ah said "excuuuse!" -- proxy of GazWOS, Skynyrd's debut

It always amazed me that this wasn't a  hit single, while the similarly-themed "Uneasy Rider" hit the Top Ten that year.

Watergate causes Stevie to head for higher ground. Good idea, since the 'oo are about to make it rain.

No, Bob's played it a number of times, tho' I'd be surprised if it's in the Morey shraytabase more than once (if at all).

Available to play any kind of wedding!  They can re-tool the song as "Ginger loves Marianne."

I hate it when Bob plays Orleans' "Dance With Me" in '73.  Mighta got Chi-town airplay then, but nobody else noticed it until '75.

Was that Gerry Ford stumbling through "I will do my utmost to my ability"?

Sign that I listen to too much music: I recognized "Jimmy Loves Maryann" in 3 notes.
