that's excellent -- wish Dave'd spin that occasionally. I'm off to funkiness with Judge, but I'm glad KCDX is working.

Yikes, Judge is letting his buddy Damian do yet another long-winded interview (his third in the past month) so I'm doing KCDX for awhile.

and I'm rewarded with Nick Lowe, "Half a Boy and Half a Man"

and then Peter Murphy "Indigo Eyes", pretty good set this hour.

Apparently KPOO is not too concerned with ratings or keeping listeners from switching stations. Man, that is just the dullest thing I've heard on a radio program in ages. Save it for the overnight, guys.

Not only that, but Damian has his OWN friggin' show on Sun afternoon. If he were a good, incisive interviewer, I'd be interested in what the Sylvers family (he seems to be doing a whole series on them) has to say. But he follows every answer with (pause) "wow!" (pause) until it's unbearable

But 'CDX has been swell -- just heard a bizarre remix of Gary Numan's "Cars" that was new to me.

Wonder if Judge doesn't have something else occupying his time (like a job) during his airshift so he needs to find things to fill airtime when he can't be there. If that's the case he needs to look harder. And in the case of today's interview, I think Damian needs to find better subjects--it seemed like Leon Sylvers didn't have too much that was terribly illuminating to share.

OMGWTFLOL! I'm classic country-ing today

and I've been rewarded with Ray Stevens' fabulous, ingenious bluegrassy cover of "Misty".  Guess we couldn't get Ginger to play it again in that '75 set, eh? ;)

my kinda pop-oriented '80s: CG's retro-countdown is from June 1986. Janet Jackson and Madonna are "bubbling under" (with "What Have You Done For Me Lately" and "Live To Tell", respectively) and the #1 song is the remake of "Spirit in the Sky" by Doctor & the Medics that was huge everywhere but here.

A rare show of good taste on the part of the Americans.

LOL!  But an interesting story nonetheless: they were making the album and had sworn they would not do any covers. But the leader (his name escapes me) had a dream, he says, in which he was in a pub having a beer with John Lennon while Marc Bolan sat at a piano singing "Spirit in the Sky".  So they recorded it the next day, and in homage to Bolan, sang the opening line as "when I die and I lay me to Rex". Tee Hee.

TANC: I can't remember where, in the past couple days, I mentioned that Ini Kamoze's "Hotstepper" was ripped off from somewhere else, but here's the song in question on CGSS: The Fatback Band, "Keep On Steppin".

So WLNG cuts to a high school basketball game (!) and KCDX is not working (again) so it's WMIR on Lawn Guyland -- and they do not disappoint: J Geils "One Last Kiss", which I haven't heard in eons.

aaaack! Roxette make an appearance, tastin' like a waindwop. A great intro, followed by 4 mins of irredeemable cheeziness.

WMIR never fails to play some Zappa: "Peaches en Regalia" sounds wonderful this afternoon.

Tuned in to CG to catch Sweeney, and he's taken a sickie. We've got some tart named Sam, but she's playing right decent songs. What A Fool Believes, Meat Loaf's I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That) and now it's the Year of the Cat.

LOL! She was the late-nite chick and then replaced Dean. But now that he's back in evenings she's getting bounced around (as tarts often are!).

def highlight of the afternoon: BoyzIIMen, "Motownphilly". BoyzIIMen, ABC, BBD!  If only this were on Dave's New-Jack radar -- it's about a gazillion times better than Color Me Badd.

and then Greg segs right into Stevie's "Another Star".
