23 Aug 2006: 1988

[urth]

I'll give the Hiatt tune a VHM, both for the Charlie Watts line and the fact that there's some nice slide work from Sonny Landreth in the backing track.

Earle got my BOS though. Not a nugget worthy of the name in this set.

As Mike said on the KINK thread from Monday, Inessa wins hands down.

Not to be contrary, but I'd call it a push at best. Dave's set was nothing but retreads, but I looked at the KINK list and there's nothing on there that makes me think, "Ooo, that's cool-wish I'd heard that."

How far back has KINK gone in the month or so we've been tuning them in?

I've seen a '69 set on their website within the past 2 months; but considering they go as recent as 2001 and do "theme days" twice a week, I'm guessing '69 sets ain't too frequent.

I think it's a pretty weak set. BOS to me is Mr. Whitney Houston (just so I could call Bobby Brown, Mr. Whitney Houston) leading off the set.
