Judge starting out with some weirdass ParliaFunkaClintonBootsy stuff.
If you've ever seen P-Funk (or the subsequent P-Funk Allstars), you've probably seen Sir Nose D'voidafunk. He's a buffed out guy in a mask with a rather dildo-eque nose who has no concept of rhythm or groove whatsoever. He appears throughout their show and the band tries to deliver a funky enough groove to get Sir Nose to dance. Of course, around the end of each show, they get the job done and Sir Nose strips down and gets down.
Btw, has Judge changed the name of his show to "Total Experience in Soul"? I kind of dug the extra latitude the name "total experience in sound" gave him, but he's playing cool stuff either way.

Yeah, I think the title change was deliberate; I haven't heard any "white" music in a couple of weeks.
Your P-Funk story reminds me of the hilarious bit the Onion did a few years back: the P-Funk Mothership lands at a Hootie & the Blowfish concert, and hundreds of white yuppies are horrified. But none as horrified as Darius Rucker, who says: "This oddly dressed man accosted me and said that if I were to free my mind, my posterior would surely follow! I mean, really!"

"Don't call me Nigger, Whitey!" Judge should follw this with that Pryor/Chase "Word Assiciation" bit from SNL.
-
Love Unltd, "Under the Influence of Love"! Where's Gaz?

Oh I LOVE that one! Sorry I missed it here in Janeland. Love Unltd have become an unqualified favorite of mine, and I'm damn near in lust with the James sisters (left and right):

here's the lyrics, but they don't make much sense. No doody-bubble references...
Don't Call Me Whitney, Bobby lyrics
Artist: Islands
Album: Return To The Sea
Year: 2006
Title: Don't Call Me Whitney, Bobby
Bones bones brittle little bones
its not the milk you seek
its the sun you need
and the sleek sleek skeleton i hold
where are the hidden folds
wheres the meat that you eat
total boy
tells me stories
sometimes they make me sorry
i need another
i need another
sugar doughnut and muffin baby
this world is going crazy
i think i'm through listening to you
bones bones brittle little bones
its not the milk you see
its just the sun you need
and the sleek sleek skeleton i hold
where are the hidden folds
where is the meat that you eat
gonna make some plans
wait and see
turn it off
turn me on
open your eyes look around you
fuck what you heard
you were lied to
sweetheart
sick body part
sickheart
sweet body part
bones bones brittle little bones
its not the milk you seek
its the sun you need
and the sleek sleek skeleton i hold
where are the hidden folds
where's the meat that you eat

Yet another freeform station that is now streaming -- KHUM up in Humboldt.
http://www.khum.com/
I'll have to check 'em out tomorrow.
-
Sometime during the 3:00 hour, Judge played a great latter-day Tempts tune that I hadn't heard before. Was hoping Mike would be listening as I have no idea waht it was and missed the backsell if there was one.
And now the guy that follows Judge is playing a cover of Moonlight Mile that again is totally new to me. Quite excellent nonetheless.

I put a link up. I'm a sucker for any station that mentions Garberville, Redway, Ferndale, etc. The Lost Coast; my kind of heaven!

The Tempts song was "Power", from 1980, an R&B hit that just missed the pop Top 40. An apparent attempt to do socially relevant material for Motown again after their brief late-'70s sojourn on Atlantic.
Sorry I missed that "Moonlight Mile" cover -- a jazz thing?

More slide guitar blues/r&b. Just did a search of AMG for it, and I think it was probably Alvin Youngblood Hart. He did it on a Stones tribute in '97 and then it appeared again on a House of Blues release called "This Ain't No Tribute" that was exactly that. Both news to me, but he did a pretty decent take on the song.

JJ's KPOO plays the Dionne Warwick version of "Wishin' & Hopin'". Followed by Jerry Butler, "Make it Easy on Yourself" -- a Bacharach twin-spin!

I've only ever heard the Walker Bros. version of MIEOY -- does either Butler's or Warwick's rendition aspire to such high drama? Or completely different arrangement?

Butler's arrangement is similar and some would say his version is the definitive one (it came first, iirc).
But Dusty's is the W&H for the ages -- I didn't realize Dionne did it first (as a B-side).
-
CG plays Elvis, "If I Can Dream", his true "comeback" hit from late '68.
-
uncage the colors! unfurl the flag! CG plays Bowie, "Boys Keep Swinging".
-
Chairmen of the Board, "Everything's Tuesday".
-
"be my A-side, baby
be B-side me"
CG plays the fab "18 with a Bullet".
-
oooh! the Housemartins lovely cover of "Caravan of Love".
-
Just switched over to KHUM (they actually pronounce it Kay-Hum) and first thing I hear is James Brown, "Hot Pants"!
followed by a band called Exit Clove (?) doing a cover of T.Heads "This Must Be the Place".

I've just really enjoyed KHUM. They played an equest for me very quickly yesterday, and it's so laid back and unprofessional, it's very relaxing. Yah mon, I feel like I'm in a redwood grove, just chillin'
-
Wilco/Billy Bragg, "California Stars". How this song managed to go mostly ignored by KFOG, I'll never know. I'm quite impressed by KHUM so far.
-
CG gets a bustle up their hedgerow and plays "Stairway to Heaven".
-
wow, Leo Sayer's "Moonlighting" (NOT the TV theme), from '75 and I haven't heard it since then, probably.
-
wow #2, Rod & the Faces, "Cindy Incidentally".
-
"it's not a trip at all..."
But it IS the Turtles' "You Showed Me" on WLNG.

But it IS the Turtles' "You Showed Me" on WLNG.
Is that the line? I've always heard it as "it's not a trick at all" (as in, you showed me a magic trick). But admittedly "trip" is more sensible in the song's placement as a follow-up to their previous singles, "She's My Girl" and "Sound Asleep."

You showed me how to say
Exactly what you say
In that very special way
Oh, oh, oh, it's true
You fell for me too
And when I tried it
I could see you fall
And I decided
It's not a trip at all
A play on words, perhaps, as in "have a nice trip ... see you next fall"?

hey Mike, where was it that the old SNL sketch with Richard Prior & Chevy Chase got mentioned recently?

in this very thread --Mon afternoon when Judge on KPOO played Sly's "Don't Call Me Whitey, Nigger". I suggested he should play that bit after it.
-
Oh My! Tom Jones w/Mousse T, "Sex Bomb", delicious cheeze for lunch.
-
Chairmen of the Board, "Danglin' on a String". fabtastic.
I wonder if this is Flaming Ember backing them up? Similar guitar sound to "Westbound #9".

About half an hour ago, I got the news that an old friend from my ABC days was killed over the weekend -- a biking accident while he was on vacation in Maine. He was 52. Too, too young.
Just now someone called CG to request Aerosmith's "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing" -- the caller said it had been played earlier today at a friend's funeral. Now, it's never been a favorite song of mine, but I'm sure hearing it with different ears right now...

Sorry to hear that Mike. Take care today, OK?

OMG, Alphaville "Big in Japan". Haven't heard this in ages.
-
Martha/Vandellas, "Forget Me Not", a you're-going-away-to-war-and-I'm-gonna-miss-you-boy song that came out in '71, just a tad too late to sound current, not with "Bring The Boys Home" on the charts.

Oh no - I'm very sorry to hear this. I hope it's consolation that he died doing something he enjoyed. Hope you're holding up OK, bud.

Pre-CGSS, it's Dexy's underheard cover of "Jackie Wilson Said"
-
Joe Tex ain't gonna bump no mo' with Oprah. or Mo'nique. Always a pleasure to hear this disco gem.
OMG -- the loooong version! "It takes 2 hands to handle a Whopper" indeed!

I'll throw you out a few words - anything that comes to your mind, just throw back at me, okay? It's kind of an arbitrary thing. Like, if I say "dog", you'd say..?

Mr. Wilson: Your momma!
Interviewer: [ fumbling ] Uh.. $7,500 a year?
Mr. Wilson: Your grandmomma!
Interviewer: [ desperate ] $15,000, Mr. Wilson. You'll be the highest paid janitor in America. Just, don't.. don't hurt me, please..
Mr. Wilson: Okay.
Interviewer: [ relieved ] Okay.
Mr. Wilson: You want me to start now?
Interviewer: Oh, no, no.. that's alright. I'll clean all this up. Take a couple of weeks off, you look tired.

one of the best bits they ever did -- I have it on the SNL album that came out in '76 or '77. It's got "Chevy's Girls" on it too.
-
more Chairmen of the Board -- "Everything's Tuesday", feelin' light & woozy!
oops -- time to switch to KRSH Soul Patrol!
-
The Isleys put it in the "Layaway", then Honey Cone puts it in the "Want Ads".
-
OMGWTF! Millie Jackson's fab-yoo-luss "Hurts So Good" from the sndtk of Cleopatra Jones. This has made my day.
"it ain't no good
til it hurts a little bit"
Yowsah!
-
OMGWTF2: Mink DeVille, "Little Girl".
ETA: I just ordered a 22-track best-of Mink DeVille on Amazon for $5.36.
-
Hoo Lawd! and OMGWTF3: Tavares' fine cover of "She's Gone".
-
yikes... thanx to Greg on CGSS, I get to hear "Psychedelic Shack" twice in one day. My mind is blown, all right -- but not in a good way.
-
Greg plays that "new" Luther V track, "Shine", which samples Chic's "My Forbidden Lover", and then plays the Chic orig.
-
VIP's Beach Music show plays... Bette Midler? I loves me some Divine Miss M, but her cover of "Hang on in There Baby"? pretty cheezy, not to mention unnecessary.
