Making up for missing it last week when Dave took a sickie.
Mediocre Smithereens lead off, no?

I *expect* mediocrity in any '92 visit ;)

BOS U2, I can't think of too many things that might arrive to blow me away in this year.
well, maybe Billy Ray Cyrus or Shanice, but I'll be floored if Dave plays either

what i got you gotta get it, put it IN you!

Here's one that's worthy of a BOS if not a blow-away candidate: Chili Peppahs, Give At Away.
I remember going into an audio store on Van Ness about 15 years ago with a friend who was looking to buy some speakers, and he brought this album to demo them with. We had this song cranked in one of the listening rooms when a salesman came in to complain that there were kids in the store and could we pick something else to listen to. We took our business elsewhere.
Dig the little trill Anthony adds to the line "give it away now!"

They went to Diz Knee Land -- and were never heard from again...

"I just flipped off President George...I'm goin't to Diz Knee Land!"
BOS2.

BOS from me, and a proxy of my 8-yr old son, Adrian. One of his favorites, along with "Shake Some Action"
-
Resounding WOS to Dada's "Dizz Knee Land," which I found as unclever on the first listen as on the hundredth.

Tell Adrian "Shake Some Action" is one of Uncle Joe's favorites as well!

Interesting clip on the Rodney Kiing riots. I've always felt that the media coverage was part and parcel with the conflagration.

Nah, I'm gonna tell him you don't like Diz Knee Land, and the next time he sees you he's gonna poke you in the eye!

That 92 LA Riot was whack! I was working Kearny & Market SF then and there was also a small riot in that area that night, breaking store windows between Union Sq and Embarcadero!

Least necessary: Nirvana.

WOS "I'm Too Sexy" -- what Gaz said about "Diz Knee Land" goes double here.
-
WOS Right Said Fred. Wonder if every band that throws a bit of Third Stone From the Sun into a song pays royalties to the Hendrix estate?
-
Today's avatar: me with Dave & Peter at the KFOG Morning Show at Yoshi's Oakland 8/06.

Least necessary: Nirvana.
gonna revise that in the face of Right Said Fred?

I don't know "3rd Stone," where's the theft?
My least-necessary vote. At least the RSF guys had a good sense of humor about the flukiness of their hit. Maybe Dave should be prodded to play the follow-up, "Don't Talk Just Kiss."

No. There's "unnecessary" (because it gets plenty of KFOG play) and then there's "abominable" (RSF).

So what are the official Katrinas in this year? 'cause much as I love k.d.l., she's gotta be in k-territory.
-
Most necessary of set - "Constant Craving"

You'd recognize it--its main theme has been borrowed liberally by a number of artists, including Sting, just to name one. From Wikipedia:
This song, along with "Purple Haze," was frequently covered live by Jaco Pastorius. Part of the guitar chorus melody has been quoted on other records, amongst them The Amboy Dukes ("Baby, Please Don't Go"), Cozy Powell ("Dance With The Devil"), Weather Report ("Slang"), The Allman Brothers ("Mountain Jam"), DEVO (a cover of Hendrix's "Are You Experienced"), and Right Said Fred ("I'm Too Sexy").
-
Frequent flyer though it is, I still love the melody of "Constant Craving." (As did the Stones, as we all know ...)
-
Most necessary of set - "Constant Craving"
'92 was the year AAA broke--as evidenced by the last couple of songs. Cue the Rembrandts!

k.d. is in there, but Life Is A Highway, 3 Nirvana songs, Breaking The Girl, Broken Glass & All 4 Love are as bad or worse.
-
So what are we hearing right now? This power-ballady thing is totally off my radar.
ETA: It just hit me--is this Metallica, off that record they did with the SF Symphony?

INXS: a fave CD from 92

"Nothing Else Matters," from the same album as "Unforgiven" and "Enter Sandman," but sans SF Symphony. Heard way too much of those singles during college.
BOS to INXS, "Not Enough Time," pretty little thing.

My love of Welcome to Wherever You Are is well documented on this board. 8)

BOS2 Jerry Brown, beating Al Gore to the punch!
in 1989 when I was a chaffeur, I had each of them as all-day customers. The first time I heard about global warming was directly from Al Gore's mouth while standing outside my car chatting. Jerry was funny, picked him up at the airport but had to drive past him to find a parking spot, so when I walked back to meet him he told me that he was worried that I hadn't recognized him. Took him to a bar mitzvah, among other things.

And in doing so accused Obama and Clinton quite directly of "surrendering to terror," whatever the fuck that's supposed to mean. Good riddance, Rom-bot.

Rommy: You can't buy your way into the White House. Your cash ain't nuthin but trash.
(I was late to the forum here today getting tix for Steve Miller/Robben Ford at the Fillmore).

Hey Mike, for some reason your avatar has gone south. Everyone elses' seem to be OK, but for yours, I'm seeing just the little red x.

It comes & goes, I switched to a web-based one (for Valentine's Day) rather than an uploaded one. I'll fix it tonite.

I know I'm not inventing this! Dave did this at least 3 times in the late '90s; I figured it was a recurrent. Artists like Peter Grabriel, the Police, Kool & the Gang, who recorded their hits in foreign languages (some of which were issued as B-sides). Anyone got my back on this?! :-\

*If* he did it, it was maybe once, No way it happened 3 times; I could not possibly have forgotten such a thing.

I remember this at least once. Beatles & Gabriel in German, Sting & Toni Basil in Spanish, etc. I think I even have a tape somewhere.

ETA: Yep--he recorded nearly his entire Eat 'em and Smile album in Spanish (Sonrisa Salvaje).

I have a 10at10 foreign language set on tape, stashed in a box somewhere, from perhaps 8-10 years ago.
