TOTHC and GazWOS: GFR, gettin' Loco.
What was Todd smoking when he dreamed this up?
-
I know it's only "Bang a Gong," but I like it.
-
"Rebel Rebel "makes it's 2nd appearance of the week, followed by da Stones, "IORnR(BILI)".
-
Free yo' lady, Marmalade.
-
Do we DQ Creole Lady Marmalade since she didn't hit the chart till '75?
-
Free yo' lady, Marmalade.
Is that the line? Paging Mondegreen Headquarters, we've got a live one!

We've discussed this before, remember? -- it's "Creole Lady Marmalade" but for years I thought Patti was exhorting that pasty-faced businessman to "free yo' Lady Marmalade".
VHM BTO TCB

if you're easy at fishin' you can be a musician...
BOS BTO TCB (I like writing that!)
-

Bob's on the "when the LP was released" plan, usually (he plays Gary W's "Dreamweaver" and "Love Is Alive" in '75 all the time).

I think he must have been abstaining, which was the problem. If he were stoned it would have sounded ten times better!

Wow, I don't remember that conversation at all. Yikes.
Anyway, VHM to "Ol' 55." Funny that I find the most believable Eagles vocal the one they didn't write.

WOS to one of my least-favorite covers (and to my perspective, one of the most cynical): "Another Caturday Night."
-
Another Saturday night, another showing of "David Hartman's Birth & Babies". EEK!
BOS the Cat Man, a rather inspired cover IMHO, tho' I know Gaz disagrees.

cynical? in what way?

In 1974 I was in 7th grade & we had this really hip music teacher, Ms. Mickens, who was black in a lily white school district, and she subscribed to some kind of Pop music eduation prgram where every week she'd get a just-released 45, along with score for her & lyric sheets for us, and we'd practice them as part of our class every Thursday.
Among those songs was Cat man's "Another Saturday Night".
-
Frankly, I think EC shot the deputy too.

BTO TCB Jinx!
BOS2 Ms King, singing to her Maidenform bra one mo' time. And the Gaz Man's testifyin'!

Other songs we did included America "Lonely People", OMD "Jackie Blue", Elton "Bennie & The Jets" & Neil Sedaka "The Immigrant".

a faithless man believes...that Carole King gets the last BOS of the hour.

In the sense of going WAY out of character to score a hit with a cover-by-numbers. Just seemed like a record exec's idea: "Hey, Cat, we need some new product to push this greatest-hits set, why don'tcha work up this happy song?"
No fewer than 4 covers in this set, by my count: GFR, Cat, Crapton, and Iggles.

Hip teachers rule! Did you discuss the fact that "The Immigrant" was about John Lennon?

Don't recall that, mostly we were learning how to sing 4-part harmony. Don't think I have heard that song since.

Well, yeah, but you've just described half the hit covers in chart history. Indeed its being out-of-character is what makes it seem inspired to me (like many of the best remakes). Love the arrangement & the horns.
