AL's whipped out a song I've never heard before.  Don't know who this is, neither.

Sounds a little like Huffamoose.

Google informs me that this is Dinosaur Jr, to go with the Jurassic intro.

I'm listening to LA's The Sound.

They played U2's Bad (live)

now they're doing I Don't Need No Doctor by Humble Pie.  not sure of the connection...


eta: the Humble Pie is also a live track.  This could be good.

cute. AL "whipping it out" conjures visions of strap-ons.  ;)  Dinosaur Jr woulf probably kick your ass for comparing them to Huffamoose.

Lenny, "are ya gonna rip-off Henrdix's way?"

BOS Pumpkins.  Listened to this album endlessly in 93-94.

proxy of gaz (I think), Smashing Pumpkins, who I never quite "got".  Just part of that whiny, "I'm a loser" movement of the time, to my ears.

Maybe you just hate it 'cause you got the title wrong: "She Don't Use Jelly".  Isn't that better?

OMG - BOS to The Flaming Lips!!!  Hits 106 had (and still does, as far as I know) "The Top 9 at 9" which I used to listen to every day (and kept records of, haha.)  For the longest time #1 on it was "Whiney Whiney" by Willi One-Blood, and I hated that song with a passion, so I kept on voting for "She Don't Use Jelly", which I didn't like that much either (esp. because incorrect grammar in the title irrirates me) but it looked like it was the contender most likely to knock WOB out of #1.  It did.  I loved that song ever since.

I was hoping for 1998, but I'll take this.  Looks like today's set is another trip down Hits 106 memory lane so far... Lenny Kravitz, the Pumpkins, the Flaming Lips.  At first I was afraid that she was going to do a dinosaur set...  :P

oh man, so sorry I missed this.  Did you ever see them do this on SNL?  that's when they had that freak Donald on guitar and he went apes*** w the psychadelic noize on this one.

Saw them on the Soft Bulletin tour at Maritme Hall.  BOS

Dinosaur Jr, T-Rex, and, um...

There are indeed a lot of Live 105 faves here that KFOG was ignoring in '93, so props to AL for that, even if they're songs I don't esp like.

Never saw 'em, but they do have good videos.

Some serious international weirdness from Dead Can Dance, I think.

Beats me.  I've only heard them on RadioParadise.  I'm not fond of most of their stuff.

ETA: Google says this is "The Ubiquitous Mr. Lovegrove".  Nobody knows why.

LOL @ "The Ubiquitous Mr. Lovegrove."  Have not heard it, but it sounds like something that would be on one of Starbucks's Hear Music compilations before they started releasing a high proportion of garbage (i.e. Antigone Rising), so BOS2 to that.

And BOS3 to Tim Finn.

Good time for the stream to start cutting out though.   :P

To be honest, I've always liked "Creep".  It's amusing.

This has not been the most enjoyable set AL's done, for me -- I was listening to KFOG and Live 105 equally in '93 and I remember more fun stuff than this. I'll have to dig out my best-of-'93 mix tonite and see what else was shakin'.

BOS #3 Depeche Mode, "I Feel You".

reckon this isn't to everyone's taste here though.

Not recognizing this droning, monotonous thing. Hope it's song #10, tho'.

wow, shray informs me it's DM!  Live'n'learn  -- but a perfect example of what I said yesterday about how they got more popular as they got more boring

I don't think that was one of their more popular songs though (or at least I hope it wasn't...it certainly wasn't one of their better ones  :P)

Well, that was the first AL set that I've actively not-enjoyed. Which is a pretty good batting average for 8 weeks work.  That set needed some pop and/or R&B for balance, IMHO.

I think I picked a good day to listen to The Sound, although Flaming Lips and Breeders get my votes.

eta:  I'm hearing the set on my buffered online player, and I like the Dead Can Dance track.

Made it to #37 on the singles chart and went gold.  It got heavy MTV airplay at the time.

I like a lot of this, would have preferred Barenaked Ladies or Frente! or Duran Duran (if my memory's right).
