Back on the Chain Gang" (The Pretenders) There are about three versions of this already in the archive, but none of them is quite right. This one's a little better; someone sent it to me last fall, and I recently cleaned it up because I wanted to play it. Unfortunately, this might still have mistakes; I can't check because I don't have the album. I'll have to see if I can get them to play it on the radio...
