The Oakland A's win the AL West ---> Kool & The Gang "Celebration"



ETA: Did the A's change their post-game victory song this year?

ETA2: Awww, AL played the single edit and not the full-length album version :P

ETA3: Gotta love AL and her backsell

Nicely done. Only 2 LNs in a 1981 set is a coup, sez me.

No kidding. Something Renee never got. She always did her backsells like she had a cab waiting with the meter running.

Was that really Lon Simmons? It sounded to me like Al Michaels.

per the 'snipes thread, they played a brand-new song Monday nite, by a local band -- a song about Oakland, apparently. And the fan reaction was not great. I always wondered why Kool & the Gang (from Jersey) and not something by Tower of Power. I'll have to track down the new one.

interesting distribution this week (87/73/99/81) -- tomorrow could be late '70s, early '90s, or '60s.
