Jonanthan Edawrds, layin' around da shanty and gettin' a good buzz on.
-
The gods of music are out to get me this morning. Sorry, Dave, I'm sure you're a nice guy, I just can't appreciate your musical aesthetic.

BOS from me -- a fab tribute to the '50s just as that particular nostalgia craze was beginning to pick up steam. Mr Edmunds knows his shit, bub.
-
VHM Willard!
BOS2 Pink Floyd, "Run Like He--", er, I mean, "One of These Days".
-
Floyd!!!!
-
Mike, "Carey"'s gotta be making your week, eh? VHM from me.
-
OMFG! Joni, "All I Want" BOS3! Blue may be one of my very favorite LPs of all time.
-
Mike, "Carey"'s gotta be making your week, eh? VHM from me.
oops, wrong Joni!
ETA: I adore the Blue album, don't get me wrong, but there is a definite sameness to the arrangements.
-

LOL! I thought it was "Carey" too for a sec. But I'll take "All I Want".
-
Those big chords that start "Reason to Believe" always stir something in me.
-
VHM Rod -- wish somebody'd play his version of RTB back-to-back with the Carpenters'.
-
BOS4 Dead -- since I so often dis their later stuff. This period was when I actually loved them.
-
BOS5 Archie & Maude -- I'd love to change the world indeed.
-
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence could've gotten dude's mind right.
-
Great segue: Archie debating FDR with Maude into "I'd Love to Change the World."

I'm not a big fan of the SOPI. The Chron had one of their neocon women (Cinnamon Debra Stillwell Saunders) complaining the other day that the Sisters are "juvenile" and frankly I found myself agreeing.
-
BOS6 "Oh Yoko". It's been quite a morning for the "Songs Dave's Never Played" contingent. But hey -- that's why there are 4 times zones!
-
BOS John-Oh Yoko.
In the middle of the night....
-
Holy Flaming Mother of God, this has been a great set! BOS7 (!) Stones, "Moonlight Mile". Ginger I love you!
-
and yet another BOS--Stones, Moonlight Mile. This song is almost ethereal. Hard to believe it's the Stones.
I've got silence on my radio, let the airwaves flow....
-

Helluva set, too busy to listen too carefully or post much.
ultra BOS "Moonlight Mile".
Have to listen to everything on the replay tonight.
-
BOS8 Nilsson!! I'm exhausted! Doodly-doot-doo-doot!
-
BOSX+1, Nilssson, Me and My Arrow.
Some of the vocal harmonies on the bridge sort of recall the Finn Brothers...er, vice versa.

Ten Years After/I'd Love to Change the World
There was a morning show discussion about something a few days ago and callers were talking about songs and relevance to something or other (how vague can I be?) and a caller mentioned this song and Dave did not hide his distaste for it.

I believe the part that Dave took exception with was the allusion to "dykes and fairies." The full line is:
Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me where is sanity
I can't say I blame him for taking issue, particularly at the time that came out.

actually, I'd argue that in '71 folks were nowhere near as "enlightened" as they are now. It was only 2 years after Stonewall, the Gay Liberation Movement was barely gearing up at that point. Despite all the "peace & love" rhetoric, the counterculture was as homophobic and sexist as the culture it was supposedly counter-ing.

I hate to say this to you Urth, because you know I love like a brother, but you just did one of my biggest pet peeves: mis-using the word allude or allusion.
You can't allude to something that is actually stated, allusions are made to things which are hinted at or implied, often through a metaphor. For some reason over the past 20 years or so Every. Single. Color Commentator in Every. Single. Sports broadcast insists on saying that his partner just "alluded" to something when in fact it was stated clearly and directly.

Why, yes. You're right.

Sorry for the rant, it was only triggered by your post, but not aimed at you. Figured copy editors would actually understand.
Plus which I'm having a tension-filled week.
