Email me back if you still need these and we'll talk. :) Hey Retro Addict – it's been ten months since you posted this, but I have an excellent, remastered copy of Say Hello To Ronnie and a version of Dancing Like Lovers.

I'm a big fan of Nick's work with the '70 Philly band The American Dream. Their lone album was produced by Todd Rundgren and features several power pop gems that would appeal to fans of Badfinger, Christie and The Marmalade. The album also featured “My Babe,” which Nick and Foghat would later redo for their classic “Fool For The City” album.

Here are a few “heads up” entries for future Bottom Feeders posts. These are either impossible to find online or are only available in inferior quality:

1. Nielsen/Pearson – “The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore” – 1981 – westcoast AOR remake of the 60's Walker Brothers hit that for some reason didn't appear on an album.
2. Mary MacGregor – “Dancin' Like Lovers” – 1980 – her last chart entry and follow-up release to her top 40 hit “Good Friend” from the “Meatballs” soundtrack. The only decent quality file I have ever found on this was unfortunately in mono.
3. Janey Street – “Say Hello To Ronnie” – 1984 – supposedly available on a “Heard It On The Radio” compilation.

If anyone can help me out on any of the above 5, then please contact me; I have plenty to trade!

Another one that will be tough for a lot of 80's lovers is Shot In The Dark's “Playing With Lightning” from 1981. They were Al Stewart's backing band on his “24 Carrots(the album with “Midnight Rocks”)” and “Indian Summer” releases. It took me quite a while, but I finally tracked it down!

Looking forward to all of the future entries!

I'm pretty sure that (at least up to that time anyway) this song may have been one of longest charting songs that failed to make the top 40.
