Probably won't be around for this one, so take copious notes! Hopefully it will be a good one today.

Does anybody know the stream address that doesn't use the player? I can't find it anymore. My company is supposedly not allowing streaming, but in reality, it blocks websites that it knows about. So I can sometimes get away with the stream URLs in Winamp. Thanks!

I take it that rules out iHeart?  Because KFOG is on there too. I use an old Walkman to listen to 10@10 over-the-air.

Yeah, so it would seem. I haven't used iHeart, but our filter recognizes it.

So is the streamtheworld.com stream out? This is the one I use, 'cause it loads up quickly and doesn't have the annoying ad before the stream kicks in:

I suppose I shouldn't look askance at any 1960s set, but having this today means it may be a few weeks before we get to have an Annalisa-created 60s set in which to revel.

I'm gonna predict her first week will be a 5-decade sweep, possibly including our first 2004 excursion.

my wife and I and a singer who was the teacher of a classroom of multiple-disability kids played both the end of Tommy and Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In.  Quite a memorable experience.

"I want You (She's So Heavy)" is perhaps my least-fave -- I find it turgid and endless -- but when i figured out years later how much "Darling" sounds like "Please Come Home for Xmas" I was floored.

I don't dislike it, but I'm not an avid fan either. I could hear Wings doing this. Possibly one of the things that drove a wedge between John and Paul (besides Yoko)?

I see no reason to think that, particularly since it seems that there has been some loosening of
what is acceptable w.r.t. repeating decades.  But it brings up yet another sign that the selections
aren't truely random -- if they were, the gaps between successive visits to the same year would
show more variation.  In any event, I think that we'll get a pre-1972 set within the first couple
of weeks.

The Midnight Cowboy clip is something of a frequent flyer, especially during the DM era.

Lots of room to go deeper for a great Tommy cut.  The Acid Queen would be a bust-out,
as would Sally SimpsonUnderture has only appeared once.

It was a somewhat pleasant set, but in total was not even the sum of its parts.  A bit of a
disappointment considering that 1969 is one of the strongest years.

It's really hard for me to think of any Beatles songs that I never really liked, but this is one of them...

"I want You (She's So Heavy)" is perhaps my least-fave -- I find it turgid and endless -- but when i figured out years later how much "Darling" sounds like "Please Come Home for Xmas" I was floored.

never took to I Want You or Oh, Darlin. They must've been smoking some ponderous weed back then.

I'll be the voice of dissent here -- I quite like both of them.  "Oh, Darlin" was my drunken campfire song when I was younger (I'm sure if you were a neighbor camper, you probably didn't care for it either).  And I like the heaviness repetition at the end of "I Want You (She's So Heavy)".  It's as close to headbanging rock as the Beatles ever got.
