The Peak, 7/30/09: 1988

Cheap Trick's Don't Be Cruel starts us off.  Robin Zander has one great voice, so it's always a treat to hear him. but not a big fan of this cut.

REM's Pop Song 89 sounds so ... 88 to me.  HM.

before this we had Rhythm Corps Common Ground which sounded NTM.

I just tuned in, have never heard of Rhythm Corps.  VHM to Toni Childs.  (She's the same one who did "Don't Walk Away," right?)

man, another cut that sounds NTM, but i will give  Toni Childs's Walk and Talk Like Angels a BOS.  really beautiful, although her voice can have that "got a piece of hamburger stuck in my throat quality" to it, which you can hear sometimes w Madonna and always w Molly Hatchet's vocalist.

I can't tell you.  it's pleasantly surprising when I listen to sets where half the songs/artists seem from out of nowhere.  I've heard of Toni Childs, but I can't give you details in any direction.

after a series of election clips (including Lloyd Bentsen ripping Dan Qualye a new one) we get U2's Angel In Harlem.   Bono is really hitting his stride w this.

WOS Wilburys.  Dylan and Jeff Lynne are oil and water.

That one was a frequent flier with Ginger, and Rob has played it a buncha times too.  Ms Chapman thinks she's gonna go from the shelter to the suburbs in no time flat. Not with that hair, babe.

Susan Sarandon can sound a little like Pee Wee Herman without too much effort.

BOS Bull Durham. Susan Sarandon was robbed at the Oscars that year.

OMG! "Balloon Man"! BOS2 Robyn Hitchcock. The Bangles were idiots for turning this down.
