Drat, now I've got a song about Alabama running through my brain
and I'm darned if I can remember who sung it or enough of the
lyrics to do a google!!!!

Nah, it's not 'Oh Susannah' - it's a modern song. I keep wondering
if it's Steely Dan or some group like that -it's got a very nasal
'Alabam' repeat refrain in it. Not 'Alabama', but 'Alabam'.

Drat, it'd disappeared overnight but now I've got it running round in
my head again!


Niel Young?

Yep that's it, I said "America" not correct.



But closer in style than country music. Now I've got "Eagle Rock"
running in my brain. Somehow Daddy Cool's Eagle Rock goes along with
the beach. I'm sure that beign the only other Aussie here you'll be the
only person here who understand the reference though :-))
