slusher Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Right, yep, and correctimundo! As far as "Undercover Angel" goes, Ienjoy a lot of those 1970's "Top 40" songs, and plan on posting a bunch of them myself over the next little while. Nice catch on the Gerry Rafferty song. It wasn't one of his most popular, but I consider it one of his best. I remember him on the radio a lot in the 70's and I don't thinks its been all that long that he past...Lonely boy was a good catch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
