I bet RGMike gives BOS to this song about eagles.  Is this Bonnie Raitt trying to sound like Joni Mitchell?

But I'd request "This Song", "Crackerbox Palace" or "Ding Dong".


Heh, those are probably my three least favorite of Georgie's solo singles.

At least you didn't argue for "Gone Troppo."

Dave must not have gotten my card in time!

alas & alack!


I called, he didn't get your email! Said he can't do belated wishes when closing the set either.  :(


I sent him a card with an interesting aerial view of the GG Bridge, detailing my idea for a Don Pardo "looong version" sound clip.  Wanna call him back & at least inquire if he's up for doing that sometime this week?

If not I still appreciate the original attempt.


EMAIL THE MAN! Say your bday was Sunday and ask for bday wishes now since "card" was lost in the mail.

VHM Raspberries commercial (feat WNEW-FM vet Dennis Elsas), but not to "Overnite Katrina".

Second time in a week hearing "Overnight Sensation (Hit Record)."  Methinks a few people are getting excited about the upcoming Raspberries reunion tour dates.  John Waite should be touring with them instead of sharing a relic bill with Dennis DeYoung and Toto.

Bet I don't :P

But you're right this sounds like it could been on Hejira.  Is it a John Prine song? She covered a few of his.
