OMGWTFLOL -- Joey Heatherton's "Gone", her only Top 40 hit (a Timi Yuro cover iirc), and one I haven't heard in decades.  Nice big production -- woulda been a good song for Tom Jones, actually. For you young'uns, Joey was a sexpot and fave of Bob Hope (she did a lot of USO tours in Vietnam) and daughter of song-and-dance man Ray Heatherton

femme jolie, femme jolie! (and I DON'T mean Angelina): Clique's fab Tommy James-produced "Sugar on Sunday".

Followed by Gary Puckett's least-creepy hit: "Over You".

OMFG! a few songs later we get their little-heard orig version of "Superman", made famous by REM. Followed by uber-GazWOS Bubble Puppy, "Hot Smoke & Sassafrass".

holy crap: Brinsley Schwarz, early band of either Dave Edmunds or Nick Lowe or both, with a NTM ballad called "And She Cried". very Left Banke-meets-the Tremoloes.

Holy flaming mother of Pop Argot: listening to London's Heart radio and their Friday "Club Classics" -- and amidst the usual suspects (Labelle, McFadden & Whitehead, Sister Sledge) we get a totally unexpected club mix of Cornershop's wonderful "Brimful of Asha", one of my very fave '90s tracks!  Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow...

...but there's no romance without fi-nance!  The late great Gwen Guthrie knew there wer'n't nuthin' goin' on but da rent.
