wow, this set was Oldies 103.7-meets-KFox. Given the TON of interesting suggestions that were ignored, I'm once again flummoxed by what exactly DC is trying to do.

Well, there IS a reason those two broadcast stations exist, and not something like The Vault on Sirius.  People aren't that hard core.

"Meet the new boss, same as the old boss" = false equivalency?

I'll have to WOS Who, only because this is indeed one song I don't need to hear again.

Which is fair, since I gave WOS to Brown Sugar for basically the same reason.  But I've never really tired completely of Don't Get Fooled...

You would think though, that with this being 10@10, a mix of say two golden oldies, two KFox staples, two forgotten hits from the time and four others wouldn't be that much of a stretch.

I'll also admit that I never get tired of the Doors. Hell, even give me the AM version of "Light My Fire"!
I thought the Doors were spent by this time.

No, I think LA Woman came out in '71.
I meant creatively spent.  They put some stuff out for sure.

Might have seemed so at the time, but looking back, there are still a few gems on LA Woman.
I actually meant exactly that!

Ah, OK. Didn't parse that way when I first read it.
Let's get right to it.

And again: if Dred's allowed to be off the wall in his "Connected" sets, why must AL be reined-in? I see no logic in that.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Well, we could debate that, but close enough for a rock song.
