pre-set entertainment: EJ,. "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me". ("or the daughter either" as one NYC deejay used to like to say.)

Woo Hoo! BT & the MGs.  Gaz, think of it as an extended vamp to get things warmed up.  And I repeat: I'm reading the STAX story, Soulsville USA, and enjoying it immensely.

Hi y'all, back for a day.  Glad we're getting something like '69 now since it will be another classic later.

BOS #1 Stones, one of their best songs ever (imho).
"Music is the Earth, People are the Flowers, and I am the Hose."

--Carlos Santana, 2010

it is a similar riff... conceived in the same studio, no?  

BOS Stones; VHM Ms Clayton's searing backing vox.

Track 2, right after the eponymous title track.  You heard this at my house off of the vinyl.

Astonishingly no singles chart action from this album in the Hot 100.

ETA:  Useless trivia - David LaFlamme was the former violin soloist with the Utah Symphony and an original member of Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks.
