I'll be in a meeting, so of course that means it'll probably be a '60s day.

Looks like a must-listen for the replay tonight. So far, anyway.

Supremes, Love Child

Social consciousness!

I've been compiling the Top 100 by week for the 1960's. Never occurred to me how often the Supremes were #1.

I've got a 10am meeting too, so have to hope it gets posted on the KFOG page sooner rather than later. Hoping for good things, y'all!

1-6: impressive

7-10: diminishing returns. (Seriously, how many times have we heard "Hey Jude" in the RR era alone, much less overall?)

Hey Jude has appeared eleven times overall, with three spins by Renee. The Cream track
has only been played once before, while Love Child is definitely a FF.

Traffic's 40,000 Headmen is today's bust-out.

I heard Renee announce this with the added: "You guys are so predictable. The Beatles get BOS."

Renee will keep playing it if it keeps getting BOS...

Post by: ggould on February 03, 2014, 10:38:52 PM: The reason I posted the pics of the Fillmore/Winterland posters was that 4 of the bands in this 10@10 were represented, 3 of them on one of them! But, it made me wonder if H. P. Lovecraft has ever been heard here. "The White Ship" was a total staple of KMPX back in '67. Dischead?

I confess ignorance. The wiki description intrigues me.

I imagine The White Ship sounds dated and corny to others, but to a 16-17 year old boy listening to KMPX in the suburbs of what would someday be called Silicon Valley, it was like a beacon to another world.
