This song really takes me back to 1974.  I remember seeing the Hues Corporation play it "live" on Wonderama.  Anybody see that or even remember that show?  It was on channel 11 in Los Angeles.  Damn, the things you remember.  It was hosted by someone sort of famous...was it Wink Martindale?  Doesn't sound right...


In NYC we had "Wonderama"; it was hosted by either Sonny Fox or Sandy Becker (but that ws in the early '60s.

Apparently, it was Bob McAllister when I watched it.  No reason to remember him, I suppose.

Hey Mike, what was that Bobby Wo song we heard Monday afternoon that consisted of him just vamping over a freaky instrumental?  (Yes, I know that describes a lot of his songs, but this one took it to its logical extreme.)


I don't recall the title.

Hey, if yer stickin' around -- join me at vipradio.net, they are FAB.


I'd love to.  But when I click on the "listen" link/button, it routes me to a page that says, "Sorry, deep linking is not allowed."  Doing this both in Firefox and IE.  Am I doing something wrong?

Dave: stop cruisin' Jose and hook up with him already!!!


LOL!!!  But I thought he was back with Alejandro?

Meantime, should I change the subject header to give away the year?


Alejandro is still around, but Dave's mentioned Jose several times in the past week, so we've been ragging on him 'bout it.  By all means change the header.

If ya don't mind, please do, just to make it easier to find later on. Or I can use my Moderator superpowers to do it later.

"deep linking" -- sounds like an unsafe sex practice.

BTW the "just played" feature on the player doesn't always work.

So what did Dave say in the backsell? I wasn't paying too close attention, obviously. (Damn work...)

I hate it when Dave's web intern makes typos.

Posting here for no better reason than to bring this thread back to the top of the forum and preserve chrono order. OCD at its finest, that's me.
