Old-timey Tax song that I can never remember the name of.

Gene Autry apparently (!)

Besides, it's the Beatles from one of their most creative periods, imo. You can't complain about the Beatles. (Although we probably have.)

Replace 'Beatles' with 'Kinks' and ditto.
Let's get right to it.

Seinfeld "it's a write-off" --> PSBs "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)". Wasn't expecting this one, so BOS4.

Flying Lizards -- I really never need to hear this one again but it's kinda like not playing "Jingle Bells" at Xmastime.
It is quite awful, isn't it?
I don't think it's awful -- I loved it in 1979 -- but it's way overexposed.
I've always enjoyed it too, actually. But listening to it today...musically speaking, it's not good.

What I find interesting about this version is that is much more constructed by editing sounds
together than by playing instruments.

So in addition to no mixed case, irregular punctuation, and misspelling, we have also
been lacking the BOS notation of late.  The quality of the set list postings on the KFOG
page has dropped off a cliff recently.


ETA:  And the AbFab clip was before track 6, not track 8.  There was also what sounded
like a clip from Friends before the Gene Autry ditty.
