Glad to see lizzy represented. Can't much stand the hair music in the rest of his catalog.

Love Potion #9 is at the beginning of the live video I posted above. I cued up the second song, which I like a whole lot more

Starting to listen now. 2 videos down. Good shit.
Even the gheyish 80's vibe it has. The first one could be a Formal Black tune. Fitting...
