If I had started my show with something by a band called Jesus Christ, I would have had to follow it with the only song about the fellow I can stomach, which also includes the only saxophone solo I can stomach…Big Star’s “Jesus Christ”
thought about it – but I’d already broken my strict only two old records per show rule
