28 Jan 2016: a "classic" from... 1986
« on: January 28, 2016, 09:23:44 AM »
either '80s or '00s would make sense (and keep us on track for a 5-decade week).

clap on, clap off, the clapper --> Stones "Harlem Shuffle"

Love that Casio commercial. That's one macho keyboard!

Hmmm, looks like today's coffee run will be brought to us by tunes #5 & #6.

My criteria is two consecutive LNs. I coulda gone during songs 1 & 2, but I wasn't paying attention.

dunno if this set was chosen deliberately, but "the effect on Flint was devastating" is timely.

What happened to Iggy? Lost the right channel completely.

Oh, it's fixed now.

I missed the set, but I think whoever has the job of pulling these classics off the shelf grabbed the wrong 1986 set.

Today is the 30th anniversary of the space shuttle Challenger explosion, so unless there was something not reflected in the setlist above I think they blew it.  You would think they would have found one of the presumably many sets that had some reference to the Challenger, Christa McAuliffe, etc.

One of the handful events that I can say exactly where I was and how I responded when I heard the news.
