Well, we'd've preferred Election Day, but '70s two days in a row is nothing to sneeze at.

Looking ahead, KFOG has begun flogging the latest LFTA disc. It drops a week from Saturday, so we can likely expect an LFTA set, some time next week, I'd wager.
Let's get right to it.

indeed -- Thursday's "New Music" thingy is all about the LFTA.

Is "You may be Right" from '79? or '80?

Hmmm--good point. You May Be Right.

But Allmusic is slow, so it's taking me awhile to get the answer.

ETA: Yep, it was released March 1980. And YMBR hit #7 in that year as well. But I'm not gonna be the one to tell DM he flubbed this one.

Top40db sez '80.  I'm sure Dave regrets the error...

WWWWWWWWOS: "Heartache Tonight," a hint of the vacuous lyricism that Frey would later "perfect" with "The Heat Is On."

I've never heard this song before, obviously Al Stewart on the vox, but is that Tom Scott on sax?  Reminds me of "Jazzman" and "Car on a Hill" a bit.
