Hello Todd & listeners.
I used to work with a fella called Tony Conway. He had a band called Mood Six. One day at work he came in with a version of his song 'Hangin' Around' by Toni Basil. The wonder of hearing a song given full production values was an ear opener. It was the B side over here but not in the USA. Still sounds good.

Most incredible thing about the strength and longevity (going forward too) of Toni Basil’s “Hey Mickey” can be found on YouTube:

Wanna go on a deep dive? Watch some of the hundreds of wonderful homages of “Hey Mickey” by various cheerleaders and little young dance groups sometime.

Absolutely sublime. The energy could power the sun.

I'll need to go back to listen to that whole interview. I was in band practice. Also, it just now occurred to me that BöC were the first modern Rock n Roll dirt bags.
