another week, another KPOO Monday -- Stevie Wonder doing "The Shadow of Your Smile" (!?!)
-
Judge gives us Kid Creole, "I'm a Wonderful Thing, Bay-bay"!
-
Jarreau Hands! "Teach Me Tonight".
-
what I assumed was a ballad by a fierce soul diva turned out to be --- Ronnie Dyson. (oops!) "Heart To Heart", new to me.
-
The Woods Empire (who??) doing a rather nice early-'80s cover of Deon Jackson's "Love Makes the World Go Around". New to me.
-
ooo! Odyssey's "Inside Out".
-
wow, 1982 Sly, "Ha-Ha Hee-Hee". New-new to me-me.
-
KCDX gives us the Tourists/Eurythmics verson of "I Only want to Be With You" -- and I heard the Bay City Rollers cover on the Lost 45s countdown Sunday. Now Listen, honey!
-
Until this pops up in one of Rob's Peak sets from the mid-'70s, I've gotta assume the only place I'll ever hear "Hey Injun Joe" by the Good Rats is on this pirate station from Long Island. A great overlooked band that never got their due.
-
KCDX brings my meeting-interrupted afternoon to a sublime close with Zep's "Rain Song".
-
wow, 1982 Sly, "Ha-Ha Hee-Hee". New-new to me-me.
This is the only listenable track from his Ain't But the One Way disaster. Sly's a druggy nonpresence on the whole disc, and can't even claim credit for "Ha Ha, Hee Hee," which his rent-a-trumpeter wrote for the album IIRC.
-
Today's "theme" on CBS-FM is Remakes -- we're getting the Shirelles' "Baby it's You" back-to-back with (TANC) Smith. I didn't know that's actually Burt Bacharach playing organ on the Shirelles version!
-
also on CBS-FM, the "duet" version (Elvis and LisaMarie) of "In the Ghetto" -- new to me.
-
back from an early lunch & decided to do the Deep Tracks thing. First three songs have been:
HELLBOUND TRAIN by SAVOY BROWN
STREET FIGHTING MAN by ROD STEWART
CAN'T FIND LOVE by JEFFERSON STARSHIP
-
The long-haired hippies
And the Afro-blacks
All get together
Across the tracks
and they PAR-TAY!
WLNG gets on the goodfoot.
-
OMFG! Debbie Gibson's "Shake Your Love", which i haven't heard in eons (and which would've brightened Dave's '87 set yesterday).
-
OMFG2! Donny Osmond, "Sweet & Innocent".
-
OMFG3 -- "Shame shame", the Magic Lanterns, one of the great lost perfect-pop singles of all time.
-
OMFG3 -- "Shame shame", the Magic Lanterns, one of the great lost perfect-pop singles of all time.
Never heard of it (or at least doesn't rign a bell at all), what year was it?
ETA: nevermind, remembered that I had Whitburn at my desk now - it's 1968.

I seem to recall us discussing it here quite a while ago (maybe Dave played it once? or Bob?)
And speaking of '68, they just played Gene & Debbie's anachronistic teen-dream duet from that year, "Playboy", which sounds like it belongs in '63 alongside Paul & Paula. 'LNG has been killer today.
-
Yikes, KCDX unearths Frampton's white-boy cover of "Signed Sealed & Delivered". I'm embarrassed to admit I liked this back in '77.
-
Rare is the Motown hit I haven't heard before, but here's Mary Wells' "You Lost the Sweetest Boy", a #22 charter in '63.

Even more obscure: Sonny & Cher, "But You're Mine".

I don't know that 10@10's played it, but Mike, I put it on a cassette mix for you eons ago, I think. I'd recorded it off Barry Scott and was similarly impressed (though I liked even better their years-later also-shoulda-beena-hit "One Night Stand").
-
CG's Sweeney gives us Crispian St Peters, "Pied Piper", followed by 10cc's great, little-heard "I'm Mandy, Fly Me". Just like the girl... in Dr. No, no, no, no.
-
And here's Joe Cocker's fab orig studio version of "Delta Lady" -- an FM staple back in the day, now largely forgotten.
-
Have mercy! CGSS plays the looong version of "Boogie Down", with the "let my love flood your Watergate" (!) line that you rarely hear. And it's followed by KC's delightful "Give it Up".
-
En Vogue gives to the needy, but not the greedy! mmm-mmm, that's RIGHT! "Cause if ya lock it, ya lose it! Oh if only this one was on Dave's radar. Time for a breakdown indeed.
-
After spending 2 hours with the Monkees last week, Little Steven kicks off this week's show with a salute to "Shindig" -- which amazingly was only on the air for 16 months on ABC (about as long as its NBC counterpart "Hullabaloo" lasted).
-
Little Steven's "Coolest Song of the Week" is "Don't Change", from Mick Jaggers new best-of-his-solo-stuff compilation -- an unreleased track produced by John Lennon that's been in the vault for 30+ years. ("It was in May Pang's pocketbook" quipped Steven.)
