BOS for Bob and my favorite song of his.

Good choice (though mine is probably Like a Rolling Stone).
Tangled up in Blue totally showcases his amazing gift for lyrics.

TANC:  They played Like a Rolling Stone yesterday afternoon on KFOG, which, unlike so much of what is played while I am working, caught my ear and reminded me just how great that song is.  Tangled is great too...

Wow, I tuned in way late (10:20), and was pleasantly surprised to find I'd really only missed one song. And Mark is right--there's not much wrong with this set from here on out.
Yes, Annalisa restarted the replay for you!  
Wasn't that nice nice very nice of her?
(Speaking of bad sneakers, I need some new Dr Scholl's inserts)
BRUUUUUUUUUCE!

I think I hear Mr. "Yammo Be There" singing background in this, correct?  (that's Michael McDonald, of course)

Dayam!  Bob, Dan and Bruce.  Hard to beat.

Hey guys, this is a classic classic.  No spoilers yet, but get ready to give just about every remaining tune a BOS vote.  Some real rarites are in store.



OK, "BTR" for the umpteenth time was not what I had in mind...

Yes, '75 is when he and Jeff "Skunk" Baxter were with the Dan, then they both went over to the Doobies for awhile.

You betcha you do--you can hardly miss him. Katy Lied was almost a MM solo album.
Let's get right to it.

YEA, Disco Tex and the Sex-O-Lettes featuring Sir Monti Rock III (C'mon, it's the free love '70's!  Let's party!). Here's the full 7-min version (Parts 1 & 2):

Skunk is now a self-taught missile defense expert (seriously) who is more than happy to give talks and testimony when called upon from his hawkish Fed Gov't friends.

and Disc-O-Texx was DEFINITELY not what i had in mind.  WOS to a truly horrendous record by the most famous Puerto Rican hairdresser in history. and it's the looong version -- Dave's chiffon is wet.
