BOS "For Everyman". proxy for Geoff, too.


Make it a third that I've never heard.

Was a lot of early Jackson this countrified?  Might be time for me to explore that part of his catalog.


I don't really consider this countrified (now the Buffet we heard -- that was countrified) but I really urge you to delve into this LP.

boo to David Essex, this really is a '74 song, released in, like, Dec '73 in the US, tho' it was a UK hit earlier.


I'd forgotten about him being in Godspell.  My folks took us to see that off-off Broadway just weeks before the LP soundtrack came out & "Day By Day" became a hit single.

BOS for me. And yes, it kind of is. He was a contemporary of the Eagles, early in all of their careers, came out of the Troubadour folk scene in LA in the early 70s. See also Linda Ronstadt, numerous others.  Def. check out For Everyman. the album that gave us today's song (and was named for it).
Let's get right to it.

BOS to Rev. Al, another one of those cases where I heard the hit cover (UB40) before ever hearing the original.  It's happened far too often with me.

Yet another BOS, The Reverend Al.  This set is quite different from Bob's, but not any dropoff in listening quality.

Agreed. Given that Bob is probably under more pressure to "play the hits" than Ginger is, his set was amazingly good.  Ginger's propensity for digging deep is something else again.

Speaking of -- Buckingham-Nicks?  WOW!

And is this Buckingham Nicks? Sounds like The Goat to me. In any case, it's not one of the tracks that DM has played. Big props to Ginger for a very nice set of rarities and gems.

Wow, yet another obscurity, Buckingham-Nicks "Long Distance Winner", not one of the handful that Dave plays from this album.  Wonder if Ginger is going to give us an update on this LP's availability on CD like Dave always does.

BOS Amer Graffitti clip -- that "rock'n'roll's been goin' downhill ever since Buddy Holly died" is one of my favorite quotes from that movie. They omitted the "goddamn surfer shit" part, and for years I would say that whenever a Beach Boys song came on.

I'm guessing the answer is Desperado, but I'd never heard that trivia before.

Browne co-wrote Doolin' Dalton, so it's no surprise.
