Thanks Dave. Put a spell on me anytime with your 70's sets.
-
BOS Stones, love it when they get that horn section wailin'.
-
A promising set so far!
1. Redbone's 'The Witch Queen of New Orleans', (two years before their big hit "Come and Get Your Love").
2. Stones - All Down The Line
3. Alice Cooper - Elected
-
BOS Stones and into a timely Elected. Yeah, I want to be elected.
We're all gonna rock to the rules that I make.
-
"Convention '72"!
-
"Do you agree Mr. Kissinger?"
"Gotta find a woman, gotta find a woman, gotta find a woman."
-
"Convention '72"!
I remember this very clearly from when I was 9 yrs old.

As do I. Great flashback year.

HA! BOS1 to Stones, BOS2 to Alice, BOS3 to this election 72 thingy.
esp for the brief Joe Tex appearance...
-
VHM for Todd "Hello It's Me" as I head back to my hole.

HM from me. Gotta ditch a woman, gotta ditch a woman, gotta ditch a woman ...

Should have seen the Dan's "Kings" coming as continuation of today's theme.
ETA: I bet we end with "Smiling Faces Sometimes" or "Backstabbers."
-

A welcome spin. Another BOS
-
"The Dan" for Prez!
-

BOS #3, this is a very subtle piece of commentary, given that John was far worse than Richard, so much so that in 800 yrs since the English have never had a John II.
-
I don't know Steely Dan's non-heavy rotation stuff that well, so this kind of song in a 10@10 set is what can make a set special. gimme that obscure stuff!

Also a great drinking song, if you follow the instructions in the lyrics.

I'd like Backstabbers. Such a great year, too many options.
-
BOS to the marvelous production of "I'll Be Around."
-
Pure pop paradise, and I know Gaz wholeheartedly agrees, BOS#4 the Spinners.
The call & response between the strings & horns on the bridge is maybe my favorite 30 seconds of pop arrangement of all time.

In case you haven't noticed it yet, Tinka, you are in a hotbed of Dan Fanatics here. Gaz & POC even more than I.
-
NFW, I missed "Kings"??? Rats. BOS even though I didn't hear it.

I have picked up on that, heh heh... and of course "obscure stuff" is relative. ;)
BOS4 to the Spinners.
... and if the Eagle's "Peaceful Cheesy Feeling" isn't a Katrina, it sure sounds like it should be.

hey Davefish & Alicat, have your kids already started school this week?
Mine did on Monday, their first experience of public school. So far so good, but I just can't get used to the idea of school before Labor Day.
-
Chi Coltrane 'Thunder & Lightning'!
-
VHM to spiced Chi!

They did. Ella just started middle school, so it's a time of much drama. But she seems to be doing fine. And I think Nathan feels a bit more distinct being the only person at his school, and near the top to boot.

It's a good thing. All is well in the Alicat-sphere. They're there, I'm here. Quiet house. At least for a few more hours. I started a blog about a year ago and JUST added a new post. Want to try keeping up with it. Just random commentary from time to time.

BOS Thunder and Lightening.
-
Yessongs, you're on...
-

Oddly enough it's actually a bustout, as far as the Db goes. Hoodathunkit?
BOS #5 Yes!
-
Another BOS for "Long Distance Runaround". A tremendous set.

I think he means that Nathan enjoys not having his big sis in the same school as him now.

Yah, dat's what I meant. I knew that didn't really come out right, but was too lazy to fix it.

VHM for Public Schooling

In terms of anti-Katrina-ness, this was really a set for the ages.
I have 49 sets from '72 in my Db, and both The Delegates & The Eagles were bustouts. Every other song had only 2, 3 or 4 previous appearances.
At first I thought "Peaceful Easy Feeling" was a surprising bustout, but actually Dave just doesn't play the Eagles that much. F'rinstance, the Dwight Twilley entry is right above the Eagles, and Dave has played "I'm On Fire" more often than any two Eagles songs.
-
BOS Thunder and Lightening.
While reviewing property page of our claims application, I noticed that a Loss Cause droplist included "Lightening". I suppose dark paint fading (on a vehicle, or a building) could be considered a cause of loss, but I changed the value to "Lightning" anyway...

Most impressive -- I look forward to the replay. But (and you KNEW I'd say this): Dave has played "Convention '72" at least once; I know I taped a set that contained it back in '96 because I needed that track for a political mixtape I was making. But it's quite the rarity, that's for sure.

Mark, I hope you saw what I blogged about them (and this song) last week:
