Grand Funk Railroad... "Hooked On Love"
Grand Funk Railroad... "I'm Your Captain"
Grand Funk Railroad... "Mean Mistreater"
Foreigner - "Cold As Ice"
Foreigner - "Jukebox Hero" (Ironic that would be given the jack debacle)
Steely Dan - "Peg"
Steely Dan - "Do It Again"
Steely Dan - "Hey Nineteen"
Steely Dan - "Dirty Work"
(Yes, I guess we can do better than "Reelin' In The Years)... heh!
I could go on and on... but if I want to hear 80's Rod Stewart and Dionne Warwick tunes, there's always WLTW and a ton of other crappy AC stations in the NYC market. The station is sounding more and more shaky to me as time goes by. Please, WCBS, Don't dumb it down too much... Don't lose the spark!
BTW, I'm not suggesting the few songs I mentioned above (I could think of thousands if you gave me enough time) should be put into heavy rotation. But they would make for nice surprises once in a while.
80's music is fine. Ditch the fluff.
