Mighty fine musicologist/detective work there, Pip. :thumbsup: I'd take my hat off to you if I was wearing one.

"Thank You, Jack White" by the Flaming Lips. It's been on my mind for a couple days. Catchy little thing.

After suffering some heart issues in 2004, Randy cut back on his touring schedule with WCR and Meisner Swan & Rich. His last public performances were in 2008.

Yes, Delilah, members and associates...

No, that duet is from 1995.

Actually, come to think of it, the Meisner, Swan & Rich album wasn't released until circa 2001 but reportedly was recorded much earlier, perhaps as early as 1994. The...

It's good, isn't it! In case we ever wondered, "What would Go Your Own Way be like if Stevie sang it?" :)

I'm listening to Lissie's most recent album now, "My Wild West." Most of the songs are...

This is new to me - "Hero" by Lissie. Heard it at the grocery store yesterday and it knocked me sideways. I thought it was Stevie Nicks at first.

I wasn't a fan back in the day, but Mr. Hodgson in particular I've grown to appreciate. I saw him in concert a couple years ago, and he was great.

He performs with a full band here, but even when...

It was very early days in video land, we gotta cut him some slack. :) The weirdest early 80s video I remember was Roger Hodgson (ex-Supertramp) buck naked and covered in body paint for "Had a Dream."...

Thank you for telling us about it, I didn't know. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7TfLddGxkg

And me: I'm in a romantic mood and appreciating the wistful sounds of "I Really Want to Know You" by...

Crikey. I never knew either of those people had a solo album.

I'm indulging in a bit of sunshine pop from around 1967-68, "Always You" by the Sundowners....

Selections from the Tommy film soundtrack, 1975. My brothers had this album when it came out, but I seemed to listen to it a lot more than them!

I was reminded of it recently in an airport...

You have to be very old like me to even remember this song, "I Want You To Be Mine" by an obscure Dutch group called Kayak:

"Love Rules" by one Don Henley, from the Fast Times at Ridgemont High soundtrack. I really like his singing on this one. And he was well in touch with his teenage angst.

I love that song - also, "The Raven" and "Dr. Tar & Professor Feather." Their rocking tunes were absolutely the best.

Toby was in a tv version of The Old Curiosity Shop, that's where I'd seen him + one of the Harry Potter films and The Painted Veil.

I'm familiar with the French and Saunders tv show, but didn't...

I recognize the actors (except for the tall bloke), though their names are not forthcoming. I want to say "Toby" for the blonde one.

W's post about "Doo Wah Diddy" put me in mind of the original...

The Blockheads have gone on without Ian Dury?

I'm on a Beach Boys binge this a.m., now afternoon.

Listening to Mazzy Star's 1990 gem "She Hangs Brightly" and reliving my youth. How quickly the time goes by...:sigh:

Do you favor "La La" over "Hey Love," Luv? You're not alone. La La went to #4 while Hey only got to 52. However, the latter song intrigues me, I think it's so lovely and otherworldly.

I'm now on...

I'll see your Stylistics and raise you three Delfonics, "Hey Love" - this is serious swoon music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBSERoY2HS8

"You and Me" by Tammy Wynette. Muy romantico.

ABBA "I've Been Waiting for You" - muy romantico

Do you really think it would work with a man singing it? Not sure here. What makes the song so effectively sad is that the woman who's singing (the character, if you will) wants true love but men...

I haven't heard the live version, I shall go listen now.

It's all about caring and sharing. :)

P.S. for those who may be new to Karla, I believe her most famous song (and it's a great one) is...

Karla Bonoff "Please Be the One"

I'll never understand why this lady wasn't more popular: she's a brilliant songwriter with a gorgeous voice and very good-looking to boot. She had the connections...
