Kudos for the ID on that one, Herr Gaz--I had not a clue. Gotta like the way AL is jumpstarting the week with a blast o' da funk.

Post by: urth on March 01, 2010, 10:23:11 AM: WOS for Winning, and another shrug of cluelessness for whatever this following it. Sounds familiar, can't place it.

Post by: urth on March 01, 2010, 10:31:09 AM: Another one out of the vaults--This Town by the Go-gos. VHM there, but no love for Styx, Too Much Time On My Hands.

Post by: urth on March 01, 2010, 10:38:54 AM: And the play-by-play continues: Soft Cell telling us all about their taint. But is it the l-o-o-o-o-o-o-n-g version?

ETA: Not. Instead, we get unheezed by a different K.C.

I'm gobsmacked, but I really shouldn't be -- AL keeps playing tunes I begged Dave for. Peter Wolf last week, and now this. I'll be sure to catch the replay tonite, even tho' KPOO is doing a Cameo/Parkway special. And TANC: Judge is playing The Gap Band as I type this (tho' it's "Early in the Morning", not "Burn Rubber").

3/1/10 - MONDAY!! Gettin' Funky in...'81!!!

1. Carl Carlton- She's a Bad Mama Jama (She's Built, She's Stacked)
(Movie: Stripes)
2. The Gap Band- Burn Rubber (Why You Wanna Hurt Me)
3. Gary U.S.Bonds-This Little Girl
(TV-SNL Belushi-Gold Medal Winner)
4. Santana- Winning
5. The Teardrop Explodes-Passionate Friend
6. The Go-Go's- This Town
(News: Bohemian Grove)
7. Styx - Too Much Time on My Hands
(News: Reagan)
8. King Crimson - Elephant Talk (B.O.S!!)
9. Soft Cell - Tainted Love
10. Kim Carnes - Bette Davis Eyes

Holy crap -- Teardrop Explodes, too? Now I really *am* gobsmacked.

Post by: RGMike on March 02, 2010, 10:02:50 AM: caught the set on the replay -- despite 2 uber-Katrinas (Santana and Kim C), a superb collection. Hadn't heard that Go-Gos tune in ages, and the Teardrop Explodes song was NTM and an instant fave. But I gotta say: the King Crimson is a rather shameless Talking Heads ripoff, no?

And I loved the seg from Bohemian Grove rich guys to "Too Much Time On My hands".

I woulda been gobsmacked after hearing the Go-Go's tune, but I'll have to wait for Saturday morning now. That whole album still stands up well, top to bottom.
