I had to miss Little Steven's show last night. Bummer.

It's been an interesting if not emotionally draining weekend. I think I'm actually glad to be at work right now.

Kill me. Kill me now.

"Second Hand News", indeed -- this will have to work hard to top the Peak's '77 set earlier today.

early BOS to Parsons "Breakdown"

So, where were you the first time you heard Boston's "Foreplay/Long Time"?

I was 14, spending the summer as a hired hand on my uncle's farm.  My older city cousin & I were in the 1970 Mustang GTO of the one other hired hand my uncle used, and he had just gotten this 8-track.  We'd heard "Peace of Mind" on the radio, and figured this album might be okay.  

As the youngest, I was relegated to the back seat (not normally very pleasant in a Mustang), but when this came blasting out of the speakers I was completely transported.  After that, wherever we went, I always volunteered for the back seat as long as they promised to play this at full volume as soon as we got rolling.

I'm a bit underwhelmed so far. Standard-issue '77. But I've been spoiled by 2 superior (i.e. surprise-filled) sets in one day, so Dave'll really have to push the envelope to grab me from here on in.

if ONLY Dave'd play either of those...

But here's CSN. This set is now officially heading into tedium.

"Madison Ave Man" -- Greg Kihn?  BOS for novelty alone; a breakout, methinks.

Wow, for shear take-me-back-to-the-day, Boston + Ram Jam + Fleetwood Mac makes for a real evocative set.  Not the most creative mind you.  But evocative.

Actually it's jsut called "Madison Avenue".

Maybe Dave is just trying to show that he doesn't discriminate against competing morning show deejays.

when I think about how tough and cool he was on the first Jeff Beck album, to where he's gone... words fail me.  He's kind of like a male Cher.

But of course ABBA never pretended to have rock'n'roll cred. And neither did Cher, come to think of it.
