Sparks, I believe, was fronted by Jane Wiedlin, formerly of the Go-Gos.

Jane did a song (Cool Places) or two with them, but wasn't in the band.  When I saw them live a couple years ago in San Francisco she was in the audience--I think she had a Sparks fan club as a teenager.

Some very nice Christmas offerings here. I like them all, even the corny Slade number. I especially enjoy "Christmas Vacation", which, without looking it up- so I could  be wrong-, is by the Staples Singers. Very catchy, and very Christmassy. I liked the movie, too, come to think of it.

 

Moving on to New Year's Eve: I always try to play this on New Year's Eve, because of the optimism in the title. Plus, it's a great song, sung by a great singer.

Yup, old Johnny Cash deserves his legendary status.

 

Here's another "legend". It's very very hard to find original 60s Dylan on the internet, definitely not on Youtube. I finally found the version of the song I was looking for, but there's a slight problem - no visual, just a blank screen.

However, this is almost a good thing, since it means you have to pay attention purely to the music. And the music deserves your full attention (gawd, that sounds kind of pompous, doesn't it? But it does.)

 

Anyway, here's  a great song from "Blonde on Blonde", one of my favourite Bob Dylan albums. Fabulous marriage of music and lyrics.

Absolutely Sweet Marie.

Here you go, DGF. I hope this is the version you wanted:
