    b side: "Sweet Bird of Youth"

    a side: "You Wear It Well"

    Janus Records J-266 1976
    Scotsman Al Stewart penned this Alan Parsons-produced classic, which made it all the way up to number 8 on the Hot 100. Definitely sounds like the mid-70s to me ear. Fun fact: Janus Records was originally extension of England's Pye Records.

    b side: "Preach and Teach"
    Imperial Records 66086 1965

    Jun Mayuzumi [29:06]

    a side: "You and the Sun"
    b side: "My Love, My Love"
    Capitol Records CP-1040 1969
    Another fine single from late 1960s Japan, the a-side in A minor for those of you playing along at home. I have it on good authority that a-side "Fushigina Taiyou" directly translates to "Strange Sun" but "You and the Sun" works fine to.

    Bongwater [35:39]

    b side: "The Porpoise Song"
    Shimmy Disc Records shimmy 7-98 1988

    b side: "Barroom Blues"
    Playboy Records P 6054 1975

    a side: "Wires"
    b side: "LSP"
    Relapse Records RR1091-1 2011
    Hot and heavy stuff from these Portland gents. As per usual with Red Fang, there's a pretty epic video to accompany this a-side. Fun fact for fans of The Decemberists: Jenny Conlee and Chris Funk also perform on this record. Oh my glob! Maybe the b-side is about Lumpy Space Princess?

    RCA Victor 447-0924 1971
    The a-side of this reissue single often seems way longer than it's 3 minutes and 16 seconds it claims on the label. Time surely is relative. Thankfully the flipside is a super catchy antidote.

    King Curtis and the Noble Knights [31:57]

    a side: "Wobble Twist"
    b side: "Twistin' with the King"
    Enjoy Records EJ-4 1962
    If there's twising involved, it must be the early 60s.

    Epic Records 34 68743 1988

    a side: "The Tra-La-La Song/That's the Pretty Part of You"
    b side: "It's a Good Day for a Parade/The Very First Kid on My Block"
    Hannah-Barbera Records 34578 1969
    Track 1, Side 1 is indeed that theme song to the soundtrack of my brain. That second track on the a-side is... seemingly nice but also kinda backhanded? Or is it just me? Oddly, this single only just cracked the Hot 100.

    The Cuff Links [09:04]

    a side: "Tracy"
    b side: "Where Did You Go?"
    Decca Records 32533 1969
    Whaddya know, more bubblegum this time from Staten Island! Featuring Ron Dante, who some may also recognize as the lead singer of The Archies. Peaked at number 9 on the Hot 100.

    The Jimmy Castor Bunch [14:13]

    a side: "Troglodyte (Cave Man)"
    b side: "I Promise to Remember"
    RCA Records 48-1029 1972
    Ah yes, comedy funk. It funked itself all the way up to #6 on the Hot 100, and number 4 on the R&B charts. And the b-side, a funky rendition of a song Jimmy Castor co-wrote for Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers.

    Ronnie Spector [20:26]

    a side: "Try Some, Buy Some"
    b side: "Tandoori Chicken"
    Apple Records 1832 1971
    Ok, I'll admit it. I got this for the b-side. You know I love a good food-related song. The a-side was a difficult attempt at a come back, written by George Harrison and co-produced by the Mono Man himself, Phil Spector.

    The Sundowners [28:19]

    a side: "Turkey Vulture/Tonight Will Be Fine/Punk Rock"
    b side: "Goats/Pozor/Tallulah"
    Sea Note Records SN-4 1994
    You guessed correctly! It's a collaboration between Will Oldham & Bill Callahan, coincidentally released on my birthday in 1994.

    Golden Earring [42:33]

    a side: "Twilight Zone"
    b side: "King Dark"
    21 Records T1 103 1982
    From the Dutch band that brought us "Radar Love", we have this 1982 chartbuster that I would say is largely forgotten today. Evidently inspired by Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Identity.

    Alvin Cash & the Crawlers [51:45]

    a side: "Twine Time"
    b side: "The Bump"
    Mar-V-Lus 3095 1964
    Bumpity bumpity bumpity bump. That was Alvin Cash & the Crawlers bringing us their high quality Northern Soul go-to backed with an excellent Night Train-esque b-side.

    The Isley Brothers [56:37]

    a side: "Twistin' with Linda"
    b side: "You Better Come Home"
    Wand 127 1962
    Round and around and around and around we go with The Isley Brothers, furthering their Twist and Shout repertoire. Made it to number 54 on the Hot 100.

    Music behind the DJ: "Slow Poke" by Lawrence Welk.
