:lol: 1/2, you've got it (quoting)! Yes, you got the reference. I didn't intend that though. I started to say something about how when I got the time, I'd think about my faves. The first thing I posted was 'one of these days'. The rest just popped into my head and I had to go with it. Thanks again for last night. I had fun.

That being said over the years ive listened to:
HoyHoy - Little Feat
Byrds Greatest hits


Both of which got me to buy numerous other cds/vinyl as well.

Duran Duran Decade?

Man I love that one too!!!
From the looks of you, you really took that "hungry like the wolf" song to heart, brother...

"No no no my friend! Doors fans aren't made, they're born. I think right now in Africa there's some guy madly beating on a drum. He's a Doors fan. Or an old lady sitting on the bus sucking humbugs. She's a Rider On The Storm, but she ain't never heard the sounds."

Best sketch on music ever! Even better than the cowbell one
