Bonus Track = Quicksilver Messenger Service "Dino's Song".  Once again the BT would have been a strong BOS contender had Dave been the one to play it.

Tip o' the hat to that Foghead, he could have picked "Eleanor"

Kudos to Annalisa for having "Elenor" as one of the choices :wink:

Satanic messages in Monkees songs?  Didn't hear it, but BOS for Traffic.


Huh? dave played the not-often-heard intro to "DB",

Davy: "what number is this?"
All: "7-A!"

For those who don't know the backstory: John Stewart wrote the song in a key that Davy normally didn't have the range for.  After several unsuccessful takes, an angered Davy asked the producer (Chip Douglas, IIRC) what take they were on.  (They had an intricate filing system for their takes.)  The producer and someone else in the studio, equally exasperated, shouted back "7-A" in unison.  Davy played it off with a joke, but it wasn't as gleeful as the song's coda would have you believe.

BIOS (Best Instrument of Set) goes to the bass player on "I Can't Quit Her."  Gonna have to look that one up, but whoever he is, he jiggles in and out of the pocket like big balls.

Jim Fielder was the bassist.  Al Kooper raved about Jim.  Here's the time I saw BS&T:
