That's actually a pretty fun set.  I still love the Billy Squier song although even I cringe at the prancy video.

even though we all know Rod Stewart "officially" lost it after moving to LA, I still enjoy his later cheesey hits, like Some Guys Have All The Luck, Young Turks, Forever Young, Tonight I'm Yours, etc.  I esp like his People Get ready w Jeff Beck.

Totally the way I remember '73; the Marley track's the only one of the 10 that wasn't a Top 40 hit.
