Title: 19 Aug 2013: it's... "a really really old one" (1963!)
Post by: RGMike on August 19, 2013, 09:55:56 AM
"I have no idea why we're doing this year, but someone will appreciate it"

'63 for the first time sine I dunno when. The Morey era, certainly.

"I have no idea why we're doing this year, but someone will appreciate it"

'64? '63?

Sounds promising -- if it is '63, I hope I had a part in inspiring it!  :)

BOSFRA Stones, "Come On".  As I just noted on FB, '63 had already been removed from "the Big Wheel" when I started listening in '92, so this is pretty amazing.

BOS2 Ray Charles.

makes me think of hanging out in Monta Vista (the wrong side of the tracks) with some kids I traded pigeons with.  They showed me the 'dirty verse' of Louie Louie!

Beach Boys ripping off Chuck Berry.
I was just discussing this with another teacher the other day.  As I remember, they initially ripped him off, but eventually gave him some songwriter credit on the album.  I can now go to wikipedia and see if I have it right!

Dave Clark Five "Glad All Over"

ETA: Like The Beatles "I Saw Her Standing There", this was released in the UK in 1963, but didn't chart in the US until '64.

Amazing the sound quality difference between this and the extremely muddy and flat-sounding Dave Clark Five.

While there were a couple of obvious choices, this seems like a must-listen for tonight.

a miracle it happened at all, really. Given we never visit '63, even the "early Sixties for Dummies" choices sounded good.  For balance we should get 2003 tomorrow.

'twould be the perfect opportunity, methinks.  Maybe I'll finally get my Junior Senior suggestion.

In case you needed confirmation, 1963 does not appear at all (as a 10-song year) in the Shraytabase. And neither does '64.  Dave did do a '60s Vertical tasting ('61 to '70) in Oct of 2007.  AL did '64 a couple times and also a couple of "Sixties Chartbusters" sets.  We've gotten '64 from RR (or maybe it was Rosalie sitting in?) and now we've hit '63 in the Renee era.

Don't hold your breath for '62.  ;)

'64 was visited three times during RR's tenure: October 23rd (Rosalie filled in); April 12th; and June 25th.

Anyone know what the response was like over at Gsnipes?

That would seem to indicate then that she's still operating under the thumb of the PD. At least this PD has a better sense of how the franchise should work.

But still, that's a really really lame thing to say on the air -- I hope she got reamed out by her boss about that little crack.

Yeah, at the very least, it's impolitic to call out your station's decision maker in public like that. Not to mention your listeners who like music of that era.

eh, a little lame that she's not toeing the line officially, but showing some musical preferences is sorta OK.  Deejays have personalities, and occasionally they're cool or fun.   Maybe she laughed a little after that quip and said "Just kidding!" which of course makes all transgressions a-ok in today's world.
