Holy crap! Air Supply are "All Out of Love" on CG. 'Til it hurts, indeed.

but it's followed by Dusty, "Middle of Nowhere" and -- huzzah! -- Laura Branigan's "Gloria", an '82 hit that beats anything in Dvae's set today.

Dammit -- KPOO's player won't open

I feel rather stupid, but ... other people have said that here, and I have no idea how to do that -- my player has no place to paste anything. What am I missing?
ETA -- I figured it out. Levi Stubbs is eating humble pie -- and so am I!
-
This Roberta Flack is new to me, but nice.
BTW I have heard fancy Miss Nancy's "Ode to Billy Joe" -- I've always liked her and need to pick up a good best-of.
-
another new-to-me track: KC/Sunshine Band "Ain't Nothin' Wrong With Lovin You" (?).
-
"jam, y'all! Funk it up!"

She's built! She's stacked! She's a Bad mamma jamma! Judge closes his show with Carl Carlton's anatomy lesson.

KPOO's player is working again -- JJ just played Gene Chandler's answer to Mary Wells, "You Threw a Lucky Punch".

Never heard of that one! Will have to seek it out.

Today on NYC's CBS-FM, Bob Shannon is, once an hour, playing the vinyl version of a classic oldie. Earlier he played back-to-back the vinyl and CD versions of EJ's "Island Girl", letting people vote as to which sounds better. Vinyl won handily.

I love this shtick. Sunday morning it was multiple alternate takes of Otis's "Dock of the Bay."

Hey Gaz -- have you ever heard Norma Tenega's "Walking My cat Named Dog"? I'd always heard OF it, but had never heard it until just now on WLNG. It's very M's&P's/Spanky-like.
-
OMFG! Robbie Dupree's *other* hit, "Hot Rod Hearts".
-
OMFG2! the orig version of "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" by Madeline Bell.
-
OMFG3! Sheena Easton, "Strut". All this fascination with leather and lace!
-
Don't know if anyone else is listnening online right now, but the Drive is about to do an hour of Hendrix on the 37th anniversary of his passing.
1970 replay was excellent, too.
-
Sweeney's been doing a fine job in his new CG drivetime gig, and here's one I haven't heard in eons: Slade, "Take Me Bak 'Ome". (Love their creatively spelled titles -- rappers think they're being original wit dat?)
-
A fine how-do-you-do to start my afternoon of WLNG: Mouth & MacNeil!
-
Skeeter Davis just can't stay mad at you -- hey, it's not the end of the world!
-
it's the 3rd o' June on the 19th of Sept. Watchoo throwin' off that damn bridge, boy?
-
'LNG has Moonlight on the brain: earlier it was "Moonlight Feels Right", and now we're "Dancin'..." with King Harvest.
-
"And now to sing this lovely ballad... here is ... Mama Cass..."
-
OMFG-of -the-Week: Miriam Makeba, "Pata Pata".

Funkin' for Johannesburg!

holy crap, CG plays Travolta's "Greased Lightning" from Grease -- apparently a much bigger hit in the UK than it was here.
-
WMIR digs up "Gimme Back My Bullets" -- nice to hear a LS song that isn't way overplayed -- Dave plays Skynyrd regularly but I don't think he's ever featured this one.
-
WMIR plays Steppenwolf's great forgotten epic "Monster/Suicide/America" I posted these lyrics a year or 2 ago but damn they're worth reading again...
(Monster)
Once the religious, the hunted and weary
Chasing the promise of freedom and hope
Came to this country to build a new vision
Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope
Like good Christians, some would burn the witches
Later some got slaves to gather riches
But still from near and far to seek America
They came by thousands to court the wild
And she just patiently smiled and bore a child
To be their spirit and guiding light
And once the ties with the crown had been broken
Westward in saddle and wagon it went
And 'til the railroad linked ocean to ocean
Many the lives which had come to an end
While we bullied, stole and bought our a homeland
We began the slaughter of the red man
But still from near and far to seek America
They came by thousands to court the wild
And she just patiently smiled and bore a child
To be their spirit and guiding light
The blue and grey they stomped it
They kicked it just like a dog
And when the war over
They stuffed it just like a hog
And though the past has it's share of injustice
Kind was the spirit in many a way
But it's protectors and friends have been sleeping
Now it's a monster and will not obey
(Suicide)
The spirit was freedom and justice
And it's keepers seem generous and kind
It's leaders were supposed to serve the country
But now they won't pay it no mind
'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy
And now their vote is a meaningless joke
They babble about law and order
But it's all just an echo of what they've been told
Yeah, there's a monster on the loose
It's got our heads into a noose
And it just sits there watchin'
Our cities have turned into jungles
And corruption is stranglin' the land
The police force is watching the people
And the people just can't understand
We don't know how to mind our own business
'Cause the whole worlds got to be just like us
Now we are fighting a war over there
No matter who's the winner
We can't pay the cost
'Cause there's a monster on the loose
It's got our heads into a noose
And it just sits there watching
(America)
America where are you now?
Don't you care about your sons and daughters?
Don't you know we need you now
We can't fight alone against the monster

Woo Hoo! CG's Sweeney busts out "2-4-6-8 Motorway"! I can't believe that Dave (who plays "Glad to be Gay' every frickin' Pride Set) has never played this great great track.
-
I've heard "River Deep, Mtn High" many many times, but it never occurred to me to ask: Was this written for Ronnie Spector, and did Phil then record it with Ike & Tina after Ronnie flew the coop?
-
Mike, hope you're CG'ing for the Clapton!! :wink:

Ha! I was just about to post "Had enough Bad Crapton"! :P
-
OMG! Ollie & Jerry - "there's no Stoppin' Us", from the cinema classic Breakin'.
-
CGSS -- Where the Happy People Go!
-
Miz Millie Jackson sez her man is a sweet man! Lawd!
-
Sylvester, Martha and, er, what's-her-name are dancin' the beat in the disco heat. Alicat cube dancing in full effect, no doubt.
-
Early in the Lost 45s tonight is one I'd been itching to hear for some time: Joe Jeffrey, "My Pledge of Love."

Thanks for the reminder!

wow -- the orig studio version of "Show me the way", which made Franpton a cult artist on NY FM radio in '75.
and now it's Jody Miller's "Queen of the House", the female retort to "King of the Road"!

I think that was the same person who re-recorded "He's So Fine" to the (vague) tune of "My Sweet Lord" in an effort to capitalize on that controversy.
Ooh! War, "Gypsy Man"!

This is quite the date-specific fashback for me -- on a Sunday in mid-Sept of '73, I took my newly-acquired first car (a Toyota Carolla) on a dry run to Fordham Univ to make sure I'd know where I was going the following week when classes started. And I listened to Casey Kasem (a Sun morning staple) the whole trip. Good times!
-
OMFG! "Carolina in the Pines", Michael Murphy's *other* hit. I LOVE this song!
-
Useless trivia: Skip Prokop, who just intro'd the Lighthouse cut here, also wrote 3DN's "I'd Be So Happy."
-
HOLY SHIT!! Byron MacGregor's "The Americans"! Blame Canada!
-
HOLY SHIT 2! Barry Manilow, "When I Wanted You", one of his lesser, more obscure singles, but great to hear nonetheless.
-
The Mojo Men, with their delightfully poppy cover of "Sit Down I Think I Love You". Barry Scott for President!
-
Exciting to hear Susan Cowsill's remake of "It Might As Well Rain Until September." Although I think I would have preferred it as a full-siblings effort.
