27 Oct 2006 - 1968

[urth]

Hey Mark, there's something weird going on with the KFOG 10@10 page--it has Wed & Thurs of this week but prior to that it jumps back to October 10 and continues back from there. And I checked, and we didn't post setlists for a couple of days last week as well as this past Monday--can you check back in your DB and fill in the sets for October 18, 19 and 23?

I tuned in a little during class, but couldn' subject them to all of it.  One students thought he heard some gospel in the first song.  I thought the 'hit single' of Morning Dew was Tim Rose out here.

Tim Rose? or Biff Rose? (aka "the thorn in Mrs Rose's side")

Per Whitburn the Lulu version is the only one to ever make the Hot 100.

I don't know about Whitburn, but according to the Wikipedia link:

"Morning Dew", also known as "(Walk Me Out in the) Morning Dew", is an apocalyptic folk-rock song written by Canadian Bonnie Dobson in 1962, that has become a standard.
Fred Neil heard Dobson's song and re-arranged it to suit his own style. Tim Rose heard Neil's version and then recorded his own in 1966, adding himself as co-writer. Through a loophole in US copyright law, Rose was able to claim royalties.

It was definitely the hit out here.  I've never heard Lulu's version.

Geoff, you might find this interview with Bonnie Dobson illuminating and confirming that Wikipedia speaks troof.  I love that "taco.com" is "Roots of the Grateful Dead."

as you can probably guess, I'm aware of Bonnie.  One of the bigger CD's we sold in the early days of the GDF was "The Music Never Stopped: Roots of the Grateful Dead" which had original versions of many songs they are known for.  The Dead are clearly the most famous peddlers of Morning Dew, but there are a gazillion versions.

This set is basically before my time. I was BORN in 1968. I like some of the songs in this set but I'm not really a fan of this music's era like most of you. I like an era that RGMike seems to hate, the early 80's (but this the era I grew up and went to high school).

actually I don't hate the early '80s at all; I just hate Dave's often-predictable choices from that decade. Punk & New Wave were wonderful to me at the time. It was the last "new" music movement I got really excited about. I'm far more negative about late-'80s/early '90s.
