He was the Nazz, with god-given azz.

BOS to "What Does It Take," one of my all-time favorite song openings (along with "More Love" and "Lover's Concerto").

"Todd is Godd"-given azz.
BOS to that and BOS2 Jr Walker. I smell a 10-way-tie, but I'm not sure what the obscure early Bread tune he's mentioned will be.

I'll see your "Lover's Concerto" and raise you an "Opus 17". ;)
ah, White Bird must fly, or she will die.

Ooh, good call - that one should be in my Top 10 too. And "Reach Out, I'll Be There." Anyone else got favorite openings to add?

The Bread tune had to be before their first Top 40, which was "Make It With You" in July/Aug 70.

BOS1 to Junior Walker, for one of the perfect songs of all time. BOS2 to Beautiful Day and the tunnel of violins

Steam officially needs to be banned -- worst '69 Katrina ever. (this is it's 12th appearance, and that's just per the shraytabase -- imagine how many times Dave played it pre-db)

at least by playing it early Dave gives himself time to win us back.

"and in the morning with your toast and marmalad-io" Best. Jingle. EVAH!
it's the age of UN-quarius! I'd forgotten these "Uncola Underground" spots. Genius!
and this Peace Corps spot -- wow!
-
VHM "Wishful Sinful".
-
Love those ol' 7UP (and Coke/Pepsi) ads. Are they available on CD? That ad just gave me a flashback to being in art class in 7th grade in 69/70 with Peter Max posters on the wall (had pretty hip music and art teachers then). And still have my 45rpm of Spiral Staircase!
-
Well, Spiral Starecase is a big a 'trina as Steam, I s'pose. But I like it a whole lot more and am determined to karaoke it someday.
-
Oh yeah, have you heard? Paul is dead!

BOS2 from me, but it's way too high in tenor-tory for me to attempt it.

and I just noticed that "Starecase" (a classic '60s wrong-spelling-on-purpose) is misspelled "Staircase" in the shraytabase. Get on that, wouldya Mark? ;)
-

WOS "Oh Darling" -- (a) it's one of my least-fave Beatles songs because (b) they ripped off Charles Brown and (c) Little Steven played it last nite and once a month is plenty.

Wow, you're right, I just checked my Whitburn Top 40 book and had never caught that correct spelling before. Amazing what you learn from 10at10!

BOS Bread "Dismal Day" -- I *do* remember this. Very nice. Rather Association-ish.
-
BOS3 to Tommy!
afterthought: I'd have to be listening on big living room stereo speakers for this to overtake Junior Walker today.
-
BOS3 to Tommy!
What?
-
Gotta include a "Tommy" tune in a 69 set, BOS!
-

What?
is the stream that far behind the over-the-air version? You posted your BOS3 a full minute before the Bread song ended on my stream.
-

What version is this? It definitely sounds different than what I'm used to.

"Underture" (am I correct?)

It's Underture all right, but not the one that appears on the original LP, unless I'm very much mistaken. Or maybe I'm just confusing it with the Overture. That could be it...

Ah yes, early Zep, very 1969, man

you're definitely ahead of me, geoff.
For a few secs I thought the Zep intro was the intro to "Sweet Cherry Wine". LOL!

one of those classic intros that has nothing musically to do with song, and I couldn't place it for a while either!

quite a long set today. no, that's not a complaint. Steam notwithstanding, this was quite fab -- Hope Urth gets to hear the replay.

I was repeatedly interrupted & missed most of it, too. So I hope I can hear the replay also.

here's a web page with a treasure trove of old radio spots, including Coke Pepsi and 7Up:

I was pretty sure it was going to be something good, considering how generally subpar last week was (75 conception set notwithstanding). That said, I have my yoga class tonight, so I'll probably miss the beginning at the very least. Going to try to set up to archive, but that may not work.
-
bonus track is Cinnamon Girl

I never even had a chance to tune in at work. Hopefully in for the replay too.

Disagree. I will forever associate this as a fond memory of the final game at the Stick. Thousands of people singing along. Many tears.

I think I'm with Alicat on this one, not just for the sentimental reasons mentioned, but 'cause the orchestration of this song sounds completely unique (although a case could be made that it borrows a bit from Spector)--thanks mainly to the vibes.
It may meet the basic definition (it's in more than 25% of the '69 sets in the DB, 12 of 41 if I counted correctly), but I have no problem hearing it two or three times a year.
And BOSx+1 to Spiral Starecase.
-
Who was just fab. Must revisit the Tommy CD tomorrow.
The mighty Zep. BOS 2

listening to replay this morning, and have abilitiy to listen with big speakers to Tommy. It's all about the Entwistle parts for me!
