Hadn't really listened to earlier REO S faaip, but have just listened to this and a great track.

Some really close calls there, especially in the 70's, as like the REO S track and XRS :moggy:

Is there a mistype in the 80's though 64 ?...……..as there are two songs on their own RC and BJ ??
……….if so I'd go for BJ over RC, so will change.

Well you surprised me there as I thought the Ray Davies song would be right up your street being a rock man & not a lover of soul music.

I do like a bit of most things (except Jazz, which I think I've said before) and don't mind a bit of Luther Vandross, even though that track might be considered a bit of a soppy/girly song :)

Another vote for the 80s, even like the cheesy charts stuff, very much down to an age thing I think.
