I'm a fairly knowledgeable power pop fan with an eye towards the
music's history. I'm not sure I could name three Blue Ash songs other
than "Abracadabra," and frankly, I tend to think of the Records'
version first, because that was the one I first heard. I'm not saying
they're not worthy or anything, but I'm with Bill: I wouldn't think of
them as anywhere close to a Top 25 act.
