Quote from: "Gazoo"
The Beatles' "You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)" isn't a good call for this set - it's not really dumb and it's certainly not pleasurable.


I totally agree.  IMHO just a (very rare for the Beatles) bad song.

Anyone ever been to Funky Chinatown?


it's right next to Slammin' Little Italy. Try the Poppin' Potstickers.

WOS2 "I Wanna Be a Cowboy", a record that's nowhere near as clever as it thinks it is.

WOS -- worst of month -- "Puttin on the Ritz". Sorry, Gaz, *this* is a truly horrible record.


De gustibus non disputandem set.

We all know the difference between Turkeys & HFH's as a rule but let's not degenerate into individual debates.  I think Beatles & Taco & Pipkins are all Turkeys.

and "I Wanna Be A Cowboy"

Nevertheless, I was *delighted* every Sunday while it was ascending Casey's survey.  Seemed such a shock that it was catching on.

IN fact, I had the same feeling when "One Night in Bangkok" rode the charts.

BTW, Mark, dunno if you heard Dave talk about you during the 6am hour today: he mentioned that there are people who are "REALLY into 10@10" and keep databases of sets... and that one of those people had sent him the 2002 Turkeys setlist.  Then Peter chimed in with "Oh yeah -- I met one of those guys at our live broadcast in San Jose. He seemed... normal!"

I thought this was a HFH (as well as the Carl Douglas tune).
