Gaz will be shocked that someone specifically requested Macca's "Coming Up" -- "NOT the 'live' version". WTF?

Meanwhile AL was on FB flogging the "Fresh Tracks" you can hear on KFOG after dark.  Someone's feeling K-Fox creeping up behind 'em?

AL mentions Walkmen and Rollerblades in the intro before we get Dire Straits Skateaway.  I like the verses of this song, but not the choruses.

btw, it seems Rollerblades weren't really in production until 83, so you'd be on your old-style four wheel skates for this one.

kind of fitting, no?

Turn on my V.C.R.
Same one I've had for years
James Brown on the T. A. M. I. show
Same tape I've had for years
I sit in my old car
Same one I've had for years
Old battery's running down
It ran for years and years

Turn on the radio
The static hurts my ears
Tell me where would I go
I ain't been out in years
Turn on the stereo
It's played for years and years
An Otis Redding song
It's all I own

was just reading about Behind My Camel.  It won a grammy for Rock Instrumental in 82!  (weird qualifications allowing compositions in late 80 and 81 to be considered).  Andy Summers played bass and Stewart Copeland played drums, reluctantly.  Both Sting and Copeland hated the song.

Indeed I have not been paying attention.  I've been working feverishly here for the last couple months, and it's likely to continue for another couple.  But I'm making some time today :-).  Really good set today, I gotta say.
