Analogman Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I was listening with my eyes closed. Which made me notice how the one young lady was saying the word "day". I am thinking Chicago born. Oh - if you really want to play a song most people have never heard - check out Wrong Side of The River (Mott The Hoople). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted October 31, 2016 Author Share Posted October 31, 2016 I was listening with my eyes closed. Which made me notice how the one young lady was saying the word "day". I am thinking Chicago born. Oh - if you really want to play a song most people have never heard - check out Wrong Side of The River (Mott The Hoople).Which song was that? It is really hard to listen to the actual music when you are doing radio, I have to cue records, log them, think of things to say, and not panic when equipment doesn't work as planned. Just curious. Can look for the Mott Song sometime. This week is too full. LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
