Tuned in pre-SS and heard Steely Dan's "Haitian Divorce" and Billy Idol's corny-as-fuck "Hot in the City" within minutes of each other.  Now that's programming with personality!

I hope they enjoy their media shout-out from across the pond.

No - I was skittish about the self-promotion angle.

Why on earth did Womack just name-drop Kentucky Fried Chicken?!

Woo-hoo!  Thanks!  Hard to think of Hot Fun In The Summertime when it's still below 80 degrees here, though.

BohannonBohannonBohannon.... "Disco Stomp" -- I don't think that one ever got any US airplay.  Is that like the Bristol Stomp?

Yay for my favorite War song, the criminally forgotten "Galaxy."

Seriously?

These lyrics are way worse than "Sometimes I don't speak right..."

Good beat, I give it a 75.

OMG "Walking on Sunshine" -- NOT the Katrina song.  This and the earlier "Mama Used to Say" were early '80s WBLS staples. I'm being transported in time.

Always a pleasure to hear Stevie's "As" -- except when it gets cut off just before it starts REALLY cooking.
