sadly, you were correct.  I think it was Jsn Mrz that followed.

LN: Badfinger.

Do you hear this on the other stations?  I don't think I hear it on KFOG, the few times I listen.  When this was new, it was one of the most wonderful sounding things coming out of the radio, with George's guitar doing that classic swoop!

Yeah it's a wonderful record, but it's an across-the-board 10@10/"Classic Hits" staple.

I thought we had a name for songs that were only heard on 10@10.  Was that a Narada?

Hee hee. A Narada is a song that gets 10@10 love but that you don't ever remember hearing on the radio back when it was new. Named for Narada Michael Walden's "I Should've Loved Ya", a Morey fave in 1980 sets. I should request that, actually -- AL hasn't played it afaik.

I was thinking of songs like "Worlds Away," which were played on the radio, but now only get played in a 10@10 context.  BTW, has AL played "Worlds Away?"

AL has played "Worlds Away" several times; just about a month ago, in fact.  And that one is a Narada for me, since it got zero airplay in NYC.

VHM Traffic, "Low Spark". This was quite a fine Moreyesque set, even without any bustouts.

I'm taking it this is the condensed version.

Didn't know there was one. BOS from me.

Seems to be full-length as near as I can tell.

I swear I've heard a version which for all intents and purposes eliminated the five minute instrumental bridge.

Listened to the replay last night. Definitely BOS of a strong bunch, and the perfect song for a trip on a humid night down I-280 20 years ago.

I'm pretty sure I've heard an edited version too, although AMG doesn't list one. Wouldn't be surprised if there was a radio-only edit running around, much like the various length edits of Thick As A Brick.

Ah, that would explain our differing ideas of what Narada meant, since it was very significantly played on KFOG back when it was new.
