18 Sept 2009--it's 1970

BOS Joe Walsh

Hold chicken salad between your knees and it will soon smell like Funk 49.

A serious question: Did the James Gang have funks 1 through 48?  Or was #49 an arbitrary number?

they did record Funk 48, but not sure about nos 1-47.

Uber BOS, Jimmy Cliff, another year specific bustout, though it appeared in many MLK sets.

pretty sure this is tune #10, nice way to go out.

BOS6 Jimmy Cliff, a nice nod to Dave -- one of his faves

and Tull had "Hymn 43" around the same time -- coincidence?

Slightly off-topic but nonetheless: I wanna know what's up with all the movies out now with "9" in the title. You've got 9, District 9, and I believe there's one other that's not in wide release.

indeed, there's a German movie called Cloud 9 and in Dec we're getiing Nine (the film of the B'way musical). And of course in QT's IB, Hitler says "nein! nein! nein! nein! nein!"

...and of course in QT's IB, Hitler says "nein! nein! nein! nein! nein!"

OMG!  this CAN'T just be a coincidence!

You know what the say, once is a Coincidence, twice is a Conspiracy, three times is Enemy Action.

Glad to see the Partridges win BOS and here's another Dave-vs-AL observation: as much as I loved Dave and appreciated the off-the-wall stuff he occasionally dredged up, it always seemed to me there was a lot of other stuff he was afraid to play. I think Dave was basically a non-confrontational soul, and he really dreaded having to deal with complaining Fogheads saying this, that, or another song "doesn't belong on 10@10"-- and justifiably, as there was a time when playing ABBA made the phones light up with complaints. (I've already told the story about the obnoxious guy who called him up to say "Soul Patrol SUCKS!!").

AL, on the other hand, isn't afraid of anybody, I don't think.

I think if she gets a complainer she just whacks them across the brow with that giggle of hers and they disappear.

I mean, do you think station mgmt would have actually preapproved "Ca Plane Pour Moi"?
