The Drive, week of 8/8/11
« on: August 08, 2011, 08:07:55 AM »
Mon 8/8/11: 1973

The ushers are sniffing eau de cologne. Hope I'm not magically bored.

Styx's "Lady" in the year of actual release; DP meet a woman from Tokyo.

BOS1 the Mighty Zep; BOS2 F.Mac.

"ah said 'excuse'..." Skynyrd meet LindaLou and find themselves in trouble.

BOS a Steve Miller rarity, "sha-ba-da-doo-ma-ma-ma ma".

unavoidable in '73: the Floyd. VHM Edgar Winter who looks really weird on that phone commercial. Macca hears the major was a lady.



Who - 5:15  
Styx - Lady  
Deep Purple - Woman From Tokyo  
Led Zeppelin - Over The Hills And Far Away  
Fleetwood Mac - Hypnotized  
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Gimme Three Steps  
Steve Miller - Shu Ba Da Du Ma Ma Ma Ma

damn, that transition from the smooth stylings of Bob Welch-led Fleetwood Mac into Lynnrd Skynnrd's Gimme Three Chords Steps was jarring.  I would rather have stayed hypnotized.

Idea for a set: bar room fights/brawls/tangles with the law:

Gimme Three Steps - Skynnrd
Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress) - Hollies
Bad Bad Leroy Brown - Jim Croce

If Joe Cocker came in thru my bathroom window I'd grab mah Glock, yo.  Book'm Danno: VHM "Hawaii Five-O".

C'mon. C'mon, now. TOUCH it, babe.  I had a hip young history teacher in high school who thought "I'm gonna love you 'til the heavens stop the rain" was one of the worst. lines. evah.

VHM the orig True Grit -- wish Bob'd played Glen Campbell instead of Dylan's "Lay 'Trina Lay"

any way you WOS it: Journey. They may hasten my Departure, but it'll be on a "Train in Vain".

BJ may be right -- maybe he *is* insane.

AC/DC get knocked out by American knockers, er, thighs.

BOS JCM-before-the-M, "Ain't Even Done Deciding What My Name Is"

Pete wants to bite and kiss you, boyz. And NOBODY thought that was the slightest bit gay in 1980??

Fri 8/12/11: 1971

Still Bill is still... uh... Bill.  And Carlos is still... The HOSE!  But he ain't got nobody to distend on. 

Mmmmmmmm... purple flowers....


I'll take non-holiday songs that mention Christmas for $1000, Elton.  BOS1 "Levon".

I heart Badfinger but "Day After Day" could use a 6-month moratorium.

OMFG! uber-BOS2 Alice C, "Undah Mah Wheels", honey!

awww... another dog song. BOS3 NGDB, bojanglin'.

Sorry, Bob, "Maggie May" -- even with the acoustic intro -- is utterly unnecessary this morning. or any other morning.

Proxy of GazWOS: Dave Edmunds. Bob's played this in both '70 and '71.

Bill Withers - Ain't No Sunshine 
Santana - No One To Depend On 
Tommy James - Draggin' The Line 
Elton John - Levon 
Badfinger - Day After Day   
Alice Cooper - Under My Wheels 
Nitty Gritty Dirt band - Mr. Bojangles 
Rod Stewart - Maggie May   
Dave Edmunds - I Hear You Knockin'   
Jethro Tull - Aqualung
