Recherché Fri Dec 2 with Readie Righteous on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

Happy Friday, Righteous Ones! Chat is where it's at!

So pleased to be here tonight! Had a doozy!

Happy Friday Readie!

Hello! I played a little guitar once. Really short strings and neck....

Hi Addie! Glad to see you - Organize is the word of the day, eh?!!!

That sounds like a lovely trip indeed.

Breathe deep... relax the mind.. feel the hot stones and scented oils permeate the skin....

Heya Addie!

Addie, I hope it wasn't TOO too bad, and that you can shake it off tonight on Recherché!

I am guessing the wind chimes got so cold the other night they were shaking and ringing themselves.

Hi Roffle! Back atcha, friend!!

Heyyyyyy Readie! Greetings for the very first time from my new location North of Doylestown!!!

Brian LOL! Actually it's a big ol' Alvarez, but it gets the job done!

Hear those sirens Alan? What a din

It was a lovely trip, Roffle, relaxing and fun, riding the lil' choo choo with James, who's 4...sweet! Many cool moments!

@Brian- you have the correct zen 'tude!

Nice!

@ Brian: no sirens here, just northof the bypass...

Ahh yeah they were more Dublin area

Hi Alan! so you've moved, eh? Doylestown is very nice!

@ Brian: But last night I could see bright Red Mars rising in the northeast...

All those areas up there in Bucks County- great! No light pollution?

@ Readie: Yes the stressful move is over, had Fios put in just yesterday and it WORKS!!!

That is really good news, Alan! Gotta have internet!

@ Readie: Yes and a great big horizon, no tall buildings, but ccccooollllllllddddd!!

@ Readie: Actually gotta have WPRB!!

BIG SKY, eh, Alan?!?!

Alan, you speak monumental TRUTH there!

@ Readie:Yep, Big Red Mars rising and can actually see the sun set..

Happy for you, Alan, sounds like you're happy there! Congrats on getting through the move!

Sounds cool Alan. A nice latteral move with perks. Solid!

@ Readie: ...And a Big Thakks to you and all the WPRB DJ's and chatters that gave me a weekly break from the insanity of the move...

oops. Thanks I meant...

@Alan- never a doubt that WPRB is here for you!

Oops, stepped away for a moment to make food. Yes Readie! Union, yes! I’m so psyched.

It was very warm in Delaware by the beaches...a storm closed the public beach for a time...erosion, as New Jerseyans are certainly familiar with!

@Addie- I am psyched for you! Come from a long line of union members! As I was in many iterations of employment! Best of luck with everything!

Like this Japanese psych guitar rock here

@Brian- this album is from their 2001 sessions

originally

Simply loved that last set!

@Roffle- glad you dug it! All new music!

Christine's blues piano right here

She really leans into it too. Not the first thing that comes to my mind about her. Got thinking a bit different about her. :)

Yeah, really, she went to blues right after her classical playing

Hello everyone!

Last night DJ Mike Lupica made a remark that there is a certain sadness in her voice...

It looks like I only missed 1 7/8 Christine McVie songs

Hey Rob! Hello! Welcome!

Hello Rob!

@Alan - yes, I agree, she also, if you looik at her pictures, there are fewer "smiley" ones by far.

Hallo Readie and Alan!

I once heard that one of the things that makes a great singer is an easily identifiable voice, which Christine certainly has.

@Alan, she certainly has. You can pick it up in her backing vocals too...

Evenin' Readie!

Good recording this. Still rocking after Peter left.

Hey Bo! How are you? Happy Friday - good to have you here!

@Brian- yeah, I love this

Hangin' like wet clothes🤗

This set is AMAZING. I had no clue about chicken shack

Can you play Franny by Magic City Hippies?? It's my fav song of the week!

Hi Louis! Welcome! It's all Christine McVie for the rest of the show tonight, I can certainly get it for ya next week!

Hey Jimboo!!! Glad to bring it to ya! Welcome!

AHHH!

Hi Jennifer- you made it! Welcome!

@ Readie: All Christine!! YES!! I found out that WPRB comes in Steady and Strong on my FM stereo from my new location..Yeah! Turnin' it UP!!

i just remembered, lol

THIS

@Alan- SOOO glad to hear it!

@ Readie Righteous (host) Thank you so deeply for the Chris McVie finale. Righteous indeed!

Wow, I haven't heard this spare song in yonks. It is so lovely

@Bo- right? Nice and sweet!

And yay Alan!

She had a very unique type voice.

Thank you Readie! I'm looking forward to it. Love this Christine set!

Blow off the week with this one for sure fellow chatters...

Thanks Louis! So glad you could stop by!!!

Is John McVie still around?

I'm certainly here for the rest of the show

@Bo- so true!

Jennifer, yes

Yes, Jen, and I just found out- I share a birthday wth John - Nov. 26, who knew?

oh wow

Happy late birthday Readie!

Thank you, Rob!

This piano...emotion...depth...voice......

What's a mystery to me is that this band only ever had one No.1 Hit Single!

...and a certain longing, sadnes...

huh? only 1?

Shows a little bit about the music biz, @Bo!

@ Ambrose: It's called corporate profit...

"Dreams" was the one & only #1....

hard to belive

@ Ambrose: ... and it's why we desperately need Independent Radio..

@Alan- you said it!!!

@Jennifer, yup, Albatross which incidentally didn't contain any vocals.

Was Albatross #1 in the UK? Dreams was in the US

@Readie, indeed!

Readie, I believe it was #1

*in the UK

@Readie it was to my knowledge.

I know this tune!

Readie, Albatross was #1 in the UK when it was released and when it was re-released in 1973 it hit #2 in the UK

@ Readie Righteous (host) I'm delighted that Christine McVie received a major New York Times obituary and I got a big smile from this tidbit: Everyone knows that the also hugely talented Stevie Nicks was beloved by her multitudinous as "the Welsh Witch"; but it was Chris who was the daughter of a professional psychic! Think about that one! :-))

*released in 1968

Yes, Bo- Albatross was #1 in the UK & #4 in the states

Wow, that's a mic drop Richard!

@Richard - food for thought, thanks!

Albatross was #4 in the "Bubbling Under Hot Singles" chart https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albatross_(instrumental). I don't remember hearing it on AM radio at the time (I was 10 & 11)

How do we get three syllables in the word Hold? CHristine can!!!!

@Readie, strange thing about Albatross, my English Teacher, (Ms. Lavery) brought it in and played it in Class, I always thought that bizarre but I certainly never forgot it, I was 10!

... so it must have been bubbling under or simply never played in the DC AM radio market

@Bo- what a coooool story!

I thought it was " all over me" lol. Its just Hold? lol

Yep, Jen, I always thought it was "Hold onto me"!

Version!

I know this one too

Yes, Rob- you called it! VERSION!

@ Readie: Southerners get two syllables a lot: There =Theyah, Here = Heyah,

Lindsey on banjo!

@Alan- yes, my mom was from the South, but usually two syllables out of one, not three!! LOL!!!

This is a great rendition.

Lupica played this last night and the tune stuck with me the whole day, It MOVES!

Right, Bo!

Lindsey did Holiday Road from National Lampoons I belive

Did Mike play this version?

Readie: I dunno...

@ Readie Righteous (host) YES! I was just about to comment about Buckingham on banjo. He's a hell of a fingerpicker on that and guitar, too.

Mile Lupica?

@ Ambrose: Mike Lupica..

Mike Lupica played the 'regular' version of "Say You Love Me", not the one we just heard

Evenin

Tandy! Hi!!

Thanks Rob...I was wonderin'!

Hi TAndy!

Christine w/Stevve Winwood on vox & synth

Steve

This is Christine with her nephew Dan on backing vox and guitar

Top Show Readie Righteous, thanks a million!
