Yeah, some good points made here. I have to say though that airplay in the states has to be a huge factor in the GW latter years and Burton's solo career. (let's not forget the late 70's was the big disco FAD era) #2- I think radio tried to stuff Burton in the "ballad only" mode. If it's not played in one city and not in another, how can it do well on the national charts? (these days it helps to have play on VH1 or MTv)

How many of you have heard UCAA on US radio? Me- never. didn't evan know it existed til I was checking out a webtv unit in Sears in Aug 98.

Have to agree here. How many of you have requested BC music to be played in your towns and find out that the radio stations only have GW music, and nothing afterwards? And I'm not just talking about young DJ's, but older, more experienced people who ought to know.
