The Peak, 12/1/08: It's 1977
« on: December 01, 2008, 07:08:54 AM »
Tom Petty breaks down, while some unknown rockers wonder "Why don't you ask him?" with a sound close to that of the Great 12-String Revival.

Oh, wait: the Peak's player says it's "Do Anything You Wanna Do" by Eddie and the Hot Rods.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

Proxy of Shray to CBB's "Couldn't Get It Right," followed by a (Steve Martin?) sketch about a gasoline-powered turtleneck sweater and other odd purchases.

BOS to Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes, "Without Love"!!!  TANC: I spent Saturday on an impromptu trip to Asbury Park with a friend.  Got a pic of me in front of the Stone Pony.

Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes, "Without Love"

For anyone who's curious, here's Aretha's original take.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

Tom Petty Breakdown
Eddie And The Hot Rods Do Anything You Wanna Do
David Bowie Heroes
Climax Blues Band Couldn't Get it Right
George Thorogood & the Destroyers Madison Blues
Bob Marley & The Wailers One Love / People Get Ready
Mink DeVille Spanish Stroll
Bonnie Raitt Runaway
Ramones Rockaway Beach
Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes Without Love

DAMN. Rob's unbeatable in the late '70s. Kudos on E&tHRs, SSJ&TAJs and Mink DeVille. Bob's doing '77 in a few minutes -- he can't possibly match this.
