"How Long" is a Katrina, but it's just so cool at the beginning.  Not many songs you can name from the first two notes -- on the bass.  Well, maybe there are a bunch, but I'm still happy to be able to do it on this one.


Not sure why, but this set's taken a decidedly southern turn with How Long and now S-O-S--I feel like I've heard both of them a lot--guess the same could be said for the 10cc tune but I've got a soft spot for them.


For the record, Mark's DB has How Long listed six times, Blackmail five, and SOS only twice. (Admittedly, the version I have here at work is only current thru late April of this year.)

BOS # whatever Nashville.

I'd've followed that with Keith Carradine, but H,JF&R will do.

Heh, he does say it that way.  I thought you were doing the Elmer Fudd version until the chorus came around again.

BOS2 to Nashville, which I must make a point of seeing in the next week or two.


It's pretty great -- add Long Goodbye for an Altman double-bill.

I'm not familiar with that one.  I think the only Altman I've seen in its entirety was Cookie's Fortune, which I didn't dislike but wouldn't strongly recommend.  Never even saw M*A*S*H the movie.

Agreed to all of the above, and I'd add McCabe and Mrs. Miller and perhaps Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean as well. Short Cuts I go back and forth on--it probably would have been better if it had been cut down a bit, but if you want to see where Paul Thomas Anderson got his inspiration for Magnolia, it's worth a look.

Belated BOS to WPOD. This was so cool way too many years ago.

In comparison to the 11/30 83 set, is this one really that more adventurous?  A lot of usual suspects here, really.  Nothing earth shattering.  And really, a couple of tunes that I dislike more than anything (save the Genesis) in the '83 set.

However, the 70's are my decade,...  Cue up the Bowie/Cher video!!!

11/29/2006 - Midweek! Lots o' fun in...1975!!!
 
1.  Ian Hunter - Once Bitten, Twice Shy  
2.  Led Zeppelin - Boogie With Stu  
3.  Pilot - Magic  
4.  Queen - Killer Queen  
5.  Tubes - White Punks on Dope (BEST OF SET!!)  
6.  10cc - Blackmail  
7.  Ace - How Long  
8.  ABBA - SOS  
9.  Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds - Fallin' in Love  
10.  David Bowie - Golden Years  
 
BONUS TRACK:  The Doobie Brothers - Take Me in Your Arms (Rock Me)

Point taken, Rod--there's a few personal faves of mine as well, but the only real nugget here is the HJF&R tune. Everything else we've heard a few times at least.

And yeah, we're pretty jaded.

Everything said above is true, and it's no surprise we prefer '70s sets on principle -- '70s Katrinas beat '80s Katrinas 95% of the time, and '70s sets probably feature more breakouts & rarities overall.  While there was no bustout in the '75 set (tho' WPOD is pretty rare) and most of the songs are Morey faves, only the Queen and the Bowie show up on KFOG outside 10@10 (even if they show up quite regularly).  The '83 set, on the other hand, featured six KFOG playlist staples: the Genesis, Call, Police, Big Country, Kinks and Madness tunes, in addition to the 10@10 Katrinas by Neil and Dolby.  The '83 coulda used more pure pop; the '80s equivalents of ABBA (Madonna, perhaps? MJ or his sister?) don't show up nearly as often as they should.
