Be shaken. Be stirred. A whimsical wham-bam of exotic enchantments, sleazy oddities, pop fancies, and swingin’ slingers broadcast from Ridgewood, NYC’s very own Shangri-Lounge. Best served chilled, garnished with signature swizzle schtick.

I've played the Claudine Longet version of this song a couple times on this show, figured the original of the song deserved a spin, finally.

Frankie Goes to Hollywood doing "San Jose"? Well, that's pretty random.

Kinda like peaking in high school? lol
Avatar 6:41pm

Yep, this show settled right into a dead end job at their dad's shop, and married their high school sweetheart.

Krys O:

Jeremy Spencer? Eek!
Avatar 6:42pm
shangri-lounge:

Oh no, I just googled him - didn't know he was gross!
  6:43pm
Krys O:

He was an integral part of the original Fleetwood Mac, but the cult thing was cringe.
Avatar 6:45pm
shangri-lounge:

Yeah, that's a mega yikes!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:47pm
coelacanth∅:

he was never an important part of the mac, in my opinion. limited musician and throwaway material.
...and a dick.
Avatar 6:47pm
HyperDose:

Kool-Aid is kinda good though. I think I'd be tempted to drink it! 🙊
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:48pm
coelacanth∅:

his 50's shtick, as well as his Elmore James shtick, was embarrassingly bad; and he didn't want to participate in the other members' material.

I mean I like the Gilmour, Mason, Wright (RIP) live version of Floyd better. But the curmudgeonly "the old stuff is mine, bah humbug!" is kinda lame.

That Ideal track was so cute!

Right?! I love it, Kitchy Mama! That was one of those I was super pleased to stumble upon, and got the 7" right away!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:07pm
coelacanth∅:

wow (just reading up on ol' jerms) i didn't know about the child abuse connection. i thought he was a dick anyway. now he's a double-dick.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:10pm

Now he deserves to be dickless!

probably too late for that to matter much.

I believe it's a "love gun," Coel.
Avatar 7:17pm
shangri-lounge:

Don't forget yer fez, Austin!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:18pm

I don't have one, yet. I should probably get a fez and a cigarette holder and an old Underwood typewriter, while I'm at it.

Is this the Grace Jones equivalent of Neil Young's Trans album?
Avatar 7:23pm

I'll keep an open mind, Hyper-D, haha

Open Minded Music to keep your mind OPEN.

I bought this album and when this song came on, it was one of those: hey-someone-sampled-this! moments.

in the days before all sample sources were revealed on the intar-webs, those were cool moments when that happened.
