An early Monday for me and lo & behold it's 1977! Rob promises some "surprises" whatever that means.

Ooo! Blondie, "I'm Always Touched"!

it's really not cheating...

Mr Stewart and his "Hot Legs" followed by Marley, "3 Little Birds".

Ramones, "Sheena" -- what would've been a clear BOS in a Morey '77 set is in a tie for VHM here.

If I'm not mistaken, isn't that from the KSAN days?  I loved their tunes.

yes, I was confused -- I was thinking of "Police on my Back" from Sandinista.

But -- DAMN! -- that was one of the best '77 sets ever.  Of course NYC in '77 was the epicenter of US punk/new wave, and clearly the Peak assumes its target audience remembers all those CBGBs stalwarts. Few on the West Coast were aware of Mink deVille at that time.  Kudos to Rob!

Mink DeVille was very big here at the time.

I'm glad to hear it; you'd never know it from Dave's sets, tho' I think Joel Selvin played some Mink recently on his Sun nite Bone show.  And Little Steven is a BIG Willy deVille fan,

Last nite's Selvin show, BTW, was an hour of Zappa.

I don't know if I can claim 1977, but I sure knew who Willy DeVille was by '78. KSAN was all over them, as was KZAP up Sacto way. As I recall, they were the opening act at a Winterland show with Rockpile as support, and Elvis Costello headlining circa This Year's Model.
Let's get right to it.

Today (4/13) so far we've had:

that acoustic-but-I-forget-the-lyrics version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow"
clips from Jurassic Park
something I didn't recognize at all
and now "Man on the Moon."

if you mean that Hawaiian guy, I'm glad I missed it (and I didn't know it was that old -- it certainly didn't get airplay until years later).

and now Kurt is all apologies.  Everyone is gay.
