24 Feb 2012: it's... 1969!!!
« on: February 23, 2012, 08:52:43 PM »
yes, that rare week with '60s AND '70s.  The thread is up and running; making requests is almost pointless in a year like '69 but have at it.

Funny, my initial reaction when I see we're going to a year like '69 is "Woohoo! Good set comin'!" But so many of the recent 60s and 70s sets have been LN-a-thons that I am quickly brought back to earth once I have a chance to think about it a little.

Here's hoping tomorrow's effort proves me wrong.
Let's get right to it.

I requested "You Got the Silver" by Keef The Stones.  Won't be able to listen since I'm working at the school again.  Hope it's a good one!   :)

You will be wrong good man. I am optimistic it will a set of fabulousness. I have the Flirtations on in the background right now. Stevie Wonder up next. Comfort music. HappyCat.

AL's promo for today says "this year has it all: Pop, rock, soul, proto-punk..."  which leads me to suspect we're gonna hear the Stooges.

and AL sez "it's 1969, OK?" but starts with Chicago. She also says "song 10 will blow you away!"  Hrm.

I was a fan in the, er, beginning. By '78 or so... notsomuch.  This is our typical overexposed TOTHK. But things can only get better.

trombon-a-phone for me.

kinda muddy production on some of Chicago's stuff.  Make Me Smile comes to mind as a particularly notable offender.
