I'm getting dead silence.  By "back door," do you mean something other than clicking the direct-launch link that Geoff supplied on the forum main page?

Placing a bet that I miss "Shake Some Action" -- seems a good celebration song for Chi-town.

Sorry, I posted a "never mind" follow-up that somehow got lost in cyberspace.  It died on me before the top of the hour. Silence all around.

But yes, the "back-dor" is Geoff's direct link (as opposed to the Drive's home page, which is what I usually use).

Wow, I don't think I've heard "Cruisin'" in ANY 10@10.

Definitely not.  Wow.  I have mixed feelings about that song: some interesting vocal dynamics in it and a great bassline, but you can see Grace starting to get sloppy (she laughs over the breaks like she did in her '71-'73 heavy-coke-using years) and their use of outside songwriters, starting here, signaled their transformation into MOR music.
