Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
We are approaching this week’s themed show a little differently from our usual way of doing things…
This time out we’re taking our cues from The Yardbirds’ fifth UK Top Ten single, ‘Over Under Sideways Down’, which came out in 1966. and using their song title to provide the shape of each bracket of songs we’re going to play - that is, one song each featuring over, under, side, ways and down in their titles.
Why? I hear you all ask…yeah OK, but that was last week’s question!
This week the question is: ‘Why the hell not!’
This Yardbirds classic was all about having fun, so that’s what we’re gonna do! Except we won’t be doing all that much of the ‘laughing, joking, drinking, smoking, 'til I've spent my wage’ that the band declare they are doing….
We will, though endeavour to uphold the part in the lyric (slightly modified here!) that says:
'Think we'll go and have some fun, 'cause it's all for free.
We're not searching for a reason to enjoy ourselves -
Seems it's better done than argued with somebody else.’
Which ever way you look at it - backwards, forwards, square or round - it’s a pretty risk free choice to tune in on Saturday at 11:00pm on Three D Radio 93.7fm to see who comes up with the best brackets of five tracks on our collective playlist!
'When will it end?’
As usual, probably sometime around 4am - maybe a little bit over, possibly a little bit under!
