26 April 2017: it's... 1974

[RGMike]

A varied (mostly-)Top 40 radio kinda set, which goes to eleven.

[RGMike]

I thought "Mr Microphone" was an '80s thing?

ETA: '78 or '79 at the earliest

[RGMike]

sounds like the orig studio version of "No Woman No Cry", rather than the later live take we're used to.

[urth]

Kind of an MOR-y set (not to be confused with a Morey set, which we haven't gotten a new one of for about 8 and a half years). But not bad.

4/26:

On today’s edition of Soundwaves 10@10, we’ll hear the first song ever performed on
Saturday Night Live, the #1 pop song of the year, and a song about the music industry
that is so brutally honest, it’s amazing it ever got recorded. Check out song #3 today.
