Just to comment on a few that I missed over the last couple of days :

Asia - sorry, I know nothing about them and will not be investigating further.

ZZ Top - again not my thing but actually Rough Boy does sound listenable. It won't be going onto any of my playlists though.

Wuthering Heights - just no!

Argent - Dance in the Smoke. Yes, nice track @Newportnobby .

I have 'Hold your head up' on 45, but prefer this track off the CBS sampler album 'Fill your head with rock'

I wondered what on earth that was in the foreground at first glance. I definitely had to look twice  8)

I seem to have missed a couple of posts!

Oh dear Asia was never the sum of its parts, very AOR.

Wuthering Heights, nothing like Kate Bush!

ZZ Top certainly had their moments - "Gimme All Your Loving".

Now I quite like "Hold Your Head Up", saw them at Brunel University.

Love the way the bass player has a combo guitar and never uses it. Is that so he can pretend he's also a musician  :D

Argent - '72

Another blast from the past - this time 1972.

I saw Argent a couple of times and they always played this but it's not one of my favourites I'm afraid.

Nevertheless, everyone will know it :

You will recognise the show presenter too.

Huge difference between 'before' and 'after. How long d'you think the 'after' will last? ;)

@Newportnobby

Wired, right side up and back in its rack position.
At least this one is already ballasted, so it should last quite a while.  :)
It might even get some buildings and landscaping.

Besides, I think the board has had enough reconstructions.
