wow, this version of Everybody's Talkin!

Claudine gets it. She really does.

WoW! What a lovely euro-country style version of the great Fred Neil's classic "Everybody's Talkin' " by Claudine Longet. Never heard it. Was released in 1970, so just at the time the song was used as the theme for the multi-Oscar winning film "Midnight Cowboy." Thanks for that one, too!

Richard-I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I'm a big fan of Claudine's breathy-frenchy style of covers. And the fiddling in that one really tickled me.

Oui, beaucoup!

(Don't ask me for more French, please, I had to look that up via Google ... LOL)

oh la la

thanks for this one

I dedicate it to you!

was listening to this with one of my kids last night...so good!

Yes, cross-generational...I listened to this with my dad when I was a kid.

i suppose we hammered this one into your head

Oh yes, and i'm the better for it

Liked the claudine, we’ll overlook her killing her boyfriend:(

Mark, you always have the celeb dirt!

Oh yes, it was a glamorous crime, didn't it take place at a Swiss ski chalet?

haha claudine was a great singer / andy Williams loved her / spider sabich - a champion skier was her late bf

actually took place in aspen / she got off pretty lite

When your name is Spider, you have to expect crazy misadventures

yes Name spider 🕷 might be a harbinger of ur life’s fate :)

If this show was live, I would have dedicated the Hendrix song to Mike Abel, but alas, I recorded it this past weekend. Someday I will be live again.

and if anyone interested looks like they just release a documentary about it couple weeks ago

Oh! I'd definitely check it out. Thanks, Mark!!

one last claudine fact; snl around 77 did a vicious skit about the incident/ i think they had to apologize & the clip is no longer available/ called it the claudine ski tournament

Oh! I have never heard of that. I only recall the scandal about Charles Rocket dropping an f-bomb and getting fired, back in the early 80s.

charles rocket/ wow is that a name & incident that i haven’t heard in decades / just looked him up didn’t realize how he died :(

So sad.

Tussel has arrived to cheer us up though.

Gah! I always misspell their name.

lovely couple music hours as always :)

Thank you very much, Mark!

Thank you to everyone tuning in today! Have a fabulous day.

Pethie! I've been tuned in! Thanks!

Hey Krista! Good to see you here! Thank you!

Thanks for another awesome show & chats.

Thank you, Richard!
