Quick Question...
I would like to preface this by admitting that yes, I am a bit of a geek for Barry Manilow. That being said, I was more than a little perplexed by the tape found in Amy's car: "Tropical Nights" by Barry Manilow, an album that I didn't even know existed! However, after doing some research, I discovered that Manilow does not even have a song with this title, let alone an entire album. After breathing a sigh of relief that I was not missing an integral part of Manilow's extensive canon, I began to wonder why Chris Ware made this error. It would be foolish of me to say that it was unintentional, because I think we all know that nothing in "Jimmy Corrigan" is unintentional. I really have no answer to this question, and was wondering if any of you had any thoughts about this.

Tropical Nights is actually an album Liza Minnelli released in the late 70s. If I'm not mistaken Barry Manilow was a guest on the title track.
