KHUM/CG/KPOO/KRSH/VIP/LNG etc week of 9/4/06

[RGMike]

Oh. My. GOD! The Godfathers, "Birth School Work Death", a great late-'80s song that was quite the alt-radio fave in NY.

[RGMike]

the Mighty Zep, "How Many More Times". Oh, a few, Percy, a few.

[RGMike]

VERY impressive: Steve Forbert "You Cannot Win if You Do Not Play"

[RGMike]

I love de chunky mama!

Mamas & Papas, "Words of Love"

[RGMike]

yay! Cracker, "Eurotrash Girl".

[RGMike]

TANC: HoJo, "Life in One Day" twice in one day.

[RGMike]

wow, Dave Mason, "You Can All Join In", truly a long-lost flashback.

[RGMike]

oo! Mink DeVille's very Lou Reed-ish "Spanish Stroll". I just got the Mink DeVille anthology and can't wait to listen to it.

Nice! Let us know how it is, although I'm sure there are some real gems on there.

'CDX-ing: Steve Miller, "My Dark Hour", new to me (early stuff, I assume) and it contains a riff that he'd later re-use in "Fly Like an Eagle".

[RGMike]

KRSH Soul Patrol -- Darryl Banks in da house!

[RGMike]

Betty Wright, Cleanin' up!

[RGMike]

no idea whose version of "Brown Eyed Girl" this is...

ETA: turns out it was El Chicano of "Viva Tirado" fame.

[RGMike]

WTF pairing of the week, on VIP's Beach Music show: Joey Ramone and General Johnson doing a slow-groovin' Beach version of (what else?) "Rockaway Beach". This is really wonderful.

I know the song you mean, it's on an early greatest hits thing I got at Amoeba earlier this year.  The first time I listened all the way through I heard that riff & excliamed out loud.
