No idea who's doing this "Everyday Sunshine" thing. But I'm kinda liking it. VHM.
I had no idea either, but it's Fishbone.  Good tune and group!  Never heard 'em before.

Sly and the family bone, eh?

Fishbone - a band that my cousin in LA loved.  Don't think it's a NorCal thing.

I remember their '80s stuff ("Party At Ground Zero", etc) getting airplay in NY but this one is NTM.

indeed, pioneers of the "black rock" boomlet that included Living Colour.

VHM Green Eggs and Jesse.

BOS2 and proxy of Gaz Jellyfish, tho' they're rather frequent early-'90s fliers too.

Gonna give this Jellyfish tune a VHM.  Is it verging on Katrina territory, yet?

I still don't get why Jellyfish weren't huge.  They hardly made a blip on my consciousness then, but now I wish I'd been paying attention.

7 appearances for this song alone in the Morey era --plus multiple plays of other tunes of theirs. And who knows how many in the AL nearly-2-years.

WOS2 Tim Allen.

WOS3 Spin Doctors, which belongs in '92, methinks.

ETA: OK, the LP was released in Aug '91 but really didn't get airplay until the following year, iirc.

Lawd have mercy -- we are SAVED!  Truly his last great single, and another for the "imitation Stones riffs" set. uber-BOS3, VHM Slash.

He gave his baby a Saturday bang? WTF?

same here.  my SO was into them back then, but I was clueless.  

btw, Tim Allen did time for drug possession back in the late 70s.


On October 2, 1978, Allen was arrested in the Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport for possession of over 650 g (1.4 lb) of cocaine. He subsequently pleaded guilty to drug trafficking charges, and provided the names of other dealers in exchange for a sentence of three to seven years rather than a possible life imprisonment. He was paroled on June 12, 1981 after serving 2 years and 4 months in a Federal Correctional Institution in Sandstone, Minnesota.[18][19][20] Allen had the Federal Bureau of Prisons Register # 04276-040.[21]


BOS to MJ just because, but this simple riff sounds like something Janet would record.

Dude! it's Slash!  I'd love for the Stones to do a covers album of all the "imitation Stones" songs,

OMFG!!! "Do the Bartman"!! I'm gobsmacked.  BOS4

Swellegant's been bribing AL again!
