My Italian grandmother said it the best: “Putana! Dishonesta! Disgraziata!”
And she was talking about Monica Lewinsky when she said that (my grandma ADORED Bill Clinton), but the same words can refer to The Material Girl...

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame sells out.Don't be so hard on them. When they built the R&R HoF, rock was a viable music genre. It's all but dead today, so the pool of inductees is shrinking yearly. I expect my teenage garage band will be inducted by 2030.

As a die-hard Ed Head I know too much about him. That song was nominated for a grammy in the best rock vocal performance category, 1986. Money lost to Palmer’s addicted to love. If the song had been proberly placed in the duets category He and Spector would have won. At least she got into the Hall with the ronnettes last year and thanked the Money Man in her speech.
To: mainerforglobalwarming
Yes, Ed is so underrated. He is a great rocker.
I loved his special guest appearance on “King of Queens” a few years back.

Money’s voice is mediocre at best, his lyrics are not going to make anyone forget about Dylan. But he had a knack for recording catchy songs. And his problem over the past 15 years is not that he hasn’t recored some great stuff, it’s that radio has chosen to ignore it. Fire and Water, Another Nice Day in L.A., Just No givin up, Broken Down Chevy are as good as anything he’s ever put out. Oh well, at least he still has the oldies circuit to tour on.

Yes, there’s always those 1980’s reunion tours with REO Speedwagon, Styx, Pat Benatar, etc.
Where in Maine do you live? I know the coastline well... I have friends in Falmouth and Topsham. I went to college in NH, at Plymouth State (back in the mid-80’s).
