Little Steven's "Freak of the Week" tonite is Little Richard, and instead of something obvious, he played Richard's cover of "Brown Sugar", which is a new one on me -- he changes "How come you dance so good" to "...taste so good". DAY-um! Oh, and this is cute --as part of this tribute-to-Little Richard set, he's playing "Drag City." ROTFL!
TANC: I brought some garage-rock mix tapes that I made some 18 years ago to the gym today -- lots of Nuggets stuff and the like. So far Steven has played 3 songs from those tapes in his show -- and we're only 40 minutes in! ("Psychotic Reaction", "Bend Me Shape Me" and "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man".)
ETA: yet another new-to-me obscurity from Steven: Nancy Sinatra's cover of the Beatles' "Run For Your Life"!
