A pretty eclectic set, including Tina's pre-comeback comeback, a mid-charter of Rev. Al's "Let's Stay Together."

instant BOS for me.  Another emblematic-of-the-'80s artist, who had tons of hits, that Dave seriously underplays.

VHM Percy and his big log.  Or is that VHM Log and his big Percy?

Followed shortly thereafter by a perennial BOS, "Time (Clock of the Heart)."  I remember them doing this on "Solid Gold" and finally confirming that Boy was a boy.  (When they did "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me" on the same show, I honestly wasn't sure.)

Hope Mr Browne isn't harshing your mellow.

I don't hate "Lawyers in Love" at all.  But I always thought it was about yuppies rather than politics, which I'm told is a misreading.

Ooh!  Das 99 Luftballons!

Rob kicks Dave's butt again -- not only the Tina and the CC, but The DD, which is one of theirs I don't think I've ever heard on KFOG.

I also should add how good "Pink Houses" and "The Stand" sounded on the replay.  It's been WAY too long since we had a big rock hit with an anthemic chorus.  For as much as we think of the Alarm as the poor man's U2, that song owed a whole lot more to "This Is Radio Clash" as far as my ears are concerned.
