Title: 4 Sept 2006:Labor Day!
Post by: RGMike on September 04, 2006, 10:10:25 AM
can't tell if this is newly-recorded or a Classic, but the Cate Bros. great "Union Man" is sounding my-T-fine.  BOS. Nice clip of a union worker right before it.

BOS2 Strawbs, natch.

Gaz posted recently about segues on taped-off-the-radio cassettes that he still hears mentally whenever a song comes up; the end of "Part of the Union" always triggers the beginning of Cat Stevens' "Matthew & Son" for me.

BOS3 "Mr President (Have Pity...)"

OMG! John,  "Working Class Hero"  "But yer still fucking peasants as far as I can see..."  BOS4!
Title: Randy Newman, Mr. President

Fuckin' peasants JINX!

Wonderful stuff here... Roger & Me clip into "My Hometown".  This is not sounding like a rerun to me.

Wow,  either Wall of Voodoo or Stan Ridgeway solo (?), "I Wanna Be a Boss"

Mark's DB has only two previous Labor Day sets, 2002 and 2004, and this isn't either of them, although obviously both have some overlap with today's set. The 2004 set is a classic.

9/6/2004:
Huey Lewis & the News-Workin' for a Livin'
Jeff Beck-Get Workin'
Paul Butterfield Blues Band-Work Song
Dolly Parton-9 to 5
Loverboy-Workin' For the Weekend
Cate Brothers-Union Man
Bachman Turner Overdrive-Blue Collar
Donna Summer-She Works Hard for the Money
Chris Rea-Workin' On It
Johnny Paycheck-Take This Job and Shove it

8/30/2002
Bachman Turner Overdrive-Blue Collar
Strawbs-Part of the Union
Bob Dylan-Union Sundown
Cate Brothers-Union Man
Devo-Workin' in a Coal Mine
Cat Stevens-Matthew & Son
Huey Lewis & the News-Workin' for a Livin'
Jeff Beck-Get Workin'
Dolly Parton-9 to 5
R.E.M.-Finest Worksong

What was that "I Want to be a Boss" song? That and Working Class Hero aren't on either of the previous sets. BOS WCH.

and here's Dylan, "Sundown on the Union" or whatever it's called. Kudos on the lengthy and very political clip that preceded it, Dave's really making a statement today.  Directed at the new owners, perhaps?

"Take This Job & Shove it", of course.

This was a SUPERB set, politically as well as musically. I may have to tape this one tonite.  All hail Dave!

Damn, what happened?  "Take this Job" segued into a somewhat incongruous Nixon resignation clip and then commercials. No backannounce. Shit.

Dave was being very political, almost trying to make himself a target of the right? :lol:

I sure hope you were set up early!  Drove all the way from San Diego yesterday, and reached Gilroy about 9:30.  Turned on 97.7 and promptly heard Powers say "One more jam tune and then it's Dave Morey with a special Labor Day 10@10."  I thought, I sure hope you're not going to play 20 minutes of commercials, but instead the set kicked off at 9:45.  Which was good for me because I was only 45 minutes from home at that point & thus got to hear the whole set (and totally agree that it was a tremendous set, especially the Stan Ridgway, whcih I could have ID'd for you had I been listening in the a.m., and the long clip about the Anaconda Mining company strike in 1917-18.)

But I was also thinking that I sure hope no one was planning on taping.

I actually was set up early (after watching the Reno 911 marathon!), and managed to tape it. But it still had that weird Nixon clip and no backannounce.

Glad you got it.  I just heard almost the whole thing* and made a point of paying attention to the back-announce, which commenced right after Johnny Paycheck & was very matter-of-fact.

*Starting today Christina is teaching an intro to Mandarin class for little kids every Saturday at 8:30 at the local Hayward Continuing Education center.  Last year Wei Wei took the class & Christina substituted a couple of times for the quite ancient teacher.  So now she's the regular teacher (which she's actually pretty psyched about), Di Di is in her class & Wei Wei will be in the next level class.  The upshot for me is two-fold: first of all we'll all be getting up at 7 every Saturday, so I can turn the radio on without anyone complaining, and second I get 3 hours of free time every Saturday.  It'll be several weeks before I get the backlog of househould projects accomplished (probably more like several months!), but even if I have to work my butt off doing chores it's still a fair trade just to get some time to myself on a regular basis.

Now it's the 1989 set, most of which I missed without regret on Thurs.
