Something Dave has used as TotHK thrice in the Db.

ETA: it's always a good day when you get to use the word 'thrice'.

Yikes!  If this isn't acompeltely new set, then we have the following choices for tune #2:

Prefab Sprout - "Appetite"
Cockrobin - "When Your Heart Is Weak"
Paul Young - "Every Time You Go Away"

[RGMike]

ooo! BOS to Paul Young covering H&O.  I'm gonna guess we get either "Kayleigh" (hope not) or "Endicott" (hope so).

But of course, we get the one that's already been a classic once. First airing was 12/6/06, repeated on May 21 of last year.

okay, this is from Dec of 2006, and after we get through losing our meat here it's a pretty good set, no other Katrina's & some real rarities, although there is one cringer.

BOS2 DS.

BOS #1, Dire Straits.  Still a great album, hard to believe it will be 25 yrs old next year.

I read once that something like 30% of people who bought their first CD player also bought this disc at the same time.

B.O.S.3. J.C.M. R.O.C.K./U.S.A, O.K.?

[RGMike]

ooo! a good Daltrey rarity (Daltrarity?) BOS4FRA.

Only a VHM from me, but I will BOS Roger Daltrey.

I'd believe that. It had the good timing to have been released not long before CD players started getting a big push from the record companies and electronic manufacturers, it had a number of hits on it, and it was the first fully digital album to be released (DDD), so it sounded really good. It was the first to sell a million copies on CD.
