Title: 5 Feb 2016: it's... A Mystery Year (1978)
Post by: RGMike on February 04, 2016, 09:05:18 PM
Per the promo this evening. We've had 2 '80s, a '70s and a '90s so I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it's our first 2006 set.

EWF remembers September -- RIP Maurice.

So it's either '78 or '79, as this one straddles both years.  Bow-day-OW!

LRB reminisce -- yeah, '78 it is.

Hoping that we get a little punk/new wave represented here. LRB gives us a dose of late 70s cheeze.

And here it is: Blondie, Sunday Girl.

A couple of VHMs so far (EWF, Blondie) but this gets my BOS out of what we've heard up to now.

And hard on its heels comes BOS2: It's a Laugh. One of H&O's better and lesser played tunes.

Did Maurice White play any part in this (composer? producer?)? This has his sound all over it.

ETA: Per Wikipedia, he and EWF aren't mentioned, but I stand by my statement that the EWF sound was the blueprint for this one.
