The Drive, 3/27/08: 1980
« on: March 27, 2008, 08:01:08 AM »
ooo! a new montage from Bob. (like, TOTALLY!)

But starting a 1980 set with a live version of "Lola" by the Kinks is a bit of a cheat, IMHO.

His montages are consistently inspired.

Surprisingly, this is the first time anyone's gone to 1980 since March 4.

2nd "meh" in a row: Mr Browne, "That Daryl Hannah Could Sing" (oh wait, I guess he didn't know her yet in '80).

Mick's so hot for her, but she's so cold -- "Cold Ethyl", I think her name is.

seriously? it has shown up fairly regularly from both Bob and Dave, iirc. "Even it Up", another of their great radio-friendly singles. BOS from me.

Missed the set, and it's not like it's got any real bustouts (except maybe the Genesis?), but this sure is a damn good snapshot of freshman year in the dorms for me.  Seriously 8 or 9 of these tunes are zeitgeist/flashback/sledgehammers pour moi.  May have to contrive to listen at home tonight.

The Kinks - Lola (live)   13.3%
Jackson Browne - That Girl Could Sing   8.6%
The Rolling Stones - She's So Cold   6.7%
Heart - Even it Up   7.6%
R.E.O. Speedwagon - Take it on the Run   9.5%
Genesis - Behind the Lines   6.7%
Steely Dan - Time Out of Mind   9.5%
AC/DC - Back in Black   19.0%
The Police - De Do Do Do De Da Da Da   1.9%
John Mellencamp - Ain't Even Done with the Night   17.1%
