I also caught WWL out of NO after Hurricane Katrina. It was after 4am, and they were still on the air. They were taking calls from whomever was out there, discussing what that person was seeing or experiencing, and answering questions as to what to do and where to go for assistance. It was reminisce...

People complain about posts not being on topic, yet in the past two weeks in this thread, there’s been no new thoughts on the subject. Just more of the arguments. To attempt a reversal of that trend - viewers will usually complain when they lose the ability to watch what they want to: as the Queen s...

Continual dialogue that isn’t about the topic as much as about how some people vehemently disagree with another person. For the record, the Hotrod Harris comment was sarcastic, but based upon the topic at hand. After that, it’s just becoming an uninteresting bunch of noise. Just my opinion. I hope t...

The sound of Ouellette Ave. It’s good to see that’s up there.

I forget who's playing what, but some of the earlier Top does sneak out on occasion. Sirius/XM has them show up on the Classic Vinyl and Classic Rewind channels, and on Deep Tracks occasionally. I recall when Eliminator came out that our college station didn't jump on the hits, but gravitated to dee...

"Carry On Wayward Son" . I saw Kansas in concert years ago, and I swear they played other songs I knew as well. It couldn't have been just that one song in different tempos. Most ZZ Top songs played from "Eliminator". I love the band and have their albums even up to the present day ("I Gotsta Get Pa...

"Devil's Diary" - The Caufields "It's a Shame About Ray" - The Lemonheads "Surfin' On Jupiter" - Psychefunkapus "Another Chance" - The Georgia Satellites "Mariposa" - Seed (an epic song that is hard to find https://youtu.be/l6M15Hf994Y) "Monopoly On Sorrow" and "I'll Hate You Better" - Suicidal Tend...

"Megaforce" - yeah, I remember it coming out and not getting enough notice. "Autobahn" - way ahead of its' time, and it's amazing that it was a hit single in edited form. There's a couple week period around '74 or '75 when the Billboard Top 40 featured such a variety that I was blown away by the rea...

"Muscle Of Love" - Alice Cooper (just gave this whole album a relisten, and it's better than I remembered) That one fights with "Love it to Death" as my favorite ACG album (From the Inside takes the #1 spot overall). Big Apple Dreamin', Never Been Sold Before, the title cut, Working Up a Sweat...gr...

Did not know that "Contact" sampled this song, thanks for that bit of trivia! You're welcome. Music discovery is fun for me, so I'm glad to share. Mike, the Spotify Playlist is looking good. My liked songs playlist on there has over 3,600 songs, so It's well-stocked. I could do a thread on pop song...

I had thought of "Tightrope" earlier today...good call! I also like Doucette's song - how about Kim Mitchell's "Lager And Ale", the underplayed "Fits Ya Good" by Bryan Adams, mentioned in the WLLZ thread, "All Over Town" by April Wine, and "Feel It Again" by Honeymoon Suite? I used to catch Good Roc...

Powerline's relative worth is what it is, however most stations would run it in the off hours so that it wouldn't get caught in the regular programming stream. I remember hearing it (on whichever Detroit station) while driving to my job at a different station. It was o.k., and I didn't mind having i...

Yeah, "Like It Or Not" was one that disappeared quickly, but it's still a great song. I played "You Might Recall" on a station once (off playlist) and although some of the staff gave it a thumbs up, the CD started skipping, so my foray beyond Selector Land was cut short. How about something from the...

The same way "Powerline" fit onto the stations it used to run on (it may still, for all I know) - it doesn't. It just runs and people stay tuned or not.

(Great choices btw, Windsor!) "Lady On The Rock" - Joe Vitale "Voices" - Russ Ballard "Catch Me Now I'm Falling", "Low Budget", "Attitude" and "A Gallon Of Gas" , all by The Kinks "You Might Recall" - Genesis "Swept Away" - Sammy Hagar "Don't Turn Your Back" - Blue Oyster Cult (I don't understand wh...
