'68 can never ever suck. But there are some painfully overexposed suggestions there.

Got a good feeling, tho' -- made my 3 suggestions ("Can't Find the Time" by Orpheus, TJ's "Help Yourself" and Tammy's "D-I-V-O-R-C-E") and saw that 2 other songs from my wishlist were requested by others ("Some Velvet Morning" and the Association's unfairly forgotten "Time For Living").

Yeah, "Hey Jude" is, uh, unmentionable.

I have mercifully not made any of my typical requests.  Being my HS graduation year, I'll probably be happy, regardless of the angle.  There was so much in '68.

Did anyone request any Small Faces??  My ex had a copy of Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake on vinyl...I remember the cover being completely round.  Should've nicked it from him!   ;)

not that I saw.  :(   Afterglow would be a nice choice.  Or Lazy Sunday.   Anything from side one, actually. I can't really see 10at10 featuring anything from side two of ONGF.

I've seen that release at Amoeba, and I've stood there fondling the case until I get dirty looks (which happens quite a bit at Amoeba, now that I think of it..)  I could never pull the trigger and make the purchase, though.  I have too many DCDs at this point and need to find a way to cut weight.

Best ep of this (half-)season; they've been slightly off, IMHO, but that's understandable given their preoccupation with Book of Mormon. And clearly it was a metaphor for how they view themselves.

barely scraped into the Top 40 (#39 peak) so I'll wager a lot of folks never got to hear it.

And I take full responsibilty for geoff's "jaded and spoiled" comment -- the thing is, I listen to/monitor all 5 10@10s every day and warhorses like "Matchstickmen" and "Mrs Robinson" show up regularly, so, yeah, i'd rather hear something I've never heard on 10@10 before given the choice  ;)
