29 Aug 2013: it's... 1973
« on: August 29, 2013, 07:40:43 AM »
"The year Brando snubbed the Oscars", which technically happened in April '73, but they were the Oscars for 1972 so could go either way, in the Renee universe.

Mr Walsh gives Steve Miller a riff to rip off a few years later.  "Rocky Mtn Way" is an LN for me.

What *is* the Rocky Mountain way? Does it involve John Denver?

Elton John "Elderberry Wine"

ETA: Renee and company are making a concerted effort to play deeper cuts, it seems.

Seems like a lot of echo in this one. Is it an alternate version?
