This KPOO soul thang really IS the sh*t!  Tons of stuff I've never heard before (or rarely). Obscure LP cuts etc.  OMG! the Sylvers!

The deejay calls himself "young, gifted, black -- and BAD!" LOL!

I was fine for 2 hours and then they went to, er, sh*t.  So I switcherd to WLNG in time for the uncensored version ("one HELL of a man") of "Big Bad John". Almost nobody plays that version.

ah, the CG Jukebox: nothin' like a segue from Crazy World of Arthur Brown, "Fire"... to Andy Williams, "Music to Watch Girls By".  LOL!

ETA: and here's the Proclaimers' "Letter From America", as wonderful as "500 Miles" and completely unknown in the US.

WLNG oddity of the day: the 45 single version of Zep's "Whole Lotta Love", which I probably haven't heard since 1970.

WLNG Nugget o' the Day: Petula Clark, "Who Am I?"  Haven't heard that since it was a hit.

Greg sounds pre-recorded today; none of his lengthy asides (which I happen to love) and playing mostly obvious "hits".  But a fine mix nonetheless.

oo! Isleys, "Behind a Painted Smile" from their brief stay at Motown.  All their Motown stuff sounds like it was written for Levi Stubbs.

ETA: "Nothin' Goin' On but the Rent"! Gots to have a J-O-B, baby!

Let's dance, let's shout, shake your body down to the ground.
Can't help but dance. Cow-orkers think I'm a really happy person.

Sweeny, not McCartney.

Playing Clapton's Revolution Now a few minutes ago. Wonder if he has to pay royalties to Mick & Keith for nicking the first two lines of The Last Time.

Doin' the KPOO thang. Roberta & Donny (or Roberta & Peabo, I forget) "You Are My Heaven". "Make me sing la-di-da".

Title: Week of 9/26-9/30
Post by: urth on September 30, 2005, 03:39:07 PM

Sweeny's playing a nice lengthy set of tunes from Bowie's David Live. Changes, Suffagette City, and now the rarely-heard (these days) Diamond Dogs.

Sadly I left work early. But I heard his fine opening set of "rock'n'roll" songs (Stones, Joan Jett, Chuck Berry) and that new Simple Minds track he played -- can't believe KFOG is ignoring that album, given how many of their classics are in regular rotation.  Gotta put Mr Sweeney back on my Friday sked.
