No guesses. I don't have the sense of what's due that I did when Dave was doing the sets. He was much more predictable.

well, it's '89: please make it bearable, AL.  Was/Not Was? Neneh Cherry? Kon Kan? those would be my '89 wish-list.

VHM the Big O to start.

Come on, AL, let's kiss these 'Trinas goodbye.   Rob did '95 on the Peak today and we got Del Amitri there too.

BOS for XTC and "King for a Day".  Nice stereo in the headphones.

Most 'meh' of set: Kiss This Thing Goodbye. I always associate this with 91 or 92, when AAA really started to take hold, but it's in the DB twice in '89, so guessing it was released that year.

Ah, here's an enthusiastic BOS candidate: XTC, King For a Day. Just one appearance previously (in 2006) so a solid rarity.

Another BOS candidate: Westaboig and the 'Mats, dreamin' they were Surfer Joe. Not their best, but catchy nonetheless.

It's BOSes back to back!

BOS to Bob Mould, "See a Little Light."  I adored this when it came out; it got regular spins on MTV's 120 Minutes.

OMFG! I believe this is Bob Mould--not quite raw enough for Husker Du. Can't name the song though.

Make that BOSes back to back to back!

I'll give it a VHM for rarity -- this was ignored by NYC alt-radio at the time; dunno why.

WOS Tracy Chapman. It's been all downhill since the first LP IMHO.

One more BOS for Lou Reed's Dirty Boulevard. Three appearances prior to this one, and it's won the BOS vote in two of them.

Bustout of set: De La Soul!  They should have had several Top 40 hits, not just this one.

A few rappers still have interesting things to say - Lupe Fiasco, Mos Def - but sadly, they don't sell well at all.

wow. not a bad set with Bob Mould, XTC & De La Soul.  I would have flipped out for each of those.  And I would have I'd Bob Mould pomptly because I own and recently re-listened to that song on Rhino's MTV 120 Minutes compilation.
