Awesome, someone else remembers Wishbone Ash and what a fine record ‘Argus’ is.
Smokey Robinson hosted a summer replacement TV series in the mid-1980s that was one of the best TV shows I’ve ever seen. Lots of his songs of course. Did you ever happen to see that?
I don’t recall it but that’s no guarantee of anything. This one is my fave Smokey and the Miracles song (and off my fave album of theirs – and yes, I do still have this album)
Tears of a Clown – one of my all time favorite Smokey songs.
