CG/KPOO/KCDX etcetcetc for the week of 11/16/09
« on: November 16, 2009, 01:32:37 PM »
Judge on KPOO (my man! says Mike) just played a song that was probably titled Can You Love A Virgin Man?  probably the coolest sounding song about a guy who's still a virgin.  This song sounds so cool, he's bound to get laid now!

ETA: it seems that was Smokey Robinson...

LOL! this first hour has been a cavalcade of rarities.  Hard to imagine Smokey Robinson as a virgin -- he probably lost his at age 10.

lawd! Creative Source's fab cover of Bill Withers' "Who Is He (And What Is He To You)?"  Very Norman Whitfield-meets-Isaac Hayes.

wow  -- even my obscurity-packed Trammps best-of doesn't have this "Trusting Heart" song! NTM -- thanks, Judge!

Bobby W's still looking for a love.

"Tricky Dick! Stop yo' shit!"

Judge ain't no Obama fan: he just dedicated Lamont Dozier's "Fish Ain't Bitin'" to the prez.

"there will never be any peace until God is seated at the conference table" -- a Chi-Lites obscurity.

Sly's "Time For Livin'" gets my why-wasn't-this-a-bigger-hit? award this hour.

and EJ's "Bennie & the Jets" gets the why-the-fuck-was-this-on-the-R&B-chart? citation.

"Baby, You Sure Love to Ball", sez Marvin

"If you think we're gonna play a song with that title, you're CRAZY!" sez Top 40 Radio.

One of my fave '70s obscurities: Little Beaver, "Party Down" -- sounding amazingly like Rick James to my ears, even tho' it was 4 years before Slick Rick would surface. A huge #2 R&B hit that failed to reach the Pop Top 40.

Mr Beaver's real name is Willie Hale; he played the distinctive guitar on Betty Wright's "Clean-Up Woman"!

Judge climaxes with Teddy P/Harold Melvin's "Satisfaction Guaranteed (Or Take Your Love Back)" -- still another R&B smash that failed to register on Pop radio.

JJ has been coming in earlier on Tuesdays and doing early-'70s before his '60s hour: Honey Cone's "Sitting on a Time Bomb", followed by Roberta & Donny's criminally forgotten cover of "You've Got a Friend" have made my day -- and it's only 7:37!
