Top o' the mornin' to yuz! Feed the chickens, milk the cow...Recherché is NOW!!!

I am never up at this hour for the most part, but what a treat!

ohai

good morning sunshine

Drop D tuning was made for the weekends.

Hello! I am pleasantly surprised to see y'all here! Kudos to the early risers!!

Hi Roff, Tim, & TAndy!! How are yuz!

Long time no see!!!

Snow on the ground and music in the air, the state of the state is way okay!

My hair is longer also since last we chat.

I'll drink (decaf) to that

Just had an espresso with loads of hot milk...what do you call it?Messpresso?

my nails are longer, too

when you said you were going to be here at 7, I was all in

Cool, Tim!!!

after telling you how your voice was being amplified by my guitar on the wall

can't forget it!

I love a good sounding board, Tim!

@Tim, Acoustic or micro-phonic single coil that you leave plugged in for unkown reasons. Cool either way though.?

Beautiful start to the morning. I envy those waking up to this.

@Roff- 🤯

martin 000-28 hung next to a tiny guild 12 fret, not sure which, maybe both

Hiya TAndy! how you doin'!

TAndy, you are the master of wake ups dude!

Hoping to get some good sleep for once today lol

@Tim...ah yes a Martin, of course...my Alvarez is in the other room at the undisclosed locale.

Liberace's got nothin' on THIS Baby!

Love that Tim! Awesome!

Wave of Northern light. Now that's a chandelier.

Welcome, Sun!

@Roff- you said it!

what cool stuff is on the schedule today, Bebés?

I swear I saw a comment re: seeing George Harrison live at the concert for Bangla Desh, but I can't find it now, did I dream that?

That would be even more rare than someone going to Woodstock. Wow!

Anyway, it's cool- I saw George and Ravi Shankar at that supposedly ill-fated American tour back in the day...I swear those reviewers weren't there...it was GREAT.

Exactly, just because it isn't uber popular in no way means it's bad by any means.

So true, Roff. Some people just wanna hate. I loved every minute of it.

Everyone kept putting expectations on the ex-Beatles.

I wish I was there Readie. It would be magnificent for all the right reasons.

So jealous. lol

When I first got the All Things Must Pass LP(s), I was astonished. George was a force...

@Roff, yep, I'll never forget it.

My friends sister took him to see the Beatles at Shea Stadium. He still has the ticket subb. :)

LOVE this song to bits <33333333

Oh wow, Roff! So great...what an exciting trip...my best friend was there, and yes I am still jealous... we were in love with Macca, from the git-go...lol

@TAndy, so smoooooth!!! Right?

It took me a while to get into George, but once I did I was just so glad he was here in this world in his peculiar position.

This song always makes me want to go on a peaceful raft ride down the delaware

@Roff- have you seen Scorsese's doc "Living in the Material World"?

@TAndy- a beautiful image for sure!

(Or perhaps lounging on an inner tube)

No, but it just got bumped to the top of the list!

Roff, you will love it!

And I credit George for broadening exposure to Indian music. His songs were my first exposure, and changed my perspective

Good morning, Sir.

Good morning folks

@DTO - that's great- I agree wholeheartedly - my young musical sensibilities were shaped by that exposure to the sitar, wow- a game changer!!

Morning Rainbow, with these butter sounds

Thank's ǝʌɐꓷ, you just brought it home for me. Too good.

Ossy! I summoned you!! I knew it! Welcome!

The Stylistics People Make the World Go Round, they played that at the beginning of one of Spike Lee's movies named "Crooklyn"!

@Ossy- I haven't seen that one- must check it out!

Crooklyn! OMG, least we forget. lol

Readie - Saw on Patty's IG page this morning, that singer Marlene Shaw passed away that sings "Run Away Boy" which I occasionally hear on Butter . Beautiful day theme song

Good morning! Thanks for the jamz!

Mornin', Buck Wild! it's my pleasure!

@Ossy- thx for keeping us up-to-date on all things Patty!

sun's up, salt's spread, snow's glistening, and now time to kick back

TAndy- that's abou the size of it! Glistening bling snow!

*about*

Readie - Cheers to over 40 years on the airwaves and being the Auntie of Pop Culture!

@DTO - I can see the appeal of early morning radio-making...it's cool!

@Ossy - a legend to be sure!

Ungodly hours.

That reminds me this past Thanksgiving, I saw her on 6abc philadelphia news in showing a news anchor how to make her homemade peach cobbler and looks delicous!!

This is when they woke the slaves.

It's nice to watch the world wakin' up...

@Ossy- now I'm really hungry, and it's not even time for elevensies!

It's good juju for sure sometimes.

Sometimes

for some reason, I see elephants dancing during this song...

too much espresso

yummi! https://6abc.com/miss-patty-jackson-warm-peach-cobbler-the-dish-thanksgiving-recipes/14089126/

Ossy, thx for that link! YUMYUM

Before the espresso, it can be a bit dismal though, but way to ride that pony Readie! lol

Yeah ROFF!

beep boopbeep!

Yeah, the Cyrkle toured with the Beatles...

Readie - As lovely as the peach cobbler smells! 💛🧡🍑🥧

Red Rubber Ball is a weird one off classic.

A perfectly crafted pop song imho

Ossy has mastered the olfactory!

@Ossy - I can smell it in my imagination!

I think I'll make chocolate chip cookies after the show...

Readie and Roffle - LOOOL

Will likely make pancakes and cheesy eggs shortly!

And Ossy- it takes a LOT of BUTTER to make choco-chips

Devastatingly nice cookie agenda.

OOOOH! pancakes! with blueberries!

Pancakes and cheesy eggs! YUM!

I have frozen blueberry's. I am feeling inspired, but going back to bed is also kinda on my list this morning. lol

Oh yeah Readie, LOADS of butter like making biscuts and cinnabon!

Frozen blubberies - delicious, especially with pancakes!

Readie, what did you mean when you said "Red Rubber Ball" was cowritten by the "other" Paul Simon?

OMGosh Ossy, I have a couple of those blenders that you can put in a large glass and I love to throw the berries in and smoothie out. :)

@David Shortell - summoning you to the chat! it worked! Yes- the Other Paul Simon, separate from Garfunkel..LOL!!!

@Roff- I gave up my blender when I moved...I regret that...but you know how it is when you're moving!

The other Garfunkel. lol

Roffle - Love making smoothies with all kinds of fruits, especially when packed with mixed fruit. Made a grape smoothie yesterday!

Can even make jam out of them via a bread maker machine!

Tell 'em RUTH!

A grape smoothie I have never had...red or green grapes, Ossy?

I have left so much behind is my moves. Over and over. A few blenders now that I think about it. What a ride.

@Roff- and a vintage harvest gold Crock Pot -Wish I still had that thing...

Simon & Garfunkel can be heard singing "Red Rubber Ball" live on their CD box set "Old Friends".

Morning, love this

Readie - They were kinda blue colored that looks very similar to blueberries

Grape smoothie sounds awesome! Wow, forgot about the crock pots! Having a moment here. lol

@David, I can recall seeing them in New York City singing that one...great show

@Rob F- hiya! and welcome!

☕️

coffee coffee!

droppin' it like it's hot...go Teddy

okay...

The snow is a lovely sort of morning orange out there. Nice..

Cause it's a Philly Thing from Pendegrass!

@Ossy- you know it, brother!

a Philly jawn!

morning orange! AWWWW...BABY!

On the 6abc 2022 thanksgiving and christmas parade, other singer named Thelma Houston sang her version as well!

Yes! Love Thelma!

go bassman

Snow is so much prettier than the dirty brown earth usually outside the window....

Makes the day brighter with the white coloring, for real!

We waited a lonnnng time for the snow, didn't we?

We did

Feels good

shake your booty boyz n' girlz!

Such a friendly snow too

oh yezzzzz

Many thanks for the show this morning Readie :)

Good morning Readie! This show has been great! I've been listening since you played The Wedding Present :-D

Thanks for the wakeup Readie! Always nice when you are around. Have a lovely day!

Thanks, Readie. I'm at the barge, ready to take over at 9:00 🙏🏼

OK, DTO! Have a great Sangeet!!!!

Hi Rob! nice to have you on board!

Stay peachy patty butter Readie, and this close with Philly's gal, Hyman with this everyday airwaves song!

Love y'all! thx for keepin' me comp'ny!
