off topic:
Urth or others, whats the difference in using the word continuously vs. continually?

eg:  In an effort to _____________improve its product, ABC Company reserves the right to...


Continually means "ongoing" while continuously means "constant"--differing degrees. I'd go with the former.

That'll be five dollars.

I thought the Delbert McClinton song Giving It Up for Your Love was from 1980-1981. I think it charted in early 1981. I didn't listen to today's set so I don't know if it's the same song as the 1980 version or perhaps his album was released in 1979.

You are correct, sir!  It charted in late '80 and peaked in early '81. I've no idea if the LP was orig a '79 release. Good call!

Dave prefaced the replay with "possibly the best set of the week" -- I'd say it's a dead heat between this and '73 (which was up first today; hope Alicat was up early).  Any week in which I get to hear Tim Curry *4 times* (3 "I Do the Rock" plays and a "Time Warp" from Ginger) is a good week.
