Yay, my request! BOS Self Control. I like this one way better than Gloria.

Most definitely! One of those songs that got me into music to begin with.

Brannigan is one of those artists for which the Greatest Hits package is really the best album to get.

another frequently-flown track: Prince & Appolonia. Cap'n Jack's request for "Baby I'm a Star" woulda kicked ass here.

Mr Idol: "Flesh 4 Fantasy" -- not the FF I assumed it was, but given how much Billy I KFOG has been playing recently, I didn't really need to hear him today.

Weird long version of Billy's "Flesh for Fantasy". Not sure I want this song to be extended.

LN? I didn't realize this ever got played outside of 10@10. One of the great second-tier hits, IMHO.

Flesh for Fantasy...my other request! :D And sweeeeeet extended mix!

As far as I can tell, this has only gotten one other spin during the AL era. The only time I’ve heard this song on KFOG outside 10@10 was during the most recent A-Z (when they also played the extended remix.)

OK "Tenderness" is certainly an uber-LN.
