8 Feb 2012: it's... 1976

[urth]

did anyone record this fine set?

let's hope so.

DW thought Tom Waits was Lou Rawls.

I saw that.  Truly hilarious.   

(GD said he's recording it and will send a copy to me.  I can post in our stash place.)

Nice. First set in awhile that was worthy of archiving.

Holy father of 10at10, I can't believe we're hearing "Step Right Up" from Tom Waits. Awesome!!!!!

I'm happy to hear this, but wouldn't you guys call this a Katrina?

Really? I must have missed a bunch of 10at10s, cause I've never heard this anywhere except RadioParadise.

Dave used to play it occasionally but I don't think it's made too many appearances in the AL era.

Went to sleep listening to the replay... the Bob Seger really was a good way to leadoff. Too bad I was too zonked to listen to it in its entirety.

Looking thru the other sets that GD has archived, I ran across another '76 set from last August that has a couple of the same songs and a few other similar components.  Here's its setlist:

8/30/11-Tuesday! Rock & Roll Never Forgets...1976!

  1.  Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band- Rock & Roll Never Forgets
  2.  Bay City Rollers- S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night
(TV: Saturday Night Live: Gilda as Emily Litella)
  3.  Tom Petty & Heartbreakers- American Girl
(Movie: Raquel Welch in Mother, Jugs & Speed)
  4.  Robert Palmer- Man Smart Woman Smarter
  5.  Bob Marley- Positive Vibration
  6.  Rod Stewart- The Killing of Georgie Pt 1 & 2 BOS!!!
  7.  Queen- Somebody To Love
(News: Bicentennial celebrations/SF party)
  8.  Earth Wind & Fire- Getaway
  9.  Hot Chocolate- You Sexy Thing
(Rick Dees-Disco Duck-denied by Emily Litella- Never Mind:)
10.  Boz Scaggs- What Do You Want the Girl To Do

Both sets lead with Bob Seger, although different songs.  Both sets also have different Rod Stewart songs (Killing of Georgie vs. The First Cut...) and the Boz Scaggs and Queen songs appear in both sets. Also, Gilda Radner shows up in both, performing different bits.

Hrm. Coincidence, formula or the hand of DC?
