Woohoo!  Pre-emptive 10 way tie.

easy as 123
and any fool knows
a dog needs a home
a shelter
from pigs on the wing

Thanks for clearing that up, Geoff. I got a phone call about 10 minutes ago and didn't realize it was 10 until 10:03, grabbed my cans and heard the J5. I'm thinking "Dammit--missed the intro. Soul Patrol? 70? Motor City Revue?"

1970 is just fine by me, given the scarcity of this period this year.
Let's get right to it.

all the branches of the learnin' tree!

at the time Alex Bennett dubbed them "The Motown Archies". Boy did he turn out to be wrong.

But who's this at song #2?
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Sounds like the James Gang to me, but I'm only half listening...

This set was already a classic on June 7, 2002, when it managed to get itself archived.  "The Bomber" gets my BOS of the Week vote.


Jackson 5 - ABC
James Gang - The Bomber
Sly & the Family Stone - I Want to Take You Higher
Neil Young - Only Love Can Break Your Heart
Kinks - Lola
Spinners - It's a Shame
James Taylor - Fire and Rain
Tee Set - Ma Belle Amie
Derek & the Dominos - Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad
Beatles - The Long and Winding Road

and not a little of Ravel's "Bolero", way before Bo Derek seduced Dudley Moore with it.
