A fine TOTHC, Boz's "Lido Shuffle."
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

TANC: Al Stewart's "Year of the Cat" makes an appearance.

"like Peter Lorre contemplating a crime..."

As I said yesterday, something from Stevie besides the 2 #1 hits from Songs in the Key would be a gas.

BOS Zevon, 2 days in a row we've heard songs from that album that Ms Ronstadt later covered.

Yay for rock ocarina: Bowie's "Golden Years," later recorded to fine effect by Ms. Amelia Ray.

I hadn't heard his versions of this or "Hasten Down..." in ages, I'll have to pull that album out this weekend.

Damn, I missed "RoadRunner" and "Down to Zero".

And that Dwight Twilley was new to me.
