kicking out the set w some siocially conscious talk-singing as only Lou Reed can do.

BOS Dirty Boulevard

Fly, fly, fly away.

B52s invite us into their Love Crack Shack for the umpteenth time.

that some highly trafficked well-worn Love they got there.   I'd rather hear Roam or Junebug

The Tone Loc is most impressive -- that, or Young MC, would've brightened any number of Morey '89 sets (Dave's taste in rap has always been horrid: ladies and gents, I give you... Gerardo!)  You've heard the Henley, it was a fairly big hit, follow-up to "End of the Innocence".
