Bob kicks off a week without a single '80s set. Yay!!
VH look for beautiful girls; CDB find the Devil.
BOS and Cheeze for Breakfast: Rainbow's "Since You've Been Gone". VHM the Iggles finest ballad, "I Can't Tell You Why"
Mother do you think they'll get sick of this Floyd? VHM lesser-heard Supertramp.
BOS2 Tim the Enchanter!
ELO: surely "snake in the grass/ break your glass" was orig written as "Snake in the grass/kick your ass", no? Was radio really that timid in '79? I mean, Blondie said "pain in the ass'...

Wed 3/9/11: 1966
bet it goes to 11...
BOS the Shadows of Knight version of "G-L-O-R-I-A". Sam & Dave are holdin' on and comin'. As do most of us.
any other Kinks tune woulda got BOS2 but "Sunny Afternoon" will settle for a VHM. But always a BOS (and proxy of Irish Greg) "Wouldn't it Be Nice?"
VHM Neil D -- he's solitary, man. So's Mickey D, on the last train.
BOS3 and proxy of Gaz Raiders, "Hungry". Ah kin almos' TASTE it! Dylan gets stoned, the Hollies get caught in the rain and the Troggs sing for Coke.
uber-BOS4 to my fave Beatle B-side, "Rain"

Thur 3/10/11: On the telephone
ah, Bell's B-day was last week but today's the anniv of the invention itself. No surprise that we start with ELO.
Hey Jenny: Bob's got yer number.
BOS1 Mr Croce's "Operator". Guess the Manhattan Transfer tune of the same name is too much to hope for.
aaack: Phunky Phil says "Don't Lose My Number" -- I assume Steely Dan will have a similar sentiment for us shortly.
wow: Foreigner's "Love On The telephone" may be an ATBB. VHMFRA. And sure enuf, the Dan arrive.
Figures they'd find a SRV song about a phone call ::)
Blondie says "Call Me", mon cherie. And Sugarloaf make a predictable appearance.
