#6 SANTANA - When I look into your eyes.


I checked Allmusic, came up with the same result. Would NOT have guessed that was Santana. But the composer was his keyboard whiz, Tom Coster, so that might explain its different sound.


Actually that woulda been my guess, tho' I can't remember ever hearing it before.

VHM Gladys


Called Dave.

Sez I:  I'm totally digging this set, and I detect a deep political subtext.

Sez Dave: Good!

Sez I: I'm thinking 10-way Tie, but if I have to give a BOS, it would go to Gladys, although I hope we can change the title to "Midnight Train to Crawford".

Sez Dave: NO SHIT!!!  (emphasis his)

A final BOS to Stevie's "Sunshine," which I associate with 1972, but hey.  It sounds dated -- it calls to mind my grandfather's old 1972 Vega that always reeked of cigar smoke -- but it's just such a heavenly melody.

OK, let me first admit freely that I have a strong and obvious bias towards sets from 1971-75.

That said, can I just say that this set F***ING RULED. Set o' the week, and if it's not, I want to hear the one that is.

we could get '67 or '68 on Fri...  (When you "set o' the week" I assume you mean "Morey set o' the week".)

I'd freely put this set up against 67 or 68.

And yeah, Morey set o' the week, being as I only just started listening to the Colorado 10@10, and confess to never having heard either of the other two (not near a computer at the right time, sorry.)

ETA: Hope Geoff was able to listen in for this--he'd have dug it.

nope, not in my cards.

Agreeing with Urth: Sets just don't get better than that.  Will listen again tonight, and will probably gush over the Broooce when I do.
