That backing guitar sounds way too familiar ... I was gonna say it's the same guitar tone as the Isleys' "Who's That Lady?," but that's not right ... where did I just hear that recently?

A "Free Ride" indeed!  Hoping for Chicago boy Steve Goodman's wonderful "The Dutchman"... but I somehow doubt it.

"Who's That Lady"? it was in Dave's '73 Soul Patrol last week.

BOS to Todd, "Just One Victory."  I do appreciate the feeling of triumph in the recording.  Wonder if Todd is worshipped among the Drivers as much as the Fogheads ...

Gotta question the inclusion of "Showdown."  I spent this past weekend in Boston, and among the CDs I took on the trip was a 1974 10@10 that Urthwerm recorded for me two years ago -- a set that kicked off with "Showdown."  Who's right?  Who's wrong?  What have you done for me lately?  </missjanet>

It's an overlapper (the LP came out in '73) AND it was re-released as a single a couple years later (after El Dorado's success). So it's "legal" in 3 different years.

they're both right 'cuz they count things differently.

LP On the Third Day released in December 1973, the song "Showdown charted in 1974, peaking at #53.

you guys ever heard of Uncle Bonsai?  A singer-songwriter-ish folk/rock trio from Seattle, primarily the two females share lead vocals.  This is one of their better known songs:  "Boys Want Sex in the Morning"

Boys want
Sex in the morning
Sex in the morning
When I'm not my best
Boys want
Sex in the morning
Sex in the morning
Tearing at my breast
Boys want
Someone who's winsome
Someone to pin
Someone to undertake
Boys want
Someone to fall on
Someone to crawl on
Someone half awake

Boys want
Sex in the morning
Sex in the morning
Covers at my knees
Boys want
Rotten conditions
Passive positions
I am a trapeze
Boys want
Someone who's sleepy
Someone who's keeping
Nothing in too deep
Boys want
Somebody first hand
Someone to burst
And then go back to sleep

There is nothing I like better
Than a jostle now and then
With the hands under the sweater
And the back that starts to bend
But before my eyes are open
I don't want to have to hide
From a simpleton still poking
With a thimbleful of pride

Boys want
Sex in the morning
Sex in the morning
Soiling the sheets
Boys want
Sex while I'm yawning
Suddenly spawning
When I'm half asleep
Boys want
Someone unconscious
Somebody not just
Waiting for a thrill
Boys want
Sex with surprises
Sex with sunrises
Someone on the pill

There is nothing like a lover
Who can satisfy your needs
And the joy when you discover
Just how often he succeeds
But before my eyes can focus
I don't need him to surprise
By descending like a locust
On a field of sleeping thighs

Boys want
Sex in the morning
Sex in the morning
When I'm still not fresh
Boys want
Something that strikes them
Someone who likes them
Fondling their flesh
Boys want
Someone to take and
Someone to break and
Comment on their size
Boys want
Someone to prod and
Someone who'll nod
And then just close her eyes

I have it and can copy it for you.  If you liked that then you'd also have to have their most famous-est song: "Penis Envy" (if only for the last line) Read this really quickly then take a meaningful pause after the final "but..."

If I had a penis
I'd wear it outside
In cafes and car lots
With pomp and with pride
If I had a penis
I'd pamper it proper
I'd stay in the tub
And use me as a stopper

If I had a penis
I'd take it to parties
Stretch it and stroke it
And shove it at smarties
I'd take it to pet shows
And teach it to stay
I'd stuff it in turkeys
On Thanksgiving Day

I'd rival my buddies
In sports cars and stick shifts
I'd shower my spire
With girlies and gifts
I'd peek around corners
I'd aim at my toilet
I'd poke it at foreigners
I'd soap it and oil it

If I had a penis
I'd run to my mother
Comb out the hair
And compare it to brother
I'd lance her, I'd knight her
My hands would indulge
Pants would seem tighter
And buckle and bulge

A penis to plunder
A penis to push
'Cause one in the hand
Is worth one in the bush
A penis to love me
A penis to share
To pick up and play with
When nobody's there

I'd sit like a boy
I'd straddle the chair
I'd play with my fly
Albeit with care
I'd dip it in chocolate
I'd stick it in sockets
I'd stroll to the movies
With hands deep in pockets

I'd stick in vacuums
On vacant verandahs
Gas guzzling Volvos
And poodles and pandas
In puddles and drainpipes
In doggies and ditches
Pool halls and potholes
And bottles and bitches
Zucchinis and zebras
Tomatoes, tomatoes
In pineapples, pumpkins
And gulches and grottos
In melons and marshmallows
Gloves and gorillas
Slurpies and slippers
Chinooks and chinchillas

A penis to plunder
A penis to push
'Cause one in the hand
Is worth one in the bush
A penis to love me
A penis to share
To pick up and play with
When nobody's there

If I had a penis
I'd climb every mountain
I'd force it on females
I'd pee like a fountain
If I had a penis
I'd still be a girl
But I'd make much more money
And conquer the world.
