between Supertramp and Pink Floyd (an uncensored "Money" with its bullshit intact!) we had a bumper with the Drive's voiceover guy talking about saxaphones; in the background was the fabulous theme from Taxi Driver which would be my Best-of-Month if we heard the whole thing.

and we close, not surprisingly, with the Big Man himself, on "Jungleland".  Nicely done, Bob!
