That's OK, "Why Can't We Be Friends" is the pick-me-up I needed.  (The JL trib proved depressing for me.)

we very nearly had a Corinthian JINX.  

WOS "Sweet Emotion" -- another medium-sized hit that went on to be one of the most-overplayed "Classic Rock" tracks ever.

Gawd Bless Bob for being the only 10@10 host who plays "Rhinestone Cowboy" semi-regularly. BOS and quite a flashback.

Rats, no dig at this, but I was really hoping for "Down By the Seaside."  Wanted to prolong my own '75 flashback.

Speculation on my part. And I can picture him doing "Southern Nights" as well.
