Mon 8/1/11: 1988

Neil has a note for you; Tracy has a fast car; the Oils have a dead heart; the T-Birds have powerful stuff. VHM Rhythm Corps, "Common Ground".

uber-BOS Patti Smith "People Have the Power". If only, Patti, if only.

Tue 8/2/11: 1974

any major dude will tell you '74 is awesome.

VHM "Scarlet Begonias". BOses Seger, The Dan, and Jim Stafford's "Wildwood Weed".

Least necessary: Crapton takes aim.

Wow: big BOS4FRA JT's "Let it All Fall Down", from a very underrated LP, Walking Man.

[RGMike]

Wed 8/3/11: 1991

usual usupects: TP, Marc Cohn, Squeeze, Crowded House, School of Fish. This ABB ("End of the Line") is NTM, I think.

VHM B.A.D.

eek: WOS Extreme, "Hole Hearted".

BOSFRA Ned's Atomic Dustbin, "Happy".

Thur 8/4/11: 1978

Rob at his best: Todd, T.Heads, EC, PG, Kinks, and rarity-of-the-week contender, Genya Ravan's remake of "Back in my Arms Again". And a Cars rarity too -- "I'm in Touch With Your World", one you never hear.  This beats AL's '78 set yesterday.

Broooce takes me out behind the dynamo. Swoon!

I kihnt take Greg Kihn, but "Remember" is also pretty rare.

Fri 8/5/11: 1968

Rob has wisdom and knows what to do.  Traffic, the 'oo in the queue, Otis is hard (to handle), Cream wear white and the Doors linger on Love. I think I like it fine... so far. 

Frankliy, I'd prefer Ree-Ree's "The Weight" to the Band's.

Do it Again, Street-Fighting Man!

BOS the Rascals' fantabulous "People Gotta Be Free". 'nuf to move a mountain, make a blind man see.

Holee crap: I. Ron Butterfly!  It's only 7:32 so I'm guessing this is the looooong version.
