Title: 13 Sept 2011: it's 1987
Post by: RGMike on September 13, 2011, 08:12:13 AM
No clues as of 8 am -- I'll be in a 10:00 meeting so I'll have to miss this one.

1987, "It's the end of the world as we know it..." - REM

If "Hourglass" gets played, I'm going to cry.

Would love to hear (but probably won't):

Pseudo Echo's "Funkytown"
Company B's "Fascinated"
Partland Brothers' "Soul City"
Breakfast Club's "Right On Track"
Hipsway's "The Honeythief"

All of which went Top 40.

VHM World Party "Private Revolution."  Always found Karl Wallinger's stuff interesting; he sings and plays all instruments by himself, uses multi-tracking.

I was just thinking the same thing about anything from ICEHOUSE's Man of Colours Album.  Holy Hell, if I have to hear Electric Blue, Crazy or anything from that album I might just go postal.

Wow, so many good albums on my 1987 list:

Pixies: Come on Pilgrim
Depeche Mode: Music for the Masses
REM: Document (but a better song like "Finest Worksong")
Young Fresh Fellows: Men Who Loved Music

And yes, Joshua Tree, which is certain to make an appearance. How about "One Tree Hill" for a change? Also, frequent Dave Morey flyer "Strange Advance".

I may have to register for FB just to make recommendations. I don't use it otherwise.

You must be listening via over-the-air radio, which is slightly ahead of the internet stream.  Yes, good to hear Breakout again.

Hmm, I was just thinking that I don't usually mind JM and the Cougars all that much, but this one annoys the crap out of me.  Must be the accordian.  That's not what I call rocknroll.

BOS for Depeche Mode and Sisters of Mercy. WOS Mellencamp and Sting.

Overall, not a bad set. At least it was somewhat different than other 1987 sets (no Crowded House, yay!)

yes, it's treacly, schmaltzy, jingo-istic, faux folk-rock, but I like it. :)

I'd *swear* it has, tho' it's not in the shraytabase and it didn't show up more recently when I did a search.

Not entirely my cup of tea, but absolutely something for everyone, nonetheless (which is what 10@10 should be).  That REM song always reminds me of the Loma Prieta earthquake.  I wanna say Live 105 played it immediately after it happened.  Or maybe I dreamt they did...

that reminds me of the NYC deejay who announced Freddie Prinze's suicide... and then played "Freddie's Dead".

And it's worth noting that this was a 1987 set with no Crowded House, no Squeeze and NO ROBBIE NEVIL!!!  That's an achievement in anybody's book.

listening last nite, I must say it sounded good: the Cher "snap out of it!" clip after Greg Allman made me LOL and even "Little Lies", Moreytrina tho' it is, was used as a political segue after Iran/Contra.
