At least it's short--and we should be glad to hear any Springsteen tune. But yeah, we hear that a lot, probably the most of any song in his catalog.

WOS, Follow You Follow Me. Genesis descends into the belly of the beast.
Let's get right to it.

Remember that 'Fogheads at Fifteen' set we had a couple years ago?  Well I was 15 in '78 and had a couple of older friends who significantly expanded my musical horizons that year.  So far Dave is treading that turf for me, even including Genesis, of which my friend Brent was a big fan.  All we need now is some angry young men.

I still say this one's rather lovely -- certainly far better than what they descended into 4 or 5 years later. VHM.

I'm guessing Andy Gibb's not quite angry enuf ;)

Was just wondering if we'd hear anything from SNF in this set. Well, this doesn't exactly qualify, but it's a pretty short line from Saturday Night Fever to Shadow Dancin'. The Brothers Gibb could do no wrong in '78--'til Sgt. Peppers came out anyway.

Shadow Dancing and death from a broken heart (literally) thanks to Victoria Principal (or so goes the story).

Here to cast my BOS vote live, with a VHM to the Broooce.

Andy was such a bullshitter.
