John Lee Hooker!

Not many can push Van so far into the background on his own record.

AAaaackkk.

Dave Pirner feels "like a key that needs turning".  WTF!?

"Runaway Trina", one of the inevitables. If this were a Dave set, I'd say "can Blind Melon be far behind?" but I expect Ginger will be a tad more creative.

keys were made to be turned; he needs someone to help him realize his potential.  Or so I always interpreted the line.

Locking or unlocking?
Clockwise or counterclockwise?
nifty simile or inane-but-it-rhymes?

I think the blokes in the band say that they were influenced by the Smiths & My Bloody Valentine.

whatever they may say, they made their reputation by being dubbed "Radiohead Lite", fairly or unfairly.

Didn't know anything about this tune #5, "So Much Mine", but after checking AMG I think I'm going to have to check this out.  

There's also a track called "Amelia" on it.

Which tune from Crash Test Dummies 2nd album will Ginger play?  I'm guessing the 3rd track, but  either of the first two would be cool.

1.  God Shuffled His Feet
2.  Afternoons and Coffeespoons
3.  MMM, MMM, MMM, MMM

New to me too. Big in Boulder, apparently. Is that anything like being Big in Japan?

Wow, a Crash Test Dummies song I've never heard!

ETA:
Yay Ginger!!  As she said, "It's not often you get a little T. S. Elliott invoked in pop songs."

...which probably means we should proxy for Geoff as well.

You should get a copy of this album from me next time we hook up, it's pretty good all through (that is if you have already acquired the taste for CDT's unique humor & orchestration)

VHM from me as well, hard to believe KFOG hasn't over-exposed this one like they have nearly every other decent song from the Sunset district's favorite local surfer.

This sounds a lot like BoDeans, but if it were I'd probably already know the song.

Ahhh, the Freddy Jones Band.  The only song I know by them is the very nice "In A Daydream".

indeed, KFOG never played this one.

OMG!! BOS Michael Stipe & Natalie Merchant's "To Sir With Love". A B-side/CD Bonus Track I haven't heard since '93.

skin-crawling movie clip.  Robert Redford & Demi accent-on-the-2nd-syllable Moore.  What a horrid film to be so extraordinarily popular.

I find most horrible films make me want to walk out, a few make me want to wallow in it, but only rarely does a film make my want to go up and trash the projector.  This was one of those.
