I mean this song not only has one of history's worst rhymes ('good long drink' with 'hesitate') AND it has a direct contradiction in its own terms (if the "virgin child" lets her "inhibitions run wild" then that's exactly what is "gonna stop us now").

Are you talking about the girl in the pretty French gown taking a good long drink?  At least there was no GHB in 1976.

It should be against 10@10 protocol to play the Eagles AND Fleetwood Mac in the same set.  Makes the set feel too much like the Yankees lineup.

That was Kansas, off of Leftoverture.

WOS to this "Young Blood" thing that I've never heard before.  Good sounding set, but more dinosaurs than the Museum of Natural History.

BadCo.  an old '50s (Drifters?) tune. A top 20 hit, surprisingly.

Let's not forget Leon Russell's version from Bangladesh.

I wish someone would put together a definitive Leon Russell anthology. What a career.

He got a call out from Little Steven last night, but at the moment I can't recall which song in the set it was that he'd played on.

Did anyone stick around for Selvin's show?  Extended jams only, made me stay up way past my bedtime.
