"You are the sunshine of my life" could only have been a hit in the '70's That intro is way too groovy and complex for any other time zone.

BOS to Stevie Wonder - this is Sledgehammer from an episode of Taxi - Jim Ignatowski hugging his dead father's jacket he wrapped around a chair.

I still don't understand why the trumpets during the verses were removed for the radio version.

Tuned in just in time for this.

Never noticed different versions of "Sunshine" - huh?

Hoping for some Elton John.

Serious weirdness from Lou Reed.  Is that David Bowie on the backing howls?

BOS5 Ringo's career peak. By all accounts, he's getting the most props from the re-issues. "Damn, I can really hear the drums!"

VHM to "Photograph," my second favorite of the Ringo singos next to "It Don't Come Easy."

considering he produced it, I'd say yes.

One version has trumpets (not only in the verses, it just occurred to me), and the other version doesn't. I'm pretty sure it's the album version has trumpets. I'll check after the set.

George needs hope to help him cope with a #1 record. A material world, indeed.

Pre-jinx for the George Harrison twin-spin.

It's effectively a GH twin spin.  BOS to "Give Me Love, Give Me a Riff from Dylan's 'I Want You'."
