Sounding a little bourgeoisie there....you got some of that fancy schmancy satellite radio? :wink:

The straight-ahead jazz leads me to believe so.  I doubt there is any station up in Eupher's neck of the woods playing that sub genre on the radio. :-)

H5 for recognizing the group and the album!

It was years before people realized they were semi-parody Glam (and probably a big influence on the creation of Spinal Tap).

N.B.: I every now and then use the "whistle" open to FOTR for my cell ringtone :)

The local classic rock station played a lot of Sweet when I was a kid.  Back in the days when they never identified that band name, they would mostly just play music and no internet to look up what they played.  Always liked them.

It was a song by the Sweet on their Desolation Boulevard album (most famous for "Fox on the Run" and "Ballroom Blitz").


Sorry, it just doesn't register. The rock I listen to pretty much taps out at 1972. I stopped paying attention to it after that point.

Oh, you pay for it. The radio you listen to is paid for by those who listen to the commercials -- even if you don't buy the crap they're selling.  :-)

Agreed.  I do satellite and paid for Pandora to avoid commercials at any cost.

Desolation Blvd. was 1974.

But I agree with your basic premise -- R & R was pretty much done by 1972.  There were a few exceptions but I have mostly listened to news/talk radio since then.

So far I've seen Phil Collins back in 1990, Peter Gabriel in 2012, Steve Hackett next month. Which leaves Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford.
