Don'cha Just Know It to lead off. Not sure who the artist is.
I'll give it a BOS. A fine silly song.

The first one I ever heard was the Grateful Dead at Frost Amphitheatre at Stanford. I loved it, and it got me interested in the Neville Brothers. I'd like to hear that again.

Hey, I'm listening to it now. Apparently, it's not on the streaming audio radar of my company. Does the DJ ever say anything? Is Dave Morey still doing this?

Yes, Dave is still behind it, and if the DJ doesn't talk, that usually means it's him. Sometimes he uses a robotic voice generator.  (You might hear his voice for station IDs and the like.) Other DJs do speak on-air with their real voices.

Ditto "Hey Pocky Way" -- Meters? (there's so many versions of this)
The first one I ever heard was the Grateful Dead at Frost Amphitheatre at Stanford. I loved it, and it got me interested in the Neville Brothers. I'd like to hear that again.
