Title: 27 May 2014: it's... 1977
Post by: RGMike on May 27, 2014, 07:40:36 AM
No clues last nite and I didn't hear the usual promo this AM.

ETA: they're playing Radiohead's "Creep" a lot lately.

wow: so soon after '76 last week, we get '77. Ian Dury "S&D&R&R" TOTHK and BOS1.

Without doing a systematic study, it does seem as if the 2nd AL era has been a lot more 70's-centric. I do believe we've only broken the Y2K barrier once (2002, in her third set back).

I can hear moaning about this from many directions, but it gets my BOS vote unquestioningly.

And: Synths!! (Although I have to confess I'm paying attention to the piano part, which is quite rocking in itself.)

So far it's an all-Brit set: Ian Dury, the Jam, Yes, and ELO.

ETA: Guess I jinxed it--number 5 is Two Out of Three Ain't Bad. Not British but a welcome choice nonetheless. BOS4 here (the only one not making the grade for me was the ELO, which still gets a VHM).

I agree, although three-fifths of Mac plays on Welch's redo: Mick, Lindsey B. and Christine McVie.

heard a fair amt of MTB yesterday: they were the artist of choice, it seems, during the interludes between band setups at a club in SF that had a Memorial Day hoedown with about five acts, including Red Meat and Dave Gonzalez (The Palladins, Hacienda Bros).  Good times, y'all!  *spits tobacky juice*

Beavis: You know, sometimes, like when I think about my dad, I always imagine that he's Sir Mix-A-Lot.
Butthead: You wish Beavis, your dad was probably that roadie for the Marshall Tucker Band.

nice to hear Red Meat are still around. Was a big fan back in the '90s when they got lots of airplay on KSAN/KNEW's Sunday nite alt-country show.

yeah, they were good, and had lots of fans there, but my fun fave was Velvetta, a C&W/twang band led by Leigh Crow, who used to do Elvis Herselvis.  :)

The El Rio, by any chance? They used to play there a fair amount.

ding ding ding!

Their Memorial and Labor Day events are benefits that feature c&w bands. Can't recall what the benefit was for, but it's five bands, low cover, nice patio, really crappy food.

There's definitely a lurve theme going on in the last half of this set... something on AL's mind?

BOS for Yes and Bob Welch; VHM for Ian Dury.  Otherwise this set didn't have a lot going for
it.  I would be perfectly happy to never hear another Meatloaf song for the rest of my life.

You're probably not alone but I'd argue that (a) the LP was huge, especially for those of us on the East Coast at the time and (b) unfortunately, we rarely hear anything other than "2 outta 3" or "Paradise/Dashboard Light" and any other track would be most welcome next time around.

And, I would dare suggest that anything off of "Bat Out Of Hell II: Back Into Hell" would more than spruce up a 1993 set.

I'm sure there are many HTH that were "huge" in their day, but that doesn't mean we have to
hear them on 10@10.  The Meatloaf songs were amusing at first, but the fifteen-year-old teenage
boy aspect wears thin quickly.  Otherwise I do not find his vocals or his music particularly
interesting or exceptional.
