Title: The Peak, 03/16/06: It's 1989
Post by: Gazoo on March 16, 2006, 07:10:34 AM

From Henley's "New York Minute," we went to a clip from Ridin' Miss Daisy, then to my perennial BOS, Tears For Fears kicking out the Style and bringing back the Jam (one of my favorite double-meaning lines ever).

NEW YORK MINUTE - DON HENLEY
SOWING THE SEEDS OF LOVE - TEARS FOR FEARS
ROCK AND A HARD PLACE - ROLLING STONES
YOU GOT IT - ROY ORBISON
I'M GONNA BE - PROCLAIMERS
ROOMS ON FIRE - STEVIE NICKS
ACHIN' TO BE - THE REPLACEMENTS
LOVE SHACK - B-52'S
WAITED UP - THE SAMPLES
NICK OF TIME - BONNIE RAITT

Well, even Rob falls victim to the Curse of '89: A very Moreyesque set (we're hearing "Love Shack" as I write; fingernails on a  blackboard would be preferable).  Only the Samples and an underplayed Stevie Nicks tune rise above the din here. And Bonnie Raitt still to come.

On the replay, I'm making TFF share BOS with Bonnie Raitt and the Samples.  

Three years ago I did a LONG interview with Sean Kelly of the Samples -- very indepth and nakedly emotional stuff -- and sadly was never able to successfully pitch it anywhere.  (Not even Relix wanted it!)  I still have the tape but only transcribed half of it, disheartened.  God, it's been ages since I did an interview.
