BOS2 Donovan, "Season of the Witch". Nice to hear this outside of Dave's "spooktacular".  So many different people to be...

Nice to think that plaid umbrella led me to a perfect pop single. BOS3 Hollies.

My BOS has to be Sloop John B.

Sherriff John Stone, why don't you leave me alone?

BOS4 Electric Prunes, one of THE great rock singles of the era.  But I still wanna hear the Jerry Vale version...

Especially after adding The Who & Paul Revere.  Awesome set!

indeed.  Mark, if you can hear the Peak's replay tonite, I highly recommend their excellent 1977 set -- they haven't posted the list yet, but it was choice.

Wow, three of my absolute all-time fave songs in one set--And Your Bird Can Sing, Bus Stop, and Substitute. Sets like this might almost make it worth getting to work an hour early. Almost.
Let's get right to it.

Hey Urth, next time you're taking a coffee break there at CNet & one of the most tech savvy gurus walks by, ask him how soon we can expect to be able stream audio in our cars?

Yo Mark, I ran into Wayne, our car tech guy this morning while I was brewing my first cup of tea of the day, so I posed him your question. He said it will depend on how soon broadband tech for cellphones (G3) becomes widely available, and he said you'd more likely be able to get audio streams on your phone before they're adapted into your car.

He came by my desk a few minutes later and said he thought that was a pretty good question, and he might use it for our "Ask the Editors" feature one day soon. So I'll let ya know when it posts. I'm sure his official explanation will be a lot more detailed than mine.
