Three years ago, the song that drove me crazy with the repeated, multi-times a day play was "When I Grow Up (To Be A Man)". I mean, I once cherished that song, but grew to despise it, after 3-5 helpings a day (I've grown quite fond of it again, since). Over on The Beatles channel, it was the damn "Walrus" song ad naseum at first. Eventually, it became "Rocky Raccoon" that hit the over-saturation point. Ugh.

Hahha I recall Surfer Moon  getting a ton of air play in 18 too. Do It Again and In My Room are the ones that I manage to keep tuning into . I also head Ride the Wild Surf with out the lead vocal , only the backing track which was super weird. I have heard almost the entire KTSA album now ( Except for Oh Darlin) . I wish they would mix in more from In Concert and Knebworth(I’ve only heard Sloop from it ). It was great hearing Do You Wanna Dance from Al’s live album today !

Listened on my 35 minute drive home today and heard things like "Your Summer Dream," "Love is a Woman," and "My Love Lives On."

Of course they also sprinkle in "Little Deuce Coupe" and "You're So Good To Me," but that's expected and fine.

Never thought that I would get tired of Susie Cincinnati. But can’t count how many times I’ve heard it over the past few days.

But all is good - playing Kiss Me Baby now

Playing Mt Vernon and Fairway!

It's great that SiriusXM brought back this station and how they're not afraid to dig deep with the track listing.  However I have to admit I get quickly fatigued by this station after only a few minutes of listening to it.  Not sure what it is.  Maybe it's the jarring track listing that jumps all over the place.  One minute you're listening to an extremely early track like "Stoked" followed by something off of TWGMTR.  Or maybe it's because I keep hearing the same tracks over and over again (I'm looking at you, "Help Me Rhonda").  Or maybe it's the fact that I've heard most of these songs so many times before in my life that I've become desensitized to them.  Not trying to complain though; I just think this station works best for me in small doses. Anybody else feel this way?

I'm surprised by the variety of songs from Summer in Paradise that are being played.  I knew Forever would be in rotation due to John Stamos' participation, but I've heard Island Fever and Summer of Love more than once during my drive time.  Pisces Brothers came on last night on my way home from work as well.

Anybody who has heard Celebration material on the station, how does it sound? Vinyl sourced? Cuz as far as I know, only "Almost Summer" has made a digital appearance, on a pretty rare compilation CD.

I just heard 'Orange Crate Art". Wow. That's deep. Great job!

I hope they make this channel permanent. They could have everyone take 'guest D.J.' turns. I'm sure Brian, Al, Mike, David, and Bruce would enjoy playing records that had a influence on them as well as their favorite BB songs.

Listened practically nonstop today.  Yeah, there's some repetition issues, which I hear now that I've listened for a few hours straight through.  First, on Saturday I heard Back Home 1970 and You Need A Mess of Help to Stand Alone, both for the first time ever, and I definitely enjoyed both, especially YNAMOHTSA which kicks ass.  Also on Saturday, I heard Honkin' Down the Highway, followed by a promo for "2 in a Row" from Love You and then heard I'll Bet He's Nice and then All Summer Long.  Someone must have messed up the queue.  ASL is one I, ironically, hear a ton on the station; I  haven't heard The Surfer Moon yet, I don't believe.

Anything marked with an asterisk is I believe my first time hearing that song.

I heard Celebration's Gettin' Hungry today.  Sounded okay to me, but I was listening on a computer without headphones or proper speakers.  And it was also the first time I had ever heard it so I can't really be of much help unfortunately.  I have only listened to versions of Almost Summer, Cruisin, and disco California Girls on YouTube, in varying quality.

They're playing Celebration's "Gettin' Hungry" right now.  Definitely from vinyl;  noticeable crackles,  etc.

They stick the "2 in a row" bumper in between the two songs from the album in question, same as 2018. I gather it's a "you just heard one from that album, and we're doing a 2-in-a-row, and here's the second one" sort of thing.

And now it's "Doo Wah Diddy Diddy" by Manfred Mann followed by a track by OutKast.

Somebody flipped the wrong switch over there at SiriusXM.

Or, they abruptly canceled the channel!

Last I checked it switched back. I'm guessing it was just a glitch that lasted a little while.

Anybody who has heard Celebration material on the station, how does it sound? Vinyl sourced? Cuz as far as I know, only "Almost Summer" has made a digital appearance, on a pretty rare compilation CD.

They're playing Celebration's "Gettin' Hungry" right now.  Definitely from vinyl;  noticeable crackles,  etc.



Don't forget that the Celebration material has never appeared on CD or other digital form (other than Boots)

Yes, of course. The previous posted just wanted confirmation that it was sourced from vinyl, because *theoretically* BRI (or MELECO/Mike in the case of "Celebration" material) could be supplying SiriusXM with the hand full of weird tracks that have never seen release outside of vinyl (e.g. the 84/85 4th of July tracks).

What's strange is that SiriusXM is clearly pulling stuff from vinyl, perhaps the way any old radio station over the years would, yet they won't play anything from "Looking Back With Love."

I'm curious if Mike said no to playing LBWL material. But I'm not sure if the band/BRI is vetting the material Sirius is playing, because Sirius is using those grey-market live albums that BRI surely wouldn't be supportive of (e.g. Japan 1966, Washington DC 1981, Carl live at the Bottom Line '81, etc.).

I know we did this back in 2018, but can anyone think of any other commercially-released albums/comps, etc. that SiriusXM has never touched on?

I don't think they've pulled "Barbie" off the old flexidisc, but one-off things like that (e.g. live "What'd I Say") are the main thing they haven't touched on. The ESQ CDs as well, though those aren't even really "commercially released" as such.

You have certainly raised a very interesting point of what has only been released on Wax but not CD , after wracking my brian (there is some matter left) the only one I can think of that you have not mentioned would be the 12" Instrumental of HCTN,  and the Rock N Roll City material

AND Lady Liberty ? (but we don't talk about that LOL)

I"m not sure if "Lady Liberty" ever got an airing back in 2018. I have a vague recollection it may have, but I can't be sure.

They play "Chasin' the Sky" and "Problem Child" even though the former never got an official CD release, and the latter only hit CD as a promo.

I'd say "Lady Liberty" is slightly *less* obscure than a few tracks they've played in that "Lady Liberty" was issued on a CD single as I recall.

I'm trying to think if all of the weird Brian solo tracks have been aired. Has "This Song Wants to Sleep With You Tonight" ever been aired? Some non-album bonus tracks have been aired, but not for instance the obscure digital "In My Room" bonus track from GIOMH. All the Smile bonus instrumental tracks?

You sure you mean “In My Room” as the bonus track for GIOMH? Wasn’t the bonus track actually “Don’t Worry Baby”? And if I recall, didn’t it feature Wendy Wilson? And while we are at it, I can’t remember the last time I heard that track. Does anybody have access to it? I don’t think it’s on YouTube.

Yeah, I'm sure it was indeed "Don't Worry Baby", and it seems to have slipped through the net of even a lot of hardcore BB track collectors, as fewer BB fans (many of which seem to be late adopters of newer music formats) would have bought the full GIOMH album on iTunes back in 2004 to get the track, and it disappeared from iTunes ages ago.
