As much as I dig Nillsson and psychedelia in general, I never liked "Jump Into the Fire".  It just sounds bad to me.

Dave played "Bless The Beasts And The Children" once, "Goodbye To Love" four times, and once played "Please Mr. Postman" in a HFH set.

GTL was in a 3-way tie for BOS in 2 of it's 4 appearances.

I can't wait for a 2009 10@10 when they play a clip from the classic television series "Trauma".

I'll give BOS to the bonus track.

Just noticed something I'd forgotten about All Down the Line: the nod to Phil Spector and the Ronettes with the ending refrain "be my little bay-bay for a while." Long before Eddie Money would do likewise.

do you really think so?  Seems a stretch to me!

Baby Blue makes its 2nd appearance of the day -- it was in Rob's '71 set too, Dixie dear.

I love this song, but there's something horribly muddy to my ears about the production.  BOS nevertheless - I'll try to catch this set in the morning since I've never heard the Move or T. Rex songs.
