Another for The Association — opening track of the group’s debut album, "And Then ... Along Comes The Association," Terry Kirkman wrote the song and sang lead vocal.

Denny Laine co-founded two major rock bands: the Moody Blues and Wings. Laine was a constant member of Wings for their entire run from 1971 to 1981, playing guitar, bass, keyboards, singing backing and lead vocals, and co-writing songs with Paul McCartney.
Jeff Beck. I assume the short narration at the beginning is Clapton.
If Stevie Wonder asks you to play on one of his songs, you might be good.

David LaFlamme. A San Francisco band that actually made a few appearances at Vet's auditorium in the 70's.
Jeff Beck's Going Down was love at first hearing.
Huey "Piano" Smith's Don't You Just Know It just had that swagger.
Astrud Gilberto built a beautiful mind-picture with The Girl From Ipanema

Some radio stations wouldn't play April Steven's Teach Me Tiger

We’re in day 2, so the limit-of-one-per-artist-per-post may be relaxed a bit.
“Executive/Co-Host Decision.”
A few more from Shane MacGowan.
MacGowan’s singing isn’t everyone’s cup of tea (or bottle or whiskey), but he was a helluva lyricist and storyteller.
It's essential to give credit to members of The Pogues musicianship for providing shape for his songwriting -- and several members contributed songwriting and lead vocals for the group along the way.
A few notable tracks, including some lyrics.
"If I should fall from grace with God where no doctor can relieve me / If I'm buried in the sod but the angels won't receive me / Let me go, boys, let me go, boys / Let me go down in the mud, where the rivers all run dry."
This song laments “urban renewal,” in a sense, nostalgia for a dog track that’s turned into parking space.
“And the car park’s going up / And they're pulling down the pubs / And it's just another bloody rainy day.” // “And the hare upon the wire, has been burnt upon your pyre / Like the black dog that once raced out from trap two.”
Shane MacGowan and the Popes
“My daddy was a sinner / But my mother was a saintly person / But I ruined my life by drinking / Bad wives, taking pills and cursing’”

Also -- did someone already post this for Gary Wright?
If so, I see no crime in re-posting.

Additional tracks from Tom Verlaine.
From “Adventure,” Television’s second album ... similar to opening cut of band's debut LP, "Marquee Moon," but a little more production-sheen.
A song from Verlaine's solo debut ... has similarity to structure of “Marquee Moon” (the song)
From “Dreamtime” (1981)
