21 July 2010: it's... 1982
« on: July 20, 2010, 08:53:50 PM »
a mixed bag on the suggestion front (Loverboy? really? And yes, someone really asked for "Tainted Love", which we got last week on Chartbusters) but I heartily endorse lufaphs' request for Ray Parker's "The Other Woman".
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

after I posted the above, AL's suggestion thread turned into quite a lovefest with some great ideas posted later in the evening. She seemed to like both the Ray Parker and my "Wordy Rappinghood" request, as well as a suggestion for Grandmaster Flash's "The Message" (which I'd've suggested too if I'd thought of it). Looking forward to 10am!

 Moi aussi!  '82 was such a fabulous year in music.  Great FB suggestions everybody (but, after playing the looooong version of Tainted Love last week, I'm good for another 5 years.)

indeed, and AL must really roll her eyes  ::) at all these supposed regular listeners to 10@10 who don't remember what songs were played last week or last month.

It probably just seems that way, but I swear "Don't You Want Me" must have achieved Katrina status by this point. Of course, it's been requested.

amazingly, per the shraytabase, it's nowhere near the katrina that "Keep Feeling Fascination" is -- 5 plays for DYWM vs. 11 for KFF. But this reminds me to put their fab "The Lebanon" on my list for '84 requests. (Dave played it exactly once a few years back)

The silverlight player on the KFrOG page works.  But the old stream address connects immediately, but doesn't play.  I'll see if I'm using the same link as on our page.

Just in time for the Jam!  Yah!

This is my Winamp link that doesn't work today: mms://live.cumulusstreaming.com/KFOG-FM

always a BOS for "Town Called Malice", frequent-flyer tho' it is.  Anyone remember their song "Absolute Beginners" (not to be confused with the Bowie tune) from the same LP?

and another all-too-frequent flier, "Sooner or Later". proxy of shray but I coulda done without this, given the scads of fab requests that were made.
