Wait- who has a great rack?


Nicolette Sheridan.

Oh wait, wrong thread.  :wink:

I BOS'd the Style Council tune as well--although this Cars song, with all its 10cc-ness, is yet another guilty pleasure. RIP, Ben Orr.
Let's get right to it.

Hard to believe I'm up to BOS #3 already, but have to give another one to Ultravox.

BOS2 "Dancing With Tears in My Eyes", which I get the impression Dave's done a lot of.

And another BOS to the Ultravox tune. Plinky synths, tempered with actual guitars!

VHM Daryl Hall's backing vox on "Only Flame", but I'd like to hear something else from this LP for a change.

What was the answer?

Interestingly, Ginger's question after her 1969 set this morning was "Who was the first act onstage at Woodstock?"

A.) Richie Havens

The last four artists of the set were all Live Aid performers:

Style Council, Ultravox, and Elvis Costello in the UK, the Cars in Philadelphia.  (My Ever Changing Moods and Dancing With Tears in My Eyes were among the songs that they played.)

The first act on stage at Live Aid: Status Quo.
