Judge on KPOO (my man! says Mike) just played a song that was probably titled Can You Love A Virgin Man? probably the coolest sounding song about a guy who's still a virgin. This song sounds so cool, he's bound to get laid now!
ETA: it seems that was Smokey Robinson...

LOL! this first hour has been a cavalcade of rarities. Hard to imagine Smokey Robinson as a virgin -- he probably lost his at age 10.

lawd! Creative Source's fab cover of Bill Withers' "Who Is He (And What Is He To You)?" Very Norman Whitfield-meets-Isaac Hayes.
"dadgummit!"
-
hey, it's the same "Get Christie Love" clip we heard on KFOG a couple weeks back!

hey, Judge (mah man) thinks Christie Love has chutzpah! Would ah JIVE you?
-
Get Christie JINX!!
-
wow -- even my obscurity-packed Trammps best-of doesn't have this "Trusting Heart" song! NTM -- thanks, Judge!
Bobby W's still looking for a love.
-
"Tricky Dick! Stop yo' shit!"
Judge ain't no Obama fan: he just dedicated Lamont Dozier's "Fish Ain't Bitin'" to the prez.
-
"there will never be any peace until God is seated at the conference table" -- a Chi-Lites obscurity.
-
JB tells us how to "get down with a broad"!
-
Sly's "Time For Livin'" gets my why-wasn't-this-a-bigger-hit? award this hour.
and EJ's "Bennie & the Jets" gets the why-the-fuck-was-this-on-the-R&B-chart? citation.

"Baby, You Sure Love to Ball", sez Marvin
"If you think we're gonna play a song with that title, you're CRAZY!" sez Top 40 Radio.
-
One of my fave '70s obscurities: Little Beaver, "Party Down" -- sounding amazingly like Rick James to my ears, even tho' it was 4 years before Slick Rick would surface. A huge #2 R&B hit that failed to reach the Pop Top 40.
Mr Beaver's real name is Willie Hale; he played the distinctive guitar on Betty Wright's "Clean-Up Woman"!
-
Judge climaxes with Teddy P/Harold Melvin's "Satisfaction Guaranteed (Or Take Your Love Back)" -- still another R&B smash that failed to register on Pop radio.
-
JJ has been coming in earlier on Tuesdays and doing early-'70s before his '60s hour: Honey Cone's "Sitting on a Time Bomb", followed by Roberta & Donny's criminally forgotten cover of "You've Got a Friend" have made my day -- and it's only 7:37!
-
Smokey don't blame you at all: it's his own damn fault he's a virgin man!
-
JJ mispronounces Ann Peebles as "peoples". And like a window, I ain't got nuthin' to say.
-
Tempts want a love they can see. But it's more fun with the lights out...
-
Day-um! a blue-eyed soul twin-spin on 'LNG: Dusty's "Brand New Me" followed by Joe South's "Walk a Mile in My Shoes". Still an extraordinary lyric on the latter.
-
creepy Gary Puckett says, "Don't Give In to Him" -- I want you to give in to me instead!
-
Since The Bone screws it up nearly every week, I've opted to listen to Little Steven's show on his website instead. This week it's his annual Scorsese's birthday tribute, with lots of great songs from all of Marty's movies.
-
OMGWTF-of-the-Week: Offshore dredges up a vocal version of "Cast Your Fate To The Wind" by someone named Shelby Flint.
-
Offshore ends my day with Peter Sarstedt's *other* hit, "Frozen Orange Juice" -- far more traditionally poppy than "Where Do You Go to...?", it was top ten in the UK, nothing over here. Given that it was 1969, it would've been perfect for Oliver to cover in the wake of "Starshine" and "Jean".
