Stevie's "Too High". Arrived just too late for Ringo's little-heard "I'm the Greatest", which is a major across-the-board bustout.

OMGWTFLOL!!! "Carpet of the Sun", Renaissance!! Annie Haslam, one of the great forgotten female singers of the '70s.  Dude, it's GOOD prog rock!!!  BOS2 and a Bustout of the Month contender. I literally have not heard this in 30+ years.

I'm so glad you recognize this -- I thought I might be the only one. They were BIG on NYC prog-FM, but I've no idea where else they got airplay.

I'm just so glad I tuned in early today.  Very nice reward!

Pink Floyd Us And Them
Most boring song in the history of ever.

Good point.  I genuinely enjoyed the rest of this (Renaissance was new to me, and I loved it), just didn't feel moved to post.  :)
