TANC: Just went back and found Ben Fong-Torres' interview with Annalisa from last summer. This passage rang a bell:

"They wanted to change it from 'Nonstop Rock' to 'Untamed Radio,' and the new program director - a woman - wanted me to say, 'Rock 'n' roll with a hard-on,' and I wasn't going to do that. So one morning, I put all the phones on hold, played whatever I wanted - it was the Replacements' 'Achin' to Be' - and left. You could do that, then."

So Achin' To Be is an AL-fave. The whole piece is here, if anyone wants to read it:
