We're due for 1979 here today, too.
But we go to 1981 instead--for the second time since Dave split for Michigan. Who's keeping track of these things?

I heard this yesterday on RP. I noted then that it sounded an awful lot like Tom Scott on saxophones. AMG confirms that this is the case.

Scott has a sound that's pretty identifiable--he plays the reed parts on the Dead's Estimated Prophet, too, and it sounds just like he does here.

naming a car after a planet that's too close to the sun is both clever and disturbing.

VHM J&V (?) -- I'd really like to hear "Friends of Mr Cairo" occasionally.

BOS for Sir Lindley's Merkery Blues.
Likewise--I've heard this song a ton since then, but that's my own doing, not cuz it's a radio staple or anything.
Looked back at the previous 81 classic--it looks a tad better overall, but two of the songs were identical--Lunatic Fringe and Life of Illusion. Surprised? Me neither.

Really hope Dave is getting his studio up and running, and not spending all his time shoveling snow. Yesterday's classic ruled, but today's definitely didn't.

Well, the last couple days we've missed the quiz/chat with the foghead picking the bonus, but the stream comes back in time for the song itself. I guess that's an improvement. :|

Not to put too fine a point on it, but Apollo was WAAAY gayer than Mercury/Hermes. Wikipedia lists no male lovers for Mercury/Hermes (although he WAS Greek, so one never can be sure ;) ). But Apollo was openly bi.
(per Wkipedia)
Apollo: Male lovers
Apollo and Hyacinthus
Apollo, the eternal beardless kouros himself, had the most prominent male relationships of all the Greek Gods. That might be expected from a god who was god of the palaestra, the athletic gathering place for youth who all competed in the nude. Many of Apollo's male lovers suffer tragic deaths resulting from accidents.
Hyacinth (or Hyacinthus) was one of his male lovers. Hyacinthus was a Spartan prince, beautiful and athletic. The pair were practicing throwing the discus when a discus thrown by Apollo was blown off course by the jealous Zephyrus and struck Hyacinthus in the head and killing him instantly. When Hyacinthus died, Apollo, filled with grief and in anger at Zephyrus, transformed him into the wind so that he could never touch or speak to anyone again. Out of Hyacinthus' blood, Apollo created a flower named after him as a memorial to his death, and his tears stained the flower petals with άί άί, meaning alas. The Festival of Hyacinthus was a celebration of Sparta.
Another male lover was Cyparissus, a descendant of Heracles. Apollo gave him a tame deer as a companion but Cyparissus accidentally killed it with a javelin as it lay asleep in the undergrowth. Cyparissus asked Apollo to let his tears fall forever. Apollo granted the request by turning him into the tree named after him, which was said to be a sad tree because the sap forms droplets like tears on the trunk.

Ha! thanks for the dish. I was just referring to the wings on Mercury's feet, giving new meaning to the phrase "a little light in the loafers".
