T'aint no big thing to give VHM to Roxy, even if BF's voice is at its least sexy here (indeed, he sounds more like D Byrne on this track to my ears).

If "Takin' It to the Streets" can withstand butcherings by Taylor Hicks and the team of Tom Jones & Teddy Pendergrass, it must be a classic.

Oh, wait: It couldn't.  Never mind.

Who'd'a thunk this guy would end up duetting with Grace Slick?

BTW, I saw the Patti Smith interview in the 40th anniv Rolling Stone issue -- she has much praise for ol' Grace.

"some things will never change..."  Becker & Fagen singing about their future placements in every 1976 10@10.

I would have expected "Philadelphia Freedom" rather than "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" after the bicentennial festivities.  But this is fun to hear, still.

BOS EJ & KD, a fab pop confection that didn't belong in Dave's HFH set.  Elton should re-do this as a duet with David Hyde-Pierce.
