Quite a number of big names on it too, looking at the episode guide. I guess the closest US equivalent would be Shindig or Hullaballoo, but they didn't last nearly as long. Are there ever any reruns on at all? I'd love to see it. |

248. Funny. When you said that, I got a mental image of you putting on the cd and it keeps skipping so you have a hard time playing it.
244. Not familiar with Beat Club. Is it MTV, or a Canadian equivalent or what?
243. I have a picture sleeve of THIS one. 248. LOL |

No reuns in North America except what Adam mentioned that I'm aware of unless maybe on a cable network . Rhino's Super Hits The 70's DVD contains footage of the show . I've also downloaded the odd clip off the internet. |

Little Bit O Soul - Great tune, always loved it
Angel In Your Arms - Never really liked it.
Sometimes When We Touch - Another one I never really liked
What Is Love - Know Beep Beep, not this one
Wolverton Mountain - Don't hear it much anymore, great song
You Are the Sunshine of My Life - One of my Stevie favorites
Atlantis - It does get redundant towards the end, by a great song from Donovan
Roses Are Red - Not a Bobby Vinton fan, good song
Love Has Finally Come My Way - I familiar with some of Faron Young's songs, but not this one.
Rubber Ball - Fun early 60s song.

Loved your comments. Unfortunately, there's only one song on here that I know, and that would be #248 - Sometimes When We Touch. I love the use of this song in the movie Superstar. It's so hilarious. And a guilty pleasure song for me too.

It may not be an album vs a 45 version. I'm not sure. It just may be a radio-edited 45 vs a "regular 45, I can't remember. But the verse that is omitted is: "At times I think we're drifters Still searching for a friend A brother or a sister But then the passion flares again" No bells ringing--it is the "45" version on "Nice Day" #21. |

244. Yeah, because of the spoken part. I heard once that "Ringo" by Lorne Greene was considered the original rap song.  Hmmm...I thought that was Big Bad John by Jimmy Dean LOL... |
