KHUM/CG/KPOO/KCDX/VIP/LNG etc week of 1/8/07

KCDX's "just played" feature mis-identifies Michael Penn's "No Myth" as "Someone To Dance With". LOL!

Our "connectivity issues" continue to make buffering a pain -- and I can't even get the VIP homepage to load.  KPOO's stream was virtually impossible when I listened earlier -- I was expecting that, so I brought my FM Walkman so's I can listen to Judge later.

OMFG! Brewer & Shipley, "50 States of Freedom" -- haven't heard this since the '70s, probably.  My last 'CDX tune before switching to Judge, and what a fine way to go out.

Judge appears to be on a disco roll -- Gloria Gaynor, Esther Phillips -- but the buffering is horrendous. And my FM Walkman is worse -- no reception in this building. I'm majorly pissed.

back to 'CDX: new to me, City Boy "The Hap-ki-do Kid" -- no idea which LP this is from, but it sounds like they got tired of channeling Queen & ELO and tried ripping off "Mr Roboto".

and speaking of Styx -- cheeze for lunch!  "Fooling Yourself".

OMG! King Crimson, "21st Century Schizoid Man"!!  This made my day, haven't heard this in decades.

BTW, "Court of the Crimson King" is used to great effect in Children of Men, a tremendous film and a must-see.

April Wine, "Roller".

I just discovered the other day that their 1972 hit "You Could've Been a Lady" was a cover of a Hot Chocolate song -- more than a year before Stories covered HC's "Brother Louie".

OMGWTF-of-the-Day: 'CDX plays Grand Funk Railroad's utterly worthless cover of "Gimme Shelter".  Even worse than BS&T's "Sympathy For the Devil".

happy to say our internet (and streaming) is finally much improved.  So I'm back to VIP, and here's the Supremes' cover of "Stormy".  John Legend, eat yer heart out.

More Supes" "Take Me Where You Go", new to me, and you gotta love a lyric that rhymes "Leather" with "Together".
