23 June 2011: it's... 1979
« on: June 23, 2011, 07:44:43 AM »
Heard a promo that mentioned "the year Happy Meals were first sold". Not sure if this is a new one or if AL begins her long weekend today.

ya just can't argue with Fogheads. AL has a 1979 thread up on FB, not soliciting requests but ... I had this exchange with a guy asking for some Sylvester:

Albert Basso ‎"Can't Stop Dancing" came out in 1979 Some Sylvester to get us in the Pride mood would be nice

Me Methinks we'll hear Sylvester tomorrow :-)

Albert Basso yeah but most likely the same old "you make me feel Mighty Real" which is good, but Sylvester had so many other great songs...

My point of course is that AL doesn't like to play the same artist 2 days in a row; and granted I know tomorrow will be a rerun and Mr. Basso probably doesn't, but still...

I'd never say no to hearing some Sylvester.

You have no idea how much I love this movie.  Almost as much as like the guitar solo in this song!

points for working in the 'Katrina' word angle, but I have to say no way!  awesome song!  and we get the long version..! seems lately everyone has played the shorted version with the truncated guitar solo.

Blondie gets an HM, one way or another. But a lesser-played track woulda been BOS.

This has nothing to do with today’s show, but I just learned that Bob & Doug MacKenzie were in fact Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas. I never would have guessed.

sorry, the song's had more lives than a cat. Too overexposed for me to ever be excited about it again. (see: "Mr Blue Sky")
