Hmmm, not recognizing this one, but I'll guess Suzi Quattro? In her pre-Tuscadero days.
Let's get right to it.

You got a line, and I got a pole, I'll meets ya down by the fishin' hole!

BOS4, the oh-so-suave Mr. Palmer's Sailin Shoes/Hey Julia/Sneakin' Sally Thru the Alley medley!

Weird: I'm not finding this in the DB, but I know Dave played it a time or two.

He definitely did, as did Ginger methinks.

jeezus -- is this Suzi Quatro?

Yup it is (looked it up).  Sure sounds like Joan Jett.

Great minds....I can't say I know her stuff much at all, not sure she even had a hit to speak of. But it's the right period. Props to AL for diggin' really deep on that one.

BOS6 bitchin' EJ. The Quatro gets a VHMFRA, but it's not one of her best (Id've preferred "Can the Can").

BOS for Elton bitching at us.  I wondered if he ever pushed back on Bernie's lyrics.  This one's got some stinkers -- "I get high in the evening sniffing pots of glue".  Terrible.

ETA: And it IS TOP on the horns.  Excellent.

famously censored by some radio stations, including WABC in NYC.  Funny that Taupin, a straight guy, wrote such gay lyrics for Elton. ("GYBR", "All theGirls Love Alice", and "Bitch", which could be about every cocktail-party queen you've ever met.)

VHM Supertramp. Can't BOS this one as it was Dave's go-to song off Crime of the Century. I'd love for AL to play the title track some time though.
