Good day for a meeting, methinks.

Leading with The Call, Let the Day Begin.

Points to DM for a pointed segue:

Reagan's farewell and the swearing in of Shrub the Elder, followed by Chris Rea, Road to Hell.

REM's Stand was #3, followed by a clip about Ollie North's legal troubles, and then Stevie Ray's Riviera Paradise.

Now playing: a song I'm not recognizing that is almost certainly called "She's Got The Look", but AMG is not turning it up under that name.

Ah, followed by a near-certain BOS, both popular and from me: Todd's The Want of a Nail. This was recorded with the band that was largely scavenged from the wreckage of Bourgeois Tagg--Larry Tagg (bass), Lyle Workman (guitar), and Mike Urbano (drums) all played on Nearly Human.

You didn't know the legendary Roxette?  They're a juvenile hammer.  Or something like that.  They're Swedish.
