More "History of Black Radio" from Judge -- NYC's WRKS (aka "Kiss") from 1981. And we're promised a Jermaine Jackson mega-set at 3pm.

Another fab retro-chart show on CG: Oct 1966. New-to-me hits include Sonny & Cher's "Little Man", Georgie Fame's cover of "Sunny" (!) and Roy Orbison's "Too Soon to Know". Yet to come: Dave Dee Dozy Beaky Mick & Tich!  And OMG here's Bobby Darin getting hip with "If I Were a Carpenter"

Hooray for WLNG, the only other place besides 10@10 that I ever hear the Montanas' "You've Gotta Be Loved".

Bomp-she-bomp and oo-wee-oo: WLNG plays the Chiffons' fab "I Have a Boyfriend", also a Little Steven fave (he has probably played it more than any other song in the 3 years I've been listening to his show) that I barely remembered before he re-impressed it upon me. Now it's one of my very favorite girl-group records.

guess they assume their target demo is a bit deaf from 40 years of listening to RAWK.

KFRC's Casey's Top 40 this week comes from Nov. 19, 1977.  Currently at #26 with "Slip Slidin' Away"; I missed the week's debuts, which included "Baby Come Back," "You Can't Turn Me Off (In the Middle of Turning Me On)," and "Sentimental Lady."

There's something very unsteadying about Judy Collins' "Send in the Clowns" and the Commodores' "Brick House" back to back.

That Judy, she's a brick house all right.

Heard the first hour, left for work just before Barry's "Daybreak", which i'll catch on the replay tonite.  But it was fab to hear the Carpenters covering Klaatu.

these current commercials Casey's doing for Bose headphones are quite jarring in that he sounds SO MUCH OLDER. Compared to his 1977 voice, he sounds like he's about 80.

Quite the contrast between the #2 and #1 singles: #2 is Heatwave gettin' down with "Boogie Nights", while at #1 for the umpteenth week... it's... NOOOOOOOOOO!!! IT CAN'T BE!!!!  Yes, the Whitest. Record. EVAH. Debbie Boone, "You Light Up My Life".

Hey Mike: The rest of Dave's replays don't wow me, so I'm listening to Felix Hernandez @ WBGO.  He's currently playing some Billy Stewart that's new to me.  Don't know the title -- "My Heart's an Open Door," maybe? -- but it's an uptempo Marvin Gaye-ish thing that recycles "Summertime"'s thrilling trills.

Thanks for the reminder -- I've been meaning to check out Felix, and this is a good opportunity. No idea on that tune, but their website has a "just played" feature that seems to be working just fine :wink:

Mike, you asked on another thread whether Barry Scott's Lost 45s was being pre-empted now that WODS in Boston has gone all-Christmas for its oldies.  Answer is: Barry's doing all Christmas songs tonight (and presumably for the next few weeks?).  Some interesting oddities, but I don't know if I can take this much Christmas.

Damn, I wish I'd known -- I have a CD of a "Lost 45s" Xmas show from the early '90s that's a delight.  But how many Xmas oddities can he play for the next 4 Sundays? Moonlion's disco "Drummer Boy" is great... once a year. But not 4 weeks in a row.

BTW is your new quote from Space Jam, one of the worst movies of the '90s?
