No, but move your Percy Faith "Black Magic Woman" album in the funk section.

Columbia's annual conventions were held in a different city each year, at a cost--I was told--of a million dollars (not a lot of money today, but 35-40 years ago. They always included some of the label's top acts, as well as newly signed individuals and groups. As I recall, they were 3-day affairs, culminating in a banquet with orchestra and star entertainment.

The one that I attended was up in NYC....you skipped that one? Must have been 1980 because The Romantics were one of the top acts.....Captain Sensible was also there. Yes, it was a 3-day deal.
