The potential for a nice sampling of '71 variety: R&B, pop, rock, deep album tracks.  Stax o' wax!

One can only hope. But there are enuf lame-oid requests on FB ("Joy to the World"? Really??) that this could be another Oldies 103.7-fest.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

There's one FB poster who has developed serious request diarrhea. S/he requests about 30 songs every damn day, all of which were overplayed on Top 40 back in the day, and are now painfully common on oldies radio. Kind of wishing that AL would ask people to limit their requests to one song again.
Let's get right to it.

There's a whole lotta request diarrhea going on.  But, limiting everyone to one request is cruel. I'd say 3, tops.  That way, Swellegant can get his WTF selection in.  ;)

Oh Joy!  :o In all honesty, it is a good leadoff song, one that I haven't gotten sick to death of.

"Jeremiah was a 'Trina ... was an Oldies 103.7 staple."

Not the first time this has been the TOTHK.

I said "one" because people still didn't comply totally, but the length of their lists was drastically reduced. If everyone kept it to 3 I'd have no problem. Right now it's turned into a contest to name as many songs as you can from the given year.
Let's get right to it.

Rod's no schoolboy but he knows what he likes.  Definitely an overplayed "classic".

"Jeepster" is also a 'trina in both the Morey and AL eras by now. But I do still adore it. And I'm gonna SUCK ya!!!
