Does everyone know who wrote "Tighter, Tighter"?


No, but now I'm going to have to go look it up!

Yet another BOS--Los Beatles (YAY!), Across the Universe (but not the Wildlife version, alas.)

I do believe we've discussed it here more than once. This song made him a lot of mony, mony.

Yes, the Brady Bunch on LSD would indeed produce a Ball of Confusion.  BOS from me.

We're firmly within 10-way tie territory--BOSwhatever to Ball of Confusion.

Woohoo for the Loooooong Version.  I dig Rare Earth (heh).


I arrived somewhere in the first tenth of this.  But I'm gonna have the CBS stream running simultaneously.  Should be quite the mash.


No I'm not -- the stream is still JACK FM.  Huh?


they haven't changed the graphics yet -- unlessyou're listening to the HD-2 stream, which really IS "Jack". But the stream that was "Jack" all along is now CBS-FM.


I got thrown b/c I heard "Glory Days" on the stream.  Is 1985 now "oldies" territory?  Yikes.

Ever notice the "Mathilda" part of the song there in the trumpet break?

I'd agree except for the Rare Earth -- which proved that Rare was an apt name for them, as that song was not Well Done.

More Neil than usual across the board this week, which is a nice thing.  Although I can only handle small doses of mpoier ones like "Don't Let It Bring You Down."

This is not "Oldies" -- it's "classic Hits of the '60s '70s & '80s".  And it's working just fine, IMHO. Capital Gold has been doing the same concept for years.  You're not gonna hear hair metal, but you will hear NY-oriented artists like Mr Springsteen and Mr Joel, and upbeat pop records ("Let's Hear it For the Boy" comes to mind).

Hey again, did ya notice that the KFrOG stream is slightly higher quality?  They're up to 52kB now.  Still sounds like everybody is in a cave, but the treble comes through a little better.  Bass a little cleaner too.

Or not. I'd have thought that would have made a fine finish to the set...
