S7ish signal heard via the Lodi, New York, SDR with very good audio ...

2357 UTC: "Sing, Sing, Sing" by Benny Goodman and His Orchestra.
0002 UTC: Female voice with "Welcome to the second broadcast of My Favorite Songs Radio." She then said they got lots of requests from the last program and are now playing some. That was followed by "The Elements" by the late, great Tom Lehrer.
0004 UTC: "I Hold Your Hand in Mine" by Tom Lehrer.
0005 UTC: Female host says she's next playing CT Yankee's requests and gives ID and email address. This announcement was then repeated, followed by "Year of the Cat" by Al Stewart. (I guess we're all going to learn more about each others' musical tastes, which should be fun!)
0012 UTC: "Brimful of Asha" by Cornershop (good choice!).
0016 UTC: "The Rain, the Park, and Other Things" by The Cowsills.
0019 UTC: "Pretty Ballerina" by The Left Banke.
0022 UTC: "Mr. Blue Sky" by Electric Light Orchestra.
0026 UTC: "I.G.Y." by Donald Fagan.
0032 UTC: "New Slang" by The Shins (a great song that's also very sad once you listen to the lyrics).
0036 UTC: Host thanking CT Yankee again for his requests, then ID and email address given again, then "Rockaria!" by Electric Light Orchestra.
0040 UTC: "Je t'aime moi non plus" by Serge Gainsbourg & Jane Birkin.
0044 UTC: "Roadrunner" by Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers.
0048 UTC: "Goose Snow Cone" by Aimee Mann.
0052 UTC: "Desperados Under the Eaves" by Warren Zevon.
0055 UTC: "Needle and the Damage Done (Live at Live Aid)" by Neil Young.
0058 UTC: "Bonnet of Pins" by Matt Berringer.
0102 UTC: Female announcer says she hopes listeners enjoyed today's program and the requests and gives the email address again, then off.

Excellent reception - My Favorite Songs Radio?
Great timing on the play......a long 48 hours, 12 of it driving around Metro NYC - Thanks!  8)
2358 "Sing, Sing, Sing" Benny Goodman and His Orchestra
0003 YL with ID, "The Elements" Tom Lehrer
0004 "I Hold Your Hand in Mine" Tom Lehrer
0005 Some knucklehead in the Nutmeg State decided to foul the airwaves ;) to "Year of the Cat" Al Stewart
0012 "A Brimful of Asha" Cornershop. (All India Radio mentioned in song)
0016 "The Rain, The Park, and Other Things" The Cowsills
0019 "Pretty Ballerina" The Left Banke - one of the few rock songs written in Lydian mode
0022 "Mr. Blue Sky" ELO (Wheezer does almost a perfect cover of this song), my 41 year old son was thrown tickets to see ELO in Cleveland last year, he didn't know who they were. 🤦
0026 I.G.Y. - Donald Fagan, Song is about the International Geophysical Year which began in 1957 to gather scientists for the benefit of mankind.
0033 "New Slang" The Shins, a somewhat unnoticed tune until it appeared in Garden State in 2004.
0036 ID to "Rockeria!" ELO, The song opens with German opera like lyric ""Weit hinein in die Ferne
man hört, man hört die Musik" - far into the distance you can hear, you can hear the music
0041 "Je T'aime.....mon non plus" Serge Gainsbourg/Jane Birkin, Serge originally wrote this for his then girlfriend Bridget Bardot, she did a lousy job with it.  A couple of years later rerecorded with new girlfriend Birkin (life is tough) and it became a hit.  The Birkin Bag is named for Jane after a designer saw Birkin dump her belongings in a too small bag at an airport and created a line of handbags/luggage.
0044 "Roadrunner" Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers, for all my friends in the Commonwealth - sorry about the Sox today.  ;D
0048 "Goose Snow Cone" Aimee Mann, story about her room mate's white cat "Goose" when balled up looked like a snow cone
0052 "Desperadoes Under The Eaves" Warren Zevon, Bob Dylan called this the greatest song ever written.  A damn sin Zevon came up short in votes for the R&R Hal of Fame.
0055 "The Needle and The Damage" Neil Young, the second of two songs about having a monkey on your back.
0058 "Bonnet of Pins" Matt Berninger - lead singer of The Nationals from this year.  Clever, smirky lyrics.
0102 email addy, ID, off

0006 Shoutout to the CY Yankee! S9
        Year Of The Cat - Al Stewart
0022 Mr. Blue Sky - I should have dedicated this to the Radio USA Op as well.

The thing I remember about Garden State is a guy arriving with the gas nozzle still in the fill hole and a bit of the hose where it ripped off when he drove away ...

Je T'Aime was considered racy back in the day ...  Heard on the BBC Top 20

Roadrunner is the name of a fairly new concert venue in Boston..



Hoping the band stays open for you Deano!

GREAT selections by the way!  I'll listen to the Wheezer version.
