A laid back one. Phil's bass and Billy in the groove.

Everyone is on for this one. Great vocals, even by Donna. Why isn't this getting any love?

Played faster, it sounds more upbeat and not so wistful. I like it.

Wah-wah reggae. Not a big fan of this tune, as it usually gets monotonous, but this would be my choice as #1.

Needs more love. I like these tighter ones. I'm not a big fan of two drummers, but this tune benefits. Ending a bit abrupt, though. It occurs to me that they could easily have segued into La Bamba. It must be the percussion.
