Less katrinas than Dave gave us last week, I'm hoping. But we begin by taking our baby by the hand, and making her do a high hand-stand. Or something.

SRV's "Couldn't Stand the Weather" get s a BOS from me: I was so into this guy -- he made the blues cool again for me... his amazing guitarosity (plus his pop music "cred" vis a vis David Bowie) put him in high rotation. Saw him perform twice: two of my top concert experiences.

Was he getting radio play where you were, while he was alive? In NYC I was unaware of him until he died, then the floodgates opened.
BOS Cure, "Love Cats". Hissssssssssssss!

VHM and proxy of shray: Mr Cockburn in a dangerous time.

BOS2 Style Council, of course. They're the best thing, all right.

Echoing this BOS vote and that for "The Lovecats." Hand in hand is the only way to land!

Yes, up in Rochester, NY: 96.5 WCMF played him a lot. I also caught him on PBS's Austin City Limits in the summer of 85, perhaps? When I heard he was going to open for Dire Straits later that summer in Toronto, I got tix and we drove up to see him. He blew Dire Straits away on pure performance. (During DS's set, the lights apparently weren't cooperating, and Mark Knopfler apologized, saying it's too bad, b/c they're really cool, etc..) I paid my Money for Nothing!
I also saw SRV on one of the NYC Hudson Piers in the Spring of '89. By then he had dried out and I swear he wasn't as good on stage.
RIP Stevie!

BOS3 to one of the very few Born in the USA tracks to not become a hit single, "Workin' on the Highway." Perhaps it's the only one that couldn't have been a hit ("Downbound Train" and "Bobby Jean" still sound like hits to my ears).
-
OMFG! BOS3 a Brooooce rarity, "Working on the Highway". VHM Kate & Allie.

yah, not the best Cars track. But speaking of guitarists, that Elliot Easton is pretty hot. And he plays left-handed, too.

BOS4 and proxy of Shray to "Whisper to a Scream."
-
yeah, some more "80s" music to go w the Wang Chung Dance Hall Days! (which I missed in this set, but still love)
BOS Whisper... by Icicle Works, correct?
-
VHM live Nevilles -- another rarity.

Ayup. And now, more synthy goodness, DMode in their first try at "People Are People" (a few years later, a re-release with a new video would send it into the Top 40).
-
off to a 10:00 meeting -- enjoy Dave, kids!

Dang, I could not get the stream to load. I should have heard the last 3-4 tunes.
