March 3, 20232 yr Author I only really know Pulp's big hits / songs that were already played so no input from me here but RIP. (Also oop I need to get another tracklist up again, let me try and remember to do that later today!)
March 4, 20232 yr Jazz saxophonist Wayne Shorter died on Thursday. He was a member of Weather Report which would point towards a Suedeonian BJSC entry Birdland. He also played on Don Henley's The End Of the Innocence.
March 5, 20232 yr Author Oh I saw that name but did not know he was a member of Weather Report. I loved 'Birdland' so definitely up for playing that.

At The Disco - Nine In The Afternoon (from #2 album Pretty. Odd.) and a few Jamelia slots of jokes that landed or didn't to various degrees including the Sesame Street 'one of these things' song that clearly inspired 'The Pretender', me being utterly hilarious playing a video entitled 'What Is Interpol?' and Dot playing some unfunny cringy rap from an award ceremony or something idk I left before it started + Dandy also queued the Basement Jaxx remix of Adele's 'Hometown Glory' and then dipped before it played
March 5, 20232 yr Author Back to the full 3 hours this week and 43 albums covered bringing us up to October 2009 (although with a few more bonus songs peppered throughout as there were actually 3 different albums in this time period that re-charted at #1 in separate chart runs to their original runs - brownie points if anyone can recall all 3 without looking it up). And dusting off a klaxon for the return of an artist we've had plenty of times before but not for a while... :thinking: This week's #2 albums: 2008 Third - Portishead In Silico - Pendulum All Hope Is Gone - Slipknot Glasvegas - Glasvegas Year of the Gentleman - Neyo Let It Go - Will Young Off with Their Heads - Kaiser Chiefs A Hundred Million Suns - Snow Patrol Decade in the Sun: Best of the Stereophonics - Stereophonics Safe Trip Home - Dido Chinese Democracy - Guns N Roses 2009 I Am Sasha Fierce - Beyonce Tonight - Franz Ferdinand The Annie Lennox Collection - Annie Lennox Kingdom of Rust - Doves Sounds of the Universe - Depeche Mode Music for the People - The Enemy Escala - Escala Love & War - Daniel Merriweather La Roux - La Roux Catch 22 - Tinchy Stryder One Love - David Guetta Kings & Queens - Jamie T I Am Chipmunk - Chipmunk I will nominate the title track from Doves' album as I feel like it's important we play something from them given the album missed out on #1 by 4 sales. (Also a great song that I want to hear again anyway) Also nominating Jamie T - Sticks 'N' Stones, my first ever personal chart #1! And let's go Pendulum - Propane Nightmares too to fill out a rare trio of self nominations x
