HOLY SHIT!  BOS to an Airplane bustout, "Pretty As You Feel"!

VHMFRA

who's the male voice?
Joey Covington, their drummer for this album and part of the next.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

No BOS showing, and I didn't see the electronic poll thingy on FB.  But the JA is easily Bustout of the Week.

ETA: AL sez Sweet Lou won BOS, follwed by JA and Jerry Reed ("true Foghead variety!")

OMFG!   "Pretty as You Feel" --AL comes thru with my request. uber- BOS3.  You're welcome, Gaz.
One of my favorites too.  I've always wondered about the different swirling guitar licks. Sounds a little Garcia-ish at the beginning.  Lots of different styles at work. Looks like Carlos is in the mix too.
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!

Indeed, both were in the jam session that produced this song.

very reminiscent of some of the collaborations on David Crosby's "If Only I Could Remember My Name" album from the era of the Marin County super family.
