the best Motown Monday is KHUM IMHO, although today it's interspersed with local political candidates given air time.

Some lady running for city council, talking about how the homeless are there because of bad choices, and it's just too bad, but not her fault.

"back in the depression, we didn't have all  this..."

Good thing the Drive '67 set didn't include the Cowsills' "Newspaper Blanket"!

I won't get into how much we can thank Reagan for the homelessness problem, though Shray's welcome to quote from "The Clothes Have No Emperor" if he sees fit.

Bailed on a VERY long-winded interview on KPOO and clicked on KCDX in time for Frampton, "I Wanna Go To The Sun". Haven't heard this in ages.

followed by the loooooooooooooong version of CCR's "Grapevine" cover.

No shit, long-winded. I came back from lunch around 2, it was still going on, left my headphones sitting on the desk while doing a few other things, hoping they'd finish up. Finally bagged it some time after 2:30. Jeez, their audience must have been down to zero by then.

I'm picturing the host begging Judge to let him do the show this week: "Man, I got an interview with STEVE ARRINGTON!!"  And Judge saying "Yeah , sure, whatever, go for it".  But lawd -- you interview for 10 minutes, play a few tunes, interview some more... not 90+ minutes of phone-quality Q&A with a guy who just goes on & on & on. "Let me tell you about the day I met Coke Escovedo..."

TANC: 2 days after Gaz posted about it, here's Eighth Day, "You Got To Crawl Before You Can Walk".

and -- OMG! -- followed by "Bring The Boys Home", aka "Vietnam With Violins" as Christgau once famously quipped.

New to me: Archie Bell, "Where Will You Go When the Party's Over?", a very good O'Jays imitation -- sounds like they stole the backing track from "I Love Music".

now there's a segue: From "Court of the Crimson King"... to Carole King (en espanol, por favor, "Corazon").

and followed by Ms Benatar, "Invincible"!  Which sounds rather Madonna-ish to me now. Am I crazy?

thanks for the reminder!

VIP Beach Music Friday: Viola Wills' version of "If You Could Read My Mind", which presumably predates the dance version from the 54 sndtk (and I'm guessing they stole the idea from her, since her version never charted, afaik).
