More Marcia --> Macca, "Smile Away".  BOS2

One of my requests! Woot! (Guess that means Yours Is No Disgrace is probably off the table though.)
Let's get right to it.

Nixon's price/wage freeze --> Rod's feeling up Mary on the ferry.  Well, we avoided "Maggie May" at least.

A pal of mine used to do a dead-on imitation of Fonda in that ad: "We've got Viewmaster from JEE-AY-EFF..." Guess you hadda be there.

I just really don't need to hear Roundabout for the umpteenth time.

Oopsies.  Not surprising. Today's kids pretty much only know this one song by Yes.

Song #9 started at about 10:35 (on the stream anyway) so we have time for a 10-minute bustout if she wants to do it. Here's hoping.

My BOS picks are Jonathan Edwards, Macca, the Stones (yes, really), and Shuggie...so far.

Just noticed... Dave played this about a dozen times -- always for 1974!  Annalisa has
spun it just once before (also in 1971).  Wiki says it was released in 1971, not 1974.

I have fond memories of my Viewmaster.  These kids with their Oculus Rift, they think
they're so "innovative"...  ha!

I was disappointed that she didn't play The Brothers Johnson version, since we recently lost Louis Johnson, but then I realized that would've been a different year.  I know it's not the original, but I like it better due to the bass line.
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!

per AL: "Roundabout" wins BOS in a landslide.  Sher also posted "Yours is no Disgrace" on FB.
