in 1988 I was working at ABC, and lucky enuf to be listening to British radio via a satellite hook-up. I fell in love with "Perfect" which was a #1 single in the UK; that it did next-to-nothing on the US pop charts was a crime. However -- and this is really weird -- it became a country hit for a band called Baillie & the Boys in 1990.

BOS1 Neil's "Hurricane"; BOS2 Yes' "Wondrous Stories"
BOS3 Mink DeVille, "Cadillac Walk"
uber-LN: Supertramp.
uber-uber-LN: "Black Betty"-- but wait, bonus points for playing the rarely-heard long version..
I was hoping Rob would make good on his promise to play Ronnie Spector's "Say Goodbye to H'wood" in a '77 set -- well, maybe next month. And damn: I missed Nat'l Lampoon's hilarious "MisterRogers" parody with Chris Guest and Bill Murray. "Would'ya like to go to the magic kingdom?"
