New Coke again. Thread's up.
-
Yeah, I was afraid A-Ha would appear (it was part of AL's photo-montage last nite) but at least we're getting it out of the way early. They'll be gone in (less than) a day.
-
Prince's "Pop Life" is always welcome, however. BOS1 for not being "Raspberry Beret"
-
Nancy Reagan has clout --> HoJo, "Things Can Only Get Better". Let's hope so.
-
"Make My Day" sez Ronnie. "REM is an Uber-LN" sez me. "Can't Get a Bustout From Here". Philo Math was the arithmetic detective, wasn't he?
-
"Tee-na-nee-na-nu" -- I wanna say Ry Cooder? VHM at very least.

Nope, Alex Chilton. His r&b period. I want to say AL has played this once before.

yeah, she has. I can never remember how to spell it.
LN2 or 3: Power Station.
-
Pee Wee --> "Smooth Operator". This is a pretty autopilot-y set considering the nice asortment of requests last nite.
-
Mr Ferry with another AL standby. I'm getting sleepy.
-
Roxy Music with another AL standby. I'm getting sleepy.
Sort of -- it's Bryan Ferry, , but most of the players are the same as the last couple Roxy albums, so we'll give you that one.

BOS2 Gen'l Pub "Never You Done That"
-
uber-uber-BOS3 Zappa's speech about the PMRC.
WOS Phantom Rocker & Blorf.
-
This set struck me as kinda "meh", tho' it got some nice comments in snipeville. No bustouts, it would seem, tho' "Never You Done That" has only one prev appearance in 2009, followed by 2 prevs for the Alex Chilton. So them's yer rarities.

I missed almost all of this morning's set, but listening to the backsell it struck me as being almost
entirely "by the numbers." Another big BOS for Frank Zappa's congressional testimony -- the buzzsaw
line is going in my quote file. And speaking of Frank, he has been woefully underrepresented in 10@10
over the years.
Hey, look what I just found:

(It's a transcript of his entire appearance at the hearing -- looks like a great read!)

TANC: The Peak did 1974 this morning and they played his rarely-heard "Apostrophe" as part of an instrumental trifecta that included "Tubular Bells" and Mick Ronson's "Slaughter on 10th Ave"
I very nearly requested "Flower Punk" for '68 yesterday. Next time.
ETA: a quick search of this forum (haven't looked at the shraytabase) shows his 1985 PMRC clips show up nearly as often as his songs do in all other years. We haven't heard "Joes' Garage" since 2011, amazingly.

I don't think that much of Joe's Garage, given the quality of most of his oeuvre. Much like with Jethro Tull and
the Kinks, to name just two, 10@10 seems to focus on a small number of his later well-known songs and ignores
a large body of his earlier, and IMO, much better material.
