Judge is doing a salute to Rudy Ray Moore/"Dolemite" today. Just heard the trailer for Disco Godfather (!):

"It's a movie that'll put you in traction!
Comin' to this theatre as the next attraction!"

Bob Shannon is doing his "Lost Hits" Halloween show on WLNG -- here's R Dean Taylor's fab Faux Tops-ish "There's a Ghost in My House" -- no wonder he has 7 rooms of gloom.

It's The Drive's "other" internet channel -- avail on their website @ www.wdrv.com or by clicking "WDRV Deep Tracks" under Regional 10@10s. It's a very enjoyable classic rock stream a la KCDX or WMIR.

CG update: their player seems to (finally) be working again; I'm sampling their "Saturday Night Party Classics" show, which appears to be jockless, and an all-over-the-map conglomeration of upbeat tunes: 4 Tops "Reach out", followed by Wayne Fontana "Game of Love", followed by "Backstabbers", followed by "Message in a Bottle"... WTF?  So it's not a soul/disco show at all, and therefore not terribly interesting. I won't be making time in my schedule for this.

Switched over to Sweeney's Sixties Classics, one of the few interesting shows left on CG; just heard -- NTM -- the Swinging Blue Jeans' version of "You're No Good" (!)  And now the Move can "Hear the Grass Grow". I've gotta remember to listen to this show more regularly.

Amen Corner's "Bend Me Shape Me" is a totally different record from the American Breed's version. JoBoxers shoulda done a cover of the AC arrangement to follow-up "Just Got Lucky".

It's available for download (look for the "Listen Again" tab once you open their player) until this Sunday.  Tom Jones, the original gangsta, just popped a cap in dat 'ho Delilah. (actually he used a knife). He shoulda hooked up with "Jennifer Juniper" instead!

For Ali and all those who miss CGSS, here's a possible substitute: London's "Heart Radio" and their Friday Club Classics...

http://www.heart1062.co.uk/club-classics-45

Today's a good day to try them out -- the show runs until 10pm London time, which is normally 2pm here, but since they re-set their clocks last week, it'll go to 3pm today only.

I know the guy behind that, actually.  He's a good guy, very devoted to the concept of Internet radio.  I can pass along feedback if you're a regular listener.

Is the guy you know "tom?"  He's the regular jock on the 70s rock station.  Anyway, sure, if you see him and think of it, mention that people certainly notice and appreciate it.  Right now, though I'm on radioio70s pop: "I Am, I Said," said Neil Diamond.

sorry, just saw this -- I've been listening to HeartFM (see prev post) but "Club Classics" is almost over for today. The verdict: not quite as eclectic as Greg's CGSS but quite enjoyable. Def going to be a regular Friday thing for me, and apparently starting a week from Monday they're going to be doing it every day, at least until Xmas.
