I may not be available to listen to this one, but here's hoping Bob keeps his streak of well-above-average sets going.

Hrm ... stream's not working -- I get the opening commercial and then silence. This is happening both on the WDRV site link and the "back door". Deep Tracks is working, tho'.  Dammit!

Whenever I hear Frampton's "I'm In You" all I can think of is John Hurt's stomach exploding in Alien.

no joke.

Well Tune #10 better bring us home with a bang, otherwise this set is pretty fair-to-middlin'.

So far:
STEELY DAN - JOSIE
FOREIGNER - STARRIDER
BOB WELCH - EBONY EYES
HEART - KICK IT OUT
DAVE MASON - WE JUST DISAGREE
FLEETWOOD MAC - DON'T STOP
TED NUGENT - CAT SCRATCH FEVER
PETER FRAMPTON - I'M IN YOU
THE SANFORD/TOWNSEND BAND - SMOKE FROM A DISTANT FIRE

ETA: Wrapped up with ELVIS COSTELLO - ANGELS WANNA WEAR MY RED SHOES, not too shabby.

1970 on tap for Monday.

Flipped over to Deep Tracks until KBCO & was rewarded with Yes "Heart of the Sunrise".  Yay Prog Rock!

Well, kudos for the Foreigner (one ya never hear) and I'd've BOS'd Heart.  All in all, Bob's had a fine week ("I'm in You" notwithstanding).

If I'd only heard the first 5 songs instead of only hearing the last 4 I'd have probably rated the set higher.

No love for "Smoke From a Distant Fire"?  Love the song, could've fit in on a Boz Scaggs album.

Oh I absolutely love SFADF -- I just don't consider it a rarity anymore. And you are right on about it being Scaggs-ish.  I was looking at my old Boz vinyl and I'd completely forgotten he did Allen Toussaint's "Freedom For The Stallion" on My Time, several years before the Hues Corp covered it.
