Title: 16 Aug 2010: Change of plan - it's 1977
Post by: RGMike on August 12, 2010, 12:48:20 PM
AL suddenly posted last nite that she'd changed her mind -- "Local Scene: the '70s" will be Friday. Meanwhile since I just found out about this, there are already 47 request comments for '77 so I won't even bother at this point.

aaack! Yes past their sell-by date (WOS1), with Rush promised as well (WOS2). Not an auspicious start, AL.

Dang, what a rockin' Yes start!  Hope Rich is hearing this.  We saw both Yes and Rush within the last few weeks.

Agreed.  But I'm on board with all this stuff.  Even Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Closer to the heart attack? sheesh. the aforementioned Rush with the aforementioned WOS2.

I repeat the refrain I sang during the Morey era: just once in a '77 set, could we follow Elvis death clips with an actual, y'now, Elvis song?

Yay for Rush.  Even if you don't like Geddy's voice, you gotta appreciate his bass playing.

And HM for Queen.  Didja hear Brian May on "Fresh Air"?  He was great, and gave some really interesting facts about the way "We Will Rock You" was recorded.

Freddie wants to, er, rock you. Why do you think they called the band "Queen", dude?

Without cheating and looking at allmusic, I'll pose the question: Did Elvis release anything in 1977?

yes -- his hit "Way Down" (an underrated/underplayed tune) was in the Top 40 when he died, and he also had "Moody Blue" earlier that year.

OK - I hadn't realized "Way Down" was from that late in his career. So yes, that would be a fitting song to play.
