Hmm, only one year back from yesterday.

those days are gone, apparently. at least temporarily.  But yeah, its unusual to heave consecutive years back-to-back.  "numbers add up to nothin'... "

yes, he IS a looker..!  I wouldn't have thought he was your type, though.  Interesting!

This Santana song is a blast from the past.

.. and this Tarney-Spencer group is another good'n.

I've never "done" a rock, but this song is so good I might try it some day.   

Ok, Buster Poindexter (David Johansen) was channeling Time Curry, no?

WKRP was such a great show.  One of my cow-orkers was promoted to Manager of Support a year or two back, but there aren't enough real offices for all the management.  So the took out a cube wall, and gave him his own two cube space instead.  Amused, I told him he should get some tape to further deliniate his "office".  And, since he's in his 30s, I had to explain the Les Nessman reference.

Fortunately, he's a good sport.

Given that we heard the Flying Lizards on  Tax Day, we didn't need to hear them again until next April.  LN.

You can have him.  :P

Speaking of Ontario-ans, I guess I don't mind Bruce Cockburn's voice, although I can't say I'm crazy over it either.

Yeah, nice to hear this, but they did a few other songs (not many, but some).   Would be great to hear Transmission, for instance.  Love Will Tear Us Apart belongs in the "Rock songs that tranlsate well into lounge act songs" list  (see also, Door's Touch Me)

re: the date (from wikipedia):

"It was written in August 1979, and debuted when the band supported Buzzcocks on their UK tour in September and October 1979. ....
The song was first released in June 1980"

Listening to today's set on SoundCloud...

https://soundcloud.com/kfog/06-21-13-10-10-1979?in=kfog/sets/10-10-1

Wow, I had the WKRP theme in my upcoming 1980 set.

I originally had a Joy Division tune in my 1980 set (the 12" single version of "She's Lost Control"),
but I dropped it in favor of another New Wave track.
