new to me, and delightful: "Shoot You Dead" by Slobberbone. Gotta love that name.

Much has been written about how country can be just as violent as gangsta rap... but somehow death is less threatening when accompanied by fiddles...

Day-um! Merle, "Mama Tried".  Followed by, of all things, "New Orleans is Sinking" by the Tragically Hip.

KPIG does a set of "dog songs" that includes the great "Feed Jake" by Pirates of the Misssissippi, the first hit country song I know of that mentions being gay in a positive light.

"If you get an ear pierced, some will call you gay.
But if you drive a pick-up, they'll say 'No, he must be straight.'
What we are and what we ain't,
What we can and what we cain't,
Does it really matter?"

KPIG is in the midst of an on-air wake for their late PD, swappin' stories about her and playing appropriate tunes:

Paul Thorn,  "Give Them Their Roses While They're Here"
James Mcmurtry "Childish Things"
Jackson Browne "For A Dancer"
 
Quite lovely and moving.

I've been listening for a couple of hours now, and indeed, very moving. They're hauling out some great great music for their fallen friend.

They just played the Byrds' Chestnut Mare, a personal fave and sort of a guilty pleasure, since the lyrics are kind of dumb. Have also heard Springsteen's Growin' Up, Son Volt's Windfall, John Prine, NRBQ, Johnny Cash, and many many more.

Def one of my fave Byrds songs -- a staple of NYC prog-FM in the '70s, it's astounding to me that we've never heard it on 10@10, at least afaik.

I don't find the lyrics dumb; I guess I just always assumed that cowboys really do think of their horse as "just like a wife".

2 of my very fave '80s tunes on CG this hour: TTD's "If You Let Me Stay" and Aretha & George "I Knew You Were Waiting", either of which would brighten a Morey 10@10 in its respective year.

The on-air tribute to Laura Ellen continues, and the jock that's on now is having some trouble keeping his composure. Man, this has to be tough for them.

WLNG Nugget o' the Day: The Osmonds' "Double Lovin'", their sound-alike follow-up to "One Bad Apple". Haven't heard this on the radio in 30 years.

Maybe because it comes off as a plea for a M-M-F threesome?

I always thought it sounded like he was saying that his dick is twice as big as what she's used to.

Double, double lovin
Is what I'm gonna give to you
and you're gonna receive double pleasure everytime I do

Double, double lovin makes you feel so good inside
And when I double up on my lovin
You're gonna be satisfied

Think I'm going to give KPIG a rest today. I can appreciate their need to grieve but it was starting to get depressing by mid-afternoon. At least they were starting to play songs she really liked rather than all the somber stuff (like Will the Circle Be Unbroken).
