Started with the Moodies "Never Comes the Day", which would be more meaningful if Dave hadn't played it last week.

and here's "Space Oddity" in the year of its original release.

and here's another Dave repeat from last Friday: "Suspicious Minds". Still one of the great pop singles.

Jingo sounding good.  

I fnally get in before 8:00 & wouldn't you know it, my computer freezes up & then won't restart & it takes me until now to get back to normal.  I swear if I'd just come in at 8:30 this wouldn't have happened (or if Bob was doing an 80's set)

I much prefer it to the Doobs version, or maybe that's because I now know that Jeff Baxter is a Repugnican.

OMG! BOS3 "Delta Lady". This was a NYC FM staple back then, now it's rarely heard.  He loves her soft and fertile delta, nudgenudge winkwink.

Joe Cocker, from Mad Dogs & Englishmen.  I saw this film when it came out, as a double feature with Yellow Submarine.  My dad says that, at 32, he was by far the oldest person in the theater, and of course my brothers & I were the youngest.

actually this was the orig studio version from his '69 LP.

WOS 3DN's "Try a Little Tenderness", an unnecessary white re-tread of the Otis Redding arrangement.  I'd've never guessed from this song that they'd have the kinda career they did. Luckily their singles improved, starting with "One".  

Saw some trivia recently that said Nilsson got the opening piano bit for that song from a busy signal when he was trying to call some girl.
