Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

There. I said it.
Amanda:
(Sybil -- that cover does exist, though!)
Sybil:
But it wouldn't work here. Context is everything. Here, "Donde esta santa claus" chokes me up.
But I still must hear this cover. I've found a youtube link. For later.
Latkes with salmon roe, anyone?
dave:
with sparklers, no less.
... as can a live version of the original, complete with dubious hair, teeth, banjos, and sunglasses.
