I missed a couple because I was answering email before connecting to the stream.  Just sitting here with my headphones on, no sound coming out of them...

I REALLY need a vacation!

I'd heard for years that there was a looooooong version, but this was the first time I'd actually heard it.  I suppose I should give an HM to Rachmaninoff.

Meantime, "I'm takin' a dive!" = the second-most-inexplicable ELO non sequitur.

carry on , my wayward mondegreen: I've variously heard "nothing equals the splendor" as "nothing equals the spender" and "nothing equals suspenders".

if only we could hear that Loudon Wainwright "Bicentennial" song in  its entirety. That LPs been out-of-print for decades.

OMG, JS "Cruisin'" BOS2 (#1 was Eric Carmen).

BOS to what has to be a breakout, the JS's "Cruisin'."

ditto, and we have definitely NEVER heard this in any 10@10 afaik, and I goes back a-ways.  Was this a single? Shoulda-been a hit, in any case.

I think the only singles from Spitfire were "With Your Love" and "St. Charles."  But I agree that this could have gotten some action, certainly more than 1978's "Crazy Feelin'."  Love how Grace breaks into bubbling laughter at a few points.  (She probably knew the other definition of "cruisin'.")

I can think of better set-cappers than "Hotel Cali".  

"we haven't had that spirit here since 1969".

TANC, in fact that's downright prescient, as KBCO is serving up '69 next.
