Let's get right to it.

Thur 1/26/12: 1977

gee, think we'll get Steve Miller, Foreigner, Steely Dan and the dead Skynyrds?

First up: the Nuge scratches an itch.

one of the uber-LNs of all-time: "Margaritaville". Perhaps an "LN Hall of Shame" should be created.

if you're "Cold as Ice" too long, will you "Turn to Stone"?

BOS (best of an overly-familiar lot so far) "Deacon Blues"

Heart sing an ode to Diver Dan Baron Barracuda



Wass yo' name, little girl? Ahm a redneck singer with a half-dead Southern rock band.

jeez, CSN actually sound really good in this company. VHM "Dark Star" --  ain't this song a bust? Actually, no.

Much as I've always loved "Smoke from a Dist--"  it's been heard too often across the various 10@10s lately-- reluctant LN.

WOS Kansas LN and TH (too Hallmark-y)

Ted Nugent - Cat Scratch Fever 
Jimmy Buffett - Margaritaville 
Foreigner - Cold As Ice 
Electric Light Orchestra - Turn To Stone 
Steely Dan - Deacon Blues 
Heart - Barracuda 
Lynyrd Skynyrd - What's Your Name 
Crosby, Stills & Nash - Dark Star 
Sanford & Townsend Band - Smoke From A Distant Fire 
Kansas - Dust In The Wind
