Dave sez it's our favorite year, but I'm hoping not. Got a meeting at 10:30, so I'll likely only hear half a dozen songs or so.
ETA: OK, cool. I can live with 1981.
-
'81... can't get outta the early '80s today. "Dreaming of Monday" ... gee, Dave how original!
-
1981 sounds a lot better when we kick off with The Jam!

"Kick out the style..."
On Monday I'm usually dreaming about Friday...

this (i'm assuming it's) santana song and the "monday" have strangely similar basslines.
ETA: ok, until rollie started singing.
-
prince charles didn't say "worldly."

Not sure what you mean, but if it's singers, I believe Santana's lead vox at this time was Alex Ligertwood(sp?)

oh......
-
prince charles didn't say "worldly."
I remember actually watching it on TV "live" back in '81. I remember noting that he didn't say "worldy" as well. I remember thinking at the time: "I wonder if this invalidates the whole thing?"
And now I'm creeped out....
-
ooh - tell me about the air traffic controllers! what happened?

I rememeber that Diana got a couple of Charles' middle names switched around, and it was considered quie the gaffe.

Mon dieu! ELO en francais! C'est Le Plus Mal Chanson!

well, it isn't nearly as foreboding as if he had *added* the world "worldly. but it is weird. still, it was his wedding day. he was bound to have some crows feet.
-

One of Ronnie the Popular's famous union-busting moves. He had the entire population of striking air traffic controllers fired, permanently.

"crows feet"? or cold feet? or cold crow's feet?
Actually, Camilla's the one with crows feet...
-

Ronnie, the only union leader ever elected to the presidency, broke up the PAATCO (air traffic controllers) union and summarily fired everybody because they had a no-strike clause in their contract. Of course the fact that their primary grievance was about unsafe conditions was lost on Ol' Mr. Teflon, as was the further fact that the consequences of his firing everybody made the whole situation much worse.

one of the more interesting bass lines of Sting's career.

I got tired of waiting, so I checked AllMusic and they concur as well. What do I win?

Yikes, a Genesis trifecta today (The Peak, The Drive and now KFOG).

All Righta! BOS for Rick James.

BOS by default: Mr James.

Heh. I was gonna say "(sniff) (sniff) Smells like Phil..." or something like that. Glad I didn't lest I get jinxed.
So Rick James thinks "incense, wine & candles" make for a "freaky scene"? Geez, Rick. You've got a surprisingly low threshhold for "freaky"... :D

I think Rick knows a freaky scene when he sees it. Or creates it himself.

I'm now hearing this song for the 2nd time today on wlng.com -- I used to think he was saying "the kind of girl you read about/In Newsweek magazine" and I wondered "what's so kinky about that?"
-

Well, y'know. Maybe if she rolled it up and hit him with it or something.
He's saying "new wave magazine", right? I never bothered to look it up. Hell, it just might be "Newsweek" for all I know.
-
well, this very kinky girl is off on a road trip to durham, north carolina via salt lake, boulder, kansas city, and memphis. i'll be back sometime next week. keep on proxying me, baby.

Beams of joy and success to you on your trip across the land, and thank you for removing the sig line about Whitney's doodie bubbles!

Have fun on the road again, POC!

I should add a couple of names to my name-drop trivia list: Fab 5 Freddy & (Grandmaster) Flash.
Fab 5 Freddy also shows up in MC Hammer's quasi-cover of "Have You Seen Her" (he got name-dropped 'cuz "Yo! MTV Raps" had revitalized his visibility several notches). (Cue the Eugene Record homage.)
Coincidentally enough, the CD I brought with me to work today was a Grandmaster Flash remix collection. Higher, baby!

And of course the opening act we saw at the Robert Plant show last week was the guy who played guitar on all those early Sugarhill rap singles, including "White Lines". There ARE no coincidences.
BTW, belated VHM to the Undertones, featuring the inimitable vocals of Feargal Sharkey, who nobody mentioned this morning.
