Title: 5 April 2013: it's...1980
Post by: RGMike on April 05, 2013, 07:52:27 AM
as noted previously, this is "KFOG Ditch Day with Renee" at some ski resort, so presumably Rosalie will be sitting in...  whether she actually does 10@10 too or whether we get a RR "classic" (or a pre-recorded new set) remains to be seen.

Renee's still in studio at 10am? shoudn't she be on the road by now?

1980: Hungry Broooooce to start.  A nice TOTHK -- VHM Flo & Eddie on backing vo.

WTF - I hear Renee!  :o

Still don't know the year yet...  Greg said it was a sad year for music.

At least we know for sure a Bowie song will be played... :P

well, I guess it'll either be "Fashion" or "Scary Monsters" or "Ashes to Ashes".

sad = John Lennon.

1980: Hungry Broooooce to start.  A nice TOTHK -- VHM Flo & Eddie on backing vo.

A decent song, but as usual, when given an album with many potential deep cuts (Sherry Darling would have been a great TOTHK) they go for the hit, that we've heard plenty. Sigh. 

VHM Bruce and John, watching his wheels.

Any bets as to whether we get a cut from Emotional Rescue, since the Stones are on everyone's lips these days.

John Lennon "Watching The Wheels" which charted in 1981

I won't quibble too much here, as the LP came out in Dec and virtually everything on it got major airplay that month.

OTOH: uber-uber-LN "Call Me".

I dunno if Live 105 has played it since they started beefing up on "classic alt" recently, but it was popular on many adventurous album-rock stations at the time, along with the usual New Wave-y suspects (Nick Lowe, Ian Gomm, Police etc)

BOS The Kings. THIS is why I listen to 10@10. I really like hearing a few new-to-me songs that are great or emblematic of a time. Sometimes, I'll hear something that was only a dim memory drifting from a neighbor's car in a driveway 30 years ago and that's a real treat.

A couple of times in the '80s I heard someone say "you'll always find
me in the kitchen at parties" in a sing-song voice, and I assumed it was
from a song.  And lo, twenty-five years later, here it is, busting out
on 10@10.  But it's a pretty weak New Wave tune.

The Seger song is also a bustout, and was nice to hear.

Otherwise it was the usual collection of over-played "hits" that have all
seen multiple appearances on 10@10, including The Kings thing, which is
also a frequent flyer on KFOG's Weekend Salute at 5pm on Fridays.

Just another pedestrian effort.  Blah.  Sadly, with sets like this, I am not
very sorry that the Saturday morning marathon was eliminated.  Listening
to five in a row like this would be a marathon, and not in a good way.

Lately I've been listening to the Saturday morning Beatles (yeah!) on 103.7.

I don't listen to KFOG other than 10@10 so The Kings were NTM. Sorta like your "always in the kitchen" experience but reversed.  :-)
