THURSDAY

• 
  
  Looked down the bar,
  
  I say to my bartender,
  
  I say "Look man,
  
  Come down here!"
  
  
  He got down there,
  
  "So what you want this time?"
  
  
  I said "Look man,
  
  What time is it?"
  
  He said "The clock on the wall say 3 o'clock.
  
  Last call for alcohol! So what you need?"
  
  

THURSDAY


I'll Meet You at Midnight - Smokie



Surely we set it for 3 p.m.

Surely we said it was March the 10th.
Ìý

Equator - Sparks




:o)

Rialto - "Monday Morning 5:19"

Grant Lee Buffalo - "The Shining Hour", whenever that is.

The Cure - "10.15 Saturday Night"

Ìý
Adam,

Gilbert O'Sullivan is playing at GRCH on Sunday. Thing-Fish is desperately trying to unload his Jethro Tull tickets for the same evening.

I'll allow him to buy me a J.D. at the interval. That'll console him. (No pun intended).

- the Quireboys

In no order of preference ***:

(5. Lyle Lovett - Christmas Morning excluded on the fact Mrs Wallace think he too ugly)

*** This one = > 4. The Cowboy Junkies - Sun Comes Up, It's Tuesday Morning

3. Because The Night - 10,000 Maniacs

2. Looking For The Heart of Saturday Night - Shawn Colvin

1. Sparks - Good Morning

Ìý
Norrie,

I'm pretty sure Bryan wants specific times; e.g. Midnight - High Noon - Four in the Morning

(see above).

Oh curses just remembered a great Martyn Joseph track......

Oh right strike all those suggestions. I claim BCC red card excemption......

Ìý
Adam,

I'm taking the night off on Friday, so I'll have 24 requests next week instead of the approved 20.

Ìý
Does count?

4. The Jam - Who Is The 5 O'clock Hero?

3. Iggy Pop - Sister Midnight

2. Gary U.S Bonds - Quarter To Three

1. Jayhawks - Pouring Rain At Dawn

4 Tops
Quarter To Three ~ Gary U.S. Bonds
9PM (Till I Come) ~ ATB
In The Midnight Hour ~ Wilson Pickett
4 In The Morning Ìý~ Gwen Stefani

Sometime Around Midnight - Airborne Toxic Event

4 Tops

Dusk Till Dawn - Ladyhawke comes from an album our Katie bought for me a while back, which has really growm on me. Interesting.

Midnight Rider - Gregg Allman

this is a deep fried southern soul version of the Allman Brothers classic - but very different, truly beautiful and something I'd love the GIO audience to hear.From the album '20th Century masters'.

Six O'Clock - Ringo Starr

After the Beatles split Ringo was always going to struggle so the others wrote stuff for his first album and performed on it, thus continuing a Beatles tradition of having one 'Ringo' nuumber on each album. This is very obviously Paul's song on which Linda and Paul do backing vocals with Macca doing an improvised 'bonkers' ending, well worth hearing in it's own right. Delightful,pro - feminist, anthemic chorus of the kind he can't seem to write these days. Well worth hearing.

25 or 6 to Four - Chicago

From the period before they became obsessed with slushy love songs, comes this upbeat jazz rock classic : good show opener, imho.

There, done it, and it took me a while, but I'd be proud to hear any of these on GIO - particularly the Gregg Allman 'Midnight Rider' which I find revelatory. Well done Adam, sparked an otherwisde waning interest - decent of you to stick up for me. Appreciated.

And now, the boudoir beckons (but I'd better do the dishes first...)

regardez youse

henri

Here we are
Out of cigarettes
Holding hands and yawning
Look how late it gets
Two sleepy people by dawn's early light
And too much in love to say goodnight

'Two Sleepy People' - Hoagy Carmichael's version is sweet but Fats Waller's version is good too.

Stealth-posting my second request...

I still love 'Midnight At The Oasis' but it HAS to be sung by Maria Muldaur...not heard another version that comes close.

Radar Love - Golden Earring (It's half past ten an' I'm shifting gears)

Streets of London - Ralph McTell (in the all night cafe at a quarter past eleven)

Sylvia's Mother - Dr Hook etc (She's catchin the nine o clock train)

Picasso's last words - Wings (it's three o clock in the mornin')

And just to annoy our far south-west correspondent.....

Life's been good to me - Joe Walsh (I go to parties, sometimes until four)


DC

#19 Agreed - the Brand New Heavies is the 2nd best version of Midnight At The Oasis - glad you shouted for it, I was in a quandry about not including it. Daft and delightful, great lyric, beautifully played.Only Maria will do.

regardez vous

henri

would be a treat to hear ..........

'Sunset' by Stevie Wonder

.......

I will second Scotch. Theres not enough Smokie on Gio.
And Gilbert ay the GRCH? Hmmmm!

Couldnt contribute yesterday as I couldnt meet the new criteria and didnt want to offend any of my fave albums by putting them to the back of the box.

I now have my bingo card of times. I will mark them off as everyone else suggests them and come back when theres just four left.

By the way



That was a rubbish version of Thunder Road ....

Madmac we have a joint suggestion! Therefore between us we have another. I suggest:

The Who - 5:15

What do you think?

#2

Aye but only two (maybe three) are on theme - see #9

#6

There's a guy I know over here who is a huge Gilbert fan. Wants to bring him over, he thinks he can fill a hall.

Hello again Bryan, Blogotariat, etc...

'Call it a loan' by Jackson BROWNE

In the morning when I closed my eyes
You were sleeping in paradise
And while the room was growing light (...) In the evening when you see my eyes
Looking back at you, no disguise (...)
Album: 'Hold Out'

Friendly greetings from Chris.

#29

It's always five o'clock somewhere!


;o)

* Madness - 4am
* The Vogues - Five O'Clock World
* Bragg - Debris (Sunday Morning... Faces version also OK)
* Tull - Fire at Midnight
* Patsy Cline - Walkin' After Midnight
* Marillion - Heart of Lothian (It's 6 O'Clock in the towerblocks)
* Richard Thompson - At the Dimming of the Day
* The Beatles - She's Leaving ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ

While this may not be quite what was intended, it's very, very specific about the time:
* Johnny Cash - 25 minutes to go

However, the track that really goes big on clock times is
* ABBA - The Day Before You Came

(*bah* no credit for Paul Simon last night...)

#33 actually it's not...

THURSDAY


A wee gem. Lots of singers have covered it, but this is my favourite.

Play it for oor Julie!

#36. Shucks...thanks SG.

Charlotte Gainsbourg - "5:55"

"A cinq heures cinquante-cinq"

#34 Disappointed Capt. that you didn't go for the cover version with your last shout... it's lost on quite a few. ;-)

No call for Maiden's 5 Minutes To Midnight from anybody on the blog?

AfR, re the BCC I reckon it should also include some guidance with regard to defamatory remarks about others and their preferred means of contributing to the show... I.E. Darkside, Twit'ers etc.

Thoughts?

#25 Ma_Radio_Form !

For #25 read #27 previous blog thread

#41
A couple of minutes wasn't it?

#42
They should be more defamatory?

#43
My first ever anagram!!


Paulo, what about digging out some of your quiz questions?
eg -

What time does it start raining men?
What time do the Abba girls want a man?
What times do Dolly and Sheena share?

These are not requests btw........well, maybe the Sheena one.

Well, I've bought my Marc Almond tickets for the ABC in September. I was going to his last gig in Glasgow but he had a motorcycle accident and it had to be cancelled.

Not quite sure what to expect, but I'm sure it will be entertaining.

regardez youse

henri

Henri, saw Soft Cell touring "Art Of falling apart"...circa 82/83 Tiffanys, Sauchiehall St & despite the technical limitations for Synth Bands Touring back then Almond was excellent live.

AfR, That's not nice!

#45 Can tell I ain't a fan ;-)

For consideration as I don't think this young lady will have been played on GIO before;

Breathe (2 A.M.) / Anna Nalick
