KHUM/CG/KPOO/KRSH/VIP/LNG etc week of 8/21/06

another station to try:

www.kcdx.com

they're in Phoenix, they're a classic rocker, more or less, with a very wide-ranging playlist.

I just switched over to these guys and the first song is Trower, "Bridge of Sighs".... followed by Poco, "Good Feelin' to Know". That's impressive.

You must have already discovered this earlier, I already had the station in my iTunes list.  I just caught the tail end of a Danny Kirwan Fleetwood Mac song, but I didn't hear enough to make the final ID!

Dylan doing "Man of Constant Sorrow."  I don't know if I've ever heard this before.  Not sure what album it's on.

His first, self-titled:

Well, I shoulda known...I wasn't really too aware of this song until the 1976 Kaleidoscope album:

The AMG reviewer is relatively clueless, but at least they confirm this record's existence!

JJ on KPOO never fails to amaze me with something I've never heard before and tonite it's "You Can't Hide Love", an R&B mid-charter in 1973 for Creative Source.  Three years later, as "Can't Hide Love" (without the "You"), it would be a hit for Earth Wind & Fire -- I never knew EWF's was a cover!

And now here's Main Ingredient, 2 years before "Everybody Plays the Fool", covering Curtis Mayfield's "I'm So Proud".

Followed by Gene Chandler's groovy "Groovy Situation". Canyadigit canyadigit canyadigit canyadigit?

Little Steven's show has just begun: it's his annual salute to "Louie, Louie" -- the birth of Garage Rock AND Frat Rock ("garage rock's inbred, less intelligent brother" sez Steven) in one fell swoop!

First movie clip of the evening (was there any doubt?):

"Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, son."
