...and kudos to Ginger for doing one of my fave years on the day before vacay.


...and so presumably kudos to Dave as well.

was just humming this song yesterday, after hearing "Born On The Bayou" & thinking of the other songs in the M3S list of songs mentioning the 4th of July.

OMG!  And I always think of Daniel Boone in the same moment, ever since I was 9.

From Saturday (in the park) to (Beautiful) Sunday. What other "day" songs do we have to choose from in '72?

Indeed -- tho' I suspect this will be a bit more predictable, if enjoyable.

VHM Daniel Boone -- between this and the Chicago, we're quite sunshiny so far.

Nice segue from Leon's piano into Elton's take on honky tonk.

This song really does highlight Reg's piano technique--there's some tasty key-banging going on here. Haven't listened to it closely in a long time.

er... "Day By Day"? I'd love to hear that, actually. Yeah, Jesus was a white-faced mime. Sure he was.

speaking of 'tastiness'...here's one of the most sublimely tasty guitar duets in the whole rock pantheon.  BOS "Blue Sky"
