Yup.  Dave's never played that Firefall tune either.


Which one was it? I came in a tad late, and Ginger only back announced the second half of the songs.

1976 today -- let's see if Ginger can kick Dave's butt in the '70s.


I've never heard this song from Dave.  Is their webpage accurate & this is Tommy Bolin?


Yup.  Dave's never played that Firefall tune either, so' Ginger scores two so far.

er, make that 3 -- I dunno who odes this "Smack Dab in the Middle" song either.


Believe that was Ry Cooder, whom Greg Kihn named his son after.


Damn, that's one that I think it's safe to say DM's never played. I'm bummed I didn't catch that. Gotta get in the habit of tuning in to this take on 10@10, since it's actually on when I arrive at work. (Unlike the NY & Chitown versions.)

Let's get right to it.

Ry Cooder Khin?  Or did he spell it "Kooder"?

Now if Coco Crisp named his son "Ry"...


heh heh.  I doubt his middle name is Cooder, but his first name is Ry.

"It Doesn't Matter", an LP cut I hadn't heard since back then, probably.

Wed 9/14: 1993.  10,000 Maniacs doing "Because the Night" unplugged. Not an auspicious beginning IMHO.

Betcha we get Sting & the Spin Doctors...

ETA: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz  The theme from Frasier has been the highlight so far. Scrambled eggs all OVAH mah face!

2nd highlight: clip from Matinee featuring the fake '50s sci-fi movie Mant!.  Ah, here's "Sleeping Satellite" too.

I don't suppose POC was named for an obscure Joni Mitchell song?


Couldn't answer that, but POC (who presumably has not read this thread yet) told me once that she met Chaka Khan, and upon introducing herself to her, Chaka replied, "That's my favorite Joni Mitchell song."  Odd, as I wouldn't have expected Chaka to have a considered favorite Joni song.  Particularly not that one.

Prince told her "I'll write you a hit song... but you have to listen to ALL of Joni Mitchell's albums first."

KFOG just played OMD's "If You Leave" as the song after the 9:00 Pop Quiz during which people should be calling in, so I stuck around to listen.  Now I come to KBCO & here it is again!

OH
MY
GOD!!

Ginger is playing Clannad!!  This has to top (in my book at least) any obsucrity/rarity that Dave, Bob or Rob has thrown out this year.  I have never heard this on the radio anywhere except the long-since-defunct KEZX in Seattle.

a VHM before that for Steve Miller "Make the World Go Around" with a tasty sax solo by the then-unknown Kenny G.

Do we have a term for songs that aren't guilty pleasures (because I refuse to feel guilty about liking this song) but which one knows one is in the distinct minority in liking?

no, but we should. We could call 'em "Guilty Schroeders" in your honor :wink:  or "Minority Pleasures".

That is a good one; I vaguely remember it getting alternative radio play back then.  I personally am partial to Rob's "obscurities" because he's really plugged in to what was actually played on NYC FM radio back in the day, especially New Wave One Hit Wonders and CBGB's stuff like Mink DeVille. But that's just me.

oh it's that damn "Welcome Home" Aimee Mann thing -- guess Dave's not the only one who remembers it after all.
