19 Feb 2010: B-Sides!
« on: February 17, 2010, 08:49:49 PM »
They're doing another "Vinyl Friday" on the Morning Show, and AL will continue the theme with 10 B-sides -- I seem to recall Dave doing this once some years back.

"Time everlasting... time to play B-sides..."
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

I think my all-time favorite B-sides might be Aretha Franklin's "Oh Me Oh My (I'm a Fool for You Baby)" and the Beatles' SFF.

VHM "Don't Worry Baby."  Did radio stations at the time flinch at the "she makes love to me" line?

some, yes. Remember that there were 2 versions of "Help Me Rhonda", one said "She was gonna be my lover..." and the other said "...my wife..."

BOS Stones!

Richie Unterberger showed some Gene Vincent clips in one of his presentations last year.  I didn't know much about him, like the chronic pain from the accident that gave him a bad limp.  

I think the clip from a Denmark concert showed him really bending over, in pain, but he used the stance to some good "rocker" effect.  Richie mentioned there's footage of him coming back to the stage on cruches.

Back then, "making love" was not exclusively carnal. Hard to hear it now any other way.
