Pretty nice set, again very Moreyesque.

Wonder if they've exhausted their store of the DC-created sets yet?

it's so hard to tell anymore, since they're so erratic -- tomorrow we'll get a '90s set with 7 or 8 LNs that will totally suck. Whoever's in charge will no doubt continue to take old setlists and swap out the obscurities for consultant-friendly "classics". 
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

I agree, nice se4t.  Curious why you think it's Moreyesque?  b/c it contains good music? (HEY-O!)   or the specific cuts?  I think Gladys & TOP are Sign O' Morey

Musically yes (the two you mentioned, but also Dr. John, ELO, and David Essex tracks were faves of his).  Also the inclusion of a news-related clip instead of just pop culture and old adverts. And the Jimmy Cliff tune, while not one DM ever played during the shraytabase years, seemed to be the type of rarity he would have thrown in (and probably did, pre-2000).
Let's get right to it.

Very good set, but I'll BOS the "Are You Being Served" clip. A staple on television while growing up.

That was more than decent, actually. More like that one please.

The Law of Averages called with a message from his buddy, Normal Distribution:  they say
that a couple of mediocre sets and one lousy one will be on their way shortly.  (grin)

AL played it once, on February 25, 2011.
