This one last ran as a classic in December of 06, originally aired January 28, 2004.

BOS ABBA I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do.

Oh, and we heard Steve Miller's Serenade and Dreamboat Annie from Heart in between the EWF and ABBA.

Second time in four days for that one, after it appeared on this weekend's Casey Countdown.

VHM to ELO, which I mostly missed due to yet another awkward and strained conversation with my brother (we're not close).

A big meh to BTO, Lookin' Out for Number One. Fake jazz, as our long-lost compatriot Rasztrelnikov would have undoubtedly said.

I was digging the fake-out jazz, esp after Leon Russell, whom I never really "get."  He sounds drunk to me.

But Bowie's STAY -- now we're talking!

yes, I punish Stacy w the AT40 shows every weekend, and we both cringed and winced through this same old-timey ABBA sax-fest this past weekend, too.

OK, here's my overall BOS: Bowie's sublime Stay, with the snarling Strat of Earl Slick leading the charge. Love the groove on this one. Props to bassist George Davis, too.

BOS to Bowie's "Stay."  Which sums up my feelings toward my current companion a little too well.

It's ALIIIVE!  VHM Frampton, just because it takes me back with such immediacy.  Also, very pleasant tune.

BOS, Bowie.

CB, but you knew that.

I really really wanted a van when I was a teenager.  Used to buy van mags (whither the van mag?), make plans, etc.  Fortunately, muscle cars brought me to my senses.

We all did--c'mon, a bed on wheels, what teenager with raging adolescent hormones wouldn't want one? Of course, then gas went up over a dollar a gallon and they became somewhat less practical. :)

oh yeah, you did mention that.  I will seek it out.   I can probably handle Connie over Agnetha, Frida, Bennie and Björn.

meant to mention yesterday this was the 2nd '76 in a row where Dave played that Vanessa Redgrave clip in the wrong year.
