BOS Mr Walsh with Indian Summer (on this beauty of a spring day) and to Mr Rafferty with that oh-so-1978 ramble down Baker Street.
<--oh yeah, avatar is Springsteen & his 60 Corvette in Freehold NJ 1978.

TANC!!!  Saturday night, I was shopping in SoHo and stopped in a picture gallery called Morrison Hotel (people like Henry Diltz who specialize in rock photography).  This very picture was hanging lifesize on the back wall.
Which reminds me, last Friday I was driving a visiting NJ friend from SFO up to Santa Rosa to visit his brother. We stopped at a guitar store in San Rafael for him to pick up a rental guitar to use at open mics during this week.  While eating lunch next door, I spot a familiar looking guy walking his young daughter back and forth along the length of the storefronts before getting into a newer black Mercedes sedan and leaving. My friend confirmed it was James Hetfield of Metallica. Upon arriving at his brothers, we checked the web and sure enough the pics matched the guy we saw. A site said he lives in nearby Bevedere, married with three kids.  Would've been funny to get a pic with him.

This mellowness is a breakout to my ears, I think.  Sounds like a cross between Alan Parsons and early-'70s Bee Gees.

This Moodies song is likely to be as close to a bustout as we get. Driftwood, heard it once before about three years ago, per the DB. Too bad it's kinda cheesy with the sax and all.

Apt comparisons, both. Well bowled, Gaz!

You should never argue with a crazy MAMAMAMAMAMA.  But I can give her (and him) a BOS.

Okay, now here's a Petty nugget thrown in as a change-up!

OK, here's an honest-ta-god DB bustout--and likely recipient of my BOS vote: Petty, You're Gonna Get It. Title cut off his sophomore effort.
