I have that tape, if you want. But I always thought that it was from the
spectrum in philly on Dec. 10th, '79. Ok trivial pursuit: When was
Kenny's birthday? Or did they sing it for a few shows? Just curious...
Anyway the version of Dance it away does sound like the makings of Cooks
county to me too. There are a lot of recurrent themes in Townshend's
guitar doodles. And I like em! I just got my double deck back so I owe
righard one first, but let me know if you want tape of this to enjoy
again! ****Happy Whoing! ---mike
