The Jerk --> "Queen of Hearts", the Dave Edmunds version.  VHM. It'd be nice to hear Juice Newton sometime.

more Jerk --> "Lonesome Loser". LRB. ("beaten by the Queen of Hearts every time" -- it's so nice when there's actual THOUGHT being put into segues.)

it's a Jerk thang today.  Oy, Gloria Gaynor. Truly a song I never need to hear again.  uber-uber-LN, but other than having played "Dreaming" in consecutive '79 sets, AL's doing well today.

Is JJ an LN?  Kinda -- something other than the hit from this fab LP would been nice.

"It's over already?" asks AL. Yup, under 40 minutes.

ETA: She could have gone over 40 if she played the LOOOOOONG version of "I Will Survive"

thank heaven for small favors.  ;)  I guess it played into the theme she was constructing but a less-overexposed disco nugget woulda been divine.

Ugh.  This week's 1982 set may have been lackluster, but I found large parts of today's show
completely off-putting.  When a 1976 set is shaping up to be the second-best of the week, it's
a sign of how dismal the situation is.
