Play list - 07/26/2007

it was another day of sending out bad song information, lol. for my cover song, i picked the aquamarines doing apache. i thought the original was by incredible bongo band in 1972 or so, but they weren't the first to do it either. bill at the station came in and said he thought it was jorgen ingmann in the late 60's. someone else called in and said they remembered jorgen ingmann's version. so i announced that i was wrong and that it was jorgen ingmann's song. of course, that was wrong too. bill looked it up, and it was originally by the shadows in 1960. aaaargh. but as my friend dickie said, at least it shows that people are listening and paying attention :-) Check out all these versions of Apache and read more about it
