      Fact! That's an opinion! Another opinion- thought Rory and his band might've been the epitome of what's influenced really bad interpretations of the blues. That was some tremendously white shit. That shuffle was so butt-clinched I could picture bikers and guys with acid washed jeans and reeboks playing air guitar. That song essentially created a whole genre of white guys fresh off a bong hit thinking they could do THAT. Because they could.

    Two weeks of repeats followed (They were numbered 72 and 73 - first time the show went into repeats - shows 46 & 49) so the next episode will be numbered #74 (- all comedy show hosted by David Steinberg) and since there's a Monty Python segment (not sure if it was a film clip or a live performance of some of the members) it may be edited - they have had issues in the past.

      Thanks for clarifying that. I looked at the complete lists and I see the gap of 2 weeks. Really looking forward to the ANne Murray hosted show in 2 weeks with Wet Willie, Country Joe and Golden Earring doing Radar Love. Hope GE is not a repeat of the Little Richard episode. Do you know more on that?
