10 December 2008: it's 1977

[Tinka Cat]

Elvis is dead???

the deejay who read that Elvis is Dead bulletin started playing Leo Sayer's "How Much Love" before Dave ended that clip.  That song's a pop-candy fave of mine.

Oh my yes. I know we have some Sayer-haters here, but that whole LP is a masterful '70s-pop smorgasbord, thanks in no small part to producer Richard Perry.

I'm giving this BOS on the replay.  Even if the boogie don't believe in me.  My former softball teammate Adrian thinks of this as the ultimate coke recording (it does have a relentless, feverish quality to it).  HM to Q (Jaggerz connection, no?), cuz I hadda get up, hadda get down to it.

[Alicat]

I'll miss Thursday and Friday sets. Trip to Sacramento. I'll catch up Saturday. Have a great rest of the week!!!!!  aaack. Football picks.

Were you looking at me?  I've heard 4 Leo Sayer songs: really dig "When I Need You," kinda like "More Than I Can Say," and utterly despise "Long Tall Glasses" and "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing."  D = diploma, I guess.

But back on point, thanks for ID'ing the song that followed from the Elvis clip; I was curious.

And finishing with another rarity-if-not-bustout, Dave Mason, Mystic Traveller.

This was from a good LP, Mason played my college during this tour.

Yep, his popularity as a solo act was peaking around this time. Couldn't tell you what else he'd done since then.

TANC: Not 12 hours after typing the above sentence, was in the car driving into town to get a chicken and some cold remedies (wifey is illin'), and Rockline comes on the classic rock station in the car. Who's the guest? Dave Mason. I s**t you not.
