Further evidence of Set of the Month: the harrowing "Slippin' Into Darkness."  Wow.

Sadly, I'll miss the end of this -- 10:30 "scrum" meeting.

Hah! 4 out of 7!  Sing it Rev. Al.  bos 7


Somebody should page Rod back out of his meeting, before T. Rex is over.

Dayum! now we're Slipping into Darkness & into ten-way tie territory.

Jeeee-zus! TRex, Telegram Sam--BOS5 at least. OK Mark, is this is or is this ain't a bustout?


heard it once last year.  Close enough for me.  This is the set of the month so far.


I would have to agree--likely the best we've heard since Dave's birthday set last month.

BOSX+1 War, Slippin' Into Darkness. By far their high-water mark, far above Lowrider.
Let's get right to it.

I'm still partial to "Galaxy," which no one ever plays (or, apparently, remembers).

I remember it -- not bad, but a little too "we better make a disco record now" for my taste.

I'll not complain about the Dan, ever, but statistically this is a Katrina.  

But in no way detracting from this being a phenomenal set.

Good point--I never made the connection before, but both songs have a very similar groove. But which came first? I'm thinking it could have been this one.
