Dave sez it's 1980 for the second time today -- I'm betting we hear "Switchin to Glide" one more time. And "Rough Boys" too.  And Dave'll be the one to play "Call Me", I'll wager.

I bet you're right.  But hearing "She Talks in Stereo" is enough of a surprise that I'll grant him one Katrina.

What are the odds of Dolly's "9 to 5"?  How about Sheena's "9 to 5"?  I'd be pleased as punch with either.


Dolly odds are very good (it's a Dave fave). But Sheena's from '81  :cry:

Oops - I seem to recall them being on the radio and charts simultaneously.  Wouldn't be the first time my memory goes revisionist.

Your arm's too short to hotbox with God!

BOS2: "London Calling."  One of the greatest openings ever.  So good that Me First & the Gimme Gimmes used it for their cover of "Elenore."

Just occurred to me that we could get our Paul Hester tribute via Split Enz, as True Colors and I Got You were 1980 hits.
Let's get right to it.

Has Dave ever played "Les Boys"?  Maybe for Pride?  In any case he has certainly played every other song off of Making Movies, which is of course just fine with me.  One of my top Desert Island disc choices.

Another VHM for "London Calling"

...phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust...

I wonder if Marshall Crenshaw took that personally?

Or the Knack?

P.S.  Props to RGMike for trotting out a Tony Orlando non-hit!

I'm unfamiliar with this one; can you elaborate?

Meantime, someone undoubtedly familiar with Les Boys, VHM to Jacko.

Got a phone call & had to turn off the radio, what was it?

--mshray pretending to be Geoff

p.s. another VHM for Michael when he was still black.  

p.p.s. Didja hear his call-in to Jesse Jackson's radio show yesterday?
