11 June 2012: AL's back and it's... 1991

[Davefish]

Whoa, now here's something you never woulda heard on KFrOG: BOS for "Little Fluffy Clouds". I think this is The Orb, right?

No idea -- thanks for the ID!  I find stuff like this with endlessly-repeated samples... mildly annoying.

Actually, I heard this song on RP but it was a different version with a lot less of the sampling. Not nearly as Max Headroomy. This version is less good.

[Davefish]

keep sailing, Bob!

BAD are also rather LN at this point.  Or maybe I'm just cranky.

There's something about Bob. BAD is kinda cool, but this song is just b-a-d.

[RGMike]

uber-WOS "Rico Suave". Easily one of the worst singles of the '90s.

[Davefish]

Hahaha, BOS for Hit from Hell "Rico Suave".

ETA: Haha, reverse high-five, Mike.

Hmmm... about a 50/50 split between LNs (2, 4, 8, 9, and 10) and rarities. Kind of unusual in the sense that the LNs clustered towards the end. But overall, not a bad way to come back from a week off.

the Orb was, I'm assuming, a bustout? 

The only good thing about the Clarence/Anita --> "Rico Suave" segue is that is wasn't Clarence/Anita --> "Breaking the Girl".

Haha, I just realized something.  We got Little Fluffy Clouds into Learning to Fly!  Cute.

Also, something as uber LN-y and guitar-y as Learning to Fly actually didn't sound too bad right after something as obscure and electronic-y as Little Fluffy Clouds.

Globe, Rush, & Should I Stay or Should I Go--only one of these needs to exist.
