Hey Renny enjoying the show! I just learned that sometimes, all you need is to hear I Ain't Got Nobody and turn it way up. And maybe realize, that you do got somebody after all!

2:44 PM, March 3rd, 2021
Renny G (host)
Ha! Ha! Louis Prima is food for the soul.

2:46 PM, March 3rd, 2021

Terry M.
Love your show, as usual.

2:53 PM, March 3rd, 2021
Renny G (host)
Thanks Terry. I used to love your show too. You were the one who taught me the value of good funk.

2:57 PM, March 3rd, 2021
Renny G (host)
And your mixes used to be sublime.

You had me stumped with that cover of I'm Moving zon by Steppenwolf. I have everything bybyhemxand had to look it up as I was unfamiliar with them doing this song. It's from a reissue of Gold, that added more tracks to fill out the 2nd cd. I'm Moving On is actually one of 3 John Kay solo tracks (from 1974 believe) included on the 2nd disc, which explains why I didn't know it.

3:37 PM, March 3rd, 2021
Terry M.
Ah yes, well I loved being a show off.

3:46 PM, March 3rd, 2021
Renny G.
Yeah, I screwed up. I looked it up and fixed it on the playlist but it was too late re-record that rap.

3:49 PM, March 3rd, 2021
Renny G.
No shit, Terry. I can remember you recording yourself on the reel to reels and then playing it back and having a conversation with yourself. It was like having Twin Terries.

3:50 PM, March 3rd, 2021
Renny G.
I double checked Jeb, and it was recorded in 1972 and released on his first solo album, "Forgotten Songs & Unsung Heroes", after forming Steppenwolf.

3:54 PM, March 3rd, 2021
Jeb
Yes, on this John Kay' solo record https://www.discogs.com/John-Kay-Forgotten-Songs-Unsung-Heroes/master/380954 I wasn't sure of the date. I should get a copy. Thanks!
