Where did it [JACK?BOB?SAM?] come from... Some say Canada, others say Denver, Hawaii, Tidewater, Va. Did every DJ that has ever broken format and fired for it, help create it [including mmwha]. The ones that found an audience receptive to the idea. What..., corporate said "Hey, They're on to something... Let's jump on it and kick them out of it". [$$$$]
I've been hearing that some are failing...and in various media circles are calling them a fad. What [if any] is changing with other stations in the marketplace where these stations pop-up? "Let's build it... They will listen" quoting a good friend. Why do I even care??? It's like my old CB handle "Cracker Jack" You'll never know what I'll say on the mic"[I was like that on the radio too!] They'll play Everything...! Guess I'm waiting for the surprise... It's a cracker jack radio jukebox... Pick a title, Put in a quarter... Push a button... or go back in time and put in a dime! Am I showing my age again...wrong demographic I guess. I've seen a bunch on here... Now how's this for diverse... I betcha they won't play them this way!
Jess DuBoy & Hitchhiker "If You Would Be My Girl" groovy, that's hipsville, I can dig-it! [Don't bust a gut digging], Don Reno & Red Smiley "Using my Bible for a Roadmap" [Hey that's Don's signature song... it's even on his tombstone.. I could have said Dueling Banjo's...excuse me "Feuding Banjo's" the correct title...Reno and Arthur Smith from NC wrote the damn song!] follow that up with Porter Waggoner's "Carroll County Accident" [I've met him..he's a pretty neat fella, I would say.."Hey how'd you like working with Dolly"], Joe South "Games People Play", then John Lennon's "Just Give Me Some Truth", Then Single Bullet Theory "Keep It Tight", Transvision Vamp "I Want Your Love", Deep Purple "SpaceTruckin'" [I'm sorry that's not Top40 is it], Ernest Tubb's "I'm Walking The Floor Over You", The Monkee's "Listen The Band", Canned Heat "Going Up Country", Aerosmith "Toys in the Attic", Alabama "Tennessee River", George Clinton "Bop Gun", Glen Medeiros "Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You", Frank Mills "Musicbox Dancer"...[a Bozo no, no... back to back instrumentals]
Apollo 100 "Joy" [fits right in doesn't it... Well it's that or Hot Butter's "Popcorn"...], Hilary Duff "Wake Up" [Gotta get the youngsters lol their mom & pop buy the merchandise right]. Rob Zombie "Reload" [Am I making you sick] John Denver "Sunshine On My Shoulders", Osmonds "Let Me In", Blackeyed Peas "Let's Get It Started", Sly & The Family Stone "Dance to the Music", [Bet, I lost you at Hilary Duff] Beatles "Helter Skelter" [Ok, I'm rockin' the boat too much...now I know how to make a bunch of my fellow older jocks ill...lolol]
Richard Harris "Mac Arthur's Park" [quick where's the barf-bag, I think I'm gonna be sick..uuuuuugggghhh
lolol ok, I'm sorry...that definitely brings back memories...!!!] Well, I can actually play these and make them sound great... That's the kind of show I did back in '86. Can you name combinations they wouldn't dare play...! This ought be fun [and interesting].<P ID="signature">______________
