Fabulous stuff. Englebert's stuff ALWAYS got played on NYC Top 40 radio -- it seemed he always had a hit on the charts in those days. Ditto Glen Campbell. Man, those later Beatle Xmas things were weird.

hadn't heard that one since '79, probably. Would make a great Nyquil commercial, no?

and thanks for the fab 12-string-guitar trifecta! Ditto the BeeGees tune, one of those #1 singles you never hear on the radio.

And I loves me some Babs, but that was the looooooongest version of "Main Event" evah.

wasn't expecting the live version of that one -- nice surprise.  The Motors tune is one of my fave shoulda-beens.  And I forgot the Pointers covered "Dirty Work". Melissa Manchester did too, in '76.

2 more versions of Slow Dancing

I definitely have a soft spot for this, especially the original Funky Kings version.  How do you keep track of all these?

I think I have a few other covers of "Slow Dancing" yet to be unveiled.  They'll pop up in future 10@10 sets. :)
