But I'll second your Liquid Gold anyway! ;o)

You did forget something by
Genre Cash
but.
Maybe
Hurt?
Haven't heard that one in a while............. ;;oo))

Ach well.
Tried and tested.
Billy Joel Piano Man
and

from Sesame Street........

And Glen miller on the blog has requested this... It's the pet shop boys and being boring.

I'll bet Bryan can't wait :-)

Complete random connection Mary-doll but the Count doing "Born To Count" is just so funny, complete with Clarence style sax solo.

Oh and Cake Boss made a great Sesame St......oh where is that second 2 litre bottle of cider...

#1

A tremendous and unusually long list, faither.


Singing The Blues - Eric Clapton

it's hard not to get the impression our hero and his team don't much care for the blues, but this is quite poppy blues, therefore radio friendly and easy on the ear - so it would be good to hear any blues... we have to get our hero started somewhere...

#10 nothing random about it, norrie. Good one! I like The Count - shame we won't get it played, though.

Am finding some of these themes a bit more "challenging" than usual.

I'm up for creepy songs. Anything from Neil Sedaka's Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen to Every Breath You Take.
Won't hold my breath. ;o)

Kwela is a kind of Malawi/South African happy skiffle based music - this is great stuff - would be great to hear

I'll be chomping in [Personal details removed by Moderator] tomorrow night but should hear most of the show before I go join our friends from the city.... visitors from London are always taken by [Personal details removed by Moderator] particularly. Should be a good night...

All Mod Cons! Perfect Madmac.....

oh and..

Heart Of The Country - Paul McCartney

'Kindly Keep It Country' - Vince Gill
'Boanaza Ska' - Carlos Malcolm + his Afro Jamaican Rhythms
'Independant Anniversary Ska' - The Skatalites

I loved tonights show, I don't get to tune in very often, usually thursday when picking my daughter up from music lessons. It made me think though, do you remember the funny news item on the old Nationwide news programme about Police and So Lonely? Somebody thought it was Sue Lawley who was a presenter on the show. can't hear it without laughing. so how about what I thought the words were. you could have "so lonely" for a start, one of your listeners said they used to think Doris Day was singing " Black Hills of Duntocher" and my daughter thought one of the songs she heard on the show was "skoosh skoosh shine shine", it was hush hush something but can't remember. anyway would make for a funny one I think. Keep it up, will try to think of some more.

Or is it a case of she will start getting ready tonight and when she's finished you'll go out :-)

Like an Old-fashioned Waltz - Sandy Denny

Boogie Woogie Stomp - Albert Ammons

Rhythm Guitar - Jill Johnson

#40 No, after you, Sir!

Anyway, I haven't had a track played in ages so he's hardly likely to give me the Smithszzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....

#38/44

henri doesn't get it: this happened last week too.

what is this moderator on - it's a list of songs: but I guess it could be one of two things?

...that I listed a particular song title or the fact that (on a programme dedicated to knowing what it's audience is eating) I named the restaurant I'll be having diner in tonight.

Let's try and find out:

The song title is Sex and Drugs and Roack and Roll

and tonight I'll be having dinner in 'The Chip'

#51 - Tonight I'll be having chips for dinner!

;o)

Previously on the blog....

#46 - #54 - Thing-Fish - Patty Loveless!

Welcome To The Cabaret - Christy Moore

Old Time Rock & Roll - Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band

A few suggestions for tonight.

Janis Joplin...."Little Girl Blue"
Boxtops........."Soul Deep"
Righteous Brothers..."Soul and Inspiration"
Astrid Gilberto....."One Note Samba"
Tramps......."Disco Inferno"
Buffy Sainte Marie..."I'm Gonna be a Country Girl Again".All great but it would be a rare moment to hear Joplin at her best on "Little Girl Blue",Cheers Willie Bartke

#44 who's in the lead for moderated posts these days?

Previously on the Blog....

Adam - Glen Miller gets your (slightly soiled) mankini and I have to settle for a scabby old cardigan?

Not Fair - Lily Allen

;o)

Tonight *has* to be the night for the dissection of what makes a *great* country song:

* Dave Allen Coe - You Never Called Me By My Name
* The Humpff Family - Love Death Divorce Prison Alcohol Rivers and Trains

Failing that, I'm going to answer DC's challenge #37 and plump for
* Spinal Tap - Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight
but only if you turn it up to 11.

#57 - He didnt get the (slightly soiled) mankini! Nobody won it.

And I dont think the cardy will be scabby. I'm sure Mrs C will have it mothballed, wrapped in broon paper and in the wardobe's bottom drawer.

#60 - Unless DC is using it to mop up bilge water.

;o)

#53 Nevererdova!

Albert Hammond - Free Electric Band. Although I seem to remember he played acoustic guitar.

'White Punks on Dope' ... The Tubes
'The Golden Age of Rock 'n Roll' ... Mott
'Scottish and Proud' ... The Real McKenzies
'Cabaret' ... Ute Lempe

'Soul Shoes' or 'It don't mean a thing if it aint got that swing' - Graham Parker

End rave. Over.

#53 Just checked her out on Wiki. Country and Western explains why I’ve never heard of her. I once visited Nashville looking forward to hearing the real C&W and not the rubbish we listen to over here. Imagine my disappointment when I discovered it’s the same rubbish!

For tonight, though not strictly singers: ~

REVISED MUSIC FOR GUITAR AND LOW-BUDGET ORCHESTRA from STUDIO TAN by FRANK ZAPPA

STAINES MORRIS from MORRIS ON by ASHLEY HUTCHINGS

Two dead certs for tonight I reckon – Bryan will not be able to resist a bit of Morris music. I can see him now, prancing around the studio with a couple of hankies.

#67 - Sounds like a job for

;o)

David Essex Rock On dire lyrics

#67 not a pretty sight

Scottish Country Dance Music

Secondary Waltz - Mark Knopfler

#58

Spelling & title correction:
* Dave Allan Coe - You Never Even Called Me By My Name

#61 I wouldn't want to contaminate my bilges

DC

#51 it's a ubiquitous life Henri

Other chips in other lanes in other cities are available

You mean there's an alternative in ubiquity?

Ah! I've been reinstated minus the source of toight's culinary delight - so, now we know - sex and drugs and rock n roll is okay but restaurants ain't. Wonder about pubs? For the next social gathering, Paulo, you'll need to give co-ordinates.

Anyway - my list is reinstated which will save me having to resubmit it.

Yipee! After a stressful afternoon worrying about moderation, I think we should be treated to Kwela - Jack Bruce

regardez youse

henri

Henri, let me guess what personal details were removed by the moderator. Was it [a 1920’s striped bathing costume and flippers] and [surprise]?

#77

Perhaps these details were removed for your own safety. In case you are set upon by hordes of fans and admirers who want to ....touch your clothes.

Hey Henri

Remember the other week when you were comparing Tiger Feet and Lust for Life?

(you missed the 3rd element of the nexus: I Feel Free)

#79

They will be after his cake

Adam and the ants is rapidly becoming a blog favourite. That's Adam scotch and Norrie all got it on in recent themes.


As for antmusic as a genre.... Well it has been championed by Adam and the ants and em ........

give me a few weeks. I'm sure it'll come to me .

#81

The famous Hannah-Banana Cake?

#82 and adam ant. And maybe bow wow wow.

#41 Ha Ha Paolo, and i know exactly what you're sayin here, but in this case it's two separate offers :-)

#60

If we're gonna give Glen a cartoon character it should reflect his status as our elder statesman, aka 'Faither of the Blog'



Whit aboot





P.S. No, I'm not trying to win your (slightly soiled) mankini.

>8-D

#85 is Paul double-dating?

Widowed, separated, divorced. Paul thinks he's allowed one from each category.

Off to see the Blues Band at a floating venue - dinner by two obese women first.
