Er... no.  Biden runs off at the mouth in a harmless way. Agnew was a right-wing hitman, reading speeches written by Pat Buchanan. BIG difference.

Kinda reminds me of Edgar Winter's "Free Ride".  Great song, but the drums in particular are really compressed.

Jimmy Guercio (Chicago's producer for their first half-dozen or so records) was not exactly George Martin. I'd hope they've done some remixes on their early records by now, but I don't know for sure.

  10.  Jimmy Cliff - Wonderful World, Beautiful People

BONUS TRACK:  Band of Gypsies - Them Changes  (RIP Jimi Hendrix 9/18/70)

Glad to see the Partridges win BOS and here's another Dave-vs-AL observation: as much as I loved Dave and appreciated the off-the-wall stuff he occasionally dredged up, it always seemed to me there was a lot of other stuff he was afraid to play. I think Dave was basically a non-confrontational soul, and he really dreaded having to deal with complaining Fogheads saying this, that, or another song "doesn't belong on 10@10"-- and justifiably, as there was a time when playing ABBA made the phones light up with complaints. (I've already told the story about the obnoxious guy who called him up to say "Soul Patrol SUCKS!!").

AL, on the other hand, isn't afraid of anybody, I don't think.

I mean, do you think station mgmt would have actually preapproved "Ca Plane Pour Moi"?
