I guess DW has a copy of the same list Mike posted the other day. In any case, glad to see this year come up. Lots of potentially great material. And since the WTF stream seems to be down, looks like I will be listening right off the bat.

I love the fact that most of the outstanding years are late-'90s/'00s. Guess he finds those years as uninteresting as we do.

and once again, the list seems to be pretty standard stuff, nothing remotely rare. :(

There was a time when Freddie's Dead would have been a pretty serious rarity, but not lately. Great tune, still.
I did enjoy the All in the Family clip that led off before L&M.

The Chakachas tune falls into the rarity column for me. It was a Davefave for sure, but I've rarely heard it outside of that framework.
The long version of Layla however, is pretty meh. Loved it at the time, overplayed in the ensuing years.

well, if it's stamp collecting we're talking about, yeah. But, where am I going to hear this music these days? Certainly not on KFOG. I for one would certainly dig deeper in '72, but to hear Dave's voice, and the Allman Brothers, hey...it sounds great!
And, since we had the piano player play the B side of Layla at our wedding, I'm still a little partial to hearing it! (Technically it's 1971, although this is the album that wouldn't die)

Granted. I'm (a) a very nit-picky music geek and (b) crankier than usual these days because work really really sucks, but I just feel that, with no corporate suits looking over his shoulder, the choices should be a little less obvious. Not expecting 10 rarities every set, but... "Layla" and "Let's Stay Together" are especially LN to me. And I suspect that anyone who loves 10@10 enough to seek it out on the internet is probably interested in digging deeper too.

Actually, it was 1970.

The long version was the album version, not the single.
