News to me.  But I doubt any of the other 10@10 stations would go from Chicago's "Call on Me" to KISS's "Calling Dr. Love" in their A-to-Zs.

indeed, tho' (as so often happens in A-to-Z) the KISS is one they never play, either in regular rotation or during 10@10. I suspect The Bone may play KISS during *their* A-to-Z's.

At least I was on for the Can't section, where two of my absolute favorites that I never tire of get played back to back: "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" & "Can't You See".

Suddenly this "A to Z" has become rather "Fly By Night". Guess "Fly Robin Fly" is out of the question...

Highlight of the hour, for sure: "Folsom Prison Blues".

and Bob heads into the "Fool" songs with Foghat as I switch over to Ginger

Drive still A-to-Z-ing (they're in the S's) so I'm checking out the Duncan Shiek interview on KFOG -- he's plugging the great Spring Awakening, which is in SF for a month -- I *HIGHLY* recommend it.

Drive STILL at it, they're "Up Around" the U's. Good excuse to listen to KPOO...

In case anyone wondered, the Drive has no "X" tunes at all: they went straight from the Police's "Wrapped Around Your Finger" to Al Stewart's "Year of the Cat."

Was listening to the near-end at work tonight.  I'd never heard of Led Zep's "You Shook Me" before, much less heard it; what album is it from?  It's easily the worst LZ I've ever encountered, an awful drug trip of a song.

Leaving now to the strains of "You Wear It Well," which means I won't find out what closes it.  I assume "Ziggy Stardust."

PS: Way too much Tom Petty in the "Y"s.  And almost too much Beatles.

The Drive's 2009 version of A-to-Z is into the "It" songs at the moment.  And I note that the Drive has switched to that same cockamamie "Tune Genie" Just Played List system that The Peak uses.  >:(

The Drive's A-Z continues. They just finished the "Time" songs. In reverse order:

Time Won't Let Me         The Outsiders
Time Waits For No One         The Rolling Stones
Time Passages         Al Stewart
Time Out of Mind         Steely Dan
Time of the Season         The Zombies
Time Is on My Side         Rolling Stones
Time In a Bottle         Jim Croce
Time For Me to Fly         REO Speedwagon
