looks great, i cant wait to sink my teeth into this one! always love the early radio broadcasts as they usually sound good and the artists can cut loose a little bit
ReplyDeleteI have always loved the "John Cougar" record, just listened to the whole thing a few months back, so good to hear some of these songs live. I remember seeing a video for a song on here (not I need a lover, great intro BTW) wear John was onstage wearing a Jawas costume from Star Wars. I thought that rather odd. Thanks for the post!
ReplyDeleteYeah this is cool, at the same time Pat Benatar was on tour and hit the same bars. She mentioned using Johns I Need a Lover song. Image From bottom line 1979 https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT8lK29pgjG1GsMXP0lbyDEdj17Yr-H9WPpYc8i1d-79aJhdeTV
