compare & contrast to Dave's '68 set on Fri, which will be hard to beat. And since Bob's on vacay, I suspect this week's Drive sets will be a tad less creative.

"Hi, I'm Archie Bell of the Drells, of Houston, Texas. And we don't only sing, but we dance just as good as we wanna."
Best Intro EVER. And BOS today.
-
inspiration for Grateful Dead's "Eyes of the World?"
-
P.S. Is there an actual dance maneuver called the "Tighten Up," or is it just an edict to get up, get into it, get involved?

"Hi, I'm Jerry Garcia of the Dead, of San Francisco, California. And we don't only sing, but we dance just as good as we wanna."
We interrupt this to say: Holy Sh!t! Demo version of "Hello It's Me!" If Bob were trying to top Dave, this would be the way to do it.

I assumed it was a local dance craze, tho' I've never actually seen it. But tighten up on the mondegreen now: it's "we dance just as good as we walk".

"Demo"? -- or the original Nazz version? the latter, I'd say.
"we're the Grateful Dead, and we dance just as white as we sing."

Great album, great band. Oh, to hear "We Love You Lil" on the radio once more!
-
Hey Gaz, Doug Dowson sez "Hi".
Thought I might be passing thru Sacto so I called him. Hoewever not only is he headed out for a week of camping on the coast, but my meeting got postponed also.

WOS: Kermit the Frog and Canned Heat, "On the Road Again." Unlistenable.

Oh stop -- Kermit's a MUCH better singer. Maybe Dave'll play "Rainbow Connection" in '79 today!
-
great segue we did at college radio back at UCSB, playing this song into Buffalo Springfield "Rock and Roll Woman" which has the same kind of droning shtick; blends seamlessly.

HM to Monty Hall just for being unexpected.

No. None. Grateful or otherwise :wink:

agreed, especially since he was once the spinner of the 10@10 Big Wheel.
BOS Steppenwolf, "Sookie Sookie" -- also unexpected.

VHM Hermann Hesse's favorite rock band.
Greg Kihn was just saying yesterday that this was a great band but people only know 2 or 3 of their songs. True for me I suppose.

Just because I'm gullible, I was not talking about the Dead (I know the respect they get around here :lol: ) I was talking about the lead singer, Al Wilson, who committed suicide.

absoulutely. "Classic rock" radio plays the 3 hit singles and that's it. "Monster", "The Pusher"... great stuff.

"Hello, I'm Johnny Cash."
It's a day for memorable intros here.
-
Wow! BOS "Folsom Prison Blues"
Who is this guy subbing for Bob? He is doing a great job. (although I say that because I have nothing against "On The Road Again")
-
BOS2 Mr Cash! Awesome.
Lance Niekro of the Giants is apparently a big Johnny fan... they played a different Cash song before each of his at-bats on Sunday.

AMG isn't of much help on this one:
After two big chart hits with "Goin' Up the Country" and an explosive version of Wilbert Harrison's "Let's Work Together," Wilson died under mysterious (probably drug-related) circumstances in 1970

I'd bet he's not picking the songs himself... at very least, the original database was compiled by Bob. I'm glad "Folsom" is still in there.

Hey Mike I forgot to say thanks for thinking of me with that ticket. I couldn't have gotten away for a night game, but I appreciated the thought.
Another BOS for "Sympathy For The Devil" Remember how this was used in Coming Home?

Awesome use of music in that film.
Sadly, you missed a Cards victory, tho' the Gigantes made it exciting at the end.

brief googling says a mystery, maybe OD.

I invented a drinking game for this song.
After everyone has had a couple & is loosened up, play "Sympathy..." and everyone has to try to be a perfect background singer when the woo-oo-oo's start. This is a lot harder than it sounds, with everyone trying it is sure be one of those things where it is really hard to keep a straight face. The last one to keep up the woo-oo-oo's wins.
-
wow, the Drive does '79 tomorrow too! I love it when we get 3 takes on the same year within a week.

A different website says he OD'ed on barbituates during a camping trip. RIP, Big Al. I still hate your singing voice, though.

he went "up the country"... and never came down.

That's closer to what I remember. I remembered something about a forest.

You were there too? Guess I shouldn't be surprised. Sarah & I were in our seats in 312. Pretty good game, could have had a much better outcome if Alex Sanchez had brought his glove without the hole in it.

we were in the very top row of 324. Mr Sanchez was the object of many jeers up our way.
