OMG, sundaygal -- it's "Sunday Girl".  BOS and proxy of SG.

and the Jam are down in the tube station at midnight! BOS2 to one of my fave album titles, All Mod Cons.

Also: Queen raced bicycles, Elvis C took Tiny Steps and Ian Dury & Billy Joel pitted Rhythm Sticks against Stilettoes.

Love it, but love Down In The Tube Station At Midnight more!  Esp. Weller singing the words "take away curry" with such conviction.  But, that's my inner Limey in me.. (Holy redundancy, Batman!  The coffee hasn't kicked in, obvs. )

What's that sleazy joke Phil Lynott tells on Live and Dangerous?  Oh yes, how could I forget:

"Anyone out there with any irish in them? Any of the girls who'd like a little more Irish in them?"

Nyuk...!

BOS Patti Smith's "Ask the Angels", best of a fairly obvious lot so far.

ooo! BOS2 Graham Parker, "Pourin' it All Out"!

OMGWTFLOL!  uber-BOS3 the Nerves' orig version of "Hanging on the Telephone"!!

A big week for loooooong songs: Rob opened this set with EJ's 8-mins-plus "Tonight" from Blue Moves, which must be a ATBB.

Don't tell me the other 10@10 hosts don't listen to AL: Now it's Rob doing a Fab Four twin-spin ("USSR"/"Prudence").  And a Kinks rarity that is surely an ATBB: "Do You Remember Walter?"

I was listening but not posting; loved the NTM Kinks tune.

Then hie thee to your nearest musical emporium and get yourself a copy of The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society with all available haste, and immerse yourself in same for several days. Probably my all-time fave Kinks album. And that's saying a lot.
