The Drive, 4/6/09: 1982
« on: April 06, 2009, 07:59:32 AM »
Bob in the '80s: not a great way to start the week.  And I have a 10:00 meeting so i'll miss whatever Dave has in store.

Winwood to start -- sadly, the delights of "Valerie" have been obscured by that awful dance record that samples the phrase "call on me" over and over (and over and over).

What sounds like a different mix of Crock o'Siegels "I Ran".

I've always found CSN's "Southern Cross" rather a snoozefest. "Looking for that Woman-girl"? Yeesh.

As predicted: Asia again. WOS again.

"and now you find yourself in '82
the disco hot-spots hold no charm for you"

But a dance tune or two would be infinitely better than prog dreck, Bob.

I'm not sure Eric Prydz's "Call on Me" got any airplay in the U.S. outside of its gyms.  :)

I coulda gotten behind that one.  Played a lot of Squier in the dorms that year, and really LOUD, too, of course.

You've never listened to Energy 92.7 in SF (or any other "dance" station -- guess NYC doesn't really have one).
