Quote from: "Gazoo"Quote from: "darryl"YES YES! Benson spun Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings' "Be Easy" at 8:45am to a good response from Morning Show and caller, who asked "Is the whole album this good? Wow."I'm so relieved to know that this kind of stuff still happens.I've been meaning to get over to Amoeba to get a copy of this and maybe Dap Dippin' too. Btw, they're booked into Bimbo's on Dec. 5--methinks I gotta be there. Anyone else?

They are playing a new Iggles tune right now -- "Frail Grasp on the Big Picture". Assuming it's new, anyway.Two observations: 1. when did the Iggles get a social conscience?2. this song rocks.

Just heard a promo for tomorrow's (Thursday) morning show, and they're having Grace Slick live in the studio. They didn't say what hour, but I'd guess 8am-ish. So don't say we didn't tell ya!

So don't say we didn't tell ya!Woo-hoo, I'm off! I will try and listen, though I do have yet another dentist visit. The Airplane's also featured on the Drive' artist spotlight tomorrow -- interesting synergy there.

Grace in rare form on Thurs morning-- and they're playing "Play on Love"!
Quote from: "RGMike"Grace in rare form on Thurs morning-- and they're playing "Play on Love"!Hope Gaz caught this. I tuned in about 7:40 and immediately shot him an e-mail when I realized Grace was on.

I tuned in about 7:40 and immediately shot him an e-mail when I realized Grace was on.I'm afraid I had to miss the whole thing - had a crown replaced. Not feeling so great. Eager to hear any deets - including why she was on in the first place.ETA: Thanks for thinking of me for this! Really appreciated.
