BOS to 5-7-0-5.  Did City Boy do anything else of note?

their earlier stuff is quite nice, this was clearly an attempt to placate the record company. A lovely song called "Haymaking Time" from the previous LP was a NY FM turntable hit.

This set is turning out to be long on the album rock of '78--Styx, Joe Walsh, Cheap Trick, and now City Boy. Oh, and Heart too!
Let's get right to it.

Dave should play this way more often, we get it less than annually.
