    Guilty... "Orleans" is on the shelf... Cut out bin buy (I believe). Not the worst thing on the shelf...

    "Tino", el numero uno, has been seen around here in a thread before. We discovered it was actually Russman's stage name when he a teen.
    More later,

    Nice job, Tour, I've just now experienced both pride (for your difficult admission) and embarrassment at the same time. :p

    LOL.... you should be sitting where I am...

    Was scratching my head as to what would have have attrac... ummm... make that, drawn me to that buy despite that cover.

    Answer, they had a couple hits: "Still the One" and "Dance with Me" (although neither is on this album). Sorta Kansas-ish as I remember.

    Interesting link, good for a few laughs.
    I can honestly say I have never even heard of a single one of those groups/singers. The worst, by far, is the "Back to the ****" cover. It's just wrong, so very, very wrong.
