Flashback of the month, "In the News" - was that actually Leonard Nimoy, or just someone doing a really good impression?


Christopher Glenn, who recently retired -- in fact Dave played that clip in a recent '76 set the week of his retirement, iirc.

You mean Christopher Glenn? No, he's a real announcer. I think he's still on--I think KCBS runs his stuff.

Ah, didn't know he'd retired, but if he was on the air in 76 then he was due. I stand corrected.

This is the best set Dave has thrown together in a couple of weeks, imho.  When he's at the top of his game no one can touch him, with his wealth of clips, and (at least in the years within his sweet spot) his range of tunes.  Pretty sure no one else would play more than 5 seconds of the Bay City Rollers.

Nary a clue. Prog-soul?

Ah nutz. Rod after he went Hollywood. Wish Dave'd dig further into his catalog in 1970-73, when he was still recording in Britain (or dare I ask, from his Faces years). We do get cuts from Every Picture Tells a Story, but not much else.

I think that might have been Gina Vanelli, but who knows?

It's not his worst, that comes in 79 with "Do You Think I'm Sexy?"

Actually, this doesn't even come close, it's almost pleasant.  By comparison.

Agreed -- Dave is willing to play cheeze, and that's a GOOD thing. His sets are surely the most balanced in that regard (tho' Bob does occasionally throw in Cher and the Starland Vocal Band).  And Dave's political clips are second to none.
