It's the week of Valentine's Day! What a fine reason for five more nuggets.
The Dropbox link comes first as usual. Then, the track list.

01 Greg Kihn Band, The Break Up Song
You've perhaps heard artists or song writers talk about the hook that was
crucial to the success of a particular hit. In the case of this one, it
seems to me that "The Break-up Song" would be nothing without
uh uh uh - uh uh uh uh uh.
The recording will likely do more justice to that hook than did your screen
reader.
02 Randy Meisner - Deep Inside My Heart
Randy Meisner was a member of Rick Nelson's Stone Canyon Band from 68 'til
70, and he did some session work for Linda Ronstadt after that. A founding
member of the Eagles, he was with them from 71 to 77, and wrote "Take it to
the Limit." After departing the Eagles, he became a founding member of Poco.
This was something of a hit for Meisner in the early 80s. I think the lady
singing back-up vocals was Kim Carnes.
03 The Everly Brothers -- I'm Not Angry
This was not an Everly Brothers single. It was instead on one of their early
LPs.
04 Gene Vincent and The Blue Caps, Say Mama
This first half of a contrast was released around Thanksgiving of 1958.
05 Tony Greco, say mama
This second half of our contrast was released around Thanksgiving, 1961.
Tony Greco was an artist from the Milwaukee area, who recorded it for a
regional label.
Next week, we'll usher in President's Day with five more nuggets. Please be
here if you can.
