Happy b'day Urth, and nice shout-out from AL.

You've been going through some rough times, and I know it's a little thing, but I hope it put a smile on your face. 8)

It did indeed, and thanks to y'all for such a resounding batch of birthday wishes! I am determined to make this a good birthday, recent events notwithstanding! And Annalisa's birthday greeting was a nice touch as well. I wasn't sure if the B-urth-day club was still a going concern when I e-mailed her yesterday, but she said sure, she'd give me an on-air mention. So I was quite pleased that she remembered.

ETA: Btw, I had nothing to do with the choice of sets--she'd already picked the VT for today's selection, but I am pretty happy with her choice, particularly since I got '82 on more than one occasion (as Mike noted). I do remember getting a '69 set one year, but that was a while back.

Going to have to vote a 10-way tie I think--these have been some pretty great selections all the way around.

OMG! Here's a bustout for the ages--Herman's Hermits! I saw Peter Noone aka Herman in about 1980 with a new wave band called the Tremblers--he looked almost the same as in 67, but with a better haircut. And yeah, they did this. Don't remember if they threw in Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter.

Gaz sez: "WOS to one of the stupidest songs ever written"

I sez: respect Ms Greenwich!

AL does! A shoutout to Ellie G., as it should be.

WOS to Sam Cooke (I don't like his voice, and I don't like this song) but yay for Jimbo!

wow, the only person in human history who doesn't like Sam Cooke's voice -- and WE got him!  ;)

BOS the Big "O"!
yeah, I was gasping as I read Gaz' comments! Sam is the man!
