I missed the year, though- and I don't know enough to tell from "Let's Go Crazy".

HM Prince, though.

BOS votes for Hyperactive and The Reflex.  We were pretty keen on Thomas Dolby in college.  Funny videos, doncha know.

Thomas Dolby's pretty cool. He's apparently a big Giants fan. When they were playing in the World Series a coupla years back he recorded a version of "She Blinded Me With Science" but changed it to "Blinded By the Giants". He offered it to radio stations to play for free. KFRC's the only one who did.

That was totally cool, and I couldn't believe KFOG -- with its Giants connections -- didn't play it. Of course, maybe the Giants didn't like the song...

Wow, perhaps the least comments on a non-holiday set ever.

Is this the week Mshray is in China? And I know Alicat's on vacay too. And Gaz is otherwise occupied. What's up with Rod?

I seem to recall Rod saaying that work's been busy. So, while he can listen to 10at10- he can't always post.

BOS to the bonus track that I didn't and won't get to hear.  One of the best nuggets of the period's underappreciated sophistipop.
