What was the CT song? I tuned in during the ELOs tune, bemoaning how Bruce brings them down.

BOS Kinks, (Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman.
Let's get right to it.

The Dream Police (police! police!)

VHM Mr Palmer, with the sheepherder's lament: "Bad Case of Lovin' Ewes".

Yikes, that clip from Trapper John MD sounded *awful*. Don't think I ever saw an ep of that show, and now I see why.

I never knew *anybody* who actually watched it, yet it lasted 3 or 4 seasons.

BOS3 "Apple Scruffs" "Good Girls Don't".

Yeah, it really did sound bad.  And I imagine that's the first scene of it ever. 

BOS for the Knack being naughty again.

It's a jangle pop twin spin!  But I don't know who does "Girl of My Dreams" :(

BOS here for Bram Tchaikovsky, Girl of My Dreams. Oh, for a pub-rock revival!

ETA: Anyone else think the stream sounds worse than usual today? Very midrangy, compressed, and kinda warbly.

BOS4 Bram T. -- One that AL left out of her all-New Wave '79 set 2 weeks ago, opting instead for its 12-string twin, "Starry Eyes". Those 2 records will be forever linked in my mind, along with "Too Late" by the Shoes.

Yikes, bad breakfast cheeze from Toto.

I'm at home listening over-the-air. But which link do you use for the stream? the WM link on this board, or the one on the KFOG home page?

Found the problem. Had a browser crash earlier in the set and when it relaunched somehow I ended up with two players open and playing simultaneously, just a few milliseconds out of sync. Closed one, problem solved.

Oh, and BOS Lost in the Supermarket. I always picture Mick and Joe wandering aimlessly up and down the aisles of a Marks and Sparks, pushing a cart and looking for the ciggies.
