Bless you, Marcus! Tull's "Reasons For Waiting" gets a BOSFRA from me.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

BOS to the Zombies, "Time of the Season."  As sexy as Britpop ever got.

Who'da thunk that in 2007-08, "Let It Bleed" would be rendered as a campfire singalong in a car commercial?

BOS4 Tempts, "can't Get Next To You" -- this was a welcome blast of message-less funk in the midst of their social-consciousness period.

BOS5 and proxy of Geoff, "Albatross"

I just tuned in at the close of "Albatross", and for the first few notes I thought it was the Beatles.  Now I guess Marcus also thinks these two sound very similar.

I was just getting ready to post a note to exactly that effect.

Mike - Is that John Cleese in drag carrying the albatross?

Hello! one of the most classic Python bits, like ever!  Agreed on the Albatross/Sun King similarity.  BOS6 the Fabs -- yet another for the Beatles gender-bender list. "She's so good-looking, but she looks like a man".  Talk about "a sack to be milked"!

Oh yeah, although I can't remember a single thing about the bit beyond Cleese yelling "Albatross!"

...which is hysterical enough.
