always a great segue with Styx, "Fooling Yourself", in my college radio days.

I wasn't sure either. Sorta prog-jazzish, but definitely of the 70s. I think this might be a lifetime bustout for me--I don't believe I've ever heard this.

proxy of my bro, Chriss, and a BOS from me for one of the few B. Joel songs I can still get excited about!
"with his radical ties & his working class plans..."

This is no less astonishing than the fact the Gaz has never seen The Godfather!

Bustout #2 for the day: Bob Seger, singin' 'bout love jones, aka The Fire Down Below.
-
BOS #2 Seger, if only because of the shoutout to Moline IL, which is hard on the farm country that the Schroeder clan calls home base. Probably another proxy of my bro, in fact.

Bwahahaha! indeed, Turnstiles is an LP you should own, or at least have heard all-the-way-thru at least once.

I'll BOS BJ, too. That is one angry piano riff.
eta: and I appreciate the line(s) which implied about how just surviving is a noble cause, once you get past a certain age.

BOS2 "Tin" Lizzy, as the Oirish would pronounce it, don'cha know?

Nice to hear John Sebastian's "Welcome Back". And Gary Wright qualifies as most 70's of set, though "Dream Weaver" sure is played out. Even so, it was fun to hear him sing it with Ringo's All-Starr Band last summer.
-
My love is still alive for Dream Weaver.

Well put.

"Dreamboat Annie" is also sailing towards Katrinaville, but lovely (and short) enuf for a VHM.

My love is still alive for Dream Weaver.

Mickey Thomas fools around and gives Elvin Bishop a hit.
-
Dreamboat Annie features some banjo... could be a good theme set idea...? or could it?
How many pop/rock songs have banjo?
-

Be nice to hear some of Elvin's other songs some time. Stealin' Watermelons , Juke Joint Jump, or Goin' Fishin' maybe. He was quite popular around here prior to FAAFIL, not sure if that extended to the rest of the country or not.
OMG. The gales of November have come early. BOS The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

BufSpringfield, "Bluebird".
OMFG! BOS4 Mr Lightfoot -- really shoulda played the Edmund Fitz back-to-back with "Dreamboat Annie".
-
wow, the 70s AM Gold hits just keep on coming!
Gary Wright, Elvin Bishop and now Gordon Lightfoot.
And farther below, Lake Ontario, takes in what Lake Erie can send her.
eww, Great Lakes sloppy seconds...

the only other song that I remember hearing in NY was "Travelin' Shoes" from '74, but it probably wouldn't fly these days -- rather cartoonishly/violently misogynistic.

HAH!!
I believe I mentioned once that NRBQ did this for an encore occasionally, and if the audience booed or expressed any displeasure, they'd play it again.

I was thinking that too -- my love for it is well-known -- but it was a country crossover, and if TC meant pop/rock songs that are not primarily country tunes, it may not count.
-
Does any man know
Where the love of God goes
When the waves turn the minutes to hours?
One of my fave lyrics of all time, in a song chock full of them.
I called Annalisa & voted for 'The Great Lake They Call Gitcheegumee'.
-
dang me, one more BOS for Queen, which I have totally been into lately.
personal indulgence, check out the Cow Orker thread when you get a chance.
I gotta run to a meeting about my potential startup...
...great set, catch y'all later.

Freddie can't get no relief. Like, AS IF!

Well, I wouldn't nominate a song like Eric Weissburg's Deuling Banjos simply because it's an obvious choice and not the slightest bit rock. But I think Misty would qualify--it may have crossed over, but it made it to #14 on the Hot 100. Besides, he didn't specify any rules--yet. ;)

BOS5 Boz. What can I say? AL did a nice job overall.

A number of Niel Young tracks would qualify, though I can't name one at the moment. Of course, that's basically country crossover too. "Just A Song" off of Dave Mason's Alone Together would work, cool banjo noodling behind the chorus.

ah yes, rules. I was thinking non-country songs that pass the aesthetic test of this board, heh... :)
Would that allow Tony Orlando and Dawn in? I believe Yellow Ribbon has banjo -- and maybe some of their other old timey tunes do, too. some here are fans, some prob not.
How about Old Man, by Neil Young?

I was just scanning my iTunes list -- I don't suppose we can include The Kingston Trio... :P

I vote for Eagles' "Journey of the Sorcerer".

rule addition: we can open this up and include anything that charted in the Hot 100. Not sure if the Kingston Trio qualifies...?
How about Stampeders - Sweet City Woman

From Wiki on "Tom Dooley":
The Kingston Trio, Capitol, 1958. This recording sold in excess of six million copies, topping the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart, and is often credited with starting the "folk boom" of the late 1950s and 1960s. It only had three verses (and the chorus four times).
-
I vote for Eagles' "Journey of the Sorcerer".
or their "Midnight Flyer". Or about a third of their early catalog ;)
-
I vote for Eagles' "Journey of the Sorcerer".
I'd take their Doolin' Dalton, or maybe 21, off Desperado.

Sorry I had to cut out early, songs with Banjo is something I have been thinking about for a long time, but never thought the rest of y'all would be into it. I'm at the library right now, and suffering brain freeze, but one that immediately comes to mind is Buffalo Springfield, "Bluebird" (banjo solo on the bridge).
I'm sure I will think of more as I listen to my Zune on the way home today.

Diggin' around a bit on the internet, and there was a similar thread:
http://rateyourmusic.com/board_message?message_id=649920&board_id=1&show=20&start=20
Somebody mentioned LZ's "Gallows Pole" and I played it on iTunes to confirm... I really should have known that, big ol' zephead that I am.

Aaackkk! that's the other one that I was desperately tryign to recall, and failing to do so convinced me I was suffering from brain freeze. I was tantalizingly close to remembering it, and knew there was a great Zep tune in that category. But all I could come up with was "When the Levee Breaks", which may also qualify, but I knew it wasn't the one I was failing to remember.

here's another banjo tune: Robert Plant & Alison Krauss' version of Black Dog:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poiCzMOvkKk
They opened their shows with this T-Bone Burnett arrangement.
so we do have a variety of tunes, and although I'm not familiar with the Eagles suggestions, it looks like featuring a banjo in a song generall means it will on the kinder and gentler side... unless we open the voting up to include some bluegrass-y stuff! :)
I think some widely known country/bluegrass tunes would go well here: Foggy Mountain Breakdown for instance (and I hope to hear the legendary Earl Skruggs play it this weekend!). And what about Dueling Banjos? Everyone knows that, but not everyone's a fan ... eh, Gaz?

yes, awesome suggestion. Our HS glee club used to sing this. A Fan Fave.

that's great. I hope to see Steve Martin at Hardly Strictly, but his set coincides w so many other great ones. I'm sure he'll work some "King Tut" action into his set, since some of the Boy King's tchotchkes are just over yonder
