Well done again, Hawk! I presume 4 is the limit, so here I go:
5. Quiet Riot, "Condition Critical"
7. Dexy's Midnight Runners/Save Ferris, "Come On Eileen"
8. Police, "Canary In A Coal Mine"
13. Peter Gabriel, "Come Talk To Me"
Hope these are correct, & I figure out more when the limit drops!
Your Pal,
Doc

Hawk, for #10 I think I might have the answer, but I know of three different artist for the
song title. If the song is right, I hope one of the artist is also correct.
#10...Caught In The Middle...Dio, or Yngwie Malmsteen, or DJ Jazzy Jeff?

All good guesses, but all wrong, I'm afraid.
#10- Think timepieces and $2.00 hookers.

#4. 'The Carpet Crawlers' - Genesis
HOW did I miss that? Guess it's what I get for being a Phil-era fan ::).
This is a long shot, but I'm trying...
is #1 Huey Lewis & The News, "Couple Days Off"?
And I think I have the last two...
6. Tommy James / Joan Jett, "Crimson & Clover"
10. Stevie Ray Vaughan, "Caught In The Crossfire"
Looking forward to the D's!
Your Pal,
Doc
