a '60s Friday? or a 2nd '90s set this week?
ETA: the clue is "the Partridge Family had a #1 single" -- and "I Think I Lurve You" straddled Dec '70/Jan '71.
and it's '70. With Rosalie subbing again.
-
Per Jeffreys/Gory, "The year the Partridge Family had a #1 song".
-
"Immigrant Song" leads off. A/C
-
Yay, 1970, BOS, the Mighty Zep, though I am not a big fan of the wailing. Great guitar solo saves the day.
-

Yeah. Love it but pretty LN. One of the acoustic numbers from LZ III woulda been nice.
-
Green Eyed Lady: B/D
-
VHM Jackie DeShannon for Pepsi.
LN2: Sugarloaf.

LN2: Sugarloaf.
At least it was the LOOOOOONG version.
-
Shocking Blue: A/C+
-
uber-uber-uber-LN3: a godness on a muffin top. One of the most-overexposed oldies in history.
-
ABC (the song): B/D-
-
ABC (the song): B/D-
Indeed -- LN4. The Drive did '69 today and I said the same about "I Want You Back". Their first 6 hits are all LNs except for "Mama's Pearl".

But it's been awhile since we've heard "Ben".

or any of his early solo numbers -- i requested "I Wanna Be Where You Are" from AL many times to no avail.
nice surprise: "El Condor Pasa". BOS for the only semi-rarity we're gonna get, probably.

Giving it a C/B (not exactly caffeinated)
-
Big Yellow Taxi: B+/D+
-
LN5: Joni.
-
LN5: Joni.
She gets bonus points for the Annalisa giggle at the end. :o
-
BOS Joni Mitchell -- overplayed but I still love her voice on this song...
-
VHM Bobby Bloom. Will we get the Rodgers & Hammerstein coda?
ETA: Nope.
VHM Chicago, would that this were the entire "Ballet for a Girl..."
-
Montego Bay C/D-
-
Chicago: C/D-
-
BOS 2, Chicago.
-
Somewhat surprisingly, Chicago is getting a lot of Gsnipe love.
-
I'll give a BOS for Chicago. Anything not sung by Peter Cetera is pretty much a rarity these days.

somehow it doesn't feel as overexposed as Shocking Blue or Sugarloaf, tho' it probably is.
-
BOS 2, Chicago.
BOS me too...
-
BOS 2, Chicago.
BOS me too...
Whoa is that the way it normally ends? Sounded like some extra bits...
-
BOS Temptations: A/B+
-
WOS Tempts, one of my least-favorite tracks of theirs. Whereas "Cloud Nine" and "Runaway Child" felt like genuine explorations of social issues, this seems completely synthetic to me.
-
BOS 2, Chicago.

I thought so too, hmmm...
-
BOS for "Psychedelic Pshak". This has some personal relevance to me vis-a-vis the Stanford Band Shak...

Thanks for killing the vibe Mike. ;D
Let It Be: D/F-

it's the "Ballet for a Girl..." ending. Sounds like some weird record-company edit made for rock stations that didn't want to play the single but didn't want the whole LP-side either.
-
LN, yay, the Beatles. Though it really sounds good this morning. So I take it back.
-
LN 6 or 7: "Let it Be".
-
Another BOS for Paul Let It Be -- I never (so far at least) get tired of this one.
-
LN 6 or 7: "Let it Be".
You must admit Billy does provide some very nice organ.

sorry, it's like Berry Gordy sent out a memo: "write me a song with the word Psychedelic in the title, immediately!"
-
Big Yellow Taxi: B+/D+
I give it an F/F.

You can tell I'm so out of it. Why was Rosalie doing the backsell?

Renee's been off the past 2 days and Rosalie subbed. Apparently the new 10@10 model means anyone can fill in since DC is picking the songs anyway.

Does that mean we'll get classics when DC goes on vacay?
