My favorite year! Well, one of 'em, anyway...
Pre-set bonus: the 'oo, "Bellboy"! Always runnin' at someone's bleedin' 'eels... you know 'ow I feels..."
-
"Sweet, sweet Connie...she had the how show & that's a natural fact."
BOS #1 Grand Funk.

"Sweet, sweet Connie...she had the how show & that's a natural fact."
BOS #1 Grand Funk.
is that "whole show" or 'ho show? :wink:
OMFG! S&C, "Hummingbird". Those wacky Ba'hai folks, worshipping birds. BOS for novelty alone.

I spent a few minutes yesterday watching a pair of hummingbirds flying around the flowers in my backyard.
BOS #2 Seals & Crofts.
-
BOS1, ZZTop, when they were fresh.

"whole", jeez my typing sucks!

Have Mercy!!!
BOS #3, "Waiting for the Bus/Jesus Just Left Chicago" (at least I'm pretty sure Bob will give us this as a twin spin).
ETA: Ayup!
"You might not see him in person, but he'll see you just the same. You don't have to worry, 'cause takin' care of business is his name."

VHM, The pompatus of love.

Some people call him Maurice. We call him "that guy Gaz doesn't like".

cook it!
when they were still a band
-
BOS2 "Boddhisatva". Another major religion covered. It's an ecumenical set!
Quick, think of a song from '73 that mentions Jews.
-
Woo Hoo! BOS3 "Frahnkensteen"
-
BOS #5, "The Double Drum Solo Song", or as Rick Derringer suggested they call it, "Frankenstein".
-
Woo Hoo! BOS3 "Frahnkensteen"
-
BOS4 ELP. Still, they turn me on.
-
I was listening to ELP as I drove into work today, but this song didn't come up. BOS #6 "Still...You Turn Me On"
Hey Gaz, how about a list of songs containing an ellipsis?
-
Flashback of set, the Ford 'That's Incredible' jingle.
-
Nixon had a Man Date? With who?
OMGWTFLOL! "Painted Ladies"! Ian Thomas BOS5. I'm guessing this was big in the Midwest?

I have heard this before, but it was not one of those minor songs to become a "KSHE Classic". Sounds very fresh though.

Gimme 3 Steps, gimme BOS6.
Bob's string of excellent sets continues.

Nationally, it peaked at #34, and got only a smattering of East Coast play. Ian Thomas was Canadian, so I figured this was an upper-midwest crossover hit.

And Tune #10 is only the second in the set that I wouldn't give a BOS vote to.
Great set, but something other than "Gimme Two Steps" would have made it a Stellar set. Like maybe "Tuesday's Gone", or "Mississppi Kid" or "I Ain't the One".

You're one step short of the door, partner...

And Tune #10 is only the second in the set that I wouldn't give a BOS vote to.
Great set, but something other than "Gimme Two Three Steps" would have made it a Stellar set. Like maybe "Tuesday's Gone", or "Mississppi Kid" or "I Ain't the One".
You're one step short of the door, partner...
Ooops!

I was listening to ELP as I drove into work today, but this song didn't come up. BOS #6 "Still...You Turn Me On"
Hey Gaz, how about a list of songs containing an ellipsis?
Michael Bolton, "Said I Loved You ... But I Lied"
Michael Bolton, "Can I Touch You ... There?"
Britney Spears, "... Baby One More Time" (though the ellipses were truncated during its chart run)
Chicago, "If She Would Have Been Faithful ..." (I can't believe I remember that one; it was the 1985 follow-up to "Will You Still Love Me")
Bonus Tracks: the only two charting songs (to my knowledge) with em dashes:
"River Deep—Mountain High"
"Heartbeat—It's a Lovebeat"
-
Glad I got home in time for the replay, this is almost One For The Ages. Co-BOS votes to "Grey Seal" (one of my favorite Taupin lyrics, and the song still evokes walking through the Tenderloin in the fall of '96) and "Painted Ladies." Had the latter been in a 1978-1981 set, I'd've thought it was the Little River Band, as I've only heard this once or twice before.
