"My favorite year" is probably the wrong way to put it; but one of the most important years of my life.  I predict 3DN and/or BW Stevenson. But I'd really like an Innervisions album track: "Too High", "Misstra Know-it-All", "Golden Lady"...

You're right with the implicit assumption that "Shambala" is likely for today.  I'm gonna guess something from Led Zep, along with "Hold Your Head Up" unless that was '72.  But if Bob pulled out something like Aretha's "Master of Eyes (The Deepness of Your Eyes)," I'd prolly fall off my chair.

Indeed it was, but Argent's "God Gave Rock'n'Roll to You" was '73.  Better their version than the KISS remake :wink:

I've only ever heard the KISS version -- which, I must add, I thought was gonna be a HUGE hit.  Liked it a lot.

Tempted to give a BOS to Gun Hill Road, which I didn't know was a street in NYC (the Bronx, I believe) until I moved here.

Deep Purple showing how redundant it is to release a live version of your hit the same year.

OMG ! Gun Hill Road!  will it be the single or the unexpurgated LP cut?

you are correct, sir. Which is why I'm surprised it was more than a local hit -- Dave AND Bob remember it, obviously.

Easy BOS, "Kodachrome."  That refrain has certain notes that make my hair stand on end (in the good way).  "Sunny day, oh, yeah" -- that ascension of notes, ahhh.  What notes are those?
