Another not too shabby set imho.  

It may come as a surprise to y'all...especially considering how much the last 3 songs (Manfred M, Nazareth & Thin Lizzy) are classic rock staples...that the only songs in this set which appear in my Db more than twice are "Dream Weaver" & "Love Rollycoaster".

so which is worse, being 'wrapped up like a deuce' or 'cut loose like a deuce'?


It's "revved up", at least in the Springsteen version. Which makes sense, a "deuce" being a sports car.

add the BCR's to the list...but still, each of these three has a frequency of only about twice per year.

So it's 9:30, I just happen to flip on KFOG and what's playing but Blinded by the Light, same Manfred Mann version that we heard this morning and we're going to hear again in about an hour. You think someone'd check these things, y'know.

Here's the setlist:

06/18/2007 - Monday....A spin to...1976!!!
 
1.  Todd Rundgren - Love of the Common Man  
2.  Doobie Brothers - Takin' it to the Streets  
3.  Gary Wright - Dream Weaver  
4.  Peter Frampton - Doobie Wah (BEST OF SET!!)  
5.  Ohio Players - Love Rollercoaster  
6.  Boz Scaggs - It's Over  
7.  Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Blinded By the Light  
8.  Nazareth - Love Hurts  
9.  Thin Lizzy - The Boys Are Back in Town  
10.  Bay City Rollers - Saturday Night  
 
BONUS TRACK:  Bad Company - Silver, Blue & Gold

Dang, can't believe I missed the bonus track, about which my affection is well documented.

well, we're both partially right on this one.  It is 'Revved up' in the Manfred Mann version, and 'Cut loose' in the Springsteen.  Nowhere is it 'Wrapped up' which has been a mondegreen for me up to this week.

Looks like the Sat marathon is going in Mon-Fri order again.
