25 January 2008--it's 1972

[ggould]

Ah yes, 1972, glitter rock, soul and the singer-songwriter...

Welcome Wayback!  Dig the Avatar!

OMG! I was thisclose to predicting "Easy Living" -- I swear!  BOS the Heep.

Uriah Heep!!  Yes, avatar is just for "all you 10@10 young dudes"

in my guitar biz, Ken Hensley was an AR guy for Ampeg, and I later found out he was in Uriah Heep!  A group I only have creepy memories of on some late night rock show on TV.

VHM Hanoi Jane.  But a big BOS2 Mark-Almond "The City". fake-jazz at its finest.

Does your DB track the frequency of news bits and such?  I've heard that Jane clip several times before.

Btw, Geoff, I just realized we don't have a link to the glossary page on our new forum--must have left it at the old one. Can we squeeze one onto the current page someplace? With all these new folks dropping in, it might be needed!

Nope, I don't thing we've gotten *that* anal yet. But you're right--the Phil & Jane clip is a frequent flyer.

sadly, no -- we rely on memory for those. We call overplayed newsclips "Sallys" (after Sally Field's Oscar clip), just as overplayed songs are "Katrinas" (for Katrina & the Waves, whose "Walking on Sunshine" was once heard in nearly every 1985 set).  But check out the 10@10 Glossary for more.

Love the Reagan/Wallace clip.  As a friend said at the time, "Hmmm... Abraham, Martin, John... and GEORGE???"

OMFG! BOS3 O'Jay's "992 Arguments", their soundalike follow-up to "Backstabbers", but a fine single nonetheless.

Welcome Wayback!

ETA:  I do hope it's a soul-ful set - Al Green can be counted on (Dave has played 5 diff. tracks by him in my Db for '72), and I wouldn't mind hearing Cornelius Bros. and Sister Rose, Bill Withers, Donnie Elbert, O'Jays, Stylistics, Spinners, etc.

Heading into Soul territory--and I'm pretty sure it's a first-timer at that! 992 Arguments--ah, that Philly sound!

Don't think I've heard 992 Arguments in a prior 72 set, but now Smoke is a really 1972 memory!

I'd've bet money we heard this -- and recently, too -- but the Shraytabase sez no.  But here's a "classic" i've had enuf of. Some Stoopid with a flare gun, indeed.

Love the ad montages!  And early 70's Blaxploitation flicks, yeah!
