here's a trivia question for ya (this didn't come from the radio - i know a couple of the folks involved)

when carly simon recorded your so vain, there was a different guy in the studio to do background vocals. after seeing her and mick talk when he popped in to say hi, he bowed out, saying that they had way more chemistry (which would make sense, since mick and carly were a prior couple).

who is he? don't cheat now...

Back to Bob Seger. What that Thelma Hopkins or the other Dawn doing the backup singing?

I just realized, nobody answered the #2 post trivia -- some kinda DJ's you lot are...


Anyway, it was Harry Nilsson who bowed out, and let just Mick and Carly sing together
