I know it's only "Bang a Gong," but I like it.

We've discussed this before, remember?  -- it's "Creole Lady Marmalade" but for years I thought Patti was exhorting that pasty-faced businessman to "free yo' Lady Marmalade".

Bob's on the "when the LP was released" plan, usually (he plays Gary W's "Dreamweaver" and "Love Is Alive" in '75 all the time).

I think he must have been abstaining, which was the problem.  If he were stoned it would have sounded ten times better!

Wow, I don't remember that conversation at all.  Yikes.

Anyway, VHM to "Ol' 55."  Funny that I find the most believable Eagles vocal the one they didn't write.

WOS to one of my least-favorite covers (and to my perspective, one of the most cynical): "Another Caturday Night."

Another Saturday night, another showing of "David Hartman's Birth & Babies".  EEK!

BOS the Cat Man, a rather inspired cover IMHO, tho' I know Gaz disagrees.

In 1974 I was in 7th grade & we had this really hip music teacher, Ms. Mickens, who was black in a lily white school district, and she subscribed to some kind of Pop music eduation prgram where every week she'd get a just-released 45, along with score for her & lyric sheets for us, and we'd practice them as part of our class every Thursday.

Among those songs was Cat man's "Another Saturday Night".
