and for the 2nd time this morning: "Smoke on the Water".

Hey Ringo, take a picture it'll last longer.

Zep take a dip in "The Ocean"; EJ's at the bottom of a glass.

ELP are still turned on; the Pinko Floyds have lots of "Time"

Joe Walsh finds his "Way", but Stealer's Wheel are "Stuck"

The preacher and the teacher -- LAWD! -- they a caution!

And we, er, climax with "Let's Get it On"

10. Jay Ferguson - Thunder Island

It's funny: I hadn't listened to The Drive's 10@10 for ages. For a long time their player didn't work on my office PC. But apparently they reconfigured  again and now it works.  Remember how I used to joke that whenever they did '78 they would either play "Thunder Island" or "Dreadlock Holiday" or sometimes both?  Well...
