Mon 12/13/10: 1965!!
as Stones go by... ah can't HELP mahself! BOS the Vogues' fab "5 O'Clock World" -- an early Allen Reynolds comp (he later became a successful country producer). Note the similarity to Petula's "I Know a Place" -- Julian Cope did.

BOS2 Byrds, "Feel a Whole Lot Better"
always an uber-BOS3 for "Eve of Destruction" -- nicely segued from "Like a Rolling Stone". Harmonicas rule!
VHMs Kinks and Them
OMFG! uber-BOS4 HA&tTJB, "A Taste of Honey". Proxy of Gaz.

Today's '84 set offers "Do They Know It's Christmas" - amazingly, the first time I've heard this song this season. (After 28 incidences of "Feliz Navidad" and more calling out from Johnny Mathis than one hears in a year at the Powerhouse.)

WOS Survivor's "High On You," with whose lyric the singer can't decide if he's singing to the desired girl or a third party. Sheesh, this is awful.

BOS Yes, "L-D R-A"
Hey Loggins & Messina: "Yo' MAMA!"
Look out Stevie: ladder 'bout to fall.
BOS2 Stones, who need a love to keep 'em "Happy". Well, that and several billion.
BOS3 the rarity of "Relay" by the 'oo.
VHM America, giving Prince a phrase to steal in 12 years and Janet Jackson a riff to sample 2 decades hence.
"They smile in yo' face -- and all the time they on da down low!" whut dey doin' indeed. VHM O'jays.Maybe they should hook up with Ziggy, well-hung and snow-white-tan. Or something.

Loggins & Messina - Your Mama Don't Dance
Stevie Wonder - Superstition
Rolling Stones - Happy

Well, he WAS known as "the African Queen" ;)
and TANC: The Boardwalk just played his ill-fated disco version of "Begin the Beguine", which he apparently thought would be his "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine".

Thur 12/16/10: Bo Diddley Beat!
is it his B-Day? (ETA: no it's next week)
c'mon, guys, Crapton's lethargic "Hand-Jive" was unnecessary. But BOS the Strangeloves, though I prefer my "Candy" sweaterless. VHM Brooooce.
I don't wanna cause no fuss, but VHM to "Magic Bus". And if I were making a list of Diddley-beat tunes, "Magic Carpet Ride" would not be on it.
Animals - The Story of Bo Diddley
Eric Clapton - Willie and the Hand Jive
Strangeloves - I Want Candy
Bruce Springsteen - She's the One
George Thorogood - Who Do You Love
Who - Magic Bus
Rolling Stones - Not Fade Away
Steppenwolf - Magic Carpet Ride
U2 - Desire
Bo Diddley - Bo Diddley

aaack. "Bad Love", bad Crapton.
aaack2: Skid Row.
Petty's in free-fall. So's this set.
VHM "Love & Rockets", katrina tho' it is; the closest to "alternative" (or pop) we'll get in this set, I'm guessing.
SRV: Zzzzzz.
Great White almost get a VHM for the cheeze factor. Almost.
Even Bob plays SF-quake clips in '89! Summary: WOSes to Crapton, Skid Row, Aerosmith and Bad English; "feh" to nearly everything else. Young MC or Neneh Cherry woulda brightened things up considerably.
Eric Clapton - Bad Love
Skid Row - I Remember You
Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers - Free Fallin'
Love and Rockets - So Alive
Stevie Ray Vaughan - Crossfire
Don Henley - The Last Worthless Evening
Great White - Once Bitten Twice Shy
Joe Cocker - When the Night Comes
Aerosmith - What it Takes
Bad English - When I See You Smile
