Well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions
Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind
I tell them there's no hurry . . . I'm just sitting here doing time

The Dictators-. How about some more obscurity?  This is a hard rocking punk band, kind of in the vein of the Ramones.  According to their wiki page, only one of their albums charted, and charted at #193.  Surprised they didn't have more success, considering how big raw punk become with the almost instantaneous infusion of the Ramones and Sex Pistols.  Here is 3 that I remember that got air play back in the day.

Concert- Christopher Cross - February 12, 1981-  Part III of making a girl friend happy.  But I will have to admit, it was a pretty good concert to take a date to.  Pretty talented soft rock crooner , if you are really into that.  Career was a pretty much the proverbial flash in the pan.  Chart buster out the gate, and then fell off a cliff.

March 1981 List

1. Styx (No change)
2. Journey (No change)
3. Neil Young (No change)
4. Pat Benetar (No change)
5. Boston (+1)
6. Cars (-1)
7. Led Zeppelin (No change)
8. Fleetwood Mac (+1)

17. The Who (-4)
18. Kinks (-2)
19. REO Speedwagon (New)
20. Queen (No change)

REO Speedwagon- If you are a classic rock fan, I'd bet there is a pretty good probability that you have the 1980 Hi-Infidelity.  Album incredibly charted 3 Top 25 and one No. 1.  But to facts, REO actually went back to the early '70's.  Pretty much almost their 1st decade of existence, they were infamously the 2nd or 3rd act in concerts throughout the country.  They basically ran their career on one really good tune "Riding the Storm Out", along with a couple of middle  rocking bluesey tunes.  But their epitah is lined with the "Journey Effect". Get drunk on some short term pop-rock success.  After their moment in the sun in the early to mid '80's they rightfully fell out of view.

In spite my own disliking of giving overplayed hyped samples.....   Here is their signature tune that did hit No.1. Leave it to these guys to over cheese it. (sorry)

Good cheesy catchy hooks in 1981 do not make for a good listen in 2022.

Not a fan now for sure.
