seems like we just did '78 recently. (ETA: it was mid November, amazingly)
instant uber-LN: Thorogood.

I disagree, nice TOHK. One of the lesser played Thorogood songs. What I think you really mean is that you don't care for Lonesome George.

BOS1 Todd, even if "Can We Still Be Friends" is not exactly a rarity.

LOL, I was going to call in a LN myself. It was always tedious in my book, and that it gets played in a lot of 10 @ 10s doesn't help it any.

Somebody please destroy the Delaware Destroyers and George Thorogood. Please.

BOS1, The Band.

One of his more oft-played songs back in the day, but haven't heard it in awhile. And I really needed to hear this today. So BOS from me.

I liked him once upon a time. It may not be "Bad to the Bone" but I wouldn't call this song "lesser-played", esp on Classic Rock radio. He really only has 3 songs that get airplay.
The Band's live "The Weight" from Last Waltz feat the Staples is reasonably off-the-beaten path -- maybe the only semi-rarity we get today. "take a load off yo' fanny"
-
BOS1, The Band.
Wait a minute, Chester, I'll give a BOS for the Stapled Band. And I like that Todd song too.

Todd is something of a Guilty Displeasure for me. Something about him just doesn't quite work with my sensibilities.
-
WOS, Joe Walsh.
Damn this is a crappy song.

uber-uber-LN2: Mr Walsh.

Fair enough. I can accept that.
Joe isn't doing a lot for me though, although better than his late 70s Eagles output.

Bwahahaha!

I like it. Somehow, I retain a memory of listening to this in the car when I was tagging along on my dad's trip to the big and tall men's store.
-
disco cliche alert: Sat Nite Fever clip followed by "YMCA". Oy. Of course if that was meant as a sly comment on Travolta's sexuality, then VHM.
I think This. Whole. Set. is. So. Jive!
-
Proxy Bos for the Snipes, bruuuuuuuuce.
BOS2 from me, too.
-
BOS2 Brooooce. Not that rare either but "Badlands" is maybe in my Springsteen all-time Top 5.
and another unintentionally clever segue after YMCA, as Badlands is a gay bar.

I was thinking almost exactly the same...
-
BOSFRA, David Gilmour
-
This Gilmour tune always sounds like it belonged on The Wall.
-
Country Stones
-
BOS4, Far Away Eyes. One of my top 5 Stones fake country songs.
-
BOS3 Stones in country mode. Thank yew Jeezus!
-
Funny that we heard Broooce *and* the Stones just after FP made his exit from 'snipes.
BOS4 Van the Man on his own "Wavelength"

I'll second the BOS for Wavelength.

Did he quit the club again? Or just bail because they were playing one of the two bands he likes?
I've been trying to avoid fb during work.
ETA: BOS5, Van the Man.
-
Late '70's sets have really been heavy on the AOR since Annalisa left.
-
BOS4, Far Away Eyes. One of my top 5 Stones fake country songs.
The Stones have four other fake country songs? I can name a couple (Dead Flowers, Love In Vain) but what are yours?
-
Good commercials. And BOS for "Well All Right". Always liked this version.
-
Ring around the 'trinas!
wow, do they still make Porcelana? I used to buy Soft'N'Fade, but that's long gone.
LN3: Santana's unnecessary cover of "Well Alright"

"Country Honk", the countrified version of "Honky-Tonk Women"

I may have been exaggerating for effect. :o

Agree about its LN-ness, but I have to confess I didn't know this was a cover for about five years after this came out.

Nick Hornby would be proud.

But he plays the hell out of it -- BOS 6 for me. He is one of the great guitarists.

Nine of ten songs fit into the mainstream rock category, and the late '70's was characterized by eclecticism and innovation. This set did not represent that well (YMCA as a change of pace doesn't cut it).

Every set can't represent every aspect of a time period. This set did represent one aspect of '78 -- pretty much what I was listening to at the time (for better and worse). '77 and '78 sets rarely inspire me much, and I can't say this one was over the top great, but it was enjoyable. And no Boston! I mean, how bad can a '78 set be that doesn't have Boston? :P

Yeah, they didn't look back at Tom Scholz.

For a RR set that's not a theme, this is at about the 90th percentile.

indeed -- AL did *many* late-'70s sets that were almost all New Wave and some folks complained that there was no mainstream rock, so yer damned if ya do and damned if ya don't. Meanwhile it's clear that disco has been reduced to cameo appearances by overplayed classics (BeeGees, "YMCA", and the like).

Not saying it's a good or bad thing, but this set had no women. I wonder how often that happens.

I think "mainstream rock" is going to be the norm for this era. :-\

And anything older, too. Rarities will be even moreso.
