Wow indeed! I tuned in about 2 minutes ago and I'm still speechless. Am I listening to Irwin's show??!
Joe McG:
Matt from Springfield:
Still great though, and still reekin' of early 70s Brit rock vocals!
Irwin:

(awed gasp) Was that...the ORIGINAL 45 you digitized for the CD?? (drops to knees, sits on feet and humbly wais, bowing head)

Nah, the sound quality is probably too high and the scratchiness too low in my sound files. Never mind--play on!

Did you listen to the KUSF DJs in Exile on Billy Jam this Friday? 5 minutes before the end, they play Lady MILLIE JACKSON singing Bad Company's "Feel Like Makin' Love"! Have you ever heard that before? Could just be better than the original!

@Joe: Bizarre. Did Dr. Death release this album, or did the Morpheus Quintet just sample his spoken word into the tracks?
Matt from Springfield:
Well, if something does exist, WFMU WILL play it! Thanks for this unusual jazz/spoken word, Joe!

@J: "Cherry cola" was on the single that was the most radio played, the album had the original "Coca". I've heard both on the radio, so you can tell which version they're playing. I myself have both, being a completist.
Matt from Springfield:
The clerk also told me an interesting tidbit about her "sorid, lesbian affair with Nina Hagen" that I wasn't aware of! The two apparently produced each others music for a while...

Actually I have some LPs, and many MP3s, but few of their complete albums in any format--you may top me on that. I know one of my friends totally beats me up on the Kinks front!

It's there between "Lola versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One" and "Muswell Hillbillies", but not so known. I didn't even know about that till you mentioned it! I'll have to ask Julie if she has that...

This is a classic I first heard on my 1984 "WHFS" tape! Total re-invention, but Marianne did it well for the New Wave era.

Robertson also wrote "We Have a Dream" for the 1982 World Cup Scotland squad and played the lead in the movie Living Apart Together, directed by Charlie Gormley. In 1983 Robertson, along with co-songwriters Terry Britten and Sue Shifrin, won a Razzie Award for the Worst 'Original' Song for "Pumpin' and Blowin'" as featured in the 1982 film, The Pirate Movie."

@Joe: Puh-leeze! I rank Mike + the Mechanics below Squeeze and Ace for bands Paul Carrack has sung for. (And Roxy Music, according to Wiki? Did he sing after Bryan F. left or something? Must check out...)
Julie:

So would Kenny G's visual be an ice pick through a listeners' ear? Or maybe a part blue, part pink sport coat? ;)

"In 1977 Ace disbanded, and Carrack began working as a backing musician for Frankie Miller. Subsequently, he was a member of Roxy Music, playing keyboards on their 1979 reunion album Manifesto. Carrack would also play on the next two Roxy Music albums, but as a session musician, not a band member."

Though when I was in San Fran I shopped at City Lights Books, where many of the Beat generation actually did go to in the past and did readings of their stuff!
