in 1970 when I was still Catholic, I thought SITS was a great song. 36 years later, after hearing it way too many times... notsomuch.  I'd love to hear "Canned Ham" some morning, tho'.  Or better yet, "The Eggplant That Ate Chicago".

this was once part of a My 3 Songs with Steve Miller's "Livin' the the USA" and another song with car sound effects that escapes me.

I'm listening to the new Paul Simon single, "That's Me," for potential Stylus review this week.  He's gone pretty far off course this time 'round, drowning in the (Eno?) production.

BOS4 GD, "Box of Rain".  A period in Dead history I can really get behind.

I like "Outrageous", the tune KFOG's been flogging, I don't consider it particularly Eno-esque.

One of my absolute fave Dead tunes--perhaps their most catchy tune ever. (I'm still wondering how they got Phil to sing on key for the whole song. But I was thrilled when he started singing it again circa 86.)

And after not having heard it for, I dunno, at least months, I heard it over the weekend at the REI down on Brannan, and now again today.

"Such a long long time to be gone, and a short time to be there."

I've said this before, but at the time this live Cocker LP was an FM staple, virtually every track got play including the Bonnie Bramlett solo pieces like "That's What My Man is For" ("can you give us a red light? 'cause this is a red light song.") Now all you ever hear is "The Letter".

ah, another Nick Drake song that nobody was aware of at the time but now pretends they were to seem cool.

What was Geoff saying about revisionism?

"Love is the Drug" perhaps?

ETA: And BOSX+1 for Clapton's Bottle of Red Wine. Can't say DM's never played it, but certainly not in the last 8 years or so--I haven't heard it.

If you have never seen it, I would recommend the Anthem to Beauty documentary.  There's a lot of good stuff, which only a few might appreciate, but on this topic, there's a particularly moving segment with Phil and Robert Hunter talking about how this song was written while Phil's father was dying.  Phil pretty much had the music together, and Hunter wrote the lyrics.  To think of the lyrics Hunter wrote in that brief period is awesome.  Talk about being open the the Muse!
