Post by: sundaygal on October 06, 2011, 03:43:25 PM
And here I was gonna suggest some Gang of Four, but alas, it's songs pertaining to the ocean or sky.  I'm gonna suggest "Vapour Trail" by Ride.  Great song, great band...too bad KFOG probably doesn't have a copy of it.

Here's the song (killer drums!):

It'd be cool if she played the Neville Brothers version of that. Won't happen.

60+ requests already... I probably won't bother this time.

Indeed, this was one of the better sets AL's produced since the Dark Ages, errrr, the Constantine Era commenced.  At least 3 or 4 rarities. I think I gotta go with Paul Pena for BOS, simply because his version is so different than the one we've all heard a zillion times. And 'cause the version we heard didn't mention any funky kicks, if you know what I mean and I think you do.
