I un-"Feh"d myself when Elvis came on :)

But the La's, sweet as the song is, are uber-LN at this point.

Me neither. Definitely some faux Sly and the Family Stone. Not a bad song. I'll HM it.

ETA: It's Fishbone. I remember thinking I ought to get some of their stuff, but I never did.

yeah, once I heard the song title repeated ("Everyday Sunshine") I realized it was them. Saw the docu about them at the Roxie a while back -- worth renting.

Cool. "Girlfriend" certainly goes in the same power-pop unnecessary bin with "There She Goes". A fine song, but...

I'll give another HM for the Stone Roses' "Waterfall". Nice tune, but not as cool as their more rockin' numbers.

Whoa, now here's something you never woulda heard on KFrOG: BOS for "Little Fluffy Clouds". I think this is The Orb, right?

No idea -- thanks for the ID!  I find stuff like this with endlessly-repeated samples... mildly annoying.

uber-LN: Petty. There's black guy with a guitar who busks in the 24th St BART station, and for some reason he does this song alot.

BAD are also rather LN at this point.  Or maybe I'm just cranky.
