    Ooh, yeah, I know some of those songs! I really like "When You're In Love with a Beautiful Woman."

    Mike - that video is a hoot but oh my gosh, how out of it are they??? The guitarist looks like he might fall over at any minute!

    I think that's just their style Soda. They remind me a bit of Paul Revere and the Raiders....clowns. I know both groups really ham it up when performing. But they do come across as whacked don't they!

    Well, I went to Wikipedia to see what their photo on the cover of Rolling Stone looked like - and it is a caricature instead of a real photo! Oh well, better than nothing!

    But I also discovered Shel Silverstein was in that band! I recognized the name because one of my favorite books when I was a kid was Where the Sidewalk Ends. I had no idea!

    Welcome from me too, Jonathan. Glad you found us! It's always great to meet another fan of the greatest american band!

    I hadn't thought or heard of those songs by Dr. Hook forever!

    This is what I love about forums. I introduce myself and mention a band like Dr Hook and I have the whole board talking about them.

    Another band I love are the Black Eyed Peas. Their music videos are just great.

    Thanks for the warm welcome you guys and gals.

    Not particularly fond of BEP but I must say that I am mesmerized by Taboo. If I happen upon a video or performance of theirs, I can't seem to take my eyes off of him for some reason.

    Janis really was incomparable... unprecedented and unparalleled. It's great to encounter another Cash fan! I was listening to "One Piece at a Time" this morning. Welcome to the board!
