SG wants her OMD!  I'll settle for Jermaine Jackson.

Gaz will be shocked that someone specifically requested Macca's "Coming Up" -- "NOT the 'live' version". WTF?

Meanwhile AL was on FB flogging the "Fresh Tracks" you can hear on KFOG after dark.  Someone's feeling K-Fox creeping up behind 'em?

Rollergirl AL -- she's takin' chances! Well, not really. But BOS1 DS anyway -- an LP I truly loved that year.

AL mentions Walkmen and Rollerblades in the intro before we get Dire Straits Skateaway.  I like the verses of this song, but not the choruses.

btw, it seems Rollerblades weren't really in production until 83, so you'd be on your old-style four wheel skates for this one.

Good start with Dire Straits.
VHM Gimme the night. This is what I was listening to back in the day.
and totally pre-1980 and 80, rollerskating old-style in Golden Gate Park. That was so much fun.

VHM Mr Benson, "Gimme the Princess"  - Rod Temperton compo that I always assumed MJ discarded.

Woo Hoo! sundaygal gets her "Enola Gay". BOS2. A friend who knew nothing about WWII thought the title was a cryptic message: "enola" spelled backwards is "alone".

BOS for Ashes to Ashes.  I never get tired of this one.  There's an awesome live version of it too.
