    Another one to thank you for! Never seen/heard it before...made me smile.

    JC was the man. I'm really impressed with some of the songs he chose to cover (and cover so damn well).

    And Burl...part of my childhood.

    Odd name though, when you say it out loud a few times :mrgreen:

    Oh YES YES (classic) I remember that one....*Light Em Up* and in accordance of their resurgence here's another VH...

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2R2KXNQR1M

    At night I walk this stinkin' street past the crazies on my block
    And I see the same old faces and I hear that same old talk
    And I'm searching for the latest thing, a break in this routine
    I'm talkin' some new kicks, ones like you ain't never seen
    This is home, this is Mean Street
    (This is) Yes-ah home, the only one I know

    An' we don't worry 'bout tomorrow 'cause we're sick of these four walls
    Now what you think is nothin' might be somethin' after all
    Now you know this ain't no through street, the end is dead ahead
    The poor folks play for keeps down here, they're the living dead

    Come on down, (Huh! Ow!) down (This is) to Mean Street
    They're dancin' now, look! Out on Mean Street
    Dance baby!

    (Guitar Solo)

    It's always here and now my friend, it ain't once upon a time
    It's all over but the shouting, I come to take what's mine
    We're searchin' for the latest thing, a break in this routine
    Talkin' some new kicks, ones like you ain't never seen

    This is home, (Ooh) this is Mean Street
    (This is) Yes-ah home, only one I know

    (This is home) See, a gun is real easy
    (This is Mean Street) in this desperate part of town
    (This is home) Turns you from hunted into hunter (Yeah)
    (This is Mean Street) You go an' hunt somebody down
    Wait a minute, ah (This is home) Somebody said "Fair warning", Lord
    (This is Mean Street) Lord, strike that poor boy down!

    Love em! Though I'm so not a fan of the Hagar era :mrgreen:

    I saw them in '78...'79? In his heyday, DLR was THE man!

    I'm hit by a wave of nostalgia this evening. Very sweet, really - or bittersweet, I guess.

    Earlier we were watching a show on muscle cars...some beautifully badass pieces of work from the 60s and 70s.

    Chevelle and GTO...man oh man.

    Anyway, still in that state of mind, cruising through some digital music stations on tv, got to the 70s channel.

    John Denver, Calypso! So NOT badass, but reminiscent of that era.

    Then they went into the Hues Corporation - Rock the Boat...extreme 70s :mrgreen:

    Not like I want to go back to those times, but the memories are dear to me. That's life, isn't it? Living it, and then remembering it.

    Rinse and repeat.

    It made me think of visiting family in NY during my childhood summers. Alexander's in Queens, Italian ices from the street carts, THAT FUCKING HUMIDITY THAT NEVER ENDED and the cockroaches that came out at night and scared the shit out of me when I'd get up to pee in the early morning hours.

    I think only a woman could come close to replicating Plant's voice :D

    A song I thought about as I went surfing this morning here in Palm Beach for my birthday yesterday...

    My friend Michael Franti...Crazy, Crazy, Crazy
