    A band with only a couple big hits. This is their second one I think.

    25 cents + FLV / locate a different idiot = [band/song]

    I bet this isn't the Music History you're referring too is it?

    August 18, 1979: Chic’s “Good Times” hits #1 on the U.S. pop charts

    No, but thanks for this bit of nostalgia

    It has to be The Police, but I'm lost on the song.

    so right, @deckerp ...
    and so close

    HINT TIME

    Paddy Wagoners / drinks (or an other term for alcoholic mixers) at the Bazawar (or any other "sphere" where "raw textiles" or other "physical tradecraft" can be found)

    I had thought this might be the one.

    Correct!..
    For those wondering about the historical significance, that date, 40yrs ago Aug 18, the band performed together as a trio for the first time publically.

    To commemorate that, on this Solar Eclipse day on our Northwest Hemisphere I slip this track on the turntable and to inspire @deckerP (you're up, mate!)

    I should try to work in something for Bonnie Tyler and Total Eclipse Of The Heart, but I won't.

    Instead, I'll dedicate this song to my wife on our anniversary.

    Stealers Wheel - Joe Egan / Multiple 24 hour periods + Away + Direction of gravity's tug = [artist / song]
