My Favorite Year.
not exactly a TOTH "cooker": "Knockin' on Heaven's Door". But I remember thinking it was kinda cool that it was a Top 20 at the time.

Still, still cooking with Macca "Jet", the song everyone in 6th grade thought was about me, his "...much later..." line sounds a lot like he's singing "...mark schroeder..."
-
another BOS to Macca, who thought the major was a lady. Maybe he knew Desmond, Molly, and Mademoiselle Kitty.

heading into 10-way-tie territory with Paul Simon, one of the 3 or 4 LPs that got me thru '73, emotionally.
-
nice segue from talking about Watergate to Rhymin' Simon.
...and when I was the President, and the Congress called my name...

Were you already out by then? I don't recall ever hearing your story.

the wonderful Dixie Hummingbirds, who sing backing vox on LMLAR, did their own version of the song in '73, and KPOO's JJ plays it occasionally.
OMG! ELP! BOS5 or 6. Seven virgins and a mule! Keep it cool!
-
Bob is
5 fer 5 6 fer 6, 'sfar as I'm concerned. Uber BOS "Karn Evil #9, First Impression, Pt 2."

Paging Rod for the J. Geils Band!
So they don't go silent on Thursdays any more?

no no far from it.
But in '73 (in chronological order):
My Mom died
I got my first part-time job
I graduated High school
I started college.
So it's a milestone year in so many ways that just about any song from that year resonates. And Rhymin' Simon, Innervisions and For Everyman are LPs that I played endlessly.
-

They do when the "Thursday Artist Potrait" involves only one artist. But lately they've been splitting it between two, and then the no-streaming rule doesn't apply. So thank god for double-bills, long may they wave.

ooooh! the loooooooooong version! This is one Fab. Yoo. Luss. set.
and it continues with BJ, "Piano Man". Include this LP on my list from earlier.

Even though Bob has not yet surprised us within anything that is not a classic Album Rock staple, this is turning into a set of greatness after the first 8 songs.
BOS #8 "Piano Man"

does anyone know what a "real-estate novelist" is? Is he a real-estate broker who writes novels? Or a novelist who writes about real-estate?
-
Hey Gaz, can we get a M3S triplet out of songs, such as this one, where the lyrics contains a quoted bit of dialogue addressed to the singer?
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me," as the smile ran away from his face...
-
Alice sez "No More Mr Nice Guy". I say 10-way tie for sure.

I always took that to mean he was a real-estate guy whose contracts & whatnot, were somewhat fictional. I.E. a somewhat disreputable businessman.
BOS #9, Alice Cooper. "...I'm gettin' mean!"

Stones, Fool to Cry
You know what she says?
She say, "Oo, Daddy, you're a fool to cry
Isleys take us home! hope this is another loooong version.

I just thought of another, ABC's "Look of Love": ...and my friends say, "Martin, someday you'll find true love."

Not quite what I meant, the lyric would have to be someone calling Mick by name, not Daddy. See above ABC lyric.

Seems to be. Damn fine set. Best I've heard from Bob this year, maybe ever.

Loved the Isleys at the end, at the midpoint of their peak ('71-'75). Should have closed it out with the Don Pardo soundbite, "Solid, Jackson!"
Direct-address songs: Hm, that's a good one. Can you count spoken-word intros? If so, Aretha's "Angel" comes to mind. Also, Harry Chapin's "There Only Was One Choice," in which a *greek chorus* calls Harry by name to reinvigorate him (yes, the whole 13-minute song is that overblown).

an overblown Harry Chapin song? no, really? :wink:
I love many of his songs but he had his pretentious side and it sometimes got the better of him.

Since you mentioned Harry Chapin, I'm surprised you didn't call out Taxi (that we heard locally a few weeks back), and the line from his fare:
"and she said, 'how are ya, Harry?" and I said "how are ya, Sue?"
