23 July 2013: it's... 1966
« on: July 23, 2013, 09:19:53 AM »
They've been running a generic "I'm off for a few days but we're bringing you classics" promo.  So, no clue.

BTW the KFOG website says it's 11:34AM Thursday November 15, 2012!

ETA: she's baaaaaaaack!  "it's my older brother's birth year" she sez.  That's gotta be early '70s at least.

Bonus: it's 1966. And Sally gots her a Mustang, y'alls.

And Your Bird Can Sing: George Harrison gives birth to power pop. One of my all-time fave Beatles songs. BOS1.  (Too bad it's only about 1:57 long.)
Let's get right to it.

The Beatles song reminds me that a recent 'Entertainment Weekly' magazine was devoted to 'Top 100 Lists'.

Their #1 album was 'Revolver' (ok with me).
But 'Sgt. Peppers' didn't even make the top 100 -- really made me wonder who came up with that list...  :-)

"Substitute" is an all-time fave., so BOS2. "I look all white but my dad was black" is one of the great lines of all time.

The Beach Boys intro "God Only Knows"

Does this help wash away the 1997, 1990, 1989 and 2000 bitter taste?  ;)
