Wednesday March 16--It's 1975!
« on: March 16, 2005, 10:00:49 AM »
Never heard Dave tip the year in the pre-spin spiel before!

And he said before the commercials that it would include the best TV show theme song of the decade. Bob Newhart (the big band version)? That'd get my vote.

I'd lay money on ELO, if not Fire on High then something else from Face the Music (Poker has been a recent Dave-fave).

My vote would be for "Nanny & the Professor" (thank you, Addrisi Bros.) but I'm sure that's not where Dave was going.  I'd expect either Maude or Barney Miller.  No, wait -- Baretta.

No sooner posted than done. But we get the hit instead.

I knew as soon as Dave said "1975" we'd hear "Ballroom Blitz". Not that I'm complaining! Woo!

VVHM to ELO.  Y'all know how great a production I think this is.  As close as Jeff Lynne ever came to FONKY.

I'd lay money on the Rockford Files, which first aired in the 74-75 season.  Baretta was in '75, so maybe.

Agreed. The last great ELO record--the ones that followed seemed to have lost something, and when he canned his string section, well, it was all over.

There was a reconstituted ELO touring on the Konocti oldies circuit a couple years back--anyone know who was in it or if they were any good?

Very nice (heh) to hear Ambrosia.  I bet we get some "Born to Run" action in there to.  Maybe in a couple more songs...

The not-surprising Ambrosia.  Who let the prog out?
