great show, was waiting to hear the Gordon Lightfoot cover from Johnny Cash. I figured out the cover song that Jason was talking about. I’m not going to post it until everyone else listens to the show.
Oh, Brian! That cover by the Sundays instantly transported me back to 1996 .. my smelly, college radio station … sitting in a windowless 10 x 10 cube at 3 a.m. on a Saturday morning! THAT’S why I listen. Thanks, buddy.
Amazing Grace was written by John Newton, you have it listed as traditional.

The Lemonheads did a cover version of it on their album Hate your Friends, if you are interested in tracking down more covers of it.
Tina, we missed you all us Beatles missed you.
Wow, I lost hearing in one ear from being too close to the amps at a Flying Burritos concert and now I can hear them again; well maybe I can’t!
I’m sure everyone figured it out, but the last song that was used as the music was “The Animals – The house of the rising sun”
Great show again.
I was yelling at you over the America thing. That made me feel smart. You have an alarming familiarity with the ABBA catalogue.
