The Mighty Zep leads off -- and when Percy gives you all of his love, that's saying something. BOS1

greetings, Tim the Enchanter!  BTW, Spamalot is coming to SF soon.

BOS3 "Tusk" -- still one of the ballsiest moves ever by a multi-platinum act, releasing this as the leadoff single from an LP.

rarity of the week: Billy Thorpe, "Children of the Sun". I find it rather awful, but proxy of shray, iirc. Bob's the only one who plays this one.

"Cruel to be Kind" is an across-the-board katrina at this point, but one I'll always have affection for. Play it back-to-back with the Fortunes' "Here Comes That Rainy day Feeling Again" sometime.

To (sorta) quote Little Steven, this was the best song in the world for me for a couple weeks.  Love the production!

BOS VH, the first song where the Diamond Dave persona came to the forefront, iirc.
