This album is my least favourite by them in probably 10 years... Hung at Heart, Chinese Fountain, City Club and Casual Acquaintances was an amazing run of four in a row, so hard to expect 5 good albums in a row as so few bands have done that.

But really love this song.

In my estimation he is a massively underrated lyricist. Hardly ever gets talked about vs their "sound" or "vibe". But as a lover of language often very beautiful, true, emotional and well structured.

It had been years since I had heard this cut that a local rock station had put on the radar:

Dead Ghosts- "Roky Says" Combo of 21st rock?? plus 60s garage band chord progressions [ more or less] . Heck they even have the a cover of the Keggs "Girl". Which is the B side of the Keggs record. Perhaps the most sought after 45 rpm of all time. Perhaps 10 are known to exist except bootleg 45s which about 2000 exist. The A side was covered by the Gories ' "To Find Out". Virtually all the stories about the Keggs are unfounded since I have emailed two of the members from Facebook and they just laughed.

"Beware" a song by gosh I forgot.....[garage band ] has a 45, only one copy known to exist. Sold for $350,000.00. It is on last Back From The Grave double album/CD Vol 9/10. The song is about killing his girlfriend for cheating.....ok....at least implied. Organ work is pretty good on this....

I listen to mostly rock and jazz in the car. Though I am known to crank up the Stones/Yardbirds/Cream/Yes to absurd volumes at home with my rig, but mostly classical from 14th century Ars Nova to late 20th century atonal/multitonal/12 tone music late into the night. Which on this site, nobody cares.
