Emerging from my belladonic haze to give this one a BOS, along with The Real Me.

Excellent start, sez I.
Let's get right to it.

Freddie saying he loved a million women is quite hilarious.  :)

Eh, it was '73. Was anyone truly out in popular music then? Maybe Little Richard?

still more Odd Couple --> Faces "Ooh la la" -- BOS3 from me. One of the great "shouldabeens" of the '70s.

And another BOS for me as well. Hope they finally make that Faces reunion tour happen before another member kicks it. It's been talked about for years now.

Blondie Chaplin FTW. And multiple members of Chicago backing this one, too. (They had quite the mutual admiration society going on back then.)

Btw, just found out yesterday the Beach Boys (the Mike Love version) will be at the Oregon State Fair on Labor Day. Might be worth checking that out.

Cleopatra Jones -->  "Across 110th St"!!  uber-uber-BOS6; too bad Mr Womack had to die to get this song on 10@10.  It's a helluva tester!
