Day before Earth Day and James Brown is singin' about Nature...

Let's get right to it.

checking out this week's CG retro-chart show: it's Midge Ure talking about the time in 1981 when Ultravox's "Vienna" was at #2 -- they were kept out of the top spot by... "Shaddap You Face"!!!

and heeeeeere's Mr Dolce. Big accordion solo!  Midge Ure did NOT have nice things to say about this record. He'd've preferred to have been kept out of the #1 spot by Benny Hill -- "at least that would've had redeeming artistic value!" LOL!

TANC of the day: KPIG and WLNG both played the Hombres' "Let It All Hang Out" in the same hour. "How's THAT mess yo' baby up, leg?"

Sefra 'n' Sue! Every girl that ah knew!  Jacksons with the ridiculously re-titled "This Place Hotel" (nee "Heartbreak Hotel"). Followed by Champaign's exquisite "How 'Bout Us?" and some Do-Re-Me-Fa-So-La-Ti-D'OH! from Sly.

I wonder if polygamist wedding ceremonies play "I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do"?

LOL! I'm sure Mormons consider ABBA as evil as speedmetal.

Hoo LAWD #2: The Checkmates, Ltd. with "Black Pearl", a splendiferous Phil Spector production from '69. This is rapidy becoming one of my fave streams -- have to see if it holds up over time or if there's too much repetition, but for today I'm in Soul Heaven.
