KHUM also does Motown Mondays. Staples Singers "I'll Take You There"
mercy!
-
one of the first 45's I bought. Just the word Playboy was racy back then!
-
Thanks for the tip... The Peak was doing '92 or '93 so I switched.
-
I'm having a Mystic Crystal Revelation, as the moon moves into the Seventh House. Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis too!
-
OMG, Miss Ross (she da Boss) with the loooooooong version of "Ain't No Mountain." Spectactularly overwrought, and just plain spectacular.
-
Ain't No Mountain High Enough
-
oooh! Ike & Tina's cover of "Honky Tonk Woman". DAY-um!
"I laid a VIP in New York City..."
-
Damn! Smokey with the swingin-est cover of "Abraham Martin & John" imaginable.

I was in the middle of something, and couldn't just plant myself here and soak it in! What little I heard sounded great!
-
ending with Teddy "Close the Door"
This has been an excellent experience, not the normal KFRC Motown-Monday clichés.
ETA: and it continues with Drifters, as I tune in KFOG...
-
Marilyn just ended her show with the original version of Rubber Biscuit, which I know from the Blues Brothers cover from the late 70s. Aykroyd and Belushi didn't really take too many liberties--the original sounded almost the same as the cover. One question: what's a "coolwater sandwich and a Sunday-go-to-meetin' bun"?
-
Judge is gettin' down, with obscure LaBelle and now a song called "Disco Baby" (?)
-
Miriam Makeba deep track! a B-side from her Pata Pata record, "West Wind"
-
some soul version, female vocalist, of "This Land is Your Land" with the socialist lyrics!

damn! I'm VIP-ing but I may have to switch over.
Mostly, I just wanted to make post 14,500...

Announcer said it was Sharon Jones

ha-ha, ha-ha: Sly & the Family, "Runnin Away". Lookatchoo foolin' you!

Ooh, Sharon and the Dap-Kings are FIERCE. I'd forgotten about her and them!

Seriously dudes! It may sound like a joke, but she cooked on this song!

on CG: "Parklife", Blur. "it gives me a sense of enourmous well-being"

My response was no joke at all; I really dug their stuff, including TLIYL!
-
CG plays Queen, "Love of My Life". Love those harps!
-
CG nugget: Pickettywitch, "Same Old Feeling".
-
Bam-a-lam! "Black Betty" makes her 2nd appearance of the week -- the short version this time. This was actually a UK hit twice: first in '77, when it hit #7, and again in a "remix" in 1990 when it got to #13. (In America it only reached #18.)
-
here's a rarity: Crispian St Peters (of "I'm the Pied Piper" fame) doing the UK hit version of "You Were on My Mind", an American hit for the We Five.
New to me, and a little less "poppy" than the version we're used to.

I've long been curious to hear that. Forget where I heard about it, though. Thanks for the relay.

just switched over to VIP in time for -- Babs, "Stoney End"!! OMFG! Still a fabulous pop single (it would've made today's wonderful '71 set even moreso) and a revelation at the time, especially to 15-year-olds like me who thought Streisand was an old lady who appealed to even older ladies.
ETA: followed by, OMFG2, Lulu, "Leave a Little Love".
-
another station to try:
www.kcdx.com
they're in Phoenix, they're a classic rocker, more or less, with a very wide-ranging playlist.

I just switched over to these guys and the first song is Trower, "Bridge of Sighs".... followed by Poco, "Good Feelin' to Know". That's impressive.
-
wow, the Moodies, "Watching & Waiting" -- haven't heard this in decades.
-
ooh! "Good Girls Don't"!
"... and it HURTS!"
-
"Aftermath", a late-'80s Seger tune I don't think I've ever heard on the radio.
-
highlight of the afternoon (so far): "Plastic Fantastic Lover".
-
good lord -- Foghat, "Drivin' Wheel".
-
a new one on me: Caravan, "In The Land Of Grey And Pink". Anybody know this one?
and followed by another obscurity: Lee Michaels, "Murder In My Heart (For The Judge)". This is turning out to be quite a mind-blowing afternoon!
-
after nearly three KILLER hours of rockin' nuggets, the station has suddenly turned into a Dave Morey '80s VT: The Call, Roxy Music, Alan Parsons, Huey Lewis, and Springsteen's "I'm on Fire".
-
Little River Band, "The Other Guy" -- haven't heard this since it was a hit. Some country guy should cover this, pronto.
and speaking of, The Long Ryders, (?) "Prairie Fire" -- new to me and very Mellencampesque.
-
WTF? Steve Hackett, "Narnia"? (yes, THAT Narnia).
-
"it's a pleasure
when you treasure
all that's new & true & gay"
Do tell, Loofah! Mr Vandross with Change and the "Glow of Love" on CGSS.
-
Miss Ross (she da Boss) with "My Old Piano". An odd lyric, this, comparing her lover to a piano -- he has "an 88-key smile" (!) and is, of course, "grand".

If she likes his piano, wait till she sees his organ!

My god, that line was just sitting there, screaming out to be taken, for nearly six hours. Thanks Gaz, for putting it out of its misery. Well done.

Q: What's better than roses on your piano?
A: Tulips on your organ!

Dylan doing "Man of Constant Sorrow." I don't know if I've ever heard this before. Not sure what album it's on.

You must have already discovered this earlier, I already had the station in my iTunes list. I just caught the tail end of a Danny Kirwan Fleetwood Mac song, but I didn't hear enough to make the final ID!

Well, I shoulda known...I wasn't really too aware of this song until the 1976 Kaleidoscope album:

The AMG reviewer is relatively clueless, but at least they confirm this record's existence!

JJ on KPOO never fails to amaze me with something I've never heard before and tonite it's "You Can't Hide Love", an R&B mid-charter in 1973 for Creative Source. Three years later, as "Can't Hide Love" (without the "You"), it would be a hit for Earth Wind & Fire -- I never knew EWF's was a cover!
And now here's Main Ingredient, 2 years before "Everybody Plays the Fool", covering Curtis Mayfield's "I'm So Proud".
Followed by Gene Chandler's groovy "Groovy Situation". Canyadigit canyadigit canyadigit canyadigit?
-
Little Steven's show has just begun: it's his annual salute to "Louie, Louie" -- the birth of Garage Rock AND Frat Rock ("garage rock's inbred, less intelligent brother" sez Steven) in one fell swoop!
First movie clip of the evening (was there any doubt?):
"Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, son."
