Cheers to the KLOO listener, Lori in Stayton I think, who, on the station's Friday 4 p.m. SELECT A SET, a regular programming feature where a selected listener gets to pick three or four songs that the station will air, went for a set that dealt directly with matters of the heart.
Can't recall ever hearing a thematic set before, but something maybe has gone amiss in that person's life, for KLOO listeners were treated to Love Hurts by Nazareth, Love Stinks by the J. Geils Band, Love Bites by Def Leppard, and Heart Of Stone by the Rolling Stones. Surely a nice cheerful way to roll into what's going to be a fantastic weekend, no?
John Cooper Clarke's wonderful Heart Disease Called Love was obviously not in the stations vast music library, that certainly would have been a perfect addition to the songs selected. There's no video of that song that I could find, so here's another classic track from the Bard Of Salford in a similar vein, entitled Tw@t. This post is dedicated to an ex-roommate of mine, not because he was or is an idiot, far from it, but because once he heard my twin-grooved 45 back then, he would have me play it at parties constantly. Ain't love grand? (this is the uncensored version, with language probably NSFW).
