Sanford & Son --> "Honky Cat". At least we were spared "Rocket man"  ;)

More power pop with Raspberries, Go All the Way (RGMike is typing über-LN right this second)

Could Big Star be next?

ETA: Big Star or Todd with Couldn't I Just Tell You next?

Nicely played!  Would love to hear Couldn't I Just Tell You next.

Not sure if California Man is a bustout--I have vague recollections of it coming up at least once before (either the first AL regime or RR with someone else steering the boat--Dave never played it so far as I know.)

indeed, AL played it once, apparently (as a TOTHK in 2011)

BOS5 Randy Newman "Leave Your Hat On" -- this is turning out quite wonderfully.

All in the Family! --> Slade, Mama Weer All Crazee Now

Two songs in a row that were later covered in the '80's to more fanfare (at least Stateside)

Was that a demo? Sounded like just piano.

Bowie to close us out with Ziggy & the spidahs.  BOS7.

This has been a rarity-packed delight.

David Bowie, Hang on to Yourself

Anyone else feel that Ziggy Stardust should get more consideration as the best ever rock album?

Mini-power pop set and now mini-glam rock set. 'Tis a good day, indeed.

Excellent album/band (I saw them live), but...no.

You might be on to something there. Randy re-recorded a lot of his songs in 2003 for an album called The Randy Newman Songbook Vol. 1, which featured only Randy's singing and piano playing. So maybe she played that version. The Sail Away version prominently features snare drum and slide guitar (Ry Cooder!).

Yeah, I thought it sounded different too. Thought it was just bad earbuds.
