  Acoustic like lots of guitar and/or synthesizer? Folksy like Dobie Gray (Drift Away) or Marvin Gay/Frankie Beverly or David Bowie like? I know others were mentioned, I am just trying to get the direction we should be thinking, a "more like". Patches by Clarence Carter, although I don't consider that acoustic? It is catchy.

  IDK if its what Rydawg is looking for but Patches is a cool song.

  Don't think so, I asked him on post #20 of this madness.

  I saw Poco. I didn't see any song listed. It sounds like Orleans' Dance w Me so I posted it.

  Understandable, but I occasionally post useful stuff. This was one of those rare occasions.

  He probably said that bcuz that video was likely shot in the early 80s.

  It is good. I'm still not positive it's what I heard before but I think so haha. I had no idea who sung it so this would make since.
• Sonofanump

  So "sunshine" starts with the letter "C"?

  "Shanty" still gets airplay, so maybe a 1 1/2 hit wonder? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6vyTM_qJAE
