DJ Marilynn doin' her blues thang. KPOO's stream in good shape for the second Monday in a row.
-
Judge promises live Commodores at 3pm. Meanwhile, Gloria Gaynor tells us 'bout "Casanova Brown" -- a looooong version that's new to me.
ETA: Followed by Dave fave "Do It Yourself" and "How High The Moon". Lawd!

Boy... versus Girl... in the World Series of Love! CGSS spins "U Got the Look"! Color me taken aback!
and speaking of taken aback: Greg plays Ray Parker Jr's unjustly forgotten "I Don't Think That Man Should Sleep Alone"
-
Decided to switch over to KCDX (first time in ages) and got Bruce's "E Street Shuffle", followed by Chrissie, "My City Was Gone".
-
Don't think I've EVER heard this Outlaws song before: "Freeborn Man".
-
Don't think I've EVER heard this Outlaws song before: "Freeborn Man".
followed -- OMFG -- by Steppenwolf's great, forgotten "Monster"! Still frighteningly relevant, unfortunately. And it's followed, appropriately, by shray fave Mason Proffitt, "2 Hangmen".

-
Hoo Lawd! Sam & Dave's "Soul Sister Brown Sugar" is my fave forgotten single of theirs -- and yes, they gave Mick Jagger the "Brown Sugar" idea.
-
Dear gawd, I haven't heard this Engelbert H tune since '69!
-
This Herman's Hermits tune "Something's Happening" is new to me (!)
-
"you sip your Napoleon brandy... and you never get your lips wet"
Peter Sarstedt goes down like that vintage brandy. What a fabulous lyric.
-
I'm VERY pissed that they skipped over Nina Simone's "To Love Somebody", the one song in the Top Ten that I was truly dying to hear. Well, ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bro'.
-
Also new to me: Johnny Nash, "You Got Soul"
-
Dear gawd, I haven't heard this Engelbert H tune since '69!
and now here's Donald Peers (who?) with "Please Don't Go" which sounds like an Engelbert reject.
-
puff the magic! Drag on! WLNG plays the original drug song.
-
Ha! Greg on CGSS gives us "Westbound #9" for the 2nd time in as many days. Let's look down Bonnie Sue's low-cut dress!
-
TANC -- KPOO's JJ must be reading Gaz's mind: he gives us the 5th Dimension's 1970 version of "Puppet Man", and it surely is superior to Tom Jones's cover a year later. And it's followed by the Isley's unfairly forgotten "What It Comes Down To", the follow-up to "That Lady", which was a Top 5 R&B single but failed to make the Pop Top 40.
-
"The bluest skies you've ever seen are in Seattle"? Actually, nearly each one I've seen has been a slate gray. Nevertheless, glad Barry Scott trotted this one out tonight.
-
Followed by a major favorite of mine, "Let Me" by Paul Revere & the Raiders (a/k/a Pink Puzz, as they ID'd themselves on the initial vinyl press to reclaim their garage cred).
-
Barry's on a roll! He followed that up with (non-nee Mama) Cass Eliot's "Getting Better," used to fabulous effect in one of my all-time favorite movies, Beautiful Thing.
