tie: Human Wheels.....One of those recent songs of his I couldn't help but instantly like.

UNDERRATED SONG: Thundering Hearts.....Almost threw it in the top 15, but it is a song from yester year that you won't hear on the FM dial too often these days.
'OVERRATED SONG: Pink Houses.....No one wants to live in a pink friggin' house, Johnny boy!
DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH: China Girl.....Somewhat of a hit in the mid eighties. Never hear it on today's radio.
ALBUM TO LISTEN TO: I gotta go with "American Fool" from the Cougar days. It's the one that caught my attention to him. I Played that cassette over and over. Much consideration given to 'Scarecrow", "Uh- huh" and "Lonesome Jubilee" too.
