BOS Foghat, "Fool For the City".  Is it true the band intended their name to be pronounced, in the British way, "Foggit" (which sounds like, well, you know), rather than "fog hat"?

BOS2 Taking of Pelham 1-2-3.

and -- OMGWTFLOL! -- BOS3 Michael Murphy's lovely, unfairly-maligned "Wildfire".  Death symbolism was never so beautiful.

ETA: "Wildfire" mondegreen -- is he leaving "sod-bustin'" behind? or "South Boston"?

Wow, BadCo's rarely-heard "Call on Me".  BOS4 for novelty alone, I can't remember the last time I heard this, tho" I suppose it's played on DDT.

VHM Ms Ronstadt, "When Will I Be Loved"; proxy of shray Head East, "Never Been any Reason", which I have heard in the past week on both 'CDX and 'MIR.

This has been an impressive '75 outing -- even the Broooce track was a non-Katrina, "She's the One".

Oh Ho Ho, it's Pilot.  Like many a song from the Summer of '75 (see: "Wildfire"), something of a sledgehammer.

And we close -- come thudding to earth, actually -- with the egregiously overplayed "Sweet Emotion".  But a fine set nonetheless.
