30 April 2013: it's... 1978
« on: April 30, 2013, 09:16:45 AM »
I'm guessing mid-to-late '70s today. Which would be nice.

ETA: RR's clue: "the first test-tube baby", which would appear to mean 1978

*DING DING DING!*

And we head "Straight On" with Heart.  BOS1 -- one of my fave 45s of theirs.

John Belushi blows each and all of his friends. Do tell!

I know that 35 years down the road many are down on this whiteface/blackface blues but at least we didn't get "Soul Man" or "Rubber Biscuit".

VHM Keith goes to court; BOS2 "Respecta-ball"

Always wondered about that line.

Was that intro bit from the Blues Bros. movie, or from SNL? If it's the former, def. not legal for '78.
Let's get right to it.

Was wondering if we were going to hear any Stones. Then the Keith's bust in Toronto clip started. Respecta-bowl?

I had the same thought, but Briefcase Full o' Blues was actually recorded live at the Universal Ampitheater. I'd forgotten that.

Much rejoicing in 'snipes-land, I assume. And there's plenty of time for some Broooce.

ooo, nice segue to "Satisfaction" by Devo. BOS3. Is this really a decent set or am I over-caffienated?

Memories of Meg Griffin on WNEW-FM, who LURVED this cover version and nearly single-handedly dragged that station into the 1980s.

Oy: uber-uber-uber-LN2 "Heart of Glass", pain in the ass.
