nice CG surprise: the Byrds' "Chestnut Mare", which was a decent-sized hit in the UK.

Caught the end of a Pryor bit called The Eulogy (so said Judge in the backsell--I don't know Pryor's records that well) and as you predicted, Judge promised more as the day progresses.

ETA: Their stream is buffering occasionally. It was bad at first, got better, but now seems to be slipping. Dammit.

Judge plays white people too!  Gino Vanelli,"I Just Wanna Stop". Nicest surprise of the afternoon.

He played the BeeGees earlier, one of the hits from SNF but I can't recall which--Night Fever maybe?

A new channel of completely indie rock -- most of whom are from the St. Louis area, if that's of any interest to Mshray:

on CG, the Rubettes, "I Can Do it", which sounds a bit like Queen of all things -- would that Freddie had covered it.

My CG highlight (so far): Paul Young's cover of  "Love of the Common People", originally the Winstons' follow-up to "Color Him Father".

Here's a couple stations I've been listening to of late for indie rock, one a community station from Loyola U. in Chicago, the other a web-only streaming outfit from right here in SF:

(SOMAfm has several channels like trance and ambient beats that I can pass on, but the Indie pop rocks! channel is pretty cool.)

I'm trying their "Xmas in Frisko" channel... I'm hearing a "duet" of "Rudolph" featuring the Chipmunks and Rudolph himself (sounds like the guy who did the voice on the TV special). WTF?!?

ETA: This Xmas channel has everything from Snoop Dogg to the Carpenters.  pretty amazing so far.
