18 February 2015: It's 1989!
« on: February 17, 2015, 04:15:50 PM »
Request thread is up, I made my usual requests. Maybe with some seeming new freedom AL might play one or more of them!

Do the Right Thing --> "Let Love Rule", LNnny K. -- multi appearances (in both '89 and '90) and of course he's ubiquitous on KFOG generally

And he's had a decent enough career that they could pick something beyone "Let Love Rule" or "American Woman", which are two of his less-than-inspiring choices. "Are You Gonna Go My Way?" would be a fine 1993 TOTHK.

Seinfeld --> Lou Reed, "Dirty Blvd", which I love but is also rather well-trod here.

Berlin Wall falls --> "Downtown Lights" The Blue Nile, which appears to be a bustout

The Cure, Fascination Street

Another semi-regular pick for this year. So far Lou Reed has my BOS.
Let's get right to it.

"Disintegration is the best album ever!!"  But "Fascination St" is also well-worn in this context.
