Glad to hear this version of "Love's in Need", but it's also reminding me that I wasn't able to get tickets to see Stevie do "Songs in the Key of Life" at MSG tonight. The after-market markup is much too rich for my blood.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:02am
Sem Chumbo:

I believe you, Joe. The Family were consummate technicians of the pop oeuvre, helped a great deal by cultural policy of the time which insisted on one third of everything we heard on our airwaves was someway Canadian. Social engineering, I guess.
On another matter, my T-shirts arrived in perfect condition, even the NSA tracking device was in tiptop shape:-)
