I know it's unseemly to complain during a '60s set, but "Baby Come Back" is pretty much a Katrina at this point.


Well, I haven't gotten into 2005, but I have wrapped up everything prior that is available on Darryl, and the Equals only showed up once among 9 sets in that sample.


Mike, can I have some of what you're smokin'?  I didn't go all the way back yet, but in the previous 5 sets dating to last May they didn't appear either.  I don't think zero appearances for 8 months & 1 appearance in the previous 4 years constitutes a Katrina.  Bring your stash to POC's party...


When I say "Katrina" I'm going back a long time and I know that song has been a Morey '68 staple over many years... so to ME, it' a Katrina.


I don't want to pick a fight, but I think more properly you might say that it was a Katrina once long ago.  There are at least a half dozen songs that we have heard 3 or more times since the last time we heard this, such as "Scottish Tea", "House That Jack Built", "America", "Do It Again", "Grazin' in the Grass"  & "Martha My Dear".


 I'm of the "once a K, always a K" school. Shall we continue to belabor this?

It's just that I thought we had all agreed that there was such a thing as Katrina redemption, if Dave let a song lie fallow long enough.  But as my dad always said: de gustibus non disputandum est.

Anyway I'm just hoping someone brings their stash to POC's send off!

That's easy for him to say.  Now my dad, on the other hand, always said, "Opinions are like assholes.  Everybody's got one, but nobody wants to look at the other guy's."

Maybe he didn't always say that.

to recap (again):  starting tomorrow, many UK stations that stream have to block the stream to anyone outside the UK, to avoid paying music licensing fees in other countries.  

As it happens, CG has already put the new software in place: when you click on their player, you get a screen asking for your postal code. So just go to this website first:

http://www.applegate.co.uk/indexes/postcode/business-wc.htm

and find a London postal code to lie about, and you're in!

ROTFL!  actually the Latin translates as 'of matters of taste there can be no dispute'.  i.e. - you like what you like, I'll like what I like.

Aretha Franklin - I Say a Little Prayer for You

Jackie Wilson - Chain Gang

Aretha covering a song by another great singer, and then Jackie Wilson, with the Count Basie Orchestra, doing a Sam Cooke song.  A mountain of riches, a plethora of ascended masters if you will!

PS, does anyone have Sam Cooke's "A Change is Gonna Come?"

[TANC:  20 seconds after this post, the Neville's version of this song pops up in my iTunes rotation!]
