Kenny Loggins - Nightwatch (1978)

MEMORY

There was a point in time that everything that Stevie Nicks touched turned to gold. This was in that window. Although there are some good songs on here, and some with Michael McDonald from the Doobie Brothers, ...But it is over shadowed by the big hit and featured song from this release, which I had no idea Melissa Manchester wrote the lyrics to.

Pat Benatar - Precious Time (1981)

MEMORY

What an awesome release. One of my favorites from Pat Benatar. Fire and Ice, Promises In The Dark, Helter Skelter, and my favorite, the title track. I remember the video for that song, with Neil Geraldo wearing a sheik turban delivering an amazing piece of guitar work. Life is too short, so why waste.....

Head East - Head East (1978)

MEMORY

Once in a while you can't wait for the radio to play a specific song, and this was one of those songs. I only remember the hit off of this... But listening to the album...Wow, this really good. I forgot how polished these guys were. Instantly added this album into rotation.

Saxon - Wheels of Steel (1980)

DISCOVERED

I never really appreciated Saxon until now. Giving this a listen, there must have been a lot of other music out there. It's really good, and full of anthemisque( is that a word) songs.

Nigel Olsson - Nigel Olsson (1978)

DISCOVERED

I do remember his slow hit, Dancing Shoes and didn't think too much when I can this a listen. It's pretty good. It's soft rock but by no means a slow ballad. And what is this a cover..of a BIlly Joel song.

Delta 5 - Mind Your Own Business (1979)

DISCOVERED

This is only a single and that unfortunate. It very raw and that's what makes it great. Very typical of the late 70s Punk. This Female Fronted band from the UK is reminiscent of the B-52s.
