In '72? Yeah, probably. He was glammier a year later, but I expect he was heading that way by '72. Was this from Honky Chateau or Don't Shoot Me...?

BOS for TOP.  When the horn players go "down on their knees" (actually only one knee), the crowd goes wild.  Or at least the crowd when I saw them.

"Don't Shoot Me..." I believe.  Of course, sequins are one thing -- crocodile costumes are a whole 'nuther animal, as it were.

We're treading close to 10-way tie territory, but if I had to pick one of the 5 so far, this'd be it. Horn players gotta stick together. And the TOP horns are the best.

We had this LP at my college station. It included their take on the old chestnut "Syncopated Clock", which became the theme music for my overnight prog-rock show, which was titled "The Late Show" (long before Letterman).

VVHM for Allman Brothers.  And here's your Bowie, in a non-Katrina, but most glam, incarnation.

and the inevitable Bowie.  It's a rare '72 set that doesn't include something from "Ziggy".

Post by: urth on November 17, 2005, 10:29:37 AM
Y'know, to me, Ziggy Stardust is another of those "perfect" albums they were bandying about this morning, so why the hell do we always hear the same three songs on 10@10? C'mon--Five Years fer cryin out loud. Starman is great too, but it's nearly the Katrina that ATYD is.

I enjoyed that discussion immensely, and even perversely enjoyed the woman who called in to vote for Foreigner IV & The Immaculate Collection.

After Renee said Beggar's Banquet & someone else said Let It Bleed, I wrote the following email:

"I think the Rolling Stones basically made 4 perfect albums in a row, so you gotta add Exile On Main Street & Sticky Fingers.
 
A perfect album for candlelit romance is Avalon.  If you can't seduce someone with that album on, then frankly they couldn't be seduced.
 
And a perfect, if not THE perfect live album is Waiting For Columbus."

I'll be list'nin' in the car (if the signal holds) on my way to Sacto for a lunch meeting. On the way back I have to go take the Anheuser-Busch brewery tour in Fairfield.  Have to.  As part of my job.  Really.  No kidding.

As did I. Totally agreed with the PD when he mentioned Stevie Wonder's early-mid 70s trilogy (Talking Book/Innervisions/Fulfillingness). I tried to get thru to mention Richard and Linda Thompson's Shoot Out the Lights, but just got a busy and didn't have time to dial repeatedly. But it certainly is. Perfect, that is.

So Annalisa's quiz was THE classic Shelley Winters clip from Poseidon Adventure, y'know, "in the water I'm a VERY skinny lady". You had to identify her -- first caller says, "is it Daryl Hannah?" (Ms H was, what? 11 years old in 1972?)

Who ARE these freakin' people?

nice Bonus, tho': "Celluloid Heroes".

Right after Thanksgiving I have to go to Shanghai to help wrap up our deal to sell A-B labels for the Chinese version of Budweiser (Bai Wei).  I'll be hanging with the guy who reports to Prse. August A. Busch V.  So a brewery tour is a business expense for me now!

Clueless Foghead alert!  For the bonus track you had to identify the clip from The Poseidon Adventure in which Shelley Winters says, "See Mr. Scott!  In the water I'm a very skinny woman.  Hack! Agggghhh! Hu-aahhhh! [collapses]."

The first caller (female) guessed, "Darryl Hannah????"

Sure Mme. Curie, you betcha.  That sounded just like an 11 year old girl to me, too.

Good guess.  I looked it up, she turned 12 on Dec 3 of '72.

I knew somebody else had to be taken aback by that caller.  How much you wanna bet she's a blonde?

Ooh!  She shares a birthday with my mom!  (Who was most decidedly *not* 12 in 1972, I hasten to add.)

And Mark, between these stories and your chauffeur experiences, you have just about the most intriguing work history of anyone I've ever known.

Years ago I was on a business trip and did the Bud tour. St. Louis I think. Same trip I saw a ballgame with McGuire playing. Fun tour. There was a tasting room at the end and I remember having hard lemonade. I went back to staff a booth at a convention hall, a bit tipsy.
