I called Annalisa last Thursday to ask about today's set & if I could request something for TC's & my b-day, and she said she was leaning towards either a 70's chartbuster set or 1977.  I said I'd rather make a '77 request than a Top 10 request & she said "Okay, that seals it, send me an email when you think of what you'd like to request" (I was in the car heading to OAK to get Gaz when I called).  I called TC to let him know also, but I'm not sure if he followed through.  Couple hours ago I got the following email from her:

Happy Birthday, Mark!
I hope you had a fruitful trip to Amoeba after your brunch (my favorite weekend meal:)
I'll be giving you a radio birthday wish later on, but thought I'd give you an email one first!
Wishing you a great day. Thanks so much for being part of the 10@10 fun.
Take Care,
your radio pal,
Annalisa
PS-I couldn't tell which other 10@10 friend you said was celebrating a birthday today. I only see the Facebook group b'days. Are they also on FB? Aaaaanyway...wish him a Happy Birthday for me, too!

Yes, we've rolled a lucky triple-7: it's '77 on the 7th!

Wait?  Was there a drought in '77?   ::)

BOS #3 to the Doobs for the nice xylophone solo.

ETA:  correction, after checking with Allmusic I find that was a vibraphone.  Interesting bio on the guy playing:

Victor Feldman (1934-1987) was a child prodigy who was a professional from the age of seven and sat in on drums with Glenn Miller's Army Air Force Band in 1944 when he was ten. He was active in his native England through the bebop years (mostly on drums), debuting as a leader in 1948. By 1952, Feldman was getting better-known for his vibes playing and he recorded extensively during the 1950s. After touring with Woody Herman (1956-1957), he decided to move to the U.S. in 1957, where he worked at the Lighthouse with Howard Rumsey. Feldman recorded (on vibes and piano) for Mode, Contemporary, and Riverside during 1957-1961, a period in which he became a busy studio musician. Feldman was with Cannonball Adderley's Quintet (mostly as a pianist) for six months in 1960-1961 and recorded with Miles Davis in 1963 (who offered him a job with his new quintet and recorded his original "Seven Steps to Heaven"), but remained in L.A. and the studios.

TANC - The picture of me at Amoeba yesterday shows me holding up the CD I got of Glenn Miller's Army Air Force Band.  He might even be on there.

Yup, and a serious drought again here in late 80's.
Time Loves A Hero who uses a brick.  And maybe we'll hear some Brick?  ;)
Of course now we have high-tech low-flow toilets, as the minerals from a brick aren't really good for your toilet and plumbing.

As Pablo Cruise advises, find your place in the sun. :o
