25 Aug 2010: it's... 1969!
« on: August 24, 2010, 08:33:22 PM »
Hump Day is '60s Day again. Something tells me Sly's "Hot Fun" will make a rather obvious weather-related appearance.

ETA: I opted for Neil D singing about a hot August nite; here's hoping.

Whoa, NTM.  I don't think I've heard any song by Nazz except for "Open My Eyes".  I didn't know there was a pre-solo-Todd version of this.  Niiiiice!

I really prefer Todd's solo take on Hello, It's Me.  This drags too much.

indeed, I think I prefer it to the poppier solo version. But The Isley Bros take remains my fave.

Sounds like it was recorded with the Beach Boys in mind. Unquestionable BOS--can't wait to hear what she has to top this.

speaking of languid, "white" orig versions of songs later covered soulfully (Jr Walker's version of "These Eyes" is another fave).

VHM Python, "funniest joke" skit, but AL really shoulda played "Laughing" instead of "These Eyes". But BOS2 "I Started A Joke".

BOS3 and proxy of Gaz, Turtles, "You Showed me", one of my requests -- didn't realize how well it would fit AL's "mellow" vibe today.

I'll have to request the Lightning Seeds' version of this the next time 1997 rolls around.
