Sometimes I think I’m the only one who knew about this band. Loved them, and not just for their “hit” single. I have a couple of their albums and certainly need to pick up the others. I’ll be starting with this one.
Daniel, you need ALL of them…pronto. It’s criminal that most people judged them on that one song / one album…Moe Berg is a brilliant songwriter.
