@KenFromHydePark: In high school in the 1980s I used to work at 40 Worth Street. Crappy clerk job but it was a good summer job. Good think I donā€™t work there any more because being a clerk for that long who got crushed by a crane would be one sad epitaph.

That's funnyā€”first thing I thought when I heard "records about records" was "McGasko".

I just CAN'T belueve that Bleecker Bob's is gone. It's maybe the one single long-standing festure of the Manhattan landscape that is gone, that I CAN'T believe is gone. Every time someone mentions that it's gone, I have this spasm of anger/ denial/grief...

Yup @Adrian, that's an original I just played. I found it years ago when I was living in London in 1997.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 2/5/16 3:47pm Stevel:

Dale Bozzio had a Lauper-ish voice and could pop out super high notes that I found just swell. Walking in LA was their hit. Terry Bozzio, her husband, was the drummer, also played drums for Zappa on Sheik Yerbouti and Joe's Garage. Sharp new-wave pop.

...& I suppose the male DJs have to be models too - oh brother...I'm sure he's a stunner himself, right??...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 2/5/16 5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...what if she's a plain DJ - but she has physically perfect male go-go dancers??...

Yeah these sexist and racists are everywhere. What to do? Expose and ostracize them whenever and where ever possible. Attack them at every turn.

Sheilab, got here just in time to hear your excellent comments on sexism in the world. My take is as follows: there is a Finite amount of psychic space for the Human Attitude. By putting the Sheilab Attitude out there, you have reduced the available space for Asshole-ism to survive. Well done and bless you. And nice Song of the Week too!

Indeed! This and "Point of No Return" were solid back in the day and still are.

Haven't heard this Expose in years. Not bad at all, it's aged pretty well.

I want an outfit like the Exposee lady on the right!

That "oo LA LA" is beatle-esque
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 2/5/16 5:30pm Carmichael:

It reminded me of Cockney Rebel's "Make Me Smile". Produced by Alan Parsons, who engineered on the Beatles last 2 albums. Weird ...
Avatar Fri. 2/5/16 5:32pm statoj:

Carmichael, I did not know that! Music has DNA.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/5/16 5:33pm djsheilab:

@Carmichael. Alan Parsons is my hero. I've never heard of Cockney Rebel.

M83 album cover shows 50s, 60s and 80s. No 70s? Guess they did not like disco.
  Fri. 2/5/16 5:35pm Adrian in London:

Ooh, Sheila, you must hear Come Up and See Me (Make Me Smile) and Sebastian.

Fair if fair!

INVINCIBLE!!!

Cool! We're seeing Villagers next Friday so we won't miss you live.

The cognoscenti have known for years that "The Legend of Billie Jean", while not exactly brilliant, is underrated and def worth a view. (whoever the hell those "cognoscenti" are...)
  Fri. 2/5/16 5:43pm P-90:

This Benatar track is reminding me how they liked to record drums in the 80s.

obv meant to say fair IS fair. duh.

the Swans were great at Primavera
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 2/5/16 5:54pm Carmichael:

@Sheila: Steve Harley was Cockney Rebel's genius leader. If you heard the song, you'd recognize it (especially the "ooh-la-las"). debuted at #1, as did Parson's next effort, Pilot's "Magic".
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 2/5/16 5:56pm Swan_Gone:

Thanks fer gettin' me through another work day!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 2/5/16 5:56pm listener james from westwood:

Always a blast! Thanks, Sheila!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 2/5/16 5:57pm Carmichael:

And Harley returned the favor by singin on I Robot ("The Voice").

Oh, and Lesley Duncan sang on Parson's Eve. What a tangled web ...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Fri. 2/5/16 5:58pm The Contessa:

Thanks!
