"here’s to leaning into your dreams and goals. If anything tries to block you, elbow it out of the way." This tickled my funny bone!!

Sorry. In the Epstein Files era I don’t want to see this face pop up in my feed.

Very impressive, Michael! Both this one, and the creative idea for a periodic "Uncovered" series! Looking forward to the next!

It's got a couple of interesting cover choices (I used to have the album!).....Rick Springfield's "How Do You Talk to Girls" and The Grass Roots' "Midnight Confessions"! Good luck in your search!

I vaguely recall Chachi did the Rick Springfield song on here...I think I had tried to block it from memory, though!

That's right....that would make sense, given that time frame and a TV/record crossover publicity moment! With that in mind (and given that, at any given time, I'm in the process of playing anywhere from 1-4 Tune Tags! BTW, you're about due...we last played in August! DM me a first song, if you're game!), on a Tag just played (that won't air til around March or April), I picked a Lisa Hartman song....you may recall I dated her briefly in junior high (she's a Houston homegirl), and in the process of searching for her performing one she recorded, I discovered she performed several of her songs as her character, Ciji, on "Knots Landing" in the early-'80s!

You may not want to see this, but here's Rick (at about the 1:50 mark) dressed all in red, looking for all the world like an open wound, guest-starring, with Lynda Carter, on a "Wonder Woman" episode. Wonder Woman is, all of a sudden, a recording artist (because of course she is!!!), and Rick's character (this is early '78) is visiting her in the studio! Here's my paywalled article about Lynda where I've got this clip within, for those who might want to imbibe!

If only Bill Withers had got the memo for Still Bill, the album with Lean on Me...

If only! At least the 45 sleeve, right?
