T-Bone Burnett's lovely "River of Love" to start. I've only ever heard Ginger play this.

Then "I'll split like love refracted"!  BOS Pretenders, first heard in '85 in the movie Gung Ho! but not an official release until '86.

Not sure if "Cash Talkin'" is from The Color of Money, but cute segue in any case.

WOS to Jackson Browne - intelligent lyrics, but dull music, and the woodwinds sound like they're played by one of those cloned sherpa-clad outfits up by Fisherman's Wharf.

You're a "Super Patriot" now.  Is that a good thing?

I faintly remember this song, but didn't know about the PA connection.

Certainly not the first band that springs to mind when you say "'80s synthesizer pop"...

For that, we roll tape to HoJo.  Maybe ...?

Woo Hoo!

Just noticed your posts had a new "rank" (what do we call those things anyway?) and a row of smileys instead of stars. 30002 and counting! Many congrats on your, umm, loquaciousness, and thanks for keeping the conversation going!

Ginger wins segue of the week!  From girls on penicillin to the Fab T-Birds, um, "Wrap It Up."  I would too!

BOS early Lyle Lovett. Why isn't he writing songs like this anymore?

and was that clip from Raising Arizona?

Ahhh, BOS Lyle.

Had car trouble & got in late, plus I have a 10:00 conf call, so this might be all I get today.

First they've got "It's-my-car-now-daht-cahm"; now Tom Shane is using slang like "it's totally chill" and "no one's going to get up in your grill"--I'm not sure if I should be offended at their pandering or just confused.

Hearing hip-hop commercials on stations that don't play hip-hop (and for whom a goodly percentage of the audience probably don't like the stuff) is kinda silly, at best. The one you mention (and a similar one for MSN, who are trying again to turn themselves into Google/Yahoo/AOL) is quite annoying.  Hearing Mr Shane do slang is pretty hilarious, but this stuff is creeping into the language -- see the MSNBC "pimping" controversy.  Recently I saw one of the incredibly whitebread Weather Channel guys giving a ski report and referring to the post-storm accumulation at some resort as "sick" -- first time I'd heard anyone over 25 use that word in such a context.

and speaking of, I just heard both the "It's mah car now" and MSN commercials on 'BCO within minutes of each other.
