I still remember the first time I heard the orig studio version of this song -- driving around one night with a friend of mine listening to the punky/new wavey station in NY at the time (WPIX-FM), and the line "this ain't no Mudd Club, or CBGBs" just about had us falling out of the car laughing.

uh-oh, Percy's drippin' honey all over the damn place. Caledonia better grab a brick.

proxy WOS of Gaz (but an uber-'80s flashback nonetheless): "Smuggler's Blues".   Ah, what Miami Vice wrought back then.

I think that the whole set was pretty much MOR, not bad, just MOR.
