Bob's quotes first. Mine in parentheses.
(I KNOW) I'M LOSING YOU-- RARE EARTH-- (Missed the first two songs. Blue-eyed soul on Motown,)
THE TEARS OF A CLOWN-- SMOKEY ROBINSON & THE MIRACLES-- (Now, here's a guy who can song and write songs.)
LOLA-- KINKS-- The single version. Tastes just like cherry cola, not Coca-Cola. By the Davies brothers, Ray and Dave. (Wait, something mighty different about this "gal."
IT DON'T MATTER TO ME-- BREAD-- "A" and "B" sides of their current single.
CALL ON ME-- BREAD-- (A lot of people think of Bread as being that schmaltzy group that brought us "Make It With You," but this shows an edgier side.)
LOOKIN' OUT MY BACK DOOR-- CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL-- It wouldn't be the late 60s early 700s without a Creedence song on your radio. From the "Cosmo's Factory" album. "Just got back from ____, locked my _____ _____, Oh Boy!" Life is Good: College and CCR>)
GO BACK-- CRABBY APPLETON-- One hit wonder by band out of Los Angeles. Included on R and R Hits Vol. 2
And speaking of his popular Rock and Roll Roots series of CDs, Vol. 11 will be released Sunday, Nov. 8th and it will be featured on the show from 7 to 10 AM. Afterwards, there will be a CD release party at a Borders store (forgot where) and then there will be a follow-up at the Mt. Prospect Borders, where Liz and I and some of our friends will attend.
Last year, Bob had the New Colony Six, Cryan' Shames, Buckinghams, Jim Peterik of the Ides of March and Doug Sahms of the Shadows of Knight playing a free two-hour show. Chicago Rock in the sixties doesn't get much better than this.
Listen to the show at www.wdrv.com.
