Er...better late than never?  Or maybe she's not (or can't?) really taking requests anymore and this is the proverbial bone being thrown at us.

Anyhoos...Echo Beach, anyone?

She might schedule them to go live in the morning while she's still sleeping.

This song on the stream sounds like it's ripping off the melody of "Touch of Grey".

so far, a sledgehammer set.  my local AOR station was playing all this stuff -- well, except for the Jam.  That was to advanced for them (and me) at that point.


ETA:   Bob Seger brings it all crashing back with working class barooom blooze.   never took to this one.

Just listened to this set.... frankly, I enjoyed the living bejesus out of it. Even the overplayed XTC.

nuthin' matters but the weak end.

It was certainly enjoyable, and covered many bases,  tho' the XTC and Blondie are LNs -- but AL's '90s LNs are... LN-ier

I'd add the George Benson tune to the LN List for today. That one appears an even 10 times in the Shraytabase during the Morey era; no idea how much it's appeared since then.
