Heck with the "Kill This Thread" protocol. You all have been posting too much since I was last here and I have to chime in to posts 3 pages ago! wink

Rocky and I are radio twins. In addition to news and classical music, our public radio stations play jazz on Friday and Saturday nights, which I also like.

I registered with Spotify over a year ago but haven't used it since. A lot of my 20-something friends use it all the time.

I had quite a CD collection before I got on iTunes. When I started putting the CDs on my computer, I only copied the songs I liked...the ones that I cared about hearing again. I would guess that only about 10 percent of my CDs were copied complete.

I'd never seen that one before! What fun. Thanks, EDE.

Buggles frontman Trevor Horn went on to work mostly behind-the-scenes as a super-producer of the 80s and 90s.

The Buggles were also briefly absorbed into Yes in 1980, producing the Drama album, an album which has generally grown in reputation over the years.

Here's one of my favorite tracks.

Loved that song. First time I ever heard it. Thank you so much.

Horn also returned to Yes, solely in a producer's capacity, to produce their monster hit album 90125. This is my favorite song from it:

Man, I forgot how good "Our Song" actually is.

Just to bring it full circle, here's the title track from Horn's most recent collaboration with Yes, 2011's Fly From Here, which is actually based on an old Buggles demo! Horn serves as producer and fellow Buggle Geoff Downes is back as keyboardist.

Love Bananarama! I share a birthday with Keren Woodward.

What was the name of the band that did the original Venus, Shocking Blue?

Well, they've been pretty hit or miss since the 80s. Fly From Here was a strong comeback album, but this year's Heaven and Earth is pretty mediocre. I think they seriously need someone like Horn to keep them on track.

I loved the beach party movies that Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello made together in the '60s. My favorite was Muscle Beach Party. I think the scene where the bodybuilders flex for the countess was one of the first clues Li'l Rocky had that he was going to be gay. grin
