The biggest crossover hit of the summer makes its way to the top of the 90.5 WERG charts, and we're all feeling a little tipsy :-) Mondo Cozmo enters the Top 10, and there's a new group called "Dexter and the Moonrocks" to sample. 35 years ago, we were dancin' and a-lovin' down at the Loveshack. Good memories and good sounds - both old and new!
