Choyna, choy-oy-na. Red Rockers showing off an odd accent.

and we're in a big fire in fields of country. Or something.

Fields Of Fire - Big Country.  This faux bagpipe guitar riff gives me a headache.

UBER BOS2 - Frida -There's Something Going On
(the best thing Phil Collins ever did was the drumming and production in this song)
GREAT request, RG!   :)

OMFG!!! Frida!  uber-BOS2 for a bustout -- amazing that super-ABBAfan dave never played this one despite many suggestions.

No mistaking those Collins drums.

Phunky Phil's work here *almost* makes up for the dreck that followed in the rest of his career.

Love this song - but methinks it's more like a Blue Katrina...

Would've loved it if AL played Your Silent Face off of NO's fabulous Power, Lies and Corruption instead.

BOS3 New Order, proving how much "New wave dance music" was just disco for geeky white folks (and I say that quite affectionately).

New Order's record covers were just as amazing as their music.
