I did not know that Cuba Gooding Sr was the lead singer in Main Ingredient, which I also just learned is the name of the band. I saw in the comments that this song is in The Joker.
Heard this on some oldies channel a while back and I’ve had it in my head for a while. A shame the singer was killed at the end of the song…he could have had some more hits. 
the werks, covering eminence front.
^Haven’t heard them doing that one. Sounds awesome. Seen them a few times. Really good group of dudes.
This is the height of 80’s cheese but, damn, this song gets me going. Such fun. I’m probably still in love with Patty Smyth.
I’ve been spinning thru lesser-known Black Sabbath albums. There sure are a lot, I count like 20 studio albums, you could count more or less than that depending what you include. They have two different collections that each have a pair of new songs. Then there’s the Dio fronted reunion album that they couldn’t call Black Sabbath legally, but I count that puppy.
Anyway I’m not an enormous fan of these guys, but certainly are interesting enough, and legend enough, to merit a listen sometimes.
Right now I’ve just got thru a not very attentive listen thru Mob Rules, and I’m doing the same for Born Again. Listened to Headless Cross the other night, similarly not paying actual attention.

Of course you count it. Dio is Lord of darkness.
“…from Fort Worth to Amarillo.”
The Texas portion of my life adventure began just south of Amarillo. Now I’m sitting near Fort Worth posting on the Oh Kee Pa.
Do you know what that means?
Nothing
Deep Purple and Moody Blues
I have never listened to either band until a couple months ago. I’m blown away over here.
Recommend Moody Blues entire catalog haha, freaking amazeballz band. Especially into them; I’ve sought out vinyl copies and everything. I even almost have them all.
Deep Purple’s newest album comes with a making-of DVD that I just finished watching. I’d check that out if you’re curious about later-day Deep Purple. If you only like the sweet spot, Machine Head and Who Do We Think We Are, and the debut album Shades of Deep Purple have my vote. Or like, recommendation I guess I mean.
I’m late to these parties holy smokes.
I’ve been a Moody Blues hypeman for a while. Their first six/seven albums are really top-notch work. Love how the albums all feel like they flow into each other…made for listening to them all at once and not flipping around tunes.
I’m less into Deep Purple but heard Perfect Strangers on the radio the other day. What a riff.
Paul Simon: Stranger to Stranger CD - received as a gift, so I didn’t seek it out, but it’s been worthwhile.
Moody Blues: most of the catalog on rotation right now

Spun Ozzy’s new album at too-low-to-really-hear volume
I was just taking some bacon out of the freezer and I noticed that the package says “No Sugar”. This INSTANTLY began playing inside my head:
Oh no…should this post be in the “bacon thread”?
The new Fiona Apple is greatness, per usual.
