Oh, I love love love early Roxy Music. I always think my tastes are far too mainstream for you, Lauren, but that’s a wonderful track. I’ve got “Love is the Drug” on right now…

I can’t believe someone else has heard Common Man by the Blasters. I took a lot of harassment in high school for loving that song. I still have the tape someplace!
