jerry i had a dream Wednesday night with i'm your captain (closer to home) by Grand Funk, but it was "We're getting closer to our goal!"

@Freddie, you are making radio (and biking) history! 🚲 🎙 📡

Hey was Freddie's voice clear on the broadcast?

As a bell

Loud and clear! 💎

Esoterica, I love that dream! Grand Funk from my Dorm Days! Love it!

Thanks Brian, Christine

Hello!

Hey Commie, how are you?

That is awesome Esoterica! Love that song

Doing well! On my way to an outdoor office party (not picnic)

Listeners should contribute money just because you came up with the name Commie Francis!

Hey Guelo

Dana came up with it!! She named me. But yes they should.

Ha! Yes!!

Commie, will the party b fun?

That trio was hot 🔥

Definitely hot. Liking the new music

Hey Rob F

Valley forge

Hello all in the chat!

Wow Duke and Willie. Awesome

Missed it earlier. Hi Esoterica

Why was Willie Nelson your first concert?

Nelson brought the pot!

Sounds like Mok

RS, makes total sense!

hi rob!

Willie 's got passion.

Hi Bo! What's the craic?

@esoterica! Fir tree, Friday! You would think that's what happens with loggers in the northwest before they cut for the weekend..

Hi Christine! Just taking in all this great jazz, WOW!😲

hi Roffle! haha yes, reminds me of the Doug Fir Lounge in Portland

Would love to spend the day in Portland. Sigh. I miss some cities for sure.

Are we talking about Portland Maine?

@Jerry my dad was a big fan. My whole family went. I think I was 13

Will they take an older guys UPENN ID at that event as student ID? lol

Why not?

Portland Or.

Mok, nice story!

Selecta Jerry lurking?

S. Jerry "floats"

maybe some bidis will draw him out🚬

oooo forgot. Femi Kuti at the Mann. 35$ GA tickets. I think its July

July 16 Femi Kuti & The Positive Force featuring Mádé Kuti & DJ Oluwafemi

Wow!

yeah. Be there or be square.

Yeah we want to hit that Femi show. I hear he really brings the production... musicians , dancers the whole works.

@Mok, thanks for the info.

Christine, did you go to the Thursday night concert?

Loved the Adam O'Farrill track

@Jerry, I wanted to go, but my plans changed a couple hours prior. I went to the concert in December and it was fantastic.

wow RIP Neal Adams. comic book artist master. ☹️

What did he draw, Mok?

he reinvigorated Batman.

Was he on the the dark Batman team?

https://tinyurl.com/2p82aend

guy was a legend. Sad day.

Last one into Jerry's room, put a towel under the door.

Bonnie has a great voice. Love it

Party was ok

Or light incense.

Mom, you can't come in! Stop banging on the door!

My husband informed me that i was praised on the radio <3

Of course you were!

Not only do you do a great and interesting show, but you are generous as well.

"incense"

Thanks Jerry! I just love giving DJs that donation thrill

It works every time!

But you are def generous!

Brian, are you playing air guitar?

Here's one for Selecta

These 2 were written by others but she did write and co write 4 out of the 10 songs. Love So Strong written by Toots Hibbert! Had a great tape of her live on the radio early 70s. All acoustic. Freebo on bass.

*These 3

My dad went to high school with Bonnie raitt btw

Where was that?

I forget the name, a Quaker school in NY

Oakwood friends school

Ry Cooder is a national treasure.

Now THIS one I will be air guitaring yes! So glad they paid tribute to the greats Sonny & Brownie!

This album and the Bonnie Raitt are crazy great.

My dad went to his high school reunion and her boyfriend showed my dad where he wrote "thanks for letting me borrow your girlfriend" in his yearbook. He claims he doesn't know what he meant by that

Sounds good to me! Couldn't hurt!

Reunited Taj & Ry! Way back they were in a band Rising Sons

Amazing knowledge, Brian

🔑 ☝🚫🔒

Love to be in a room w them not just for the playing but the stories. Ry spins a great yarn

That describes this album

Yeah i loved when that unreleased Rising Sons cd was issued back in the 90s. Fun record

I know about it, never heard it

I kin dig it.

Appropriate for Jerry's Room members

Was chatting the other day about how Ry does a great Capt Beefheart impression. Saw some UK documentary on YouTube and Ry had some of the best parts. Spent a wild 15 minutes in Beefheart land he did. Wisely left that band and did a great solo career. Loved Ry's playing on the 1st Beefheart record!

What a great story, @Jerry. 💜Love Joan Osborne!

WOW Jerry, didn't see this coming, great story, love this lady's voice!

I bought a homemade small press CD of hers that night which she signed, still have it. She's one of my favorites, Ambrose!

Her voice gives me chills at times.

I'm with you. Her voice is her.

NICE!

Alright Ambrose, shake it

🔥

Thank you, Carol!

Yeah Neil really dropped a bunch of unreleased live stuff lately and over the past 10-20 years. BTW this Cabterbury Live was already released in 2008. But no matter... it's great!

I can't type today ha

Thanks, Jerry, for the great music today. Kudos to you for another excellent drive show!

✨Carol is awesome!✨

and now i tear up lol

There is a town in North Ontario Dream comfort memory to spare

His archive site and app are a fun design. The File Cabinet set up. Loves to share all he can with the fans. Always kept the tape rolling and documented his eras

These past three hours flew like a cuckoo on the wing. Thank you Jerry & Freddie!

Haha, you've said that before in other ways!

You can get Canterbury on cd btw. It dovetails into the larger box set Archive volumes.. it would take a whole new internet to explain it here ... ha ... These solo acoustic shows are great. But me I miss the Horse with Poncho. Glad Nils Lofgren got the job tho. Great replacement!

I do repeat myself.

But you always repeat good things

Ma, send me money now...WPRB needs it 💸

Yeah this was a great week+ of radio wow ... not done yet!

Great show Jerry ...I repeat!

Thanks, Freddie, too!

Freddie is FAB

true, bri!

oh yes, arthur lee

...you too Freddie, thank you!

love love love

Freddie thanks you, was really terrific

L💘V E

Arthur does Jimi! Great cover

Arthur and Hendrix kindred spirits totally

agree, bri

Thank you each of you
