A mild surprise, as it's only been a month since we last visited '69. But '73 is still MIA.

Nothin' but a heartache, baby!

damn, gotta drive to Sacto now, and I still don't have a radio in my car.  Have to catch the rest tonight or tomorrow morning.

Have a cheerful weekend y'alls!

Mmm, I really liked the Nixon -> Santana segue ... it definitely says something to me, though I'm not sure what.
Now I'm eight bits...

Nothin' But a BOS.  I pictured in my head Goldie Hawn and Byron Gilliam fruging to it with long fringe daishikis flowing.

I heard the African predecessor to "Jingo" on RadioParadise some time ago.  I think it's called "Jingo Lo Ba" and it sounds quite a bit more primal.  Not rock and roll, but interesting to here where the inspiration came from.

Anyone read what Dave was referring to in his blog yet? Pretty interesting--it seems that Nixon had a speech ready in case the first moon landing went awry and Armstrong and Aldrin died up there. Obviously the occasion to deliver it never arose. It was made public in 1999, but this is the first I'd heard of it.

Talk about your vote of confidence in the technology, but I guess they knew there were variables that couldn't be predicted so were ready for any eventuality.

Never heard it, but  quick Google suggests it's by a midwest psychedelic group called "Frost".  How 'bout that?

BOS for the Isleys.  They are great.

Aw, hug a Jew.  It's "Let's Get Together."  Too bad Jesse couldn't follow his own advice.  (Oh, wait, Dino Valenti of Quicksilver MS wrote this, right?)

Bet that was the vinyl, too. I wasn't paying attention.
