VHM America, providing something for Janet Jackson to sample 25 years later.
I love playing this for my students, then seeing the looks on their faces when they realize it's not Janet Jackson.

There was a 'snipe comment to the effect that AL seems to post her threads later in the evening, and was that being done to cut down on requests. But it seems to me that she rarely plays requests for bustouts -- the requests that get played are for tried and true 10@10 staples -- so it doesn't matter when she posts.

And I think this is the primary difference between AL versions 1 and 2 - I do think in the previous era one of the requests would get played, and more than occasionally it would be something that wasn't a staple.

Yes, and iirc, a few of the regulary serial requesters noticed that she was more responsive to the calls for deep cuts than she was for the ones we've heard a bazillion times. So perhaps this is a conscious effort to avoid irritating the general populace?
Let's get right to it.

Yeah, I can see even the Stones fanatics over in GS-land having a few gripes about this one.

On the other hand, she redeems herself with Sweet Lou! Segue o' the day, too!
