Bob will have a hard time topping Rob in this side-by-side comparison...

But I'm betting "Run Like Hell" makes a 2nd appearance.  Interestingly, we're hearing Petty's "Refugee" pre-set.

OMGWTF! Eagles, "the Greeks Don't Want No Freaks"!  BOS just 'cause I don't think we've EVER heard it on any 10@10. Elvis Costello meets the Swingin' Medallions.

wow, live Cheap Trick, and it ain't "IWYTWM"!  "Surrender" for a change.  Bob (or the guy who's subbing for him) is giving Rob a run for his money so far.

wow again -- the inevitable Supertramp, but it's "Just Another Nervous Wreck", maybe the least-played song on the LP.  This is a most impressive set so far.

"Head Games" followed by the Mother of all '79 Katrinas, "Cruel to be Nick Lowe".

and another rarity: Poco, sounding very Eagles-like on "Heart of the Night". We usually get "Crazy Love" from this LP.
