$20 to every Clubhouse member if he plays "John Sinclair" or "Attica State"!

I sent Dave a last-minute request for How Do You Sleep, but I'm not making any financial commitments if it turns up. I'd also love to hear Mother, probably a little more likely than any of the three above. But only a little.

Still in mourning for James here, and now this set is bringing back the very similar emotions I felt in December 1980.

BOS "Across the Universe".

I thought for sure Dave did a Lennon set last year for the 25th anniv, but instead he did a date-specific 1980 set that didn't include John.

Quote
Steely Dan - Hey 19
Doobie Brothers - Real Love
John Mellencamp - This Time
Rockpile - Teacher Teacher
Diana Ross - I'm Comin' Out
Devo - Whip It (Best of Set!)
Police - De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da
Donna Summer - The Wanderer
Robert Palmer - Looking For Clues
Blondie - The Tide is High
BONUS TRACK: Alan Parsons Project - Games People Play


BOS2 "Love".

Preemptive 10-way tie for Best of Set. I don't even want to try to quantify one Lennon tune better than nine others.

I phoned in for the loveliest set of the week. LSOW? Nah.
This is hitting just the right spot.

CHIRST, you know it ain't easy -- remember the outcry when this came out? And that was long before FAUX News and the right-wing blogosphere.

I just IM'd the above to Dave, and he came back to say that we may have our first-ever 10-way tie. He says EVERYONE is voting that way.

What's the title of this lovely lullaby-like beautiful daughter song?

Actually it's called Beautiful Boy--John wrote it for Sean--as the last line just mentioned by name. It's on Double Fantasy.

My God. The a cappella Because from Anthology. This is giving me serious chills.

And so this is Christmas. And what have you done, Messrs. Bush & Cheney?  War is over -- if you want it.

Crap. An inconveniently timed impromptu staff meeting took place around my cube about halfway thru Happy Xmas, so I missed the end of that and the backsell (I assume that was tune #10?). Did the 10-way tie actually happen? I have to catch the replay tonight, no fail.
