Jon,
Bowie may have been huge then, but has he EVER been bigger than Jagger?
I don't think so.
Think I like the Roger Taylor version better than Springsteen!
Mike
Could be because the cover of the single had Bowie on the left and Jagger on the right. Could be that Bowie was really huge then due to "Let's Dance", but he did have another album come out in '84 which wasn't as big. Maybe Bowie * Jagger sounds better than Jagger and Bowie. Maybe it was done alphabetically. Maybe nobody cares?
Anyhow, here's the Roger Taylor version. There was no official video, so you don't have to watch.
Jon's right about True Detective, I have no clue what's goin' on at this point.
It's obvious you don't live in Georgia. It's been summer here for three months. Still, this show was boss! Let me tell you why:
Here Comes The Sun by The Beatles. Honestly, it's never been a particular favorite of mine, but I enjoyed it none the less. Do you ever get the feeling George was slightly underutilized during the band's tenure?
Summer Breeze - What a cool cover by The Isley Brothers. Believe it or not, I think I own the album that this song comes from. And how cool is the lead guitar riff in this song? Way cool, that's how cool it is.
And we get a shout out to Jon. Maybe we should just start calling him the Spoiler. This has got to be the greatest set you've ever played. Not because of the songs. I for one agree with Jon that those first two you played are pretty crappy. But you wrapped it up with a song by The Boss and it's the greatest ever because you intentionally played songs to annoy Jon. I don't think you've ever admitted to doing that before. He can really get under the skin, right?
Heck, I even liked the closing instrumental. It came out the year I was born, and I believe I remember it playing on the overhead speakers that night in the delivery room :-)
I'll give the Golden Pell to The Boss. I may have heard that before, but I don't particularly remember it, so it qualifies.
Nice work brother.
I think this show was trying to tell me something. There was an ad for a funeral home on the Spreaker page and that feels like an omen. Guess I should call them and get things done?
I felt like having a lollipop while listening to that first song. Don't know why.
Don't think I've ever heard that Isley Brothers version before. But it sure does rock out more than the Seals & Crofts version. Both versions are fine though.
Just hanging around, reading stuff and then......
WAS THAT MY NAME??????? WTFH??????
Oh. Yeah. I deserved that.
But I sure as poop didn't deserve that next song. That was soooooooooooo MEAN!!!!!!
Yet, I deserved it. I can take it. I just can't take that song.
I like that Bowie/Jagger song, but not the video. Pretty bad video.
Did you know that Roger Taylor from Queen did a cover version of that BS song? It's off his "Strange Frontier" album.
I must say that this was an interesting show. I guess I won't tell you what happened on "True Detective" because I really have no clue what's happening.
PEACE OUT!!!!
