on Offshore radio: Beryl Marsden (who?) with the orig version of "Breakaway", re-done in the '80s by Tracey Ullman.
-
another obscure nugget: Four Tops, "What Is a Man?"
-

another obscure nugget: Four Tops, "What Is a Man?"
A favorite of mine. Sounds like a poem set to music. That one and "A Simple Game" deserved much better.
-
fab obscure Monkees: "Look Out Here Comes Tomorrow". Was this a B-side? Another Neil Diamond comp.

Offshore Radio continues to amaze. A British cover of "Ain't That Peculiar" by the Lovin' Kind (?) and the fabulous sunshiny Montanas, "You Gotta Be Loved"

listening now, Sandie Shaw is ripping through Always Something There to Remind Me. shuffle bossa beat, twangy guitars, yelping trombones, it's got it all.

Offshore Radio: here's the Guess Who's Laughing. Couple weeks back I went to the San Mateo County Fair and the current lineup of the Guess Who were there.. They should be called Guess Who We're Supposed To Sound Like?
har har , ok, so they have the same bass player and drummer, but no Randy Bachman or Burton Cummings.
-
Pet Clark, "the Other Man's Grass is Always
Stronger Greener".
Followed by the Ferns Brass Foundry (!?!), "Don't Change It", obviously '60s but sounding like Tower Of Power's "This Time It's Real"
-
Nashville Cats by the Lovin' Spoonful!
I hope the Del McCoury band does this at Hardly Stricly Bluegrass

Nashville Katz -- he owned a Kosher deli.
this early Ike'n'Tina thing, "Tell Her I'm Not Home", is NTM and a stone gas.
-
"when I was small
and Christmas trees were tall..."
BeeGees forgotten "First of May", just lovely.
-
OMGWTFLOL! Skope -- "Be Mine Again", the orig translation-from-Italian of the song that later became "Live For Today". one! two! three! four!

I think I missed this one. This station can be an embarrassment of riches, esp if your riches are seldom heard pop nuggets from the 60s/70s.
-
Holy frijoles! The Equals (f/Eddie Grant) do a song called Laurel and Hardy. Pretty fun and way less annoying that Electric Avenue.
-
Lawd have mercy! Joe South, "Games People Play". this one makes my day.
People walking up to ya
Singing glory hallelujah
And they're tryin to sock it to ya
In the name of the Lord
followed by "Psychotic Reaction"! an embarrassment of riches indeed, TC.
-
UK oddity: Otis' version of "My Girl", which reached #11 over there in '65 while the Tempts' orig did nothing until it was reissued in 1992!
-
Holy crap! Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich, "Zabadak"!
-
Holy crap! Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich, "Zabadak"!
yeah, that was fun. Absolutely NTM, as are many songs here. who did the one before "Zabadak"? "Johnny Stay Away" I think it was? sounded a tad like Lulu? I didn't see a playlist on their site, maybe I'm not looking in the right place.

there's a "now playing" strip at the top of their web page; it often changes before the song is half-over. DD,D,B,M&T were HUGE in the UK -- 13 hits betw '65 and '69 -- and completely unknown in the states.
-
OMFG! The Tokens' sweet, 4 Seasons-ish "She Lets Her Hair Down" -- it was orig a shampoo commercial.
