Re: A to Z
I guess one thing that makes it "random" is that KFOG plays stuff that is typically *not* in their standard rotation. Which frankly (of course) pisses me off, because if it makes the cut for A to Z, then why can't they play it whenever?
Some "surprising" cuts that I liked hearing:
Oasis -- All Around The World (I had forgotten what the rest of this song sounded like thanks to AT&T's incessant playing of only the title line for their jingle.)
Mindy Smith -- Come to Jesus
Steeley Dan -- Cousin Dupree (creepy cousin)
Pearl Jam -- Crazy Mary (live version -- just great)
Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels -- Devil with a Blue Dress (according to my records I guess they *do* pull this out every couple of months. Odd.)
Ramones -- Do You Remember Rock and Roll?
Beatles -- Doctor Robert (wha? I've never heard this before. I actually happen to have an Uncle Robert who's an anaesthesiologist.)
So yeah, a more accurate promo would have been:
Big Rick -- "Yeah, what I like about A-to-Z is that we get to hear great songs that otherwise we would never play because according to a focus group it didn't appeal to the 25-40 male demo"
Dave Morey -- "You might get to hear one or two of those Frank Zappa tunes we pull out every once in a while to try and prove our 'indie cred' despite the fact that we almost never play them in normal rotation, lest we offend one of our precious advertisers."
Rosalie -- "A-to-Z lets us dig into the KFOG library and find great deeper tracks that we will play once a year and then carefully bury away, never to be heard again."
