Think Dave'll go into the McCartney well again?  I won't be surprised if "Another Day" turns up.

But I'd rather get 3DN's "Liar."

Happy to get a second helping of "What Is Life."  BOS from me.

Being as we have one already, I'm going to say two, rich vein of material that 1971 tends to be. But I expect to have artist duplication on at least two others as well.

Oh, and a strong BOS to the Faces, Stay With Me.

The astute listener will note that those descending low piano notes at the coda of HCTRDFA showed up again a few years later on the coda of Kiss's "Shout It Out Loud."

Holy sh!t!  Another in my all-time Top 5, Lighthouse's "One Fine Morning."  A perfect riposte to the Fortunes' lament.

Man, was that 7-11 commercial R-rated or what?

...and now it's time for ABC's Wide World of Sports.

Am I spotting vinyl?  This song was mixed really poorly on two compilations I have.

Good tune.  Thought it might be the Ides of March.  Did Lighthouse do anything else of note?

Proxy of RGMike goes to the Supremes' "Nathan Jones."  I would have liked "Floy Joy" more but will accept this gladly.  I still haven't found a good post-Diana Supes comp!

They had one more hit a year later, "Sunny Days," which Dave trots out once or twice a year IIRC.

Speaking of whom, I had occasion to watch a bit of Gene Simmons ridiculous reality-TV offering last night. I was amazed at what a nebbishy schlemiel the God of Thunder is in real life. He seems like the real-life version of Billy Crystal's character in Mr. Wonderful. His kids however are a scream. Both have no delusions about their dad, and break his balls every chance they get.

have to give a VHM to "Walk Away", always like Dale Peters bass work.

One more BOS to "Draggin' the Line".

I got my fill of that show three months ago, when I was hired to write a 60-question quiz about the show for the A&E network's website.  I spent a weekend watching the entire first season almost nonstop.  Gene seems to be entirely in on the joke of making himself a reality-TV "character," and I don't know if that's a good or bad thing.  The real Gene is impenetrable.  And yeah, Nick and Sophie are probably the best-adjusted Hollywood kids out there.

So the actual total was one and one, but the Fortunes song filled the slot of the 5-Man Electrical Band.

And now Dave is playing Bargain (anoher tune off Who's Next) just before Annalisa takes over.

Apparently Annalisa thinks so--she's using it for the bonuz quiz question.

Who was that announcer anyway? Sounded kinda like a more laid-back version of Orson Welles.

I do love that Fortunes tune, and never tire of pointing out ut's influence on "Cruel to Be Kind".  I look forward to 10pm.  BTW urth, today is the 27th.

Indeed it is--thanks for the catch. Mark was the one who started the thread, but none of the rest of us caught it either. I used my moderator superpowers to make things right again.
