KHUM/CG/etcetcetc for the week of 1/29/07
« on: January 29, 2007, 11:28:13 AM »
well, KPOO's still not working for me, so I'm doing KOMY's oldies feed again, and again they're quite impressive: GrassRoots, "Lovin' Things" followed by BoxTops, "Sweet Cream Ladies" and my absolute favorite 4 Seasons song, "Opus 17".

another lesser-played 4 Seasons tune: "C'mon Marianne". I really gotta see Jersey Boys.

and another OMG -- Johnny Rivers, "Summer Rain"

Bummer that your player is still OTL. Judge's been playing a realy nice set--Major Harris's Love Won't Let Me Wait a few minutes ago, and now it's the Pointer Sisters How Long (Betcha got a Chick on the Side)--both great, both long unheard to my ears.

ETA: Followed up by Grandmaster Flash, Rapper's Delight.
Let's get right to it.

I'm baffled as to what the problem is -- but I must say this KOMY oldies feed is a major find -- Gaztastic, in fact (as I write they're playing "12:30" by the M's & P's). I'll have to ask Geoff if he can figure out a "back-door" way of avoiding the KPOO player and using a generic WMP (as he has with KFOG and The Drive).

But I did get to hear "Soul Deep" on KOMY.

Indeed.  It's on their 2-CD greatest-hits comp that I reviewed for AMG a few years ago:

Celebrate: The Three Dog Night Story, 1965-1975

Title's just "Roses and Rainbows."

Damn, you rattled off some SERIOUS faves of mine today.  I need some free time to check this stuff out.

Back to KOMY, and y'know, I joked yesterday that it was "Gaztastic" but it's like they're inside his head! Here's The GrassRoots, "Wait a Million Years" followed by Paul Revere, "Kicks".

I just ordered a fine GrassRoots Best-of from Amazon for 7 or 8 bucks (yes, the real thing, not the must-to-avoid re-recorded-versions CD that's floating around.)  I also finally went for a complete Hollies collection by ordering the Epic Records  Anthology (everything from "Carrie Anne" to "Sandy" for only $2.49!) and a British collection of all the early stuff for 7 bucks or so.

from Gaz-tastic to Morey-riffic: Flirtations, "Nothin' But a Heartache".

followed by Lloyd Price, "Personality". Tony Orlando did a nice shoulda-been-a-hit cover of this circa '75 or so.

KOMY is getting a tad repetitive: I'm hearing a lot of songs I heard yesterday and Monday. But here's an Elvis tune I don't think I've ever heard, "I Gotta Know".

"Just Once in My Life", a forgotten Righteous Bros hit. I forget whether this is Spector or imitation-Spector.
