Mon 3/21/11: 1974

a fine way to start the week, greeted by Bobby W, lookin' fo' a love!

and BJ's makin' love to his Tonic & Gin.

OMG: Mr Chapin's "W-O-L-D" gets a BOS; it's a far more palatable blend of sap and smarts than "Cat's in the Cradle", IMHO.

sorry I missed "Tubular Bells" and the Steely Dan uber-rarity "Night By Night"

Tue 3/22/11: 1987

closest to anything earth-shattering: the Smiths' "Shoplifters of the World" and Flesh for Lulu's "I Go Crazy"

ELP get lucky; the Cat man gets wild; Van the man gets money; Janis moves over; and Marvin says WTF?

Holy flaming mother of CSNY: David Crosby's "Music Is Love" is rarer than rare. An ATBB?

Very sorry I missed Seatrain's "13 Questions", one of the great shouldabeens.  And this is the first '70s set I can recall to go to 11.

Thur 3/24/11: 1979

it's only "Logical" to play Supertramp. BOS Graham Parker's "Protection", ditto EC "Oliver's Army", politics with ABBA flourishes.

Yowsah Yowsah Yowsah! uber-BOS3 Mr Zappa's "Dancin' Fool".

aaack. WOS Sublime, who are not. Followed by Jonny Lang.  Sorry I missed Wilco's "Outtasite (Outtamind)" which is a bustout, methinks.

Yeesh: Matchbox 20 "Push"es me ay-round. I can't hear Rob T now without thinking of Cher.

VHM Verve Pipe, one I haven't heard in a while.

Corrective Soles' "Precious Declaration" is a bustout. But that doesn't mean it's good.

Sheesh: Wallflowers.

BOS Bowie's "Little Wonder".
