proxy of GazWOS, iirc.  I love how '60s sets were once rare and now '68 & '69 are the most frequently visited years on the wheel!

Yeah, hitting one 60s year every blessed week is a good thing. Me likey.

Is this Johnny Winter in the Tune No. 2 slot? I'm not familiar with it, and would guess it's a bustout on KFOG if not across the board.

That's as good a guess as either of us can muster, ah reckon.  Bringing black folks and albinos together!

"If all this should have a reason, we would be the last to know."  HM to "Rock Me," but this set really is microgenre-specific to my ears.

OMGWTF!!!  uber-BOS3 BS&T covering Traffic's "Smiling Phases". This really shoulda been a single.  And this is another monster LP that Dave tended to ignore, relative to its success.

No love for this one from me. It's the one Steppenwolf song that I never got much out of--just seemed like it was covering old ground. WOS.

This BS&T tune on the other hand is another that's new to me, but I am digging its jazzy breaks. Safe to say this never made the Top 40.

Thanks! I'm hoping we can keep an ongoing photographic diary of the progress of the building. We've been jokingly referring to it as "the cheese palace" for some time but I cribbed the Spanish version from a message I got via FB.

If of you who are FBfriends want to have a look, the album is here:

And if you're not yet one of my pals, shoot me a message and I'll friend ya.

No, I just wanted to know what album it was on.

The song got its share of prog-FM play, but a NYC Top40 station, WMCA, started playing it as if it were a single just as "Spinning Wheel" was dropping down the chart, in an attempt to influence Columbia, I think. But the label went with "And When I Die" instead.

Yeah, but I suspect that at the time this was recorded ('68 or '69), they had at best 8 tracks to work with in the studio, so there was a lot of bouncing of tracks going on. That is, recording several parts on individual tracks, mixing them down to one track, then recording several more tracks, and repeating the process. This enabled them to get a lot of information onto the tape, but things could get muddy in the process.

BOS nonetheless, and big ups for the l-o-o-o-o-o-o-ng version. As AL said last week, "whaddaya think this is? AM radio?"

Despite a sluggish start, this turned out quite OK. AL rules in the '60s, as always.
