Thur 1/24/13: 1973

"Higher Ground", "D'yer Mak'er", "Kodachrome" to start. All various shades of LN.

As is "Time" by the Pinko Floyds. Ditto the 'oo, "The Real Me".

Woulda made sense to play "Photograph" back-to-back with "Kodachrome", no?  VHM Ringo -- and Richard Perry. A career peak for both.

Sknyrd takes 3 steps. Ah said "Excuse".

EJ: croc rock makes his cock rock.

BOS "Free Ride", best of a mostly-overexposed lot today.  This was straight off the DC/RR template.

Oy: Bob plays Orleans' "Dance With Me" in '73, as he so often annoyingly does.

Stevie Wonder - Higher Ground 
Led Zeppelin - D'yer Mak'er 
Paul Simon - Kodachrome 
Pink Floyd - Time   
The Who - The Real Me 
Ringo Starr - Photograph 
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Gimme Three Steps 
Elton John - Crocodile Rock 
Edgar Winter - Free Ride 
Orleans - Dance With me

BOS2 the Byrds doing Dylan

uber-uber-uber-LN Cream.  Take yer dried-up seed and skedaddle, Crapton.
