When given a choice (and despite my recent dissing of '80s Tubes), I much prefer the Tubes' "Prime Time" to APP's.

I've always thought "Prime Time" sounded must like the Moody Blues.  They and the APP had really come together stylistically at this point.

Totally agree, which I hold against the Moodies, as I think Parsons got there first and did it better.

speaking of different songs by the same artists...I'd much rather hear "One In A Million" than "Talking In Your Sleep".

This did hit #1, and it was their 1st...but not the last.
