Bob's overdue for a spin of Sniff'n'the Tears.  But we start by getting the Cars outta da way early.

Holy shit, a co-worker just made a "Warriors" reference last night!

Mother, I don't think I like this song.  WOS Floyd.

It's a weird movie, it has its cult following, but the "gangs" are as ridiculously stylized as the Sharks and the Jets.

Even the losers finally get to release a breakthru LP. I still have one of these buttons at home somewhere:

OK, I'm off to work, you know.  If things are slow I'll listen to 10@1 and post a BIBT entry.  Getting harder to fit those in!

great set o stuff here. 
my BOS's go to

  • Cars -  Ben Orr had a voice.  I love them (most of the time), so there!
  • Joe Walsh - This song should have been on his solo LP But Seriously Folks... , but the Eagles needed it to make their week-ass Long Run record less crappy.
  • Cheap Trick - if you don't have their first three records, you should.  Still great in concert, btw, even though they're on the county fair circuit, more or less
  • Foreigner - Sentimental favorite, b/c the lyrics mention Rochester, NY's "Lake Avenue" (Lou Gramm and I are from there.  :) )

HM to John Gougar I Need A Lover - became a hit for him in Australia first, correct?  epic!
