Listened on the replay; one of Bob's best in a while. BOS Boz, tho' I still say laying down in Georgia pine cones sounds rather uncomfortable.

TANC: I missed this thread but must have gotten a vibe, as I spontaneously decided on the walk home from work tonight to listen to some Boz, including "Slow Dancer."  ("Harbor Lights" is especially nice night walking music.)

Fri 3/12/10: 1978

Blues Brothers - Soul Man 
Rolling Stones - Miss You 
Heart - Heartless 
Cars - All Mixed Up 
Steve Martin - King Tut 
Bob Seger - Hollywood Nights 
The Who - New Song 
Genesis - Follow You Follow Me

Can't argue with a set that has "King Tut", and the 'oo tune is a rarity. The rest: same-old, same-old.
