Argh!  I'm gonna miss it: my 1:30 meeting was *just* moved up to 1:00, so I have to bolt.

I was hoping for a 1976 set with "Silly Love Songs," fwiw.

Will check in on the boards later, but happy weekend to all!

Title: Pentagon Papers
Post by: ggould on February 11, 2005, 10:05:32 AM
I was the best man in friend's wedding back in the day, and he had worked with the defense team for Ellsburg, so as a thank you gift, he gave the people in the wedding party autographed copies (paperback) of the Pentagon Papers. It seemed like a cheap thing at the time, but perhaps not?

Great stuff so far.  Possible BOS to "I Just Wanna be Free," undoubtedly a favorite of "peacniks" everywhere.

Autographed by Ellsberg? If you still have it, it's worth something.

Nice to hear some fresh sound clips. Dave's been shopping on the web again!

I've noticed that he seems to be including fewer historical clips in general over the past few weeks--wonder if people were complaining or something? Fogheads can be so dumb sometimes.[/code]

jeez, and now we see Bob Novak outing a CIA agent, which should land the guy in jail, but no action from the White House.  Here Nixon and Kissinger want to put the PP leakers in jail.

Title: BOS Faces!
Post by: urth on February 11, 2005, 10:23:54 AM
Don't think this is a first-timer, but I don't think Dave's played it a lot. Great tune, and I think it was the Faces' only single to chart in the U.S.

Btw, did anyone catch the article on Ian McLagan in the Chron yesterday? Guess he played Slim's last night.

That article was great, I nearly posted the link yesterday. I assume you meant "Faces' only" Rod-fronted single, since "Itchykoo" and "Tin Soldier" charted as Small Faces hits in '68/'69.

BOS2: Temptation Eyes.

I always think this is the Guess Who, but it's really the Grass Roots doing their best Burton Cummings impression, right? I'm learning...slowly.

(If not I know one o' you guys will set me straight.)

HM GrassRoots, "Temptation Eyes", although they had pretty much run the sound-alike-hits thing into the ground at that point.

Post by: mshray on February 11, 2005, 10:38:26 AM
that's what I suspected from your query.

Whitburn has not made the distinction between the Small Faces & the Faces, so there are 3 entires with 3 different apellations:

Small Faces: Itchycoo Park, entered the chart on 1/13/68, peaking at # 16
Rod Stewart w/ Faces: (I Know) I'm Losing You, entered the chart on 11/27/71, peaking at #24
Faces: Stay With Me, entered the chart on 1/15/72, peaking at #17

which means Dave broke his own "we go by the charts" rule again.

Yep. The Faces were pretty much a separate band; they just happened to have three members in common. The Small Faces broke up for several months after Steve Marriott quit to form Humble Pie. Then Mac, Kenney Jones, and Ronnie Lane got together with Ron Wood to jam, and Wood invited Stewart in later. Not to mention that their sound changed completely. Small Faces were certainly a poppier, Mod band, while the Faces were a bluesier outfit.

Haven't seen it.  What's it called?  Is it a concert film, or something really weird?

not if the album came out in late '71... he does that with Steely Dan's Can't Buy a Thrill all the time, for one example.

It woulda been the FOURTH time in 2 weeks if he'd played that tune.

BTW, BOS Pink Floyd when they were still a cult band. But an obvious forerunner of "Run Like Hell", no?

I know he does it, but he always says he doesn't.   He has often said, on air, that "we don't go by the release date, we go by the charts here at 10 @ 10."

I'm just being picky, but I really appreciate consistency, especially when people are making up there own rules to start with.

I don't know that I'd include the Faces on (I Know I'm)Losing You. A couple of them played on it (Woody and Mac are the only ones credited), but that song was released on Every Picture Tells A Story, which was a Rod Stewart solo album, not a Faces record.
