Title: 23 January 2007--it's 90% 1973, 10% 1972
Post by: urth on January 23, 2007, 10:00:39 AM: Margo needs to hear this certain song, so she's pleading for '73, BUT SHE GOT THE YEAR WRONG.

Typical foghead, even in Canada.

Dave sez don't call and bitch him out for this, it's not his fault.

Post by: Alicat on January 23, 2007, 10:02:12 AM: Thanks for clarifying that Dave. You KNOW you'd get nailed for playing 72 in 73! (not that I'd know)

Post by: RGMike on January 23, 2007, 10:02:21 AM: That was the most convoluted explanation for a set EVER.

Why not just do '72, Dave? BOS to this only-played-once-before rarity, tho', just on principle.

He probably had all his clips and the rest of the set laid out before he discovered the screw up.

It may be a rarity, but frankly "I Got A Thing About You Baby" just ain't doin' it for me.

BOS to Doctor Don, though.

Post by: RGMike on January 23, 2007, 10:08:32 AM: From the "People Hear What they Want to Hear" file: It still astounds me that NOBODY realized GYBR was about a rent-boy being "kept" by a rich old queen. Shows how underground gay culture was then -- and how overground it is now.

BOS3 my old co-worker Howard Cosell.

Cha-CHING! Good call, Mike. Two down, hopefully more to come.

That 7Up clip sure sounded like it came from vinyl, dinnit? Lots of pops throughout.

An ex-roommate had the Dr Don Rose edittion of the "Cruisin'" series -- it was from 1967 when he was in Atlanta. Wonderful stuff.

Hey baby -- say hello to my redneck friend, nudgenudgewinkwink.

He's the missing link, the kitchen sink, eleven on a scale of ten...

when your "redneck friend" measures eleven, you shouldn't have any trouble meeting chicks, Jackson.

Post by: RGMike on January 23, 2007, 10:24:29 AM: Dave's unearthed a new cache of newsclips, sounds like.

BOS4, "Ridgetop" -- just noticed how much the intro to this sounds like a Steely Dan track.

Bet he got a pretty penny for that "squirrel sanctuary" when he moved to Hawaii.

well, redneck friend has one of the more gloriously gnarly David Lindley solos.

re: Ridgetop
Didn't his house get burned down in that big fire?

We ALWAYS have this discussion. The LP was a (very) late '72 release; the singles from it both peaked in '73. But, yes, Dave has it both ways most of the time.

October? I understand it took a while for the rest of the album (besides the single) to come to some people's attention. I just have a very vivid 72 memory of this album.

When Gaz was here & he was riding around SF with me in my truck, "Ridgetop" came up on my iPod playlist, and we chatted about it a bit. So 'hanging with Gaz' is how I think I 'll remember the song for quite a while now.
