O snail
Climb Mt. Preston

It's a hard world to get a break in
That live album was some good stuff.

I remember really liking that show and can barely remember anything else about it than that.

Great picks, Margie.

The thing about THE WILD, THE INNOCENT… is: that was pretty much the last time you were going to hear that direction Springsteen was going in. Miami Steve started really shaping him toward more standard rock songs with a more standard length and away from the stretched out, hairpin turns sort of songwriting which was

Hubert Sumlin = many, many, many shades of awesome.

God I hope they're back
I want something of HELLO NASTY quality, at least.

Trollin' on the rivah.
