Judge musta seen Classic Soul Train this weekend -- here's Taste of Honey doing "We're the Ladies of the '80s". Saturday was the first time I'd ever heard this, and this is the second time.

OMG! My fave forgotten O'Jays ballad: "Your Body's Here With Me (But Your Mind is On The other Side of Town)".  This cries out for a country cover version.

a HUGE star in the UK (and huge presence on the British Charts), Shakin' Stevens, on his way down from #1 with "Oh Julie", covered in the US by Barry Manilow of all people.

switched over to "Sweeney's '60s Classics" on CG, and I'm rewarded with two great obscurities: Jimmy James & the Vagabonds with the orig (non-reggae) hit of "Red Red wine" (circa '68) and -- oh frabjous day! -- Manfred Mann's "My Name is Jack".
