Hardrock, Coco and Joe

If you grew up in the Chicago metropolitan area during the 1960s or early '70s, this priceless video needs absolutely no explanation whatsoever. The rest of you, sadly, will probably wonder what all the excitement is about.

For the nostalgically-inclined such as myself, this woman's entire site is well worth a few minutes of your time. As it turns out, I went to high school with her, but in all honesty I don't remember her at all. (Sorry, Lisa!)
