Happy day!

Happy Happy, joy joy, Alicat!!!

Hope you get all the disco you could want out of this '79 set.

And, pre-emptive WOS to Rod Stewart.  Just a premonition.

It was a big hit in spring of '79.  I have vivid memory of it then.

guess it's one o' those cuspy ones. But as mshray notes, Communique came out less than a year after their debut.

Ha!  Actually, it peaked in late '78 so that actually increases the possibility she'll play it! ;)

I always stick around for the '79 bonus, since Annalisa loves to play "I Do the Rock".

I don't want to start a ruckus, but if Dave justifies his selections based on charting, okay fine, play "Sultans", but how can he play the Clash tune in 1979, when the album was released on Dec 14, 1979, and very, very few people even heard this once in 1979?  It certainly wasn't an advance single.

This was one of those things that broke late in 78 (I gave it album of the year honors at a dinner at the local pizza parlor) but was initially kind of a cult thing, before it exploded.  Just like Chambers Bros is clearly 1967 to me, but 68 in the rest of the country.  KSAN played it (SoS) very early.
