This may be the last set I get to participate in the discussion in real time for awhile. Monday's my last day, but I have no idea if I'll be able to spend much time at my desk or not, what with paperwork and exit interviews and all.
So 1970 is a good way to go out, I think.

"The war is done," Christie sing in your general direction. :) (BOS1 to "Yellow River.")

This may be the last set I get to participate in the discussion in real time for awhile.
And may I take this opportunity to say: much much good luck in the Portland endeavor. Your presence will be missed, bub. Wish it had been possible for us all to get together for margaritas before you leave.
I'll be out of the loop for most of next week, in terms of real-time posting, as I have a work conference in San Jose, Mon thru Thurs. Not happy about it, given the price of gas.
BOS1 Christie..

25 or 6 to 4. My fave Chicago song ever since I was in high school, and Terry Kath's best guitar solo on record.

Good luck and best wishes. I haven't been participating much lately but have been lurking. Hope you can jump back in soon and keep us posted on your new happenings.

Echoing Mike's wishes, Jim. Safe travels, and let us know when you're settled in to the new sitch.
Mike - Caltrain not an option? That's how I attended a conference in SJ some years ago.

Was that a bit of the Inna Gadda da Vida drum solo there behind Dickie, before Shakin' All Over faded in?

I am sure I will not disappear from here entirely (and eventually I hope to be as frequent a participant as I've always been). I'll need to keep some of my local routines just to ease the transition to my new situation, so I imagine I'll post something in a week or two (and I could pop in on Monday for a bit, too).

I'm feeling seditious today, so I'm hoping Dave will end this set with the Airplane's "Mexico."

Dude, I knew we could count on you.
Btw, I learned while reading Nick Mason's memoir (Pink Floyd drummer) that the Floyd was originally called the Tea Set.

Local connection: the cardinal who signed the decree was William Levada, who I believe came from the SF diocese. For shame....
-
Zappa, yea!
indeed! a peachy BOS4 from me.

Michael McKean has a very intersteing Bio on IMDb. His dad worked for RCA & was one of the founders of Decca records. His drama teacher at NYU was Olympia Dukakis. And his ancestor Thomas McKean signed the Declaration of Independence.

and since I crap all over Eric so often: BOS5 D&TD.

About 10 years ago I was at LAX waiting for flight back to Oakland. Michael McKean was sitting in the waiting area for that same flight, reading a trade newspaper called "Zoetrope." It was definitely him, but I didn't bother him and it didn't seem anyone else recognized him.

Hard to imagine anyone improving on Jimi, but Eric and Duane did a mighty fine job....

Wow $2.88 for a streo LP!

I loved browsing the Tower bins.
-
$2.88 for a Ringo recording?!, isn't that what they go for now? ;)
-
Boz & Quicksilver for $2.88! WooHoo! Break out the Mountain Dew!
EJ slows the pace a tad. Well, more than a tad.

Quite the satisfying set.

LOL!!!
amazingly, Beaucoups of Blues (released in '70, and I assume the LP being referenced in the Tower ad) is $9.99 new/$7.74 used on amazon.com -- I figured it'd be closer to $2.88!
-
I'm feeling seditious today, so I'm hoping Dave will end this set with the Airplane's "Mexico."
I'm going to take a big fat guess (not knowing the answer yet!) that this didn't happen! Good idea though!

Another BOS (and another bustout!): Derek & the Dominos, Little Wing.
Derek is Eric!
Let's not forget Duane Allman, who really makes this song transcendant!

One of my very favorite actors--even without the Spinal Tap connection. He's such a chameleon--he can assume all sorts of characters. One of my very favorites was a guest role he had on The X Files where his character switched bodies with Mulder. He was both dispicable and totally hilarious all at once. One of the most creative scripts I can recall on that series, and that's saying a lot.

Bonus: Sly, "TY(FBMEA)"
