Skippy Handleman leading the orchestra--a dead giveaway.

No birthday club today? Or did I space?

At least this means we won't get 1984 tomorrow.  Maybe a theme set? Haven't had one since pride, have we?

Think it was a different Kenny Loggins song--Celebrate Me Home maybe?

Speaking of Footloose, here's my contribution to this week's Voice:

http://www.villagevoice.com/nycguide/ev74341,1.html

Loggins & Messina
PNC Bank Arts Center
Exit 116 Garden State Pkwy, Holmdel, NJ
Exit 116
Holmdel, NJ 07733
Phone: (732) 335-0400
      
Arts, Rock/Pop/Etc., By Day, Where to Hear

When schlockmeister Kenny Loggins ended one relationship last year (his marriage), he healed another, reuniting with old collaborator Jim Messina. Still, their mama don’t dance, they’re in the aim of those angry eyes, and we have no idea what “Vahevala” means. But you’ll be spared Loggins’s ’80s soundtrack smashes; this is all ’70s denim-washed soft-rock.
(McCOMBS)

Price Info: $20-$75

VVHM to Broooce, "Trapped."  Gonna be hard to top this.  Was it the B-side of one of the "Born in the USA" singles?

Dave was putting out feelers for a set of "Rock Anthems" during a discussion of same this AM, dunno if that's been decided or not.

LOL!

At least "I'm All Right" has a dancing gopher puppet to go along with it- which is more entertaining than a dancing Bacon. At least to me.
nakes? On my plane?

BOS for me -- it's from "USA for Africa" isn't it? which puts it in the wrong year unless it was a B-side.

No, this was/is only available on the USA For Africa-We Are The World disc.

wrong year, never a B-side:

per AMG: Similarly, Bruce Springsteen's moody, atmospheric cover of Jimmy Cliff's "Trapped" is available only on this collection.
