Aja??

Agreed on BOS for the Dan, and for Scott Beach while we're at it.

Aja??

not for me.  Aja was the beginning of the slide towards Jazz, and the end of rock.  I liked Aja, it wasn't as uniformly good, and less colorful.

3.  America - Today's the Day  
4.  KC & the Sunshine Band - Shake Your Booty  
5.  BTO - Lookin' Out for #1

Somehow I thought the Scott Beach was an "extra", not song #8.  Kind of a cheat, there, Dave -- it's, what?, a minute-and-a-half?

BOS, BTO (so far)

Hey Rod, I missed the set, but I got the reference.  Good one!

Wanted to make sure you knew that someone got it.

I'm with you, Geoff.  Aja and Gaucho, lovely as they are, literally put me to sleep if I listen to either one straight through. (You'd think I'd use them for my intermittent insomnia.)

My BOS went to America.  Would have thought we were due for Jefferson Starship's "With Your Love," but oh well.
