Holy Crap, it's 1965 in L.A.!

Yikes, that's pretty enticing. Maybe I'm outta here too.

And I'm back, in time for tune #8.
Let's get right to it.

One thing you can say for KFOG: no commercials (real ones) in the middle of the show.

I love the intro to "I Want You To Want Me" where he over-enunciates the song title for the audience of rabid Japanese teenage girls.

I've probably said this here before, but for years I mondegreened "we can't rewind, we've gone too far" as "the country whined, 'We've gone too far.'"

Don't know much about her, but I just found out that Robert Fripp was a founding member of the Flying Lizards--I did not know that!

Btw, I think that accent is supposed to represent the cultured British upper class.

The singer was Patti Palladin, she did the Chrissie Hynde thing, moving to London & fronting a band full of British guys.

Attn Gaz:  There is no text content on the AMG pages for the group, the album, or the singer.  Maybe you can get another byline?
ETA: there is a small blurb about her first group, called Snatch.

That's a good idea.  If I'm going to continue my involvement with AMG, that's precisely what I need to do: find those holes in their DB and offer to fill them.  Thanks.

I find them all the time, although most are far more obscure than this one.  I'll keep you posted.

VHM this only-from-Dave Cindy Bullins track, "Survivor"

that was fun!  Some good hooks here and there, but also a tad anemic... several moments where you wish the production popped more -- and that her voice was more heftier.

But I'll give it a BOSFRA.

Cindy Bullens is still around; had a great song on RadioParadise in the last few years: "It Was a Long Way Down (But I Liked Falling)".  Sad story that her (teenage, I think) daughter died.  Terrible to think about.

She sure sounds like Patty Smythe.

Smythe woulda pronounced it "Suh-WHY-whuh"  ;)
