R-r-r-r-r-r-OCK!!!

3:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...my very favorite imaginary playlist!...

3:54pm gumshoe bob:

"Little Bit o'Soul" - NOT the Music Explosion - clever mr deejay. Who killed Virginia Woolf? Searching "who killed Brian Jones" per Kelly's ad lib, a builder-did-it theory turns up with linked woman terribly assaulted 3 weeks later . . . . "Pack of lies -investigators put words in my mouth" . . . . Nice hearing "Zabadak"

4:00pm pardon me:

Twas "A Little Bit of SOAP," the Jarmels

4:02pm Al:

The Trade Winds. Get their names. MY people.

It's here boss. It's here. Pass the fries.

4:18pm Al:

@Tomophobic Tom: Does that mean you're afraid of people named Tom?

4:20pm Carmichael:

You Stole My Love! I love this song. Have it on a comp called The Roots of Rock.

4:20pm Al:

Greatest name for a record label: Sex with Lurch

4:21pm Al:

Shindig was on ABC. Hullabaloo was on NBC.

4:24pm Carmichael:

How 'bout Where the Action Is? CBS?

4:28pm bobbette bob:

"Action" was definitely ABC

4:37pm Al:

Shindig was on weeknights (I think Wed.), and Action was on Saturdays. Shindig was replaced by Batman.

4:49pm "boom boom" bob:

I don't remember the others, but "Where the Action Is" was on 4:30 weekday afternoons. Vogues -"5 o'clock World" episode is at archive.org

4:50pm Al:

@bbb: My memory fades. Action was after-school TV.

5:05pm mediaseth:

I'm listing from Lynn Massachusetts right now (transplanted from NJ years ago) and you just played a song by a Lynn band or artist and I missed the name. This is killing me! Who was it? Thanks!

@mediaseth Richie's Rengades - "Don't Cry" 1966

6:57pm bat bob:

But I remember watching Batman from its premiere; yet not the Batgirl third season? . . . . "The Second Hundred Years"! - wow, gotta revisit that

7:04pm mediaseth:

@boo-hoo bob: Thank you!

1:30am ChrisInLA:

Bill, great, great show. Positively 'Reiken-esque.' I've listened to it 4 or 5 times this week and started looking for almost all the songs. Thanks man!

9:52am anonymous dj:

The entire organization and extended staff behind the monument to arrested adolescence sometimes referred to as "The Teenage Wasteland" are humbled by all of your appreciation.
