Yay! Ramones cover of "Needles and Pinza"  BOS2.  This seemed rather Dave Morey-on-autopilot to my ears, the Siouxie bustout notwithstanding.

so, when we start the week with '70s, is there nowhere to go but down? We could go '90s/'80s/'00s followed by something patriotic on Friday for the holiday.  (This all assumes that '60s sets have truly been banished, which is the scuttlebutt in Snipeland).

6/29/15 Some of the greats in..... 1978
1. Grateful Dead - Fire on the Mountain
2. Peaches & Herb - Shake Your Groove thing
(TV: Cone Heads SNL)
3. The Rolling Stones - Respectable
(News: Keith Richards Suspended Sentence)
4. Bob Seger - Hollywood Nights

[editing note:  besides removing the extra carriage return between each line, #8 had "title - artist" instead of "artist - title" the rest were reported in.  With all the copy editors in this group, I don't know what's proper, I just thought it should be ordered.]

Today's bust-outs:

1. Grateful Dead - Fire on the Mountain
2. Peaches & Herb - Shake Your Groove thing
5. Siouxsie & The Banshees - Hong Kong Garden

It's long been "artist - title,"  although for a while under the other host it was reversed, to my
consternation.  As it is, in recent years the header lines have deviated from the Morey Canonical
Format, which is usually something like

00/00/00 - Sunday!  Some text blah blah blah 1900!
"Your favorite songs, played beautifully"
