Rioting in the Sesame Street promised. But first...Big Mac! Black Magic Woman, Proxy of Geoff!
And a BOS from me too. FMac, back when they were a blues band.
-
White snow in the East Bay hills, and Black Magic Woman on SF radio.
And Crystal Blue Persuasion making it a 1-2 for the BOS votes.
ETA: I wonder if this is one of those sets where Annalisa does a mini-thme to lead in. How many other 'color-songs' are there from '69?
maybe Green River or Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town?
-

"Fleetwood Mac... the Cadillac of hamburgers!"
AL sure loves her some '60s -- she always seems genuinely excited when it's a year from that decade. Proxy of geoff: the orig "Black Magic Woman".
BOS "Crystal Meth Persuasion"
-
I have a different mix of "Crystal Blue Persuasion" in which the final verse is punctuated with trumpet in between the lines: "Maybe tomorrow (ba-ba-buh-buh-bap-buh, bap-buh, bap-buh)..." It's better that way.
-
An ATBB for Tommy Roe, and kinda surprising, since this was a #1 hit. BOS #3 & a pre-emptive OMGWTFLOL for Mike.
-
It's a Tommy twin spin! First James, now Roe, gettin' Dizzy.
Wish I had a buck for every time this song modulates to a different key.
-
BOS1 to Jeremy Lloyd on the Laugh-In Joke Wall. Although it should have been Goldie leading in to "Dizzy."
-
An ATBB for Tommy Roe, and kinda surprising, since this was a #1 hit.
Trivia: Roe pitched this to the Four Tops (!) before recording it himself.
-
BOS to Peter "Green Manalishi's" Fleetwood Mac
.. and Tommy Roe's Dizzy!
-
BOS2 "Dizzy" -- a KFOG bustout (I think) tho' not an ATBB -- Bob's played it.

remember the last time we went to 1969, and Annalisa played the Python's original Dead Parrot sketch, and I reported that I had called her, and she told me she had a bunch of Laugh-In material ready to go, but went with the Python's instead?
-
O. M. F. G.
Bustout of the month goes to Mama Cass's take on "Easy Come, Easy Go." The bubblegum went down easier when Bobby Sherman took a crack at it.
-
BOS1 to Jeremy Lloyd on the Laugh-In Joke Wall. Although it should have been Goldie leading in to "Dizzy."
there's yer Goldie!! (Cactus Flower with Walter Matthau)
BOS3 and a *real* ATBB, Mama Cass' version of "Easy Come Easy Go". Holy flaming Mama of pop!
-
BOS4, Mama Cass, unless I miss my guess.
-
"Easy Come, Easy Go." The bubblegum went down easier when Bobby Sherman took a crack at it.
My mom used to sing this all the time, so I def give it BOS3.
-
AAACK! we were doing so well, too: least-necessary of set, Steam.
-
Looks like AL's hitting the smoother side of '69 today.
Katrina though it may be, VHM Na Na Hey Hey etc.
-
I went for a look-see at the 1969 Top 40 chart, and I saw this, anyone ever heard of it?
"Let A Woman Be A Woman - Let A Man Be A Man" by Dyke & The Blazers, #36.

I've seen the chart entry but have never heard the song.
I hope AL stays in bubblegum-land. Peppermint Rainbow! Cuff Links!
-
BOS #4, the Oo! And our third Tommy/Tommie of the set.
-
I hope AL stays in bubblegum-land. Peppermint Rainbow! Cuff Links!
Alas, no. A shifting of gears to the 'Oo, See Me Feel Me.
Dick Martin skinnydipping is a mental image I'd rather not have.

no, but love the irony of that title being sung by someone called Dyke.
Say goodnight, Dyke!
-
BOS4 and proxy of cairo, DCT & BS&T.
-
Another bustout, BS&T You Made Me So Very Happy.
Are there two lead singers on this song, or is David Clayton Thomas able to handle the higher tenor parts as well as the growlier parts in his normal range?

During yesterday's Raiders game, Gumble and Dierdorf were talking about the Who appearing at the Superbolw halftime show. They mentioned a bunch of hits, then Dierdorf goes "Pinball Wizard -- love the piano at the beginning of that one!" oops... He did sort of correct himself quickly, though, by saying "Elton John's cover of that is really great."

Some people say now
Living in a joke, ha
People said, yes, they did
Country's going up in smoke
I got a message
They need to know
Gotta let a woman be a woman
And let a man be a man
Gotta let a woman be a woman
And let a man be a man
Listen
Some people call me
Broadway Tramp now
They even said, yes, they did
I had no place to stay
Listen
Cause I hung around now
Down on Broadway
Gotta let a woman be a woman
And let a man be a man, ha
Gotta let a woman be a woman
And let a man be a man
But listen, dig it now
Some people don't like
The way Sally walks
Gotta let a woman be a woman
And let a man be a man
Gotta let a woman be a woman
And let a man be a man
Listen, get off my back
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
And that woman too
Talk about something, yeah
Gonna benefit you...

this counts as Canadian rock!

BTW Gaz your signature quote is slightly off.

so on and so on and scooby dooby doo...
...still flashing back to that rare clip Gaz & I saw courtesy of Richie Unterberger. Damn!
-
blue people? Has Sly seen Avatar?
-
Another bustout, BS&T You Made Me So Very Happy.
Are there two lead singers on this song, or is David Clayton Thomas able to handle the higher tenor parts as well as the growlier parts in his normal range?
I think he jumps into his throat and "head voice" to cover the highs, while he sings from his diaphragm for the lows. Sorta like Axl Rose.
But that high throat singing can ruin your voice. Sorta like Axl Rose.
-
BOS(5)FRA -- little-heard Allmans (or so I assume).
-
Whoawhoa-fucking-whoa! Bustout of the day, Allmans, from their first record, Just Ain't My Cross to Bear.
(Covered by Gregg solo about 20 years later, but not nearly as powerful as this rendition.)

I'm going to see his presentation this Wednesday at the Park Library on Page Street in SF. (thanks to Gaz for the tip!)

AL never does a '60s set without at least one ATBB; so far we've had 2 that I know of (I'm unsure about the Who track, which would make 3 if it's not in the shraytabase).
-
VHM this high-larious Ventures commercial. One of their 38 charted LPs, no doubt. BOS6 "H5-0"

"When they do a hit, you *know* it's been done!"
Ummm, yeah. Right.

It's 10:44, do you know where your 21 guns are? Yep, right here.

I'm sure it's been discussed to death here, but I find it hysterical that AL would regularly follow 10@10 with arguably one of the blandest hits of the decade (and this from a band that I generally enjoy).

Perhaps they're under instructions to play certain songs at least once per shift, so she's just getting it out of the way early. See also: the current Rob Thomas piece of drek.

Merci buckets! Fixed.
PS: I cannot believe someone thought to make a shirt of that.

I YouTubed it: musically and vocally it's a total JB knockoff. Not sure quite what he's getting at; I reflexively suspect Sally was too butch for that Dyke. Sigh.

the only music AL (or anybody at KFOG) *chooses* to play is on 10@10, or the occasional Morning Show track (where they have leeway regarding topical stuff and of course Request-O-Rama) . Everything else is programmed by computer which is why stuff like "21 Guns" and DMB and Snow Patrol comes up like clockwork every 4-5 hours.
