Well, '71 is the most blatantly overdue. Here's hoping...

Very fast start--Hendrix, Freedom. I'd have said it was a bustout, but the Shraytabase knows all and it says my memory is failing. One previous appearance within its purview, about 4 1/2 years ago.

believe it or not, NGDB is a Db bustout.  Not just the song, the band.

I know they've popped up in the distant past, but not for AGES.

Now THIS appears to be a bustout.

Free association: KROY, one of the top 40 stations mentioned in that Sacto Radio History essay I posted the other day, had this recorded bit about "Uncle Murph and his dog Fotchell" that they'd always play as a lead-in to this song. Never knew if it was something they made up, or something off a comedy record of the day (the Committee? Firesign?). Haven't heard it since.

wasn't Fotchell the name of Alice & Ray's dog in "Alices Restaurant"?

That's actually on the album Dirt, Silver & Gold, a triple LP which is what most boxed sets aspire to be.

DAY-UM. Never knew that. Now I gotta go find me a copy. Which may or may not be easy, depending on whether it's in print or not, now that Village Music is but a memory.

I liked this bit too:

Zep went no such route. They were into full-length furs and platform boots and exotic Middle-Eastern musical motifs, Aleister Crowley and Norse mythology and references to Valhalla and Thor and "The Lord of the Rings." You know, just like Spinal Tap. Only better.

I'd wager that it's one of maybe 3 tracks from that LP Dave has played, along with "It's Too late" and (maybe) "Smackwater Jack".

OMG!!!! Another first-timer and a personal fave (although I didn't discover it anywhere near 1971): Yes, Starship Trooper.

BOS5? 6? I lost track.

Either Bob or Rob played this quite recently, but kudos to Dave if it's a bustout. This set more than makes up for getting '89 & '94 back-to-back.

I wouldn't have guessed, but we've only heard this Dramatics cut once before--also 2004--that set also had the Carole King, HJF&R, and Lee Michaels tunes.

Bah, I felt like I shot my wad early w/ my BOS to Carole King when I heard "What You Want"...

OTOH, as you say, it was so nice hearing something from Tapestry.  That was such a nice thing to discover in my parents' record collection.  Which reminds me -- I need to steal the record player and the record back from them.  :-}

As we've said before, given that Tapestry is one of the biggest-selling LPs of all time., it's odd how few tracks Dave has played -- in fact Ms King tends to get short shrift from Dave all around. We've never heard anything from Music, "Jazzman" shows up occasionally... and that's pretty much it.  Her cover of "One Fine Day" would brighten a  dreary early-'80s set.

Reminds me of the Firesign Theatre LP with "Marx and Lennon" (Groucho and John) on the cover.

My favorite Goffin/King song is "Goin' Back" from Notorious Byrd Brothers.  Totally awesome, and I don't know if Dave's ever played anything from that album.

Dusty Springfield's cover of "Goin' back" is sublime, and Ms King has recorded it more than once, iirc (once with The City and once solo? or am I confused?)

And indeed, Alicat happened to record the set that day and sent me a cassette copy.

Sorry I missed this set!  BOS could have gone in 8 or 9 directions.

And when my birthday rolls around, I think I might beg Dave to play something from Carole King and Maurice Sendak's Really Rosie in a '75 set.
