OMG, 2 80's sets AND a 90s set in the same week. When was the last time that happened? RadicalDigits is very happy. ;D
Sounds like REM to kick things off.
-
Philomath is where we'll go.
I'm quite surprised at the lack of a movie themed set. Ya think there's friction between the Morning Show and 10@10 now that they have different hosts?

Why would you think that? (no sarcasm, in case it sounds that way)
Good TOTHK from REM. I've been humming "South Central Rain" since last night, so it's nice to knock that outtathere.

BOS New Order -- we got them this week after all!

I've heard many party bands do this over the years, but have only heard New Order's version twice.

I just wonder about programming not wanting to duplicate things or prevent overkill -- "no, AL, you can't do an Oscar-themed 10@10 because the Morning Show is doing 4 hours of movie-related Request-O-Rama". When Dave hosted both shows the dynamic was a bit different.
-
dang, I was so certain she'd do an Oscar/movie themed set that I didn't even try to make a b-day request.
but 2 BOS's so far.
-
Since moving to OR I snicker whenever I hear that line about Philomath in "Can't Get There From Here." I don't think Stipe was singing about the one near Corvallis:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philomath,_Oregon
But Rastermon probably know more about it than I do.
Who's this doing tune #2? Like it but don't recognize it.
-

Pick your fave '85 song and e-mail it to her--she could call an audible, she's done it before!
-
Is this David Gilmour doing song #3? I don't recognize the song, but it sounds kinda like him singing.
-
Song #3 is NTM -- "a life for a life"?
-
HM to 17-year-old Charlie Sexton on "Beat's So Lonely."
-
Is this David Gilmour doing song #3? I don't recognize the song, but it sounds kinda like him singing.
sounds a lot more like Bruce Cockburn to me, but that's not a definitive answer.

You may be right--the backing track sounded decidedly un-Gilmourian. Guess we'll have to wait for the backsell to find out.

okay, just did. If we hear "Let's Go All The Way" or "When Smokey Sings" it will be my gift from Annalisa.
-
HM to 17-year-old Charlie Sexton on "Beat's So Lonely."
which we heard on a 1986 Casey's '80s 2 weeks ago -- musta been one o' them overlappers.
-

I'll see you and raise you a BOS. Very much a zeitgeist song for me.

Except the first is from '86 and the 2nd is from '87. oops!
-
I always liked "Some Like It Hot" even though rhyming words with themselves is a pet peeve of mine: "the heat is on" and "they can't go on," f'rex.
-
Mr Palmer wants to multiply. VHM Power Station.
-
And here's Power Station, again for the second time this week--Larry played it in LA a couple days ago. (Not quite the rarity that Carl Carlton is, but still...)
-
There's your Oscar Tie-in -- Chevy Chase in Fletch!
I actually watched it the other day. Big time Beverly Hill Cop rip-off. Kinda funny.

Kevin Smith has been circling a Fletch remake/reboot for some time now. Well, it has to be better than Cop Out...
-

Definitely Gilmour, though I didn't recognize it.
Just checked AMG, neither had an album out in '85, but both did in '84, and BC also had one in '86. But I know both those Cockburn albums quite well, so I think it must not be him. If it's Gilmour, perhaps it is the track called "Murder".
-
hardly a rarity, but BOS2 to B.A.D. -- 'oo d'ya think you are -- the Lone Ranger?
-

Sly Fox charted across the new year, so it's legal, but big oops on the ABC. I will have to consider BAD as my special song, and maybe a slight nod to the movies afterall.

Yeah, I listened to that one and it seemed like a likely candidate. I can't remember a single thing about the song now.

I think Fletch is hilarious. I don't see it as a BHC rip-off at all. Ya gotta like Chevy Chase to enjoy it, that's for sure. A lot. Of course, the love interest is plenty hot too.
-
Whether or not that's the right ID, the guest musicians on the Gilmour album are noteworthy.
Per AMG:
"Gilmour has a stellar band backing him, including Jeff Porcaro (drums), Pino Palladino (bass), and Anne Dudley (synthesizer)...including the gorgeous "Murder," a gentle acoustic track that explodes with some fiery organ by Steve Winwood and concludes with a fierce coda."
-
least-necessary: SRV, too much a staple in '85 sets. Yeah, yeah, revered dead guy, yadda yadda.
-
Happy Birthday Boy, Mark!
You gotta love a song with both a kazoo solo AND a gargling solo.
-
HOLEE F*CK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
UBER UBER BOS for the Beat Farmers!
-
For two Happy Birthday Boys, "I'm a Happy Boy"!
-
hubbahubbahubbahubbahubba! uber-BOS3 "Happy Boy". Ain't it good when sets are goin' your way -- hey hey!
-
Happy Birthday Boy, Mark!
Dave, remember that funny anecdote Leo Kottke told about Country Dick?
-
BOS4 UB40, "Don't Break My Heart" -- this shoulda been a big hit but Top 40 radio had other notions.
-
Happy Birthday Boy, Mark!
Dave, remember that funny anecdote Leo Kottke told about Country Dick?
Fraid not. Can you job my memory (, Fezzick)?

I hear Kenny Chesney knows a lot about country dick.
-
BOS to Love Vigilantes. Annalisa keeps on busting out more New Order!
VHM's so far to Charlie Sexton, the Beat Farmers.
and BOS2 to Kate Bush! Kind of a 'trina...but still always welcome to hear this song.
-
also not exactly a rarity: Kate Bush, running. VHM anyway.
-
I'll give BOS to Kate Bush, even though "Running Up That Hill" is a frequent flyer. Hounds of Love is just an awesome album.
-
Most zeitgeisty of set for me: "Running Up That Hill."
-
HOLEE F*CK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
UBER UBER BOS for the Beat Farmers!
Right there with ya. Hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba.
RIP, Country Dick, ya old reprobate.

The thing that really kept reminding me of BHC was the synth-laden soundtrack, which, to my ears, worked better in BHC. Also, the mansion that is the scene of the climax of BHC shows up in the climax of Fletch! I swear it's the same mansion.

Fraid not. Can you job my memory (, Fezzick)?
For some reason he brought up Country Dick in some other context, and then Kottke (paraphrased) said:
"One time I was in Germany in some ancient ratskeller venue, partially below street level, where the walls in the bathroom were old mortared stones. And on one of the stones I saw graffitti that read, 'This stone is 1,000,000 years old. And today is it's birthday'. And I KNEW that Country Dick Montana had been there."

You should probably see Cop Out -- Kevin Smith got Harold Faltermeyer to do the music, and it's apparently an hommage to his own BHC score
-
I'm also BOS'ing her for getting rid of that annoying Game Over sweeper. (Come to think of it, I don't think I've heard the past week.)

Wow, weird wild stuff.
And what the hell did she say? Mason and Finn? "Lie for a Lie"?
ETA: from Wikipedia, it's Mason and Fenn, the Fenn being from 10CC. And the song in question does include Gilmour on vocals but not guitar. So there you go.

there should be a special circle of Hell for people who do hommages to themselves.

she seems to alternate between that and the one she used today. But she did "game over" yesterday or the day before. I agree it's annoying, tho'.

Ah, OK. I'd guess that Mason is Nick Mason, the Floyd drummer? Yep:
