KFOG, But Not 10@10

[Alicat]

Also, they have today's show posted on the Morning Show page in one-hour chunks, as well as today's 10@10.

They're Flash audio files, so not sure if they're downloadable or not (right-clicking just brings up an "about Adobe Flash" page). If anyone figures a way to snag the files, please share the info.

They're actually just MP3s hiding behind a Flash player.  The links are in the source of the Morning Show page.  I copied those and put them on this page for easy saving:

I've got the full recordings from Weds, Thurs, Fri sitting on this hard drive here (as well as yesterday's 10@10 marathon).  They're about 288MB each, so I'll probably chunk 'em up into 1-hour segments and post them up soon.

Cool, good work. Let us know if you upload the 10@10 sets. Urth recorded and is burning to CD me thinks.

Thanks for the link, Darryl!  BTW, I dunno if I'm crazy (quite possible) but it seems like the overplayed songs on KFOG are even more overplayed than they used to be. Add JCM's "Check it out" to the list; I seem to hear the Cranberries every freakin' morning and don't even GET me started on "Sweet Home Alabummer"...

And I thought it was just a function of Dave's last day, but the player on the KFOG site still isn't working. The "other" player works, however:

Darryl, you're much cleverer than I, or have younger eyes.  I was looking at the source, but couldn't locate the sound files.  Thanks for doing this.

The magic phrase to search for:  mp3

:-}

Lemme throw all of these audio files onto a flash drive so I can get some "work" done at work.  ;-}

I miss work.......

I'm listening to Hour 2 of Dave's last show (the only hour I missed, I was in transit at that point). Did Craig Easley (former "Morning Show Beat Poet") really say he was Dave's age? Wow, I thought he was in his 30s!
 
Love the guy who requested (and got) "See Emily Play".

[urth]

A little juvenile bathroom humor to start your morning:

The "just played" feature on the KFOG door a few minutes ago listed "Pete Townshend--Let My Love Open the Doo."

[urth]

Let it be recorded that at 9:25 am this 9th day of January, 2009, KFOG's morning show played the Ramones Do You Remember Rock & Roll Radio, a first in regular (non-10@10) airplay in my memory.

Score one point for Webster.

[Gazoo]

I'm not revoking my assessment of the Ramones as a novelty act, but it was really fun to hear "Rock & Roll Radio" shortly after arriving at work today.  Suddenly feeling energized.

xpost: haha!  Was just coming on to post that!

Only Daryl knows for sure, But I'm sure it comes up in non-10@10 rotation occasionally, tho' not exactly frequently.

True--I could see Big Rick, who I've rarely listened to even when I was living there, playing it.

For the "Stupid Fogheads" files: Today's Pop Quiz was IDing the artists of various Motown songs, keyed to the label's celebrating its 50th anniversary this week.  So the first caller is asked to name the Motown artist of "Ain't Too Proud to Beg": "The Stones," he says.

I was watching VH-1 Soul yesterday and they were running ads for yet another compilation called "That's What I call Motown", kaeyed to that 50th Anniv; it occurred to me that the famous "Motown 25" TV special (MJ moonwalks, etc) in 1983 was 7 months early.

Anyone hear the discussion in the 6:00 hour of the Doobies' "Jesus is Just Alright"?  Greg asked about the song; he thought it odd that a "biker band" like the Doobs would record an ode to JC. Peter said something about Jesus being "cool" in the early '70s, but none of the 4 people in the studio seemed to have a clue that it was a cover of a Byrds song from 1969 -- it took a listener to call in and tell them.

Dave woulda known...

Peter should have known that--he's of the right generation, but he's such a goof I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Yeah, they lost a lot more than just a morning DJ when Dave left the station.

Oh, and Renee sounds terrible this morning--voice all froggy and such.

ETA: Webster's now playing Shawn Mullins' Rockabye, a song that was in heavy rotation on KFOG in October of '98 when I moved to SF. It's quite the sledgehammer for me all of a sudden, and now 10+ years later it makes me realize how much has happened in that time.
