7 June 2013: it's... 1968

per RR's clue.  This will be an interesting window into the mindset of the new regime. Check the ratio of underexposed gems to overplayed "classics".

also, as someone on FB pointed out, this has been a week with 2 '70s sets AND a '60s.  Trend? or anomaly?

"Crimson And Clover", overplayed but I'll spot it an HM.

"Crimson & Clove Her" gets a pass if RR plays the looooong version.

ETA: Nope.

At first look it sounds kind of like they're trying to get back some of the older demographic that DC had no use for.

Steppenwolf and then Tommy James. We're in serious KFRC territory here, folks.

"Birdie num-num"  BOS Peter Sellers.

VHM Fever Tree, not exactly a rarity either.

Points for the trailer to The Party. one of Peter Sellers' underappreciated classics.

And it's the Return of the Native! AKA San Francisco Girls.  Major DaveFave.

I love this Fever Tree song, but it's always hard to hear a RR '68 10@10.  My HS graduation year (45th reunion this summer), but such a blockbuster year is usually reduced to touristy choices.  Good songs, but '68 was so much more.

Love Street.

"Love Steet", once a rarity but AL and RR have played it a bunch of times. Better than "Hello I Love You", I guess.

VHM Ree-Ree, one of the great 2-minutes-and change 45s.
