Outstanding choices! I always thought "When I Look In Your Eyes" (which actually got some pretty decent airplay on Chicago's WLUP in the late winter/spring of 1980) was like the cooler but underappreciated sibling of "What I Like About You".
Mike Skill of The Romantics has lived in the Portland area for years. I met him via his son, who was in several of my classes. I remember one particularly funny parent/teacher conference when, after we talked about how his son was doing in my classes, Mike and I chatted endlessly about the MC5. The other parents waiting to see me weren't as impressed and quickly grew impatient! Woops...
Paul Stanley and Richard Carpenter? Hell yes.
Reading this sent me back to those incredible Baby Lemonade records of the late '90s. Thank you Mike!
Around The Dial is a gem! The riffs are so damn catchy.

Thanks, Dan! I'm always stoked when Mike stops by RTL.
