Title: 27 June 2013: it's... 1975
Post by: RGMike on June 27, 2013, 08:03:25 AM
"Pet Rocks & Mood rings" sez RR.

2nd '90s-less week in a row. 

'75 was one of DC's most "Oldies 103.7"-centric years ("Killer Queen", anyone?) so if we manage to avoid "Sweet Emotion" and "Ballroom Blitz" we might do OK.

It's 10:00 but we must suffer thru "Sex & Candy" first. Feh.

Title: Re: 27 June 2013: it's... 1975
Post by: urth on June 27, 2013, 10:35:36 AM
The Bruce and Zep tunes are both relative rarities -- Jungleland shows up twice in the Shraytabase and Down By the Seaside just once. .

Meanwhile the Doobies tune has several.

Corinthian leather always gets a VHM, Ricardo.

This is their song that draws inspiration from Vonnegut, no?

BOS3? 4? Losing track.

Yup. the title is a Cat's Cradle reference.

This is the 2nd time this year (at least) that Renee has played "3rd-Rate  Romance". But I'm not complaining. BOS6.

Me either. For a song that comes off as kind of trashy on its face, it's pretty complex in the way the rhymes are constructed.
