Title: 1 November 2006--it's...1976!!
Post by: urth on November 01, 2006, 09:55:52 AM
...gonna be an early set. Backsell for the final set of the morning show ended at 9:52.

The skew toward the 70s continues...not that I'm complaining.

BOS1 Sweet!

Indeed--glam rock & power pop were kissin' cousins.

is this the JJ Cale version?  

"shit don't lie
shit don't lie
shit don't lie"

is the way I always heard it.

Definitely JJ.  EvilLyrics found "she don't lie" which is what it sounds like to me, though I don't really get it.

From glam rock to yacht rock via cocaine--sounds like '76 to me!

and yeah, I think that was the JJ Cale version of Cocaine--Clapton's didn't come out 'til 77, iirc.

The nice thing about J.J. Cale’s ”Cocaine” is that the lyrics are so strongly secondary to the sound of the song that their fractured linearity becomes an asset. If you want it to be an anti-drug song for you, it can be that. For most people, though, the attraction to the song is the driving guitar hook, and that’s true whether you’re enjoying Cale’s 1976 original version, or any of Eric Clapton’s several covers. Clapton’s studio version of ”Cocaine” off his 1977 solo album Slowhand is among his most enduringly popular hits. In concerts, Clapton often performed the song by beginning with a slow-developing, improvised-sounding guitar lead, building to the dramatic power riffs that open the familiar tune. Even for an artist like Clapton with a huge body of high-quality work, ”Cocaine” ranks among his best.

I usually like Tavares, but I was unmoved by it today.  Seemed really generic.  Buuuuuut, nice segue into "Don't Take Me Alive".  A fabulous opening chord.

Some nice segues this set; the latest: the Patty Hearst conviction clip into "Don't Take Me Alive."

Post by: RGMike on November 01, 2006, 10:18:38 AM
Dave revisits Ms Hearst -- just so he can segue into "Don't Take Me Alive", no doubt.

Hey, I got another album cover, feets #4 is the Ramones eponymous debut.  I'm up to 19 now.

Mike how come we never got any input from you on that thread?

Leon Russell was very welcome here, since I thought it was going to be Leo Sayer's "I Love You More than I Can Say".

just when Mark wanted an early-finishing set,,, we get "Bohemian Katrinody".  This gets way too much airplay from way too many sources, epic that it is.

Bathroom break!

What was that?  I know we've heard it before.

ETA:  Never mind.  I see it's Network, the most frequently quoted movie of all time, though that bit is less frequently heard.

Woo Hoo! BOS2 Tavares!!  Alicat cube dance in progress.

There were no extracurricular activities in my cubedom today. Getting caught up now and waiting for the replay.
Raining a bit down my way now and I'm  praying for no rain tomorrow night. Planning on being out doors for Crue and Aerosmith.
