The 'oo keep it "Real", and while Styx's "Lady" may have been a late-'73 release, I don't know anyone who doesn't associate it with '74.

this Marshall Tucker Take the Highway has a lot in common w Jethro Tull, esp the flute of course, but the syncopated middle part here.  Only w MT you can actually understand what the lyrics mean.   :D

Startiing work early today, so figured I'd check out what Bob was doing. Just in time for the MTB, but is the volume fluctuating for anyone else? Keeps going up and down for me.
Let's get right to it.

Never mind--it was just the Marshall Tucker tune, for some reason. Fine since then. Wtf?

Props for the Kojak and Six-Million Dollar Man clips. Today the $6M Man would run at least $2B.

Uh-oh, Gaz, run! It's the theme from Deliverance!

TANC: here's that great Communist band, the Pinko Floyd, with "Brain Damage" -- the Austin Lounge Lizards do a great bluegrass version of this.
