BOS #5 the Feat.  An alternate request I gave Annalisa was from this album, "New Delhi Freight Train", but this is the song I played for Gaz while we were driving into SF yesterday.  Which made him tell Mike that he has a new appreciation for Lowell George's songwriting.

Two years ago at the County Fair I saw these guys, set included a faithful rendition of this tune. Afterwards got to hang out and speak with all of them for ten minutes, nice guys.
Cuz its only jukebox music!

Another song I glanced at when considering my requests.  BOS Kinks "Jukebox Music"

BOS goes to Joan Armatrading for "Show Some Emotion"!  I've always thought that "Hell In a Bucket" was highly influenced by this tune.  She's got some Steely Dan bits in there too.

As long as I'm checking Allmusic credits thought I'd see if there's any connection.  Found out that the sax on this song was by Mel Collins, who also did the solo on "The Core", and played on "My Baby Gives It Away" as well!

One last BOS, for Iggy, yet another tune I looked at for my requests.  The only thing Annalisa didn't play today that I wish she had is Television.

I can bet my house that she has this on vinyl.

Glad shray and TC got shoutouts and requests, but otherwise this seems like a better-than-average-but-no-bustouts kinda set. (Yes, I'm feeling churlish today).

I'll miss tomorrow's too -- hoping AL does Mardi Gras, tho'.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
