Well, Spiral Starecase is a big a 'trina as Steam, I s'pose. But I like it a whole lot more and am determined to karaoke it someday.

BOS2 from me, but it's way too high in tenor-tory for me to attempt it.

and I just noticed that "Starecase" (a classic '60s wrong-spelling-on-purpose) is misspelled "Staircase" in the shraytabase.  Get on that, wouldya Mark? ;)

WOS "Oh Darling" -- (a) it's one of my least-fave Beatles songs because (b) they ripped off Charles Brown and (c) Little Steven played it last nite and once a month is plenty.

Wow, you're right, I just checked my Whitburn Top 40 book and had never caught that correct spelling before.  Amazing what you learn from 10at10!

BOS Bread "Dismal Day" -- I *do* remember this. Very nice. Rather Association-ish.

BOS3 to Tommy!

afterthought:  I'd have to be listening on big living room stereo speakers for this to overtake Junior Walker today.

What?

is the stream that far behind the over-the-air version? You posted your BOS3 a full minute before the Bread song ended on my stream.

What version is this?  It definitely sounds different than what I'm used to.

"Underture" (am I correct?)

It's Underture all right, but not the one that appears on the original LP, unless I'm very much mistaken.  Or maybe I'm just confusing it with the Overture.  That could be it...
