10 February 2010: it's...1978
« on: February 10, 2010, 10:02:18 AM »
Guessing 80s or 90s today.

Wrong again. Sigh.

But at least we get EWF's groovy workout on Got To Get You Into My Life to help me get over it.
Let's get right to it.

Don't sigh, get high!  Nice TOTHK from EW&F.  My friend the Beatles purist could never stand this version, but I dig it.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! WOS "Dreadlock Overplay".

For a song that never made the Top 40, this is awfully popular across the board.

Btw, did y'all catch AL using the phrase "top of the hour kooker" in the backsell for yesterday's set?

BOS for EWF, eh for 10cc--fake reggae, as the long departed Rasztrelnikov often reminded us.

I believe that's "something harder", amigo.  BOS for Nick Lowe's quirking "Breaking Glass".  

And speaking of quirky, another BOS for Nick's mate Elvis.

I was just about to post that the piano on the Nick Lowe track sounded a whole lot like Steve Nieve from the Attractions, and here he is again, fondling his organ on This Year's Girl.

UltraBOS the Steve Nieve twin-spin!

Don't feel bad.  I used to think it was "if you want something, holler".
