OMG, a Chris Whitley song that isn't "Big Sky Country." Surprise of the year.
Edit: Too bad this song is annoying.

Hahaha!  Did KFOG play this in 1991? It's NTM.

ETA: a request from the PD, apparently. As snoozy as Mr Pugh's personality.

Renee: Queensr˙che gets BOS by one vote over Divinyls/School Of Fish/Nirvana/Iggy Pop (VHMs)

[dischead]

Was NOT expecting this to start! 

Edit: Is this a bustout?  It doesn't show up in search.

AL played it on June 21, 2010 as part of a summer set.

ETA:  I need to read ahead before I post...

RR acknowledged DW? Do tell!

On FB, DW wrote "QUEENSRYCHE gets the Rocker Double Devil Horns award for the day: \m/ \m/."  During the recap, RR said something like "Queensryche, with the Rocker Double Devil Horns!"

Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble "Little Wing"

BOS.  This is a lovely cover, and as a bonus, he doesn't sing.  I'm a little surprised at the lack
of regard for contemporary blues guitarists on this board.  I guess you purists only listen to
Robert Johnson, Albert King, etc.

If SRV is the quinessential contemporary blues artist, then the genre didn't develop in a way I liked.

It's not about lack of talent -- he was very gifted. It's about overexposure, for me. He did not get that much airplay when he was alive, at least in NYC, and now he's in every set in which he's "legal" to appear, not to mention in frequent rotation on KFOG generally. "Little Wing" is actually less LN than the usual 3 or 4 SRV songs KFOG plays.
