Question of the Day: A Real Rollercoaster Ride

We're celebrating the aniversary of Coney Island's first rollercoaster, the Switchback Railway.  Maximum Speed?  6mph. But hey, it was 1884 so it probably seemed like a thrill at the time.  Today, we play songs about rollercoasters, Coney Island - or even songs that SOUND like rollercoasters.  

Here's today's playlist:

1. "Coney Island" - Good Old War, Only Way To Be Alone

2. "Roller Coaster Town" - Garland Jeffreys, The King of In Between

3. "Roller Coaster" - Little Walter, The Essentials 

4. "Bubble House" - DJ Logic, Project Logic Live @ Wetlands

5. "Roller Coaster of Love" - Ohio Players, Honey
