I'm hoping for 1968 because I was born on August 25, 1968, but it seems like 1969 is next in the queue for late '60's, if that era is up this week. 1967 is even more overdue, but I'm wondering if it's deemed too "old," as 1966 and earlier almost certainly have been (last 1966 set was on April 7, 2014).

Good point. Seems like Renee got to visit those pre-68 years more frequently than AL has since her return. But that was under the previous PD, too.

yeah, we seem to get '60s once-a-month; but we get early-'70s regularly. Odd.
No AL thread, not even late last nite, and I didn't hear the usual promo this morning.
In other news, Rockwell subbed for Renee today -- she's on Jury Duty.

Well, '75 is a nice surprise. Can we avoid "Killer Queen" and "Ballroom Blitz"?
"Never been Any Reason" is an interesting TOTHK.

Even when they play a black guy, he's White. Actually, there has been quite a bit more soul and R&B played lately.

Yeah, highlights for me were the Head East, Outlaws, BlackByrds, and Springsteen. Beyond that were no great shakes. (Unlike what happened in Napa yesterday.)

TANC: Haven't heard this song in I don't know how long before today. A couple of years at least. So it's the TOTHK in today's set, and then on the way back from the bank at lunchtime, here it comes again on one of the local classic rock stations. How the hell does that happen?

I'd thought it might be a bustout but AL played it once, 4 years ago. Def a rarity around these parts, but it shows up on the Drive's 10@10 regularly -- a big Midwest hit, I gather.

I'd believe that--I put Head East under the same category as REO Speedwagon, Grand Funk, the Babys, and the Rockets.

The distribution of years clearly isn't random, so I think that while 1966 and even 1965 haven't
been dropped from "the big wheel," the years at each end of the range don't get picked as
often. And I have a hazy memory of Annalisa saying that 1966 is her favorite year, or the best
year, or some such. I don't think that she necessarily means musically -- my deciphering of her
autobiographical clues has led me to surmise that 1966 is her birth year.

yeah, we seem to get '60s once-a-month; but we get early-'70s regularly. Odd.
Beginning of the Rock Era (as opposed to rock 'n' roll)?
I'd say that Rock (as opposed to Rock 'n' Roll) began somewhere around 1965, and possibly
even 1964. Titles are not exactly springing to mind right now, although Dylan's Blonde On Blonde
is a prominent example, but likely not the first. Someone else will probably provide the obvious
answer, and I can do a facepalm when I read it.

TANC: last week Rob played "Like a Rolling Stone" in a 1965 10@10 on the Peak and he described it as "the sound of 'rock and roll' becoming 'rock' "

That makes sense, but I was coming from the perspective of a radio pro. Looking at the chart from the article you posted, "Why Classic Rock Isn't What It Used To Be," Sixties songs make up roughly 11% of total classic rock airplay, with '66 and previous combining for less than 2%. Data like that could lead an industry professional to conclude that the mid-'60s are "over" and redefine the Rock Era as '67 and after, beginning in earnest in the Seventies.

I'm not sure what your point is, but it seems like there's a bit of circular logic involved. It's the
"industry pro" who is responsible for the fact that '60s songs comprise 11% of classic rock airplay,
etc. It's probably based on some kind of survey, but that quickly devolves in its own loop. (Songs
don't get played because they don't have recognition, and they don't get recognition because
they don't get played.) Radio professionals may redefine their version of classic rock, but that
doesn't change when rock 'n' roll became rock.
