Rob Fisher and Pete Byrne only managed two albums in their heyday, but scored four top 40 hits like "Always Something There to Remind Me" and "Promises Promises" that have remained evergreen. After Rob's death, Pete IS Naked Eyes these days and put out a brand new album this year called Disguise The Limit, their first album of all new material in over 35 years.

Electronically Yours with Martyn Ware

Sandie Shaw is literally a living legend. She is one of the most successful British female singers of the 1960s, she had three UK number one singles with "(There's) Always Something There to Remind Me" (1964), "Long Live Love" (1965) and "Puppet on a String" (1967). With "Puppet on a String", she became the first British entry to win the Eurovision Song Contest. Martyn invited her to record a song for the British Electric Foundation album 'Music Of Quality And Distinction Vol 1', for which she recorded a version of "Anyone Who Had a Heart". Sandie also featured on MQD Vol 3, and Martyn and Sandie have remained great friends for almost 30 years. Their conversation is wide ranging and often hilarious - not to be missed...

1970 - March: The Guess Who “American Woman”

Who is the finest rock band to come out of Winnipeg, Canada?  That's right, The Guess Who.  In January 1970 they released their sixth studio album, American Woman, and were riding the wave of one of their most commercially successful albums in March.  This album took a harder rock direction from their formerly psychedelic and pop sound, and would produce their only number 1 hit in the US, making them the first Canadian band to top the American Hot 100 chart.The Guess Who got their name in 1965 when their record label, Quality Records, released a single under the name “Guess Who?”  They were attempting to build a buzz that the song might be a famous band recording incognito, but the name stuck.  At the time of recording American Woman, the group consisted of Burton Cummings on lead vocals, keyboards, and harmonica, Randy Bachman on lead guitar, Jim Kale on bass, and Garry Peterson on drums.  All band members contributed backing vocals to the strong harmonies of the group.  This album would be Randy Bachman's last with the group (until rejoining in 1983), as he would go on to form Bachman-Turner Overdrive.Friend of the show Bill Cook stands in for the vacationing Brian Dickhute as we look back on one of Canada's greatest rock bands.  No TimeThis first single off the album is a reverse “Dear John” letter.  The song was originally on their album “Canned Wheat,” but made a reappearance on this album with a faster tempo.  “Seasons change and so do I, you need not wonder why.  There's no time left for you.”American WomanThis title song may be their best known of The Guess Who songs.  Randy Bachman started this riff while tuning his guitar during a concert after breaking a string, and turned it into a chart-topping hit.  The lyrics reflect the differences between girls in the States and girls in Canada.  American women were considered “dangerous” by the band.  8:15This deeper cut is talking about meeting at a place at 8:15.  We enjoyed the jangley guitar and the drum break in this one.No Sugar TonightThis track was the B-side from the American Woman single.  Randy Bachman had written a song called “No Sugar Tonight,” and Burton Cummings thought it was too short.  They added a Cummings song that was “New Mother Nature” to lengthen it.  “No Sugar Tonight” was inspired when Bachman saw a tough biker berated by his wife, and she shouted out the final line “And one more thing...you ain't gettin' no sugar tonight!” ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:The Intro to ABC's “Wide World of Sports”The event that came to be known as “the agony of defeat” occurred this month when Vinko Bogataj crashed during a ski jump attempt. STAFF PICKS:Celebrate by Three Dog NightBruce's staff pick peaked at number 15, and is off Three Dog Night's second studio album called "Suitable for Framing."  There are three vocalists for Three Dog Night, and they're all taking lead on this song.  Danny Hutton is on lead in verse 1, Chuck Negron is on lead in verse 2, and Cory Wells is on verse 3.  The song also features the Chicago horn section.Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes) by Edison LighthouseWayne features a group with Tony Burrows on lead.  Burrows would have three hits fronting three different bands - Edison Lighthouse, White Plains, and Brotherhood of Man.Let  It Be by The BeatlesFriend of the show Bill Cook brings us this timeless epic song from the final days of The Beatles.  McCartney wrote this song during a time when the rest of his band members were moving on with their lives, and Paul wasn't sure where his life was going.  In a dream his mother - named Mary - comes to him and says, "let it be."(editors note:  it looks like Bruce was wrong about Ringo Starr living in Atlanta.  He has homes in London, Los Angeles, and Monte Carlo, so don't look for him in Buckhead!)Always Something There to Remind Me by R.B. GreavesRob's staff pick was authored by Burt Bacharach and Hal David.  R.B. Greaves recorded this version at Muscle Shoals, and took it to number 27.  Most people are probably more familiar with the Naked Eyes version from 1983, which took the song to number 20. LAUGH TRACK:Do the Funky Chicken by Rufus ThomasNothing finishes off a great podcast quite like doing the funky chicken!

I’m an only child who has been fortunate/blessed/karmically-enabled with a Dugger-sized family of non-blood brothers, and those of you who know what I’m talking about will get this immediately…blood isn’t always thicker than water. Jim is my brother. You’ve already met Brian, R.J., Mark, Guido, and Jason on this podcast.  Tony on Facebook if you hang out there.  They are my brothers.  You’ve not met Phillip.  He’s my brother, too. But Jim…this one is for Jim.  I was a Resident Assistant in Lothrop Hall at the University of Pittsburgh.  Fall 1994 through Spring 1995.  Jim was a resident.  Jim and I were also members of the Heinz Chapel Choir.  Some of you are former members.  We made music…did we not?  Jim and I were also part of what I’d argue was the first contemporary a cappella group on the campus of the University of Pittsburgh.  Like, what kids know today from the Pitch Perfect movies or The Sing Off.  It was the winter of 1993.  Having rehearsed an Angeles arrangement of “Always Something There to Remind Me,” we, six people named “The Five Bucks,” prepared to perform at the Friday night improvs in the basement of the Cathedral of Learning.  We got bumped.  Indignant and boisterous, we six 5 Bucks exited the Cathedral, stood at the front entrance, and put on a performance for our friends and whoever was interested enough to freeze their collective asses off in the middle of a blustery Pittsburgh Winter.  (Here is a bit more of the history from the Pitt Pendulums’ website.  There you can follow the inception and progress of co-ed contemporary a cappella at Pitt.) And through those experiences, along with a trip to Miami for the Super Bowl in 1995 (…I believe Jim’s Mom won one of those contests through a snack brand…enter a code, mail a thing, call a number, eat enough Doritos, you know…for an all expenses trip for two…), the highlight of which was stumbling upon a free Chuck Berry concert (…yes, you read that right…), Jim became my brother. There are other brothers as well, and my hope is to introduce them to you.  For now, however, let’s finish this conversation with Jim. We present to you, “The Sam Harris Problem…Resolved.” -G

Kirsty Young's castaway is the singer Sandie Shaw. With her melodic, velvety voice, bare feet and Sassoon bob she was the epitome of everything that was swinging about the '60s. She was just 17 when she first topped the charts with Always Something There to Remind Me and went on to become Britain's first Eurovision winner with Puppet on a String. She loathed the song at the time, but has recently come to terms with it after recording a new version which is, she says, rather forlorn. Along with the highs have been terrible lows - years that she calls her dark ages, when, without money or creative freedom, she felt hopeless. It was Buddhism that turned her fortunes around and became central to her life. Now, she says, she cannot believe the journey life has taken her on and she is preparing for a final flourish as a performer. Record: None of them! Book: Lecture on The Heritage of the Ultimate Law of Life by Daisaku Ikeda Luxury: Omamori Gohonzon Producer: Leanne Buckle.
