Inspired by Mongers earlier:

Concerto for a Rainy Day - ELO  (songs 10-13 of Out of the Blue (side 3 of the album))

There is indeed few songs that get a 40-something up more than Mr. Blue Sky

:cool:

Now, since I can't find the album I'll just have to go and buy it.   :hmm:

Be wary.  Apparently some CDs cut out "Standin' In the Rain"

Watching the original Eurythmics videos.

Often early synths that dominated singles can now sound very dated, yet these tracks have aged well.  :)

Listening to my entire Squirrel Nut Zippers collection as I plow through this audit BS I got stuck with.

Cream - I'm so Glad

I'm not sure if I completely understand this song; but I think Cream is glad.  :unsure:
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

very good. A bit more electro pop, perhaps, than their previous output, but overall pretty good.

You can, legally, listen to it for yourself on youtube just to get an idea
