Was away from the radio when dave spun the wheel.
But I've never heard this Chris Rea song before, so points to DM for that alone.
ETA: Yep, 87 confirmed.
-
nice start with Chris Rea's "Let's dance" -- I'll even give it a BOS.
I am quite sick of Jim & Tammy, tho'
But --OMG! -- BOS2 BonJersey.

another SF memory for me: I had heard the song on Capital Radio that summer (working at ABC), it was a decent-sized UK hit. Looked everywhere for it, and finally found the 45 at Tower when on vacay here.
-
Dave cheats and plays "Graceland" in '87 -- and not the first time, iirc. It was indeed a single in '87, but c'mon.
-
I'd never heard the Chris Rea song before, but I thought it was kinda cheesy, especially the trumpets. Rarity points but no BOS.
-
Ah yes, the year of Graceland... I seem to remember that Paul Simon won just about every Grammy he could this year.
-
VHM to the segue from Stock Market to "Hell in a Bucket" (tho' it's nearly a Katrina all by itself) But (you're way ahead of me) WOS Dead.

Clever segue, but I want to say he's done that one before.
-
BOS to RHCP! Back when they were still funky.
-
birthday party cheesecake jellybean boom.
OMFG! BOS3 for bustoutiness alone, whoever this is rapping. But Dave's taste in this genre leaves a lot to be desired.
-
BOS RHCP's "Fight Like A Brave"
-
OHJEEZUSKAYRIST!! Red Hot Chili Peppers!! Will be tough to top this one. And a definite bustout.

I was gonna guess Run-DMC at first. I knew it wasn't the Beasties (whose LP as also '87).
VHM FMac.

No Kidding. The Db sez that the previous earliest Dave has played RHCP is in 1991, so a bustout by about 4 yrs. But I know Rob or Ginger or Marcus has played "True Men Don't Kill Coyotes" from even earlier.

true men don't kill coyotes -- unless of course they're fighting like a brave.
So does Atlanta play that song at their games? 'twould seem a natural.

and again the stream craps out.
-
Ah well, I was enjoying this set, and there goes the stream again. Seems like about the same time as before....

This does seem like a regular thing the last several days. Might we worth a note to the KFOG techmeisters.
Btw, we're now hearing Georgie M's Faith, if you're still offline.

Well I don't feel bad about missing that 'trina -- but this has been one of Dave's better '87 sets in some time.
-
Whoa! I believe this is the Cure, and possibly another bustout, but I don't know them well enough to ID the song.
ETA: It was Why Can't I Be You.
Bon Jovi got BOS. And Dave copped to playing Faith too much in 87 sets!!! My god!! Now THAT'S a first!
-

I wanna say Dave's played "WCIBY" before, but I always say that...
At least he didn't play "Faith" right after Jim'n'Tammy as per usual.

In this case, you're right. Checked the DB, and it's gotten played exactly once before--in 2005.

-
Belated props to Dave for the segue of the villainous Ollie North into "Little Lies." That chapter of history has yet to be grasped.
-
And what a complementary trio they were, at their best: Christine's effortless melody and efficiency; Lindsey's remarkable (or cokeheadist) perfectionism; Stevie's dreamy intuitions. Rhythm section got to take a well-deserved break by Tango in the Night.
