And it's Irish Greg's b-day! 37--just a babe!

They feted him on the Morning show -- amazing that he was, like, 22 when he started working as an interm-cum-producer for Alex Bennett on Live 105.

Well, 10cc isn't exactly interesting, but I'll cross my fingers and hope for a breakout or 2.

Yvonne Elliman. You'll have to ask the Princess for the backstory on that one--I suspect it came via her pal Marcy Levy, but I don't know anything beyond that.

Hmmm, never noticed there were two different women on that song.  I'll have to listen for that next time.  So is Marcy Amelia's pal, or Yvonne's?

Yeah, it does not speak well of a set that an Eric Clapton song (admittedly, one of his better of the era) is the high point.

Now THIS is more like it. BOS, Graham Parker and the Rumour, Hold Back the Night.

Praise da LAWD! Graham Parker's fab cover of "Hold Back the Night" BOS, it'll be tough to beat this one today.

From The Pink Parker, his pink vinyl EP.
