Both have their feet squarely on the ground. Hillman arguably has had the more varied and interesting career—SHF, Desert Rose Band, Rice Rice Hillman and Pederson—amazing live band, and so on. One of the greats and relatively unsung. [ Reply ]

I guess they figured AM listeners wouldn't notice. Perhaps the song was satire from its inception, never intended to be well crafted on purpose. That's how I always took it. Still a good song. 9 [ Reply ]
