<< Spirit of '79
Being away in NYC, I am broadcasting a pre-recorded show, where fellow Power Pop and Glam maniacs Courtney and Tony Mengis dropped by the studio, and as always we had a great time. Courtney brought the records and she played an eclectic assortment of tunes, some of which had interesting titles such as "Betsy Party" by the French Band Star Shooter. Does anyone know what a Betsy Party is? Let us know!!
