CG/KPOO/KCDX etcetcetc for the week of 11/3/08
« on: November 03, 2008, 11:12:39 AM »
WTF-of-the-Day: KPOO's DJ Marilynn is playing Eartha Kitt singing "Come-On-a My House" -- in Japanese! Awesome.

total delight: Marilynn plays "You Can't Stop the Beat" from Hairspray.

"yesterday is history
and it ain't comin' back"

An appropriate number, as Lawrence Welk used to say.

FYI, NYC's oldies outlet CBS-FM is doing their A-to-Z Countdown again (by popular demand):

http://www.wcbsfm.com/

It was really quite wonderful when they did it in July; apparently it's been revised this time to include some Xmas tunes.

glad I switched over to KPOO after Bob -- JJ's doing a date-specific 40-years-ago-today show; he'll be counting down the top 5 soul songs shortly.

So you were like "Yeah!!" ... (~2:45 pause)  "Blecch."

Salute to Obama or Amazing Coincidence? WLNG plays JB, "Say it Loud (I'm Black & I'm Proud)".  Which makes me wonder if Dave may do a "Welcome Obama" set tomorrow  -- not unlike the "what songs would you put on Bush's IPod?" set a few years back..

And here's "Fox on the Run" -- shall we dedicate this to Palin?

followed by a Gaz fave: TinTin's more-BeeGees-than-the-BeeGees "Toast & Marmalade"  Why does that instrument they're playing sound warped?

They and Maurice were playing around in the studio, stretched and warped the tape a bit, and liked the effect - so they did it some more.  I think it verges on ruining the song.

Over to London's Heart Radio for "Club Classics" -- here's Crystal Waters awful "Gypsy Woman (She's Homeless)", which I haven't heard since the early '90s, thankfully. lah-dah-dee, lah-doo-dow.
