OK, now I'm not sure...
The ABBA song is either BOS or WOS in my opinion...


I'm sure.

Zep is still bos.

BOS2, "Trampled Underfoot," easily my favorite Led Zep song.  I'm sure I heard this in 1976 when I was 3.


has anyone tried a dance version of this? It would totally work.

I hear it instead as a mega-medley with "I'm a Man" and "Long Train Runnin'."


smash-up that mash-up, my man!

I have a disco-diva version of "Long Train Runnin" from the early '90s (totally works), can't remember the woman's name.  And of course "I'm a Man" was disco-fied in the '70s if memory serves. BoysTown Gang, maybe?

Hasta la vista y'all.  See you in about a week (though I may pop in at odd hours if I'm online & have time to kill).

OK, true confessions time.  How many of you thought Bob Seger just made up the name Cat Man Doo?  I'd certainly never heard of the real place.

Gimme a red-hot mama and an ice cold beer/And I can sorta get along Smiley Maxedon
I woke up the other morning with the name "Smiley Maxedon" on my lips, went to Google, and indeed it already existed.  I didn't put two and two together until today, when I read Beej's sig.

too weird for me!  The stress is piling up.

I wish I could send you the mp3 right now- but you'll have to wait until tomorrow morn! The song will make you smile. And want a beer. And a red hot mama. But, most importantly- it'll make you smile.

(I have an old computer. It runs on Windows 98SE. For some reason- I can't use any mp3-ripping software now that I've installed a CD burner. The software for my early-model mp3 player won't work anymore, either. So, I have to do all my mp3 ripping & player-loading here at work).

A few observations upon the replay:

    WOS = "Kathmandu."  The beginning of the end for Seger, as far as I'm concerned ("Still the Same" being a lovely aberration).

    That "Pinball" song sounded a lot better tonight, perhaps because I'm in a better mood and so went in with different expectations.

    And I find myself suddenly uncomfortable with how much I like "My Little Town."  I abruptly realized this evening that the song's theme, when you get right down to it, is "Mom and Dad, you fucked up, why didn't I have nice things?" and that kind of bothers me.  On the other hand, the opening notes are almost exactly the same as the opening of "Don't Go Breaking My Heart," so it's not all bad.

    Lastly, kudos to Dave for at least two breakouts; I was doing something while Gloria G played the first time so I'm only now reacting to it.

I knew you'd like "Pinball" if you gave it a chance :wink:

I think "Little Town" is a bit broader than that; it's an indictment of small-town small-mindedness ("It's just imagination they lacked") and as such it's in the same vein as "Pleasant Valley Sunday" IMHO.

"My music bores me once again."  Not the ideal sentiment for your new single, sonny.  Who's the Mungo he's reading about in SoHo?  Mungo Jerry?  The guy from Blazing Saddles?


As you may have figured out last nite when you were listening more closely, it's "Monroe" (as in Marilyn, presumably), not "Mungo".
