Judge scores again with a lost disco nugget: The Raes' "A Little Lovin'". I have not heard this since '78.

Judge is doing, like, an hour of disco. Cheryl Lynn, "Star Love", and the Late Edwin Starr's delightful "H.A.P.P.Y. Radio".

Sounded good but I didn't know it was Donna S.
Most of this is giving me Love Boat flashbacks.

Kudos to Judge for shaking the cobwebs off some amazing stuff today.  Wish Gaz coulda heard some of it.

VIP plays Angie Stone's "Wish I Didn't Miss You", and this is why I hate sampling as a lazy, we-need-a-hook gimmick: There's a great vocal there, and it's upstaged by the fact that we're hearing "Backstabbers" in the background

Is that line from "Lovin' Is Really My Game"?

I halfway agree with you on the Angie Stone: I loved the song when it came out, but that's more a reflection of my love of "Backstabbers" than of Stone's considerable talents.  The sample hook was a natural fit but it could have been interpolated more subtly.

I think that's the name of it; the "now Playing"  feature crapped out when that song came on.

Man, I gotta try to remember to tune him in one of these days. Glad he's still flying the flag and fighting the power. Back in the mid-70s, he did a Sunday evening political rant/call-in show on KZAP in Sacto, which was my one lifeline to the counterculture out in the sierra foothills where I went to HS. Travus T. Hipp's Rawhide Realities Revue, it was called, and he spouted some pretty out-there ideas for the time (and if that wasn't enough, you should have heard a few of the callers!), but it got me thinking about the way things were and how they should be, and definitely made me a more liberal thinker.

CGSS rules!  My fave forgotten Teddy/Blue Notes song, "Satsfaction Guaranteed (Or take Your Love Back)", followed by Billy Paul's Philly-disco remake of "Only the Strong Survive" -- why wasn't this a US hit?

wow, Mr Alpert/Miss Jackson-if-ya-nasty, "Diamonds", which I haven't heard since it was a hit.

Who/what's that?  I imagine it's a soundalike, if not an answer record, to BT Express's "Do It Til You're Satisfied."

OMG. I'm shocked. It's Eddie & the Hot Rods, one of THE great early British punk/new wave singles. A mini-masterpiece, IMHO.  Urth, Mshray, back me up here!

Consider yourself backed. Great tune. Can be found on one of the Rhino DIY comps, among other places.

on Teenage Kicks: UK Pop 1, to be exact.  I assume that series is out of print?  I found four CDs,  UK Pop 1 & 2 and American Power Pop 1 & 2, in the cutout bin at Tower 8 or 9 years ago for 6 bucks apiece.  And boy are they wonderful.

And BTW, Gaz, there IS a song called "Do It Anyway You Wanna" by Peoples Choice (peaked at 11 in '75) which was rather similar to the BT Express tune.

Oops. I responded  to a last-week post of yours (because they played that song you asked about again) and just kept going back.
