For me, it was Captain Beefheart as the big surprise. But this was a very eclectic mix. Not at all what you'd expect from those two characters. Would think Johnny would be 100% traditional rock and Venus would be soul, funk, and maybe a tiny bit of yacht rock to keep things smooth.

Glad the show didn't do this. The writers let these two DJs be the typical 70's DJs who made their own playlists and to hell with the record companies.

Would be interesting to know how much thought the show's writers put into music selection since every song on the playlist was a song noted on the show. It's a nice cross section of American music from mid 60s to early 80s.
