That Pat Boone cover of Paradise City actually had a pretty slick band arrangement. It was enough not like the original to have it's own character and motif.

Unlike Celine's lame attempt to be a "rocker".
That Buggles track was so overplayed it made me sick. The other one Downes? would go on to join Asia right? Wasn't all that about the time Steve Howe left (for Asia and then GTR) and they replaced him with Trevor Rabin? I guess we are pretty much from the same era, I had a bunch of Yes on vinyl too...

Speaking of old MTV, remember a band called Ziggeraut? They were the first band I ever saw on MTV.

I wish I could find a good copy of Ozzy doing Mississippi Queen...definately not one of his better days...
