25 Aug 2006: a Classic from 1985
« on: August 25, 2006, 09:58:13 AM »
I'm predicting a theme set...

and as usual I'm wrong. Coulda sworn we we just in '85, but it's been a month.

Ree-Ree on the Free-Free(way) is a nice start, anyway.

The way she slurs that line, it sounds more like "never you mind the exercise."  Advice she apparently followed some years later.

Yes! total mondegreen and I thought that was indeed the line for months after it came out!

LOL!!  Truer words.... The one time I've seen Aretha (about 12 years ago at Jazzfest in NOLa) I was rather appalled at her size. Guess she never met a hushpuppy she didn't like...

The Petty and Dire Straits both take me back to '85. I recall seeing both those bands (and Clapton circa Behind the Sun too) at the old Concord Pavilion. BGP took over the booking that year and suddenly they got some pretty good rock shows there, instead of the cabaret singers and the Concord Jazz fest they'd survived on up to that time.

another BOS, "Appetite". This seems to be one '85 set worth calling a Classic, methinks, tho' I suspect Huey may be waiting in the wings.

Scritti Politti, always a delight, and it's actually been a while for this one iirc.
