Well, I always though "Dr Music" sounded like "YMCA", but maybe that's just
me. But the real comparison point has to be _Rumours_, which, in spite of
disco, punk, and all the other things going on in 1977, was that year's big
hit album, and "doing a _Rumours_" was more or less the stated aim. Even the
title's pretty much the same!
