John's only #1 hit in the '70s.  There is something massively wrong with that.

well, y'know, he stopped recording in '75...

Really?  I didn't know that!   ::)  Just amazing to me that it was that and not, say, "Imagine."

Finally something I can BOS: one of my very favorite Stones songs.  The guitar work blows me away, as does its interplay with the piano.

I'd've thought the Jorma was a fave of yours.  But indeed, this is a post-Main Street highlight of '70s Stones.

in retrospect, it is quite amazing that "Imagine" peaked at #3, when Macca was having one #1 hit after another throughout the decade. Silly love songs sell better than politics.

VHM Burt Reynolds in the orig Longest Yard.

Speaking of Reynolds, I saw Harold Reynolds doing color on TBS's Sunday baseball this week -- someone actually hired him after his ESPN debacle?

"Call Me Debris." 

ROTFL!  Line of the week, so far.

ooo! BOS5 Stones, "Tahm Waits fo' No One". But Tom Waits waits for me.

My mother bought the Stones'  "It's Only Rock And Roll" LP for me back in 74, but I didn't like rock back then (my mother was so much cooler than me.. still is) and I think I sold it for a dollar at a garage sale. 

... and in keeping with that streak, my older brother gave me Aerosmith's "Rocks" album which I traded for a Bay City Rollers' record. 


good Stones song

BOS Stevie; VHM the J-5 on backing vox. "the nightmare that's becomin' real life" -- too true.
Nice. I neglected to tune in. Waiting for a classic now.

America loves a good forgiveness story; ya just gotta lay low long enough.  If Marv Albert can work again, so can Harold Reynolds.
