Days are so short now, it's dark before the Final Stretch starts. After the Daylight Savings Time is over we'll get that extra hour of gaps between songs back.

Dave , I think you've already filled your 2% R@R quota for the evening with the Wishbone Ash, or shall we expect an appearance from Ozark Mountain Daredevils later?
Avatar 10:32pm
Dave Mandl:

Evening, @ss. It's *always* possible I'll play the Ozark Mountain Daredevils. But I'll stay on the air an extra hour or two if necessary to get back under 2%.

It's a small price to pay, but so be it. Spin up the OMD!

Can you imagine the disappointment if you played OMD instead of OMD? Like eating an orange after brushing your teeth.

The only known Quadfecta is Family of God, which Scott Williams confirms the station owns a copy of.

Just noticed the Swan Song label, your're physic powers are nothing to scoff at there Dave

@Whooda: Thanks. I played that track because the piano flowed so nicely from the M. Crispell piece. But I was talking about the Swan Song label on the show last week, so...

DM is dragging me back to Bad Company/Swan Song -- I recently rediscovered a related supergroup: The Firm. Fantastic fretless work by Tony Franklin.

I couldn't help notice both Plant and Page went with fretless players after Zep ended.

@joseph: I know he's no longer with us, though I didn't know the exact year. Did I imply that he's still alive? I didn't mean to.

Thanks for the try, Dave. I don't know why I like Montrose but not Bad Company -- certainly not out of any great love of Sammy Hagar.
Avatar 11:02pm
Dave Mandl:

Was Sammy Hagar in Montrose? And why didn't I know that?

There's actually so much to be interested in with this Roland Haynes track that I'm having trouble writing.

Return to Forever was a nice catch, reminded me of Herbie Hancock.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:07pm

Anyway, Dave, Sammy walked out after the tour supporting the second album. He was replaced by Bob James, who did an outstanding job if you ask me.
Avatar 11:09pm
Dave Mandl:

@pss: But was Hagar in the original Montrose? I have no recollection of that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:10pm

I'm sure a lot of people don't realize that Ted Nugent was not the lead vocalist in Ted Nugent's band.

Yeah, Sammy was the original.

Oklahoma City Civic Center in the early 70's got to see Ted Nugent pull his stchik of screaming until he passed out on stage, always a show stopper (literally)

I did see Hagar once in the '70s, at a Day On The Green at the Oakland Colosseum. I think I was there to see Blue Oyster Cult, though.

tim osman:

@PSS A disreputable hobby of mine in the 70's was to sneak into concerts. I was unsuccessful once trying to get into a Blue Oyster Cult show, while I was stranded outside I heard the most incredible singer doing the warm-up band. This guy's voice literally shook the building. Later I discovered it was Bob Segar.

Bob Seger did have that super power, back then. Probably not so much, these days.

Hi Dave. Quick flashback. In Wikipedia's Brassens article one can read: "His lyrics are difficult to translate, though attempts have been made" ! A successful attempt is to be found by searching "La complainte des filles de joie Emily Loizeau French and English subtitles" within youtube. A beautiful cover, sang twice as slow as the original.
Avatar 11:34pm
Dave Mandl:

@Thierry: You know, there's a guy, whose name I unfortunately can't recall right now, who translated a bunch of Brassen's songs into English, and performs them live. I saw him a few years ago.
Avatar 11:35pm

I mean same melodies, but in English.

I should just make a CD of this stuff -- the original butt rock bands -- throw in some Climax Blues Band, some boogie...
Avatar 11:36pm
Droll:

Jezzz, I go to make some dinner, and I was listening to violin and piano, but I come back and the comments are talking about classic rock.

We are getting a full dose of Fusion (capital F) on this show! Fusion (capital F) combines jazz and rock, so Fusion (capital F) still counts as 1% Rock-n-Roll, right?

Great dramatic pause there! It's just like the 3-hour show!

@Dave: I would love to hear this singer. Maybe you can research him for next week's program. :-)

Hey, before the show ends, I'd like to mention, since I haven't seen it on the FMU front page, that the station Android 2.0 app is now available from the Amazon app store. This is very good news for Kindle Fire users who cannot download apps from Google Play. It works great.

Before the show ends let me reiterate how 2-hour shows are the worst of both worlds. Do I complain to Ken or BT?

But Ken is the program director, so he's the man to complain to.

I think you will often find yourself complaining to the DJ; some have found 2 hours easier, in the long run.

Flattery will get me nowhere? Then Ken's gonna get a big 'ol nastygram!
