another unclear posting from AL -- she says it's an "all-glam" set by birthday request but also uses the word "year" so it appears to be '72
-
My guess was 72 but my choices from that fab year would not be classified as "glam." No thank you m'aam.
-
I may have missed the beginning, but BOS the Move's orig "Calif Man", man.
BOS2 Bowie and those Spiders.

California Man was tune #1, so you didn't miss anything, even if your legs were aching.

Woo Hoo! BOS3 gettin' slayed by Slade -- "Mama Beej Weir's all Crazee Now"

Yeah!
-
Yep, sounds like '72 Glam Rock tunes: Bowie, Move, Slade. Expecting some T. Rex and Alice Cooper.
-
BOS4 to may all-time fave, "Mellow Galoot" ;)

And here's yer T. Rex. I had NO idea he was saying "metal guru" for years and years.

The Sweet! - Wig Wam Bam

OMFG! Sweet's "Wig Wam Bam", thank ya ma'am! BOS5, tho'
so will we get Gary Glitter? -- he did have a big hit in '72.
-
The Sweet
Wig Wam Bam? Pretty much a Little Willy retread or pretread. But BOS for rarity.
-

Nonsense syllables make for easy songwriting - something shared by both B-grade bubblegum and B-grade glam.

Great commercial with Big Josh and Big Jim. Prequel to Brokeback Mountain?

Gets my BOS, along with Mott's One of the Boys, the riff from which would be recycled into a BadCo song a few years later.

WOS "One of the Boys." Yawn.
-
WOS "One of the Boys." Yawn.
That was NTM and I agree.
BOS6 a sweet Lou sweet bustout.
-
BOS7 Roxy!

BOS7 Roxy!
Yah, that oboe is rocking!

BOS7 Roxy!
Tough call between Roxy and Slade so far for BOS.
-
I'm realizing that glam as a steady diet doesn't do it for me.
-
This Alice B-side is obviously another bustout -- and it's rare to hear a version of "When You're a Jet" that doesn't sound gay. This is really an amazing set, considering all these songs are from the same year.
The glam-rock parody from Phantom of the Paradise would fit nicely here -- wrong year, tho'.

Serious weirdness from Alice. What's the Jets song doing in there?
-
Badfinger closes us out with some not-very-glam, Dixie dear.

Steals the BOS for me!
What was the guy singing during the commercial? "Floatsam Jetsam?" "Action Jackson?"
-
I'll take the Mott over TRex, and Roxy over everything, no matter what else gets played.
I suppose Virginia Plain is the only song from that Roxy album we can expect KFOG to air, but I would love to hear Ladytron or 2 H.B. come over the air someday.
-
The When You're A Jet cover is NTM, and I have to give it a BOS.
-
BOS Badfinger, "Baby Blue," despite the hideous guitar amps.
-

Ditto the non-glam sentiment, but nice song.
-
Er...someone BOSed Quiet Riot on FB. I'm BOSing Lou Reed and pretty much everything else.
-

sounds like "Black-son Jackson"!

with "Mod Style Hair"! LOL!

I'm going to go hit my head against my desk for a little while.
Enjoy the weekend, y'all.

That set was over way too quick. But it was the only I've been able to listen to all week. Will have to catch the Saturday marathon.

don't tell me -- Scott Fisher? ::)
-

Dang cow-orkers had me miss most of set. Interesting to focus on a genre from one year. Agreed, all-glam-all-the-time wouldn't work, but hey, perhaps that's how one of the current flock of Bay Area classic rock stations plans to break out in the ratings! ;)

Dave (et al): I recorded this set as a QuickTime movie. msg me if you want the deets for getting it.

so this whole set came at the request of "Dave Dirt," an avid Facebook commenter. That's not anyone here is it? I know there's crossover from here to FB, but I think I know who all the various personae are...

Hot!

I have to admit that I had no idea that Quiet Riot had been around in 1972. I had been under the impression that "Cum On Feel The Noize" was off of their first album. Hey, I've learned something, but I don't think I'm better off for it.

The QR remake of "Cum On..." in '83 gets points only because it set up Slade's brief '84 cumback, er, comeback.
Tim, I assume you were being sarcastic?

But a great single indeed!

listening to replay now. It has the requisite chain saw guitars; is it just to pretty to fit in with the other songs?

Gaz remarked the amps are horrible in this one; they certainly are VERY metallic, especially the solo.
Bowie, Mott, and Roxy are almost *always* good. If they define glam, then I'm all over it. The TRex cut wouldn't be my choice for this, but they have to be included- thankfully, it's short. Throw in the Sweet, Slade, that Alice cut and the set takes a gimmicky turn.
Slade? They put on a top hat and makeup, grow out those mutton chops and scream some lyrics and, boom. Glam? Some guy on FB said Slade was horrible in concert back in the day. I can see that.

Funny that we didn't hear Gary Glitter; "RnR Pt 1" was arguably one of the biggest "glitter rock" chart hits that year in the US, along with Alice C's "School's Out".

That wasn't merely a B-side, it was on the LP, which was in the very first batch of LP's I got from my first go round with the Columbia Music Club circa 1975.

my second favorite track in fact. I totally, and I mean TOTALLY, flipped out when I heard this on Saturday. Might be the biggest surprise Annalisa has given me yet.
