CG/KPOO/KCDX etcetcetc for the week of 2/11/08
« on: February 11, 2008, 11:15:44 AM »
DJ Marilynn on KPOO gives us a live Ray Charles/Ree-Ree duet of "Spirit in the Dark" -- "ah discovered Ray Charles", sez Aretha, paraphrasing an old Filp Wilson line.

Judge plays a Johnny 'Guitar' Watson tune called "Love Jones" that totally rips off the melody from the Emotions' "Don't Ask My Neighbors".

JJ starts off with the orig "Share Your Love with Me" by Bobby Blue Bland, later covered by Ree-Ree and (in an underrated '80s version) by Kenny Rogers with help from Gladys Knight.

JJ kicks off his KPOO set with a version of "Share Your Love With Me" that I don't recognize.  I only know Aretha's (and am vaguely aware that Kenny Rogers covered it too).

"Little" Carl Carlton -- Dave played that once on a Soul Patrol, iirc. 

OOO! The Originals' creamy-dreamy "Baby I'm Fo' Reals".

Koko Taylor physically isn't able to dial it down, I suspect.

and "bubbling under" the top 20 -- early solo Roger Daltrey, "Giving it All Away".

followed by -- holy crap! -- Elvis Presley's cover of "Polk Salad Annie". Isn't this another of those songs that he turned down originally, then started doing in his act after someone else had the hit?
