and now Mr Palmer with one of his lesser tunes.


It's not something I've heard here much (at all?) but it's still not doing it for me. But then, 86 is probably one of my two least-fave years on the entire wheel. (And 85 is the other.)

Sorry, but Stevie is leaving Boys Don't Cry in her dust in today's WOS competition.

Somehow, not being able to vote BOS via YM or email today is going to matter much, I think.

Ditto on the unfotunate "I Can't Wait", though the segue after Ronnie saying he was going to set everything right was priceless.


Priceless segue jinx!

On the other hand, how often do we get to hear Tina Turner in two consecutive sets (Ginger's being the other for those who tuned in late), 15 years apart?

Dave almost never plays Tina in the '80s... but he plays this. Go figure.

Wake me up when she's doing the Acid Queen or Proud Mary.

The latter is what we heard on 'BCO not an hour ago. Nice...and rough.

BOS "Sledgehammer", overplayed tho' it may be, it is one of the great singles of that year.

This would actually be my BOS to this point, damning with faint praise, but it's surprisingly not a Katrina.  Dave has only played this twice in the preceeding 14 months & not at all in the 11 months before that.

another case of "KFOG plays it so much in regular rotation that it seems like a Katrina".

Precisely.  To further the point, care to guess how many times Dave has played "Sledgehammer" in the past 26 months?

Bleah.  Awful set.  David and David can't save it.  And this isn't good either.  Was that the Call with Everywhere I Everywhere I Everywhere I Everywhere I Everywhere I Yawn?

yes it was.  I decided by about tune #4 that I have to look at this as a HFH set, and enjoy thinking about how good all the other music out htere is in comparison to this schlock.

Yikes! the Goat wins BOS.  Way to go Fogheads!

A very subdued back-announce as well.  I think Dave knows that this is a sucky year.  At least we had a couple of nice segues.
