ho-hum Eagles ("Take it to the Limit") followed by lovely Cocker ("You Are so Beautiful"). A sleepy start, certainly.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Hope Gaz is tuned in for "Bad Time".  Proving Christgau's adage that a great single can come from the unlikeliest of sources. (I think his actual words were something like "any idiot can make one great single".)

ETA: and speaking of, "S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y! Night!"

Makes me think of "So I Married an Axe Murderer."
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!

"Over my Head", Ms McVie at her loveliest with Fleetwood Mac (the Cadillac of hamburgers).

I'm gonna keep using that line until somebody laughs.

"As gentle as a boiterfly," that crazy Lorelei.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

Brother Lou would have won BOS if Bob had bothered to play all of "You'll Never Find."  What's this meathead metal shit he went with instead?  These kinds of highway celebrations make me long for a cubicle.  Yuck.

It's Crankypants Thursday!

BOS2 ARA, "Third Rate Romance".  A great lyrical vignette rendered in 3 minutes, and a total flashback.

You'll have to wait for a '76 set for that. But Token did a fab cover of it on last nite's South Park rerun.
