Proxy of Cairo to "Green Earrings" - though I confess it's one of my least favorite Dan songs.

"Beat on the Brat" is kind of what I had in mind when I called the Ramones a novelty act in a recent blog post.

NTM and certainly an ATBB: Paris, "Big Towne - 2061."  Sounds awfully Steve Millery.

Aha: Amazon.com informs me this is a power trio led by Bob Welch.  Now I hear it.
