I can't help but hear the same percussion sequence as The Who's Eminence Front.

Had to stop what I was doing to check out who this is. It'll start at a 7 with a very easy slide up.

Mercer's singing at the end is my favorite part of the song... |

Wish it would have been.
II met her in a poolroom
Her name I didn't catch
She looked like something special
The kind who'd understand
The room was almost spinning
She pulled another smile
She had the grace like pleasure
She had a certain style
Why don't we hear any Squeeze on RP? We do need more Squeeze here. Bill occasionally plays "Take Me I'm Yours" but not much else. Would love to hear "Slap and Tickle". |

Yet another song & artist to listen for! And, whoah, ozzie1313! Steve Forbert! I had totally forgotten how much his early stuff kept turnin'
on my table back in the day! Thanks for the reminder. Maybe someone who's following this thread could upload some Steve!

Steve Forbert clones with a Clash add-on so as not to be complete imitators.

I missed the boat with Modest Mouse. The first song of theirs I'd ever heard was Float On which got so much commercial airplay that I got really sick of it. I just have not gotten into them since. This song is ok, but there is just something about them as a group that I just can't get into.
