Title: 12 Sept 2016: it's... 1983
Post by: RGMike on September 12, 2016, 09:43:17 AM
Day One of the all-request week. Not sure when my set (or anyone else we know) will air.

Nice start with the Polecats "Make a Circuit"...

...but followed by the uber-LN of "Modern Love"

I won't spoil the rest, but except for what appears to be an Oingo Boingo bustout, this was something of a "DM/AL Greatest 1983 Hits" set.

I listened to it while walking my grandson around the neighborhood.  Not sure whether he dug it or not, he was a little cranky, and some of the tunes were so...80's!

Definitely by the numbers. Why would he bother doing a 1983 greatest hits set when he could do whatever he wants? I guess people want different things, eh?

Sounded like it. I have the 12" vinyl at home somewhere.
