Shawn-O

Some Michael Jackson, when he was a little less off the wall.

Heatwave takes us for a ride on the Groove Line

Peaked at #13 on Billboard Top 40 on 3/4/72. They wouldn't chart again for eleven years, hitting #1 with "Owner of a Lonely Heart". Yes, I'm cheating with the Billboard book.

Weezer has another hit on their hands with this one, I think. Catchy as usual.

This one put Blondie on the map: X Offender http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-Offender

Early '81, but too smooth not to share. More Gino Vannelli

I hijacked it to bring it back from the dead!

Time for another one hit wonder. Silver - Wam Bam Shang-A-Lang Bonus points for anyone that remembers that one. I didn't until subscribing to XM.

Gordon Lightfoot tells us, in the way only he can, about the legend of the big lake they call Gitchigumi. What an amazing song.

Instant Funk takes us back to the disco/roller-rink days. We were long overdue for some Soul Train footage anyway.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ regarding: 1. all underclassmen have to stay 2. holy cross jerseys 3. the importance of the WCHA F5 3rd place game 4. the firings of assistants from other programs 5. any other ideas I haven't come up with

Our German Shepherd passed away when I was twelve. Maybe he found that island. Henry Gross

Dr. John and guest!

What a lost gem. Love the old AM radio song intro, too.

Time to get round two stoked up, thanks to everyone for keepin' the thread going while I was out. Sticking with the 70's theme, here's a shout out to our neighbors to the north. This one put April Wine on the map Stateside around 1972....footage from Gimli, early 90's. Enjoy.

This song peaked at #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1979. Hard to believe these guys have been at it for almost 30 years...where does the time go?

Let's make it a double: Come and Get Your Love Witch Queen of New Orleans

This one from Quincy Jones takes me back to my grandparents' living room... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WqazleR3FE

This is all great stuff. Up next: The Motor City Madman Thanks, uncles....for having great taste in music!

Welcome to the rotation! Dagies is up, unless someone else would like to play?

Outstanding, what a great storyteller. And now....for something completely different... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgxLb3qjWvU

This one was a no-brainer. One of the best songs of all time. Seven out of ten high school band directors agree! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EBMo8xHGNs

I drove 14 hours through a snowstorm to Denver, didn't get a ticket, we watched 'em get their asses handed to 'em 6-1 in a bar, and still managed to have a blast!

Gino Vanelli I really need to get to one of these jazz festivals.....

Welcome to the game! This was a close one, with Earth, Wind, & Fire edging ELO.
