Not the best start, though: "Turn the Page" is a little overwrought for my liking (which, given my tastes, is saying a lot).  Hoping we'll get something from the Jefferson Starship's Spitfire album ("With Your Love" and "St. Charles" were the singles).  Macca's "Silly Love Songs" would be nice for a summer day, too.

Stealing Mike's joke: It's Neil Tennant!  I mean, Al Stewart ...

Indeed, I always wondered if the Spanish guitars on "Domino Dancing" were a nod to "On the Border".  The PSBs need to do a dance cover of an Al Stewart song -- I nominate "Year of the Cat".

I think Neil was dating a Spanish guy at the time, which informed his writing -- "Domino Dancing" was followed by "Se A Vida E," or somesuch title, ending the band's presence on the U.S. pop charts.

VHMs to Queen and Sweet Lou (someone got my message!).

another VHM to Boston, just for not being "More Than a Feeling" or "Foreplay/Long Time".
