The Peak, 4/3/08: It was 1981, I think

[Gazoo]

Basing the year guess mostly on the Go-Gos.  Some of this is unfamiliar to me, including the NRBQ that I'm sure Urth is sorry to have missed.  A little something for everyone:

Lindsey Buckingham    Trouble
Tubes    Talk To Ya Later
Gary "U.S." Bonds    Jole Blon
U2    I Fall Down
Go-Go's    We Got The Beat
Who    Another Tricky Day
Tommy Tutone    867-5309/ Jenny
Pretenders    Porcelain
Genesis    Man On The Corner
NRBQ    Captain Lou

Yep, sure sounds like '81. And I surely would have loved to hear "the Cap'n"--"he's got sharp teeth like Rin-tin-tin"--definitely a regional hit though--you'd never heard that on a West coast station (and in fact, I never have).

and I have never ever heard that Pretenders tune on the air.  Wow!
