R.I.P. Jimi.  I often wonder how much he'd have changed the world if he'd stuck around.

This set has been heavy on psychedelic boogie--George Baker, Fleetwood Mac, Buddy Miles, the song that preceded S&G.

I have to post my BOS for Creedence -- maybe it doesn't fit with many of the other songs in this set.... but it's one of my all-time faves still.

they just don't make great horn breaks like that anymore.  'tis a pity.


Very good point.  Our only hope for forestalling the death of brass in rock is that John Mayer discovers it.

you dat-n-dat-n-dat-n-dah!  Burton Cummings, font of profundity.


This was another one of those that was massively popular on 3WS in Pittsburgh but which I've barely if ever heard on the radio since leaving.  Others in this group include "Love Is Blue" and Derek's "Cinnamon." I've actaully not heard the latter since leaving for college in 1991.

6.   Crow - Cottage Cheese (vinyl)


This would have been a bigger hit -- and spared Crow from one-hit-wonder status -- if they'd given it a sensible title.  How the fuck do you know to request "Cottage Cheese" on the radio?  Same thing with the Monkees' "Tapioca Tundra" and a couple hundred other immaturely titled ditties.

Ah, Derek.  As you may have known: He was Scottish, and originally recorded as Johnny Cymbal, his 1963 hit "Mr Bass Man" is one of my earliest music-on-the-radio memories, and (TANC) I just heard it the other day on KOMY.  "Cinnamon" struck me as very Tommy Roe/Andy Kim, but was a sizeable hit in NYC -- the follow-up "Back Door Man" (not the Doors tune) got some NY airplay as well.  Per Whitburn, he died in 1993.

Shakin' All Over sure is from vinyl.


shakes in the knee-bone? quivers in the thigh-bone? Poor Roger -- he had Restless Leg Syndrome!  If only he'd known.
