Ian Lloyd, "Slip Away", an early New Wave nugget I haven't heard since '79. He was lead singer of Stories; the song is a Ric Ocasek tune.

BOS3 for novelty alone

followed by BOS4 Neil, "Powderfinger"

any '79 set where Led Zep is the most pedestrian choice (well, that and "My Sharona") is bucking for Hall of Fame consideration. Kudos, Bob!

What luck!  Everybody is leaving me alone to stream the replay.
