Yeah, they never got much attention when they were together, and even less afterwards, but there was some real talent there. I only found out about them about a year ago myself, and I thought I knew 70’s music pretty well.

Heard this in a commercial a few minutes ago. Oh, to be in fourth grade again!
I love Gal Costa. This one starts out slow but ends on a high note:
I’ma whip a little classical your way:
Friday night, how about a Night on The Town (With Snow White)?
This one’s been knockin’ around in my head for a while.
