    10. Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers - Modern Lovers
        This one was recorded in 1977 when the Modern Lovers still had Dave
        Robinson.  Album contains 'New England' 'Here Come the Martian
        Martians' and 'Abomidable Snowman in the Market' among others.
        But what I would give for a version of 'Roadrunner'. 

I wanted one too, so I asked for it the last time I was in the Virgin
Megastore in London.  The result was a single with two versions of the
song -- called "Roadrunner Once" and "Roadrunner Twice".  One of these
is produced by John Cale, and I believe both were on the original album.
