No station will ever rate 30 points ever again 
. I wasn’t trendy back then ,Stereo 10 were my favourite station back in 1987-88 though I did occasionally change over to FM 104

Never Surrender/Corey Hart today on 4KQ.
I generally find I like the 80s songs 4KQ play, when they play 80s. They’re usually the less-flogged ones

Desensitized- INVERTIGO (Chilli FM Scottsdale/Lonny).
Heard about 1400 on Sunday afternoon. I haven’t heard this on commercial radio since it was in rotation around 2000. It does get an airing occasionally on The Mechie Show @Mechsta

Baby Animals - Working for the Enemy (Rebel)
Banger of an album track from one of the great debut albums out there, nice to hear something a bit different of theirs too

Not commercial radio but significant nonetheless:
Thick As A Brick, Side 1- JETHRO TULL
short announcement, then
Thick As A Brick, Side 2- JETHRO TULL
(2VOX FM, Tuesday night).
A very self-indulgent wank if you’re not a fan, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

On Triple M today:
Alan Parsons Project, “Eye in the Sky” (1982)
This is a group who deserves more air play “Don’t Answer Me “ is another song from them I remember,also “Games People Play”

Did they play the long intro to ‘Eye in the Sky’ ?
All three are great songs.
That would be ‘Sirius’, and in my books it’s criminal not to play it (most stations omit it of course).

Yes that’s it. FM104 used to always play it back in the day. The only station I’ve heard play the Sirius intro lately is Breeze.
