VHM them Heart grrrls, "Barracuda".  It always sounds like she's saying "Baron Barracuda", a reference to '60s kid show Diver Dan.

I can't honestly BOS or even VHM it (it's actually a pretty awful song), but kudos for playing a Foreigner track you NEVER hear: "Starrider".

and -- dayum! -- it's followed by another rarity, Tull's "The Whistler"!  BOS2.

Dayum indeed, this being Thursday I didn't make an effort to get online in time for the end.  For obvious reasons I was thinking about this tune last Friday.  I once had the 45 of this.
