I felt the distant past...ah well not quite that distant.

...but 71 is one of the strongest years on the Big Wheel, so no complaints here. And it's Rev. Al--Lawd have mercy!!

indeed, BOS to the Rev. But "a very hip in it's time 7-11 commercial"? I'm tempted to say "there's no such animal", but we'll see. Anti-Nixon Slurpees, perhaps? "Bring the Boys Home" Burritos?

Can I offer a pre-emptive 10-way?

VHM Mr Mojo Risin', which of course is an anagram for Jim Morrison.
Of course, so is JIM SIR MORON.

Presidents being annoyed at the NY Times... the more things change...
-
Good ol' Nixon, always on top everything: "Oh, I didn't read that article."
-
So who was that - Nixon?

i'm watching germany and argentina - tied in overtime!!

Just occurred to me--when was the last time we had two early 70s (pre-76) sets back to back? Quite awhile I'm guessing.
Bosses must be out early for the holiday.

So who was that - Nixon?
How old are you? :wink:

I was hoping that the "phone call form the president" was going to be LBJ calling Thurgood Marshall, and we'd be in for 1965.
...but as soon as Don Pardo said 1971, I guessed it'd be this one.

BOS JB! It's gots to be FONKY! smothered steak... smothered STEAK!

1971 - I was 6.. I remember watching the Watergate hearings, but didn't know what they were about... til later

Nixon talking to Alexander Haig.
A while back we were talking about the Saturday Night Massacre, and you guys were right that Bork was the ultimate hatchet man, but Haig was the one who told Nixon not too worry, he'd see that it got done.

keith carradine and 7-11, united at last!

Was that Orson Welles saying "easy come, easy go" for 7-11?

As Dave has pointed out (and may well say again today): when James starts to sing about food, it's time to turn the 45 over for "Part 2".
OK if that 7-11 commercial is dave's idea of "hip", well... I'm speechless.
-
BOS for The Beach Boys. And that was one weird 7-11 commercial. Who was it? And was that "Everybody's Talking" in the background?

altho' "Student Demonstration Time" might've upset him.

I phoned in the same vote & vis a vis the 7-11 commercial I asked him if it was anyone famous. Dave said, "No that was just some mumbly-voiced announcer they had then."

Is Sweet Baby James' "Country Road" a bustout too? I have a soft spot for this song since my band covered it. It's a good song.

too many anagrams to choose from, but:
ACE FRESH MIKE

who was that going on in the environmental clip about not beating his wife, anyway?

Nope, it pops up about once a year or so. Great tune tho.

So your gonna archive it, right?
That being said, and with today being the last of the month, I am in the process of updating the Db to include the last 2 months as well as the several dozen sets that Urth had in his archives that weren't already in my Db. And a new feature in the Db wil be a mention in the Notes column if the set is Urth's archive.

Actually "Rutchik" -- missed an "i" in there. Yup, dat's my name, don't wear it out! It's Russian meaning "little hand" or "pen", from what I've heard. Used to be the family name -- my grandfather changed his name from "Max Rutchik" to "Richard Mack". He was a radio writer in the early part of the 20th century writing for Groucho Marx, among others.

Does that eliminate Argentina? I play online bridge with several people from Argentina, one of whom is an ardent fan.

Yep, they go home now. Too bad. I was hoping for them to go to the finals against England.

That's outstanding! Actually my paternal grandfather was outstanding in his field as well. Or rather he was out standing in his field - he was a farmer.

Bonus: "Stairway to Heaven" (!)

ETA: If I could have gotten through I would have picked Zep as well, but I would have asked for "When the Levee Breaks". Still, when was the last time KFOG played "Stairway..."?

Paging Darryl....
I'd have picked Slippin Into Darkness myself, but gotta say, ol' Percy et al aren't sounding too bad here. Who'd a thunk?

It got my BOS vote on da replay. The ILM Board's just recently had a spirited discussion over who has a better career body of work, Diana Ross or Donna Summer. (It's still in debate whether to count Diana's Supremes work.) What I really like about "Remember Me" is that Diana doesn't exhibit that all-consuming urge to make a song "hers"; she just sings the hell out of it where she needs to and gives others space where she needs to. One of her best from the decade, along with "My Mistake" and "The Boss."

proxy Gaz BOS, "LA Goodbye"
which is a complete Narada to me, BTW -- no NYC airplay whatsoever, I'd never heard it until Dave and Bob came along.
Thanks; it'll have to share the vote with La Ross, though. But do you know how badly I would love to produce a vocal group covering this? If you'll allow me some hubris, I think I could do some really good things with this song. (I have a few other songs in mind for which I feel the same way.)
So if I ever move back there, would anyone be interested in forming a '70s cover band, based in sunshine pop, trash singles, and bubblegum, called AM Gold? It's been a backburner dream of mine for a few years now.
-
looks like a pretty nice set:
6/30/2006 - FRIDAY!!! A good day to visit...1971!!!
1. Al Green - Tired of Being Alone
2. Doors - LA Woman
3. Ringo Starr - It Don't Come Easy
4. James Brown - Make it Funky
5. Beach Boys - Surf's Up
6. Diana Ross - Remember Me
7. James Taylor - Country Road
8. Ides of March - LA Goodbye
9. Marvin Gaye - What's Goin' On (BEST OF SET!!)
10. Bee Gees - Lonely Days
BONUS TRACK: Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven

I would if I could actually, y'know, sing.
