This song really takes me back to 1974.  I remember seeing the Hues Corporation play it "live" on Wonderama.  Anybody see that or even remember that show?  It was on channel 11 in Los Angeles.  Damn, the things you remember.  It was hosted by someone sort of famous...was it Wink Martindale?  Doesn't sound right...


In NYC we had "Wonderama"; it was hosted by either Sonny Fox or Sandy Becker (but that ws in the early '60s.

Nice selection so far but no clear BOS for me.

VHM to the Doobies, Another Park Another Sunday. Coulda sworn we were gonna hear You Haven't Done Nothin' after that Watergate clip.
Let's get right to it.

Yes Dave it IS. Enuf with milking the fake suspense for dumb Fogheads.

VHM Billy P, tho' hearing "That's The Way God Planned it" the other day on VIPRadio.com makes this seem more Katrina-ish than it should.

Normally both "Nothing From Nothing" and "A Dream Goes On Forever" would be BOS contenders, but this set is just an embarrassment of riches.  Potential set o' the month and we're only one day in!

Agreed -- docking Todd a notch or 2 for fronting the Cars. :wink:

Mshray didn't miss anthing on the Boulder side, but he's gonna be pissed he didn't hear this one.

Yikes, "Spiders & Snakes". I'd've preferred "My Girl Bill"...

Hey Mike, what was that Bobby Wo song we heard Monday afternoon that consisted of him just vamping over a freaky instrumental?  (Yes, I know that describes a lot of his songs, but this one took it to its logical extreme.)

LOL!!!  But I thought he was back with Alejandro?

Meantime, should I change the subject header to give away the year?
