Well, we'd've preferred Election Day, but '70s two days in a row is nothing to sneeze at.

Looking ahead, KFOG has begun flogging the latest LFTA disc. It drops a week from Saturday, so we can likely expect an LFTA set, some time next week, I'd wager.

indeed -- Thursday's "New Music" thingy is all about the LFTA.

Is "You may be Right" from '79? or '80?

Hmmm--good point. You May Be Right.

But Allmusic is slow, so it's taking me awhile to get the answer.

ETA: Yep, it was released March 1980. And YMBR hit #7 in that year as well. But I'm not gonna be the one to tell DM he flubbed this one.

Nope, AMG says it's Phil Kenzie. Similar tone to Tom Scott, but a little honkier.

And this could potentially be another wrong year--Time Passages was released in 78, it says, and this didn't chart so potentially the chart action rule doesn't apply. Dave must remember it from 79, that's it.

ELO's lyrics at their most nonsensical: "You're looking good just like a snake in the grass"?

Never did figure out who "Brrrrruce" (as opposed to "Brooooce") is, or why he's bringing J.Lynne down.

Ooops, I must have clicked wrong or else there was a momentary glitch on AMG.  He has an extensive credit history, starting with Manfred Mann in '69 and notably featuring the original cast recording of Rocky Horror!
