OMFWTFLOL and HFH: CG played Paul Anka's "You're Having My Baby".  They could've swept it from their playlist, but they wouldn't do it.

a rare gem from the Seekers: "Morningtown Ride", followed by Aretha & George (aka ReeRee and PeePee), "I Knew You Were Waiting".

wow -- A-ha's *other* hit, "The Sun Always Shines on TV". Haven't heard this since the '80s, probably -- obvious in hindsight that this got them the James Bond "Living Daylights" gig.

Nugget #2: Orleans' "comeback" single, "Love Takes Time", with its intro that sounds lifted from the 4 Seasons' "Who Love You". Haven't heard this in ages.

I hadn't thought of that, but you're totally right.  (I have that song on a Dick Bartley comp.)
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

Sadly, KOMY has reconfigured their streaming, and their player no longer works for me; our computers here don't support ".pls" files. So I'm listening to Sac'to's new oldies station KCCL, not bad -- not as quirky as KOMY but also a lot more '70s stuff. Just heard the Delta Lady herself, Rita Coolidge, with her cover of "Higher & Higher", haven't heard that in a dog's age.

CG has been running promos for a new radio documentary series "The Legendary Labels", each show profiling the history of a different record label.  It premieres this Sun at 7pm London time (that's currently 12 noon Pacific, as London isn't on daylight savings yet) with a show about Columbia. May be worth catching.

CGSS gives us Mr Withers, "When I'm Kissin' My Love", followed by a post-Ross Supes gem, "Floy Joy".

Creative Source's fine cover of Bill Withers' "Who is He (and What is He to You)?", which Gaz & I just discussed recently. Apparently there's an epic 13-1/2 minute version; Greg on CGSS gave us 7.

En Vogue's "Hold On", which would be a fine addition to a Morey '90 set (and which is a hundred times better than that Color Me Badd abomination he foists upon us in 1991).
