Welcome home and Happy New Year!
Jet Boy Jet Girl...ah. Sweet. I don't think I've ever seen that juxtaposed on a list with Johnny Cash before.
I love that Peter Gabriel album.
I like when my coffer gets filled
happy new year - and i love that boz scaggs album - makes me think of college
Happy New year 009!
Hadn't thought about "Come and Get It" in years (warning: causes smiles to break out); Boz was big at high school dances . . .
Oorah, here's to cash in pocket!
"Handbags and Gladrags" is, hands down, the best Rod Stewart song evah. Stereophonics did an excellent cover; let me know if you want it.
