BOS2 Dire Straits.

That was a pretty pointed segue from the GM/Roger Smith soundbites into "The Man's Too Strong". BOS from me.

You weren't on the phone, you were, um, preoccupied with that Helen Mirren pic ;)

You betcha.

And another BOS to greet your return: XTC Summer's Cauldron--tres apropos.
Title: XTC
Post by: Davefish on July 17, 2008, 10:42:30 AM: BOS for "Summer's Cauldron". Here's hoping we aren't denied...the segue.
Title: Re: 17 July 2008: 1986
Post by: mshray on July 17, 2008, 10:43:05 AM: BOS's for OMD & XTC.

This set is actually full of Katrinas, but they're all songs that I still like, not ones that make me cringe.

I'll agree with that -- except for the Goat, that one's gettin' on my LAST nerve! I was expecting '90s today so this was quite pleasant overall. So, any hints from Dave whether he's considering the Mandela thing (or ABBA, for that matter)?

I keep checking his blog...nothing. But I did send in the request earlier this week, and since I was up in the City on Tuesday for a mtg I swung by the KFOG offices and dropped off a CD I burned with several of the more obscure songs I'd mentioned. We'll see.
