Title: 25 Feb 2014: it's... 1997
Post by: RGMike on February 25, 2014, 09:00:05 AM
'90s would appear to be overdue but '85 threw me off yesterday (esp since it was a good set with 3 excellent bustouts). Whothehell knows.

Forecasting years on 10@10 used to be somewhat predictable, but not lately. Gotta give props to whoever's scheduling the sets for the week for keeping us off-balance.

(DM was quite consistent for a few years; if it had been more than 5 weeks since a given year popped up you could pretty much count on it appearing within a week or so. Particularly for 70s and 80s years.)

ah, 1997. I'm kinda sorry to be right.   Theme from The Sopranos def sez '97 to me.

Was thinking the same thing. I recall hearing it a lot in the latter part of '99 and early '00. I think that was when The Sopranos were really taking off, so it would make sense. 

Just checked: The Sopranos first aired in January of '99, so it would make sense that by late that year Woke Up This Morning would be pretty well assimilated into the public consciousness.

and safe to say the tune got zero airplay in '97.

I believe Dave played Hanson a few times (although he seemed to prefer "Where's The Love"). Don't know if AL ever did, but RR has brought them back. Would really be impressed if "This Time Around" came up in a Y2K set.

Well, so far we've had Blur and Oasis, which are rum-appropriate, plus the wacky U2 cover. And A3 doesn't exactly contradict (now, if we get Edwin McCain, that would be different). So, I'm not sure how you'd quantify that question, but so far this has been a good 97 set.

"How's It Gonna Be": Not particularly exciting, but I liked it (and at least it's not "Semi-Charmed Life").

Erykah Badu: Woah Nelly, is that a BOSFRA!! (And it's a non-Tracy Chapman/FYC black person!)

One of the more interesting things going on in '97. Gotta give props to whoever is programming this set. Save for the Blur it's been pretty decent. Even the 3EB didn't annoy me.

Another one I associate with a later year--in this case, 98, but still. OK Computer came out in '97 but I don't think it really got much traction til the following year.

He only followed "Elegantly Wasted" 50%. Until now I didn't realize this was a foreshadowing concept album!
