Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

If you ask me, there's a reason it always starts with the seventies...
  Wed. 4/25/18 9:09pm JakeGould:

It’s sinful.
  Wed. 4/25/18 9:14pm JakeGould:

This is too rock and roll crazy.

  Wed. 4/25/18 9:18pm dano59:

There has to be a reason? That was the era in which I was mostly raised on radio, but I still relate more to the cultural explosion of the '60s.
  Wed. 4/25/18 9:22pm JakeGould:

I for one mainly see the 1980s as an amazing era because that is when I was a teenager.

i'll drink to that

Western Civilization peaked in 1969. But the end times can be kicky.
  Wed. 4/25/18 9:26pm JakeGould:

Love beach!
  Wed. 4/25/18 9:27pm ?:

Love Beach - I've seen the cover so many times but never heard the song.
  Wed. 4/25/18 9:27pm dano59:

That's how it works Jake ... I kind of devote all my own explorations to the 60s but! Thx to folks like Evan I get to discover things my AM Top 40
Avatar Swag For Life Member 🎃 Wed. 4/25/18 9:31pm medson:

It does look like a Bee Gees album cover
Avatar 🎃 Wed. 4/25/18 9:32pm Mailman Tom:

That's funny, Evan.
  Wed. 4/25/18 9:37pm Stevel:

So, were they goofing with that cover, didn't care or had too much cocaine?

My phone won't auto fill "cocaine". Jesus.
  Wed. 4/25/18 9:40pm Stevel:

I grew up on top 40 and am rock from 1970 through 75. Top 40 was a relatively broad category. Alice Cooper was my real rock and roll entry drug. School's Out, in fifth grade.

your phone is so straight-edge! He didn't really elaborate on the cover, my guess it was mainly the latter two of your three possibilities.

@efd how may people came out to that show. great story btw.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 🎃 Wed. 4/25/18 9:43pm Kat in Chicago:

Rats, sounds like I missed Carl Palmer chat.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/25/18 9:43pm efd:

i think capacity of the auditorium is 400-450 and it was pretty full but not sold out as far as I could tell.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/25/18 9:43pm DC:

Sounding great, enjoyied the whips. Some nice guitarwork, and some subtle creative chordsmanship with the 1 6m 4 3
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/25/18 9:48pm efd:

thanks DC, I'll take your word for it on those chord changes! :D

Kat, you did indeed! The archive will fill you in later.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 🎃 Wed. 4/25/18 9:49pm Kat in Chicago:

It'll have to. I don't even remember what "Love Beach" sounds like.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/25/18 9:50pm efd:

Some great spinnin' efd, as usual.

Bummed I'm missing record fair, but happy to know I won't be spending a ton on records : )
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/25/18 10:03pm efd:

missing the record fair is definitely a money-saving event
Avatar Wed. 4/25/18 10:03pm John from Madison:

Great, when you said a later Yes song that's the first one that came to mind.. Thanks
  Wed. 4/25/18 10:11pm dano59:

The fair is there for what you missed out on last Saturday
  Wed. 4/25/18 10:13pm dano59:

I don't think I've ever heard Love Beach but I was a fan of the ELP bombast via Works 1
Avatar Swag For Life Member 🎃 Wed. 4/25/18 10:14pm melinda:

I remember this but haven't thought of it in a long time. Nice.
  Wed. 4/25/18 10:15pm dano59:

Oh man I LURV 999. Grazie!
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/25/18 10:23pm efd:

@dano59 (and melinda) my pleasure!
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 4/25/18 10:24pm efd:

dano you probably would have enjoyed the version of "Fanfare For The Common Man" the other night, complete with epic 15-minute drum solo
Avatar Swag For Life Member 🎃 Wed. 4/25/18 10:29pm medson:

Good night, catch the rest on the archives.
Show is sounding great Evan
  Wed. 4/25/18 10:29pm DouglasInDallas:
