Wed 12/3/14: Dec 1995

LNs: Everclear, No Doubt, Corrective Soles, Oasis, SmashPumps, Kenny Wayne Shepherd

mild rarity: The Badlees "Fear of Falling"

WOS RHCPs "My Friends" -- a relative rarity but it's still the RHCPs.

Petty's "Waiting for Tonight" is also fairly rare -- I may actually give this a VHM. Ditto PJ, "I Got ID"

I'm guessing this is actually December 1983.

I don't think of "Undercover Of The Night" as being LN - if anything I think it's a bit underplayed.

LNs: Shocking Blue, CCR, The Band

BOS1 Zep "WI&WSNB"; BOS2 BS&T "And When I Die"; and holee crap it's a laura Nyro twin-spin with the uber-rarity-of-the-month, her "Captain St. Lucifer". Wow. BOS3.

wait -- triple-spin, with 3DN's "Eli's". BOS4.

VHM Steve Miller, "Your Saving Grace"

Zho Co-KAIR comes in thru the window. And another thematic connection -- he's followed by the Fab Four, "Slumbers/Weight/End"
