Take Me Back Tuesday - 11/21/06

This week's Take Me Back Tuesday is all about radio.

Turn on the radio.

I'm listening to 96.1 KZEL, the local Classic Rock station.

What are the first three songs that they play?

I'll list the first three songs that I recognize.

"Smooth" by Carlos Santana and Rob Thomas
"Tripping Billies" by Dave Matthews Band
"Veronica" by Elvis Costello

Name the artists.

Carlos Santana, Dave Matthews Band, and Elvis Costello

Name three albums by one or all of the artists.

"Supernatural" by Carlos Santana
"Under The Table and Dreaming" by Dave Matthews Band
"This Year's Model" by Elvis Costello

It's funny how, out of the three recognizable songs I heard, only one could be considered "classic rock." I suppose the station is changing its playlist to include newer stuff.

My Pickle station plays stuff from the 50's, 60's and part of the 70's. What they consider goodtime rock n' roll.

I'm amazed that they never played Nick Lowe. I don't expect EC, cos he's too snarky....but they play Billy Joel. Doesn't make much sense sometimes.

Happy T-day :)

KZEL does play Elvis Costello, but nine times out of ten it's "Everyday I Write The Book," which I don't like. The other day, though, they played Peace Love and Understanding. Now THAT song I DO like!
