Short songs day! I won't even consider giving you a call! No time to talk.
Wanted to say, I'm enjoying the show (listening to the Dec. 23 show live right now).
About the song you played: "Sad Little Pigeon" by Four Jacks & A Jill - you said you played it as an LP cut. I have it on a 45 (B-side of "Hey Mister" - RCA 9645) and there's something funny about the 45 - they misspelled Pigeon on the label, as "Pidgeon"! I don't know if that's also how it was spelled on the LP, or if it was somehow intentional. I don't see why it would be - unless it's about actor Walter Pidgeon!
Keep up the great work, and Happy Holidays!
