Into the great unknown with a couple of these...
1. Rainy Day People - Gordon Lightfoot ?
Not registering - I'm sure it should do - it'll have to be a quick visit to the 'back room'...
2. One Of Us - ABBA 4
Highly personal piece of work, one of the better efforts from this 'late' period...
3. Don't Fall In Love With A Dreamer - Kenny Rogers & Kim Carnes 3
Or, a couple of ex-New Christy Minstrels reunited! Well performed, but not a killer track...
4. Wooly Bully - Sam The Sham & The Pharaohs 5
No-nonsense garage-ish stormer...much played at countless parties, and still sounding as essential as ever...
5. Touch Of Grey - The Grateful Dead 3
Garcia and Co. in 'hit record' shock! Didn't appeal in a big way to me, but not terrible...
6. Jealousy - Natalie Merchant ?
Possibly out of my time-frame...
7. Cradle Of Love - Billy Idol ?
...as was this - vaguely remember it, but not that well...
8. I'm Sorry - John Denver 3
Inoffensive (as always), but he's done better...
9. Montego Bay - Bobby Bloom 4
Uber-catchy 'calypso' fluff...marks deducted for a dodgy ending...
10. Girls - Dwight Twilley ?
11. The Air That I Breathe - The Hollies 4
Does provoke some extreme reactions in some, who think it's sickly...they should hear Albert Hammond's original! Good performance...
12. For What It's Worth - Buffalo Springfield 5
Classy...about as good as they got...
13. Pressure - Billy Joel 3
Cluttered and overdone...could've been much better with a different approach, not terrible tho'...
14. The Wanderer - Dion 5
Okay, it's commercial as they come...but Dion just has something that makes it special...magnificent...
15. Love Stinks - J. Geils Band ?

Paul, didn't you ever watch The Wedding Singer (with Adam Sandler)? This song was featured in the movie. Pretty funny if you listen to the words! ;D

Certainly did...on a rather battered and bruised Greatest Hits (which I really must replace) - not my most overplayed track of Gordie's (hence the initial head-scatching), but very nice...4

Sadly, I'm not much of a film buff so I wouldn't have known it from that, however I have managed to nab a copy (pretty rough one, it must be said!) and for a first hearing it plods along nicely...yep, some of them words are amusing (or close to home, take your pick!)...4
Ta muchly for the info'...
