Re: The Human Thing (was re:WICE)

Was that when Dick Summer did his "Lovin' Touch" show that sent me spinning
the dial to The Big 68?  I've heard a tape snippet where even Ron Robin had
taken on a mellow, Dick-Summer-Sound.  Weird!

Does anyone have any tapes of "The Lovin' Touch?"  It would be a kick to
hear it again.
