Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Where Were You December 27, 1979? --Part 2

DON'T DO ME LIKE THAT-- TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS-- first single release from "Damn the Torpedoes." (Pride of Gainesville, Florida, but an acquired taste as he can't really sing, but somehow it all works out.)
JANE-- JEFFERSON STARSHIP-- And, when Jane Byrne was mayor of Chicago.

BAD CASE OF LOVING YOU-- ROBERT PALMER-- (I wonder if a doctor can treat it?)
DREAM POLICE-- CHEAP TRICK-- Top Ten (Rockford, Illinois' pride and joy. Two rock stars, two nerds.)

ALL I EVER WANTED-- SANTANA-- a hundred miles an hour from 30 years ago. From new release "Marathon." (Always wonder the name of the song.)
HEAD GAMES-- FOREIGNER-- off new album and title track. (I always confuse these guys with Bad Company for some reason.)

TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME-- SUPERTRAMP-- (A whole new sound on the radio. Liked it.)
GOOD GIRLS DON'T-- KNACK-- Follow up to "My Sharona" from debut album. (Liked this one just as well, especially since I was really getting tired of "My Sharona" which was being played ALL OF THE TIME!!)

TUSK-- FLEETWOOD MAC-- back with a double vinyl release following up "Rumours." far more experimental, far more quirky than "Rumours." Purposefully so.
POP MUZIK-- M-- A pop and rock wonder. A one-hit wonder that goes to #1. There are not many in the history of rock and roll. The label listed the artist as "M," but actually an Englishman by the name of Robin Scott.

BABE- STYX-- The number one song in Chicago from their new album "Cornerstone."

Good Music Back Then. --RoadDog
