The Drive, 11/18/08: 1986

I'll pass up a Bob '86 set to spend the hour with JJ's '60s on KPOO.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Inessential set, though "Freedom Overspill" was welcome and gets default BOS.  HM to "Don't Get Me Wrong"; WOS to Crapton's "It's in the Way That You Use It," perhaps the least essential song of the entire decade.

I didn't miss a thing:

Tom Petty - Breakdown (live) 
Pretenders - Don't Get Me Wrong 
Eric Clapton - It's in the Way That You Use It 
Bon Jovi - Wanted Dead or Alive 
Phil Collins - Take Me Home 
Iggy Pop - Real Wild Child 
Steve Winwood - Freedom Overspill 
Van Halen - Love Walks In 
Heart - These Dreams 
Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run (live) 

Bob starts and ends with live tracks. And yet the set iself is lifeless. But contrarian that I am, the Crapton is one of the few '80s tracks of his I can stand; its use in Color of Money may be a factor there.
