BOS 3, Jimi.
and any fool knows
a dog needs a home
a shelter
from pigs on the wing

Another BOS to Donovan. Sarah McLachlan had an interesting cover of this, many years later.

Your stream is a minute-plus ahead of mine.  I adore "Wear Your Love Like Heaven."

Agreed.  BOS 2 (i'm being stingy - not a bad song in the lot so far).

Agreed - if I had to give a WOS it'd be to the leadoff song, but only because it's overplayed.

Best '60s set since the "new guidelines" kicked in. This one did NOT sound like Oldies 103.7...

...well, until "White Rabbit" showed up.  (but given the theme, it was inevitable)
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

White Rabbit is this set's Katrina (along with the Beatles), but it does fit the theme.

It's alright by me.  Another classic I don't really tire of.  But then, I don't spend all that much time listening to oldies radio, and I didn't spend that much time at top 40 stations when I was young.  And it's short.

OMG! Chambers Bros! Hope Geoff got his stream back. The looong version? Psychedelicized BOS6 either way.

Uber BOS!!!  Hope it's Dave's super-edit, but that seems unlikely.

Well, this is the best set I've heard in a good while. Probably the best of the DC era.

And to think how grouchy we were after that 1997 set.

Indeed. Which raises the question of why it can't be at least semi-interesting all the time/more often than not.  Why can Dred play "Walk on By" at 8pm while 10@10 seems to be getting micromanaged? It really defies logic, IMHO.

Also, this is the first time we've gotten a '70s and a '60s set in the same week in about a month, I think

yay!  today's set was pretty good.



I have to correct Al, though: she misquoted that Don Pardo clip they used to play. 

 It actually went

"Now I ask you: For hits like these, who you gonna call?"

she really shoulda played the clip of him saying "Ladies and gentlemen... the looooooooong version!" for the Chambers Bros.

I never got the stream back, and I can't stay up until 1:00 AM out here either!  Did they play the long version?  Also, finally true justice, as this was a huge hit here in '67, even though the rest of the country was '68.  By 'here' I mean 'there' back in the Bay Area, where I'm currently not!

my first concert of any size (December '67):

Don't stand in the way of LOVE!
