Our tacky things, we put them on... again.

Hope Dave honors us with a breakout.  I'm guessing '60s or a theme tomorrow (haven't done a VT in a while).

Good to hear "Let Me Roll It" -- I dig that riff.  I remember listening to "Wings Over America" endlessly -- I think my aunt gave it to me.  But I did think he was saying, "You gave me loving in a common man".  I thought Paul was talking about some gay encounter he'd had.  Certainly colored my perception of the song as a 10-year-old, or whatever I was then.

BOS Macca, "Let Me Roll It". Amazing how well this LP holds up. Truly his artistic peak.

Yesterday someone called Dean on CG and requested "Helen Wheels", which he couldn't get his hands on -- he promises to play it today.

Wow, now here's a rarity, if not a bustout: Joe Walsh, Meadows.

That would be cool.  For all you etymologists out there, from whence cometh the term Hell On Wheels?

Ooh, BOS from me for Joe Walsh "The Meadow", great riffing.

Naturally, BOS for the Dan, a song I've tried to master on the guitar for years.  And VHM for the wildman Joe and the James Gang.  (Not the Gang?  Oh well.)

Wasn't it the slogan of a WWII infantry battalion? Sorry, can't recall which one, but I'm betting you know.

certainly not a bustout (I wouldn't even say rarity, but then I'm picky about such things) But sounding very nice today.

Ah, Shuggie and his Strawberry thang.

More HM for Shuggie Otis, though I still like the Brothers Johnson version a lot better.  I'm not fond of Otis' voice -- it's kind of a Bob Welch thinness to it.  Though I have to admit, the BJ's arrangement is quite the ripoff of this one.

Bustout within the limitations of my archive anyway.
