    I was going to make this a poll, but due to the plethora of choices, I decided against it...

    Thank you A-Train. I was going to create a poll to ask everyone what their favorite Muddy Waters song was, but then I realized I would have to explain to 85% of the posters here who Muddy Waters is!:D

    I like "Shoeless with Overalls" on their obscure pre-first album EP, "Smelly Accordian Grips"

    That's right! It was a one-hit wonder for <i>two</i> bands!

    So, any of you in a band, don't cover this song on an album. It might be the kiss of death. :)

    Come on Eileen is a classic, great tune.

    Anyone catch the "Where are They Now" about them? Scary.

    Dexy put out a solo effort....not the scary part.... and in the video he showed his love of wearing dresses. Not, you know, manly dresses (do those exist?) but like silk flower summer dresses with heels.
