Title: 23 April 2010: 1994
Post by: RGMike on April 23, 2010, 09:37:14 AM
per AL's FB clues. I've suggested Prince's "Most Beautiful Girl" and anything from Rhythm Country & Blues, but I've gotten 3 requests honored this week (and a promise of a 4th on the next Movie Monday), so I won't be upset if she gives someone else a shot.

Nice TOTHK from Chrissie & Co: "Night in My Veins".

You took the acronyms right out of my keyboard.  BOS1.

2 in a row from my best-of-'94 mixtape: NRBQ, channeling John Hiatt on "A Little Bit of Bad"

I had no idea who or what this was.  When I hear something unfamiliar in early '90s sets, I usually assume it's Del Amitri.

"HE'S GOT HIS CHEST ON MY BACK
ACROSS A NEW CADILLAC"

so, like Toni Basil before her, Chrissie takes it like a man?  meant to say BOS1.

This Toad tune is NTM, I think -- don't remember it being a KFOG or Live105 mainstay in '94.

BOS to my favorite Toad the Wet Sprocket song.  Hits 106 was playing it all the time when I started listening to the radio.

Who's this?  It sounds like Colbie Caillat, yecch...but she wasn't around back then, so it's more likely Lisa Loeb.

Shawn Colvin?  Makes sense.  I agree it's not one of her better songs.

so far, most of this set is making 94 sound really dreary.  Kurt Cobain died in 94, right?  might we get something Nirvana related?

of the women who dominated Triple-A in this period, I prefer her to Sarah McLachlan.

on KFOG, it *was* really dreary. Some Live105-iness is needed (Weezer or James or Morrissey).Not to mention Salt'n'Pepa or something like that.

Bet we hear some Melisseridge.

I welled up when I saw it in a theater that year, but it doesn't hold up for me today.

WOS2 to Addicted in Chains.

OMG...the Beautiful People, title track to If 60s were 90s!  Uber-BOS2!!!

I found a used copy of the now out of print (since Hendrix's estate sued) album at Amoeba Berkeley.  Sadly nothing else on it is quite this good.

ah yes: Beautiful People, "If '60s Was '90s" -- Jimi repurposed for a new generation.  BOS2.

BTW, radical, I was under the impression the Hendrix estate gave their blessing to this. That was the hook at the time. Did they change their mind?

BOS2 "Supersonic."  That opening sound of clanking bottles (?) sends me right back to the first time I heard this song, on a Cleveland alt-rock station; I was instantly smitten.  (I got over it.)

Hmm, I did read somewhere that the estate stopped Jimi's work from being public domain...but I think it was just in a customer review of the CD, so wasn't a definite source, meaning it's quite possible that I could be wrong.

Not one of Oasis's better songs IMO, but it's not one of their overplayed ones either so I'll give it a pass.

WOS to Green Day mostly for being a rather uninspired song to break the gloomy streak, which I was actually starting to get into.

This Pavement song (a Facebook request from somebody) is NTM. But it sure sounds like '94 to me.

Kudos to AL for avoiding "Kaboom headliner" you-know-who.

Pavement wasn't on my radar back then, and now I regret it.  Saw Steven Malkmus at an Amoeba in-store a while back and I now own one of his solo records (the one w It Kills).  kudos to AL for taking this FB request.
