Lyres, "Help You Ann" -- BOS2FRA

BOS3 Brooooooce "Darlington Country"  FP must be creaming his jeans.

Always thought this was an outtake from The River sessions.

certainly sounds like it coulda been, but per Wiki:

"The version of the song that was released on the album was recorded in April or May 1982 at the Power Station in one of the early Born in the U.S.A recording sessions."

Lou Reed "I Love You Suzanne"



His red joystick

I've asked her to play that one, to no avail.

Not bad. I'd only count #9 as an LN (I've always enjoyed "Sunset Grill", and I don't really ever hear "Tenderness" anymore). "The Belle Of St. Mark" would definitely count as something I wouldn't have expected. B+ overall.

Dave gave it a couple of spins back in the day but it has been years since it turned up on a KFOG 10@10.
