BOS Linda
There are 10 kinds of people; those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Closer to the heart attack? sheesh. the aforementioned Rush with the aforementioned WOS2.

I repeat the refrain I sang during the Morey era: just once in a '77 set, could we follow Elvis death clips with an actual, y'now, Elvis song?

I'd rather hear Linda yell than hear the horrific Geddy Lee making dogs' heads explode ;)

Yay for Rush.  Even if you don't like Geddy's voice, you gotta appreciate his bass playing.

And HM for Queen.  Didja hear Brian May on "Fresh Air"?  He was great, and gave some really interesting facts about the way "We Will Rock You" was recorded.

Freddie wants to, er, rock you. Why do you think they called the band "Queen", dude?

Without cheating and looking at allmusic, I'll pose the question: Did Elvis release anything in 1977?

yes -- his hit "Way Down" (an underrated/underplayed tune) was in the Top 40 when he died, and he also had "Moody Blue" earlier that year.

OK - I hadn't realized "Way Down" was from that late in his career. So yes, that would be a fitting song to play.
