My pal Jason Rowan -- the king of cocktails who was just featured in The New York Times -- wrote to tell me he was more a fan of Rupert Holmes' "Answering Machine" than personal-ad anthem "Escape (The Pina Colada Song)". I'd completely forgotten about that one, but I had to laugh at how Holmes chose to write about two new "fads" of the era. Couldn't help but wonder if I'd missed his other big single, "Microwave to Your Heart."Friday, August 27, 2010
