Title: 7 Jan 2014: it's... 1981
Post by: RGMike on January 07, 2014, 09:40:12 AM: Since yesterday was a very good early'70s set, I'm sure it's back to the '90s today. (But I'd love to be wrong.)

ETA - and I am: 1981 -- let's see how this compares to The Peak's stellar '81 set yesterday. Nice TOTHK: Pretenders, "Cuban Slide"

Post by: RGMike on January 07, 2014, 10:07:31 AM: There's a hole in this somewhere: LN1, Genesis, although the segue from Speak'n'Spell to "ABACAB" is clever. Intentional?

the EXTREMELY long version of "Tainted LN" didn't help.

Yeah, it's longer - "Abacab" and (especially) the Soft Cell medley were extra long in length.

Forgot to tune in this morning -- doesn't look half bad. Even the LNs are some of my favorites (Tommy 2Tone, Soft Cell, BOC).
