12 January 2010: it's...1971!

And the winner is...The 'Oooo!

Baba O'Reilly, better known to lots of people as Teenage Wasteland. And to one girl I knew in college as Out Here In the Field. She was a little slow.

Funny, I just heard KWS (that's for Regguys :) on KFOG before the set started, and the intro to "Every Picture..." sounded an awful lot like "Blue on Black."

Has anyone taken Lil' Shanghai as a rap moniker yet?

We're hittin' the bombastic brit-rock pretty hard so far--three for three. Not that there's anything wrong with that!  BOS Rod the Mod, keepin' his funk along with his story donut.

I think Shanghai Lil knew Albert Flasher. He was a workshop owner!

Workshop owners, movie makers, and Albert Flasher. Would really like to read what inspired the lyrics for this one someday.

OK, now I get it. Albert Flasher owned the Children's Television Workshop!! BIG ups to AL for the clever segue. She's a good 'un, that one!

Meanwhile, I totally recognize this song, but am completely blanked on the artist/title!
