October 5, 201114 yr I have a cover of this by The Georgia Satellites, which would have been appropriate as they're from Atlanta, but that version doesn't seem to be online anywhere.
October 6, 201114 yr I'm pretty sure Brian's got this one in his record collection...Saturday Night - Bay City RollersS-s-s-saturday niiiiiiiiight..s-s-s-saturday niiiiiiight....
October 6, 201114 yr I was trying to resist this one. It's a piece of Europop by a former Danish model that seemed unavoidable in the summer of '94. It looks like you guys in the US missed out .Saturday Night - WhigfieldAs a saving grace, this song did end the 15 week run of Wet Wet Wet's cover of The Troggs' at the #1 spot in the UK charts.
October 7, 201114 yr The Night the Lights Went out in Georgia - Reba McEntire (Vicki Lawrence originally)
October 7, 201114 yr Great instrumental track from 1961. Those of you on my side of The Pond may recognize it as . Those of you in Ireland may recognize it as the closing theme from Ray Foley's lunchtime show on TodayFM.
October 8, 201114 yr Last Night - The Traveling WilburysThe Traveling Wilburys were... George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne and Bob Dylan.
October 9, 201114 yr Brewing Up A Storm - The StunningGreat track from 1990. Probably the best known track from this Irish rock band.
October 10, 201114 yr Riders on the Storm - The DoorsThere's a killer on the road, his brain is squirmin' like a toad ...This song is so atmospheric that I can easily convince myself that it's raining outside when it's over (although as I live in Ireland, it usually is ).
October 12, 201114 yr Ghost Town - The SpecialsA 30-year-old hit from the British 2 Tone ska band. It reached #1 in the UK charts in the summer of '81.
October 12, 201114 yr I didn't get a chance to post this when we did 'last night' songs last week. From the album 'Whatever and Ever Amen', this track is about throwing a leaving party for a guy who never leaves.
October 13, 201114 yr I can't believe that we've never had any Kenny Rogers in this thread.Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town - Kenny Rogers & The First EditionThis time I was lucky, and found the too . I didn't realise that anyone had covered Dream Academy's 1985 hit. Their was filmed in and around Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire (a northern town in England). Thanks for posting the new version.
October 14, 201114 yr Cheap Trick - Take Me To The TopNot a great video, but I couldn't find one with them live on this song - too bad...it's a really good song.
October 15, 201114 yr Slightly unusual, mainly spoken track from Damon Albarn's other band. I've had this CD for several years, but until I looked up the video I never realised that the narrator was Dennis Hopper.
