5 Aug 2014: it's... 1970

I was daydreaming, I think they just played "I Dig a Pony"  into a Led Zeppelin ad  > "Immigrant Song"

I got waylaid by work, but that sounds right to me.

Love Story clip > When You Dance I Can Really Love, Neil

RAWK

Dusty Springfield "A Brand New Me"

holy crap! one from my wish list! (tho'I didn't ask for it today)  Faboo.

And "Ma Belle Amie" (or "Ma Bellamy" as we used to call it) was probably a UK hit in '69, but not in the US until early '70.

I take it we didn't get the Curtis Mayfield?

ETA, OTOH, "The Boxer" actually *is* from '69, that's when the single charted (but it resurfaced on the Bridge Over Troubled Water LP).

[Here'sToYa!]

This set seemed to have its share of old familiars, but I enjoyed it.

We did not.

We did not.

Nor did we get "Rubber Duckie"...

Per AL on FB, Led Zeppelin got BOS; VHM Dusty Springfield.

We did not.

AL sez she walked out of the house this am and left half the music she'd meant to bring, along with a large cup of coffee she also seemed to be missing profoundly.

although I heard the first 2 on an AT40 Aug 1970 show this weekend, I won't complain since 10@10 can always use more soul. "Apeman" is pretty well-travelled here, as are the Joni and (probably) the Zep. In all, not bad and I look forward to the replay. As dischead noted, it is a year with a gazillion possibilities -- we could've easily gotten 10 bustouts that would not have been obscure in the least. I repeat my contention that New PD Guy is > DC. (but get back to me after we see who he hires for mornings)

Once again, [complaint #8], although as noted we did get some rawk at the end.  Overall though, it was still [complaint #3].

 

Dig A Pony was played on the last visit to 1970 on June 5th, and we also got Cecilia from S&G's Bridge... in that
set as well.

Over the past few weeks I've been making notes and accumulating potential tracks... I can assemble a list of ten
artists who had releases in both 1970 and 1971 and create a set of bust-outs from the same ten artists for both
years.  Admittedly, some of these groups -- like Jethro Tull, Chicago, Paul McCartney, The Doors, Joni Mitchell -- are
a bit obscure...

I'm told that AL explained she played "Dig a Pony" by accident -- cued it up instead of "Two of Us". oops.

This was my FB request post:

Some big-name bands had some excellent tracks in '70 that don't get a lot of airplay. For example:
The Doors, Waiting for the Sun or Peace Frog/Blue Sunday
Pink Floyd, Fat Old Sun
The Velvet Underground, Oh! Sweet Nuthin'
The Stooges, Down on the Street or Loose or T.V. Eye
