Tue 4/24/12: 1970

their site was down this morning -- a nice but not earth-shattering 1970 set was played: "Sweet Baby James" gets a VHM; BOSFRA to Jimi/Band o'Gypsies live version of "Them Changes"; OMGWTF Frijid Pink's "House of the Rising Sun". Otherwise: CSNY, Beatles, CCR, Joni, Guess Who, Doors. Proxy of Geoff: "Oh Well"

Wed 4/25/12: 1986

BOS "Absolute Beginners"; the rest: standard-issue '86... Stevie Nicks, OMD, TalkTalk, Palmer, Cocker (or "C--ker" as Tune Genie's censoring software has it), Mike + Mechanics, Stones, Prince.

VHM ZZT's "Rough Boy", which I still hear as an Eagles parody.

Thur 4/26/12: 1977

Rob makes my day with Graham Parker's cover of "Hold Back the Night"- BOS. Also: PG, Garland Jeffreys' fab "35mm Dreams" (BOS2), Iggy, Boz, Foreigner, F.mac, Kinks.

WOS: Kansas. "nothing equals suspenders!"

BOS3 Clash, "I'm so Bored w/the USA"

This one is worth catching on the replay, kids.

ETA: listening on the PM side -- BOS4 Kinks, "Life on the Road" a serious rarity. "I was standing with the punks in Praed Street/when a muscleman came my way/he said 'hey are ya gay? can ya come out to play?'/and like a fool I went and said OK"
