Free to Be, Diana? I love those songs so much! I played the "When We Grow Up" Michael Jackson clip for 24 hours straight the day he died.

Diana:
Yes Free To Be! I played that album so much as a kid. Recently, it’s been a way to connect with new people who also heard that growing up.

Brinley:
Call me crazy... always thought this would have been perfect for 'Distant Light'-era Hollies. It's practically made for Allan Clarke's voice...

Becky Ebenkamp:
I think it's pretty good! Pretty faithful. Is Paul's version seven minutes long? I don't usually play songs that long, but made an exception for this.
7:29pm
Brinley:
Just looked online - there's also a 'Golden Hits of the Monkees' cup... Dolenz, Jones, Boyce and Hart
7:30pm
The Mellons:
Yes Becky please show the album art! Sorry my browser is having a weird issue today. We announced the new LP & vinyl last week. Brinley - thanks so much! So glad you are digging it. Ask for it at your local record shop, or head to Bandcamp to snag a copy if you please. :)

I saw The Screamers last night. Or more like The Screamer. One original member supported by some fans who wanted to do a cover band.

"Fair Game" by "The Like"
L.A.: spinoff band- Nice as Fuck - I agree with that
Wow! Just looked up the 45, have heard the tracks but somehow never looked up the details. That lot are all over that thing!

Becky Ebenkamp:
I was wondering if you are doing a studio show the Tuesday I'm gonna be out there. The date is June 9, I think. I'm going to miss the FMU prom by ONE DAY!

7:45pm
Becky Ebenkamp:
Robbie, I didn't know WM had any other god songs.
I kinda didn't either. That Freddie Cannon song that preceeds it is actually WM, but they abandoned it after the MJ single, so Freddie used their backing track and sang on it!
Great 45. The b-side (What's On Tonight) may even be better.

7:51pm
Becky Ebenkamp:
For any DJs who might be chatting or lurking: Can you please type your artist & song names using capitalized first letters? A lot of the songs in the database are not capitalized because others originally typed them that way. When I capitalize my songs they are not recognized.

This is where my little talk ab out Footsee was to go.
7:54pm
Brinley:
Glad there's love out there for Bill (and his album!) - well overdue for appreciation and a proper reissue... Whoever stuck When Everybody's Here on that Cowsills 20th Century Masters comp - bringing it into the digital domain - deserves an award...

Becky Ebenkamp:
The Globetrotters could have done a decent version, but they had "Marathon Mary" and a full stable of Brill Bldg songwriters.

Previously I knew nothing of Kenny Laguna's career prior to Joan Jett. Now I know very little
