Who knows? "But she never lost her head/Even when she was givin' head" passed muster on radio in 1972. Don't ask me how... If it's the Murray Head song I'm thinking of, you'll have to blame Benny & Bjorn. They wrote the tune. Lyrics by the steadfast Tim Rice, of course. Did I mention Murray sung the part of Judas on the original JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR album? And yes, Scott puts SAY IT AIN'T SO at Number Eight for 1976, between Sneakers and the Damned, Andy "As surgeons keep their instruments and knives always at hand for cases requiring immediate treatment, so shouldst thou have thy thoughts ready to understand things divine and human, remembering in thy every act, even the smallest, how close is the bond that unites the two." - --Marcus Aurelius ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 8 Dec 2006 14:40:22 EST From: CertronC90@aol.com Subject: Re: [loud-fans] life's too short In a message dated 12/8/2006 2:12:27 P.M.

I can hear him complaining in that voice of his to the chief priests that he only got thirty pieces of silver and not forty for betraying Jesus (and no, I'm not being anti-Semitic, just observant of Judas' character matched with Head's grating voice). I didn't know that about JCS. I used to listen to that as a little kid (even though I wasn't supposed to, but my mom didn't know because I had headphones on, and you shouldn't leave something forbidden in the house with a five-year-old). My parents had an 8-track tape store (imagine a record store that only sold 8-tracks!) and that was a double pack 8-track. They were blue plastic. I remember that because no other 8-tracks we had in the house were blue, and that's my favorite color. God, memory is a weird thing. - --Mark ------------------------------ End of loud-fans-digest V6 #249 *******************************
