Title: 22 Jan 2014: it's... 1987
Post by: RGMike on January 22, 2014, 09:25:05 AM
I'm guessing an '80s day. And for a change, I'm right!

For the hell of it, I'll guess that Renee will go cray-cray and debut 2004.  ::)

I think I said this already, but I wonder if we'll get a 1964 set for the 50th anniv of Beatlemania.

"Did you hear that? It's another LN Moreytrina!"  Robbie Robertson is down the river. And we're up the creek.

I'll take it over a couple of songs that get played 2-3 times a day in the regular rotation.

"You like it now, but you'll learn to love it later."

ETA: Admittedly, there's a lot of other material that could be mined on this album, but the fact it gets played at all is fine by me.

I'm rather enjoying this version--got a bit more balls than Bonnie's megaplatinum re-do. And this album eventually spawned Little Village, four or five years later.

And speaking of solo albums that spawned supergroups, I'd guess that the sessions for Cloud Nine played a part in the genesis of the Travelling Wilburys. No complaints with this one.

Robbie Robertson "Somewhere Down The Crazy River"

BOS from me.  I haven't heard it in a while.  It's appeared a few times on 10@10, but not enough
to qualify as a FF.  KFOG certainly played it a lot in 1987.  I also really enjoy the Alarm track, which
is relatively new to me -- I've only heard it occasionally for the past dozen years or so.  I found the
rest of today's set to be largely uninspired, with a moderate LNQ.  Especially George Harrison, since
I've been listening to 103.7's Saturday Morning Beatles for the past few months.
