i LOVE "The Onion Field" but "Turtle Bait" never did much for me one way or
the other. the mysterious "Carolyn Wheeler's Birthday Present" is an
unfortunate JBC classic that i do wish never saw the light of day (despite
my curiosities about it, duly noted to this list about a year ago)

Dream Set? Hmm, as with most people, my choices are destined to change
with mood and season. However, "Soul Happy Hour," "Harlan," "Just Like
Betty
Page," "Big Old Wind," and "The Good Ones," are five standards. And I'd
love
to hear the moody thrum of the never-mentioned "Rosemary Davis'..." as an
opener, complete with a fog machine and some lights. "Keeping the Curtains
Closed" would make a decent quickie encore.
On the other hand, if I never again hear the song "Walk With The Devil,"
it
will be too soon. "Bakersfield" is another. "Turtle Bait" is awful, as is
"The Onion Field." Another writer mentioned those last two as well, which
made me laugh because I've always hated those same songs.
