Do we need to guess who requested this one?

(It is a pretty great song, one we could certainly hear a little more often. BOS for me, too.)
Let's get right to it.

Seriously? I could swear it's another of those "once, five years ago" songs.

But this Mink Deville tune, if it's not a bustout I'd be gobsmacked.

it is indeed. The non-East-Coasters in snipeland were baffled by this one and The Fools. 

Pretenders get a VHM for "Mystery G-Man", one of my fave mondegreens. This would be a BOS in a weaker set but this was most excellent today.

Remember when Letterman was the morning guy on NBC? Me either.

VVHM Mystery Achievement. 1980 Pretenders can't miss, so long as it's something besides Brass LN Pocket.

Yeah, that was weird with Letterman. Did he really do news in 1980?

Enjoying the Pretenders' tune.

I want to say the Fools got some alt-rock play here. Plus I have it on a compilation, so it's not completely unfamiliar to me.

AL must have loaded up her backpack with nuggets from the record cellar. She mentioned last week that she doesn't have the vast KFOG music library to draw from any more -- a lot of it got jettisoned when they relocated from Hawthorne St. So most anything we hear that's a deep cut, it's probably off her own record.

You're kidding...they thinned out their music library? Lame!

Oops, you're right. I rearranged my Robbies. I wonder Mr Dupree is anyone's cousin?
