"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot."

Hey J.A. ,,,,,,,,your music selection convinces me 100% that commercial radio sucks,,,,,,,,dave from Kansass
  Wed. 5/14/08 8:36pm mike in sf:

That early 10cc stuff still sounds great! I think I had it all on 8-track, which would explain why I don't have any now....
  Wed. 5/14/08 9:12pm Bad Ronald:

I like Joe Belock a lot too.
  Wed. 5/14/08 9:37pm Mike B.:

I heard "I Must Be In a Good Place Now" 1st time a month ago. It was done by Bobby Charles. Really amazing tune for spring time. Cheers!
  Wed. 5/14/08 10:33pm Don B.:

Nice and creepy !!! I wonder what that recording session was like?
  Wed. 5/14/08 10:34pm Droll:

Tune in late and miss 10 c.c... Damn! I swear I'll never walk away from the radio again! Those repackaged greatest hists CDs tell the AM Gold part of the story, but the first 3 or 4 albums hold up incredibly well as the high water mark for AOR. Enjoying the show!
