VHM Big Country and their big bagpipe guitars. But really, this was mostly another New-Wave-barely-touched-us-in-Chicago set.

Finally a BOS: John Cafferty/Beaver Brown doing their best Broooce/E Street band, "On the Dark Side". Actually, it's almost comical how imitative this is. Proxy of cairo, iirc.

Was that from '83? I remember it more from '84.

iirc, the movie Eddie & the Cruisers came out in '83 but it took many months for the sndtk to become a hit.  Indeed, the single peaked in early '84.

Proxy of me in any case.  Sorry I missed it, but not sorry I missed the rest.

Probably just a reference to critics' dismissal of the album - which shouldn't have surprised Bob, or anyone else who heard, say, "Heavy Metal Poisoning."

But when did critics ever say nice things about Styx?
