3 Sept 2013: it's... 1981
« on: September 03, 2013, 09:34:56 AM »
after a weekend bracketed by theme sets, I'm thinking '90s but hoping for something much older.

ooo! nice TOTHK from Elvis C: "Clubland" in 1981.

Weird tune. I thought it might be Adrian Belew.

 I think Geldof and the producer are trying to do a David Bowie impersonation here.

uber-LN2: "Girls on Film".

At least there's a variety of genres and a couple of non-overplayed songs (this comment is directed at the previous programming director and not any poster on this board). I'm not sure why DC thought it would be a good idea to make the show more generic, format-conforming, and, I guess, slanting towards more recent years. At least the experiment failed.
