yay! Greg sitting in for Dean on the CG Jukebox.

and a comedy alert for Beej -- CG is premiering a new comedy-oriented Late Show today (2-5pm Pacific time) with a new (and presumably funny) host.

here's one I've never heard: Peter Skellern (who?) doing "You're a Lady" which was once a flop single for Tony Orlando.  Big hit in the UK in '72, apparently.

WLNG Nugget o' the Day: Cher! "The Way Of Love"!!

ETA: Oh by cracky, it's Neil Sedacky: "Run Samson Run", his country-tinged ode to the biblical muscleman. No wonder Neil & Elton became fast friends... :wink:

Lost gem on CG: "Forget Me Not", martha & the vandellas from '71, a Vietnam-era "you're going off to war, i'll wait for you" tune that didn't do much in the states.

Wed 8/24: CG's Greg plays "A Love Like Yours (Don't Come Knockin Every Day)" a  rare Ike & Tina track from '66. I have never heard this!

OMG! John Denver, "Annies Song" -- I haven't heard this on the radio in a gazillion years...

Lordy! Greg is promising "Mull of Kintyre" in the next half-hour.

ETA: didn't happen. Maybe tomorrow

WLNG Nugget o' the Day: Marvelettes, "My Baby Must Be a Magician".

Thurs: Well, Greg never did play "Mull of Kintyre" but he did play the Seekers, "Morningtown Ride", a lovely little gem.

Isn't that the most bizarre dynamic for a song ever?  They're singing so emphatically yet so blase-ly at the same time, and I'm attracted to it in the same way that I'm attracted to outsider art.  Can someone make some sense of this for me?

Pre-CGSS, Paul Coyte plays the "dirty" version of CDB, "Devil Went Down to GA"

Greg sounds pre-recorded today... it's "Bank Holiday Weekend". But the tunes have been just fine.

Kool & the Gang, "Misled", or "Miss Lead" as I always called it (cause she's "heavy as a Chevy"). She hooked up with Mr Wood and they made lots of little pencils.

James Brown--Super Bad!

"Jump back! I wanna kiss myself!"

They might have done the prerecording just to give Greg a night off if he's been subbing for Dean all week.

Title: The Rock Show

Sweeney's playing a song by the lead singer from The Darkness under the name British Whale. I think Queen hired the wrong guy when they got Paul Rodgers for their reunion (not that there's a lot of disagreement about that)--this guy's got some amazing pipes.

I heartily concur. I can only assume the Darkness dude couldn't commit to a tour, whereas Paul Rodgers had, er, a lot of free time.

I believe in a (crazy little) thing called love...

It's a cover of an old Sparks song, done with the band's seal of approval.  I haven't heard either version.
