Bit too slick for me this...
Hope your concept works.
Good luck!

Thanks for being the first and only commenter to date! And thanks for the link back too. Maybe you'll get this project on the map...

Based on your comment, the mission for tomorrow is something less slick. Hmmmm? Looks like we've got just the thing...

Great first choice! I think most people will only be cursorily familar with Emitt Rhodes because Wes Anderson used his song "Lullaby" in The Royal Tenenbaums. I'll link to you here shortly.

I really need to get around to listening to more stuff like this... Any recommendations?

Well, get all the Big Star albums if you don't have those already. That's a starter.
