were you old enough to see them 'back then' DB?

I remember them well.

Indeed I am and indeed I did, Dusty...At the Greek Theater in Los Angeles, 1984.
Perhaps one of the most musical concerts I have been privileged to witness, and darn nice fellas, too.

Aha! I remember them even farther back DB ;)

Truthfully, so do I, Dusty...The varied incarnations of this band occupy much space in the media collection, and this specific edition of the group was one of the few 'instant purchases' of 1980 for me, based solely on their ABC Fridays appearance.

Sadly, all my wax did not survive an automobile move from Cali to Boston DB :(

Ah, but your heart was true, Dusty...I sold most of mine (5000+ records) for filthy lucre, then bought it all back in digital format a decade later.

I believe the pejorative word for that is 'sucker'.

Yes sir DB, I hauled those tunes from coast to coast several times..but the last move in the middle of a hot summer did them all in.

I cried all day, as I drove, about those tunes when I opened the trunk and found them curled like a bad haircut.
