Those b@st@rds ripped off too many kids to count over the years. We should demand reparations.

Peter Allen was wonderfully talented. I saw his one-man show on Broadway, very good fun.
Meanwhile back in Bev Hills, a tv writer friend was trying to help Linda Lovelace go straight. He'd written a legit play for her to be presented in Las Vegas and was giving her acting lessons in his garage. Meanwhile, in his house, we had a serious visiting acting coach from London giving private lessons to children of the wealthy. He was ultra British proper-stuffy, quite the contrast to Ms Lovelace, whom he secretly admired. It was a hoot.
Gifts for the gullible- pet rocks, mood rings, sea monkeys
Wow. And I thought MY head was stuffed with a lot of Trivial Pursuit junk, LOL! I bow to your superior knowledge. :)
Just don't lump Tull in with other sh***y prog rock!
I remember the Hudson Bros. They stunk!
Sticky?
Peter Allen was essentially Liberace for the disco era. No wonder Liza married him (even though she was doing the mattress mambo with Martin Scorsese on the side).
Pink Floyd is too depressing. Though I LOVE the Animals album still!
Who is that in post 513?
Ian Anderson was one scary and cool dude. Running around looking like a crackhead and playing a flute.

Isn't that the Six Degrees of Cher Game?
Cyborg could win a "best of the 20th century creations", IMO.
He never could keep a secret.
LOL!
I am proud to announce that I am part of the 20% who did not sleep with Warren in the 70's. (He's so vain, doncha know ...)
I had Cher if I wanted her. I just figured there's no way of satisfying her after she slept with Sonny!
I stand corrected. Her greatness should not be contained to any one decade.
ahhhh, but "fast times" was 1982
