HaF/Della I'm going to have to Google "Gain"now as you have mentioned it a few times. I hope it's good ...
Wasn't Mark Knophler from somewhere around London too?

Then Frampton comes out in a shiny jumpsuit and an acoustic guitar and starts with some girly tunes in front of 100,000 rocked out and tuned up concert goers. It was a buzz kill. I understand we missed a great show later, but that's what young stupid drunks do. Keep in mind we was still in the disco sux era and that outfit didn't help either.
Was this before or after Frampton comes alive brain? From what I know, he wasn't really that big before this album.

I keep thinking 1964 wasn't all that long ago but I guess it is a half century. Dang it. I'm exhausted and it's 9:45 and son still not in bed.
So I get to call shotgun? What is calling shotgun then?

So my song for the day. He was not big in the states at all, but here in SA and OZ this guy is a legend. Brilliant singer and songwriter.

Za shotgun is being the person to post first after Ken starts the thread like in a car you get the virtual passenger seat. Don't make me regret telling you
