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

Where Were You December 9, 1978?-- Part 2

Continuing with the songs on the radio from back then.

MAGNET AND STEEL--  WALTER EGAN--  With help from Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks on backing vocals.  He's got such a great Southern Californian vibe down to that sort of Surf Guitar  break in there.  (I always thought the background singers sounded familiar.)
MY LIFE--  BILLY JOEL-- 

RIGHT DOWN THE LINE--  GERRY RAFFERTY--  (One of my favorites.  Formerly with Stealer's Wheel.)
REMINISCING--  LITTLE RIVER BAND--  One of a handful of big bands to come out of Australia.

STRAIGHT ON--  HEART--  From Dog and Butterfly (And included in all of their many, many, many greatest hits compilations.)
KISS YOU ALL OVER-- EXILE--  (A Dirty Country song cracking the charts.)

WHO ARE YOU--  WHO--  Title track.  First Christmas without drummer Keith Moon.)
WHENEVER I CALL YOU FRIEND--  KENNY LOGGINS AND STEVIE NICKS--  From his new solo album Night Watch.  (Stevie's spreading her wings from the Mac.)

HOT CHILD IN THE CITY--  NICK GILDER--  #1 in Chicago.  A one-hit wonder.

Bonus Track

JUST ONE LOOK--  LINDA RONSTADT--  from that Living in the USA album.

Wonder What That Hot Child Was Doing in the City?  --RoadDog


WHAT SHE SAYS AND WHAT SHE MEANS:  I need new shoes. = The other 40 pairs are simply the wrong shoes.
