instant BOS for an all-time fave of mine.  Has it really been 2 months since Dave last did '72?

Yes, but remember, we got no fewer than *three* 1972 sets between December 21 and January 25.

and we're agreed on the BOS-ness of Jump Into the Fire (the l-o-o-o-o-o-ng version!).

You know, I've always liked Harry, and I felt this was an innovative song, but I just decided I don't like it.  Just a little too unpleasant and repetitive.  Oh well.

BOS for JG and The Wheel.  I like the beginning, but it really seems out of place with the rest of the song.  Maybe it represents a transition from the hectic world to the bliss that is Jerry...

Not sure how long the Nilsson song is, but I think Dialogue runs something like 8 minutes. And now we've got the Dead (under the sobriquet of Mr. Garcia) doin' The Wheel, which could be kind of long, too.

Oy vey! Jim Croce's Operator--one of the great singles of a year that was full of them.

And I think this is the vinyl.

ETA: And it was a bustout--we've heard I Got a Name and Bad Bad Leroy Brown, both in '73, but Operator is a first-timer.

Something tells me we're gonna hear Argent in this set. Just a feeling.

Scrolling thru the list of Top 40 hits from '72 over on the Top-40 hits site, I am just amazed at the variety of stuff that charted in '72. Definitely one of the best years ever for pop music.

But we knew that.
