I'm probably just hyperaware, but this set is striking a chord with me. VVHM Gary Moore.
You can sing the refrain of Lionel Richie's "Hello" to this.

Mr Moore's still got da 'trinas.  And Dave's still got selective amnesia in the '90s.

That's not the half of it.  Dave has played this in three 1990 sets, two 1991 sets and now two 1992 sets.  Make up your mind Dave!

Thin Lizzy!

ETA:  This leads to one of my favorite trivia questions, multiple choice:

The best-selling Blues LP of alltime was recorded by
A)  a Black American
B)  a White American
C)  a Black Briton
D)  a White Briton
E)  a White Irishman

I know a lot of you dislike, or at least find Katrinable, "I Love You Goodbye," but it's still a very powerful refrain for me.  BOS.

Not just you.  This song has appeared in 7 previous sets (about 30%, so a solid Katrina) and yet it has won BOS from the Fogheads Every. Single. Time.

Which probably makes it the most amazing song in the entire Db, as far as BOS's go.
He makes it 8 for 8!

In hindsight, I wish you hadn't pointed this out - it would have made an amazing trivia question.

Without your lead-in, I'd thought the best-selling blues LP of all time was Eric Clapton and B.B. King's Riding With the King, which would've make the answer (A) AND (D).
