when it comes to 10@10s, "Promises" never end.  But VHM to what I assume is Marcy and Whinyface on backing vox.

BOS3 Nick Gilder.  A Chapman & Chinn trifecta of Gilder, Exile & Blondie would make a smashing finish.

What Blondie did Chapman & Chinn write?  I'd put in a bid for Suzi Quatro, except "Stumblin' In" was '79, right?
