Title: 1988 on Tues 11/8/05

Ugh.

So we begin with Fab T-Birds, "Powerful Stuff", not bad actually. But here's this bizarre remix of "Tumblin Down", featuring a sample of Tom Tom Club. I've only ever heard this on 10@10 -- anyone actually remember this from 1988?

Did that "Tumbling Down" song sample Tom Tom Club's "Genius of Love"?

BOS to Tall Cool Percy, I guess.  But 1988 tends to leave me cold.

Percy jinx!

But I agree with the sentiment. Unless Dave dredges up something really interesting (Debbie Harry's cover of "Liar Liar", maybe, or Chrissie Hynde doing "Windows of the World").

If he plays Tracy Chapman I'm bailing.

VHM Jeremy Irons.

I very nearly turned it off at Icicle Jerks.

And now we collectively slit our wrists to "Orinoco Flow (Sail Away)."

And it's such an easy target, too.

Sorry, nothing terribly interesting so far--even the Neil left me nonplussed.

By lack of competition, BOS to Joni & Don Henley, Snakes and Ladders. A bustout?

I think Dave's played it before but it's still rarity enough for a BOS.

yikes, "Wishing Well" for the umpteenth.

So many great tracks on that LP.  "Sign Your Name" was even a top 5 hit, Dave.
