U2's "Pride (In the Name of Love)" unsurprisingly kicks off the set. I wonder if Dave is dusting off Stevie Wonder's "Black Man."

Well, "Black & White" is a nice choice. I suspect this will be a bit lighter than Dave's.
I'd love for either to play the Chevy Chase/Richard Pryor "Word Association" bit, followed by Sly's "Don't Call Me Nigger. Whitey".

This ism, that ism, ism-ism-ism.
BTW Gaz, i started listening to that '74 CG chart show -- you'll get to hear Andy Williams' take on "Solitaire", which actually charted in the UK that year, more than a year before the Carpenters had the US hit with that Neal Sedaky, by cracky, tune.

HM to Rod Stewart's vocal on "People Get Ready," a/k/a, "the last time he really tried."
-
BOS the Rascals fab "People Got To Be Free" -- inspired by the assassinations and unrest of '68 and released ASAP by Atlantic.
VHM the Cat Man.

Most unexpected of set: "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother."
Did McCartney say "Blackbird" was written with Black America in mind? I thought that had been a Manson misread?
-
VHM Hollies, "He Ain't Heavy". This has been a nice surprise, and certainly a different tack (less confrontational) than what Dave does -- easy on the speeches, heavy on the feel-good brotherhood sentiments. Dunno what "Blackbird" is doing here -- is there a connection I'm unaware of?

That's news to me. Tho' it might explain why Dionne Ferris covered it.

OMG! post-set music: "San Jose's own" People!

And Sylvester! (The Princess sent me an MP3 of this ages ago, and now I can't find it.)
