Heard a promo yesterday. Birthday favor for a longtime Foghead, it said.
Let's get right to it.

another Birthday favor for a longtime Foghead who isn't you or me...

I guess a Bastille Day set featuring Plastic Bertrand was too much to hope for  :wink: .  But anything's better than the snoozefest we just got from KBCO.

Many years ago, I was the lucky recipient of a bday vertical.

Let's hope he starts way back for today's lucky foghead.

ETA: I guess '73 to '82 is good enough.

"Kodachrome" is a fairly obvious starting point given Chuck's story.

indeed: '73 to '82 is golden time.

instant flashback/sledgehammer: "Kodachrome".  ETA: amazing Simon never sold this to Kodak for a commercial.

Ditto. I was just starting HS in 73, so this song is ripe in my memories of that summer as well.

I believe I've got the 45 of this tucked away somewhere.

I know I say this every time, but there was actually a radio station in NYC that censored the word "crap".

Was "Rikki..." still on the charts in July? I recall this LP being an early-in-the-year release.

Am really anxious to hear what we get for '75--there were some great singles that summer. Love Will Keep Us Together or I'm Not In Love, to name just two--either would be ideal.

Will ya settle for "Jive Talkin'"? 2 songs from that LP in one week! Woo Hoo!

Has Dave EVER played Capt & Tenille outside of a HFH set?

My fave shoulda-been-hit from that summer: The Hollies, "4th of July Asbury Park (Sandy)" Gorgeous.

Sounds like a good pole dance tune too.
