It never was a hit

BOS Clash, "Safe European Home". Another very impressive late-'70s outing from Rob. He's as in-his-element in these years as Dave is in the late '60s/early '70s.

Jackson Browne - Nothing But Time
Blondie - One Way Or Another
Bob Marley - Punky Reggae Party
Ramones - I Wanna Be Sedated
Tom Petty - Listen To Her Heart
Flash And The Pan - Hey, St. Peter
Grateful Dead - I Need A Miracle
Nick Lowe - They Called it Rock
Meat Loaf - Paradise By The Dashboard Lights
Clash - Safe European Home

I know the Blondie, Ramones, Flash/Pan, and Meat Loaf.  If I've ever heard the GDead song I don't recognize the title, and the other titles are wholly unfamiliar to me.  (Late-'70s rock is neither a strong point nor a point of great interest for me.)

I guarantee you've heard the Petty, whether you realize it or not ("you say you're gonna take her away/with your money and your co-caine"). And probably the Clash too.   I will say I haven't heard the Browne since I bought the LP in '78.

The Jackson Browne tune, from Running on Empty, bears the distinction of being the only song, to my knowledge, ever recorded on a moving tour bus.
