you were right when you said "expect the usual suspects," but I like most of these suspects personally.

So WDRV doesn't tend to veer that far off the safe path when picking their sets?  is it the deejay or the station?

BOS2 (and 2nd "big-bosomed lady" of set!) Rod the Bod, "Urine My Heart".

eww..  well, at least urine is sterile.

"You're Celtic, United,
baby, I've decided
your the best team I've ever seen."

I love that line, now that I finally know what it means.

Bob told us back when we first started listening to him that he had parameters he had to work within -- a database of songs they compiled when they started that they re-evaluate from time to time. But there are enuf surprises and rarities in there that Bob's able to give us a treat or two per set (less so in the '80s, it seems).

I'm with you.  Rod was awesome.  Who cares if he went schlocky after he discovered LA?  The guy had a voice.  and I like "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy", too!

and here he is with the "big-bosomed lady" herself, Britt Ekland -- she went from Peter (Sellers) to Rod (Stewart), har-har.
