They DID play Lido into the ground, but I don't think I could ever grow tired of 'Lowdown'. Likewise, 'Harbor Lights' is an underappreciated masterpiece off of this album and while I'm in the mood for heaping praise on the Boz, 'It's Over' and 'Georgia' are none too shabby, either.

My brother & sister had that record when I was little and I was wondering when somebody was gonna give a shout-out to him. You did, hotdog.

Glad I outgrew that lil' phase! Wish some of my friends had.

I love this track too. It reminds me of summers at the beach when I was little, tuning in to the one station that came in clearly on the night air. I've got it on multiple playlists on the iPod.
