THE WEEKEND STARTS HERE: ...with SQUEEZE! Despite a new LP, some of you whippersnappers may never heard of Difford, Tilbrook & Co., who previously reeled of stellar string of pop gems, including "Take Me I'm Yours", "Cool for Cats", "Up the Junction", "Goodbye Girl," "Another Nail in My Heart", "Pulling Mussels (From the Shell)", "If I Didn't Love You", and the one most people know -- even if they don't know it's Squeeze -- "Tempted", which features transient member Paul Carrack on vox and keys.

He was 79. A BABY RHINO charges a Wildebeest. OTTER vs APE: Who You Got? A BABY GIRAFFE's first steps.
