I have the album. I saw them live in Iowa City in 1984! They were great.

You're not kidding. A great song. One of my all-time favorites. I went to a jam and, between 6 people we managed to remember all the words!

Thanks dad, for giving me such good music to listen.

I used to sing this song when I was younger. Yay older brothers!
Thanks for posting this!

Personally, I've always thought a half-acre of Brenda would be more than enough for me!

[@TM1Alan]

Damn I love that song!

Best old-time band playing anywhere, ever - the Original Blurs have never been matched. (Pity Bill Hicks wasn't fiddling, oh well).

[@thendrjazz]

Bill Hicks has now passed away as well
