And BOS3--Dylan's sublime Mozambique, from Desire. Can't recall if this is a bustout or not, but I wouldn't be surprised.


he's played it, but it's certainly a rarity. I recall we discussed how it was on it's way to being Dylan's biggest hit in years, and then violence (a coup?) in Mozambique led radio stations to drop "Mozambique".


I'll check, but I'm pretty sure it's in the Db only once.

Ooooh, another BOS for Jimmy, "Havana Daydreamin'"


Buffett when he was still good. Before he started singing about margaritas and cheeseburgers.
Let's get right to it.

Now this one is a bustout, Dave's never even played anything off of this album to my knowledge.

Yep, loaded with nuggets of all stripes. Very fine indeed.

Was John Batdorf in Batdorf & Rodney?

BOS of the week so far: Bobby Z. "Mozambique".

OMFG! Dylan "Mozambique"!! BOS4.

A personal favorite despite, or because of, the dumbness of the lyric.  One can only wonder why they bothered making up a word ("shang-a-lang") only to follow it with an *off-rhyme* instead of an actual one!  But kind of a sledgehammer that it turns up; I associate it with a couple goodbyes as I was leaving Boston in January '03, and I'm heading back up there to see those same people tomorrow.  "Baby, I'd really like to stay . . ."

only 11 days since we had an OTD set from this year.


I'm sure when you tell me I'm going to go "D'OH!" but what's OTD?


"On This Date", I'm guessing.

If no one else will, I'll VHM Mr Seger.


HAHAHA Dave predicted Congressman Foley's debacle: "Turn the Page"!

Listening on Saturday morning to all these election year bits between Carter & Ford, and recalling that this was also one of the closest elections in history (one which came down to Ohio, like the last one).  Wondering 'what if?'.

What if Ford had won in '76, and he was the one who suffered through the summer of '79 with the spike in petrol prices, shootings on the gas lines in suburbia, & then the Iranian hostage situation that fall and all through the campaign of 1980.  It seems very likely that any incumbent and their party would then lose badly in 1980.  Thus no Reagan in 1980, and he would simply have been too old after that.

ah, one can dream anyway...

I misheard "Havana Daydreamin'" as "A Vanity Dreaming."  Hrm.

as they say, "be careful what you wish for"...  8 years of Mondale followed by 8 of Dole, perhaps? and THEN 8 of Clinton?  McCain would be in his first term now.
